I see some failures in the gdb.mi/mi-stack.exp test. The test runs to
the callee4 function:
int callee4 (void)
{
int A=1;
int B=2;
int C;
int D[3] = {0, 1, 2};
C = A + B;
return 0;
}
and expects to be stopped at the A=1 line. However, when gcc generates
some stack protection code, it will stop at the { instead, as shown by
this disassembly (after I did "break callee4" and "run"):
(gdb) disassemble /s

The rest of the test relies on execution stopping on the A=1, so many things

When a 64-bits (x86-64) gdbarch is created, it is first born as a
32-bits gdbarch in i386_gdbarch_init. The call gdbarch_init_osabi will
call the handler register for the selected (arch, osabi) pair, such as
amd64_linux_init_abi. The various amd64 handlers call amd64_init_abi,
which turns the gdbarch into a 64-bits one.
When selecting the i386:x86-64 architecture with no osabi, no such
handler is ever called, so the gdbarch stays (wrongfully) a 32-bits one.
My first idea was to manually call amd64_init_abi & al in
i386_gdbarch_init when the osabi is GDB_OSABI_NONE. However, this
doesn't work in a build of GDB where i386 is included as a target but
not amd64. My next option (implemented in this patch), is to allow
registering handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE. I added two such handlers in
amd64-tdep.c, so now it works the same as for the "normal" osabis. It
required re-ordering things in gdbarch_init_osabi to allow running
handlers for GDB_OSABI_NONE.
Without this patch applied (but with the previous one*) :
(gdb) set osabi none
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
(gdb) p sizeof(void*)
$1 = 4
and now:
(gdb) set osabi none
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
The target architecture is assumed to be i386:x86-64
(gdb) p sizeof(void*)
$1 = 8
* Before the previous patch, which fixed "set osabi none", this bug was
hidden because we didn't actually try to generate a gdbarch for no
osabi, it would always fall back on Linux. Generating the gdbarch for
amd64/linux did work.

I was looking for a way to reproduce easily PR 22979 by doing this:
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
(gdb) set osabi none
However, I noticed that even though I did "set osabi none", the gdbarch
gdb created was for Linux:
(gdb) set debug arch 1
(gdb) set architecture i386:x86-64
...
(gdb) set osabi none
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.bfd_arch_info i386:x86-64
gdbarch_find_by_info: info.byte_order 1 (little)

gdbarch_find_by_info: info.tdep_info 0x0

selected
gdbarch_update_p: Architecture 0x1e6fd30 (i386:x86-64) unchanged
This is because the value GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN has an unclear role,
sometimes meaning "no osabi" and sometimes "please selected
automatically". Doing "set osabi none" sets the requested osabi to
GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN, in which case gdbarch_info_fill overrides it with a
value from the target description, or the built-in default osabi. This
means that it's impossible to force GDB not to use an osabi with "set
osabi". Since my GDB's built-in default osabi is Linux, it always falls
back to GDB_OSABI_LINUX.
To fix it, I introduced GDB_OSABI_NONE, which really means "I don't want
any osabi". GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN can then be used only for "not set yet,
please auto-detect". GDB_OSABI_UNINITIALIZED now seems unnecessary
since it overlaps with GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN, so I think it can be removed
and gdbarch_info::osabi can be initialized to GDB_OSABI_UNKNOWN.

The original problem was fixed (see related PR 22242). But using a typedef
as the declared type for a static member variable, as commented in this PR,
is still causing gdb to get into infinite loop when printing the static
member's value. This problem can be reproduced as follows:
% cat t.cc
class A {
typedef A type;
public:
bool operator==(const type& other) { return true; }
static const type INSTANCE;
};
const A A::INSTANCE;
int main() {
A a;
if (a == A::INSTANCE) {
return -1;
}
return 0;
}
% g++ -g t.cc
% gdb -ex "start" -ex "p a" a.out
The fix is rather trivial - in cp_print_static_field(), should call
check_typedef() to get the static member's real type and use it to
check whether it's a struct or an array.
As Simon suggested, I've added a new test case to the testsuite
and am passing the original type, not the real type, as argument
to both cp_print_value_fields() and val_print().
Re-tested on both aarch64-linux-gnu and amd64-linux-gnu. No regressions.
This is a command we somehow forgot to contribute at the time the Ada
language was first contributed to the FSF. This command allows
the user to change the maximum size we allow when reading memory
from dynamic objects (the default is 65536 bytes).
At the moment, this limit is only used by Ada, and so the implementation
is kept inside ada-lang.c. However, it is conceivable that other language
might want to use it also to handle the same kind of issues; for instance,
this might be useful when handling dynamic types in C. So the name
of the setting was made language-neutral, to allow for this.
Note that an alias for "set var" needs to be introduced as well.
We are not adding a test for that, since this is a feature that is
already exercized by numerous existing tests.

This patch fixes a known failure in gdb.ada/maint_with_ada.exp
(maintenance check-psymtabs). Another way to witness the same
issue is by considering the following Ada declarations...
type Wrapper is record
A : Integer;
end record;
u00045 : constant Wrapper := (A => 16#060287af#);
pragma Export (C, u00045, "symada__cS");
... which declares a variable name "u00045" but with a linkage
name which is "symada__cS". This variable is a record with one
component, the Ada equivalent of a struct with one field in C.
Trying to print that variable's value currently yields:
(gdb) p /x <symada__cS>
'symada(char, signed)' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
This indicates that GDB was only able to find the minimal symbol,
but not the full symbol. The expected output is:
(gdb) print /x <symada__cS>
$1 = (a => 0x60287af)
The error message gives a hint about what's happening: We processed
the symbol through gdb_demangle, which in the case of this particular
symbol name, ends up matching the C++ naming scheme. As a result,
the demangler transforms our symbol name into 'symada(char, signed)',
thus breaking Ada lookups.
This patch fixes the issue by first introducing a new language_defn
attribute called la_store_sym_names_in_linkage_form_p, which is a boolean
to be set to true for the few languages that do not want their symbols
to have their names stored in demangled form, and false otherwise.
We then use this language attribute to skip the call to gdb_demangle
for all languages whose la_store_sym_names_in_linkage_form_p is true.
In terms of the selection of languages for which the new attribute
is set to true, the selection errs on the side of preserving the
existing behavior, and only changes the behavior for the languages
where we are certain storing symbol names in demangling form is not
needed. It is conceivable that other languages might be in the same
situation, but I not knowing in detail the symbol name enconding
strategy, I decided to play it safe and let other language maintainers
potentially adjust their language if it makes sense to do so.

c++/22968 involves the inability of ptype to find a type definition for
a type defined inside another type. I recently added some additional
support for nested type definitions, but I apparently overlooked psymbols.
The user reports that using -readnow fixes the problem:
$ gdb 22968 -ex "ptype Outer::Inner"
There is no field named Inner
$ gdb -readnow 22968 -ex "ptype Outer::Inner"
type = struct Outer::Inner {
<no data field>
}
We clearly did not find a psymbol for Outer::Inner because it was located
in another CU. This patch addresses this problem by scanning structs
for additional psymbols. Rust is already doing this.
With this patch, the identical result to "-readnow" is given (without
using `-readnow', of course).

This test starts up and confirms that $xmm0 has the value 0, it then
modifies $xmm0 (in the inferior) and confirms that the new value can
be read (in GDB).
On some machines I was noticing that this test would occasionally
fail, and on investigation I believe that the reason for this is that
the test is linked as a dynamically linked executable and makes use of
the system libraries during startup. The reason that this causes
problems is that both the runtime linker and the startup code run
before main can, and do (on at least some platforms) make use of the
XMM registers.
In this commit I modify the test program slightly to allow it to be
linked statically, without using the startup libraries. Now by the
time GDB reaches the symbol main we have only executed one 'nop'
instruction, and the XMM registers should all have the value 0. I've
extended the test script to confirm that $xmm0 to $xmm15 are all
initially 0, and I also check that at the point after $xmm0 has been
modified, all the other XMM registers ($xmm1 to $xmm15) are still 0.
The test program is still linked against libc in order that we can
call the exit function, however, we now call _exit rather than exit in
order to avoid all of the usual cleanup that exit does. This clean up
tries to tear down things that are usually setup during the startup
code, but now this isn't called calling exit will just result in a
crash.

* gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp: Pass -static, and

A small number of tests incorrectly tried to pass -Wa,-g through to
GCC as an extra compile time flag, either to gdb_compile or
prepare_for_testing.
The problem is that the syntax used for passing the flags was
incorrect, and as a result these extra flags were being ignored.
Luckily, the 'debug' flag was being passed in each case anyway, which
means that the '-g' flag would already be added.
Given that all these tests pass 'debug', and the invalid flag has been
ignored for some time, I'm just removing the flags in this commit.
I've also changed the tests from using gdb_compile to
prepare_for_testing, which allows some extra code to be removed from a
couple of tests scripts.
There should be no change in the test results after this commit.

This patch addresses slowness when setting breakpoints, especially in
heavily templatized code. Profiling showed that find_pc_sect_line in
symtab.c was the performance bottleneck. The original logic performed a
linear search over ordered data. This patch uses a binary search, as
suggested by comments around the function. There are no behavioural
changes, but gdb is now faster at setting breakpoints in template code.
Tested using on make check on an x86 target. The optimisation speeds up
the included template-breakpoints.py performance test by a factor of 7
on my machine.

In Rust one can initialize a struct member from an identically-named
local variable by simply mentioning the member name in the
initializer, like:
let x = 0;
let y = Struct { x };
This initializes "Struct::x" from "x".
This patch adds this form of initializer to the Rust expression parser
and adds a test.

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.
Regression tested on the buildbot.

Some of GDB's trace test cases define a function end() and place a
breakpoint there with "break end". However, when libinproctrace is linked
to the binary, there are multiple methods named "end", such as
std::string::end() from the C++ library or format_pieces::end() from
common/format.h. GDB then creates multiple breakpoints instead of just a
single one, and some FAILs result, such as these:
FAIL: gdb.trace/trace-mt.exp: ftrace on: break end
FAIL: gdb.trace/trace-mt.exp: ftrace off: break end
Fix this by adding the "-qualified" option to the break commands. For
consistency, change all occurrences of "break end" (and similar) in all
trace test cases, even if the current behavior does not cause problems.
Also, consequently use the gdb_breakpoint convenience proc.

As described here

there seems to be situations where the remote-stdio-gdbserver board
fails to delete the uploaded binary file. Passing "target" fixes the
issue for Christian who reported the bug.
I did not experience this problem, but passing "target" to remote_exec
still works for me, so I'm fine with changing it.
Any objection?

Before patch
Make native gdbserver boards no longer be "remote" (in DejaGnu terms)
739b3f1d8f
the local gdbserver boards (except native-extended-gdbserver...) were
considered as remote by DejaGNU. To avoid DejaGNU trying to use ssh/scp
to download the files to the target (which is actually local), the
gdbserver-base.exp file defined some _download, _upload and _file board
operations to override the default behavior, and instead just use local
operations.
The same patch also changed remote-stdio-gdbserver.exp to make it
inherit from gdbserver-base.exp. Since then, this board (which is
actually remote) uses the overrides with local file operations. As a
result, files are never actually copied to the target.
I think we can simply remove the overrides from gdbserver-base.exp.
Because all boards should be properly considered local or remote by
DejaGNU, it should by default use the right method for transferring
files.

Some of the watchpoint logic depends on the fact that the head of the
value chain represents the user-specified value to watch. Thus no
additional values should be added to the value chain after that. However,
if a watchpoint is defined for a C++ structure/class object, then run-time
type information (RTTI) may be present. Thus, while constructing the
value chain for the watchpoint, the dynamic type is fetched by
gnuv3_rrti_type, which invokes value_addr, which then adds a new value to
the head of the value chain. This new value represents the pointer to the
structure instead of the structure itself.
With such a "polluted" value chain the watchpoint logic does not recognize
when the user intended to watch a struct, and can_use_hardware_watchpoint
returns zero. Instead of a hardware watchpoint, a software watchpoint
will then be set for no apparent reason.
This is fixed by adding an early exit to gnuv3_rtti_type when the input
value is not a dynamic class object.

This commit introduces basic support for baremetal RiscV as a GDB
target. This target is currently only tested against the RiscV software
simulator, which is not included as part of this commit. The target has
been tested against the following RiscV variants: rv32im, rv32imc,
rv32imf, rv32imfc, rv64im, rv64imc, rv64imfd, rv64imfdc.
Across these variants we pass on average 34858 tests, and fail 272
tests, which is ~0.8%.
The RiscV has a feature of its ABI where structures with a single
floating point field, a single complex float field, or one float and
one integer field are treated differently for argument passing. The
new test gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp is added to cover this
feature. As passing these structures should work on all targets then
I've made the test as a generic one, even though, for most targets,
there's probably nothing special about any of these cases.

Simon mentioned on IRC that, after the startup-with-shell feature has
been implemented on gdbserver, it is not possible to specify a
filename-only binary, like:
$ gdbserver :1234 a.out
/bin/bash: line 0: exec: a.out: not found
During startup program exited with code 127.
Exiting
This happens on systems where the current directory "." is not listed
in the PATH environment variable. Although including "." in the PATH
variable is a possible workaround, this can be considered a regression
because before startup-with-shell it was possible to use only the
filename (due to reason that gdbserver used "exec*" directly).
The idea of the patch is to verify if the program path provided by the
user (or by the remote protocol) contains a directory separator
character. If it doesn't, it means we're dealing with a filename-only
binary, so we call "gdb_abspath" to properly expand it and transform
it into a full path. Otherwise, we leave the program path untouched.
This mimicks the behaviour seen on GDB (look at "openp" and
"attach_inferior", for example).
I am also submitting a testcase which exercises the scenario described
above. This test requires gdbserver to be executed in a different CWD
than the original, so I also created a helper function, "with_cwd" (on
testsuite/lib/gdb.exp), which takes care of cd'ing into and out of the
specified dir.
Built and regtested on BuildBot, without regressions.

PR python/16497 notes that using "bt" with a positive argument prints
the wrong number of frames when a frame filter is in use. Also, in this
case, the non-frame-filter path will print a message about "More stack
frames" when there are more; but this is not done in the frame-filter
case.
The first problem is that backtrace_command_1 passes the wrong value
to apply_ext_lang_frame_filter -- that function takes the final
frame's number as an argument, but backtrace_command_1 passes the
count, which is off by one.
The solution to the second problem is to have the C stack-printing
code stop at the correct number of frames and then print the message.
Tested using the buildbot.

This changes dwarf2read to understand DW_TAG_variant_part and
DW_TAG_variant.
Note that DW_AT_discr_list is not handled. I did not need this for
Rust. I imagine this should not be too hard to add later, should
someone need it. Meanwhile I have gdb emit a complaint if it is seen.
There is a lurking issue concerning the placement of the discriminant
in the DWARF. For Rust, I ended up following the letter of the
standard and having the discriminant be a child of the
DW_TAG_variant_part. However, GCC's Ada support does not do this.
Pierre-Marie filed this with the DWARF committee:
http://dwarfstd.org/ShowIssue.php?issue=180123.1
However as that is read-only, if you have comments you might consider
adding them to the GCC bug:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=83935
Finally, there is a DWARF extension lurking in here. In Rust, a
univariant enum will not have a discriminant. However, in order to
unify the representation of all data-carrying enums, I've made LLVM
(and my forthcoming rustc patch) emit a univariant enum using a
DW_TAG_variant with a single variant part and without DW_AT_discr.
The lack of this DW_AT_discr is the extension. I will submit an issue
on dwarfstd.org about this.

A Rust enum is, essentially, a discriminated union. Currently the
Rust language support handles Rust enums locally, in rust-lang.c.
However, because I am changing the Rust compiler to use
DW_TAG_variant* to represent enums, it seemed better to have a single
internal representation for Rust enums in gdb.
This patch implements this idea by moving the current Rust enum
handling code to dwarf2read. This allows the simplification of some
parts of rust-lang.c as well.

* gdb.rust/simple.exp: Accept more possible results in enum test.
I noticed some failures of some buildbot slaves, e.g.:
FAIL: gdb.cp/nested-types.exp: ptype S10 (limit = 1) // wrong nested type enum definition: enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The issue is that they have an older gcc (not c++11 by default?) that
doesn't emit the enum underlying type information. When the
enum type is printed by ptype, it looks like this:
enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
instead of this on older gccs:
enum S10::E10 : unsigned int {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The regex that matches this is in cp_test_ptype_class, and is
enum $nested_name (: (unsigned )?int)? \{
If the "unsigned int" portion is not present, then it requires the
string to have two spaces between the enum name and opening bracket.
The fix is simply to move the trailing space inside the ? group.

Above, when we get to compute_frame_id, fi->unwind is non-NULL,
meaning, we found an unwinder, in this case the Python unwinder, but
somehow, fi->prologue_cache is left NULL. pyuw_this_id then crashes
because it assumes fi->prologue_cache is non-NULL:
static void
pyuw_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame, void **cache_ptr,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
*this_id = ((cached_frame_info *) *cache_ptr)->frame_id;
^^^^^^^^^^
'*cache_ptr' here is 'fi->prologue_cache'.
There's a quit() call in pyuw_sniffer that I believe is the one that
sometimes triggers the crash above. The crash can be reproduced
easily with this hack to force a quit out of the python unwinder:

Make the MI variable object expression evaluation, with the
-var-evaluate-expression command, recursively call pretty printers, to
match the output of normal expression printing.
Consider the following code:
struct Foo { int val; };
struct Wrapper { Foo foo; };
int main() {
Wrapper w;
w.foo.val = 23;
}
and this pretty printer file:
import gdb.printing
class FooPrinter:
def __init__(self, val):
self.val = val
def to_string(self):
return "Foo" + str(self.val["val"])
class WrapperPrinter:
def __init__(self, val):
self.val = val
def to_string(self):
return self.val["foo"]
test_printer = gdb.printing.RegexpCollectionPrettyPrinter("test")
test_printer.add_printer('Foo', '^Foo$', FooPrinter)
test_printer.add_printer('Wrapper', '^Wrapper$', WrapperPrinter)
gdb.printing.register_pretty_printer(None, test_printer)
Setting a breakpoint at the end of the function, we call the following commands:
-enable-pretty-printing
^done
-var-create var_w @ w
^done,name="var_w",numchild="0",value="{val = 23}",type="Wrapper",dynamic="1",has_more="0"
-var-create var_w_foo @ w.foo
^done,name="var_w_foo",numchild="0",value="Foo23",type="Foo",dynamic="1",has_more="0"
-var-evaluate-expression var_w
^done,value="{val = 23}"
-var-evaluate-expression var_w_foo
^done,value="Foo23"
-data-evaluate-expression w
^done,value="Foo23"
-data-evaluate-expression w.foo
^done,value="Foo23"
So, in the -var-evaluate-expression var_w case, we print the "raw" value
of w.foo, while in the -data-evaluate-expression w case, we print the
pretty printed w.foo value. After this patch, all of the above print
"Foo23".

There is existing logic in C/C++ expression parsing to avoid classifying
names as a filename when they are a field on the this object. This
change extends this logic to also avoid classifying names after a
struct-op (-> or .) as a filename, which otherwise causes a syntax
error.
Thus, it is now possible in the file
#include <map>
struct D {
void map();
}
D d;
to call
(gdb) print d.map()
where previously this would have been a syntax error.

If gdb is configured this way, sysroot is "/" in default, and if binfile

incorrect.
There are different ways to fix it, but I don't want to complicate the

Using the following Ada declarations (the same as in
gdb.ada/dyn_stride.exp)...
subtype Small_Type is Integer range L .. U;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := L) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
A1 : Array_Type :=
(1 => (I => U, S => (others => ASCII.NUL)),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
... where "L" and "U" are variables, trying to apply the repeat
operator to "A1(1)" yields to an internal error:
| (gdb) print a1(1)@3
| $5 = /[...]/gdbtypes.c:4883: internal-error: type* copy_type(const type*):
| Assertion `TYPE_OBJFILE_OWNED (type)' failed.
What happens first is that the ada-lang module evaluated the "A1(1)"
sub-expression returning a structure where "I" (one of the fields
in that structure) has a type which is dynamic, because it is
a range type whose bounds are not statically known.
Next, we apply the repeat ('@') operator, which is done via
allocate_repeat_value, which creates an array type with the correct
bounds to associate to our value, by calling lookup_array_range_type:
| struct type *
| lookup_array_range_type (struct type *element_type,
| LONGEST low_bound, LONGEST high_bound)
| {
| struct gdbarch *gdbarch = get_type_arch (element_type);
| struct type *index_type = builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_int;
| struct type *range_type
| = create_static_range_type (NULL, index_type, low_bound, high_bound);
|
| return create_array_type (NULL, element_type, range_type);
| }
As we can see, this creates an array type whose index type is
always owned by the gdbarch. This is where the problem lies.
Next, we use that type to construct a struct value. That value
then gets passed to the valprint module, which then checks
whether our object is dynamic or not. And because field "I" above
had a dynamic range type, we end up determining by association
that the artificial repeat array itself is also dynamic. So
we attempt to resolve the type, which leads to trying to copying
that type. And because the artifical array created by
lookup_array_range_type has an index which is not objfile-owned,
we trip the assertion.
This patch fixes the issue by enhancing lookup_array_range_type
to create an index type which has the same owner as the element
type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (lookup_array_range_type): Make sure the array's
index type is objfile-owned if the element type is as well.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

In my multi-target branch I ran into problems with GDB's terminal
handling that exist in master as well, with multi-inferior debugging.
This patch adds a testcase for said problems
(gdb.multi/multi-term-settings.exp), fixes the problems, fixes PR
gdb/13211 as well (and adds a testcase for that too,
gdb.base/interrupt-daemon.exp).
The basis of the problem I ran into is the following. Consider a
scenario where you have:
- inferior 1 - started with "attach", process is running on some
other terminal.
- inferior 2 - started with "run", process is sharing gdb's terminal.
In this scenario, when you stop/resume both inferiors, you want GDB to
save/restore the terminal settings of inferior 2, the one that is
sharing GDB's terminal. I.e., you want inferior 2 to "own" the
terminal (in target_terminal::is_ours/target_terminal::is_inferior
sense).
Unfortunately, that's not what you get currently. Because GDB doesn't
know whether an attached inferior is actually sharing GDB's terminal,
it tries to save/restore its settings anyway, ignoring errors. In
this case, this is pointless, because inferior 1 is running on a
different terminal, but GDB doesn't know better.
And then, because it is only possible to have the terminal settings of
a single inferior be in effect at a time, or make one inferior/pgrp be
the terminal's foreground pgrp (aka, only one inferior can "own" the
terminal, ignoring fork children here), if GDB happens to try to
restore the terminal settings of inferior 1 first, then GDB never
restores the terminal settings of inferior 2.
This patch fixes that and a few things more along the way:
- Moves enum target_terminal::terminal_state out of the
target_terminal class (it's currently private) and makes it a
scoped enum so that it can be easily used elsewhere.
- Replaces the inflow.c:terminal_is_ours boolean with a
target_terminal_state variable. This allows distinguishing is_ours
and is_ours_for_output states. This allows finally making
child_terminal_ours_1 do something with its "output_only"
parameter.
- Makes each inferior have its own copy of the
is_ours/is_ours_for_output/is_inferior state.
- Adds a way for GDB to tell whether the inferior is sharing GDB's
terminal. Works best on Linux and Solaris; the fallback works just
as well as currently.
- With that, we can remove the inf->attach_flag tests from
child_terminal_inferior/child_terminal_ours.
- Currently target_ops.to_ours is responsible for both saving the
current inferior's terminal state, and restoring gdb's state.
Because each inferior has its own terminal state (possibly handled
by different targets in a multi-target world, even), we need to
split the inferior-saving part from the gdb-restoring part. The
patch adds a new target_ops.to_save_inferior target method for
that.
- Adds a new target_terminal::save_inferior() function, so that
sequences like:
scoped_restore_terminal_state save_state;
target_terminal::ours_for_output ();
... restore back inferiors that were
target_terminal_state::is_inferior before back to is_inferior, and
leaves inferiors that were is_ours alone.
- Along the way, this adds a default implementation of
target_pass_ctrlc to inflow.c (for inf-child.c), that handles
passing the Ctrl-C to a process running on GDB's terminal or to
some other process otherwise.
- Similarly, adds a new target default implementation of
target_interrupt, for the "interrupt" command. The current
implementation of this hook in inf-ptrace.c kills the whole process
group, but that's incorrect/undesirable because we may not be
attached to all processes in the process group. And also, it's
incorrect because inferior_process_group() doesn't really return
the inferior's real process group id if the inferior is not a
process group leader... This is the cause of PR gdb/13211 [1],
which this patch fixes. While at it, that target method's "ptid"
parameter is eliminated, because it's not really used.
- A new test is included that exercises and fixes PR gdb/13211, and
also fixes a GDB issue reported on stackoverflow that I ran into
while working on this [2]. The problem is similar to PR gdb/13211,
except that it also triggers with Ctrl-C. When debugging a daemon
(i.e., a process that disconnects from the controlling terminal and
is not a process group leader, then Ctrl-C doesn't work, you just
can't interrupt the inferior at all, resulting in a hung debug
session. The problem is that since the inferior is no longer
associated with gdb's session / controlling terminal, then trying
to put the inferior in the foreground fails. And so Ctrl-C never
reaches the inferior directly. pass_signal is only used when the
inferior is attached, but that is not the case here. This is fixed
by the new child_pass_ctrlc. Without the fix, the new
interrupt-daemon.exp testcase fails with timeout waiting for a
SIGINT that never arrives.

The only way to fix that that I know of (without changing the kernel)
is to make GDB put inferiors in a separate session (create a
pseudo-tty master/slave pair, make the inferior run with the slave as
its terminal, and have gdb pump output/input on the master end).

The last test of this testcase fails when run on Ubuntu 16.04 using
the system compiler (16.04):
FAIL: gdb.base/break.exp: verify that they were cleared
This is because the testcase expected that a breakpoint on line 47 of break.c...
printf ("%d\n", factorial (atoi ("6"))); /* set breakpoint 1 here */
... would actually be inserted on an instruction belonging to
that line. However, what actually happens is that system GCC on
that version of Ubuntu ends up inlining everything, including
the call to printf, thus reporting every instruction of generated
for this line of code as belonging to a different function. As
a result, GDB ends up insering the breakpoint on the next line
of code, which is line 49:
(gdb) break break.c:$l
Breakpoint 3 at 0x4005c1: file /[...]/gdb.base/break.c, line 49.
This causes a spurious failure in the "info break" test later on,
as it assumed that the breakpoint above is inserted on line 47:
gdb_test "info break" "$srcfile:$line" "verify that they were cleared"
This patch fixes the issue by saving the actual source location where
the breakpoint was inserted.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/break.exp: Save the location where the breakpoint

tested on x86_64-linux, with two configurations:
- Ubuntu 16.04 with the system compiler (breakpoint lands on line 49)
- Ubuntu 16.04 with GCC 7.3.1 (breakpoint lands on line 47)
Compiling GDB with a recent GCC exposes a problem:
../../gdb/typeprint.c: In function 'void whatis_exp(const char*, int)':
../../gdb/typeprint.c:515:12: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
real_type = value_rtti_type (val, &full, &top, &using_enc);
~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The warning is correct. There are indeed code paths that use
uninitialized 'val', leading to crashes. Inside the
value_rtti_indirect_type/value_rtti_type calls here in whatis_exp:
if (opts.objectprint)
{
if (((TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_PTR) || TYPE_IS_REFERENCE (type))
&& (TYPE_CODE (TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (type)) == TYPE_CODE_STRUCT))
real_type = value_rtti_indirect_type (val, &full, &top, &using_enc);
else if (TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_STRUCT)
real_type = value_rtti_type (val, &full, &top, &using_enc);
}
We reach those calls above with "set print object on", and then with
any of:
(gdb) whatis struct some_structure_type
(gdb) whatis struct some_structure_type *
(gdb) whatis struct some_structure_type &
because "whatis" with a type argument enters this branch:
/* The behavior of "whatis" depends on whether the user
expression names a type directly, or a language expression
(including variable names). If the former, then "whatis"
strips one level of typedefs, only. If an expression,
"whatis" prints the type of the expression without stripping
any typedef level. "ptype" always strips all levels of
typedefs. */
if (show == -1 && expr->elts[0].opcode == OP_TYPE)
{
which does not initialize VAL. Trying the above triggers crashes like
this:
(gdb) set print object on
(gdb) whatis some_structure_type
Thread 1 "gdb" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

...
This is a regression caused by a recent-ish refactoring of the code on
'whatis_exp', introduced by:
commit c973d0aa4a
Date: Mon Aug 21 11:34:32 2017 +0100

Consider the following situation, where we have one file containing...
$ cat -n body.inc
1 i = i + 1;
... we include that file from some code, like so:
$ cat -n cat -n small.c
[...]
17 int
18 next (int i)
19 {
20 #include "body.inc"
21 return i;
22 }
When trying to insert a breakpoint on line 18, for instance:
(gdb) b small.c:18
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40049f: file body.inc, line 18.
^^
||
Here, the issue is that GDB reports the breakpoint to be in file
body.inc, which is true, but with the line number that corresponding
to the user-requested location, which is not correct.
Although the simple reproducer may look slightly artificial,
the above is simply one way to reproduce the same issue observed
when trying to insert a breakpoint on a function provided in
a .h files and then subsequently inlined in a C file.
What happens is the following:
1. We resolve the small.c:18 linespec into a symtab_and_line which
has "small.c" and 18 as the symtab and line number.
2. Next, we call skip_prologue_sal, which calculates the PC
past the prologue, and updates the symtab_and_line: PC,
but also symtab (now body.inc) and the new line (now 1).
3. However, right after that, we do:
/* Make sure the line matches the request, not what was
found. */
intermediate_results.sals[i].line = val.line;
We should either restore both symtab and line, or leave the actual
line to match the actual symtab. This patch chose the latter.
This introduces a few changes in a few tests, which required some
updates, but looking at those change, I believe them to be expected.

When creating a varobj with -var-create a user can create either fixed
varobj, or floating varobj.
A fixed varobj will always be evaluated within the thread/frame/block in
which the varobj was created, if that thread/frame/block is no longer
available then the varobj is considered out of scope.
A floating varobj will always be evaluated within the current
thread/frame/block.
Despite never using them GDB was storing the thread/frame/block into a
floating varobj, and the thread-id would then be displayed when GDB
reported on the state of the varobj, this could confuse a user into
thinking that the thread-id was relevant.
This commit prevents GDB storing the thread/frame/block onto floating
varobj, and updates the few tests where this impacts the results.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* varobj.c (varobj_create): Don't set valid_block when creating a
floating varobj.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-mi.exp: Don't expect a thread-id for floating
varobj.
* gdb.mi/mi-var-create-rtti.exp: Likewise.
This patch fixes a problem with using the MI -var-update command
to access the values of registers in frames other than the current
frame. The patch includes a test that demonstrates the problem:
* run so there are several frames on the stack
* create a fixed varobj for $pc in each frame, #'s 1 and above
* step one instruction, to modify the value of $pc
* call -var-update for each of the previously created varobjs
to verify that they are not reported as having changed.
Without the patch, the -var-update command reported that $pc for all
frames 1 and above had changed to the value of $pc in frame 0.
A varobj is created as either fixed, the expression is evaluated within
the context of a specific frame, or floating, the expression is
evaluated within the current frame, whatever that may be.
When a varobj is created by -var-create we set two fields of the varobj
to track the context in which the varobj was created, these two fields
are varobj->root->frame and var->root->valid_block.
If a varobj is of type fixed, then, when we subsequently try to
reevaluate the expression associated with the varobj we must determine
if the original frame (and block) is still available, if it is not then
the varobj can no longer be evaluated.
The problem is that for register expressions varobj->root->valid_block
is not set correctly. This block tracking is done using the global
'innermost_block' which is set in the various parser files (for example
c-exp.y). However, this is not set for register expressions.
The fix then seems like it should be to just update the innermost block
when parsing register expressions, however, that solution causes several
test regressions.
The problem is that in some cases we rely on the expression parsing
code not updating the innermost block for registers, one example is
when we parse the expression for a 'display' command. The display
commands treats registers like floating varobjs, but symbols are
treated like fixed varobjs. So 'display $reg_name' will always show
the value of '$reg_name' even as the user moves from frame to frame,
while 'display my_variable' will only show 'my_variable' while it is
in the current frame and/or block, when the user moves to a new frame
and/or block (even one with a different 'my_variable' in) then the
display of 'my_variable' stops. For the case of 'display', without
the option to force fixed or floating expressions, the current
behaviour is probably the best choice. For the varobj system though,
we can choose between floating and fixed, and we should try to make
this work for registers.
There's only one existing test case that needs to be updated, in that
test a fixed varobj is created using a register, the MI output now
include the thread-id in which the varobj should be evaluated, which I
believe is correct behaviour. I also added a new floating test case
into the same test script, however, right now this also includes the
thread-id in the expected output, which I believe is an existing gdb
bug, which I plan to fix next.
Tested on x86_64 Linux native and native-gdbserver, no regressions.

In https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/46457, "m4b" pointed out
that the Rust support in gdb doesn't properly handle the lookup of
qualified names.
In particular, as shown in the test case in this patch, something like
"::NAME" should be found in the global scope, but is not.
This turns out to happen because rust_lookup_symbol_nonlocal does not
search the global scope unless the name in question is unqualified.
However, lookup_symbol_aux does not search the global scope, and
appears to search the static scope only as a fallback (I wonder if
this is needed?).
This patch fixes the problem by changing rust_lookup_symbol_nonlocal
to search the static and global blocks in more cases.
Regression tested against various versions of the rust compiler on
Fedora 26 x86-64. (Note that there are unrelated failures with newer
versions of rustc; I will be addressing those separately.)

GDB used to assume that functions without debug info return int. It
accepted an expression containing such a function call and silently
interpreted the function's return value as int. But nowadays GDB yields
an error message instead, see
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-07/msg00139.html
This affects the s390-vregs test case, because it contains calls to
setrlimit64 and chdir. When no glibc debug info is installed, these lead
to unnecessary FAILs. Fix this by adding appropriate casts to the
inferior function calls.

This will allow to format output of "info reg" command as we wish,
without breaking the tests. In particular, it'll let us correctly align
raw and natural values of the registers using spaces instead of current
badly-working approach with tabs.
This change is forwards- and backwards-compatible, so that the amended
tests will work in the same way before and after reformatting patches
(unless the tests check formatting, of course, but I've not come across
any such tests).
Some tests already used this expected pattern, so they didn't
even have to be modified. Others are changed by this patch.
I've checked this on a i386 system, with no noticeable differences in
test results, so at least on i386 nothing seems to be broken by this.

In August 2017 the GDB test suite was changed to always add the compile
option "-fdiagnostics-color=never", see:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-08/msg00150.html
Since this option is not understood by rustc, a commit from 09/2017
dropped its use in that case:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=5eb5f850
("Don't use -fdiagnostics-color=never for rustc")
But that change goes overboard and stops using the option for other
languages as well. Thus compiler diagnostics written into gdb.log may
contain colored output again. This is fixed.

* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Re-enable use of
universal_compile_options for languages other than Rust.
The GDB test case s390-tdbregs.exp verifies GDB's handling of the
"transaction diagnostic block". For simplicity, the test case uses the
"transaction begin" (TBEGIN) instruction with the "allow floating-point
operation" flag set to zero. But some GCC versions may indeed emit
floating point or vector instructions for this test case. If this happens
in the transaction, it aborts, and an endless loop results.
This change tells the compiler to produce a soft-float binary, so no
floating-point or vector registers are touched.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/s390-tdbregs.exp: Add the compile option -msoft-float.
This fixes PR 16577.
This patch changes gdb_bfd_map_section to issue a warning rather than an error
if it is unable to read the object file, and sets the size of the section/frame
that it attempted to read to 0 on error.
The description of gdb_bfd_map_section states that it will try to read or map
the contents of the section SECT, and if successful, the section data is
returned and *SIZE is set to the size of the section data. This function was
throwing an error and leaving *SIZE as-is. Setting the section size to 0
indicates to dwarf2_build_frame_info that there is no data to read, otherwise
it will try to read from an invalid frame pointer.
Changing the error to a warning allows this to be handled gracefully.
Additionally, the error was clobbering the breakpoint output indicating the
current frame (function name, arguments, source file, and line number). E.g.
Thread 3 "foo" hit Breakpoint 1, BFD: reopening /tmp/jna-1013829440/jna2973250704389291330.tmp: No such file or directory

(gdb)
While the "BFD: reopening ..." messages will still appear interspersed in the
breakpoint output, the current frame info is now displayed:

In https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-12/msg00215.html, Jan
pointed out that the scalar printing patches caused a regression in
scm-ports.exp on x86.
What happens is that on x86, this:
set sp_reg [get_integer_valueof "\$sp" 0]
... ends up setting sp_reg to a negative value, because
get_integer_valueof uses "print/d":
print /d $sp
$1 = -11496
Then later the test suite does:
gdb_test "guile (print (seek rw-mem-port (value->integer sp-reg) SEEK_SET))" \
"= $sp_reg" \
"seek to \$sp"
... expecting this value to be identical to the saved $sp_reg value.
However it gets:
guile (print (seek rw-mem-port (value->integer sp-reg) SEEK_SET))
= 4294955800
"print" is just a wrapper for guile's format:
gdb_test_no_output "guile (define (print x) (format #t \"= ~A\" x) (newline))"
The seek function returns a scm_t_off, the printing of which is
handled by guile, not by gdb.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 26 using an ordinary build and also a -m32
build.

This adds a testcase for the previous commit. The regression was
related to in-line step overs. The reason we didn't see it on native
x86-64/s390 GNU/Linux testing is that native debugging uses displaced
stepping by default (because native debugging defaults to "maint set
target-non-stop on"), unlike remote debugging.
So in order to trigger the bug with native debugging as well, the
testcase disables displaced stepping explicitly.
Also, instead of using watchpoints to trigger the regression, the
testcase uses a breakpoint at address 0, which should be more
portable.

Trying to use gdb_compile_shlib with the shlib= option to build a shared
library that depends on another shared library does not work as of
today. See:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-10/msg00733.html
The problem is that building the lib is done in two steps, compilation
(.c -> .o) and linking (.o -> .so) and the shlib= options are passed to
both steps. When compiling the object file (.o), it results in gcc
complaining:
gcc: warning: .../solib-vanish-lib2.so: linker input file unused because linking not done
The first solution I came up with was to filter the options inside
gdb_compile_shlib to remove the shlib= options from the options we pass
when compiling the .o file.
I then thought it would be simpler to ignore the shlib= options in
gdb_compile when not building an executable (the executable category
includes the shared libraries). For other compilation types (object
file, preprocess and generate assembly), it doesn't make sense to add
shared libraries to the source file list.
Regtested on the buildbot.

* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Ignore shlib= and shlib_load
options when not creating an executable.

^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb)
Note, thread _2_. There's really only one thread in the inferior
(it's still at the entry point), but still GDB added a bogus second
thread.
The reason GDB started adding a second thread after 5cd63fda03 is
this hunk:
+ if (event->ptid == null_ptid)
+ {
+ const char *thr = strstr (p1 + 1, ";thread:");
+ if (thr != NULL)
+ event->ptid = read_ptid (thr + strlen (";thread:"),
+ NULL);
+ else
+ event->ptid = magic_null_ptid;
+ }
Note the else branch that falls back to magic_null_ptid. We reach
that when we process the initial stop reply sent back in response to
the the "?" (status) packet early in the connection setup:
Sending packet: $?#3f...Ack
Packet received: T0506:0000000000000000;07:40a510f4fd7f0000;10:d0fe1201577f0000;
And note that that response does not include a ";thread:XXX" part.
This stop reply is processed after listing threads with qfThreadInfo /
qsThreadInfo :
Sending packet: $qfThreadInfo#bb...Ack
Packet received: m3915
Sending packet: $qsThreadInfo#c8...Ack
Packet received: l
meaning, when we process that stop reply, we treat the event as coming
from a thread with ptid == magic_null_ptid, which is not yet in the
thread list, so we add it then:
(top-gdb) p ptid
$1 = {m_pid = 42000, m_lwp = -1, m_tid = 1}

things go downhill from this.
We don't see the problem with current master gdbserver, because that
version always sends the ";thread:" part in the initial stop reply:
Sending packet: $?#3f...Packet received: T0506:0000000000000000;07:a0d4ffffff7f0000;10:d05eddf7ff7f0000;thread:p3cea.3cea;core:3;
Years ago I had added a "--disable-packet=" command line option to
gdbserver which comes in handy for testing this, since the existing
"--disable-packet=Tthread" precisely makes gdbserver not send that
";thread:" part in stop replies. The testcase added by this commit
emulates old gdbserver making use of that.
I've compared a testrun at 5cd63fda035d^ (before regression) with
'current master+patch', against old gdbserver at f8b73d13b7ca^. I
hacked out --once, and "monitor exit" to be able to test. The results
are a bit too unstable to tell accurately, but it looked like there
were no regressions. Maciej confirmed this worked for him as well.
No regressions on master (against master gdbserver).

A previous patch fixed verbatim matching in the lookup at the minimal
symbol level, but we should also be finding that same symbol through
the partial/full symtab search.
For example, this is what happens if we use "print" instead of
"break":
(gdb) p <MixedCaseFunc>
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4024dc <MixedCaseFunc>
Before the C++ wildmatching series, GDB knows that MixedCaseFunc is a
function without parameters, and the expression above means calling
it. If you try it before having started the inferior, you'd get the
following (expected) error:
(gdb) print <MixedCaseFunc>
You can't do that without a process to debug.
The main idea behind making the name matcher be determined by the
symbol's language is so that C++ (etc.) wildmatching in linespecs
works even if the current language is not C++, as e.g., when you step
through C or assembly code.
Ada's verbatim matching syntax however ("<...>") isn't quite the same.
It is more a property of the current language than of a particular
symbol's language. We want to support this syntax when debugging an
Ada program, but it's reason of existence is to find non-Ada symbols.
This suggests going back to enabling it depending on current language
instead of language of the symbol being matched.
I'm not entirely happy with the "current_language" reference (though I
think that it's harmless). I think we could try storing the current
language in the lookup_name_info object, and then convert a bunch of
functions more to pass around lookup_name_info objects instead of
"const char *" names. I.e., build the lookup_name_info higher up.
I'm not sure about that, I'll have to think more about it. Maybe
something different will be better. Meanwhile, this gets us going.
I've extended the testcase to also exercise a no-debug-info function,
for extra coverage of the minsyms-only paths.

This patch fixes the regression covered by the test added by:
commit 344420da6b
Date: Thu Jan 4 03:30:37 2018 -0500
Subject: Add "complete break ada" test to gdb.ada/complete.exp
The regression had been introduced by:
commit b5ec771e60
Date: Wed Nov 8 14:22:32 2017 +0000
Subject: Introduce lookup_name_info and generalize Ada's FULL/WILD name matching
The gist of it is that linespec completion in Ada mode is generating
additional matches that should not appear in the match list
(internally generated symbols, or symbols that should be enclosed
between "<...>"). These extraneous entries have uppercase characters, such as:
break ada__stringsS
break ada__strings__R11s
[etc]
These matches come from minimal symbols. The problem is that Ada
minsyms end up with no language set (language_auto), and thus we end
up using the generic symbol name matcher for those instead of Ada's.
We already had a special case for in compare_symbol_name to handle
this, but it was limited to expressions, while the case at hand is
completing a linespec. Fix this by applying the special case to
linespec completion as well. I.e., remove the EXPRESSION check from
compare_symbol_name. That alone turns out to not be sufficient still
-- GDB would still show a couple entries that shouldn't be there:
~~
break ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name__2Xn
break ada__exceptions__exception_data__exception_name_length__2Xn
~~
The reason is that these minimal symbols end up with their language
set to language_cplus / C++, because those encoded names manage to
demangle successfully as C++ symbols (using an old C++ mangling
scheme):
$ echo ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name__2Xn | c++filt
Xn::ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name(void)
It's unfortunate that Ada's encoding scheme doesn't start with some
unique prefix like "_Z" in the C++ Itanium ABI mangling scheme. For
now, paper over that by treating C++ minsyms as Ada minsyms.

The problem here is that we are using the user-provided lookup name

included.
This commit fixes the minsym lookup case. psymbol/symbol lookup will
be fixed in a follow up.
In the minsym case, we're using using the user-provided lookup name
literally for linkage name comparisons. That obviously can't work
since the "<>" are not really part of the linkage name.
The original idea was that we'd use the symbol's language to select
the right symbol name matching algorithm, but that doesn't work for
Ada because it's not really possible to unambiguously tell from the
linkage name alone whether we're dealing with Ada symbols, so Ada
minsyms end up with no language set, or sometimes C++ set.
So fix this by treating Ada mode specially when determining the
linkage name to match against.

One of the tests in gdb.ada/access_tagged_param.exp verifies
the value of the parameters being printed by GDB when stopping
at a breakpoint inside procedure Pck.Inspect.
In particular, one of these parameters is actually generated
internally by the compiler, and does only indirectly depend
on the user-level code. A recent change in AdaCore's compiler
caused the code expansion to change a little bit, and as a result,
the value of that parameter has changed from 2 to 3. This can be
evindenced by looking at the code post expansion, using the -gnatDG
command-line switch to generate the .dg files:
$ gnatmake -g -gnatDG foo.adb
$ vi foo.adb.dg
We can see that the call to pck.inspect used to be:
pck__inspect (P8b, objL => 2);
With a recent version of GNAT Pro, it is now:
pck__inspect (P9b, objL => 3);
This change causes a spurious FAIL when running this testcase.
The objL parameter being, at heart, a simple counter of the nesting
level, this commit relaxes the expected output to accept any single-
digit number. We could accept any decimal, but given the example
program, I dout that number will reach double-digit level. If it
does, we'll double-check that this is normal, and relax the expected
output further.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/access_tagged_param.exp: Relax expected output
for value of "ObjL" in "continue" to pck.inspect breakpoint
test.

Consider the following code:
type Index is (Index1, Index2);
Size : constant Integer := 10;
for Index use (Index1 => 1, Index2 => Size);
type Array_Index_Enum is array (Index) of Integer;
my_table : Array_Index_Enum :=(others => 42);
When compiling the code above with a compiler where the GNAT encodings
are turned off (which can be temporarily emulated by using the compiler
switch -fgnat-encodings=minimal), printing this table in gdb leads to:
(gdb) p my_table
$1 = (42, 42, 4203344, 10, -8320, 32767, 4203465, 0, 0, 0)
The displayed content is wrong since the handling part believes
that the length of the array is max index value (10) minus the
first index value (1) i+ 1 = 10 which is wrong since index are not
contiguous in this case.
The right behavior is to detect that the array is using enumeration
index hence parse the enumeration values in order to get the number
of indexes in this array (2 indexes here).
This patch fixes this issue and changes the output as follow:
(gdb) p my_table
$1 = (42, 42)

Consider the following code which first declares a tagged type (the
equivalent of a class in Ada), and then a procedure which takes a
pointer (access) to this type's 'Class.
package Pck is
type Top_T is tagged record
N : Integer := 1;
end record;
procedure Inspect (Obj: access Top_T'Class);
end Pck;
Putting a breakpoint in that procedure and then running to it triggers
an internal error:
(gdb) break inspect
(gdb) continue
Breakpoint 1, pck.inspect (obj=0x63e010
/[...]/gdb/stack.c:621: internal-error: void print_frame_args(symbol*, frame_info*, int, ui_file*): Assertion `nsym != NULL' failed.
What's special about this subprogram is that it takes an access to
what we call a 'Class type, and for implementation reasons, the
compiler adds an extra argument named "objL". If you are curious why,
it allows the compiler for perform dynamic accessibility checks that
are mandated by the language.
If we look at the location where we get the internal error (in
stack.c), we find that we are looping over the symbol of each
parameter, and for each parameter, we do:
/* We have to look up the symbol because arguments can have
two entries (one a parameter, one a local) and the one we
want is the local, which lookup_symbol will find for us.
[...]
nsym = lookup_symbol (SYMBOL_LINKAGE_NAME (sym),
b, VAR_DOMAIN, NULL).symbol;
gdb_assert (nsym != NULL);
The lookup_symbol goes through the lookup structure, which means the
symbol's linkage name ("objL") gets transformed into a
lookup_name_info object (in block_lookup_symbol), before it gets fed
to the block symbol dictionary iterators. This, in turn, triggers the
symbol matching by comparing the "lookup" name which, for Ada, means
among other things, lowercasing the given name to "objl". It is this
transformation that causes the lookup find no matches, and therefore
trip this assertion.
Going back to the "offending" call to lookup_symbol in stack.c, what
we are trying to do, here, is do a lookup by linkage name. So, I
think what we mean to be doing is a completely literal symbol lookup,
so maybe not even strcmp_iw, but actually just plain strcmp???
In the past, in practice, you could get that effect by doing a lookup
using the C language. But that doesn't work, because we still end up
somehow using Ada's lookup_name routine which transforms "objL".
So, ideally, as I hinted before, I think what we need is a way to
perform a literal lookup so that searches by linkage names like the
above can be performed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This commit fixes the problem by implementing something similar to
Joel's literal idea, but with some important differences.
I considered adding a symbol_name_match_type::LINKAGE and supporting
searching by linkage name for any language, but the problem with that
is that the dictionaries only work with SYMBOL_SEARCH_NAME, because
that's what is used for hashing. We'd need separate dictionaries for
hashed linkage names.
So with the current symbol tables infrastructure, it's not literal
linkage names that we want to pass down, but instead literal _search_
names (SYMBOL_SEARCH_NAME, etc.).
However, psymbols have no overload/function parameter info in C++, so
a straight strcmp doesn't work properly for C++ name matching.
So what we do is be a little less aggressive then and add a new
symbol_name_match_type::SEARCH_SYMBOL instead that takes as input a
non-user-input search symbol, and then we skip any decoding/demangling
steps and make:
- Ada treat that as a verbatim match,
- other languages treat it as symbol_name_match_type::FULL.
This also fixes the new '"maint check-psymtabs" for Ada' testcase for
me (gdb.ada/maint_with_ada.exp). I've not removed the kfail yet
because Joel still sees that testcase failing with this patch.
That'll be fixed in follow up patches.

The comments about mixed case in the testcase are actually a red
herring. The problem here is that we'd get to
ada_lookup_encoded_symbol with "my_table", which wraps the looked up
name in "<>"s to force a verbatim match, and that in turn disables
wild matching.
Fix this by swapping around the internals of ada_lookup_encoded_symbol
and ada_lookup_symbol, thus avoiding the encoding and
verbatim-wrapping in the ada_lookup_symbol case, the case that starts
with a user-provided lookup name.
Ada encoding is still done of course, in the ada_lookup_name_info
ctor. This could be also seen as avoiding the double-encoding problem
in a different way.

Consider the following code, which creates a local variable B
which is a renaming whose expression references a subprogram
parameter:
procedure Flip (Bits : in out Bits_Type; I : Natural) is
begin
declare
B : Boolean renames Bits (I);
begin
B := not B; -- BREAK
end;
end Flip;
Trying to print the value of B when at the "BREAK" line currently
does not work:
(gdb) p b

What happens is the following: For the renaming, GNAT generates
a variable whose name is encoded as follow:
b___XR_bits___XEXSi
GDB properly detects that variable, determines that, to compute
the variable's value, we start from the symbol "Bits", which
we then have to subscript (XS) using 'i' as the index. The error
occurs while trying to find 'i'.
This is because we forgot to pass the block in the call to

Consider the following situation Ada code:
type Kind_T is (One, Two, Three);
type Time_Set_T is array (Kind_T) of Integer;
type T is record
Started : Time_Set_T;
end record;
Null_T : constant T := (Started => (others => 0));
My_Item : Pck.T := Pck.Null_T;
Trying to print the value of My_Item.Started is no problem:
(gdb) p item.started
$1 = (0, 0, 0)
However, if you save My_Item into a convenience variable first,
and then try to print a component of that record, you get
an unexpected memory error, instead of getting the same result.
For instance:
(gdb) set variable $item := item
(gdb) p $item.started
Cannot access memory at address 0x0
The issue occurs when, after we extracted the component from
the convenience variable, we next try to "fix" it (which is
ada-lang speak for resolving the type into a static type).
This is done in ada_to_fixed_value, which delegates to
ada_to_fixed_value_create via:
val = ada_to_fixed_value_create (value_type (val),
value_address (val), val);
And looking at ada_to_fixed_value_create, we see that:
struct type *type = ada_to_fixed_type (type0, 0, address, NULL, 1);
if (type == type0 && val0 != NULL)
return val0;
else
return value_from_contents_and_address (type, 0, address);
The part that interests us, in this case, is the "else" branch,
where we obviously make the implicit assumption that our object
has an address, which is not true, in this case, because we are
actually dealing with a convenience variable.
This patch plugs that hole by adding special handing for situations
where val does not live in memory. In that case, we just create
a not_lval value using val's contents.

In this case, the index of the first element in this array is also

we do we enumeration types, we do not need to print the index of the
first element when printing the array.

* gdb.ada/bp_c_mixed_case: New testcase.
Tested on x86_64-linux; generates a KPASS before the regression
was introduced, and now generates a KFAIL.
This patch adds a new test to demonstrate a regression introduced by:
commit b5ec771e60
Date: Wed Nov 8 14:22:32 2017 +0000
Subject: Introduce lookup_name_info and generalize Ada's FULL/WILD name matching
The original purpose of the new test is to exercise the "complete"
command with an expression for which a large number of matches are
returned and to verify that each match returned is a plausible match.
In this particular case, the commit above causes GDB to generate
additional matches which should in fact not appear in the list
(internally generated symbols, or symbols that should be enclosed
between "<...>"). These extraneous entries are easy to spot, because
they have uppercase characters, such as:
break ada__stringsS
break ada__strings__R11s
[etc]
For now, the new test is KFAIL'ed, to avoid generating a new FAIL
while we work on fixing that regression.

Tested on x86_64-linux, both before and after the patch.
When using gdb for debugging Ada source code, there are several catchpoint
types you can define in order to stop upon certain conditions. Let's
use this small example:
procedure Foo is
begin
begin
raise Constraint_Error;
exception
when Program_Error =>
null;
when Constraint_Error =>
null;
when others =>
null;
end;
end Foo;
One can stop when the exception is being raised by using the exception
catchpoint like below:
(gdb) catch exception
Catchpoint 1: all Ada exceptions
(gdb)
In that case, when running Foo, gdb will stop at the line where the exception
was raised:
begin
>>> raise Constraint_Error;
exception
This patch introduces new type of catchpoint, when the user wants to stop
at the location of the exception handling.
Imagine we want to stop on any exception handled by the program, we can do:
(gdb) catch handlers
Catchpoint 1: all Ada exceptions handlers
(gdb) r
Starting program: /tmp/foo
By doing so, when running Foo, gdb will stop here:
Catchpoint 1, exception at 0x000000000040255a in foo () at foo.adb:25
25 when Constraint_Error =>
(gdb)
It is also possible to stop when the Constraint_Error exception is being
handled in this program. With this patch, we can use:
(gdb) catch handlers Constraint_Error
Catchpoint 1: `Constraint_Error' Ada exception handlers
(gdb)
Like for other catchpoint, you can set a condition when adding a catchpoint
on exception handlers.
Here the handlers catchpoint checks Global_Var:
(gdb) catch handlers Constraint_Error if Global_Var /= 0

Consider the following Ada code:
procedure Nested (L, U : Integer) is
subtype Small_Type is Integer range L .. U;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := L) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
A1 : Array_Type :=
(1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
procedure Discard (R : Record_Type) is
begin
null;
end Discard;
begin
Discard (A1 (1)); -- STOP
end;
Trying to print a slice of that array currently yields:
(gdb) p a1(1..3)
$1 = ((i => 0, s => ""), (i => 0, s => ""), (i => 0, s => ""))
We expected instead:
(gdb) p a1(1..3)
$1 = ((i => 0, s => ""), (i => 1, s => "A"), (i => 2, s => "AB"))
This is because the functions we use in ada-lang.c to create the type
of the array slice (ada_value_slice and ada_value_slice_from_ptr) was
not taking into account the stride of the array. This patch fixes this.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_value_slice_from_ptr): Take array stride into
account when creating the array type of the slice.
(ada_value_slice): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/dyn_stride.exp: Add slice test.
Note that, with the current use of ada_value_slice, the enhancement
to handle dynamic array strides seems unnecessary, because I do not
see how an array with a dynamic stride can be referenced by either
by reference or pointer. Since references are coerced to array pointers,
in both cases, the slice is performed by ada_value_slice_from_ptr.
But ada_value_slice is enhanced nonetheless, in the spirit of making
the code more robust, in case we missed something, and also as similar
as possible with its from_ptr counterpart.
tested on x86_64-linux.
This patch adds support for DW_AT_byte_stride, using Ada as one
example of where this would be useful. However, the implementation
is language-agnostic.
Consider the following Ada code:
procedure Nested (L, U : Integer) is
subtype Small_Type is Integer range L .. U;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := L) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
A1 : Array_Type :=
(1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
procedure Discard (R : Record_Type) is
begin
null;
end Discard;
begin
Discard (A1 (1)); -- STOP
end;
It defines an array A1 of Record_Type, which is a variant record
type whose maximum size actually depends on the value of the
parameters passed when calling Nested. As a result, the stride
of the array A1 cannot be known statically, which leads the compiler
to generate a dynamic DW_AT_byte_stride attribute for our type.
Here is what the debugging info looks like with GNAT:
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x14e) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF17 # DW_AT_name: "foo__nested__T18b"
.long 0x141 # DW_AT_byte_stride
.long 0xdc # DW_AT_type
.uleb128 0x11 # (DIE (0x15f) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x166 # DW_AT_type
.byte 0x3 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x14e
There DW_AT_byte_stride is a reference to a local (internal)
variable:
.uleb128 0x9 # (DIE (0x141) DW_TAG_variable)
.long .LASF6 # DW_AT_name: "foo__nested__T18b___PAD___XVZ"
This patch enhances GDB to handle this dynamic byte stride attribute
by first adding a new dynamic_prop_node_kind (DYN_PROP_BYTE_STRIDE)
to store the array dynamic stride info (when dynamic). It then enhances
the dynamic type resolver to handle this dynamic property.
Before applying this patch, trying to print the value of some of
A1's elements after having stopped at the "STOP" comment does not
work. For instance:
(gdb) p a1(2)
Cannot access memory at address 0x80000268dec0
With this patch applied, GDB now prints the value of all 3 elements
correctly:
(gdb) print A1(1)
$1 = (i => 0, s => "")
(gdb) print A1(2)
$2 = (i => 1, s => "A")
(gdb) print A1(3)
$3 = (i => 2, s => "AB")

Consider the following Ada code defining a global variable whose
type is an array of static bounds (1 .. 2), but where its elements
are a variant record whose size is not statically known:
type Ints is array (Natural range <>) of Integer;
type Bounded_Ints (Max_Size : Natural) is record
Length : Natural := 0;
Objs : Ints (1 .. Max_Size);
end record;
type Ints_Doubled is array (1 .. 2) of Bounded_Ints (Idem (0));
Global : Ints_Doubled;
When compiling this program at -O2 using a GCC-6.4-based compiler
on x86_64-linux, trying to print the value of that global variable
yields:
(gdb) p global
$1 =
Let's look at the debugging info, which starts with the global

.uleb128 0x7 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_member)
.long .LASF4 # DW_AT_name: "max_size"
[snip]
The error occurs while Ada evaluator is trying to "fix"
the element type inside the array, so as to determine its actual
size. For that, it searches for a parallel "XVZ" variable,
which, when found, contains the object's actual size.
Unfortunately in our case, the variable exists but has been
optimized out, as seen by the presence of a variable DIE in
the debugging info, but with no address attribute:
.uleb128 0x18 # (DIE (0x24e) DW_TAG_variable)
.long .LASF31 # DW_AT_name: "fd__Tints_doubledC___XVZ"
.long 0x257 # DW_AT_type
# DW_AT_artificial
Discussing this with some members of AdaCore's compiler team,
it is expected that the optimizer can get rid of this variable,
and we don't want to pessimize the code just to improve debuggability,
since -O2 is about performance. So, the idea of this patch is
not to make it work, but provide a bit more information to help
users understand what kind of error is preventing GDB from being
able to print the variable's value.
The first hurdle we had to clear was the fact that ada_val_print
traps all exceptions (including QUIT ones!), and does so completly
silently. So, the fix was to add a trace of the exception being
generated. While doing so, we fix an old XXX/FIXME by only catching
errors, letting QUIT exceptions go through.
Once this is done, we now get an error message, which gives a first
clue as to what was happening:
(gdb) p fd.global
$1 = <error reading variable: value has been optimized out>
However, it would be more useful to know which value it was
that was optimized out. For that purpose, we enhanced
ada-lang.c::ada_to_fixed_type_1 so as to re-throw the error
with a message which indicates which variable we failed to read.
With those changes, the new output is now:
(gdb) p fd.global
$1 = <error reading variable: unable to read value of fd__Tints_doubledC___XVZ (value has been optimized out)>
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_to_fixed_type_1): Rethrow errors with
a more detailed exception message when getting an exception
while trying to read the value of an XVZ variable.
* ada-valprint.c (ada_val_print): Only catch RETURN_MASK_ERROR
exceptions. Print an error message when an exception is caught.
