Hi,

After we make GDBserver handling Zx/zx packet idempotent,
[PATCH 3/3] [GDBserver] Make Zx/zx packet handling idempotent.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-04/msg00480.html
> Now removal/insertion of all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints, either
> internal, or from GDB, always go through the target methods.
GDBserver handles all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints through target
methods. However, some target backends, such as arm, don't support Z0
packet but need software breakpoint to do breakpoint stepping over in
linux-low.c:start_step_over,
if (can_hardware_single_step ())
{
step = 1;
}
else
{
CORE_ADDR raddr = (*the_low_target.breakpoint_reinsert_addr) ();
set_reinsert_breakpoint (raddr);
step = 0;
}
a software breakpoint is requested to the backend, and the error is
triggered. This problem should affect targets having
breakpoint_reinsert_addr hooked.
Instead of handling memory breakpoint in these affected linux backend,
this patch handles memory breakpoint in linux_{insert,remove}_point,
that, if memory breakpoint is requested, call
{insert,remove}_memory_breakpoint respectively. Then, it becomes
unnecessary to handle memory breakpoint for linux x86 backend, so
this patch removes the code there.
This patch is tested with GDBserver on x86_64-linux and arm-linux
(-marm, -mthumb). Note that there are still some fails in
gdb.base/cond-eval-mode.exp with -mthumb, because GDBserver doesn't
know how to select the correct breakpoint instruction according to
the arm-or-thumb-mode of requested address. This is a separate
issue, anyway.

--attach/--multi are currently only mentioned on the usage info first
lines, the meaning of PROG is completely absent and the COMM text does
not mention '-/stdio'.
A few options are missing:
. --disable-randomization / --no-disable-randomization is not mentioned.
Although the manual has a comment saying these are superceded by
QDisableRandomization, that only makes sense for "run" in
extended-remote mode. When we start gdbserver passing it a PROG,
--disable-randomization / --no-disable-randomization do take effect.
So I think we should document these.
. We show --debug / --remote-debug, so might as well show --disable-packet too.
GDB's --help has this "For more information, consult the GDB manual"
blurb that is missing in GDBserver's --help.
Then shuffle things around a bit into "Operating modes", "Other
options" and "Debug options" sections, similarly to GDB's --help
structure.

This commit introduces a new function, iterate_over_lwps, that
shared Linux code can use to call a function for each LWP that
matches certain criteria. This function already existed in GDB

setters. An equivalent was written for gdbserver and gdbserver's
low-level Linux x86 debug register setters were modified to use
it.

This commit introduces a new function, x86_debug_reg_state, that

debug registers. This function already existed in GDB and was

written for gdbserver and gdbserver's x86_linux_prepare_to_resume
was modified to use it.

The issue is that here:
RSRL: resuming stopped-resumed LWP LWP 18465 at 0x3b36af4b51: step=0
RSRL: resuming stopped-resumed LWP LWP 18461 at 0x3b36af4b51: step=0
The first line shows we had just resumed LWP 18465, which does:
void *
child_func (void *dummy)
{
kill (pid, SIGKILL);
exit (1);
}
So if the kernel manages to schedule that thread fast enough, the
process may be killed before GDB has a chance to resume LWP 18461.
GDBserver has code at the tail end of linux_resume_one_lwp to cope
with this:
~~~
ptrace (step ? PTRACE_SINGLESTEP : PTRACE_CONT, lwpid_of (thread),
(PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3) 0,
/* Coerce to a uintptr_t first to avoid potential gcc warning
of coercing an 8 byte integer to a 4 byte pointer. */
(PTRACE_TYPE_ARG4) (uintptr_t) signal);
current_thread = saved_thread;
if (errno)
{
/* ESRCH from ptrace either means that the thread was already
running (an error) or that it is gone (a race condition). If
it's gone, we will get a notification the next time we wait,
so we can ignore the error. We could differentiate these
two, but it's tricky without waiting; the thread still exists
as a zombie, so sending it signal 0 would succeed. So just
ignore ESRCH. */
if (errno == ESRCH)
return;
perror_with_name ("ptrace");
}
~~~
However, that's not a complete fix, because between starting to handle
the resume request and getting that PTRACE_CONTINUE, we run other
ptrace calls that can also fail with ESRCH, and that end up throwing
an error (with perror_with_name).
In the case above, I indeed sometimes see resume_stopped_resumed_lwps
fail in the registers read:
resume_stopped_resumed_lwps (struct lwp_info *lp, void *data)
{
...
CORE_ADDR pc = regcache_read_pc (regcache);
Or e.g., in 32-bit mode, i386_linux_resume has several calls that can
throw too.
Whether to ignore ptrace errors or not depends on context that is only
available somewhere up the call chain. So the fix is to let ptrace
errors throw as they do today, and wrap the resume request in a
TRY/CATCH that swallows it iff the lwp that we were trying to resume
is no longer ptrace-stopped.

The previous change added an assertion that is catching yet another
bug in count_events_callback/select_event_lwp_callback:
(gdb)
PASS: gdb.mi/mi-nonstop.exp: interrupted
mi_expect_interrupt: expecting: \*stopped,(reason="signal-received",signal-name="0",signal-meaning="Signal 0"|reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGINT",signal-meaning="Interrupt")[^
]*
/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:2329: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.
select_event_lwp: Assertion `num_events > 0' failed.
=thread-group-exited,id="i1"
Certainly select_event_lwp_callback should always at least find one
event, as it's only called because an event triggered (though we may
have more than one: the point of the function is randomly picking
one).
An LWP that GDB previously asked to continue/step (thus is resumed)
and gets a vCont;t request ends up with last_resume_kind ==
resume_stop. These functions in gdbserver used to filter out events
that weren't going to be reported to GDB; I think the last_resume_kind
kind check used to make sense at that point, but it no longer does.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-03-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (count_events_callback, select_event_lwp_callback):
No longer check whether the thread has resume_stop as last resume
kind.
Wanting to make sure the new continue-pending-status.exp test tests
both cases of threads 2 and 3 reporting an event, I added counters to
the test, to make it FAIL if events for both threads aren't seen.
Assuming a well behaved backend, and given a reasonable number of
iterations, it should PASS.
However, running that against GNU/Linux gdbserver, I found that
surprisingly, that FAILed. GDBserver always reported the breakpoint
hit for the same thread.
Turns out that I broke gdbserver's thread event randomization
recently, with git commit 582511be ([gdbserver] linux-low.c: better
starvation avoidance, handle non-stop mode too). In that commit I
missed that the thread structure also has a status_pending_p field...
The end result was that count_events_callback always returns 0, and
then if no thread is stepping, select_event_lwp always returns the
event thread. IOW, no randomization is happening at all. Quite
curious how all the other changes in that patch were sufficient to fix
non-stop-fair-events.exp anyway even with that broken.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from
this:
~~~
volatile gdb_exception ex;
TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
if (ex.reason < 0)
{
}
~~~
to this:
~~~
TRY
{
}
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
~~~
Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and
declaring the caught exception in the catch block.
This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when
building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode
(using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step.
TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY
and the CATCH blocks, like:
TRY
{
}
// some code here.
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch.
By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block
scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile
exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more
directly to C++'s catch blocks.
The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was
done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual
editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places
needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were
using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases
where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH
after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB
still builds at each incremental step.
END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons:
First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which
requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere.
Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for
block, like:
#define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \
for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \
exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \
EXCEPTION = exception_none)
would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90,
which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code.
Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as
long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH
block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every
frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will
be done in END_CATCH.
After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until
cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will
save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH
catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so
that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist.
IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a
newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering
C++.

I happen to see that show_debug_regs is used as an arithmetic type,
but it should be a boolean,
if (show_debug_regs > 1)
On the other hand, GDB RSP only allows setting it to either 0 or 1,
so it makes no sense to check whether it is greater than 1. This
patch fixes it.

The heuristic for filtering out kernel addressess in BTS trace checks the
most significant bit in each address. This works fine for 32-bit and 64-bit
mode.
For 32-bit compatibility mode, i.e. a 32-bit inferior running on 64-bit
host, we need to check bit 63 (or any bit bigger than 31), not bit 31.
Use the machine field in struct utsname provided by a uname call to
determine whether we are running on a 64-bit host.

Functions and variables that are exported by the IPA DSO (that
GDBserver needs to look up) should have "C" mangling, thus be declared
with extern "C".
Function and variable declarations need the extern "C" marker, but
variable definitions can't be marked extern, so the patch splits
IP_AGENT_EXPORT into three.
Building in C++ mode revealed that a few variables were missing
IP_AGENT_EXPORT, thus the IPA has been broken when stripped, even in C
mode... So this ends being a bug fix as well.

This patch renames symbols that happen to have names which are
reserved keywords in C++.
Most of this was generated with Tromey's cxx-conversion.el script.
Some places where later hand massaged a bit, to fix formatting, etc.
And this was rebased several times meanwhile, along with re-running
the script, so re-running the script from scratch probably does not
result in the exact same output. I don't think that matters anyway.

Rename symbols whose names are reserved C++ keywords throughout.
This new option, disabled by default for now, allows specifying
whether to build GDB, GDBserver, and friends with a C++ (98/03)
compiler.
The name of the switch should be familiar to those who followed GCC's
own C++ conversion process.
. Adding -fpermissive to COMPILER in C++ mode (see the new
build-with-cxx.m4 file) makes errors like these be warnings instead:
gdb/infrun.c:6597:1: error: initializing argument 1 of ‘void sig_print_info(gdb_signal)’ [-fpermissive]
sig_print_info (enum gdb_signal oursig)
^
gdb/infrun.c: In function ‘void do_restore_infcall_suspend_state_cleanup(void*)’:
gdb/infrun.c:7164:39: error: invalid conversion from ‘void*’ to ‘infcall_suspend_state*’ [-fpermissive]
restore_infcall_suspend_state (state);
^
so that the compiler carries on compiling the file. -Werror still
catches the warnings, so nothing is lost, only our lifes are made
easier by concentrating on getting other more important things out of
the way first.
There's no way to quiet those warnings. Until they're all fixed, when
building in C++ mode, -Werror is disabled by default.
. Adding -Wno-narrowing suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:439:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1l’ from ‘LONGEST {aka long int}’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
gdb/arm-linux-tdep.c:450:1: error: narrowing conversion of ‘-1’ from ‘int’ to ‘ULONGEST {aka long unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Werror=narrowing]
We can defer handling those until we target C++11.
. Adding -Wno-sign-compare suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/linux-record.c:1763:32: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
if (tmpulongest == tdep->fcntl_F_GETLK64)
^
. Adding -Wno-write-strings suppresses thousands of instances of this warning:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c: In function ‘void mi_cmd_var_show_attributes(char*, char**, int)’:
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:514:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "editable";
^
gdb/mi/mi-cmd-var.c:516:12: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
attstr = "noneditable";
^
For now, it's best to hide these warnings from view until we're
'-fpermissive'-clean, and can thus start building with -Werror.
The C compiler has always managed to build working GDBs with these
issues in the code, so a C++ compiler should too.

Converting GDB to be a C++ program, I stumbled on 'basename' issues,
like:
src/gdb/../include/ansidecl.h:169:64: error: new declaration ‘char* basename(const char*)’
/usr/include/string.h:597:26: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const char* basename(const char*)’
which I believe led to this bit in gold's configure.ac:
dnl We have to check these in C, not C++, because autoconf generates
dnl tests which have no type information, and current glibc provides
dnl multiple declarations of functions like basename when compiling
dnl with C++.
AC_CHECK_DECLS([basename, ffs, asprintf, vasprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strverscmp])
These checks IIUC intend to generate all the HAVE_DECL_FOO symbols
that libiberty.h and ansidecl.h check.
GDB is missing these checks currently, which results in the conflict
shown above.
This adds an m4 file that both GDB and GDBserver's configury use to
pull in the autoconf checks that libiberty clients needs done in order
to use these libiberty.h/ansidecl.h.

.decr_pc_after_break is never higher than .breakpoint_len, so use
.breakpoint_len directly. Based on idea from Yao here:

* linux-low.c (linux_wait_1): When incrementing the PC past a
program breakpoint always use the_low_target.breakpoint_len as
increment, rather than the maximum between that and
the_low_target.decr_pc_after_break.
I'm going to add an alternate mechanism of breakpoint trap
identification to 'check_stopped_by_breakpoint' that does not rely on
checking the instruction at PC. The mechanism currently used to tell
whether we're stepping over a permanent breakpoint doesn't fit in that
new method. This patch redoes the whole logic in a different way that
works with both old and new methods, in essence moving the "stepped
permanent breakpoint" detection "one level up". It makes lower level
check_stopped_by_breakpoint always the adjust the PC, and then has
linux_wait_1 advance the PC past the breakpoint if necessary. This
ends up being better also because this now handles
non-decr_pc_after_break targets too. Before, such targets would get
stuck forever reexecuting the breakpoint instruction.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

That was waitpid returning -1 / EINTR. We don't see that when testing
with unix/-m32 (native debugging). Turns out to be that when
debugging a 32-bit inferior, a 64-bit GDBserver is reading/writing
$orig_eax from/to the wrong ptrace register buffer offset. When
gdbserver is 64-bit, the ptrace register buffer is in 64-bit layout,
so the register is found at "ORIG_EAX * 8", not at "ORIG_EAX * 4".

TL;DR - GDB can hang if something refreshes the thread list out of the
target while the target is running. GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter.
The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore.
Long version:
Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is
still exposing latent non-stop bugs.
I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when
we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each
time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all
threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting
in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list
refreshes while some threads in the target are running.
The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue,
based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a
breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was
doing when testing multi-create.exp.
The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test
to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop,
it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me.
The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is
libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the
inferior.
Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target,
libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a
cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop.
The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in
glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are
simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are
embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer
of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel
"head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists;
thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both
simultaneously.
So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are
threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads.
Before:
stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> (&stack_cache)
After:
stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache)
td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and
iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the
list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to
stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache
list is empty.
For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread
object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next"
pointer.
In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating
thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread
C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list.
Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and
there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy
of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread
C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already
exited, and is now in the stack cache list.
After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which
because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another
thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck
in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread
in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the
terminating condition).
Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection
to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips
calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible
that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to
break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than
once.
Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need
td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE.
We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating
(thread_from_lwp), so use that more.

Another fix I'm working made schedlock.exp fail with gdbserver
frequently. Looking deeper, it turns out to be a pre-existing bug.
status_pending_p_callback is filtering out LWPs incorrectly. The
result is that that sometimes status_pending_p_callback returns a
pending event for an LWP that isn't expected, and then GDBserver gets
very confused.
E.g,. when doing a step-over, linux_wait_for_event is called with a
particular LWP's ptid, meaning events for all other LWPs should be
left pending, but here we see it retuning an event for some other LWP:
linux_wait_1: [<all threads>]

* linux-low.c (status_pending_p_callback): Use ptid_match.
When gdb creates a dummy frame to execute a function in the inferior,
the process may generate a SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL because the stack
is non executable. If the signal handler set in gdb has option print
or stop enabled for these signals gdb handles this correctly.
However, in the case of noprint and nostop the signal is short-circuited
and the inferior process is sent the signal directly. This causes the
inferior to crash because of gdb.
This patch adds a check for SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL so that these
signals are sent to gdb rather than short-circuited in the inferior.
gdb then handles them properly and the inferior process does not
crash.
This patch also fixes the same behavior in gdbserver.
Also added a small testcase to test the issue called catch-gdb-caused-signals.
This applies to Linux only, tested on Linux.

Since the starvation avoidance series
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-12/msg00631.html), both
GDB and GDBserver pull all events out of ptrace before deciding which
event to process.
There's one problem with that though. Because we resume new threads
immediately when we see a PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE event, if the program
constantly spawns threads fast enough, new threads can spawn threads
faster we can pull events out of the kernel, and thus we'd get stuck
in an infinite loop, never returning any event to the core to process.
I occasionally see this happen with the
attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test against gdbserver.
The fix is to delay resuming new threads until we've pulled out all
events out of the kernel.
On native, we already have the resume_stopped_resumed_lwps function
that knows to resume LWPs that are stopped with no event to report to
the core. So the patch just adds another use. GDBserver didn't have
the equivalent yet, so the patch adds one.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver (remote and
extended-remote).

This patch moves the shared code present on
gdb/linux-nat.c:linux_nat_create_inferior and
gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:linux_create_inferior to
nat/linux-personality.c. This code is responsible for disabling
address space randomization based on user setting, and using
<sys/personality.h> to do that. I decided to put the prototype of the
maybe_disable_address_space_randomization on nat/linux-osdata.h
because it seemed the best place to put it.
I regression-tested this patch on Fedora 20 x86_64, and found no
regressions.

This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBServer to detect 64-bit inferior
correctly. We find a problem that GDBServer is unable to detect on a
e5500 core processor. Current GDBServer assumes that MSR is a 64-bit
register, but MSR is a 32-bit register in Book III-E. This patch is
to fix this problem by checking the right bit in MSR, in order to handle
both Book III-S and Book III-E. In order to detect Book III-S and
Book III-E, we check the PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE from the host's HWCAP (by
getauxval on glibc >= 2.16. If getauxval doesn't exist, we implement
the fallback by parsing /proc/self/auxv), because it should an invariant
on the same machine cross different processes.
In order to share code, I add nat/ppc-linux.c for both GDB and
GDBserver side.

I wrote a test that attaches to a program that constantly spawns
short-lived threads, which exposed several issues. This is one of
them.
On GNU/Linux, attaching to a multi-threaded program sometimes prints
out warnings like:
...
[New LWP 20700]
warning: unable to open /proc file '/proc/-1/status'
[New LWP 20850]
[New LWP 21019]
...
That happens because when a thread exits, and is joined, glibc does:
nptl/pthread_join.c:
pthread_join ()
{
...
if (__glibc_likely (result == 0))
{
/* We mark the thread as terminated and as joined. */
pd->tid = -1;
...
/* Free the TCB. */
__free_tcb (pd);
}
So if we attach or interrupt the program (which does an implicit "info
threads") at just the right (or rather, wrong) time, we can find and
return threads in the libthread_db/pthreads thread list with kernel
thread ID -1. I've filed glibc PR nptl/17707 for this. You'll find
more info there.
This patch handles this as a special case in GDB.
This is actually more than just a cosmetic issue. lin_lwp_attach_lwp
will think that this -1 is an LWP we're not attached to yet, and after
failing to attach will try to check we were already attached to the
process, using a waitpid call, which in this case ends up being
"waitpid (-1, ...", which obviously results in GDB potentially
discarding an event when it shouldn't...

... instead of relying on libthread_db.
I wrote a test that attaches to a program that constantly spawns
short-lived threads, which exposed several issues. This is one of
them.
On Linux, we need to attach to all threads of a process (thread group)
individually. We currently rely on libthread_db to list the threads,
but that is problematic, because libthread_db relies on reading data
structures out of the inferior (which may well be corrupted). If
threads are being created or exiting just while we try to attach, we
may trip on inconsistencies in the inferior's thread list. To work
around that, when we see a seemingly corrupt list, we currently retry
a few times:
static void
thread_db_find_new_threads_2 (ptid_t ptid, int until_no_new)
{
...
if (until_no_new)
{
/* Require 4 successive iterations which do not find any new threads.
The 4 is a heuristic: there is an inherent race here, and I have
seen that 2 iterations in a row are not always sufficient to
"capture" all threads. */
...
That heuristic may well fail, and when it does, we end up with threads
in the program that aren't under GDB's control. That's obviously bad
and results in quite mistifying failures, like e.g., the process dying
for seeminly no reason when a thread that wasn't attached trips on a
breakpoint.
There's really no reason to rely on libthread_db for this nowadays
when we have /proc mounted. In that case, which is the usual case, we
can list the LWPs from /proc/PID/task/. In fact, GDBserver is already
doing this. The patch factors out that code that knows to walk the
task/ directory out of GDBserver, and makes GDB use it too.
Like GDBserver, the patch makes GDB attach to LWPs and _not_ wait for
them to stop immediately. Instead, we just tag the LWP as having an
expected stop. Because we can only set the ptrace options when the
thread stops, we need a new flag in the lwp structure to keep track of
whether we've already set the ptrace options, just like in GDBserver.
Note that nothing issues any ptrace command to the threads between the
PTRACE_ATTACH and the stop, so this is safe (unlike one scenario
described in gdbserver's linux-low.c).
When we attach to a program that has threads exiting while we attach,
it's easy to race with a thread just exiting as we try to attach to
it, like:
#1 - get current list of threads
#2 - attach to each listed thread
#3 - ooops, attach failed, thread is already gone
As this is pretty normal, we shouldn't be issuing a scary warning in
step #3.
When #3 happens, PTRACE_ATTACH usually fails with ESRCH, but sometimes
we'll see EPERM as well. That happens when the kernel still has the
thread in its task list, but the thread is marked as dead.
Unfortunately, EPERM is ambiguous and we'll get it also on other
scenarios where the thread isn't dead, and in those cases, it's useful
to get a warning. To distiguish the cases, when we get an EPERM
failure, we open /proc/PID/status, and check the thread's state -- if
the /proc file no longer exists, or the state is "Z (Zombie)" or "X
(Dead)", we ignore the EPERM error silently; otherwise, we'll warn.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a kernel race here. Sometimes I get
EPERM, and then the /proc state still indicates "R (Running)"... If
we wait a bit and retry, we do end up seeing X or Z state, or get an
ESRCH. I thought of making GDB retry the attach a few times, but even
with a 500ms wait and 4 retries, I still see the warning sometimes. I
haven't been able to identify the kernel path that causes this yet,
but in any case, it looks like a kernel bug to me. As this just
results failure to suppress a warning that we've been printing since
about forever anyway, I'm just making the test cope with it, and issue
an XFAIL.

Hi,
This patch is a follow-up of the following discussions:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-12/msg00421.html>
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-12/msg01293.html>
input_interrupt is currently emiting non-printable characters, which
is confusing the dg-extract-results.sh script. This is obviously not
a good thing, and, by following Pedro's advices here:
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-12/msg01320.html>
I adapted the function to print "client connection closed" when it
receives a NUL character, or use the "isprint" function to decide how
to print the received char. I tested it by running the testcases that
were printing the non-printable chars before:
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-1.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-2.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-3.exp
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-4.exp
gdb.threads/thread-execl.exp
and confirming that they print the right message. I tried a bit to
come up with a testcase for this, but failed, and since I did not want
to spend too much time on it, I'm sending the patch anyway.
Comments are welcome, as usual.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2014-12-29 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* remote-utils.c: Include ctype.h.
(input_interrupt): Explicitly handle the case when the char
received is the NUL byte. Improve the printing of non-ASCII
characters.
This patch enhances GDB on GNU/Linux systems in the situation where
we are debugging an inferior that was created from GDB (as opposed
to attached to), by asking the kernel to kill the inferior if GDB
terminates without doing it itself.
This would typically happen when GDB encounters a problem and
crashes, or when it gets killed by an external process. This can
be observed by starting a program under GDB, and then killing
GDB with signal 9. After GDB is killed, the inferior still remains.
This patch also fixes GDBserver similarly.
This fix is conditional on the kernel supporting the PTRACE_O_EXITKILL
feature. On older kernels, the behavior remains unchanged.

* nat/linux-ptrace.h (PTRACE_O_EXITKILL): Define if not
already defined.

(linux_enable_event_reporting): Add new parameter "attached".
Do not call ptrace with the PTRACE_O_EXITKILL if ATTACHED is

* linux-nat.c (linux_init_ptrace): Add parameter "attached".
Use it. Update function description.

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_low_filter_event): Update call to
linux_enable_event_reporting following the addition of
a new parameter to that function.
Tested on x86_64-linux, native and native-gdbserver.
I also verified by hand that the inferior gets killed when killing
GDB in the "run" case, while the inferior remains in the "attach"
case. Same for GDBserver.
When using aarch64 gdb with gdbserver, floating point registers are
not correctly displayed, as below:
(gdb) info registers fpsr fpcr
fpsr <unavailable>
fpcr <unavailable>
To fix these problems, the missing fpsr and fpcr registers are added
when floating point registers are read/write

Currently, when we receive a request to single-step one single thread
(Eg, when single-stepping out of a breakpoint), we use the
PTRACE_SINGLESTEP pthread request, which does single-step
the corresponding thread, but also resumes execution of all
other threads in the inferior.
This causes problems when debugging programs where another thread
receives multiple debug events while trying to single-step a specific
thread out of a breakpoint (with infrun traces turned on):

What happens is that GDB keeps sending requests to resume one specific
thread, and keeps receiving debugging events for other threads.
Things break down when the one of the other threads receives a debug
event for the second time (thread 146 in the example above).
This patch fixes the problem by making sure that only one thread
gets resumed, thus preventing the other threads from generating
an unexpected event.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* lynx-low.c (lynx_resume): Use PTRACE_SINGLESTEP_ONE if N == 1.
Remove FIXME comment about assumption about N.
This makes gdbserver actually provide values for the TDB registers
when the inferior was stopped in a transaction. The change in
linux-low.c is needed to suppress the warning for an unavailable TDB.
The test case 's390-tdbregs.exp' passes with this patch and fails
without.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (regsets_fetch_inferior_registers): Suppress the
warning upon ENODATA from ptrace.
* linux-s390-low.c (s390_store_tdb): New.
(s390_regsets): Add regset for NT_S390_TDB.
For GNU/Linux targets using the regsets interface, this change
supports regsets that can be read but not written. The S390 "last
break" regset is an example. So far it had been defined with
regset->set_request == PTRACE_GETREGSET, such that the respective
ptrace call does not cause any harm. Now we just skip the whole
read/modify/write sequence for regsets that do not define a
fill_function.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (regsets_store_inferior_registers): Skip regsets
without a fill_function.
* linux-s390-low.c (s390_fill_last_break): Remove.
(s390_regsets): Set fill_function to NULL for NT_S390_LAST_BREAK.
(s390_arch_setup): Use regset's size instead of fill_function for
loop end condition.
When fetch_inferior_registers does not update all registers, this
patch assures that no stale register values remain in the register
cache. On Linux platforms using the regsets interface, when one of
the ptrace calls used for fetching the register values returns an
error, this patch also avoids copying the random data returned from
ptrace into the register cache. All unfetched registers are marked
"unavailable" instead.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (regsets_fetch_inferior_registers): Do not invoke
the regset's store function when ptrace returned an error.
* regcache.c (get_thread_regcache): Invalidate register cache
before fetching inferior's registers.
Replace the while-loops in linux-low.c that iterate over regsets by
for-loops. This makes it clearer what is iterated over. Also, since
"continue" now moves on to the next iteration without having to
increment the regset pointer first, the code is slightly reduced.
In case of EIO the old code did not increment the regset pointer, but
iterated over the same (now disabled) regset again. This extra
iteration is now avoided.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (regsets_fetch_inferior_registers): Rephrase
while-loop as for-loop.
(regsets_store_inferior_registers): Likewise.

warning: Error removing breakpoint 1
Cannot remove breakpoints because program is no longer writable.
Further execution is probably impossible.
It turns out that the problem is caused by an intentional test
against a variable with an undefined value. After GDB receives
notification of the inferior stopping, it tries to remove the
breakpoint by sending a memory-write packet ("X10844,4:9 ").
This leads us to lynx_write_memory, where it tries to split
the memory-write into chunks of 4 bytes. And, in order to handle
writes which are not aligned on word boundaries, we have the
following code:
if (skip > 0 || truncate > 0)
/* We need to read the memory at this address in order to preserve
the data that we are not overwriting. */
lynx_read_memory (addr, (unsigned char *) &buf, xfer_size);
if (errno)
return errno;
(the comment explains what the code is about).
Unfortunately, the not-so-glaring error that we've made here is
that we're checking ERRNO regardless of whether we've called
lynx_read_memory. In our case, because we are writing 4 bytes
aligned on a word boundary, we do not call lynx_read_memory and
therefore test an ERRNO with an undefined value.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* lynx-low.c (lynx_write_memory): Put lynx_read_memory and
corresponding ERRNO check in same block.
As no place in the backends check cont_thread anymore, we can stop
setting and clearing it in places that resume the target and wait for
events. Instead simply clear it whenever a new GDB connects.

* server.c (cont_thread): Update comment.
(start_inferior, attach_inferior): No longer clear cont_thread.
(handle_v_cont): No longer set cont_thread.
(captured_main): Clear cont_thread each time a GDB connects.
There's code in linux_wait_1 that resumes all threads if the Hc thread
disappears. It's the wrong thing to do, as GDB has told GDBserver to
resume only one thread, because e.g., the user has scheduler-locking
enabled, or because GDB was stepping the program over a breakpoint.
Resuming all threads behind GDB's back can't be good in either case.
The right thing to do is to detect that that the (only) resumed thread
is gone, and let GDB know about it. The Linux backend is already
doing that nowadays, since:
commit fa96cb382c
Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Feb 27 14:30:08 2014 +0000
Teach GDBserver's Linux backend about no unwaited-for children (TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED).
The backend detects that all resumed threads have disappeared, and
returns TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED to the core of GDBserver, which
then reports an error to GDB.
There's no need to frob the passed in ptid to wait for the continue
thread either -- linux_wait_for_event only returns events for resumed
threads.
The badness (of resuming threads) can actually be observed in the
testsuite, if we force-disable vCont support in GDBserver -- before
the patch, gdb.threads/no-unwaited-for-left.exp hangs if we disable
vCont:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
FAIL: gdb.threads/no-unwaited-for-left.exp: continue to breakpoint: break-here (timeout)

with or without vCont support:

* linux-low.c (linux_wait_1): Don't force a wait for the Hc
thread, and don't resume all threads if the Hc thread has exited.
The target->request_interrupt callback implements the handling for
ctrl-c. User types ctrl-c in GDB, GDB sends a \003 to the remote
target, and the remote targets stops the program with a SIGINT, just
like if the user typed ctrl-c in GDBserver's terminal.
The trouble is that using kill_lwp(signal_pid, SIGINT) sends the
SIGINT directly to the program's main thread. If that thread has
exited already, then that kill won't do anything.
Instead, send the SIGINT to the process group, just like GDB
does (see inf-ptrace.c:inf_ptrace_stop).
gdb.threads/leader-exit.exp is extended to cover the scenario. It
fails against GDBserver before the patch.

Don't use debug_reg_state for both:
* "intent" - what we want the debug registers to look like
* "reality" - what/which were the contents of the DR registers when
the event triggered
Reserve it for the former only, like in the GNU/Linux port.
Otherwise the core x86 debug registers code can get confused if the
inferior itself changes the debug registers since GDB last set them.
This is also a requirement for being able to set watchpoints while the
target is running, if/when we get to it on Windows. See the big
comment in x86_dr_stopped_data_address.
Seems to me this may also fixes propagating watchpoints to all threads
-- continue_one_thread only calls win32_set_thread_context (what
copies the DR registers to the thread), if something already fetched
the thread's context before. Something else may be masking this
issue, I haven't checked.
Smoke tested by running gdbserver under Wine, connecting to it from
GNU/Linux, and checking that I could trigger a watchpoint as expected.
Joel tested it on x86-windows using AdaCore's testsuite.

the cause is that GDBserver doesn't cancel the breakpoint if the stop
signal is SIGILL. The kernel used here is a little old, 2.6.x, and
doesn't translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP when program hits breakpoint
instruction (which is an illegal instruction actually). GDB and
GDBserver can translate SIGILL to SIGTRAP under certain circumstance,
so it is not a problem here. See gdbserver/linux-low.c:linux_wait_1
/* If this event was not handled before, and is not a SIGTRAP, we
report it. SIGILL and SIGSEGV are also treated as traps in case
a breakpoint is inserted at the current PC. If this target does
not support internal breakpoints at all, we also report the
SIGTRAP without further processing; it's of no concern to us. */

&& (*the_low_target.breakpoint_at) (event_child->stop_pc))));
However, SIGILL and SIGSEGV is not considered when cancelling
breakpoint, which causes the fail above. That is, when GDB is doing
software single step on address ADDR, both thread A and thread B hits the
software single step breakpoint, and get SIGILL. GDB selects the event
from thread A, removes the software single step breakpoint, and resume
the program. The event (SIGILL) from thread B is reported to GDB, but
GDB doesn't regard this SIGILL as SIGTRAP, because the breakpoint on
address ADDR was removed, so GDB reports "Program received signal
SIGILL".
The patch is to allow calling cancel_breakpoint if the signal is
SIGILL and SIGSEGV. This patch fixes the fail above. Likewise, event
lwp selection should honour SIGILL and SIGSEGV too.

In gdb/gdbserver/Makefile.in, IPAGENT_CFLAGS is defined using
an expression which references $(CPPFLAGS). But CPPFLAGS isn't
actually defined.
This patch first adds a CPPFLAGS definition, so as to inherit
the value passed at configure time (if any). And it then makes it
part of INTERNAL_CFLAGS_BASE, instead. There is no reason that
CPPFLAGS be useful for a certain class of source files, and not
the rest. This is also consistent with what's done in GDB.

GDB has a function named "current_inferior" and gdbserver has a global
variable named "current_inferior", but the two are not equivalent;
indeed, gdbserver does not have any real equivalent of what GDB calls
an inferior. What gdbserver's "current_inferior" is actually pointing
to is a structure describing the current thread. This commit renames
current_inferior as current_thread in gdbserver to clarify this. It
also renames the function "set_desired_inferior" to "set_desired_thread"

gdb/ChangeLog:
* target/target.h: New file.
* Makefile.in (HFILES_NO_SRCDIR): Add target/target.h.
* target.h: Include target/target.h.
(target_read_memory, target_write_memory): Don't declare.
* target.c (target_read_uint32): New function.

[!GDBSERVER]: Don't include target.h.
(helper_thread_id): Type changed to uint32_t.
(agent_get_helper_thread_id): Use target_read_uint32.
(agent_run_command): Always use target_read_memory and
target_write_memory.
(agent_capability): Type changed to uint32_t.
(agent_capability_check): Use target_read_uint32.

(target_write_memory): New functions.
This commit adds a new global flag show_debug_regs to common-debug.h
to replace the flag debug_hw_points used by gdbserver and by the
Linux x86 and AArch64 ports, and to replace the flag maint_show_dr
used by the Linux MIPS port.
Note that some debug printing in the AArch64 port was enabled only if
debug_hw_points > 1 but no way to set debug_hw_points to values other
than 0 and 1 was provided; that code was effectively dead. This
commit enables all debug printing if show_debug_regs is nonzero, so
the AArch64 output will be more verbose than previously.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/common-debug.h (show_debug_regs): Declare.
* common/common-debug.c (show_debug_regs): Define.
* aarch64-linux-nat.c (debug_hw_points): Don't define. Replace
all uses with show_debug_regs. Replace all uses that considered
debug_hw_points as a multi-value integer with straight boolean
uses.
* x86-nat.c (debug_hw_points): Don't define. Replace all uses
with show_debug_regs.
* nat/x86-dregs.c (debug_hw_points): Don't declare. Replace
all uses with show_debug_regs.
* mips-linux-nat.c (maint_show_dr): Don't define. Replace all
uses with show_debug_regs.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.h (debug_hw_points): Don't declare.
* server.c (debug_hw_points): Don't define. Replace all uses
with show_debug_regs.
* linux-aarch64-low.c (debug_hw_points): Don't define. Replace
all uses with show_debug_regs.
This patch fixes the routines to collect and supply ptrace registers on ppc64le
gdbserver. Originally written for big endian arch, they were causing several
issues on little endian. With this fix, the number of unexpected failures in
the testsuite dropped from 263 to 72 on ppc64le.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog
* linux-ppc-low.c (ppc_collect_ptrace_register): Adjust routine to take
endianness into account.
(ppc_supply_ptrace_register): Likewise.
PTRACE_PEEKUSER can return -1, which is usually used to determine whether
a system call has reported an error, so errno must be used alone to
determine whether an error occurred. However errno isn't modified by a
successful system call so it must be reset to a known value (0) before the
syscall call.
Add the missing errno reset when reading the DSP_CONTROL register in the
native MIPS Linux backend and the MIPS gdbserver backend.
gdb/:
* mips-linux-nat.c (mips_linux_read_description): Reset errno to 0
prior to reading DSP_CONTROL with PTRACE_PEEKUSER ptrace call.
gdb/gdbserver/:
* linux-mips-low.c (mips_read_description): Reset errno to 0 prior
to reading DSP_CONTROL with PTRACE_PEEKUSER ptrace call.
The loop macro ALL_DEBUG_REGISTERS does not iterate over the status or
control registers, so its name is misleading. This commit renames it
as ALL_DEBUG_ADDRESS_REGISTERS and updates all uses. This commit also
updates its loop conditions to an equivalent but better form, and
makes two functions use it that had previously hardwired the loop.
A comment on a related field in the x86_debug_reg_state structure is
also updated to reflect that the field refers specifically to address
registers only.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* nat/x86-dregs.h (ALL_DEBUG_REGISTERS): Renamed as...
(ALL_DEBUG_ADDRESS_REGISTERS): New macro. All uses updated.
Loop conditions changed to equivalent form.
(struct x86_debug_reg_state): Updated dr_ref_count comment.
* x86-linux-nat.c (x86_linux_prepare_to_resume): Use
ALL_DEBUG_ADDRESS_REGISTERS.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-x86-low.c (x86_linux_prepare_to_resume): Use
ALL_DEBUG_ADDRESS_REGISTERS.
