The new convenience functions $_gdb_setting and $_gdb_setting_str
provide access to the GDB settings in user-defined commands.
Similarly, $_gdb_maint_setting and $_gdb_maint_setting_str
provide access to the GDB maintenance settings.
The patch was developed following a comment of Eli about the
'set may-call-functions'. Eli said that user-defined functions
should have a way to change their behavior according to this setting.
Rather than have a specialized $_may_call_functions, this patch
implements a general way to access any GDB setting.
Compared to doing such access via Python 'gdb.parameter' and/or
'gdb.execute("set somesetting tosomevalue"):
* The 'with' command is much better than the above python usage:
if the user types C-c or an error happens between the set pagination off
and the python "set pagination on", the above python
does not restore the original setting.
* Effectively, with the "gdb.parameter" python one liner, it is possible to do
simple 'if' conditions, such as set and restore pagination.
But mixing the "python if" within canned
sequence of commands is cumbersome for non trivial combinations.
E.g. if several commands have to be done for a certain condition
accessed from python, I guess something like will be needed:
python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some command")
python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some other command")
python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some different command")
(without speaking about nested "if-s").
With the convenience function:
if $_gdb_setting("some_setting")
some command
some other command
some different command
end
Integer settings (for example print elements) will also be more difficult
to use.
For example, a user defined function that scans and prints a linked list
might want to use the value of "set print elements" to stop printing
the linked list.
Doing that by mixing python expression/if is likely doable, but seems
not easy with the above one liners.
So, in summary, the $_gdb_setting and $_gdb_setting_str avoids to have the
heterogeneous mix of python and GDB commands in one single script
(and of course, it works even if python is not configured, but that
must be an unusual setup I guess).

With this patch, the help docs now respect 2 invariants:
* The first line of a command help is terminated by a '.' character.
* The last character of a command help is not a newline character.
Note that the changes for the last invariant were done by Tom, as part of :
[PATCH] Remove trailing newlines from help text
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-06/msg00050.html
but some occurrences have been re-introduced since then.
Some help docs had to be rephrased/restructured to respect the above
invariants.
Before this patch, print_doc_line was printing the first line
of a command help documentation, but stopping at the first '.'
or ',' character.
This was giving inconsistent results :
* The first line of command helps was sometimes '.' terminated,
sometimes not.
* The first line of command helps was not always designed to be
readable/understandable/unambiguous when stopping at the first
'.' or ',' character.
This e.g. created the following inconsistencies/problems:
< catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names
< down-silently -- Same as the `down' command
while the new help is:
> catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions, when raised.
> catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions, when handled.
> catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names, groups and/or numbers.
> down-silently -- Same as the `down' command, but does not print anything.
Also, the command help doc should not be terminated by a newline
character, but this was not respected by all commands.
The cli-option -OPT framework re-introduced some occurences.
So, the -OPT build help framework was changed to not output newlines at the
end of %OPTIONS% replacement.
This patch changes the help documentations to ensure the 2 invariants
given above.
It implied to slightly rephrase or restructure some help docs.
Based on the above invariants, print_doc_line (called by
'apropos' and 'help' commands to print the first line of a command
help) now outputs the full first line of a command help.
This all results in a lot of small changes in the produced help docs.
There are less code changes than changes in the help docs, as a lot
of docs are produced by some code (e.g. the remote packet usage settings).

( See original discussion and prototype here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-05/msg00570.html )
(gdb) help with
Temporarily set SETTING to VALUE, run COMMAND, and restore SETTING.
Usage: with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
Usage: w SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command.
SETTING is any setting you can change with the "set" subcommands.
E.g.:
with language pascal -- print obj
with print elements unlimited -- print obj
As can be seen above, the "with" command is just like "set", but
instead of setting the setting permanently, it sets the setting, runs
a command and then restores the setting.
(gdb) p g_s
$1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3}
(gdb) with language ada -- print g_s
$2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3)
Warning: the current language does not match this frame.
(gdb) show language
The current source language is "auto; currently c".
(gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object on -- print 1
$3 = 1
You can shorten things a bit though, as long as unambiguous. So this:
(gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object off -- print 1
is the same as:
(gdb) w p el 100 -- w p o 0 -- p 1
Note that the patch adds a "w" alias for "with", as "w" is not
currently taken:
(gdb) w
Ambiguous command "w": watch, wh, whatis, where, while, while-stepping, winheight, ws.
Let me know if you'd prefer to reserve "w" for one of the other
commands above. IMHO, this command will end up being used frequently
enough that it deserves the "w" shorthand.
A nice feature is that this is fully integrated with TAB-completion:
(gdb) with p[TAB]
pagination print prompt python
(gdb) with print [TAB]
address max-depth static-members
array max-symbolic-offset symbol
array-indexes null-stop symbol-filename
asm-demangle object symbol-loading
demangle pascal_static-members thread-events
elements pretty type
entry-values raw union
frame-arguments repeats vtbl
inferior-events sevenbit-strings
(gdb) with print [TAB]
(gdb) with print elements unlimited -- thread apply all -[TAB]
-ascending -c -q -s
(gdb) with print elements unlimited -- print -[TAB]
-address -max-depth -repeats -vtbl
-array -null-stop -static-members
-array-indexes -object -symbol
-elements -pretty -union
The main advantage of this new command compared to command options,
like the new "print -OPT", is that this command works with any
setting, and, it works nicely when you want to override a setting
while running a user-defined command, like:
(gdb) with print pretty -- usercmd
The disadvantage is that it isn't as compact or easy to type. I think
of command options and this command as complementary. I think that
even with this new command, it makes sense to continue developing the
command options in the direction of exposing most-oft-used settings as
command options.
Inspired by Philippe's "/" command proposal, if no command is
specified, then the last command is re-invoked, under the overridden
setting:
(gdb) p g_s
$1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3}
(gdb) with language ada
$2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3)
Warning: the current language does not match this frame.
Note: "with" requires "--" to separate the setting from the command.
It might be possible to do without that, but, I haven't tried it yet,
and I think that this can go in without it. We can always downgrade
to making "--" optional if we manage to make it work.
On to the patch itself, the implementation of the command is simpler
than one might expect. A few details:
- I factored out a bit from pipe_command into repeat_previous
directly, because otherwise I'd need to copy&paste the same code and
same error message in the with command.
- The parse_cli_var_uinteger / parse_cli_var_zuinteger_unlimited /
do_set_command changes are necessary since we can now pass an empty
string as argument.
- do_show_command was split in two, as a FIXME comment suggests, but
for a different reason: we need to get a string version of a "set"
command's value, and we already had code for that in
do_show_command. That code is now factored out to the new
get_setshow_command_value_string function.
- There's a new "maint with" command added too:
(gdb) help maint with
Like "with", but works with "maintenance set" variables.
Usage: maintenance with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND]
With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command.
SETTING is any setting you can change with the "maintenance set"
subcommands.
"with" and "maint with" share 99% of the implementation.
This might be useful on its own, but it's also useful for testing,
since with this, we can use the "maint set/show test-settings"
settings for exercising the "with" machinery with all the command
type variants (all enum var_types). This is done in the new
gdb/base/with.exp testcase.
The documentation bits are originally based on Philippe's docs for the
"/" command, hence the attribution in the ChangeLog.

This commit adds a generic command options framework, that makes it
easy enough to add '-'-style options to commands in a uniform way,
instead of each command implementing option parsing in its own way.
Options are defined in arrays of option_def objects (for option
definition), and the same options definitions are used for supporting
TAB completion, and also for generating the relevant help fragment of
the "help" command. See the gdb::options::build_help function, which
returns a string with the result of replacing %OPTIONS% in a template
string with an auto-generated "help" string fragment for all the
passed-in options.
Since most options in GDB are in the form of "-OPT", with a single
dash, this is the format that the framework supports.
I like to think of gdb's "-OPT" as the equivalent to getopt's long
options format ("--OPT"), and gdb's "/" as the equivalent to getopt's
short options format. getopt's short options format allows mixing
several one-character options, like "ls -als", kind of similar to
gdb's "x /FMT" and "disassemble /MOD", etc. While with gdb's "-"
options, the option is expected to have a full name, and to be
abbreviatable. E.g., "watch -location", "break -function main", etc.
This patch only deals with "-" options. The above comment serves more
to disclose why I don't think we should support mixing several
unrelated options in a single "-" option invocation, like "thread
apply -qcs" instead of "thread apply -q -c -s".
The following patches will add uses of the infrastructure to several
key commands. Most notably, "print", "compile print", "backtrace",
"frame apply" and "thread apply". I tried to add options to several
commands in order to make sure the framework didn't leave that many
open holes open.
Options use the same type as set commands -- enum var_types. So
boolean options are var_boolean, enum options are var_enum, etc. The
idea is to share code between settings commands and command options.
The "print" options will be based on the "set print" commands, and
their names will be the same. Actually, their definitions will be the
same too. There is a function to create "set/show" commands from an
array for option definitions:
/* Install set/show commands for options defined in OPTIONS. DATA is
a pointer to the structure that holds the data associated with the
OPTIONS array. */
extern void add_setshow_cmds_for_options (command_class cmd_class, void *data,
gdb::array_view<const option_def> options,
struct cmd_list_element **set_list,
struct cmd_list_element **show_list);
That will be used by several following patches.
Other features:
- You can use the "--" delimiter to explicitly indicate end of
options. Several existing commands use this token sequence for
this effect already, so this just standardizes it.
- You can shorten option names, as long as unambiguous. Currently,
some commands allow this (e.g., break -function), while others do
not (thread apply all -ascending). As GDB allows abbreviating
command names and other things, it feels more GDB-ish to allow
abbreviating option names too, to me.
- For boolean options, 0/1 stands for off/on, just like with boolean
"set" commands.
- For boolean options, "true" is implied, just like with boolean "set
commands.
These are the option types supported, with a few examples:
- boolean options (var_boolean). The option's argument is optional.
(gdb) print -pretty on -- *obj
(gdb) print -pretty off -- *obj
(gdb) print -p -- *obj
(gdb) print -p 0 -- *obj
- flag options (like var_boolean, but no option argument (on/off))
(gdb) thread apply all -s COMMAND
- enum options (var_enum)
(gdb) bt -entry-values compact
(gdb) bt -e c
- uinteger options (var_uinteger)
(gdb) print -elements 100 -- *obj
(gdb) print -e 100 -- *obj
(gdb) print -elements unlimited -- *obj
(gdb) print -e u -- *obj
- zuinteger-unlimited options (var_zuinteger_unlimited)
(gdb) print -max-depth 100 -- obj
(gdb) print -max-depth -1 -- obj
(gdb) print -max-depth unlimited -- obj
Other var_types could be supported, of course. These were just the
types that I needed for the commands that I ported over, in the
following patches.
It was interesting (and unfortunate) to find that we need at least 3
different modes to cover the existing commands:
- Commands that require ending options with "--" if you specify any
option: "print" and "compile print".
- Commands that do not want to require "--", and want to error out if
you specify an unknown option (i.e., an unknown argument that starts
with '-'): "compile code" / "compile file".
- Commands that do not want to require "--", and want to process
unknown options themselves: "bt", because of "bt -COUNT",
"thread/frame apply", because "-" is a valid command.
The different behavior is encoded in the process_options_mode enum,
passed to process_options/complete_options.
For testing, this patch adds one representative maintenance command
for each of the process_options_mode values, that are used by the
testsuite to exercise the options framework:
(gdb) maint test-options require-delimiter
(gdb) maint test-options unknown-is-error
(gdb) maint test-options unknown-is-operand
and adds another command to help with TAB-completion testing:
(gdb) maint show test-options-completion-result
See their description at the top of the maint-test-options.c file.
Docs/NEWS are in a patch later in the series.

We currently accept "o" with boolean/auto-boolean commands, taking it

might have been a typo.
This commit makes gdb error out. We now get:

This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
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.

This renames a few functions -- skip_spaces_const,
skip_to_space_const, get_number_const, extract_arg_const -- to drop
the "_const" suffix and instead rely on overloading.
This makes future const fixes simpler by reducing the number of lines
that must be changed. I think it is also not any less clear, as all
these functions have the same interface as their non-const versions by
design. Furthermore there's an example of using an overload in-tree
already, namely check_for_argument.
This patch was largely created using some perl one-liners; then a few
fixes were applied by hand.

This patch changes various places to use ui_out_emit_tuple,
eliminating a number of cleanups. This patch only tackles "easy"
cases, which are ones where the cleanups in question were
block-structured and did not involve any changes other than the
obvious replacement.

This patch starts from the desire to eliminate
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete, but then goes beyond. It makes ui_file &
friends a real C++ class hierarchy, and switches temporary
ui_file-like objects to stack-based allocation.
- mem_fileopen -> string_file
mem_fileopen is replaced with a new string_file class that is treated
as a value class created on the stack. This alone eliminates most
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete calls, and, simplifies code a whole lot
(diffstat shows around 1k loc dropped.)
string_file's internal buffer is a std::string, thus the "string" in
the name. This simplifies the implementation much, compared to
mem_fileopen, which managed growing its internal buffer manually.
- ui_file_as_string, ui_file_strdup, ui_file_obsavestring all gone
The new string_file class has a string() method that provides direct
writable access to the internal std::string buffer. This replaced
ui_file_as_string, which forced a copy of the same data the stream had
inside. With direct access via a writable reference, we can instead
move the string out of the string_stream, avoiding deep string
copying.
Related, ui_file_xstrdup calls are replaced with xstrdup'ping the
stream's string, and ui_file_obsavestring is replaced by
obstack_copy0.
With all those out of the way, getting rid of the weird ui_file_put
mechanism was possible.
- New ui_file::printf, ui_file::puts, etc. methods
These simplify / clarify client code. I considered splitting
client-code changes, like these, e.g.:
- stb = mem_fileopen ();
- fprintf_unfiltered (stb, "%s%s%s",
- _("The valid values are:\n"),
- regdesc,
- _("The default is \"std\"."));
+ string_file stb;
+ stb.printf ("%s%s%s",
+ _("The valid values are:\n"),
+ regdesc,
+ _("The default is \"std\"."));
In two steps, with the first step leaving fprintf_unfiltered (etc.)
calls in place, and only afterwards do a pass to change all those to
call stb.printf etc.. I didn't do that split, because (when I tried),
it turned out to be pointless make-work: the first pass would have to
touch the fprintf_unfiltered line anyway, to replace "stb" with
"&stb".
- gdb_fopen replaced with stack-based objects
This avoids the need for cleanups or unique_ptr's. I.e., this:
struct ui_file *file = gdb_fopen (filename, "w");
if (filename == NULL)
perror_with_name (filename);
cleanups = make_cleanup_ui_file_delete (file);
// use file.
do_cleanups (cleanups);
is replaced with this:
stdio_file file;
if (!file.open (filename, "w"))
perror_with_name (filename);
// use file.
- odd contorsions in null_file_write / null_file_fputs around when to
call to_fputs / to_write eliminated.
- Global null_stream object
A few places that were allocating a ui_file in order to print to
"nowhere" are adjusted to instead refer to a new 'null_stream' global
stream.
- TUI's tui_sfileopen eliminated. TUI's ui_file much simplified
The TUI's ui_file was serving a dual purpose. It supported being used
as string buffer, and supported being backed by a stdio FILE. The
string buffer part is gone, replaced by using of string_file. The
'FILE *' support is now much simplified, by making the TUI's ui_file
inherit from stdio_file.

Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Two missing consts, found while doing cxx-conversion work. We end up
with a char*, even though we pass a const char* to strstr. I am pushing
this as obvious.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-setshow.c (cmd_show_list): Constify a variable.
* linespec.c (linespec_lexer_lex_string): Same.
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 changes do_set_command and do_show_command to take const
arguments.
2014-06-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* cli/cli-setshow.c (do_set_command): Make "arg" const.
(do_show_command): Make "arg" const.
* cli/cli-setshow.h (do_set_command, do_show_command): Update.
This changes a parameter of parse_cli_boolean_value to be const.
2014-06-18 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* cli/cli-setshow.h (parse_cli_boolean_value): Update.
* cli/cli-setshow.c (parse_cli_boolean_value): Make "arg" const.
This removes deprecated_set_hook. Insight was the last user of this
hook, but I recently checked in a patch to have it use the
command_param_changed observer instead.
2014-01-13 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* cli/cli-setshow.c (do_set_command): Update.
* defs.h (deprecated_set_hook): Remove.
* top.c (deprecated_set_hook): Remove.
This removes gdb_string.h. This patch is purely mechanical. I
created it by running the two commands:
git rm common/gdb_string.h
perl -pi -e's/"gdb_string.h"/<string.h>/;' *.[chyl] */*.[chyl]

Currently, several commands take "0" or "-1" to mean "unlimited".
"show" knows when to print "unlimited":
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is 45.
(gdb) set height 0
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is unlimited.
However, the user can't herself specify "unlimited" directly:
(gdb) set height unlimited
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb)
This patch addresses that, by adjusting the set handler for all
integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited commands to accept literal
"unlimited". It also installs a completer. Presently, we complete on
symbols by default, and at
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00864.html> I've
shown a WIP prototype that tried to keep that half working in these
commands. In the end, it turned out to be more complicated than
justifiable, IMO. It's super rare to want to pass the value of a
variable/symbol in the program to a GDB set/show knob. That'll still
work, it's just that we won't assist with completion anymore. This
patch just sticks with the simple, and completes on "unlimited", and
nothing else. This simplification means that
"set he<tab><tab>"
is all it takes to get to:
"set height unlimited"
The patch then goes through all integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited
commands in the tree, and updates both the online help and the manual
to mention that "unlimited" is accepted in addition to 0/-1. In the
cases where the command had no online help text at all, this adds it.
I've tried to make the texts read in a way that "unlimited" is
suggested before "0" or "-1" is.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

The range validation added by
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00767.html
Changes things to allow setting the command to INT_MAX or UINT_MAX
directly, with signed and unsigned commands respectively. However,
that went a little bit too far, as in the cases of var_integer and
var_uinteger, those values are actually implementation detail. It's
better to not expose them in the interface, and have users assume
those values mean "unlimited" too, so to be safer to expand the range
of the commands in the future if we want to. Yes, it's pedantic, and
it's not likely users actually will do this, but MI frontends and
Python scripts might.

This is a regression from 7.5, introduced/exposed by:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-07/msg00259.html
There are a series of issues with this code.
It does:
unsigned int val = parse_and_eval_long (arg);
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(unsigned, usually 32-bit) while parse_and_eval_long returns a LONGEST
(usually 64-bit), so we lose precision without noticing:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
(gdb) show remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
The maximum number of target hardware watchpoints is 0.
While at it, print the invalid number with plongest, so the user sees
what GDB thought the number was:
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 0x100000000
integer 4294967296 out of range
So with "set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit -1", val ends converted
to 0xffffffff, which then fails the
else if (val >= INT_MAX)
error (_("integer %u out of range"), val);
test.
Looking at that INT_MAX check, we forbid INT_MAX itself, but we
shouldn't, as that does fit in 'int' -- we want to forbid values
_greater_ than INT_MAX (and less than INT_MIN, while at it):
(gdb) set remote hardware-watchpoint-limit 2147483647
integer 2147483647 out of range
The same problem is in the new var_zuinteger_unlimited code, which
also uses "int" for variable.
Also, when printing a 'signed int', we should use %d, not %u.
This adds a couple regression tests. Not completely thorough in checking
all kinds of invalid input; I'm saving more exaustive testing around
zXXinteger commands for something like new test-assisting commands
like "maint test cmd-zinteger -1", where testing would focus on the
command types, and thus be independent of particular user commands of
particular GDB features.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.
