badness_vector is currently an open coded vector. This reimplements
it as a std::vector.
This fixes a few leaks as well:
- find_oload_champ is leaking every badness vector calculated bar the
one returned.
- bv->rank is always leaked, since callers of rank_function only
xfree the badness_vector pointer, not bv->rank.

This replaces more pointer+length with gdb::array_view. This time,
around invoke_xmethod, and then propagating the fallout around, which
inevitably leaks to the overload resolution code.
There are several places in the code that want to grab a slice of an
array, by advancing the array pointer, and decreasing the length
pointer. This patch introduces a pair of new
gdb::array_view::slice(...) methods to make that convenient and clear.
Unit test included.

This patch started as an observation from valgrind that GDB appeared
to be loosing track of some memory associated with types. An example
valgrind stack would be:
24 bytes in 1 blocks are possibly lost in loss record 419 of 5,361
at 0x4C2EA1E: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:711)

by 0x727590: gdbarch_data(gdbarch*, gdbarch_data*) (gdbarch.c:5230)

When we look in make_function_type we find a call to TYPE_ZALLOC
(inside the INIT_FUNC_SPECIFIC macro). It is this call to TYPE_ZALLOC
that is allocating memory with xcalloc, that is then getting lost.
The problem is tht calling TYPE_ALLOC or TYPE_ZALLOC currently
allocates memory from either the objfile obstack or by using malloc.
The problem with this is that types are allocated either on the
objfile obstack, or on the gdbarch obstack.
As a result, if we discard a type associated with an objfile then
auxiliary data allocated with TYPE_(Z)ALLOC will be correctly
discarded. But, if we were ever to discard a gdbarch then any
auxiliary type data would be leaked. Right now there are very few
places in GDB where a gdbarch is ever discarded, but it shouldn't hurt
to close down these bugs as we spot them.
This commit ensures that auxiliary type data is allocated from the
same obstack as the type itself, which should reduce leaked memory.
The one problem case that I found with this change was in eval.c,
where in one place we allocate a local type structure, and then used
TYPE_ZALLOC to allocate some space for the type. This local type is
neither object file owned, nor gdbarch owned, and so the updated
TYPE_ALLOC code is unable to find an objstack to allocate space on.
My proposed solution for this issue is that the space should be
allocated with a direct call to xzalloc. We could extend TYPE_ALLOC
to check for type->gdbarch being null, and then fall back to a direct
call to xzalloc, however, I think that making this rare case of a
local type require special handling is not a bad thing, this serves to
highlight that clearing up the memory will require special handling
too.
This special case of a local type is interesting as the types owner
field (contained within the main_type) is completely null. While
reflecting on this I looked at how types use the get_type_arch
function. It seems clear that, based on how this is used, it is never
intended that null will be returned from this function. This only
goes to reinforce, how locally alloctaed types, with no owner, are
both special, and need to be handled carefully. To help spot errors
earlier, I added an assert into get_type_arch that the returned arch
is not null.
Inside gdbarch.c I found a few other places where auxiliary type data
was being allocated directly on the heap rather than on the types
obstack. I have fixed these to call TYPE_ALLOC now.
Finally, it is worth noting that as we don't clean up our gdbarch
objects yet, then this will not make much of an impact on the amount
of memory reported as lost at program termination time. Memory
allocated for auxiliary type information is still not freed, however,
it is now on the correct obstack. If we do ever start freeing our
gdbarch structures then the associated type data will be cleaned up
correctly.
Tested on X86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* eval.c (fake_method::fake_method): Call xzalloc directly for a
type that is neither object file owned, nor gdbarch owned.
* gdbtypes.c (get_type_gdbarch): Add an assert that returned
gdbarch is non-NULL.
(alloc_type_instance): Allocate non-objfile owned types on the
gdbarch obstack.
(copy_type_recursive): Allocate TYPE_FIELDS and TYPE_RANGE_DATA
using TYPE_ALLOC to ensure memory is allocated on the correct
obstack.
* gdbtypes.h (TYPE_ALLOC): Allocate space on either the objfile
obstack, or the gdbarch obstack.
(TYPE_ZALLOC): Rewrite using TYPE_ALLOC.
Add int24 and uint24. These are used by the upcoming S12Z target, but will be
needed for any arch which features 24 bit registers.
* gdb/gdbtypes.h (struct builtin_type): New members builtin_int24
and builtin_uint24;
* gdb/gdbtypes.c: Initialize them.
* gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo (Predefined Target Types): Mention types int24 and uint24.
The type alignment value is returned in 8-bit-bytes instead of target
memory addressable units. For example, on a target with 16-bit-bytes
where sizeof(int) == 1 (one addressable unit), alignof(int) currently
returns 2. After, this patch, it returns 1.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* arch-utils.c (default_type_align): Use type_length_units.
* gdbtypes.c (type_align): Use type_length_units.
TYPE_TAG_NAME has been an occasional source of confusion and bugs. It
seems to me that it is only useful for C and C++ -- but even there,
not so much, because at least with DWARF there doesn't seem to be any
way to wind up with a type where the name and the tag name are both
non-NULL and different.
So, this patch removes TYPE_TAG_NAME entirely. This should save a
little memory, but more importantly, it simplifies this part of gdb.
A few minor test suite adjustments were needed. In some situations
the new code does not yield identical output to the old code.

This removes a VEC from type.c, by using std::vector.
While doing this I also took the opportunity to change
types_deeply_equal to return bool. This caught some weird code in
typy_richcompare, now fixed.
And, since I was changing types_deeply_equal, it seemed like a good
idea to also change types_equal, so this patch includes that as well.
Tested by the buildbot.

This adds some basic type alignment support to gdb. It changes struct
type to store the alignment, and updates dwarf2read.c to handle
DW_AT_alignment. It also adds a new gdbarch method and updates
i386-tdep.c.
None of this new functionality is used anywhere yet, so tests will
wait until the next patch.

After the previous patch, on Fedora 27 (glibc 2.26), if you try
calling strlen in the inferior, you now get:
(top-gdb) p strlen ("hello")
'__strlen_avx2' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
This is correct, because __strlen_avx2 is written in assembly.
We can improve on this though -- if the final ifunc resolved/target
function has no debug info, but the ifunc _resolver_ does have debug
info, we can try extracting the final function's type from the type
that the resolver returns. E.g.,:
typedef size_t (*strlen_t) (const char*);
size_t my_strlen (const char *) { /* some implementation */ }
strlen_t strlen_resolver (unsigned long hwcap) { return my_strlen; }
extern size_t strlen (const char *s);
__typeof (strlen) strlen __attribute__ ((ifunc ("strlen_resolver")));
In the strlen example above, the resolver returns strlen_t, which is a
typedef for pointer to a function that returns size_t. "strlen_t" is
the type of both the user-visible "strlen", and of the the target
function that implements it.
This patch teaches GDB to extract that type.
This is done for actual inferior function calls (in infcall.c), and
for ptype (in eval_call). By the time we get to either of these
places, we've already lost the original symbol/minsym, and only have
values and types to work with. Hence the changes to c-exp.y and
evaluate_var_msym_value, to ensure that we propagate the ifunc
minsymbol's info.
The change to make ifunc symbols have no/unknown return type exposes a
latent problem -- gdb.compile/compile-ifunc.exp calls a no-debug-info
function, but we did not warn about it. The test is fixed by this
commit too.

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:
* testsuite/gdb.ada/dyn_stride.exp: Add "print a1(1)@3" test.
GCC PR83906 [1] is about a GCC/libstdc++ GDB/Python type printer
testcase failing randomly, as shown by running (in libstdc++'s
testsuite):
make check RUNTESTFLAGS=prettyprinters.exp=80276.cc
in a loop. Sometimes you get this:
FAIL: libstdc++-prettyprinters/80276.cc whatis p4
I.e., this:
type = std::unique_ptr<std::vector<std::unique_ptr<std::list<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >>[]>>[99]>
instead of this:
type = std::unique_ptr<std::vector<std::unique_ptr<std::list<std::string>[]>>[99]>
Jonathan Wakely tracked it on the printer side to this bit in
libstdc++'s type printer:
if self.type_obj == type_obj:
return strip_inline_namespaces(self.name)
This assumes the two types resolve to the same gdb.Type but some times
the comparison unexpectedly fails.
Running the testcase manually under Valgrind finds the problem in GDB:

That "bcmp" call is really a memcmp call in check_types_equal. The
problem is that gdb is memcmp'ing two objects that are equal in value:

In some cases objects of type range_bounds are memset when allocated,
but then their dynamic_prop low/high fields are copied over from some
template dynamic_prop object that wasn't memset. E.g.,
create_static_range_type's low/high locals are left with garbage in
the padding, and then that padding is copied over to the range_bounds
object's low/high fields.
At first, I considered making sure to always memset range_bounds
objects, thinking that maybe type objects are being put in some bcache
instance somewhere. But then I hacked bcache/bcache_full to poison
non-pod types, and made dynamic_prop a non-pod, and GDB still
compiled.
So given that, it seems safest to not assume padding will always be
memset, and instead treat them as regular value types, implementing
(in)equality operators and using those instead of memcmp.
This fixes the random FAILs in GCC's testcase.

(create_array_type_with_stride): Update.
* dwarf2read.c (set_die_type): Update.
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")

This patch introduces the new set of target floating-point handling routines
in target-float.{c,h}. In the end, the intention is that this file will
contain support for all operations in target FP format, fully replacing
both the current doublest.{c,h} and dfp.{c,h}.
To begin with, this patch only adds a target_float_is_zero routine,
which handles the equivalent of decimal_is_zero for both binary and
decimal FP. For the binary case, to avoid conversion to DOUBLEST,
this is implemented using the floatformat_classify routine.
However, it turns out that floatformat_classify actually has a bug
(it was not used to check for zero before), so this is fixed as well.
The new routine is used in both value_logical_not and valpy_nonzero.
There is one extra twist: the code previously used value_as_double
to convert to DOUBLEST and then compare against zero. That routine
performs an extra task: it detects invalid floating-point values
and raises an error. In any place where value_as_double is removed
in favor of some target-float.c routine, we need to replace that check.
To keep this check centralized in one place, I've added a new routine
is_floating_value, which returns a boolean determining whether a
value's type is floating point (binary or decimal), and if so, also
performs the validity check. Since we need to check whether a value
is FP before calling any of the target-float routines anyway, this
seems a good place to add the check without much code size overhead.
In some places where we only want to check for floating-point types
and not perform a validity check (e.g. for the *output* of an operation),
we can use the new is_floating_type routine (in gdbarch) instead.
The validity check itself is done by a new target_float_is_valid
routine in target-float, encapsulating floatformat_is_valid.

As a first small step to getting rid of doublest.h, this patch removes the
include of "floatformat.h" in "doublest.h". This is actually not needed
for the file itself. A few source files now need to include "floatformat.h"
directly, since they got it indirectly via "doublest.h" and still need it.
In reviewing which files need it, I found a number of files that include
"floatformat.h" directly without actually needing it at all. Similarly,
a number of files include "doublest.h" without needing it. I've also
removed those unnecessary include statements.

For historical reasons, the TYPE_FLOATFORMAT element is still set to hold
an array of two floatformat structs, one for big-endian and the other for
little-endian. When accessing the element via floatformat_from_type,
the code would check the type's byte order and return the appropriate
floatformat.
However, these days this is quite unnecessary, since the type's byte order
is already known at the time the type is allocated and the floatformat is
installed into TYPE_FLOATFORMAT. Therefore, we can just install the correct
version here.
Also, moves the (now trivially simple) floatformat_from_type accessor to
gdbtypes.{c,h}, since it doesn't really need to be in doublest.c now.

This changes the interfaces to init_type and arch_type to take the
type length in bits as input (instead of as bytes). The routines
assert that the length is a multiple of TARGET_CHAR_BIT.
For consistency, arch_flags_type is changed likewise, so that now
all type creation interfaces always use length in bits.
All callers are updated in the straightforward manner.
The assert actually found a bug in read_range_type, where the
init_integer_type routine was called with a wrong argument (probably
a bug introduced with the conversion to use init_integer_type).

An earlier commit made GDB no longer assume no-debug-info functions
return int. This commit gives the same treatment to variables.
Currently, you can end misled by GDB over output like this:
(gdb) p var
$1 = -1
(gdb) p /x var
$2 = 0xffffffff
until you realize that GDB is assuming that the variable is an "int",
because:
(gdb) ptype var
type = <data variable, no debug info>
You may try to fix it by casting, but that doesn't really help:
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var
$3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect
^^
That's incorrect output, because the variable was defined like this:
uint64_t var = 0x7fffffffffffffff;
^^
What happened is that with the cast, GDB did an int -> 'unsigned long
long' conversion instead of reinterpreting the variable as the cast-to
type. To get at the variable properly you have to reinterpret the
variable's address manually instead, with either:
(gdb) p /x *(unsigned long long *) &var
$4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
(gdb) p /x {unsigned long long} &var
$5 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
After this commit GDB does it for you. This is what you'll get
instead:
(gdb) p var
'var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var
$1 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
As in the functions patch, the "compile" machinery doesn't currently
have the cast-to type handy, so it continues assuming no-debug
variables have int type, though now at least it warns.
The change to gdb.cp/m-static.exp deserves an explanation:
- gdb_test "print 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \
+ gdb_test "print (int) 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \
That's printing the "sintvar" function local static of the
"gnu_obj_1::method()" method.
The problem with that test is that that "'S::method()::static_var'"
syntax doesn't really work in C++ as you'd expect. The way to make it
work correctly currently is to quote the method part, not the whole
expression, like:
(gdb) print 'gnu_obj_1::method()'::sintvar
If you wrap the whole expression in quotes, like in m-static.exp, what
really happens is that the parser considers the whole string as a
symbol name, but there's no debug symbol with that name. However,
local statics have linkage and are given a mangled name that demangles
to the same string as the full expression, so that's what GDB prints.
After this commit, and without the cast, the print in m-static.exp
would error out saying that the variable has unknown type:
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'
'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
TBC, if currently (even before this series) you try to print any
function local static variable of type other than int, you'll get
bogus results. You can see that with m-static.cc as is, even.
Printing the "svar" local, which is a boolean (1 byte) still prints as
"int" (4 bytes):
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
$1 = 1
(gdb) ptype 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
type = <data variable, no debug info>
This probably prints some random bogus value on big endian machines.
If 'svar' was of some aggregate type (etc.) we'd still print it as
int, so the problem would have been more obvious... After this
commit, you'll get instead:
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
... so at least GDB is no longer misleading. Making GDB find the real
local static debug symbol is the subject of the following patches. In
the end, it'll all "Just Work".

The fact that GDB defaults to assuming that functions return int, when
it has no debug info for the function has been a recurring source of
user confusion. Recently this came up on the errno pretty printer
discussions. Shortly after, it came up again on IRC, with someone
wondering why does getenv() in GDB return a negative int:
(gdb) p getenv("PATH")
$1 = -6185
This question (with s/getenv/random-other-C-runtime-function) is a FAQ
on IRC.
The reason for the above is:
(gdb) p getenv
$2 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x7ffff7751d80 <getenv>
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = int ()
... which means that GDB truncated the 64-bit pointer that is actually
returned from getent to 32-bit, and then sign-extended it:
(gdb) p /x -6185
$6 = 0xffffe7d7
The workaround is to cast the function to the right type, like:
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH")
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
IMO, we should do better than this.
I see the "assume-int" issue the same way I see printing bogus values
for optimized-out variables instead of "<optimized out>" -- I'd much
rather that the debugger tells me "I don't know" and tells me how to
fix it than showing me bogus misleading results, making me go around
tilting at windmills.
If GDB prints a signed integer when you're expecting a pointer or
aggregate, you at least have some sense that something is off, but
consider the case of the function actually returning a 64-bit integer.
For example, compile this without debug info:
unsigned long long
function ()
{
return 0x7fffffffffffffff;
}
Currently, with pristine GDB, you get:
(gdb) p function ()
$1 = -1 # incorrect
(gdb) p /x function ()
$2 = 0xffffffff # incorrect
maybe after spending a few hours debugging you suspect something is
wrong with that -1, and do:
(gdb) ptype function
type = int ()
and maybe, just maybe, you realize that the function actually returns
unsigned long long. And you try to fix it with:
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect
... which still produces the wrong result, because GDB simply applied
int to unsigned long long conversion. Meaning, it sign-extended the
integer that it extracted from the return of the function, to 64-bits.
and then maybe, after asking around on IRC, you realize you have to
cast the function to a pointer of the right type, and call that. It
won't be easy, but after a few missteps, you'll get to it:
..... (gdb) p /x ((unsigned long long(*) ()) function) ()
$666 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # finally! :-)
So to improve on the user experience, this patch does the following
(interrelated) things:
- makes no-debug-info functions no longer default to "int" as return
type. Instead, they're left with NULL/"<unknown return type>"
return type.
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = <unknown return type> ()
- makes calling a function with unknown return type an error.
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
- and then to make it easier to call the function, makes it possible
to _only_ cast the return of the function to the right type,
instead of having to cast the function to a function pointer:
(gdb) p (char *) getenv ("PATH") # now Just Works
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH") # continues working
$4 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
I.e., it makes GDB default the function's return type to the type
of the cast, and the function's parameters to the type of the
arguments passed down.
After this patch, here's what you'll get for the "unsigned long long"
example above:
(gdb) p function ()
'function' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # correct!
Note that while with "print" GDB shows the name of the function that
has the problem:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
This will be fixed in the next patch.

Calling a prototyped function via a function pointer with the right
prototype doesn't work correctly, if the called function requires
argument coercion... Like, e.g., with:
float mult (float f1, float f2) { return f1 * f2; }
(gdb) p mult (2, 3.5)
$1 = 7
(gdb) p ((float (*) (float, float)) mult) (2, 3.5)
$2 = 0
both calls should have returned the same, of course. The problem is
that GDB misses marking the type of the function pointer target as
prototyped...
Without the fix, the new test fails like this:
(gdb) p ((int (*) (float, float)) t_float_values2)(3.14159,float_val2)
$30 = 0
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/callfuncs.exp: p ((int (*) (float, float)) t_float_values2)(3.14159,float_val2)

The following patch fixes several outstanding overload resolution problems
with rvalue references and cv qualifiers in the test suite. The tests for
these problems typically passed with one compiler version and failed with
another. This behavior occurs because of the ordering of the overloaded
functions in the debug info. So the first best match "won out" over the
a subsequent better match.
One of the bugs addressed by this patch is the failure of rank_one_type to
account for type equality of two overloads based on CV qualifiers. This was
leading directly to problems evaluating rvalue reference overload quality,
but it is also highlighted in gdb.cp/oranking.exp, where two test KFAIL as
a result of this shortcoming.
I found the overload resolution code committed with the rvalue reference
patch (f9aeb8d49) needlessly over-complicated, and I have greatly simplified
it. This fixes some KFAILing tests in gdb.exp/rvalue-ref-overload.exp.

GDB is currently not aware that wchar_t is a built-in type in C++
mode. This is usually not a problem because the debug info describes
the type, so when you have a program loaded, you don't notice this.
However, if you try expressions involving wchar_t before a program is
loaded, gdb errors out:
(gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) p L"hello"
No type named wchar_t.
(gdb) ptype L"hello"
No type named wchar_t.
This commit teaches gdb about the type. After:
(gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
$1 = -1 L'\xffffffff'
(gdb) p L"hello"
$2 = L"hello"
(gdb) ptype L"hello"
type = wchar_t [6]
Unlike char16_t/char32_t, unfortunately, the underlying type of
wchar_t is implementation dependent, both size and signness. So this
requires adding a couple new gdbarch hooks.
I grepped the GCC code base for WCHAR_TYPE and WCHAR_TYPE_SIZE, and it
seems to me that the majority of the ABIs have a 4-byte signed
wchar_t, so that's what I made the default for GDB too. And then I
looked for which ports have a 16-bit and/or unsigned wchar_t, and made
GDB follow suit.

While the C++ standard says that char16_t and char32_t are unsigned types:
Types char16_t and char32_t denote distinct types with the same size,
signedness, and alignment as uint_least16_t and uint_least32_t,
respectively, in <cstdint>, called the underlying types.
... gdb treats them as signed currently:
(gdb) p (char16_t)-1
$1 = -1 u'\xffff'
There are actually two places in gdb that hardcode these types:
- gdbtypes.c:gdbtypes_post_init, when creating the built-in types,
seemingly used by the "x /s" command (judging from commit 9a22f0d0).
- dwarf2read.c, when reading base types with DW_ATE_UTF encoding
(which is what is used for these types, when compiling for C++11 and
up). Despite the comment, the type created does end up used.
Both places need fixing. But since I couldn't tell why dwarf2read.c
needs to create a new type, I've made it use the per-arch built-in
types instead, so that the types are only created once per arch
instead of once per objfile. That seems to work fine.
While writting the test, I noticed that the C++ language parser isn't
actually aware of these built-in types, so if you try to use them
without a program that uses them, you get:
(gdb) set language c++
(gdb) ptype char16_t
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype u"hello"
No type named char16_t.
(gdb) p u"hello"
No type named char16_t.
That's fixed by simply adding a couple entries to C++'s built-in types
array in c-lang.c. With that, we get the expected:
(gdb) ptype char16_t
type = char16_t
(gdb) ptype u"hello"
type = char16_t [6]
(gdb) p u"hello"
$1 = u"hello"

This patch introduces changes to rank_one_type() dealing with ranking an rvalue
reference type when selecting a best viable function from a set of candidate
functions. The 4 new added rules for rvalue references are:
1) An rvalue argument cannot be bound to a non-const lvalue reference parameter
and an lvalue argument cannot be bound to an rvalue reference parameter.
[C++11 13.3.3.1.4p3]
2) If a conversion to one type of reference is an identity conversion, and a
conversion to the second type of reference is a non-identity conversion, choose
the first type. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]
3) An rvalue should be first tried to bind to an rvalue reference, and then to
an lvalue reference. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]
4) An lvalue reference to a function gets higher priority than an rvalue
reference to a function. [C++11 13.3.3.2p3]
This patch is not exactly correct. See c++/15372 for tracking overload
resolution bugs.

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.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
This replaces most of the remaining ui_file_xstrdup calls with
ui_file_as_string calls. Whenever a call was replaced, that led to a
cascade of other necessary adjustments throughout, to make the code
use std::string instead of raw pointers. And then whenever I added a
std::string as member of a struct, I needed to adjust
allocation/destruction of said struct to use new/delete instead of
xmalloc/xfree.
The stopping point was once gdb built again. These doesn't seem to be
a way to reasonably split this out further.
Maybe-not-obvious changes:
- demangle_for_lookup returns a cleanup today. To get rid of that,
and avoid unnecessary string dupping/copying, this introduces a
demangle_result_storage type that the caller instantiates and
passes to demangle_for_lookup.
- Many methods returned a "char *" to indicate that the caller owns
the memory and must free it. Those are switched to return a
std::string instead. Methods that return a "view" into some
internal string return a "const char *" instead. I.e., we only
copy/allocate when necessary.

At this point, all TYPE_CODE_FLT types carry their floating-point format,
except for those creating from reading DWARF or stabs debug info. Those
will be addressed by this commit.
The main issue here is that we actually have to determine which floating-
point format to use. Currently, we only have the type length as input
to this decision. In the future, we may hopefully get --at least in
DWARF-- additional information to help disambiguate multiple different
formats of the same length. For now, we can still look at the type name
as a hint.
This decision logic is encapsulated in a gdbarch callback to allow
platform-specific overrides. The default implementation use the same
logic (compare type length against the various gdbarch_..._bit sizes)
that is currently implemented in floatformat_from_length.
With this commit, all platforms still use the default logic, so there
should be no actual change in behavior. A follow-on commit will add
support for __float128 on Intel and Power.
Once dwarf2read.c and stabsread.c make use of the new callback to
determine floating-point formats, we're now sure every TYPE_CODE_FLT
type will always carry its format. The commit therefore adds asserts
to verify_floatformat to ensure new code will continue to always
provide formats, and removes the code in floatformat_from_type that
used to handle types with a NULL TYPE_FLOATFORMAT.

init_type (and arch_integer_type) currently use a special hack to set the
TYPE_NOSIGN flag if the type name is exactly "char". This commit moves the
hack up to the callers of those routines.
The special case currently can hit only for types created from dwarf2read,
but read_base_type actually implements the "char" check itself, so it is
redundant to do it in init_type as well. (Note that stabsread.c and the
other type readers always pass NULL as name to init_type, so the special
case can never hit for those.)
A few other cases create pre-definded types with a hard-coded name of "char";
the commit simply moves setting the TYPE_NOSIGN flag to those places.
No functional change intended.

Now that init_type no longer takes a FLAGS argument, there is no user of
the TYPE_FLAGS_... enum values left. This commit removes them (and all
references to them in comments as well).
This is mostly a no-op, except for a change to the Python type printer,
which attempted to use them before. (As best as I can tell, this wasn't
really needed anyway, since it was only used to pretty-print type
*instance* flags, which only use the instance flags.)

This adds a number of helper routines for creating objfile-owned types;
these correspond 1:1 to the already existing helper routines for creating
gdbarch-owned types, and are intended to be used instead of init_type.
A shared fragment of init_float_type and arch_float_type is extracted into
a separate subroutine verify_subroutine.
The commit also brings the interface of init_type in line with the one for
arch_type. In particular, this means removing the FLAGS argument; callers
now set the required flags directly. (Since most callers use the new
helper routines, very few callers actually need to set any additional
flags directly any more.)
Note that this means all the TYPE_FLAGS_... defined are no longer needed
anywhere; they will be removed by a follow-on commit.
All users of init_type are changed to use on of the new helpers where
possible. No functional change intended.

gdbtypes provides a number of helper routines that can be called instead of
using arch_type directly to create a type of a particular kind. This patch
adds two additional such routines that have been missing so far, to allow

A type's TYPE_SPECIFIC_FIELD is supposed to be initialized as appropriate
for the type code. This does happen if the type is created via init_type,
but not if it created via arch_type.
Fixed by extracting the initialization logic into a new set_type_code
routine, which is then called from both places.

Fortran supports dynamic types for which bounds, size and location
can vary during their lifetime. As a result of the dynamic
behaviour, they have to be resolved at every query.
This patch will resolve the type of a structure field when it
is dynamic.

Fortran provide types whose values may be dynamically allocated
or associated with a variable under explicit program control.
The purpose of this commit is:
* to read allocated/associated DWARF tags and store them in
the dynamic property list of main_type.
* enable GDB to print the value of a dynamic array in Fortran
in case the type is allocated or associated (pointer to
dynamic array).
Examples:
(gdb) p vla_not_allocated
$1 = <not allocated>
(gdb) p vla_allocated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)
(gdb) p vla_ptr_not_associated
$1 = <not associated>
(gdb) p vla_ptr_associated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)
Add basic test coverage for most dynamic array use-cases in Fortran.
The commit contains the following tests:
* Ensure that values of Fortran dynamic arrays
can be evaluated correctly in various ways and states.
* Ensure that Fortran primitives can be evaluated
correctly when used as a dynamic array.
* Dynamic arrays passed to subroutines and handled
in different ways inside the routine.
* Ensure that the ptype of dynamic arrays in
Fortran can be printed in GDB correctly.
* Ensure that dynamic arrays in different states
(allocated/associated) can be evaluated.
* Dynamic arrays passed to functions and returned from
functions.
* History values of dynamic arrays can be accessed and
printed again with the correct values.
* Dynamic array evaluations using MI protocol.
* Sizeof output of dynamic arrays in various states.
The patch was tested using the test suite on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

Since the type whose name is being set is now being allocated on the
gdbarch obstack, we should allocate its TYPE_NAME on the obstack too.
This reduces the number of individual valgrind warnings for the command
"gdb gdb" from ~300 to ~150.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

* gdbarch.h: Regenerate.
* gdbtypes.c (arch_type): Use gdbarch_obstack_strdup.
Following commit 8f57eec2fb ("Use gdbarch obstack to allocate types in
alloc_type_arch") it is no longer the case that the type returned by
copy_type_recursive is allocated using malloc. Because the function
uses alloc_type_arch internally, the new type is now allocated on the
gdbarch associated with the type, and is thus owned by that gdbarch.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (copy_type_recursive): Update documentation.
Since the type whose name is being set is now being allocated on the
gdbarch obstack, we should allocate its TYPE_NAME on the obstack too.
This reduces the number of individual valgrind warnings for the command
"gdb gdb" from ~300 to ~150.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.h (gdbarch_obstack_strdup): Declare.
* gdbarch.c (gdbarch_obstack_strdup): Define.
* gdbtypes.c (arch_type): Use it.
For the command "gdb gdb" valgrind currently reports 100s of individual
memory leaks, 500 of which originate solely out of the function
alloc_type_arch. This function allocates a "struct type" associated
with the given gdbarch using malloc but apparently the types allocated
by this function are never freed.
This patch fixes these leaks by making the function alloc_type_arch
allocate these gdbarch-associated types on the gdbarch obstack instead
of on the general heap. Since, from what I can tell, the types
allocated by this function are all fundamental "wired-in" types, such
types would not benefit from more granular memory management anyway.
They would likely live as long as the gdbarch is alive so allocating
them on the gdbarch obstack makes sense.
With this patch, the number of individual vargrind warnings emitted for
the command "gdb gdb" drops from ~800 to ~300.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (alloc_type_arch): Allocate the type on the given
gdbarch obstack instead of on the heap. Update commentary
accordingly.
GDB's current behavior when dealing with non-local references in the
context of nested fuctions is approximative:
- code using valops.c:value_of_variable read the first available stack
frame that holds the corresponding variable (whereas there can be
multiple candidates for this);
- code directly relying on read_var_value will instead read non-local
variables in frames where they are not even defined.
This change adds the necessary context to symbol reads (to get the block
they belong to) and to blocks (the static link property, if any) so that
GDB can make the proper decisions when dealing with non-local varibale
references.

As Pedro suggested on gdb-patches@ (see
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-05/msg00714.html), this
change makes symbol lookup functions return a structure that includes
both the symbol found and the block in which it was found. This makes
it possible to get rid of the block_found global variable and thus makes
block hunting explicit.

This patch tries to clean up a bit the blur around the length field in
struct type, regarding its use with architectures with non-8-bits
addressable memory. It clarifies that the field is expressed in host
bytes, which is what is the closest to the current reality.
It also introduces a new function to get the length of the type in
target addressable memory units.

(struct type) <length>: Update comment.
When a dynamic array type contains a typedef-wrapped array, an assertion
failure occurs during type resolution. This is what happens in the
following Ada case:
type Rec_Type is record
I : Integer;
B : Boolean;
end record;
type Vec_Type is array (1 .. 4) of Rec_Type;
type Array_Type is array (Positive range <>) of Vec_Type;
If users try to print or even pass to an inferior call a variable A of
type Array_Type, GDB will raise an error:
(gdb) print a
../../src/gdb/gdbtypes.c:1807: internal-error:
resolve_dynamic_array: Assertion `TYPE_CODE (type) ==
TYPE_CODE_ARRAY' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
What happens is that during dynamic array type resolution, we first peel
TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF layers wrapping the array element type and check if
its type is itself TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. If it is, we pass the
typedef-wrapped type to a recursive call to resolve_dynamic_array
whereas this function expects only TYPE_CODE_ARRAY types.
This patch makes it pass the peeled type to the recursive call so that
type resolution can continue smoothly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_array): Pass the peeled element
type to the recursive call instead of the original (maybe
TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF) type.

In Ada, index types of arrays can be enumeration types, and enumeration
types can be non-contiguous. In which case the address of elements is
not given by the value of the index, but by its position in the enumeration
type.
In other words, in this example:
type Color is (Blue, Red);
for Color use (Blue => 8, Red => 12, Green => 16);
type A is array (Color) of Integer;
type B is array (1 .. 3) of Integer;
Arrays of type A and B will have the same layout in memory, even if
the enumeration Color has a hole in its set of integer value.
Since recently support for such a feature was in ada-lang.c, where the
array was casted to a regular continuous index range. We were losing
the information of index type. And this was not quite working for
subranges in variable-length fields; their bounds are expressed using
the integer value of the bounds, not its position in the enumeration,
and there was some confusion all over ada-lang.c as to whether we had
the position or the integer value was used for indexes.
The idea behind this patch is to clean this up by keeping the real
representation of these array index types and bounds when representing
the value, and only use the position when accessing the elements or
computing the length. This first patch fixes the printing of such
an array.
To the best of my knowledge, this feature only exists in Ada so it
should only affect this language.

This is the second part of enhancing the debugger to print the value
of arrays of records whose size is variable when only standard DWARF
info is available (no GNAT encoding). For instance:
subtype Small_Type is Integer range 0 .. 10;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) 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"));
Currently, GDB prints the following output:
(gdb) p a1
$1 = (
The error happens while the ada-valprint module is trying to print
the value of an element of our array. Because of the fact that
the array's element (type Record_Type) has a variant size, the DWARF
info for our array provide the array's stride:
<1><749>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<74a> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xb6d): pck__T18s
<74e> DW_AT_byte_stride : 16
<74f> DW_AT_type : <0x6ea>
And because our array has a stride, ada-valprint treats it the same
way as packed arrays (see ada-valprint.c::ada_val_print_array):
if (TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, 0) > 0)
val_print_packed_array_elements (type, valaddr, offset_aligned,
0, stream, recurse,
original_value, options);
The first thing that we should notice in the call above is that
the "valaddr" buffer and the associated offset (OFFSET_ALIGNED)
is passed, but that the corresponding array's address is not.
This can be explained by looking inside val_print_packed_array_elements,
where we see that the function unpacks each element of our array from
the buffer alone (ada_value_primitive_packed_val), and then prints
the resulting artificial value instead:
v0 = ada_value_primitive_packed_val (NULL, valaddr + offset,
(i0 * bitsize) / HOST_CHAR_BIT,
(i0 * bitsize) % HOST_CHAR_BIT,
bitsize, elttype);
[...]
val_print (elttype, value_contents_for_printing (v0),
value_embedded_offset (v0), 0, stream,
recurse + 1, v0, &opts, current_language);
Of particular interest, here, is the fact that we call val_print
with a null address, which is OK, since we're providing a buffer
instead (value_contents_for_printing). Also, providing an address
might not always possible, since packing could place elements at
boundaries that are not byte-aligned.
Things go south when val_print tries to see if there is a pretty-printer
that could be applied. In particular, one of the first things that
the Python pretty-printer does is to create a value using our buffer,
and the given address, which in this case is null (see call to
value_from_contents_and_address in gdbpy_apply_val_pretty_printer).
value_from_contents_and_address, in turn immediately tries to resolve
the type, using the given address, which is null. But, because our
array element is a record containing an array whose bound is the value
of one of its elements (the "s" component), the debugging info for
the array's upper bound is a reference...
<3><71a>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<71b> DW_AT_type : <0x724>
<71f> DW_AT_upper_bound : <0x703>
... to component "i" of our record...
<2><703>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_member)
<704> DW_AT_name : i
<706> DW_AT_decl_file : 2
<707> DW_AT_decl_line : 6
<708> DW_AT_type : <0x6d1>
<70c> DW_AT_data_member_location: 0
... where that component is located at offset 0 of the start
of the record. dwarf2_evaluate_property correctly determines
the offset where to load the value of the bound from, but then
tries to read that value from inferior memory using the address
that was given, which is null. See case PROP_ADDR_OFFSET in
dwarf2_evaluate_property:
val = value_at (baton->offset_info.type,
pinfo->addr + baton->offset_info.offset);
This triggers a memory error, which then causes the printing to terminate.
Since there are going to be situations where providing an address
alone is not going to be sufficient (packed arrays where array elements
are not stored at byte boundaries), this patch fixes the issue by
enhancing the type resolution to take both address and data. This
follows the same principle as the val_print module, where both
address and buffer ("valaddr") can be passed as arguments. If the data
has already been fetched from inferior memory (or provided by the
debugging info in some form -- Eg a constant), then use that data
instead of reading it from inferior memory.
Note that this should also be a good step towards being able to handle
dynamic types whose value is stored outside of inferior memory
(Eg: in a register).
With this patch, GDB isn't able to print all of A1, but does perform
a little better:
(gdb) p a1
$1 = ((i => 0, s => , (i => 1, s => , (i => 2, s => )
There is another issue which is independent of this one, and will
therefore be patched separately.

Consider the following (Ada) variable...
A1 : Array_Type := (1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
... where Array_Type is an array of records whose size is variable:
subtype Small_Type is Integer range 0 .. 10;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
Trying to print the value of this array currently results in the following
error:
(gdb) p a1
Cannot access memory at address 0x61c000
What happens in this case, is that the compiler describes our array
as an array with a specific stride (and bounds being static 1..3):
<1><749>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<74a> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xb6d): pck__T18s
<74e> DW_AT_byte_stride : 16
<74f> DW_AT_type : <0x6ea>
<2><757>: Abbrev Number: 11 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<758> DW_AT_type : <0x75e>
<75c> DW_AT_upper_bound : 3
This is because we cannot use, in this case, the size of the record
to determine that stride, since the size of the record depends on
its contents. So the compiler helps us by providing that stride.
The problems start when trying to resolve that type. Because the elements
contained in that array type are dynamic, the array itself is considered
dynamic, and thus we end up creating a resolved version of that array.
And during that resolution, we were not handling the case where the array
had a stride. See gdbtypes.c::resolve_dynamic_array...
return create_array_type (copy_type (type),
elt_type,
range_type);
As a result, we created an array whose stride was based on the size
of elt_type, which a record whose size isn't static and irrelevant
regardless.
This patch fixes is by calling create_array_type_with_stride instead.
As it happens, there is another issue for us to be able to print
the value of our array, but those are independent of this patch
and will be handled separately. For now, the patch allows us to
get rid of the first error, and the output is now:
(gdb) p a1

gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_array): Use
create_array_type_with_stride instead of create_array_type.
Currently, ada-lang.c:template_to_static_fixed_type (working on
structure types only) caches its result into the unused TYPE_TARGET_TYPE
field. This introduces inconsistencies when the input type is
specialized, for instance during type resolution: the cached static
fixed type is copied along with the original type, but it's no longer
adapted to the copy once the copy is modified:
template_to_static_fixed_type has to compute another static fixed type
for it.
This change first introduces a cache reset during type resolution for
structure types so that this inconsistency does not happen anymore. It
also makes template_to_static_fixed_type smarter with respect to types
that do not need static fixed copies so that less computations is done
in general.
This inconsistency was spotted thanks to code reading, not because of
any sort of failure and we did not manage to exhibit a failure yet, so
no testcase for this.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (template_to_static_fixed_type): Return input type
when it is already fixed. Cache the input type itself when not
creating a static fixed copy. Make it explicit that we never
molestate the input type.
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_struct): Reset the
TYPE_TARGET_TYPE field for resolved copies.

Even when referenced types are dynamic, the corresponding referencing

struct dynamic_prop_list is declared as follow:
struct dynamic_prop_list
{
[...]
/* The dynamic property itself. */
struct dynamic_prop *prop;
[...]
};
In this case, the pointer indirection is unnecessary and costing us,
for each dynamic property, the memory needed to store one pointer.
This patch removes this pointer indirection, savin us a tiny bit of
memory, as well as reduces a bit the complexity by removing the need
to allocate memory for the property, as the allocation is now part
of the struct itself.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (struct dynamic_prop_list) <prop>: Remove
pointer indirection.
* gdbtypes.c (get_dyn_prop): Adjust, following change above.
(add_dyn_prop, copy_dynamic_prop_list): Likewise.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
This patch introduces a linked list for dynamic attributes of a type.
This is a pre-work for the Fortran dynamic array support. The Fortran
dynamic array support will add more dynamic attributes to a type.
As only a few types will have such dynamic attributes set, a linked
list is more efficient in terms of memory consumption than adding
multiple attributes to main_type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_type_internal): Adapt
data_location usage to linked list.

* gdbtypes.h (enum dynamic_prop_node_kind): New enum.
(struct dynamic_prop_list): New struct.
* dwarf2read.c (set_die_type): Set data_location data.
All these were caught by actually making TRY/CATCH use try/catch
behind the scenes, which then resulted in the build failing (on x86_64
Fedora 20) because there was code between the try and catch blocks.

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++.

This patch moves TYPE_SELF_TYPE into new field type_specific.self_type
for MEMBERPTR,METHODPTR types, and into type_specific.func_stuff
for METHODs, and then updates everything to use that.
TYPE_CODE_METHOD could share some things with TYPE_CODE_FUNC
(e.g. TYPE_NO_RETURN) and it seemed simplest to keep them together.
Moving TYPE_SELF_TYPE into type_specific.func_stuff for TYPE_CODE_METHOD
is also nice because when we allocate space for function types we assume
they're TYPE_CODE_FUNCs. If TYPE_CODE_METHODs don't need or use that
space then that space would be wasted, and cleaning that up would involve
more invasive changes.
In order to catch errant uses I've added accessor functions
that do some checking.
One can no longer assign to TYPE_SELF_TYPE like this:
TYPE_SELF_TYPE (foo) = bar;
One instead has to do:
set_type_self_type (foo, bar);
But I've left reading of the type to the macro:
bar = TYPE_SELF_TYPE (foo);
In order to discourage bypassing the TYPE_SELF_TYPE macro
I've named the underlying function that implements it
internal_type_self_type.
While testing this I found the stabs reader leaving methods
as TYPE_CODE_FUNCs, hitting my newly added asserts.
Since the dwarf reader smashes functions to methods (via
smash_to_method) I've done a similar thing for stabs.

Consider the following declarations:
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
type Record_Type (N : Integer) is record
A : Array_Type (1 .. N);
end record;
R : Record_Type := Get (10);
It defines what Ada programers call a "discriminated record", where
"N" is a component of that record called a "discriminant", and where
"A" is a component defined as an array type whose upper bound is
equal to the value of the discriminant.
So far, we rely on a number of fairly complex GNAT-specific encodings
to handle this situation. This patch is to enhance GDB to be able to
print this record in the case where the compiler has been modified
to replace those encodings by pure DWARF constructs.
In particular, the debugging information generated for the record above
looks like the following. "R" is a record..
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x13e) DW_TAG_structure_type)

This patch enhanced GDB to understand references to other DIEs
where the DIE's address is at an offset of its enclosing type.
The difficulty was that the address used to resolve the array's
type (R's address + 4 bytes) is different from the address used
as the base to compute N's address (an offset to R's address).
We're solving this issue by using a stack of addresses rather
than a single address when trying to resolve a type. Each address
in the stack corresponds to each containing level. For instance,
if resolving the field of a struct, the stack should contain
the address of the field at the top, and then the address of
the struct. That way, if the field makes a reference to an object
of the struct, we can retrieve the address of that struct, and
properly resolve the dynamic property references that struct.

Consider the following code:
type Record_Type (N : Integer) is record
A : Array_Type (1 .. N);
end record;
[...]
R : Record_Type := Get (10);
Trying to print the bounds of the array R.A yielded:
(gdb) p r.a'last
$4 = cannot find reference address for offset property
A slightly different example, but from the same cause:
(gdb) ptype r
type = <ref> record
n: integer;
a: array (cannot find reference address for offset property
Looking at the debugging info, "A" is described as...
.uleb128 0x11 # (DIE (0x181) DW_TAG_member)
.ascii "a\0" # DW_AT_name
.long 0x15d # DW_AT_type
[...]
... which is an array...
.uleb128 0x12 # (DIE (0x15d) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF18 # DW_AT_name: "foo__record_type__T4b"
.long 0x194 # DW_AT_type
.long 0x174 # DW_AT_sibling
... whose bounds are described as:
.uleb128 0x13 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x174 # DW_AT_type
.long 0x153 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x15d
We can see above that the range has an implict lower value of
1, and an upper value which is a reference 0x153="n". All Good.
But looking at the array's subrange subtype, we see...
.uleb128 0x14 # (DIE (0x174) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x153 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.long .LASF19 # DW_AT_name: "foo__record_type__T3b"
.long 0x18d # DW_AT_type
... another subrange type whose bounds are exactly described
the same way. So we have a subrange of a subrange, both with
one bound that's dynamic.
What happens in the case above is that GDB's resolution of "R.A"
yields a array whose index type has static bounds. However, the
subtype of the array's index type was left untouched, so, when
taking the subtype of the array's subrange type, we were left
with the unresolved subrange type, triggering the error above.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (is_dynamic_type_internal) <TYPE_CODE_RANGE>: Return
nonzero if the type's subtype is dynamic.
(resolve_dynamic_range): Also resolve the range's subtype.

Consider the following variable declaration:
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
Var: Array_Type (0 .. -1);
"ptype var" prints the wrong upper bound for that array:
(gdb) ptype var
type = array (0 .. 4294967295) of integer
The debugging info for the type of variable "Var" is as follow:
<2><cf>: Abbrev Number: 13 (DW_TAG_structure_type)
<d0> DW_AT_name : foo__var___PAD
<3><db>: Abbrev Number: 14 (DW_TAG_member)
<dc> DW_AT_name : F
<e0> DW_AT_type : <0xa5>
This is just an artifact from code generation, which is just
a wrapper that we should ignore. The real type is the type of
field "F" in that PAD type, which is described as:
<2><a5>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<a6> DW_AT_name : foo__TvarS
<3><b6>: Abbrev Number: 11 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<b7> DW_AT_type : <0xc1>
<bb> DW_AT_lower_bound : 0
<bc> DW_AT_upper_bound : 0xffffffff
Trouble occurs because DW_AT_upper_bound is encoded using
a DW_FORM_data4, which is ambiguous regarding signedness.
In that case, dwarf2read.c::dwarf2_get_attr_constant_value
reads the value as unsigned, which is not what we want
in this case.
As it happens, we already have code dealing with this situation
in dwarf2read.c::read_subrange_type which checks whether
the subrange's type is signed or not, and if it is, fixes
the bound's value by sign-extending it:
if (high.kind == PROP_CONST
&& !TYPE_UNSIGNED (base_type) && (high.data.const_val & negative_mask))
high.data.const_val |= negative_mask;
Unfortunately, what happens in our case is that the base type
of the array's subrange type is marked as being unsigned, and
so we never get to apply the sign extension. Following the DWARF
trail, the range's base type is described as another subrange type...
<2><c1>: Abbrev Number: 12 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<c7> DW_AT_name : foo__TTvarSP1___XDLU_0__1m
<cb> DW_AT_type : <0x2d>
... whose base type is, (finally), a basic type (signed):
<1><2d>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<2e> DW_AT_byte_size : 4
<2f> DW_AT_encoding : 5 (signed)
<30> DW_AT_name : integer
The reason why GDB thinks that foo__TTvarSP1___XDLU_0__1m
(the base type of the array's range type) is an unsigned type
is found in gdbtypes.c::create_range_type. We consider that
a range type is unsigned iff its lower bound is >= 0:
if (low_bound->kind == PROP_CONST && low_bound->data.const_val >= 0)
TYPE_UNSIGNED (result_type) = 1;
That is normally sufficient, as one would expect the upper bound to
always be greater or equal to the lower bound. But Ada actually
allows the declaration of empty range types where the upper bound
is less than the lower bound. In this case, the upper bound is
negative, so we should not be marking the type as unsigned.
This patch fixes the issue by simply checking the upper bound as well
as the lower bound, and clears the range type's unsigned flag when
it is found to be constant and negative.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (create_range_type): Unset RESULT_TYPE's
flag_unsigned if HIGH_BOUND is constant and negative.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/n_arr_bound: New testcase.
