This commit adds multi-target support to GDB. What this means is that
with this commit, GDB can now be connected to different targets at the
same time. E.g., you can debug a live native process and a core dump
at the same time, connect to multiple gdbservers, etc.
Actually, the word "target" is overloaded in gdb. We already have a
target stack, with pushes several target_ops instances on top of one
another. We also have "info target" already, which means something
completely different to what this patch does.
So from here on, I'll be using the "target connections" term, to mean
an open process_stratum target, pushed on a target stack. This patch
makes gdb have multiple target stacks, and multiple process_stratum
targets open simultaneously. The user-visible changes / commands will
also use this terminology, but of course it's all open to debate.
User-interface-wise, not that much changes. The main difference is
that each inferior may have its own target connection.
A target connection (e.g., a target extended-remote connection) may
support debugging multiple processes, just as before.
Say you're debugging against gdbserver in extended-remote mode, and
you do "add-inferior" to prepare to spawn a new process, like:
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
...
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) add-inferior
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) file a.out
...
(gdb) start
...
At this point, you have two inferiors connected to the same gdbserver.
With this commit, GDB will maintain a target stack per inferior,
instead of a global target stack.
To preserve the behavior above, by default, "add-inferior" makes the
new inferior inherit a copy of the target stack of the current
inferior. Same across a fork - the child inherits a copy of the
target stack of the parent. While the target stacks are copied, the
targets themselves are not. Instead, target_ops is made a
refcounted_object, which means that target_ops instances are
refcounted, which each inferior counting for a reference.
What if you want to create an inferior and connect it to some _other_
target? For that, this commit introduces a new "add-inferior
-no-connection" option that makes the new inferior not share the
current inferior's target. So you could do:
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
Remote debugging using :9999
...
(gdb) add-inferior -no-connection
[New inferior 2]
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 18401 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
* 2 <null>
(gdb) tar extended-remote :10000
Remote debugging using :10000
...
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 18401 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
* 2 process 18450 target:/home/pedro/tmp/main
(gdb)
A following patch will extended "info inferiors" to include a column
indicating which connection an inferior is bound to, along with a
couple other UI tweaks.
Other than that, debugging is the same as before. Users interact with
inferiors and threads as before. The only difference is that
inferiors may be bound to processes running in different machines.
That's pretty much all there is to it in terms of noticeable UI
changes.
On to implementation.
Since we can be connected to different systems at the same time, a
ptid_t is no longer a unique identifier. Instead a thread can be
identified by a pair of ptid_t and 'process_stratum_target *', the
later being the instance of the process_stratum target that owns the
process/thread. Note that process_stratum_target inherits from
target_ops, and all process_stratum targets inherit from
process_stratum_target. In earlier patches, many places in gdb were
converted to refer to threads by thread_info pointer instead of
ptid_t, but there are still places in gdb where we start with a
pid/tid and need to find the corresponding inferior or thread_info
objects. So you'll see in the patch many places adding a
process_stratum_target parameter to functions that used to take only a
ptid_t.
Since each inferior has its own target stack now, we can always find
the process_stratum target for an inferior. That is done via a
inf->process_target() convenience method.
Since each inferior has its own target stack, we need to handle the
"beneath" calls when servicing target calls. The solution I settled
with is just to make sure to switch the current inferior to the
inferior you want before making a target call. Not relying on global
context is just not feasible in current GDB. Fortunately, there
aren't that many places that need to do that, because generally most
code that calls target methods already has the current context
pointing to the right inferior/thread. Note, to emphasize -- there's
no method to "switch to this target stack". Instead, you switch the
current inferior, and that implicitly switches the target stack.
In some spots, we need to iterate over all inferiors so that we reach
all target stacks.
Native targets are still singletons. There's always only a single
instance of such targets.
Remote targets however, we'll have one instance per remote connection.
The exec target is still a singleton. There's only one instance. I
did not see the point of instanciating more than one exec_target
object.
After vfork, we need to make sure to push the exec target on the new
inferior. See exec_on_vfork.
For type safety, functions that need a {target, ptid} pair to identify
a thread, take a process_stratum_target pointer for target parameter
instead of target_ops *. Some shared code in gdb/nat/ also need to
gain a target pointer parameter. This poses an issue, since gdbserver
doesn't have process_stratum_target, only target_ops. To fix this,
this commit renames gdbserver's target_ops to process_stratum_target.
I think this makes sense. There's no concept of target stack in
gdbserver, and gdbserver's target_ops really implements a
process_stratum-like target.
The thread and inferior iterator functions also gain
process_stratum_target parameters. These are used to be able to
iterate over threads and inferiors of a given target. Following usual
conventions, if the target pointer is null, then we iterate over
threads and inferiors of all targets.
I tried converting "add-inferior" to the gdb::option framework, as a
preparatory patch, but that stumbled on the fact that gdb::option does
not support file options yet, for "add-inferior -exec". I have a WIP
patchset that adds that, but it's not a trivial patch, mainly due to
need to integrate readline's filename completion, so I deferred that
to some other time.
In infrun.c/infcmd.c, the main change is that we need to poll events
out of all targets. See do_target_wait. Right after collecting an
event, we switch the current inferior to an inferior bound to the
target that reported the event, so that target methods can be used
while handling the event. This makes most of the code transparent to
multi-targets. See fetch_inferior_event.
infrun.c:stop_all_threads is interesting -- in this function we need
to stop all threads of all targets. What the function does is send an
asynchronous stop request to all threads, and then synchronously waits
for events, with target_wait, rinse repeat, until all it finds are
stopped threads. Now that we have multiple targets, it's not
efficient to synchronously block in target_wait waiting for events out
of one target. Instead, we implement a mini event loop, with
interruptible_select, select'ing on one file descriptor per target.
For this to work, we need to be able to ask the target for a waitable
file descriptor. Such file descriptors already exist, they are the
descriptors registered in the main event loop with add_file_handler,
inside the target_async implementations. This commit adds a new
target_async_wait_fd target method that just returns the file
descriptor in question. See wait_one / stop_all_threads in infrun.c.
The 'threads_executing' global is made a per-target variable. Since
it is only relevant to process_stratum_target targets, this is where
it is put, instead of in target_ops.
You'll notice that remote.c includes some FIXME notes. These refer to
the fact that the global arrays that hold data for the remote packets
supported are still globals. For example, if we connect to two
different servers/stubs, then each might support different remote
protocol features. They might even be different architectures, like
e.g., one ARM baremetal stub, and a x86 gdbserver, to debug a
host/controller scenario as a single program. That isn't going to
work correctly today, because of said globals. I'm leaving fixing
that for another pass, since it does not appear to be trivial, and I'd
rather land the base work first. It's already useful to be able to
debug multiple instances of the same server (e.g., a distributed
cluster, where you have full control over the servers installed), so I
think as is it's already reasonable incremental progress.
Current limitations:
- You can only resume more that one target at the same time if all
targets support asynchronous debugging, and support non-stop mode.
It should be possible to support mixed all-stop + non-stop
backends, but that is left for another time. This means that
currently in order to do multi-target with gdbserver you need to
issue "maint set target-non-stop on". I would like to make that
mode be the default, but we're not there yet. Note that I'm
talking about how the target backend works, only. User-visible
all-stop mode works just fine.
- As explained above, connecting to different remote servers at the
same time is likely to produce bad results if they don't support the
exact set of RSP features.

Hi,
This bug has been reported against Fedora GDB, but there's also an
upstream bug. The problem reported is that GDB segfaults when the
working directory is deleted. It's pretty use to reproduce it:
mkdir bla
cd bla
rmdir ../bla
gdb echo
Debugging the problem is a bit tricky, because, since the current
directory doesn't exist anymore, a corefile cannot be saved there.
After a few attempts, I came up with the following:
gdb -ex 'shell mkdir bla' -ex 'cd bla' -ex 'shell rmdir ../bla' -ex 'r echo' ./gdb/gdb
This assumes that you're inside a build directory which contains
./gdb/gdb, of course.
After investigating it, I found that the problem happens at
gdb_abspath, where we're dereferencing 'current_directory' without
checking if it's NULL:
...
(concat (current_directory,
IS_DIR_SEPARATOR (current_directory[strlen (current_directory) - 1])
? "" : SLASH_STRING,
...
So I fixed the problem with the patch below. The idea is that, if
'current_directory' is NULL, then the final string returned should be
just the "path".
After fixing the bug, I found a similar one reported against our
bugzilla: PR gdb/23613. The problem is the same, but the reproducer
is a bit different.
I really tried writing a testcase for this, but unfortunately it's
apparently not possible to start GDB inside a non-existent directory
with DejaGNU.
I regression tested this patch on the BuildBot, and no regressions
were found.

This patch adds the new 'define-prefix' command that creates (or mark an
existing user defined command) as a prefix command.
This approach was preferred compared to add a -prefix option to
'define' command : with define-prefix, a command can be defined and
afterwards marked as a prefix. Also, it is easier to define a
'prefix' only command in one operation.
This patch also adds completers for the 'define' and 'document' commands.
This makes it easier for the user to type the prefixes for 'define'
and type the documented command name for 'document'.

This changes command_line_input to return a "const char *", which is
appropriate because the memory is owned by command_line_input. Then
it fixes up the users.
I looked at making command_line_input transfer ownership to its caller
instead, but this is complicated due to the way read_next_line is
called, so I decided against it.

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).

This patch drops gdb's configury support for glibc's mcheck function.
It has been observed to cause false abort()s, because it is
thread-unsafe yet interposes every malloc/free operation. So if any
library transitively used by gdb also uses threads, then these
functions can easily corrupt their own checking data. These days, gcc
ASAN and valgrind provide high quality checking, and mcheck is
apparently itself being slowly deprecated.
So, let's stop linking to it. Attached patch drops the
autoconf/Makefile machinery for both gdb and gdbserver. No
testsuite-visible impact. IMHO not worth mentioning in NEWS.

On Windows, passing a named pipe as terminal argument to the new-ui
command does not work.
The problem is that the new_ui_command function in top.c opens the
same tty three times, for stdin, stdout and stderr. With Windows
named pipes, the second and third calls to open fail.
Opening the file only once and passing the same stream for stdin,
stdout and stderr makes it work.
Pedro says:
I tried it on GNU/Linux and things still work.

I noticed that init_cli_cmds only installs a command, and so doesn't
need to be handled specially. This patch merges it into
_initialize_cli_cmds.
The help text is constructed dynamically, which is sometimes an
indication that special treatment is needed; but in this case it is
just to insert the value of "gdbinit", which is created at
compile-time and not modified; so this doesn't affect the result.
This version also removes the "gdbinit" global. There's no need for
it, as GDBINIT can be used instead. Note, though, that the help text
in question must still be dynamically constructed, in order to be
i18n-friendly.

I touched symtab.h and was surprised to see how many files were
rebuilt. I looked into it a bit, and found that defs.h includes
gdbarch.h, which in turn includes many things.
gdbarch.h is only needed by a minority ofthe files in gdb, so this
patch removes the include from defs.h and updates the fallout.
I did "wc -l" on the files in build/gdb/.deps; this patch reduces the
line count from 139935 to 137030; so there are definitely future
build-time savings here.
Note that while I configured with --enable-targets=all, it's possible

(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.

The deprecated_interactive_hook is not used within GDB. It is used in
gdbtk, however this patch removes that use:
https://sourceware.org/ml/insight/2019-q2/msg00001.html
So I think there is no longer a reason to keep this hook around.
This patch removes it. There should be no user visible changes after
this commit.

* defs.h (deprecated_interactive_hook): Delete declaration.
* interps.c (clear_interpreter_hooks): Remove use of
deprecated_interactive_hook.
* top.c (deprecated_interactive_hook): Delete definition.
* utils.c (maybe_quit): Remove use of deprecated_interactive_hook.
PR gdb/24653 points out that a gcc snapshot will complain about the
calls to alloca(0) in gdb.
These calls are only needed when using the C alloca. I'm inclined to
think that no current platform needs this, so this patch removes the
calls.
Let me know what you think.

I noticed recently that some command had a trailing newline in its
"help" output. So, I temporarily hacked cli-decode.c to print
something when a new command was installed that had a trailing newline
in its help message, and wrote this patch, which removes all the ones
I could find this way. (There could still be a few more in *-nat
files.)
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 29.

* gdbcmd.h (execute_command_to_ui_file): New declaration.
top.c (execute_command_to_ui_file): New function, mostly a copy
of execute_command_to_string.
(execute_command_to_string): Implement by calling
execute_command_to_ui_file.
Currently, a previous command can be repeated when the user types an
empty line. This is implemented in handle_line_of_input by
returning saved_command_line in case an empty line has been input.
If we want a command to repeat the previous command, we need to save
the previous saved_command_line, as when a command runs, the saved_command_line
already contains the current command line of the command being executed.
As suggested by Tom, the previous_saved_command_line is made static.
At the same time, saved_command_line is also made static.
The support functions/variables for the repeat command logic are now all
located inside top.c.

the new 'repeat' related functions instead of direct access to
saved_command_line.

(dont_repeat): Add comment.
Calls to error () can cause SIGTTOU to send gdb to the background.
For example, on an Arm build:
(gdb) b main

warning: Probes-based dynamic linker interface failed.
Reverting to original interface.
The SIGTTOU is raised whilst inside a syscall during the call to tcdrain.
Fix is to use scoped_ignore_sigttou to ensure SIGTTOU is blocked.

'thread|frame apply CMD' launches CMD so that CMD output goes to a string_file.
This patch ensures that string_file for such CMD output contains
style escape sequences that 'thread|frame apply' will later on
output on the real terminal, so as to have CMD output properly styled.
The idea is to have the class ui_file having overridable methods
to indicate that the output to this ui_file should be done using
'terminal' behaviour such as styling.
Then these methods are overriden in string_file so that a specially
constructed string_file will get output with style escape sequences.
After this patch, the output of CMD by thread|frame apply CMD is styled
similarly as when CMD is launched directly.
Note that string_file (term_out true) could also support wrapping,
but this is not done (yet?).
Tested on debian/amd64.

When the user exits GDB, we might still have some allocated values in

another file) lead to a wrong error message, or use-after-free.
For example, if I put this in "a.gdb":
command_that_doesnt_exist
and this in "b.gdb":
source a.gdb
and try to "source b.gdb" in GDB, the result may look like this:
(gdb) source b.gdb
b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
_that_doesnt_exist:1: Error in sourced command file:
Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist". Try "help".
Notice the wrong file name where "a.gdb" should be. The exact result
may differ, depending on the feelings of the memory allocator.
What happens is:
- The "source a.gdb" command is saved by command_line_append_input_line
in command_line_input's static buffer.
- Since we are sourcing a file, the script_from_file function stores the
script name (a.gdb) in the source_file_name global. However, it doesn't
do a copy, it just saves a pointer to command_line_input's static buffer.
- The "command_that_doesnt_exist" command is saved by
command_line_append_input_line in command_line_input's static buffer.
Depending on what xrealloc does, source_file_name may now point to
freed memory, or at the minimum the data it was pointing to was
overwritten.
- When the error is handled in script_from_file, we dererence
source_file_name to print the name of the file in which the error
occured.
To fix it, I made source_file_name an std::string, so that keeps a copy of
the file name instead of pointing to a buffer with a too small
lifetime.
With this patch, the expected filename is printed, and no use-after-free
occurs:
(gdb) source b.gdb
b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
a.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist". Try "help".
I passed explicit template parameters to make_scoped_restore
(<std::string, const std::string &>), so that the second parameter is
passed by reference and avoid a copy.
It was not as obvious as I first thought to change gdb.base/source.exp
to test this, because source commands inside sourced files are
interpreted relative to GDB's current working directory, not the
directory of the currently sourced file. As a workaround, I moved the
snippet that tests errors after the snippet that adds the source
directory to the search path. This way, the "source source-error-1.gdb"
line in source-error.exp manages to find the file.
For reference, here is what ASAN reports when use-after-free occurs:
(gdb) source b.gdb

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.
Following the change of logic where the input_handler gets a
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>, a call to readline directly
followed by a call to handle_line_of_input is missing a free,
and causes the below leak.
Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char> to solve the leak.

* event-top.h (command_line_handler): Update.
* top.c (class gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup) <m_handler_orig>:
Update.
(gdb_readline_wrapper_line): Update.
* top.h (struct ui) <input_handler>: Take a unique_xmalloc_ptr.
(handle_line_of_input): Update.
* event-top.c: Update.
(gdb_readline_no_editing_callback): Update.
(command_line_handler): Take a unique_xmalloc_ptr.
(handle_line_of_input): Take a const char *.

The leak is created by top.c set_verbose 'elaborate joke':
the doc string is changed according to the verbosity:
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbosity.
(gdb) set verbose on
(gdb) help set verbose
Set verbose printing of informational messages.
(gdb)
set_verbose creates the leak as it replaces the string allocated in
the above stacktrace by a static (non translated) string:
...
if (info_verbose)
{
c->doc = "Set verbose printing of informational messages.";
...
Also, this can possibly trigger a call to 'free' of a static string,
as c->doc_allocated is kept true, while the string is not allocated anymore.
This patch:
* fixes the leak by freeing the previous docs if doc_allocated.
* internationalize the messages.
* properly sets doc_allocated to 0 once doc strings are static.

* top.c (set_verbose): Free previous docs if doc_allocated.
Internationalize messages. Set doc_allocated to 0.
When using the --configuration command line switch, or using
the "show configuration" command with a version of GDB which
was configured without Python supoprt, this patch changes
the resulting output to include...
--without-python
... instead of not printing anything about Python support.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* top.c (print_gdb_configuration): Print "--without-python"
if GDB was configured without Python.
Tested on x86_64-linux by rebuilding GDB with and without Python,
and checking the output of "gdb --configuration" in both cases.
I noticed that some code in gdb was doing:
char *mumble = getenv (...)
However, using "const char *" here would be clearer.
This patch fixes the instances I could readily build.
Tested by rebuilding.
