With old compilers, the test fails because no debug info is generated
for 'B' and GDB finds some 'b' in atnat.h:
(gdb) print b
Multiple matches for b
[0] cancel
[1] b at ../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/atnat.h:106
[2] b at ../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/atnat.h:106
[3] b at ../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/atnat.h:106
> FAIL: gdb.ada/rename_subscript_param.exp: print b before changing its value (timeout)
Avoid the timeout by renaming 'b' to rename_subscript_param_b.
Also, change 'before' to 'after' in the gdb_test message that prints
the value after changing it.
The test still fails with old compilers that do not properly
generate debug info for this renaming:
(gdb) print rename_subscript_param_b
No definition of "rename_subscript_param_b" in current context.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/rename_subscript_param.exp: print rename_subscript_param_b before changing its value
Note: if the compiler would generate the correct debug info, the test should
succeed with the name B. However, waiting for this fix, changing the name
ensures that the test fails directly, instead of causing a timeout.

The test gdb.ada/packed_array_assign fails due to conflict between component 'w'

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/packed_array_assign.exp: print pra := ((x => 2, y => 0, w => 17), pr, (x => 7, y => 1, w => 23))
Also, depending on the compiler version, the component w might be reordered
and placed before components x and y.
So, change the component order in the source, so that both an old
compiler (GNATMAKE 6.3.0, gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516)
and a new compiler (GNATMAKE Pro 20.0w (20181210-82), based on gcc 8.2.1)
produce the same component order (checked by using -gnatR3s).
So, update to test the new (more unique) names in the source order.

The 64-bit RISC-V target currently models the floating point registers
as having the following type:
union riscv_double
{
builtin_type_ieee_single float;
builtin_type_ieee_double double;
}
Notice the choice of names for the fields of this struct, possibly not
ideal choices, as these are not valid field names in C. However, this
type is only ever defined within GDB (or in the target description),
and no restriction seems to exist on the field names in that case.
The problem though is that currently:
(gdb) info registers $ft0
ft0 {float = 0, double = 0} (raw 0x0000000000000000)
(gdb) p $ft0.float
$1 = 0
(gdb) p $ft0.double
A syntax error in expression, near `double'.
We can access the 'float' field, but not the 'double' field. This is
because the string 'double' is handled differently to the string
'float' in c-exp.y.
In both cases the string '$ft0' is parsed as a VARIABLE expression.
In the 'float' case, the string 'float' becomes a generic NAME token
in 'lex_one_token', which then allows the rule "exp '.' name" to match
and the field name lookup to occur.
The 'double' case is different. In order to allow parsing of the type
string 'long double', the 'double' string becomes the token
DOUBLE_KEYWORD. At this point there's no rule to match "exp '.'
DOUBLE_KEYWORD", so we can never lookup the field named 'double'.
We could rename the fields for RISC-V, and maybe that would be the
best solution. However, its not hard to allow for fields named
'double', which is what this patch does.
A new case is added to the 'field_name' rule to match the
DOUBLE_KEYWORD, and create a suitable 'struct stoken'. With this done
the "exp '.' field_name" pattern can now match, and we can lookup the
double field.
With this patch in place I now see this behaviour:
(gdb) info registers $ft0
ft0 {float = 0, double = 0} (raw 0x0000000000000000)
(gdb) p $ft0.float
$1 = 0
(gdb) p $ft0.double
$2 = 0
I've gone ahead and handled INT_KEYWORD, LONG, SHORT, SIGNED_KEYWORD,
and UNSIGNED as well within field_name.
I've added a new test for this functionality.
This change was tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions.

The existing code for reading and writing the return value can

The problems were detected using valgrind, here are two examples,

There are a couple of problems with the existing code, that are all
related.
In riscv_call_arg_struct we incorrectly rounded up the size of a
structure argument. This is unnecessary, and caused GDB to read too
much data into the output buffer when extracting a struct return
value.
In fixing this it became clear that we were incorrectly assuming that
any value being placed in a register (or read from a register) would
always access the entire register. This is not true, for example a
9-byte struct on a 64-bit target places 8-bytes in one registers and
1-byte in a second register (assuming available registers). To handle
this I switch from using cooked_read to cooked_read_part.
Finally, when processing basic integer return value types these are
extended to xlen sized types and then passed in registers. We
currently don't handle this type expansion in riscv_return_value, but
we do in riscv_push_dummy_call. The result is that small integer
types (like char) result in a full xlen sized register being written
into the output buffer, which results in buffer overflow. To address
this issue we now create a value of the expanded type and use this
values contents buffer to hold the return value before casting the
value down to the smaller expected type.
This patch resolves all of the valgrind issues I have found so far,
and causes no regressions. Tested against RV32/64 with and without
floating point support.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* riscv-tdep.c (riscv_call_arg_struct): Don't adjust size before

the gdb.base/callfuncs.exp test.

Various tests use test code written in i386 / x86_64 assembly that cannot
be used to create PIE executables. Therefore compilation of test programs
failed on systems where the compiler default is to create PIE executable.
The solution is to use -no-pie linker flag, however, such flag may not
(is not) supported by all compilers GDB needs to support (e.g. gcc 4.8).
To handle this, introduce a new flag to gdb_compile - nopie - which
inserts -no-pie linker flag where supported and is no-op where it is
not. By default, -no-pie flag is inserted since most modern compiler do
support it.
The ptrace command PT_LWPINFO to request detailed information about a
stopped thread can return stale signal information from an earlier
stop. Events which are reporting an intercepted signal will always
report the correct information, but signal stops for some other events
such as system call enter/exit events might include stale siginfo from
an earlier signal. In particular, if a thread reports a system call
entry or exit event after previously reporting a single-step or
breakpoint event via SIGTRAP, fbsd_handle_debug_trap believed the
system call event was the previous event and claimed it resulting in a
spurious SIGTRAP event.
True breakpoint and single-step events will never report another event
in the pl_flags member of struct ptrace_lwpinfo. Use this to detect
stale siginfo by requiring pl_flags to have only the PL_FLAG_SI flag
and no other flags before treating a SIGTRAP as a single-step or
breakpoint trap.

* fbsd-nat.c (fbsd_handle_debug_trap): Require pl.pl_flags to

Running `info os someUnknownOsType` is crashing when gdb is built with
-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG:

In target_read_stralloc from target.c, the call to

this vector, which is invalid.
This commit adds a check for emptiness before trying to call
vector::back on it. It also adds test to check for `info os <unknown>`
to return the proper error message.

previous versions.

standard_ada_testfile, standard_test_file and the explicit
csrcfile assignment in info_auto_lang.exp all gives similar pathnames
prefix for a source, such as
/home/philippe/gdb/git/build_binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.<something>.
Note that the above pathnames contain ../ which appears when a relative
pathname is used to call configure.
In any case, the gnat compiler normalizes Ada sources path when compiling.
So, the 'Ada' .o object are referencing a pathname such as
/home/philippe/gdb/git/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.ada/info_auto_lang/proc_in_ada.adb,
while the 'C' .o object still references the not normalized pathname.
As the results of 'info functions | ...' are sorted by pathname first,
the order of the results depends on the comparison between different directories,
leading to results that can change depending on these directories.
=> Ensure the result order is always the same, by normalising the C source file,
which makes the results independent of the way configure is launched.
Tested by running the testcase in 2 different builds, that without normalize
were giving different results.
Note: such 'set csrcfile' is used in 4 other tests mixing Ada and C.
After discussion, it was deemed sufficient to just normalize the pathname
for this test.

Supply default gdbarch methods for gdbarch_dummy_id,
gdbarch_unwind_pc, and gdbarch_unwind_sp. This patch doesn't actually
convert any targets to use these methods, and so, there will be no
user visible changes after this commit.
The implementations for default_dummy_id and default_unwind_sp are
fairly straight forward, these just take on the pattern used by most
targets. Once these default methods are in place then most targets
will be able to switch over.
The implementation for default_unwind_pc is also fairly straight
forward, but maybe needs some explanation.
This patch has gone through a number of iterations:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00165.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00306.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-06/msg00090.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-09/msg00127.html
and the implementation of default_unwind_pc has changed over this
time. Originally, I took an implementation like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
return frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
}
This is basically a clone of default_unwind_sp, but using $pc. It was
pointed out that we could potentially do better, and in version 2 the
implementation became:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct type *type;
int pc_regnum;
CORE_ADDR addr;
struct value *value;
pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
value = frame_unwind_register_value (next_frame, pc_regnum);
type = builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_func_ptr;
addr = extract_typed_address (value_contents_all (value), type);
addr = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, addr);
release_value (value);
value_free (value);
return addr;
}
The idea was to try split out some of the steps of unwinding the $pc,
steps that are on some (or many) targets no-ops, and so allow targets
that do override these methods, to make use of default_unwind_pc.
This implementation remained in place for version 2, 3, and 4.
However, I realised that I'd made a mistake, most targets simply use
frame_unwind_register_unsigned to unwind the $pc, and this throws an
error if the register value is optimized out or unavailable. My new
proposed implementation doesn't do this, I was going to end up
breaking many targets.
I considered duplicating the code from frame_unwind_register_unsigned
that throws the errors into my new default_unwind_pc, however, this
felt really overly complex. So, what I instead went with was to
simply revert back to using frame_unwind_register_unsigned. Almost
all existing targets already use this. Some of the ones that don't can
be converted to, which means almost all targets could end up using the
default.
One addition I have made over the version 1 implementation is to add a
call to gdbarch_addr_bits_remove. For most targets this is a no-op,
but for a handful, having this call in place will mean that they can
use the default method. After all this, the new default_unwind_pc now
looks like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
CORE_ADDR pc = frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
pc = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, pc);
return pc;
}

For PLT expressions, we should subtract the PLT relocation size only for

"symbol@PLT" in PLT expression.

A recent patch [1] to fix a GCC PR [2] actually broke the GDB build.
To fix, remove the stack pointer clobber. GCC will ignore the clobber
marker, and will not save or restore the stack pointer.
I ran "make check-gdb" on x86_64 to ensure there are no regressions.

This test checks code layout by function symbol ordering, but that
doesn't work on powerpc64 ELFv1 where the function symbol is on a
descriptor. A simple work-around is to have nm emit synthetic symbols
marking the code entry point of functions. Since the text segment is
laid out before the data segment, the synthetic symbols will have
lower addresses than function descriptor symbols and be seen first in
nm -n output.
On other targets, nm --synthetic typically emits symbols on plt
entries. Since the testcase doesn't call any of the functions of
interest there shouldn't be plt entries for those functions, so there
should be no potentially confusing extra symbols.
* testsuite/Makefile.am (keep_text_section_prefix_nm.stdout):
Pass --synthetic to nm.
* testsuite/Makefile.in: Regenerate.
All of the backend relocate_section functions that interpret reloc
numbers assuming the input file is of the expected type (ie. same as
output or very similar) really ought to be checking input file type.
Not many do, and those that do currently just assert. This patch
replaces the assertion with a more graceful exit.

The host syscall callback mechanism should take care of updating the
errcode within the CB_SYSCALL struct, and we should not be adjusting
the error code once the syscall has completed. We especially, should
not be rewriting the syscall errcode based on the value of errno some
time after running the host syscall, as there is no guarantee that
errno has not be overwritten.
To perform a syscall we call cb_syscall (in syscall.c). To return
from cb_syscall control passes through one of two exit paths these are
labeled FinishSyscall and ErrorFinish and are reached using goto
statements scattered throughout the cb_syscall function.
In FinishSyscall we store the syscall result in 'sc->result', and the
error code is transated to target encoding, and stored in
'sc->errcode'.
In ErrorFinish, we again store the syscall result in 'sc->result', and
fill in 'sc->errcode' by fetching the actual errno from the host with
the 'cb->get_errno' callback.
In both cases 'sc->errcode' will have been filled in with an
appropriate value.
Further, if we look at a specific syscall example, CB_SYS_open, in
this case the first thing we do is fetch the path to open from the
target with 'get_path', if this fails then the errcode is returned,
and we jump to FinishSyscall. Notice that in this case, no host
syscall may have been performed, for example a failure to read the
path to open out of simulated memory can return EINVAL without
performing any host syscall. Given that no host syscall has been
performed, reading the host errno makes absolutely no sense.
This commit removes from sim_syscall_multi the rewriting of
sc->errcode based on the value of errno, and instead relies on the
value stored in the cb_syscall.

* sim-syscall.c (sim_syscall_multi): Don't update sc->errcode at

In the dwarf reader we have a set of predicates, these include the
different producer predicates and also some control predicates. The
older ones are declared as integers, while newer ones (added since the
C++ conversion) are bool.
This commit makes them all bool for consistency. There should be no
user visible change after this commit.

Including asm/sigcontext.h together with libc headers is not valid. In
general linux headers may not work with libc headers, so mixing them
should be avoided, especially when the linux header defines types that
are also exposed in libc headers.
In case of asm/sigcontext.h glibc happens to work because glibc signal.h
directly includes it, but e.g. in musl libc signal.h replicates the
sigcontext.h definitions in an abi compatible way which are in conflict
with the linux definitions when both headers are included.
Since old linux headers or old libc headers may not have the necessary
definitions, gdb has to replicate the definitions it relies on anyway.
Which is fine since all definitions must be ABI stable. For linux apis
that are not available via libc headers, replicating the definitions in
gdb is the most reliable way to use them.
Note: asm/ptrace.h includes asm/sigcontext.h in some versions of linux
headers, which is just as problematic and should be fixed in linux.

* nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.h: Include signal.h instead of
asm/sigcontext.h.
