My gnulib fix at:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2015-11/msg00010.html
was merged upstream meanwhile and our gnulib copy now includes it.
As a concidence, Kevin was telling me today that these macros are
causing a build problem on FreeBSD:
common/common-defs.h:47:0: error: "__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS" redefined [-Werror]
#define __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS 1
/usr/include/sys/cdefs.h:408:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
#define __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS
(and a similar error for __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS)
The problem seems to be that we should be defining these input macros
before including any system header, but, we're not.
So let's just revert e063da6790 ([C++] Define __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS
/ __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS for stdint.h). If this causes a problem
somewhere, we can re-define the macros higher up in the file, before
system headers are included.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-10-18 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/common-defs.h (__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS)
(__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS): Delete.
Many make_cleanup uses in the code base are best eliminated by using a
"owning" smart pointer to manage ownership of the resource
automatically.
The question is _which_ smart pointer.
GDB currently supports building with a C++03 compiler. We have
std::auto_ptr in C++03, but, as is collective wisdom by now, that's
too easy to misuse, and has therefore been deprecated in C++11 and
finally removed in C++17.
It'd be nice to be able to use std::unique_ptr instead, which is the
modern, safe std::auto_ptr replacement in C++11.
In addition to extra safety -- moving (i.e., transfer of ownership of
the managed pointer between smart pointers) must be explicit --
std::unique_ptr has (among others) one nice feature that std::auto_ptr
doesn't --- ability to specify a custom deleter as template parameter.
In gdb's context, that allows easily creating a smart pointer for
memory allocated with xmalloc -- the smart pointer then knows to
release with xfree instead of delete. This is particularly
interesting when managing objects allocated in C libraries, and also,
for C++-fying parts of GDB that interact with other parts that still
return objects allocated with xmalloc.
Since std::unique_ptr's API is quite nice, and eventually we'd like to
move to C++11, this patch adds a C++03-compatible smart pointer that
exposes the subset of the std::unique_ptr API that we're interested
in. An advantage is that whenever we start requiring C++11, we won't
have to learn a new API. Meanwhile, this allows continuing to support
building with a C++03 compiler.
Since C++03 doesn't support rvalue references (boost gets close to
emulating them, but it's not fully transparent to user code), the
C++03 std::unique_ptr emulation here doesn't try hard to prevent
accidentally moving, which is where most of complication of a more
thorough emulation would be. Instead, we rely on the fact that GDB
will be usually compiled with a C++11 compiler, and use the real
std::unique_ptr in that case to catch such accidental moves. IOW, the
goal here is to allow code that would be correct using std::unique_ptr
to be equally correct in C++03 mode, and, just as efficient.
The C++03 version was originally based on GCC 7.0's std::auto_ptr and
then heavily customized to behave more like C++11's std::unique_ptr:
- Support for custom (stateless) deleters. (Support for stateful
deleters could be added, if necessary.)
- unique_ptr<T[]> partial specialization (auto_ptr<T> does not know
to use delete[]).
- Support for all of 'ptr != NULL', 'ptr == NULL' and 'if (ptr)'
using the safe bool idiom to emulate C++11's explicit bool
operator.
- There's no nullptr in C++03, so this allows initialization and
assignment from NULL instead (std::auto_ptr allows neither).
- Variable names un-uglified (ie., no leading __ prefix everywhere).
- Formatting made to follow GDB's coding conventions, including
comment style.
- Converting "move" constructors done differently in order to truly
support:
unique_ptr<Derived> func_returning_unique_ptr (.....);
...
unique_ptr<Base> ptr = func_returning_unique_ptr (.....);
At this point, it no longer shares much at all with the original file,
but, that's the history.
See comments in the code to find out more.
I thought of putting the "emulation" / shim in the "std" namespace, so
that when we start requiring C++11 at some point, no actual changes to
users of the smart pointer throughout would be necessary. Putting
things in the std namespace is technically undefined, however in
practice it doesn't cause any issue with any compiler. However,
thinking that people might be confused with seeing std::unique_ptr and
thinking that we're actually requiring C++11 already, I put the new
types in the "gdb" namespace instead.
For managing xmalloc pointers, this adds a gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<T>
"specialization" with a custom xfree deleter.
No actual use of any smart pointer is introduced in this patch.
That'll be done in following patches.
Tested (along with the rest of the series) on:

- x86-64 Fedora 23, gcc 5.3.1 (gnu++03)

This is a regression caused by commit cda6c55bd3 (Turn wchar
iterator into a class). The problem is that iconv_t is now exposed in
gdb/charset.h, while before it was only used in gdb/charset.c.
gdb/charset.c, under #ifdef PHONY_ICONV, does:
#undef iconv_t
#define iconv_t int
So it seems the simplest is to use 'int' in the header file too.

This converts tid_range_parser and get_number_or_range to be classes.
The various tid_range_parser_* and get_number_or_range_* functions
become methods on the respective classes. Then it updates the users
to follow.
The rationale for the change is that this provides better
encapsulation. For example, this forced me to think of a better
interface between tid_range_parser and get_number_or_range, since the
former peeked into the latter's internals a bit too much. That ended
up resulting mostly in these two not-just-straight-1-1 changes:
void
-tid_range_parser_skip (struct tid_range_parser *parser)
+tid_range_parser::skip_range ()
{
...
- tid_range_parser_init (parser, parser->range_parser.end_ptr,
- parser->default_inferior);
+ m_range_parser.skip_range ();
+ init (m_range_parser.string (), m_default_inferior);
}
and:
/* If we successfully parsed a thread number or finished parsing a
thread range, switch back to assuming the next TID is
inferior-qualified. */
- if (parser->range_parser.end_ptr == NULL
- || parser->range_parser.string == parser->range_parser.end_ptr)
+ if (!m_range_parser.in_range ())
{
For the same reason (encapsulation), this moves the enum
tid_range_state definition to within the tid_parser class's scope,
since that is private implementation detail.
While at it, switch to use "bool" for booleans.

Fix a regression from commit f8b73d13b7 ("Target-described register
support for MIPS"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-05/msg00340.html>,
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-06/msg00256.html>, which
caused Floating Point Control Registers (FCRs) to be shown as 64-bit
with 64-bit targets.
This came from the legacy register format where all raw registers
matched the width of the architecture regardless of their actual size.
The correct size was then set in `mips_register_type' for cooked
registers presented to the user, which in the case of FCRs meant the
cooked size was always forced to 32 bits, reflecting their actual
hardware size, even though the raw format carried them in 64-bit
quantities on 64-bit targets. The upper 32 bits carried in the raw FCR
format have always been don't-cares, not actually retrieved from
hardware and never written back.
With the introduction of XML register descriptions the layout of
previously defined raw registers has been preserved, so as to keep
existing register handling code unchanged and make it easier for GDB and
`gdbserver' to interact with each other whether neither, either or both
parties talking over RSP support XML register descriptions. For the
XML-described case however `mips_register_type' is not used in raw to
cooked register conversion, so any special cases coded there are not
taken into account.
Instead a new function, `mips_pseudo_register_type', has been introduced
to handle size conversion, however lacking the special case for FCRs for
the Linux and the now defunct IRIX target. The correct size has been
maintained for embedded targets however, due to the bundling of FCRs
with the embedded registers under the `rawnum >= MIPS_EMBED_FP0_REGNUM +
32' condition.
Add the missing case to `mips_pseudo_register_type' then, referring to
the FCR indices explicitly, and observing that between
`MIPS_EMBED_FP0_REGNUM + 32' and `MIPS_FIRST_EMBED_REGNUM' there is an
unused register slot whose contents are ignored so with the removal of
embedded FCRs from under that condition we don't have to care about it
and we can refer to the embedded registers starting from
MIPS_FIRST_EMBED_REGNUM instead.
Add a test case too so that we have means to check automatically that
the correct user-visible size of FCRs is maintained.

This is GDB trying to print the location spec of the JIT event
breakpoint, but that's an internal breakpoint without one.
If I add a NULL check, then we see that the JIT breakpoint is now
pending (because its location has shlib_disabled set):
(gdb) maint info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
[...]
-8 jit events keep y <PENDING> inf 1
[...]
But that's incorrect. GDB should have managed to recreate the JIT
breakpoint's location for the second run. So the problem is
elsewhere.
The problem is that if the JIT loads at the same address on the second
run, we never recreate the JIT breakpoint, because we hit this early
return:
static int
jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
struct jit_program_space_data *ps_data)
{
[...]
if (ps_data->cached_code_address == addr)
return 0;
[...]
delete_breakpoint (ps_data->jit_breakpoint);
[...]
ps_data->jit_breakpoint = create_jit_event_breakpoint (gdbarch, addr);
Fix this by deleting the breakpoint and discarding the cached code
address when the objfile where the previous JIT breakpoint was found
is deleted/unloaded in the first place.
The test that was originally added for PR11094 doesn't trip on this
because:
#1 - It doesn't test the case of the JIT descriptor's address _not_
changing between reruns.
#2 - And then it doesn't do "maint info breakpoints", or really
anything with the JIT at all.
#3 - and even then, to trigger the problem the JIT descriptor needs
to be in a separate library, while the current test puts it in
the main program.
The patch extends the test to cover all combinations of these
scenarios.

In DWARF expression handling, some operators are required to be either
at the end of an expression or followed by a composition operator. So
far only the operators DW_OP_reg0-31 were allowed to be followed by
DW_OP_GNU_uninit instead, and particularly DW_OP_regx was not, which is
obviously inconsistent.
This patch allows DW_OP_GNU_uninit after all operators requiring a
composition, to simplify the code and make it more consistent. This
policy may be more permissive than necessary, but in the worst case just
leads to a DWARF location description resulting in an uninitialized
value instead of an error message.

The logging message is called too often - once for each register when it's
value has to be evaluated. This floods the screen for commands like "info

think that removing it is preferable.

Nowadays, there are a lot of duplication about
i386/{i386, amd64, x32}*-expedite in features/Makefile. However,
in features/Makefile, we have
echo "expedite:$(if $($*-expedite),$($*-expedite),$($(firstword $(subst -, ,$(notdir $*)))-expedite))" \
>> $(outdir)/$*.tmp
which means for a given bar/foo-baz.xml, we'll look for either
bar/foo-baz-expedite or foo-expedite. In x86 expedite registers, we
use the former now, but it will be much simpler if we use the latter.

three generic expedite. Re-run 'make GDB=/path/build/gdb all' to

With this patch, when an inferior, thread or frame is explicitly
selected by the user, notifications will appear on all CLI and MI UIs.
When a GDB console is integrated in a front-end, this allows the
front-end to follow a selection made by the user ont he CLI, and it
informs the user about selection changes made behind the scenes by the
front-end.
This patch addresses PR gdb/20487.
In order to communicate frame changes to the front-end, this patch adds
a new field to the =thread-selected event for the selected frame. The
idea is that since inferior/thread/frame can be seen as a composition,
it makes sense to send them together in the same event. The vision
would be to eventually send the inferior information as well, if we find
that it's needed, although the "=thread-selected" event would be
ill-named for that job.
Front-ends need to handle this new field if they want to follow the
frame selection changes that originate from the console. The format of
the frame attribute is the same as what is found in the *stopped events.
Here's a detailed example for each command and the events they generate:
thread
------
1. CLI command:
thread 1.3
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={...}
2. MI command:
-thread-select 3
CLI event:
[Switching to thread 1.3 ...]
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
thread 1.3
MI event/reply:
&"thread 1.3\n"
~"#0 child_sub_function () ...
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="0",...}
^done
frame
-----
1. CLI command:
frame 1
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1",...}
2. MI command:
-stack-select-frame 1
CLI event:
#1 0x00000000004007f0 in child_function...
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
frame 1
MI event/reply:
&"frame 1\n"
~"#1 0x00000000004007f9 in ..."
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1"...}
^done
inferior
--------
Inferior selection events only go from the console to MI, since there's
no way to select the inferior in pure MI.
1. CLI command:
inferior 2
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3"
Note that if the user selects an inferior that is not started or exited,
the MI doesn't receive a notification. Since there is no threads to
select, the =thread-selected event does not apply...
2. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
inferior 2
MI event/reply:
&"inferior 2\n"
~"[Switching to inferior 2 ...]"
=thread-selected,id="4",frame={level="0"...}
^done
Internal implementation detail: this patch makes it possible to suppress
notifications caused by a CLI command, like what is done in mi-interp.c.
This means that it's now possible to use the
add_com_suppress_notification function to register a command with some
event suppressed. It is used to implement the select-frame command in
this patch.
The function command_notifies_uscc_observer was added to extract
the rather complicated logical expression from the if statement. It is
also now clearer what that logic does: if the command used by the user
already notifies the user_selected_context_changed observer, there is
not need to notify it again. It therefore protects again emitting the
event twice.
No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 x86 with target boards unix and
native-extended-gdbserver.

jit_breakpoint_re_set() is specific by trying to insert a breakpoint into the
main executable, not into a shared library. During attachment GDB thinks it
needs to use 'breakpoint always-inserted' from
breakpoints_should_be_inserted_now() as a newly attached thread is
'thread_info->executing' due to 'lwp_info->must_set_ptrace_flags' enabled and
the task not yet stopped. This did not happen before the 'bad commit' above
which adds tracking of such thread.
GDB then fails to insert the breakpoints to invalid address as PIE executable
gets properly relocated during later phase of attachment. One can see in the
backtraces below:
-> jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal()
later:
-> svr4_exec_displacement()
One can suppress the initial breakpoint_re_set() call as there will be another
breakpoint_re_set() done from the final post_create_inferior() call in
setup_inferior().
BTW additionally 'threads_executing' cache bool is somehow stale (somewhere is
missing update_threads_executing()). I was trying to deal with that in my
first/second attempt below but in my final third attempt (attached) I have
left it as it is.
First attempt trying not to falsely require 'breakpoint always-inserted':
https://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/rhbz1375553-fix1.patch
Reduced first attempt:
https://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/rhbz1375553-fix2.patch
The third attempt suppresses breakpoint insertion until PIE executable gets
relocated by svr4_exec_displacement(). Applied.

use xsnprintf.

If xmalloc fails allocating memory, usually because something tried a
huge allocation, like xmalloc(-1) or some such, GDB asks the user what
to do:
.../src/gdb/utils.c:1079: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
If the user says "n", that throws a QUIT exception, which is caught by
one of the multiple CATCH(RETURN_MASK_ALL) blocks somewhere up the
stack.
The default implementations of operator new / operator new[] call
malloc directly, and on memory allocation failure throw
std::bad_alloc. Currently, if that happens, since nothing catches it,
the exception escapes out of main, and GDB aborts from unhandled
exception.
This patch replaces the default operator new variants with versions
that, just like xmalloc:
#1 - Raise an internal-error on memory allocation failure.
#2 - Throw a QUIT gdb_exception, so that the exact same CATCH blocks
continue handling memory allocation problems.
A minor complication of #2 is that operator new can _only_ throw
std::bad_alloc, or something that extends it:
void* operator new (std::size_t size) throw (std::bad_alloc);
That means that if we let a gdb QUIT exception escape from within
operator new, the C++ runtime aborts due to unexpected exception
thrown.
So to bridge the gap, this patch adds a new gdb_quit_bad_alloc
exception type that inherits both std::bad_alloc and gdb_exception,
and throws _that_.
If we decide that we should be catching memory allocation errors in
fewer places than all the places we currently catch them (everywhere
we use RETURN_MASK_ALL currently), then we could change operator new
to throw plain std::bad_alloc then. But I'm considering such a change
as separate matter from this one -- it'd make sense to do the same to
xmalloc at the same time, for instance.
Meanwhile, this allows using new/new[] instead of xmalloc/XNEW/etc.
without losing the "virtual memory exhausted" internal-error
safeguard.

ARC is a family of licensable processors developed by Synopsys.

* longjmp support
* signal frame handling
* prologue analysis
* Linux targets support
* native Linux support
ARC cores are configurable and extensible, which means from debugger
perspective that some registers and debug capabilities are optional, therefore
it is up to the GDB stub to determine exact list of register available on
target and supply it to GDB via XML target descriptions. List of registers
that is known to GDB and is required is intentionally kept small to simplify
requirements to GDB stub and implementation of a GDB client.

This fixes PR gdb/20604. The bug here is that passing an invalid
expression to "quit" -- e.g., "quit()" -- causes gdb to enter a
non-functioning state.
The immediate problem is that quit_force resets the terminal before
evaluating the expression. However, it seemed to me that it doesn't
really make sense to pass the quit_force argument to kill_or_detach
(which passes it to to_detach), first because conflating the exit
status for "quit" and the signal to pass when detaching doesn't make
sense, and second because to_detach implementations generally only
accept a constant here, while "quit" accepts an expression. So, I
removed that.
As an aside, I think the "detach SIGNO" functionality is not
documented.

Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-09/msg00203.html
The std::{min,max} patch caused build failures when configuring GDB
with with --disable-nls and using GCC 4.1.
The reason is this bit in common/gdb_locale.h:
#ifdef ENABLE_NLS
...
#else
# define gettext(Msgid) (Msgid)
...
#endif
This causes problems if the <libintl.h> header is first included at
any point after "gdb_locale.h".
Specifically, the gettext&co declarations in libintl.h:
extern char *gettext (__const char *__msgid)
__THROW __attribute_format_arg__ (1);
end up broken after preprocessing:
extern char *(__const char *__msgid)
throw () __attribute__ ((__format_arg__ (1)));
After the std::min/std::max change to include <algorithm>, this now
happens with at least the GCC 4.1 copy of <algorithm>, which includes
<libintl.h> via <bits/stl_algobase.h>, <iosfwd>, and
<bits/c++locale.h>.
The fix is to simply remove the troublesome *gettext and *textdomain
macros, leaving only the _ and N_ ones.

This patch consolidates the API of target_mourn_inferior between GDB
and gdbserver, in my continuing efforts to make sharing the
fork_inferior function possible between both.
GDB's version of the function did not care about the inferior's ptid
being mourned, but gdbserver's needed to know this information. Since
it actually makes sense to pass the ptid as an argument, instead of
depending on a global value directly (which GDB's version did), I
decided to make the generic API to accept it. I then went on and
extended all calls being made on GDB to include a ptid argument (which
ended up being inferior_ptid most of the times, anyway), and now we
have a more sane interface.
On GDB's side, after talking to Pedro a bit about it, we decided that
just an assertion to make sure that the ptid being passed is equal to
inferior_ptid would be enough for now, on the GDB side. We can remove
the assertion and perform more operations later if we ever pass
anything different than inferior_ptid.
Regression tested on our BuildBot, everything OK.
I'd appreciate a special look at gdb/windows-nat.c's modification
because I wasn't really sure what to do there. It seemed to me that
maybe I should build a ptid out of the process information there, but
then I am almost sure the assertion on GDB's side would trigger.

The problem is that the std::min/std::max function templates use the

the compiler can't automatically deduce which template specialization

On various GNU Elf architectures, including AArch64, ARM, s390/s390x,
ppc32/64, and sparc32/64, the dynamic loader passes HWCAP as a parameter
to each ifunc resolver. Currently there is an open glibc Bugzilla that
requests this to be generalized to all architectures:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19766
And various ifunc resolvers already rely on receiving HWCAP. Currently
GDB always calls an ifunc resolver without any arguments; thus the
resolver may receive garbage, and based on that, the resolver may decide
to return a function that is not suited for the given platform.
This patch always passes HWCAP to ifunc resolvers, even on systems where
the dynamic loader currently behaves otherwise. The rationale is
that (1) the dynamic loader may get adjusted on those systems as well in
the future; (2) passing an unused argument should not cause a problem
with existing resolvers; and (3) the logic is much simpler without such
a distinction.

I noticed that if input is already pending on the new-ui TTY, gdb
internal-errors.
E.g., create /dev/pts/2, and type anything there (even just <return>
is sufficient).
Now start GDB creating a new UI on that TTY, while at the same time,
running a synchronous execution command. Something like:
$ gdb program -ex "new-ui console /dev/pts/2" -ex "start"
Back on /dev/pts/2, we get:
(gdb) .../src/gdb/event-top.c:360: internal-error: double prompt
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
While the main UI was waiting for "start" to finish, gdb kepts pumping
events, including the input fd of the extra console. The problem is
that stdin_event_handler doesn't restore the current UI back to what
it was, assuming that it's only ever called from the top level event
loop. However, in this case, it's being called from the nested event
loop from within maybe_wait_sync_command_done.
When finally the "start" command is done, we reach the code that
prints the prompt in the main UI, just before starting the main event
loop. Since now the current UI is pointing at the extra console (by
mistake), we find ourselves printing a double prompt on the extra
console. This is caught by the assertion that fails, as shown above.
Since other event handlers also don't restore the UI (e.g., signal
event handlers), I think it's better if whatever is pumping events to
take care to restore the UI, if it cares. That's what this patch
does. New test included.

Now that all the prerequisites are in place, this commit finally adds support
for handling the __float128 type on Intel and Power, by providing appropriate
platform-specific versions of the floatformat_for_type callback.
Since at this point we do not yet have any indication in the debug info to
distinguish different floating-point formats of the same length, we simply
use the type name as hint. Types named "__float128" get the IEEE format.
In addition to handling "__float128" itself, we also recognize "_Float128"
and (on Power) "_Float64x", as well as the complex versions of those.
(As pointed out by Joseph Myers, starting with GCC 7, __float128 is just
a typedef for _Float128 -- but it's good to handle this anyway.)
A new test case does some simple verification that the format is decoded
correctly, using both __float128 and "long double" to make sure using both
in the same file still works. Another new test verifies handling of the
_FloatN and _FloatNx types supported by GCC 7, as well as the complex
versions of those types.
Note that this still only supports basic format decoding and encoding.
We do not yet support the GNU extension 'g' suffix for __float128 constants.
In addition, since all *arithmetic* on floating-point values is still
performed in native host "long double" arithmetic, if that format is not
able to encode all target __float128 values, we may get incorrect results.
(To fix this would require implementing fully synthetic target floating-
point arithmetic along the lines of GCC's real.c, presumably using MPFR.)

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.

Many callers of init_float_type and arch_float_type still pass a NULL
floatformat. This commit changes those callers where the floatformat
that is supposed to be use is obvious. There are two categories where
this is the case:
- A number of built-in types are intended to match the platform ABI
floating-point types (i.e. types that use gdbarch_float_bit etc.).
Those places should use the platform ABI floating-point formats
defined via gdbarch_float_format etc.
- A number of language built-in types should simply use IEEE floating-
point formats, since the language actually defines that this is the
format that must be used to implement floating-point types for this
language. (This affects Java, Go, and Rust.) The same applies for
to the predefined "RS/6000" stabs floating-point built-in types.

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.

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.

This fixes the problem exercised by Kevin's test at:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html
This was originally exposed by the OpenJDK Python-based unwinder.
If an unwinder attempts to call parse_and_eval from within its
sniffing method, GDB's unwinding machinery enters infinite recursion.
However, parse_and_eval is a pretty reasonable thing to call, because
Python/Scheme-based unwinders will often need to read globals out of
inferior memory. The recursion happens because:
- get_current_frame() is called soon after the target stops.
- current_frame is NULL, and so we unwind it from the sentinel frame
(which is special and has level == -1).
- We reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, which does cycle detection
based on frame id, and thus tries to compute the frame id of the new
frame.
- Frame id computation requires an unwinder, so we go through all
unwinder sniffers trying to see if one accepts the new frame (the
current frame).
- the unwinder's sniffer calls parse_and_eval().
- parse_and_eval depends on the selected frame/block, and if not set
yet, the selected frame is set to the current frame.
- get_current_frame () is called again. current_frame is still NULL,
so ...
- recurse forever.
In Kevin's test at:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html
gdb doesn't recurse forever simply because the Python unwinder
contains code to detect and stop the recursion itself. However, GDB
goes downhill from here, e.g., by showing the sentinel frame as
current frame (note the -1):
Breakpoint 1, ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23
23 }
(gdb) bt
#-1 ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
That "-1" frame level comes from this:
if (catch_exceptions (current_uiout, unwind_to_current_frame,
sentinel_frame, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) != 0)
{
/* Oops! Fake a current frame? Is this useful? It has a PC
of zero, for instance. */
current_frame = sentinel_frame;
}
which is bogus. It's never correct to set the current frame to the
sentinel frame. The only reason this has survived so long is that
getting here normally indicates something wrong has already happened
before and we fix that. And this case is no exception -- it doesn't
really matter how precisely we managed to get to that bogus code (it
has to do with the the stash), because anything after recursion
happens is going to be invalid.
So the fix is to avoid the recursion in the first place.
Observations:
#1 - The recursion happens because we try to do cycle detection from
within get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle. That requires computing the
frame id of the frame being unwound, and that itself requires
calling into the unwinders.
#2 - But, the first time we're unwinding from the sentinel frame,
when we reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, there's no frame chain
at all yet:
- current_frame is NULL.
- the frame stash is empty.
Thus, there's really no need to do cycle detection the first time we
reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, when building the current frame.
So we can break the recursion by making get_current_frame call a
simplified version of get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle that results in
setting the current_frame global _before_ computing the current
frame's id.
But, we can go a little bit further. As there's really no reason
anymore to compute the current frame's frame id immediately, we can
defer computing it to when some caller of get_current_frame might need
it. This was actually how the frame id was computed for all frames
before the stash-based cycle detection was added. So in a way, this
patch reintroduces the lazy frame id computation, but unlike before,
only for the case of the current frame, which turns out to be special.
This lazyness, however, requires adjusting
gdb.python/py-unwind-maint.exp, because that assumes unwinders are
immediately called as side effect of some commands. I didn't see a
need to preserve the behavior expected by that test (all it would take
is call get_frame_id inside get_current_frame), so I adjusted the
test.

Currently gdb supports DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address, but not
DW_OP_form_tls_address. I think it would be better if the toolchain
as a whole moved to using the standard opcode, and the prerequisite to
this is getting gdb to recognize it.
GCC can sometimes emit DW_OP_form_tls_address for emultls targets. As
far as I know, nobody has ever tried this with gdb (since it wouldn't
work at all).
I don't think there's a major drawback to using a single opcode for
all targets, because computing the location of a thread-local is
already target specific.
This is PR gdb/11616.
I don't know how to write a test case for this; though it's worth
noting that there aren't explicit tests for DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address
either -- and if I change GCC, these paths will be tested to the same
extent they are now.

It is my understanding that GDB used to require each architecture to
define a Frame Pointer (fp). However, this functionality was deprecated
some time ago so the call to setup the fp_reg was changed to deprecated
(set_gdbarch_deprecated_fp_regnum). It should have been removed from the
Power code.
That said, the code "set_gdbarch_deprecated_fp_regnum
(gdbarch, PPC_R0_REGNUM + 1);" sets up register r1 as the frame pointer.
Register r1 is no longer used to hold the frame pointer on Power. By
removing the fp definition for Power in GDB, it causes GDB to fall back
to the call get_frame_base_address (frame) which returns the correct value
depending on the specific senario but most of the time is the DWARF
canonical frame address.

The problem revolves around this:

that is what saves gdb's initial main UI terminal state (the UI
associated with stdin):
our_terminal_info.ttystate = serial_get_tty_state (stdin_serial);
This is the state that target_terminal_ours() restores.
- In this scenario, the gdb_has_a_terminal function happens to be
first ever called from within the target_terminal_init call in
startup_inferior:
(top-gdb) bt
#0 gdb_has_a_terminal () at src/gdb/inflow.c:157
#1 0x000000000079db22 in child_terminal_init_with_pgrp () at src/gdb/inflow.c:217
[...]
#4 0x000000000065bacb in target_terminal_init () at src/gdb/target.c:456
#5 0x00000000004676d2 in startup_inferior () at src/gdb/fork-child.c:531

#7 0x000000000046b168 in linux_nat_create_inferior () at src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1112
[...]
#9 0x00000000005f20c9 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/infcmd.c:657
If the command to start the inferior is issued on the main UI, then
readline will have deprepped the terminal when we reach the above, and
the problem doesn't appear.
If however the command is issued on a non-main UI, then when we reach
that gdb_has_a_terminal call, the main UI's terminal state is still
set to whatever readline has sets it to in rl_prep_terminal, which
happens to have echo disabled. Later, when the following synchronous
execution command finishes, we'll call target_terminal_ours to restore
gdb's the main UI's terminal settings, and that restores the terminal
state with echo disabled...
Conceptually, the fix is to move the gdb_has_a_terminal call earlier,
to someplace during GDB initialization, before readline/ncurses have
had a chance to change terminal settings. Turns out that
"set_initial_gdb_ttystate" is exactly such a place.
I say conceptually, because the fix actually inlines the
gdb_has_a_terminal part that saves the terminal state in
set_initial_gdb_ttystate and then simplifies gdb_has_a_terminal, since
there's no point in making gdb_has_a_terminal do lazy computation.

Loading a core dump that was either generated on a system running

The problem is that gdbarch_vsyscall_range does not support core

auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR, and then we find the vDSO's size by look for the
corresponding mapping, by parsing /proc/PID/maps. When debugging a
core dump, we can also determine the starting address from
auxv/AT_SYSINFO_EHDR. However, we obviously can't read the core
mappings out of the host's /proc. But we can instead look for a
corresponding load segment in the core's bfd.

Nowadays, we only match pre-indexed STP in prologue. Due to the change
in gcc, https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-07/msg01933.html, it
may generate "STP with base register" in prologue, which GDB doesn't
handle. That is to say, previously GCC generates prologue like this,
sub sp, sp, #490
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-96]!
mov x29, sp
with the gcc patch above, GCC generates prologue like like this,
sub sp, sp, #4f0
stp x29, x30, [sp]
mov x29, sp
This patch is to teach GDB to recognize this instruction in prologue

Running the fast tracepoints tests against x32 gdbserver exposes a

The test sets a fast tracepoint on a shared library. On x32, shared
libraries end up loaded somewhere in the upper 2GB of the 4GB address
space x32 has access to. When gdbserver needs to copy an instruction
to execute it in the jump pad, it asks gdb to relocate/adjust it, with
the qRelocInsn packet. gdb converts "call" instructions into a "push
$<2GB-4GB addr> + jmp" sequence, however, the "pushq" instruction sign
extends its operand, so later when the called function returns, it
returns to an incorrectly sign-extended address. E.g.,
0xfffffffffabc0000 instead of 0xfabc0000, resulting in the
segmentation fault.
Fix this by converting calls at such addresses to "sub + mov + jmp"
sequences instead.

GLIBC BZ#20311 introduced a change to install proc_service.h so that gdb
didn't have to use the version it embeds in gdb_proc_service.h. The
embedded version is guarded by HAVE_PROC_SERVICE_H and
gdb_proc_service.h has a number other of includes and definitions, all
of which are uncondional except for an include for gregset.h. This is
only included if HAVE_PROC_SERIVCE_H is not defined.
This causes a build failure when cross compiling gdb with the latest
glibc because type definitions in gregset are used independently of
HAVE_PROC_SERIVCE_H. In particular, they are used in gdb_proc_service.h
when PRFPREGSET_T_BROKEN is set.

The error is caused by the access to (*inp)[9] if 9 is out of its bounds.
However [1] looks odd to me, because if strncmp returns true (non-zero),
the following check "(*inp)[9] == ','" makes no sense any more. I
suspect it was a typo in the code we meant to "strncmp () == 0". Another
problem in the code above is that if *inp is "operator,", we first
increment *inp by 9, and then increment it by one again, which is wrong
to me. We should only increment *inp by 8 to skip "operator", and go
back to the loop header to decide where we stop.

Right after a fork is detected, we detach breakpoints from the child
(detach_breakpoints), which calls into target_remove_breakpoint with
inferior_ptid pointing at the child process, but leaves the breakpoint
marked inserted (in the parent).
The problem is that record-full.c always deletes all knowledge of the
breakpoint. Then when we later really delete the breakpoint from the
parent, we fail the assertion, since the breakpoint is unexpectedly
not found in the record-full.c breakpoint table.
The fix is simply to not forget about the breakpoint if we're

This is done by catching an exception number 0x406d1388 (it has no
documented name, though MSDN dubs it "MS_VC_EXCEPTION" in one code
example), which is thrown by the program. The exception record
contains an ID of a thread and a name to give it.
This requires rolling back some changes in handle_exception(), which
now again returns more than two distinct values. The new
HANDLE_EXCEPTION_IGNORED value means that gdb should just continue,
without returning the thread ID up the stack (which would result in
further handling of the exception, which is not what we want).

When executing commands on a secondary UI running the MI interpreter,
some commands that should be synchronous are not. MI incorrectly
continues processing input right after the synchronous command is
sent, before the target stops.
The problem happens when we emit MI async events (=library-loaded,
etc.), and we go about restoring the previous terminal state, we end
up calling target_terminal_ours, which incorrectly always installs the
current UI's input_fd in the event loop... That is, code like this:
old_chain = make_cleanup_restore_target_terminal ();
target_terminal_ours_for_output ();
fprintf_unfiltered (mi->event_channel, "library-loaded");
...
do_cleanups (old_chain);
The fix is to move the add_file_handler/delete_file_handler calls out
of target_terminal_$foo, making these completely no-ops unless called
with the main UI as current UI.

The problem is that when an exception is thrown, we leave the prompt
state set to PROMPT_BLOCKED, and then mi_execute_command_input_handler
doesn't print the prompt. It used to work because before that patch,
we happened to skip disabling stdin if the current target didn't do
async (which it never does before execution).
I was surprised to find that this bug isn't caught by the testsuite,
so I made a thorough test that tests all combinations of pairs of:
- a failing synchronous execution command
- a failing non-execution command
- a non-failing command

gdb's (or gdbserver's) own signal handling should not interfere with
the signal dispositions their spawned children inherit. However, it
currently does. For example, some paths in gdb cause SIGPIPE to be
set to SIG_IGN, and as consequence, the child starts with SIGPIPE to
set to SIG_IGN too, even though gdb was started with SIGPIPE set to
SIG_DFL.
This is because the exec family of functions does not reset the signal
disposition of signals that are set to SIG_IGN:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/execve.html
Signals set to the default action (SIG_DFL) in the calling process
image are set to the default action in the new process
image. Signals set to be ignored (SIG_IGN) by the calling process
image are set to be ignored by the new process image. Signals set to
be caught by the calling process image are set to the default action
in the new process image (see <signal.h>).
And neither does it reset signal masks or flags.
In order to be transparent, when spawning new child processes to debug
(with "run", etc.), reset signal actions and mask back to what was
originally inherited from gdb/gdbserver's parent, just before execing
the target program to debug.

unpack_value_bitfield is already optimized-out/unavailable -aware:
(...) VALADDR points to the contents of VAL. If the VAL's contents
required to extract the bitfield from are unavailable/optimized
out, DEST_VAL is correspondingly marked unavailable/optimized out.
however, it is not considering the case of the value having no
contents buffer at all, as can happen through
allocate_optimized_out_value.

I find the following test fail when I test native aarch64 gdb with
arm program,
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach-pie-noexec.exp: attach
set architecture arm^M
warning: Selected architecture arm is not compatible with reported target architecture aarch64^M
Architecture `arm' not recognized.^M
The target architecture is set automatically (currently aarch64)^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/attach-pie-noexec.exp: set architecture arm
GDB thinks the target is aarch64, but it isn't. Nowadays, we are
using some entries AT_PHENT and AT_HWCAP in auxv to determine whether
the process is a 32-bit arm one or 64-bit aarch64 one, and get the
right gdbarch. However, in the process of parsing auxv (in
inf_ptrace_auxv_parse), the size of int and data pointer of
target_gdbarch is used. If debug program exists (in most of cases),
target_gdbarch is already set according to the debug program, which
is arm in my case. Then, GDB can parse auxv successfully. However,
in gdb.base/attach-pie-noexec.exp, the debug program is removed,
target_gdbarch is aarch64 when GDB parse auxv, so GDB can't parse
it successfully.
Instead of using auxv, we check the return value of ptrace NT_ARM_VFP.
If the program is an arm process, NT_ARM_VFP is OK, otherwise, error
is returned.
Additionally, we only return tdesc_arm_with_neon for arm process,
because neon is mandatory on ARMv8.

PR python/18565 notes that calling frame filters don't work properly for

PR python/20190 arose from an exception I noticed when trying to use
the Python unwinder for Spider Monkey in Firefox.
The problem is that the unwinder wants to examine the value of a
thread-local variable. However, sympy_value rejects this because
symbol_read_needs_frame returns true for a TLS variable.
This problem arose once before, though in a different context:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11803
At the time Pedro and Daniel pointed out a simpler way to fix that bug
(see links in 20190 if you are interested); but for this new bug I
couldn't think of a similar fix and ended up implementing Daniel's
other suggestion:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-07/msg00393.html
That is, this patch makes it possible to detect whether a symbol needs
a specific frame, or whether it just needs the inferior to have
registers.

As described in Linux commit 55283e253771 (x32: Add ptrace for x32):
[...] PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR are only allowed to access

(linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx): Use PTRACE_GETREGS instead of
PTRACE_PEEKUSER.
Building an x32 gdb trips on a static assertion:
In file included from .../src/gdb/common/common-defs.h:71:0,
from .../src/gdb/nat/amd64-linux-siginfo.c:21:
.../src/gdb/common/gdb_assert.h:26:66: error: size of array ‘never_defined_just_used_for_checking’ is negative
extern int never_defined_just_used_for_checking[(expr) ? 1 : -1]
^
.../src/gdb/nat/amd64-linux-siginfo.c:113:1: note: in expansion of macro ‘gdb_static_assert’
gdb_static_assert (sizeof (nat_siginfo_t) == sizeof (siginfo_t));
^
The problem is that the way nat_siginfo_t is defined, it can only
match the host's siginfo_t object when gdb is built as a 64-bit
program.
Several bits of nat_siginfo_t are off:
- nat_siginfo_t's _pad field's definition is:
int _pad[((128 / sizeof (int)) - 4)];
while /usr/include/bits/siginfo.h has:
# define __SI_MAX_SIZE 128
# if __WORDSIZE == 64
# define __SI_PAD_SIZE ((__SI_MAX_SIZE / sizeof (int)) - 4)
# else
# define __SI_PAD_SIZE ((__SI_MAX_SIZE / sizeof (int)) - 3)
# endif
and __WORDSIZE == 32 for x32. This is what causes the size of
nat_siginfo_t to be wrong and the assertion to fail.
- the nat_clock_t type is incorrect for 64-bit. We have this:
/* For native 64-bit, clock_t in _sigchld is 64bit aligned at 4 bytes. */
typedef long __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (4))) nat_clock_t;
however, /usr/include/bits/siginfo.h has:
# if defined __x86_64__ && __WORDSIZE == 32
/* si_utime and si_stime must be 4 byte aligned for x32 to match the
kernel. We align siginfo_t to 8 bytes so that si_utime and si_stime
are actually aligned to 8 bytes since their offsets are multiple of
8 bytes. */
typedef __clock_t __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (4))) __sigchld_clock_t;
# define __SI_ALIGNMENT __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (8)))
# else
typedef __clock_t __sigchld_clock_t;
# define __SI_ALIGNMENT
# endif
So we're currently forcing 4-byte alignment on clock_t, when it
should only be so for x32, not 64-bit.
The fix:
- Leaves nat_siginfo_t strictly for the 64-bit ABI.
- Adds a new typedef for the siginfo type that ptrace uses
(ptrace_siginfo_t). An x32 gdb always gets/sets an x32 siginfo_t
type with PTRACE_GETSIGINFO/PTRACE_SETSIGINFO.
- Uses this new ptrace_siginfo_t type instead of nat_siginfo_t as the
intermediate conversion type.

When a bad interpreter name is passed to new-ui, such as:
(gdb) new-ui bloop /dev/pts/10
A partially created UI is left in the UI list, with interp set to NULL.
Trying to do anything that will print on this UI (such as "start") will
cause a segmentation fault.
Changes in v2:
- Use with_test_prefix to namespace test procedures
- Give an explicit stable test name
- Add a "bad terminal path" test
- Remove useless runto_main
- Add missing intro comments
I did not factor out the pty spawn, as there is some magic involved I
