GDB computes structure byte offsets using a 32 bit integer. And,
first it computes the offset in bits and then converts to bytes. The
result is that any offset that if 512K bytes or larger overflows.
This patch changes GDB to use LONGEST for such calculations.

I've traced the main source of the problem to pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref not being
implemented. Since gdb always assumes references are implemented as pointers, this
causes it to think that it's dealing with a NULL pointer, thus breaking any operations
involving synthetic references.
What I did here was implementing pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref using some of the synthetic
pointer handling code from indirect_pieced_value, as Pedro suggested. I also made a few
adjustments to the reference printing code so that it correctly shows either the address
of the referenced value or (if it's non-addressable) the "<synthetic pointer>" string.
I also wrote some unit tests based on Dwarf::assemble; these took a while to make
because in most cases I needed a synthetic reference to a physical variable. Additionally,
I started working on a unit test for classes that have a vtable, but ran into a few issues
so that'll probably go in a future patch. One thing that should definitely be fixed is that
proc function_range (called for MACRO_AT_func) will always try to compile/link using gcc
with the default options instead of g++, thus breaking C++ compilations that require e.g. libstdc++.

Before this patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00709.html
read_value_memory checks parameter 'stack', and call read_stack or
read_memory respectively. However, 'stack' is not checked and
TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY is always used in target_xfer_partial, which is
a mistake in the patch above.
This patch checks parameter 'stack', and choose TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY
or TARGET_OBJECT_STACK_MEMORY accordingly.
gdb:
2016-04-22 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* valops.c (read_value_memory): New local variable 'stack'.
Set it to either TARGET_OBJECT_STACK_MEMORY or
TARGET_OBJECT_MEMORY.
After compiling a program which uses C++ references some optimizations may
convert the references into synthetic "pointers". Trying to print the address
of one of such synthetic references causes gdb to crash with the following
error:
(gdb) print &ref
/build/buildd/gdb-7.7.1/gdb/dwarf2loc.c:1624: internal-error: Should not be able to create a lazy value with an enclosing type
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Apparently, what was causing it was that value_addr returns a copy of the value
that represents the reference with its type set to T* instead of T&. However,
its enclosing_type is left untouched, which fails a check made in
read_pieced_value. We only see the crash happen for references that are
synthetic because they're treated as pieced values, thus the call to
read_pieced_value.
On a related note, it seems that in general there are all sorts of breakage
when working with synthetic references. This is reported here:

* valops.c (value_string): Constify 'ptr' parameter.
* value.h (value_string): Constify 'ptr' parameter.
GDB's current behavior when dealing with non-local references in the
context of nested fuctions is approximative:
- code using valops.c:value_of_variable read the first available stack
frame that holds the corresponding variable (whereas there can be
multiple candidates for this);
- code directly relying on read_var_value will instead read non-local
variables in frames where they are not even defined.
This change adds the necessary context to symbol reads (to get the block
they belong to) and to blocks (the static link property, if any) so that
GDB can make the proper decisions when dealing with non-local varibale
references.

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

This patch updates various value handling functions to make them
consider the addressable memory unit size of the current architecture.
This allows to correctly extract and print values on architectures whose
addressable memory unit is not 8 bits.
The patch doesn't cover all the code that would ideally need to be
adjusted, only the code paths that we happen to use, plus a few obvious
ones. Specifically, those areas are not covered by this patch:
- Management of unavailable bits
- Bitfields
- C++ stuff

This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from
this:
~~~
volatile gdb_exception ex;
TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
if (ex.reason < 0)
{
}
~~~
to this:
~~~
TRY
{
}
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
~~~
Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and
declaring the caught exception in the catch block.
This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when
building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode
(using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step.
TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY
and the CATCH blocks, like:
TRY
{
}
// some code here.
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch.
By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block
scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile
exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more
directly to C++'s catch blocks.
The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was
done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual
editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places
needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were
using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases
where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH
after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB
still builds at each incremental step.
END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons:
First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which
requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere.
Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for
block, like:
#define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \
for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \
exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \
EXCEPTION = exception_none)
would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90,
which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code.
Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as
long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH
block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every
frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will
be done in END_CATCH.
After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until
cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will
save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH
catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so
that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist.
IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a
newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering
C++.

Adjust all callers of TRY_CATCH to use TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH
instead.
This commit introduces a new inline common function "startswith"
which takes two string arguments and returns nonzero if the first
string starts with the second. It also updates the 295 places
where this logic was written out longhand to use the new function.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/common-utils.h (startswith): New inline function.
All places where this logic was used updated to use the above.
In the situation described in bug 17416 [1]:
* "set print object" is on;
* The variable object is a pointer to a struct, and it contains an
invalid value (e.g. NULL, or random uninitialized value);
* The variable object (struct) has a child which is also a pointer to a
struct;
* We try to use "-var-list-children".
... an exception thrown in value_ind can propagate too far and leave an
half-built variable object, leading to a wrong state. This patch adds a
TRY_CATCH to catch it and makes value_rtti_indirect_type return NULL in
that case, meaning that the type of the pointed object could not be
found.
A test for the fix is also added.
New in v2:
* Added test.
* Restructured "catch" code.
* Added details about the bug in commit log.
gdb/Changelog:
* valops.c (value_rtti_indirect_type): Catch exception thrown by
value_ind.

Anytime you can remove a symbol lookup that loops over all objfiles
is A Good Thing.
The call to lookup_static_symbol in valops.c:value_maybe_namespace_elt
is redundant with this call in cp_lookup_nested_symbol:
/* Now search all static file-level symbols. We have to do this
for things like typedefs in the class. We do not try to
guess any imported namespace as even the fully specified
namespace search is already not C++ compliant and more
assumptions could make it too magic. */
size = strlen (parent_name) + 2 + strlen (nested_name) + 1;
concatenated_name = alloca (size);
xsnprintf (concatenated_name, size, "%s::%s",
parent_name, nested_name);
sym = lookup_static_symbol (concatenated_name, VAR_DOMAIN);
if (sym != NULL)
return sym;
Earlier in value_maybe_namespace_elt we do this:
sym = cp_lookup_symbol_namespace (namespace_name, name,
get_selected_block (0), VAR_DOMAIN);
That sequence goes like:
value_maybe_namespace_elt
-> cp_lookup_symbol_namespace
-> cp_lookup_symbol_in_namespace
-> lookup_symbol_file
-> cp_lookup_nested_symbol
-> lookup_static_symbol
The call was added in commit 41f62f3939.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-06/msg00663.html
With a part 2 here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-06/msg00664.html
At the time the call to lookup_static_symbol (spelled
lookup_static_symbol_aux at the time) was needed.
However, this patch, 8dea366bbe,
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-11/msg00387.html
augmented lookup_symbol_file to call cp_lookup_nested_symbol
and introduced the redundancy.
It's kinda buried, so it's totally not unexpected that this happened.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* valops.c (value_maybe_namespace_elt): Remove redundant call to
lookup_static_symbol.
Both allocate_value and value_of_variable are guaranteed to return non-NULL.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* valops.c (value_maybe_namespace_elt): Remove unnecessary test of
result != NULL.
and lookup_static_symbol_aux to lookup_static_symbol.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* symtab.c (lookup_static_symbol): Renamed from
lookup_static_symbol_aux. All callers updated.
(lookup_symbol_in_static_block): Renamed from lookup_symbol_static.
All callers updated.
On MIPS64 little endian, attempting an assignment to a bit field
that lives in a register yields the wrong result. It just corrupts
the data in the register depending on the specific position of the
bit field inside the structure.

=== gdb Summary ===
Now, GDB knows how to do bit field assignment properly, but MIPS is
one of those architectures that uses a hook for the register-to-value
conversion. Although we can properly tell when the type being passed
is a structure or union, we cannot tell when it is a bit field,
because the bit field data lives in a value structure. Such data
only lives in a "type" structure when the parent structure is being
referenced, thus you can collect them from the flds_bnds members.
A bit field type structure looks pretty much the same as any other
primitive type like int or char, so we can't distinguish them.
Forcing more fields into the type structure wouldn't help much,
because the type structs are shared.

* valops.c (value_assign): Check for bit field assignments

This commit moves the inclusion of errno.h to common-defs.h and
removes all other inclusions. Note that prior to this commit
server.h included errno.h protected by "#ifdef HAVE_ERRNO_H".
This protection was added with the Windows CE port, which is
currently broken. Since no other platform needs this, I have
removed the protection and the configury to support it.

This adds support for the C++11 "enum class" feature. This is
PR c++/15246.
I chose to use the existing TYPE_DECLARED_CLASS rather than introduce
a new type code. This seemed both simple and clear to me.
I made overloading support for the new enum types strict. This is how
it works in C++; and it didn't seem like an undue burden to keep this,
particularly because enum constants are printed symbolically by gdb.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.
