While digging into a different memory corruption error, I happened to
notice one coming from the linetable code. In a couple of spots, the
wrong termination condition was used in a loop, leading gdb to read
one element past the end of the linetable.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18. Also verified using
valgrind. I'm checking this in.

dw2-case-insensitive.exp: p fuNC_lang fails on arm. The problem occurs
when thumb mode code is generated. On ARM last bit of function pointer
value indicates whether the target function is an ARM (if 0) or Thumb
(if 1) routine. The PC address should refer to actual address in
either case. This patch adds new compile unit and function labels to
code which act as address ranges of compile unit and functions in
debug information. Therefore address ranges will have correct
addresses and not the ones with an incremented least significant bit.
This patch has been tested on x86_64 and arm machines.

Frontend sometimes need to evaluate expressions that are
language-specific. For instance, Eclipse uses the following
expression to determine the size of an address on the target:
-data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
Unfortunately, if the main of the program being debugged is not C,
this may not work. For instance, if the main is in Ada, you get...
-data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
^error,msg="No definition of \"sizeof\" in current context."
... and apparently decides to stop the debugging session as a result.
The recommendation sent was to specifically set the language to C
before trying to evaluate the expression. Something such as:
1. save current language
2. set language c
3. -data-evaluate-expression "sizeof (void*)"
4. Restore language
This has the same disadvantages as the ones outlined in the "Context
Management" section of the GDB/MI documentation regarding setting
the current thread or the current frame, thus recommending the use of
general command-line switches such as --frame, or --thread instead.
This patch follows the same steps for the language, adding a similar
new command option: --language LANG. Example of use:
-data-evaluate-expression --language c "sizeof (void*)"
^done,value="4"

Rather than having -list-features report support for the GDB/MI
commands providing access to Ada exception catchpoints with one entry,
and the GDB/MI command providing the list of Ada exceptions with
a second entry, this patch merges it all within one single entry.
This is OK, because all these commands were added within a short
amount of time, and within the same release cycle; and it reduces
a bit the size of the output.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_list_features): Replace "info-ada-exceptions"
entry with "ada-exceptions".
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Miscellaneous Commands): Delete

of the "-list-features" command. Add the documentation
of the "ada-exception" entry instead.
This patch aims at fixing the following problem, where the user:
. debugs its program
. makes a modification and rebuilds it *without exiting the debugger*
. returns to its debugging session and restarts the inferior
In that situation, the debugger notices that the underlying executable
has changed and that re-reading its symbols is needed. Shortly after
displaying a message informing the user of the situation, GDB crashes:
(gdb) run
[...]
`/[...]/dest' has changed; re-reading symbols.
zsh: 13434922 segmentation fault (core dumped)
The crash occurs while trying to allocate some memory on the bfd_bfd
obstack. But, at some point in time, the whole obstack data gets
corrupted, nullified. So the memory allocation fails trying to call
a function at a NULL address. (side note: when debugging GDB in GDB,
top-gdb reports a SIGILL, while the shell makes it look like it was
a SIGSEGV - the discrepancy is not critical to the investigation
and therefore was not explored)
The corruption occurred because the region where the per_bfd data
got free'ed nearly after it got allocated! This is what happens,
in chronological order (see reread_symbols):
1. GDB notices that the executable has changed, decides to
re-read its symbols.
2. Opens a new bfd, unrefs the old one
3. Calls set_objfile_per_bfd (objfile);
4. Re-initializes the objfile's obstack:
obstack_init (&objfile->objfile_obstack);
I think that the normal behavior for set_objfile_per_bfd would
be to search for already-allocated shared per_bfd data, and
allocate new one if not found. The critical difference between
a platform such as x86_64-linuxe where it works, and ppc-aix,
where it doesn't lies in the fact that bfd-data sharing is not
activated on ppc-aix, and as a result, the per-bfd data gets
allocated on the objfile's obstack instead of in the bfd objalloc:
/* If the object requires gdb to do relocations, we simply fall
back to not sharing data across users. These cases are rare
enough that this seems reasonable. */
if (abfd != NULL && !gdb_bfd_requires_relocations (abfd))
{
storage = bfd_zalloc (abfd, sizeof (struct objfile_per_bfd_storage));
set_bfd_data (abfd, objfiles_bfd_data, storage);
}
else
storage = OBSTACK_ZALLOC (&objfile->objfile_obstack,
struct objfile_per_bfd_storage);
Allocating that per_bfd storage is of course nearly useless since
we end up free-ing right after in step (4) above. Eventually,
the memory region ends up being re-used, hence the corruption
leading to the crash.
This fix was simply to move the call to set_objfile_per_bfd after
the objfile's obstack re-initialization.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* symfile.c (reread_symbols): Move call to set_objfile_per_bfd
after re-initialization of OBJFILE's obstack.
Upstream GCC's new pass '-fisolate-erroneous-paths' may introduce
traps at places where GCC has determined undefined behavior, e.g. when
passing a NULL pointer to a function that defines this argument as
__attribute__(__nonnull__(...)). In particular this applies to
uniquify_strings(), because it invokes qsort() with NULL when the
'strings' vector is empty. I hit this problem on s390x when trying to
execute "break main" on a C program.

field in the output of the "-list-features" command.
* NEWS: Add entry for the new "info exceptions" CLI command,
and for the new "-info-ada-exceptions" GDB/MI command.
This patch implements a new GDB/MI command implementing the equivalent
of the "info exceptions" CLI command. The command syntax is:
-info-ada-exceptions [REGEXP]
Here is an example of usage (slightly formatted by hand to make it
easier to read):
-info-ada-exceptions ions\.a_
^done,ada-exceptions=
{nr_rows="2",nr_cols="2",
hdr=[{width="1",alignment="-1",col_name="name",colhdr="Name"},
{width="1",alignment="-1",col_name="address",colhdr="Address"}],
body=[{name="global_exceptions.a_global_exception",
address="0x0000000000613a80"},
{name="global_exceptions.a_private_exception",
address="0x0000000000613ac0"}]}
Also, in order to allow graphical frontends to easily determine
whether this command is available or not, the output of the
"-list-features" command has been augmented to contain
"info-ada-exceptions".
gdb/Changelog:
* mi/mi-cmds.h (mi_cmd_info_ada_exceptions): Add declaration.
* mi/mi-cmds.c (mi_cmds): Add entry for -info-ada-exceptions
command.
* mi/mi-cmd-info.c: #include "ada-lang.c" and "arch-utils.c".
(mi_cmd_info_ada_exceptions): New function.
* mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_list_features): Add "info-ada-exceptions".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/mi_exc_info: New testcase.
This patch adds a new command "info exceptions" whose purpose is to
provide the list of exceptions currently defined in the inferior.
The usage is:
(gdb) info exceptions [REGEXP]
Without argument, the command lists all exceptions. Otherwise,
only those whose name match REGEXP are listed.
For instance:
(gdb) info exceptions
All defined Ada exceptions:
constraint_error: 0x613dc0
program_error: 0x613d40
storage_error: 0x613d00
tasking_error: 0x613cc0
global_exceptions.a_global_exception: 0x613a80
global_exceptions.a_private_exception: 0x613ac0
The name of the command, as well as its output is part of a legacy
I inherited long ago. It's output being parsed by frontends such as
GPS, I cannot easily change it. Same for the command name.
The implementation is mostly self-contained, and is written in a way
that should make it easy to implement the GDB/MI equivalent. The
careful reviewer will notice that the code added in ada-lang.h could
normally be made private inside ada-lang.c. But these will be used
by the GDB/MI implementation. Rather than making those private now,
only to move them later, I've made them public right away.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.h: #include "vec.h".
(struct ada_exc_info): New.

(_initialize_ada_language): Add "info exception" command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/info_exc: New testcase.
When using the GDB/MI commands to insert a catchpoint on a specific
Ada exception, any re-evaluation of that catchpoint (for instance
a re-evaluation performed after a shared library got mapped by the
inferior) fails. For instance, with any Ada program:
(gdb)
-catch-exception -e program_error
^done,bkptno="1",bkpt={[...]}
(gdb)
-exec-run
=thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="28315"
=thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1"
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)
=library-loaded,[...]
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
[...]
The same is true if using an Ada exception catchpoint.
The problem comes from the fact that that we deallocate the strings
given as arguments to create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while the latter
just makes shallow copies of those strings, thus creating dandling
pointers.
This patch fixes the issue by passing freshly allocated strings to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while at the same time updating
create_ada_exception_catchpoint's documentation to make it clear
that deallocating the strings is no longer the responsibility of
the caller.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Enhance
the documentation of fields "except_string" and "condition".
* mi/mi-cmd-catch.c (mi_cmd_catch_assert): Reallocate
CONDITION on the heap before passing it to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint.
(mi_cmd_catch_exception): Likewise for EXCEPTION_NAME and
CONDITION.

* gdb.ada/mi_ex_cond: New testcase.
Tested on x86_64-linux. The "-break-list" test FAILs without
this patch.
An earlier patch removed the check for "syscall" since the results
were not used in the C code. However, the result was used, via the
cache variable, elsewhere in configure.
This patch fixes the problem by checking for "syscall" at the point at
which HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL is defined.
2013-11-11 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>
* config.in, configure: Rebuild.
* configure.ac (HAVE_TKILL_SYSCALL): Check for "syscall".
Some places in elf64-ppc.c carelessly used SYMBOL_CALLS_LOCAL when
the proper test is SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL for cases where we take the
address of a protected symbol. This works OK for function descriptors
but not for ELFv2. Setting symbols to their global entry stub a
little earlier is to ensure _bfd_elf_hash_symbol allows such symbols
in .gnu.hash.
* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_edit_toc): Use SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL
here, not SYMBOL_CALLS_LOCAL.
(ppc64_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
(size_global_entry_stubs): Set undefined symbols on their global
entry stubs here..
(build_global_entry_stubs): ..rather than here.
