Patch [1] broke a build on MinGW hosts, because MinGW doesn't provide POSIX
functions setenv () and unsetenv (). This can be fixed by using
implementations from gnulib.

I am really not sure if what this patch does is good, but it is my best
guess. DW_OP_addr means that there's an constant address provided by
the DWARF bytecode that should be pushed on the stack. That address is
considered skipped by the "op_ptr += addr_size", but it is never read.
uoffset is indeed read just after, without having been assigned first.
So I think the intent is to read the address, it was just omitted.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* compile/compile-loc2c.c (do_compile_dwarf_expr_to_c): Read
address when op is DW_OP_addr.
This Rust bug report:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41970
noted an error from gdb. What is happening here (for me, the original
report had a different error) is that a pieced DWARF expression is not
writing to every byte in the resulting value. GDB errors in this
case. However, it seems to me that it is always valid to write fewer
bytes; the issue comes from writing too many -- that is, the test is
reversed. The test was also checking the sub-object, but this also
seems incorrect, as it's expected for the expression to write the
entirety of the enclosing object. So, this patch reverses the test
and applies it to the outer type, not the subobject type.
Regtested on the buildbot.

* gdb.dwarf2/shortpiece.exp: New file.
FreeBSD recently added a new ELF core note which dumps the entire LWP
info structure (the same structure returned by the ptrace PT_LWPINFO
operation) for each thread. The plan is for this note to eventually
supplant the older "thrmisc" ELF core note as it contains more
information and it permits new information to be exported via both
ptrace() and core dumps using the same structure.
For signal information, the implementation is similar to the native
implementation for FreeBSD processes. The PL_FLAG_SI flag must be
checked to determine if the embedded siginfo_t structure is valid, and
if so it is transferred into the caller's buffer.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* fbsd-tdep.c (LWPINFO_OFFSET, LWPINFO_PL_FLAGS)

(fbsd_init_abi): Install gdbarch "core_xfer_siginfo" method.
Previously the core_xfer_partial method used core_get_siginfo to handle
TARGET_OBJECT_SIGNAL_INFO requests. However, core_get_siginfo looked for
Linux-specific sections in the core file. To support fetching siginfo
from cores on other systems, add a new gdbarch method (`core_xfer_siginfo`)
and move the body of the existing core_get_siginfo into a
linux_core_xfer_siginfo implementation of this method in linux-tdep.c.

* corelow.c (get_core_siginfo): Remove.
(core_xfer_partial): Use the gdbarch "core_xfer_siginfo" method
instead of get_core_siginfo.

Use the `pl_siginfo' field in the `struct ptrace_lwpinfo' object returned
by the PT_LWPINFO ptrace() request to supply the current contents of
$_siginfo for each thread. Note that FreeBSD does not supply a way to
modify the signal information for a thread, so $_siginfo is read-only for
FreeBSD.
To handle 32-bit processes on a 64-bit host, define types for 32-bit
compatible siginfo_t and convert the 64-bit siginfo_t to the 32-bit
equivalent when supplying information for a 32-bit process.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* fbsd-nat.c [PT_LWPINFO && __LP64__] (union sigval32)

[PT_LWPINFO] (fbsd_siginfo_size, fbsd_convert_siginfo): New.
(fbsd_xfer_partial) [PT_LWPINFO]: Handle TARGET_OBJECT_SIGNAL_INFO
via ptrace(PT_LWPINFO).
As with Linux architectures, cache the created type in the gdbarch when it
is first created. Currently FreeBSD uses an identical siginfo type on
all architectures, so there is no support for architecture-specific fields.

In some cases a compiler may produce a single object file (& thus single
DWO file) representing multiple source files. The most common example of
this is in whole program optimization (such as LLVM's LTO). Fission may
still be a beneficial feature to use here - to avoid the need to
read/link the debug info with system libraries and the like.
This change adds basic support for multiple CUs in a single DWO file to
support LLVM's output in this situation.
There is still outstanding work to design and implement a solution for
cross-CU references (usually using DW_FORM_ref_addr) in this scenario.
For now LLVM works around this by duplicating DIEs rather than making
cross-CU references in DWO files. This degrades debugger
behavior/quality especially for file-local entities.

The gdb.python/py-unwind.exp test is crashing GDB / leaving core dumps
in the test dir, even though it all passes cleanly. The crash is not
visible in gdb.sum/gdb.log because it happens as side effect of the
"quit" command, while flushing the frame cache.
The problem is simply a typo in a 'for' loop's condition, introduced
by a recent change [4fa847d78e ("Remove MAX_REGISTER_SIZE from
py-unwind.c")], resulting in infinite loop / double-free.
The new test exposes the crash, like:

My last commit fixed a regression that happened when using
inline/multi-line commands for Python/Compile/Guile, but introduced
another regression: it is now not possible to use aliases for the
commands mentioned above. The fix is to almost revert the change I've
made and go back to using the 'struct cmd_list_element *', but at the
same time make sure that we advance the 'cmd_name' variable past all
the whitespace characters after the command name. If, after skipping
the whitespace, we encounter a '\0', it means that the command is not
inline. Otherwise, it is.
This patch also expands the testcase in order to check for aliases and
for trailing whitespace after the command name.

This bug is a regression caused by the following commit:
604c4576fd is the first bad commit
commit 604c4576fd
Author: Jerome Guitton <guitton@adacore.com>
Date: Tue Jan 10 15:15:53 2017 +0100
The problem happens because, on cli/cli-script.c:process_next_line,
GDB is not using the command line string to identify which command to
run, but it instead using the 'struct cmd_list_element *' that is
obtained by using the mentioned string. The problem with that is that
the 'struct cmd_list_element *' doesn't have any information on
whether the command issued by the user is a multi-line or inline one.
A multi-line command is a command that will necessarily be composed of
more than 1 line. For example:
(gdb) if 1
>python
>print ('hello')
>end
>end
As can be seen in the example above, the 'python' command actually
"opens" a new command line (represented by the change in the
indentation) that will then be used to enter Python code. OTOH, an
inline command is a command that is "self-contained" in a single line,
for example:
(gdb) if 1
>python print ('hello')
>end
This Python command is a one-liner, and therefore there is no other
Python code that can be entered for this same block. There is also no
change in the indentation.
So, the fix is somewhat simple: we have to revert the change and use
the full command line string passed to process_next_line in order to
identify whether we're dealing with a multi-line or an inline command.
This commit does just that. As can be seen, this regression also
affects other languages, like guile or the compile framework. To make
things clearer, I decided to create a new helper function responsible
for identifying a non-inline command.
Testcase is attached.

This commit fixes a mismatch between what "print" command completer
thinks the command understands, and what the command actually
understands.
The explicit location options are understood by commands that take
(linespecs and) explicit locations as argument. I.e, breakpoint
commands, and "list". For example:
(gdb) b -source file.c -function my_func
So for those commands, it makes sense that the completer
completes:
"b -sour[TAB]" -> "b -source "
"b -functi[TAB]" -> "b -function "
etc.
However, completion for commands that take expressions (not
linespecs/locations) as arguments, such as the "print" command, also
completes the explicit location options, even though those switches
aren't really understood by these commands. Instead, "-foo" is
understood as an expression applying unary minus on a symbol named
"foo" (think "print -1"):
(gdb) p -func[TAB]
(gdb) p -function [RET]
No symbol "function" in current context.
The patch fixes this by having the expression_completer function
bypass the function that completes explicit locations.
New regression tests included.

where location_completer is called."

original explicit locations patch:

Fix issue exposed by commit 3e29f34.
The basic issue is that section data referenced through an objfile
pointer can also be referenced via the program-space data pointer,
although via a separate mapping mechanism, which is set up by
update_section_map. Thus once section data attached to an objfile
pointer is released, the section map associated with the program-space
data pointer must be marked dirty to ensure that update_section_map is
called to prevent stale data being referenced. For the matter at hand
this marking is being done via a call to objfiles_changed.
Before commit 3e29f34 objfiles_changed could be called after all of
the objfile pointers were processed in reread_symbols since section
data references via the program-space data pointer would not occur in
the calls of read_symbols performed by reread_symbols.
With commit 3e29f34 MIPS target specific calls to find_pc_section were
added to the code for DWARF information processing, which is called
via read_symbols. Thus in reread_symbols the call to objfiles_changed
needs to be called before calling read_symbols, otherwise stale
section data can be referenced.
Thanks to Luis Machado for providing text for the main comment
associated with the change.

A following patch will want to add a std::vector to
objfile_per_bfd_storage. That makes it non-trivially
constructible/destructible. Since objfile_per_bfd_storage objects are
allocated on an obstack, we need to call their ctors/dtors manually.
This is what this patch does. And then since we can now rely on
ctors/dtors being run, make objfile_per_bfd_storage::storage_obstack
be an auto_obstack.

This commit eliminates make_cleanup_obstack_free, replacing it with a
new auto_obstack type that inherits obstack to add cdtors.
These changes in the parsers may not be obvious:
- obstack_init (&name_obstack);
- make_cleanup_obstack_free (&name_obstack);
+ name_obstack.clear ();
Here, the 'name_obstack' variable is a global. The change means that
the obstack's contents from a previous parse will stay around until
the next parsing starts. I.e., memory won't be reclaimed until then.
I don't think that's a problem, these objects don't really grow much
at all.
The other option I tried was to add a separate type that is like
auto_obstack but manages an external obstack, just for those cases. I
like the current approach better as that other approach adds more
boilerplate and yet another type to learn.

The issue was introduced by commit
"Share fork_inferior et al with gdbserver"
because it changed the place where the dummy thread (pid, 0, 0) is added,
relative to the call to the init_trace_fun callback. In this callback, darwin
checks for new threads in the program (there should be exactly one) in order to
update this dummy thread with the right tid. Previously, things happened in
this order:
- fork_inferior calls fork()
- fork_inferior adds dummy thread
- fork_inferior calls init_trace_fun callback, which updates the dummy
thread info
Following the commit mentioned above, the new thread is added in the
darwin-nat code, after having called fork_inferior (in
darwin_create_inferior). So gdb tries to do things in this order:
- fork_inferior calls fork()
- fork_inferior calls init_trace_fun callback, which tries to update
the dummy thread info
- darwin_create_inferior adds the dummy thread
The error happens while trying to update the dummy thread that has not
been added yet.
I don't think this dummy thread is necessary for darwin. Previously, it
was fork_inferior that was adding this thread, for all targets, so
darwin had to deal with it. Now that it's done by targets themselves,
we can just skip that on darwin. darwin_check_new_threads called
indirectly by init_trace_fun/darwin_ptrace_him will simply notice the
new thread and add it with the right information.
My level of testing was: try to start a process and try to attach to a
process, and it seems to work somewhat like it did before. I tried to
run the testsuite, but it leaves a huge amount of zombie processes that
launchd doesn't seem to reap, leading to exhaustion of system resources
(number of processes).

Warn whenever a static function is declared but not defined or a non-inline static function is unused. This warning is enabled by -Wall.
So it's probably not a GCC bug that it doesn't find this unused function, but a
different definition of "unused".
gdb/ChangeLog:
* record-full.c (netorder16): Remove.
clang has a too aggressive (or broken, depends on how you want to see
it) -Wunused-function warning, which is triggered by the functions
defined by DEF_VEC_* but not used in the current source file. Normally,
it won't warn about unused static inline functions defined in header
files, because it's expected that a source file won't use all functions
defined in a header file it includes. However, if the DEF_VEC_* macro
is used in a source file, it considers those functions as defined in the
source file, which leads it to think that we should remove those
functions. It is therefore missing a check to see whether those
functions are resulting from macro expansion. A bug already exists for
that:
https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=22712
It's quite easy to silence this warning in a localized way, that is in
the DEF_VEC_* macros.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/diagnostics.h: Define macros for GCC.
(DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE_UNUSED_FUNCTION): New macro.
* common/vec.h: Include diagnostics.h.
(DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE_UNUSED_VEC_FUNCTION): New macro.
(DEF_VEC_I, DEF_VEC_P, DEF_VEC_O): Ignore -Wunused-function
warning.
Some older versions of flex (such as the one shipped with macOS) generate
code that use the register keyword, which clang warns about. This patch

New macro.
* ada-lex.l: Ignore deprecated register warnings.

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dtrace-probe.c:424:52: note: put the semicolon on a separate line to silence this warning
Putting the semicolon on its own line is not a big sacrifice to get rid of this
warning. I think it's also useful to keep this, because it can catch errors
like this:
while (something);
{
...
}
although gcc would warn about it in a different way (misleading indentation).

Ignoring the warning locally is the right thing to do, since it warns
about behavior we want to unit test, while an explicit self-move in
real code would likely be a mistake that we'd want to catch.

This is the portion of gdb_test which performs the match against
the RE (regular expression) passed to it:
return [gdb_test_multiple $command $message {
-re "\[\r\n\]*($pattern)\[\r\n\]+$gdb_prompt $" {
if ![string match "" $message] then {
pass "$message"
}
}
In a test that I've been working on recently, I wanted to use
a backreference - that's the \1 in the the RE below:
gdb_test "info threads" \
{.*[\r\n]+\* +([0-9]+) +Thread[^\r\n]* do_something \(n=\1\) at.*}
Put into English, I wanted to make sure that the value of n passed to
do_something() is the same as the thread number shown in the "info
threads" Id column. (I've structured the test case so that this
*should* be the case.)
It didn't work though. It turned out that ($pattern) in the RE
noted above is capturing the attempted backreference. So, in this
case, the backreference does not refer to ([0-9]+) as intended, but
instead refers to ($pattern). This is wrong because it's not what I
intended, but is also wrong because, if allowed, it could only match a
string of infinite length.
This problem can be fixed by using parens for a "noncapturing
subpattern". The way that this is done, syntactically, is to use
(?:$pattern) instead of ($pattern).
My research shows that this feature has been present since tcl8.1 which
was released in 1999.
The current tcl version is 8.6 - at least that's what I have on my
machine. It appears to me that mingw uses some subversion of tcl8.4
which will also have this feature (since 8.4 > 8.1).
So it seems to me that any platform upon which we might wish to test
GDB will have a version of tcl which has this feature. That being the
case, my hope is that there won't be any objections to its use.
When I looked at the implementation of gdb_test, I wondered whether
the parens were needed at all. I've concluded that they are. In the
event that $pattern is an RE which uses alternation at the top level,
e.g. a|b, we need to make $pattern a subpattern (via parens) to limit
the extend of the alternation. I.e, we don't want the alternation to
extend to the other portions of the RE which gdb_test uses to match
potential blank lines at the beginning of the pattern or the gdb
prompt at the end.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.exp (gdb_test): Using noncapturing parens for the $pattern
subpattern.
The commit
d309493 target: consider addressable unit size when reading/writing memory
introduced the possibility of reading memory of targets with
non-8-bit-bytes (e.g. memories that store 16 bits at each address).
The documentation of target_read and target_write was updated
accordingly, but to_xfer_partial, which is very related, wasn't updated.
This commit fixes that.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target.h (struct target_ops) <to_xfer_partial>: Update doc to
talk about addressable units instead of bytes.
Even though C++11 supports modifying containers using a const_iterator
(e.g., calling the 'erase' method of a std::vector), early versions of
libstdc++ did not implement that. Some of our buildslaves are using
these versions (e.g., the AArch64 buildslave uses gcc 4.8.8), and my
previous commit causes a breakage on them. The solution is simple:
just use a normal iterator, without const.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-20 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* common/environ.c (gdb_environ::unset): Use '::iterator' instead
of '::const_iterator'.
As part of the preparation necessary for my upcoming task, I'd like to
propose that we turn gdb_environ into a class. The approach taken
here is simple: the class gdb_environ contains everything that is
needed to manipulate the environment variables. These variables are
stored in an std::vector<char *>, which can be converted to a 'char
**' and passed as argument to functions that need it.
The usage has not changed much. As per Pedro's suggestion, this class
uses a static factory method initialization. This means that when an
instance is created, it is initially empty. When needed, it has to be
initialized using the static method 'from_host_environ'.
As mentioned before, this is a preparation for an upcoming work that I
will be posting in the next few weeks or so. For that work, I'll
probably create another data structure that will contain all the
environment variables that were set by the user using the 'set
environment' command, because I'll need access to them. This will be
much easier with the class-ification of gdb_environ.
As noted, this has been regression-tested with the new version of
environ.exp and no regressions were found.

I considered making 'gdb::unlinker::unlinker(const char *)'

On noMMU platforms, the following code gets compiled:
child_stack = xmalloc (STACK_SIZE * 4);
Where child_stack is a gdb_byte*, and xmalloc() returns a void*. While
the lack of cast is valid in C, it is not in C++, causing the
following build failure:
../nat/linux-ptrace.c: In function 'int linux_fork_to_function(gdb_byte*, int (*)(void*))':
../nat/linux-ptrace.c:273:29: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'gdb_byte* {aka unsigned char*}' [-fpermissive]

gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
In warning.m4, we pass all the warning flags one by one to the compiler
to test if they are supported by this particular compiler. If the
compiler exits with an error, we conclude that this warning flag is not
supported and exclude it. This allows us to use warning flags without
having to worry about which versions of which compilers support each
flag.
clang, by default, only emits a warning if an unknown flag is passed:
warning: unknown warning option '-Wfoo' [-Wunknown-warning-option]
The result is that we think that all the warning flags we use are
supported by clang (they are not), and the compilation fails later when
building with -Werror, since the aforementioned warning becomes an
error. The fix is to also pass -Werror when probing for supported
flags, then we'll correctly get an error when using an unknown warning,
and we'll exclude it:
error: unknown warning option '-Wfoo' [-Werror,-Wunknown-warning-option]
I am not sure why there is a change in a random comment in
gdbserver/configure, but I suppose it's a leftfover from a previous

Enforce CPU model for disassembler via its options, if it was specified in XML
target description, otherwise use default method of determining CPU implemented
in disassembler - scanning ELF private header. The latter requires
disassemble_info->section to be properly initialized. To make sure that
info->section is set in all cases this patch partially reverts [1] for ARC: it
reinstates arc_delayed_print_insn as a "print_insn" function for ARC, but
now this function only sets disassemble_info->section and then calls
default_print_insn to do the rest of the job.
Support for CPU in disassembler options for ARC has been added in [2].

that is, opcodes is able to select the right disassembler, so gdb

The new test var-access.exp causes FAILs on i686. This is because the
test chooses the wrong name for DWARF register number 1: It uses
"edx" (which corresponds to DWARF register number 2), but should have used
"ecx" instead.
Also, the current logic in var-access.exp does not correctly distinguish
between a 64-bit and a 32-bit program on an x86-64 target. It uses the
64-bit register names for both.
These problems are fixed. In order to address the latter, the convenience
macros is_*_target are exploited where appropriate.

managed with xmalloc/make_cleanup(xfree) with gdb::vector<gdb_byte>.
That usually pessimizes the code a little bit because std::vector
value-initializes elements (which for gdb_byte means
zero-initialization), while if you're creating a temporary buffer,
you're most certaintly going to fill it in with some data. An
alternative is to use
unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
but it looks like that's not very popular.
Recently, a use of obstacks in dwarf2read.c was replaced with
std::vector<gdb_byte> and that as well introduced a pessimization for
always memsetting the buffer when it's garanteed that the zeros will
be overwritten immediately. (see dwarf2read.c change in this patch to
find it.)
So here's a different take at addressing this issue "by design":
#1 - Introduce default_init_allocator<T>
I.e., a custom allocator that does default construction using default
initialization, meaning, no more zero initialization. That's the
default_init_allocation<T> class added in this patch.
See "Notes" at
<http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/vector/resize>.
#2 - Introduce def_vector<T>
I.e., a convenience typedef, because typing the allocator is annoying:
using def_vector<T> = std::vector<T, gdb::default_init_allocator<T>>;
#3 - Introduce byte_vector
Because gdb_byte vectors will be the common thing, add a convenience
"byte_vector" typedef:
using byte_vector = def_vector<gdb_byte>;
which is really the same as:
std::vector<gdb_byte, gdb::default_init_allocator<gdb_byte>>;
The intent then is to make "gdb::byte_vector" be the go-to for dynamic
byte buffers. So the less friction, the better.
#4 - Adjust current code to use it.
To set the example going forward. Replace std::vector uses and also
unique_ptr<byte[]> uses.
One nice thing is that with this allocator, for changes like these:
-std::unique_ptr<byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[some_size]);
+gdb::byte_vector buf (some_size);
fill_with_data (buf.data (), buf.size ());
the generated code is the same as before. I.e., the compiler
de-structures the vector and gets rid of the unused "reserved vs size"
related fields.
The other nice thing is that it's easier to write
gdb::byte_vector buf (size);
than
std::unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
or even (C++14):
auto buf = std::make_unique<gdb_byte[]> (size); // zero-initializes...
#5 - Suggest s/std::vector<gdb_byte>/gdb::byte_vector/ going forward.
Note that this commit actually fixes a couple of bugs where the current
code is incorrectly using "std::vector::reserve(new_size)" and then
accessing the vector's internal buffer beyond the vector's size: see
dwarf2loc.c and charset.c. That's undefined behavior and may trigger
debug mode assertion failures. With default_init_allocator,
"resize()" behaves like "reserve()" performance wise, in that it
leaves new elements with unspecified values, but, it does that safely
without triggering undefined behavior when you access those values.

Since read_pieced_value and write_pieced_value share significant logic,
this patch merges them into a single function rw_pieced_value.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (rw_pieced_value): New. Merge logic from...
(read_pieced_value, write_pieced_value): ...here. Reduce to
wrappers that just call rw_pieced_value.
So far write_pieced_value uses write_memory when writing memory pieces to
the target. However, this is a case where GDB potentially overwrites a
watchpoint value. In such a case write_memory_with_notification should be
used instead, so that memory_changed observers get notified.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): When writing the data for a
memory piece, use write_memory_with_notification instead of
write_memory.
The function read_value_memory accepts a parameter embedded_offset and
expects it to represent the byte offset into the given value. However,
the only invocation with a possibly non-zero embedded_offset happens in
read_pieced_value, where a bit offset is passed instead.
Adjust the implementation of read_value_memory to meet the caller's
expectation. This implicitly fixes the invocation in read_pieced_value.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* valops.c (read_value_memory): Change embedded_offset to
represent a bit offset instead of a byte offset.
* value.h (read_value_memory): Adjust comment.
In read_pieced_value's main loop, the variables `dest_offset_bits' and
`source_offset_bits' are basically just copies of `offset' and
`bits_to_skip', respectively. In write_pieced_value the copies are
reversed. This is not very helpful when trying to keep the logic between
these functions in sync. Since the copies are unnecessary, this patch
just removes them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Remove unnecessary variables
dest_offset_bits and source_offset_bits.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
So far GDB ignores the piece offset of all kinds of DWARF bit
pieces (DW_OP_bit_piece) and treats such pieces as if the offset was zero.
This is fixed, and an appropriate test is added.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Respect the piece offset, as
given by DW_OP_bit_piece.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
Andreas Arnez <arnez@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.exp: Add test for composite location with
nonzero piece offsets.
So far the main loop in read_pieced_value and write_pieced_value is
structured like this:
(1) Prepare a buffer and some variables we may need;
(2) depending on the DWARF piece type to be handled, use the buffer and
the prepared variables, ignore them, or even recalculate them.
This approach reduces readability and may also lead to unnecessary copying
of data. This patch moves the preparations to the places where sufficient
information is available and removes some of the variables involved.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Move the buffer allocation and
some other preparations to the places where sufficient information
is available.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
For big-endian targets the logic in read/write_pieced_value tries to take
a register piece from the LSB end. This requires offsets and sizes to be
adjusted accordingly, and that's where the current implementation has some
issues:
* The formulas for recalculating the bit- and byte-offsets into the
register are wrong. They just happen to yield correct results if
everything is byte-aligned and the piece's last byte belongs to the
given value.
* After recalculating the bit offset into the register, the number of
bytes to be copied from the register is not recalculated. Of course
this does not matter if everything (particularly the piece size) is
byte-aligned.
These issues are fixed. The size calculation is performed with a new
helper function bits_to_bytes().
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (bits_to_bytes): New function.
(read_pieced_value): Fix offset calculations for register pieces
on big-endian targets.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.exp: Add test for non-byte-aligned
register pieces.
When the variable 'buffer_size' in read_pieced_value and
write_pieced_value was introduced, it was needed for tracking the buffer's
allocated size. Now that the buffer's data type has been changed to a
std::vector, the variable is no longer necessary; so remove it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Remove buffer_size variable.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
This verifies some of the previous fixes to the logic in
write_pieced_value when accessing bit-fields.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.exp: Add tests for accessing bit-fields
located in one or more DWARF pieces.
On big-endian targets, when targeting a bit-field, write_pieced_value
currently transfers the source value's *most* significant bits to the
target value, instead of its least significant bits. This is fixed.
In particular the fix adjusts the initial value of 'offset', which can now
potentially be nonzero. Thus the variable 'type_len' is renamed to
'max_offset', to avoid confusion. And for consistency, the affected logic
that was mirrored in read_pieced_value is changed there in the same way.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): When writing to a bit-field,
transfer the source value's least significant bits, instead of its
lowest-addressed ones. Rename type_len to max_offset.
(read_pieced_value): Mirror above changes to write_pieced_value as
applicable.
In write_pieced_value, when transferring the data to target memory via a
buffer, the bit offset within the target value is not reduced to its
sub-byte fraction before using it as a bit offset into the buffer. This
is fixed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): In DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY,
truncate full bytes from dest_offset_bits before using it as an
offset into the buffer.
In write_pieced_value, when checking whether the data can be transferred
byte-wise, the current logic verifies the source- and destination offsets
to be byte-aligned, but not the transfer size. This is fixed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): Include transfer size in
byte-wise check.
In write_pieced_value, the number of bytes containing a portion of the
bit-field in a given piece is calculated with the wrong starting offset;
thus the result may be off by one. This bug was probably introduced when
copying this logic from read_pieced_value. Fix it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): Fix copy/paste error in the
calculation of this_size.
In the case of targeting a bit-field, read_pieced_value and
write_pieced_value calculate the number of bits preceding the bit-field
without considering the relative offset of the value's parent. This is
relevant for a structure variable like this:
struct s {
uint64_t foo;
struct {
uint32_t bar;
uint32_t bf : 10; /* <-- target bit-field */
} baz;
} s;
In this scenario, if 'val' is a GDB value representing s.baz.bf,
val->parent represents the whole s.baz structure, and the following holds:
- value_offset (val) == sizeof s.baz.bar == 4
- value_offset (val->parent) == sizeof s.foo == 8
The current logic would only use value_offset(val), resulting in the wrong
offset into the target value. This is fixed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Respect parent value's offset
when targeting a bit-field.
(write_pieced_value): Likewise.
The test suite contains multiple instances of determining the target's
endianness with GDB's "show endian" command. This patch replaces these by
an invocation of a new convenience proc 'get_endianness'.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (get_endianness): New proc.

The addr_size field in the piece_closure data structure is a relic from
before introducing the typed DWARF stack. It is obsolete now. This patch
removes it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (struct piece_closure) <addr_size>: Remove field.
(allocate_piece_closure): Drop addr_size parameter.
(dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full): Adjust call to
allocate_piece_closure.
When taking a DW_OP_piece or DW_OP_bit_piece from a DW_OP_stack_value, the
existing logic always takes the piece from the lowest-addressed end, which
is wrong on big-endian targets. The DWARF standard states that the
"DW_OP_bit_piece operation describes a sequence of bits using the least
significant bits of that value", and this also matches the current logic
in GCC. For instance, the GCC guality test case pr54970.c fails on s390x
because of this.
This fix adjusts the piece accordingly on big-endian targets. It is
assumed that:
* DW_OP_piece shall take the piece from the LSB end as well;
* pieces reaching outside the stack value bits are considered undefined,
and a zero value can be used instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
PR gdb/21226
* dwarf2loc.c (read_pieced_value): Anchor stack value pieces at
the LSB end, independent of endianness.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
PR gdb/21226
* gdb.dwarf2/nonvar-access.exp: Add checks for verifying that
stack value pieces are taken from the LSB end.
A field f in a structure composed of DWARF pieces may be located in
multiple pieces, where the first and last of those may contain bits from
other fields as well. So when writing to f, the beginning of the first
and the end of the last of those pieces may have to be skipped. But the
logic in write_pieced_value for handling one of those pieces is flawed
when the first and last piece are the same, i.e., f is contained in a
single piece:
< - - - - - - - - - piece_size - - - - - - - - - ->
+-------------------------------------------------+
| skipped_bits | f_bits | / / / / / / / / / / |
+-------------------------------------------------+
The current logic determines the size of the sub-piece to operate on by
limiting the piece size to the bit size of f and then subtracting the
skipped bits:
min (piece_size, f_bits) - skipped_bits
Instead of:
min (piece_size - skipped_bits, f_bits)
So the resulting sub-piece size is corrupted, leading to wrong handling of
this piece in write_pieced_value.
Note that the same bug was already found in read_pieced_value and fixed
there (but not in write_pieced_value), see PR 15391.
This patch swaps the calculations, bringing them into the same (correct)
order as in read_pieced_value.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): Fix order of calculations for
size capping.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/var-pieces.exp: Add test case for modifying a
variable at nonzero offset.
This adds a test for read/write access to variables with various types of
DWARF locations. It uses register- and memory locations and composite
locations with register- and memory pieces.
Since the new test calls gdb_test_no_output with commands that contain
braces, it is necessary for string_to_regexp to quote braces as well.
This was not done before.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.c: New file.
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.exp: New test.
* lib/gdb-utils.exp (string_to_regexp): Quote braces as well.
All target descriptions except mips initialization are called in -tdep.c,
instead of -nat.c, so this patch moves mips target descriptions
initialization to -tdep.c. Secondly, I want to change the target
descriptions from pre-generated to dynamical creation, so I want to test
that these pre-generated target descriptions equal to these dynamically
created ones. Move target descriptions initialization to -tdep.c files so
we can test them in any hosts (if they are still -nat.c, we can only test
them on mips-linux host.).

There's no real reason for having mapped_symtab::data be a vector of
heap-allocated symtab_index_entries. symtab_index_entries is not that
large, it's movable, and it's cheap to move. Making the vector hold

to the heap.

link-based) was not found by gdb. It turns out that the debug file was
not named properly. It made me realize that it is quite difficult to
diagnose this kind of problems. This patch adds some debug output to
show where GDB looks for those files, so that it should be (more)
obvious to find what's wrong.
Here's an example of the result, first with an example of unsuccessful lookup,
and then a successful one.

The displaced_step_free_closure gdbarch hook allows architectures to
free data they might have allocated to complete a displaced step.
However, all architectures using that hook use the

does a simple xfree. We can remove it and do an xfree directly instead
of calling the hook.

Hi,
This is another obvious patch that fixes a thinko from my previous
startup-with-shell series. We should conditionally include <signal.h>
on gdb/gdbserver/fork-child.c because gdbserver will be putting the
inferior's terminal on the correct mode after the call to
fork_inferior, and for that it needs to ignore SIGTTOU.
This patch fixes a bunch of regressions happening on AArch64 that were
reported by Yao.

Hi,
This bug is related to:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-06/msg00216.html>
On stringify_argv, we have to check if args[0] is not NULL before
stringifying anything, otherwise we might do the wrong thing when
trimming the "ret" string in the end. args[0] will be NULL when no
arguments are passed to the inferior that will be started.
Checked in as obvious.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-08 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* common/common-utils.c (stringify_argv): Check for "arg[0] !=
NULL".
This patch implements the proper support for the "startup-with-shell"
feature on gdbserver. A new packet is added, QStartupWithShell, and
it is sent on initialization. If the host sends a
"QStartupWithShell:1", it means the inferior shall be started using a
shell. If the host sends a "QStartupWithShell:0", it means the
inferior shall be started without using a shell. Any other value is
considered an error.
There is no way to remotely set the shell that will be used by the
target to start the inferior. In order to do that, the user must
start gdbserver while providing a shell via the $SHELL environment
variable. The same is true for the host side.
The "set startup-with-shell" setting from the host side is used to
decide whether to start the remote inferior using a shell. This same
setting is also used to decide whether to use a shell to start the
host inferior; this means that it is not really possible to start the
inferior using different mechanisms on target and host.
A documentation patch is included, along with a new testcase for the
feature.

This is the most important (and the biggest, sorry) patch of the
series. It moves fork_inferior from gdb/fork-child.c to
nat/fork-inferior.c and makes all the necessary adjustments to both
GDB and gdbserver to make sure everything works OK.
There is no "most important change" with this patch; all changes are
made in a progressive way, making sure that gdbserver had the
necessary features while not breaking GDB at the same time.
I decided to go ahead and implement a partial support for starting the
inferior with a shell on gdbserver, although the full feature comes in
the next patch. The user won't have the option to disable the
startup-with-shell, and also won't be able to change which shell
gdbserver will use (other than setting the $SHELL environment
variable, that is).
Everything is working as expected, and no regressions were present
during the tests.

This commit moves a few bits responsible for dealing with inferior job
control from GDB to common/, which makes them available to gdbserver.
This is necessary for the upcoming patches that will share
fork_inferior et al between GDB and gdbserver.
We move some parts of gdb/terminal.h to gdb/common/common-terminal.h,
especifically the code that checks terminal features and that are used
to set job_control accordingly.
After sharing parts of gdb/terminal.h, we also to share the two
functions on gdb/inflow.c that are going to be needed by the
fork_inferior rework. They are 'gdb_setpgid' and the new
'have_job_control'. I've also taken the opportunity to give a more
meaningful name to "inflow.c" on common/. Now it is called
"job-control.c" (thanks Pedro for the suggestion).

Breakpoints are currently in a limbo state between C and C++. There is
a pseudo class hierarchy implemented using struct fields. Taking
watchpoint as an example:
struct watchpoint
{
/* The base class. */
struct breakpoint base;
...
}
and it is instantianted with "new watchpoint ()". When destroyed, a
destructor is first invoked through the breakpoint_ops, and then the
memory is freed by calling delete through a pointer to breakpoint.
Address sanitizer complains about this, for example, because we new and
delete the same memory using different types.
This patch takes the logical step of making breakpoint subclasses extend
the breakpoint class for real, and converts their destructors to actual
C++ destructors.
Regtested on the buildbot.

The longjmp kind of breakpoint has a destructor, but doesn't have an
associated structure. The next patch converts breakpoint destructors from
breakpoint_ops::dtor to actual destructors, but to do that it is needed
for longjmp_breakpoint to have a structure that will contain such
destructor. This patch adds it.
According to initialize_breakpoint_ops, a longjmp breakpoint derives
from "momentary breakpoints", so eventually a momentary_breakpoint
struct/class should probably be created. It's not necessary for the
destructor though, so a structure type for this abstract kind of
breakpoint can be added when we fully convert breakpoint ops into
methods of the breakpoint type hierarchy.
It is now necessary to instantiate different kinds of breakpoint objects
in set_raw_breakpoint_without_location based on bptype (sometimes a
breakpoint, sometimes a longjmp_breakpoint), so it now uses
new_breakpoint_from_type to do that. I also changed set_raw_breakpoint
to use it, even though I don't think that it can ever receive a bptype
that actually requires it. However, I think it's good if all breakpoint
object instantion is done in a single place.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (struct longjmp_breakpoint): New struct.
(is_tracepoint_type): Change return type to bool.
(is_longjmp_type): New function.
(new_breakpoint_from_type): Handle longjmp kinds of breakpoints.
(set_raw_breakpoint_without_location): Use
new_breakpoint_from_type.
(set_raw_breakpoint): Likewise.
This is a small preparatory patch to factor out a snippet that appears
twice. More kinds of breakpoints will need to be created based on
bptype, so I think it's a good idea to centralize the instantiation of
breakpoint objects.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (new_breakpoint_from_type): New function.
(create_breakpoint_sal): Use new_breakpoint_from_type and
unique_ptr.
(create_breakpoint): Likewise.
Rename "mem" related commands, so that their naming is consistent with
the <command-name>_command pattern of naming functions that implement
commands.

(mem_enable_command): Rename to ...
(enable_mem_command): ... this.
(mem_disable_command): Rename to ...

Newer versions of libipt support instruction flow decoder events instead of
indicating those events with flags in struct pt_insn. Add support for them in
GDB.

* btrace.c (handle_pt_insn_events): New.
(ftrace_add_pt): Call handle_pt_insn_events. Rename ERRCODE into
STATUS. Split into this and ...
(handle_pt_insn_event_flags): ... this.
Version 2 of libipt adds an event system to instruction flow decoders and
deprecates indicating events via flags in struct pt_insn. Add configuration
checks to determine which version we have.
gdb/
* configure.ac: Check for pt_insn_event, struct pt_insn.enabled,
and struct pt_insn.resynced.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.in: Regenerated.
This used to hold a pair of pointers to the previous and next function segment
that belong to this function call. Replace with a pair of indices into the
vector of function segments.
This used to hold a pair of pointers to the previous and next function segment
in execution flow order. It is no longer necessary as the previous and next
function segments now are simply the previous and next elements in the vector
of function segments.
These are no longer needed and might hold invalid addresses once we change the
vector of function segment pointers into a vector of function segment objects
where a reallocation of the vector changes the address of its elements.
Directly insert new btrace_function pointers into the vector and have the
vector own these pointers. This allows us to later retrieve these objects by
their number directly after creation whereas at the moment we have to wait
until the vector is fully populated.
This requires to pull btrace_thread_info through different functions but
cleans up the code for freeing the trace.
Change the GDB 8.0 section of the NEWS file to try to follow this order:
* Functional changes
* Added and removed configurations and targets
* New commands
* New options
* MI changes
In particular, there were two "New commands" sections.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS (Changes in GDB 8.0): Remove extra empty line. Move
"Removed targets and native configurations" up. Merge duplicate
"New commands" sub-sections. Add "New options" sub-sections.
This test requires calling a function in the inferior, and therefore it
doesn't make sense to run it if the target doesn't support calling
functions from GDB.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/watch-cond-infcall.exp: Don't run if target doesn't
support function calls from GDB.

* regcache.h: (regcache::raw_supply_integer): New declaration.
(regcache::raw_collect_integer): Likewise.
This patch adds one unit test for gdbarch methods register_to_value and
value_to_register. The test pass different combinations of {regnu, type}
to gdbarch_register_to_value and gdbarch_value_to_register. In order
to do the test, add a new function create_new_frame to create a fake
frame. It can be improved after we converted frame_info to class.
In order to isolate regcache (from target_ops operations on writing
registers, like target_store_registers), the sub-class of regcache in the
test override raw_write. Also, in order to get the right regcache from
get_thread_arch_aspace_regcache, the sub-class of regcache inserts itself
to current_regcache.
