When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 5:
Rename .texinfo files to .texi.
Problem 6:
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 6:
Remove the hack at the bottom of doc/Makefile.am and use
the info-in-builddir automake option.
Problem 7:
doc/Makefile.am:35: error: required file '../texinfo.tex' not found
doc/Makefile.am:35: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'texinfo.tex'
Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.
Problem 9:

This is the previously mentioned patch to get rid of
unstructured/ioctl-based procfs support in procfs.c. Given that support
for structured procfs was introduced in Solaris 2.6 back in 1997 and
we're just removing support for Solaris < 10, there's no point in
carrying that baggage (and tons of support for IRIX and OSF/1 as well)
around any longer.
Most of the patch should be straightforward (removing support for
!NEW_PROC_API, non-Solaris OSes and pre-Solaris 10 quirks).
Only a few points need explanations:
* <sys/syscall.h> was already included unconditionally in most places,
so there's no need to have guards in a few remaining ones.
* configure.host already obsoletes i?86-*-sysv4.2, i?86-*-sysv5, so
NEW_PROC_API detection for those in configure.ac can go.
* I'm still including <sys/procfs.h> with #define _STRUCTURED_PROC 1.
Theoretically, it would be better to include <procfs.h> on Solaris
(which includes that define), but that breaks the build over
<procfs.h> vs. gdb's "procfs.h", and doesn't exist on Linux.
* I've regenerated syscall_table[] in proc-events.c with a small script
from Solaris 10, 11.3, 11.4 <sys/syscall.h>, so there should be no
traces of older Solaris versions and other OSes left.
* prsysent_t and DYNAMIC_SYSCALLS was only used for AIX 5, but AIX
doesn't use procfs.c any longer, so all related code can go.
The patch was generated with diff -w so one can easier see changes
without being distracted by simple reindentations.
So far, it has only been compiled and smoke-tested on
amd64-pc-solaris2.1[01], sparcv9-sun-solaris2.1[01], and
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. Certainly needs more testing (Solaris 11.3
vs. 11.4, 32-bit gdb, testsuite once I've figured out what's wrong on
Solaris 10 etc.), but it's enough to get a first impression how much
cleanup is possible here.

Use AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX to detect if the compiler supports C++11,
and if -std=xxx switches are necessary to enable C++11.
We need to tweak AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX a bit though. Pristine
upstream AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX appends -std=gnu++11 to CXX directly.
That doesn't work for us, because the top level Makefile passes CXX
down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX
to. The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/
directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make
invocation at the top level would not.
So instead of having AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX set CXX directly, tweak it
to AC_SUBST a separate variable -- CXX_DIALECT -- and use '$(CXX)
(CXX_DIALECT)' to compile/link.
Confirmed that this enables C++11 starting with gcc 4.8, the first gcc
release with full C++11 support.
Also confirmed that configure errors out gracefully with older GCC
releases:

If we need to revert back to making C++11 optional, all that's
necessary is to change the "mandatory" to "optional" in configure.ac
and regenerate configure (both gdb and gdbserver).

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.

Building in C++ mode issues ~40 warnings like this:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c: In function ‘int linux_handle_extended_wait(lwp_info*, int, int)’:
../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:2016:51: warning: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘__ptrace_request’ [-fpermissive]
ptrace (PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, pid, 0, &new_pid);
The issue is that in glibc, ptrace's first parameter is an enum.
That's not a problem if we pick the PTRACE_XXX requests from
sys/ptrace.h, as those will be values of the corresponding enum.
However, we have fallback definitions for PTRACE_XXX symbols when the
system headers miss them (such as PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG above), and those
are plain integer constants. E.g., nat/linux-ptrace.h:
#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
One idea would be to fix this by defining those fallbacks like:
-#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG 0x4201
+#define PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG ((enum __ptrace_request) 0x4201)
However, while glibc's ptrace uses enum __ptrace_request for first
parameter:
extern long int ptrace (enum __ptrace_request __request, ...) __THROW;
other libc's, like e.g., Android's bionic do not -- in that case, the
first parameter is int:
long ptrace(int request, pid_t pid, void * addr, void * data);
So the fix I came up is to make configure/ptrace.m4 also detect the
type of the ptrace's first parameter and defin PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1, as
already does the for parameters 3-4, and then simply wrap ptrace with
a macro that casts the first argument to the detected type. (I'm
leaving adding a nicer wrapper for when we drop building in C).
While this adds the wrapper, GNU/Linux files won't use it until the
next patch, which makes all native GNU/Linux files include
gdb_ptrace.h.

The following patch...
| proc-service, extern "C"

| libthread_db.so calls symbols in the client (GDB), through the

... added a number of declarations which do not compile when cross-
compiling GDBserver on arm-android. The problem comes from type
prfpregset_t not being declared:
/[...]/gdbserver/gdb_proc_service.h:98:47:
error: unknown type name 'prfpregset_t'
After searching through the includes of the install we have,
I could not find that type being declared anywhere. So I did
the same as for prgregset_t, and created the typedef if the
type isn't declared.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Add prfpregset_t BFD_HAVE_SYS_PROCFS_TYPE check.
* configure, config.in: Regenerate.

Converting GDB to be a C++ program, I stumbled on 'basename' issues,
like:
src/gdb/../include/ansidecl.h:169:64: error: new declaration ‘char* basename(const char*)’
/usr/include/string.h:597:26: error: ambiguates old declaration ‘const char* basename(const char*)’
which I believe led to this bit in gold's configure.ac:
dnl We have to check these in C, not C++, because autoconf generates
dnl tests which have no type information, and current glibc provides
dnl multiple declarations of functions like basename when compiling
dnl with C++.
AC_CHECK_DECLS([basename, ffs, asprintf, vasprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strverscmp])
These checks IIUC intend to generate all the HAVE_DECL_FOO symbols
that libiberty.h and ansidecl.h check.
GDB is missing these checks currently, which results in the conflict
shown above.
This adds an m4 file that both GDB and GDBserver's configury use to
pull in the autoconf checks that libiberty clients needs done in order
to use these libiberty.h/ansidecl.h.

This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBServer to detect 64-bit inferior
correctly. We find a problem that GDBServer is unable to detect on a
e5500 core processor. Current GDBServer assumes that MSR is a 64-bit
register, but MSR is a 32-bit register in Book III-E. This patch is
to fix this problem by checking the right bit in MSR, in order to handle
both Book III-S and Book III-E. In order to detect Book III-S and
Book III-E, we check the PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE from the host's HWCAP (by
getauxval on glibc >= 2.16. If getauxval doesn't exist, we implement
the fallback by parsing /proc/self/auxv), because it should an invariant
on the same machine cross different processes.
In order to share code, I add nat/ppc-linux.c for both GDB and
GDBserver side.

It has bothered me for a while that files in common/ use macros
defined via autoconf checks, but rely on each configure.ac doing the
proper checks independently.
This patch introduces common/common.m4 which consolidates the checks
assumed by code in common.
The rule I propose is that if something is needed or used by common,
it should be checked for by common.m4. However, if the check is also
needed by gdb or gdbserver, then it should be duplicated there.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18 (though this is hardly the
most strenuous case) and using the Fedora 18 mingw cross compilers. I
also examined the config.in diffs to ensure that symbols did not go
missing.

It is possible to have a build of glibc where SYS_perf_event_open is not
defined (because when the glibc was compiled, the syscall did not exist),
but have newer kernel headers installed so that linux/perf_event.h is
available. In this setup, you get a build failure:
./common/linux-btrace.c: In function 'kernel_supports_btrace':
./common/linux-btrace.c:316:23: error: 'SYS_perf_event_open' undeclared (first use in this function)
Update the ifdef check to also see if the syscall is available.
