Currently, linker will define __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols
only for orphaned sections.
However, during garbage collection, ELF linker marks all sections with
references to __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols as used even
when section SECNAME isn't an orphaned section and linker won't define
__start_SECNAME nor __stop_SECNAME. And ELF linker stores the first
input section whose name matches __start_SECNAME or __stop_SECNAME in
u.undef.section for garbage collection. If these symbols are provided
in linker script, u.undef.section is set to the section where they will
defined by linker script, which leads to the incorrect output.
This patch changes linker to always define referenced __start_SECNAME and
__stop_SECNAME if the input section name is the same as the output section
name, which is always true for orphaned sections, and SECNAME is a C
identifier. Also __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols are marked
as hidden by ELF linker so that __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols
for section SECNAME in different modules are unique. For garbage
collection, ELF linker stores the first matched input section in the
unused vtable field.

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'.

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.

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.

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.

done.
Note: here, the debug link happens to be named like the build-id, but it
doesn't have to be this way. It puzzled me for a minute.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS (Changes since GDB 8.0): Announce {set,show} debug
separate-debug-file commands.
* symfile.h (separate_debug_file_debug): New global.
* symfile.c (separate_debug_file_debug): New global.
(separate_debug_file_exists, find_separate_debug_file): Add
debug output.
(_initialize_symfile): Add "set debug separate-debug-file"
command.
* build-id.c (build_id_to_debug_bfd,
find_separate_debug_file_by_buildid): Add debug output.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Optional Messages about Internal Happenings):
Document {set,show} debug separate-debug-file commands.
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
simple_displaced_step_free_closure provided in arch-utils.{c,h}, which
does a simple xfree. We can remove it and do an xfree directly instead
of calling the hook.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.sh (displaced_step_free_closure): Remove.
* gdbarch.h, gdbarch.c: Re-generate.
* aarch64-linux-tdep.c (aarch64_linux_init_abi): Don't set
displaced_step_free_closure.
* amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_init_abi_common): Likewise.
* arm-linux-tdep.c (arm_linux_init_abi): Likewise.
* i386-linux-tdep.c (i386_linux_init_abi): Likewise.
* rs6000-aix-tdep.c (rs6000_aix_init_osabi): Likewise.
* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_gdbarch_init): Likewise.
* s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_gdbarch_init): Likewise.
* arch-utils.h (simple_displaced_step_free_closure): Remove.
* arch-utils.c (simple_displaced_step_free_closure): Remove.
* infrun.c (displaced_step_clear): Call xfree instead of
gdbarch_displaced_step_free_closure.
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.

* fork-child.c: Conditionally include <signal.h>.
