I'm going to add an alternate mechanism of breakpoint trap
identification to 'check_stopped_by_breakpoint' that does not rely on
checking the instruction at PC. The mechanism currently used to tell
whether we're stepping over a permanent breakpoint doesn't fit in that
new method. This patch redoes the whole logic in a different way that
works with both old and new methods, in essence moving the "stepped
permanent breakpoint" detection "one level up". It makes lower level
check_stopped_by_breakpoint always the adjust the PC, and then has
linux_wait_1 advance the PC past the breakpoint if necessary. This
ends up being better also because this now handles
non-decr_pc_after_break targets too. Before, such targets would get
stuck forever reexecuting the breakpoint instruction.

Because delete_breakpoints uses gdb_expect directly, an internal error

We need to be careful with parsing optional stop reasons that start
with an hex character ("awatch", "core"), as GDBs that aren't aware of
them parse them as real numbers. That's silly of course, given that
there should be a colon after those magic "numbers". So if strtol on
"abbz:" doesn't return "first invalid char" pointing to the colon, we
know that "abbz" isn't really a register number. It must be optional
stop info we don't know about. This adjusts GDB to work that way,
removing the need for the special casing done upfront:
/* If this packet is an awatch packet, don't parse the 'a'
as a register number. */
if (strncmp (p, "awatch", strlen("awatch")) != 0
&& strncmp (p, "core", strlen ("core") != 0))
For as long as we care about compatibility with GDB 7.9, we'll need to
continue to be careful about this, so I added a comment.

That was waitpid returning -1 / EINTR. We don't see that when testing

debugging a 32-bit inferior, a 64-bit GDBserver is reading/writing
$orig_eax from/to the wrong ptrace register buffer offset. When
gdbserver is 64-bit, the ptrace register buffer is in 64-bit layout,
so the register is found at "ORIG_EAX * 8", not at "ORIG_EAX * 4".

Currently, non-stop must be enabled before connecting.

TL;DR - GDB can hang if something refreshes the thread list out of the
target while the target is running. GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter.
The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore.
Long version:
Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is
still exposing latent non-stop bugs.
I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when
we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each
time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all
threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting
in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list
refreshes while some threads in the target are running.
The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue,
based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a
breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was
doing when testing multi-create.exp.
The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test
to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop,
it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me.
The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is
libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the
inferior.
Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target,
libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a
cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop.
The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in
glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are
simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are
embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer
of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel
"head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists;
thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both
simultaneously.
So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are
threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads.
Before:
stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> (&stack_cache)
After:
stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache)
td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and
iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the
list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to
stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache
list is empty.
For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread
object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next"
pointer.
In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating
thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread
C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list.
Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and
there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy
of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread
C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already
exited, and is now in the stack cache list.
After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which
because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another
thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck
in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread
in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the
terminating condition).
Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection
to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips
calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible
that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to
break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than
once.
Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need
td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE.
We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating
(thread_from_lwp), so use that more.

WNOHANG)' returns 0. In that case, we're currently adding the LWP to
the stopped_pids list, which results in linux_handle_extended_wait
skipping the waitpid call on the child, and thus confusing things
later on when the child eventually reports the stop.
Then, the tail end of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
last_resume_kind of the LWP to resume_stop, which is wrong given that
the user may be doing "info threads" while some threads are running.
And then, the else branch of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
stopped flag of the LWP. This branch is reached if the LWP is the
main LWP, which may well be running at this point (to it's wrong to
set its 'stopped' flag).
AFAICS, there's no reason anymore for special-casing the main/leader
LWP here:
- For the "attach" case, linux_nat_attach already adds the main LWP to
the lwp list, and sets its 'stopped' flag.
- For the "run" case, after linux_nat_create_inferior, end up in
linux_nat_wait_1 here:
/* The first time we get here after starting a new inferior, we may
not have added it to the LWP list yet - this is the earliest
moment at which we know its PID. */
if (ptid_is_pid (inferior_ptid))
{
/* Upgrade the main thread's ptid. */
thread_change_ptid (inferior_ptid,
ptid_build (ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid),
ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid), 0));
lp = add_initial_lwp (inferior_ptid);
lp->resumed = 1;
}
... which adds the LWP to the LWP list already, before
lin_lwp_attach_lwp can ever be reached.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-02-20 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-nat.c (lin_lwp_attach_lwp): No longer special case the
main LWP. Handle the case of waitpid returning 0 if we're already
attached to the LWP. Don't set the LWP's last_resume_kind to
resume_stop if we already knew about the LWP.
(linux_nat_filter_event): Add debug logs.
The definition was removed a year ago, but the declaration managed to
stay behind.

Another fix I'm working made schedlock.exp fail with gdbserver
frequently. Looking deeper, it turns out to be a pre-existing bug.
status_pending_p_callback is filtering out LWPs incorrectly. The
result is that that sometimes status_pending_p_callback returns a
pending event for an LWP that isn't expected, and then GDBserver gets
very confused.
E.g,. when doing a step-over, linux_wait_for_event is called with a
particular LWP's ptid, meaning events for all other LWPs should be
left pending, but here we see it retuning an event for some other LWP:
linux_wait_1: [<all threads>]
step_over_bkpt set [LWP 29577.29577], doing a blocking wait <--------
my_waitpid (-1, 0x40000001)

You can't do that when your target is `exec'
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.trace/no-attach-trace.exp: tstart
Even though this target supports tracing, the test restarts GDB and
doesn't do gdb_run_cmd so does not reconnect to the remote target. So
at that point, GDB only has the "exec" target, which obviously doesn't
do tracing.
The test is about doing "tstart" before running a program, so the fix
is to do gdb_target_supports_trace with whatever target GDB ends up
connected after clean_restart.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native, native-gdbserver and
native-extended-gdbserver boards. The test passes with the latter,
and is skipped with the first two.

On GNU/Linux, if a pthreaded program has a thread call clone(CLONE_VM)
directly, and then that clone LWP hits a debug event (breakpoint,
etc.) GDB internal errors. Threaded programs shouldn't really be
calling clone directly, but GDB shouldn't crash either.
The crash looks like this:
(gdb) break clone_fn
Breakpoint 2 at 0x4007d8: file clone-thread_db.c, line 35.
(gdb) r

[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1030: internal-error: lin_lwp_attach_lwp: Assertion `lwpid > 0' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
The problem is that 'clone' ends up clearing the parent thread's tid
field in glibc's thread data structure. For x86_64, the glibc code in
question is here:
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:
...
testq $CLONE_THREAD, %rdi
jne 1f
testq $CLONE_VM, %rdi
movl $-1, %eax <----
jne 2f
movl $SYS_ify(getpid), %eax
syscall
2: movl %eax, %fs:PID
movl %eax, %fs:TID <----
1:
When GDB refreshes the thread list out of libthread_db, it finds a
thread with LWP with pid -1 (the clone's parent), which naturally
isn't yet on the thread list. GDB then tries to attach to that bogus
LWP id, which is caught by that assertion.
The fix is to detect the bad PID early.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20. GDBserver doesn't need any fix.
