Fix a regression from commit f8b73d13b7 ("Target-described register
support for MIPS"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-05/msg00340.html>,
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-06/msg00256.html>, which
caused Floating Point Control Registers (FCRs) to be shown as 64-bit
with 64-bit targets.
This came from the legacy register format where all raw registers
matched the width of the architecture regardless of their actual size.
The correct size was then set in `mips_register_type' for cooked
registers presented to the user, which in the case of FCRs meant the
cooked size was always forced to 32 bits, reflecting their actual
hardware size, even though the raw format carried them in 64-bit
quantities on 64-bit targets. The upper 32 bits carried in the raw FCR
format have always been don't-cares, not actually retrieved from
hardware and never written back.
With the introduction of XML register descriptions the layout of
previously defined raw registers has been preserved, so as to keep
existing register handling code unchanged and make it easier for GDB and
`gdbserver' to interact with each other whether neither, either or both
parties talking over RSP support XML register descriptions. For the
XML-described case however `mips_register_type' is not used in raw to
cooked register conversion, so any special cases coded there are not
taken into account.
Instead a new function, `mips_pseudo_register_type', has been introduced
to handle size conversion, however lacking the special case for FCRs for
the Linux and the now defunct IRIX target. The correct size has been
maintained for embedded targets however, due to the bundling of FCRs
with the embedded registers under the `rawnum >= MIPS_EMBED_FP0_REGNUM +
32' condition.
Add the missing case to `mips_pseudo_register_type' then, referring to
the FCR indices explicitly, and observing that between
`MIPS_EMBED_FP0_REGNUM + 32' and `MIPS_FIRST_EMBED_REGNUM' there is an
unused register slot whose contents are ignored so with the removal of
embedded FCRs from under that condition we don't have to care about it
and we can refer to the embedded registers starting from
MIPS_FIRST_EMBED_REGNUM instead.
Add a test case too so that we have means to check automatically that
the correct user-visible size of FCRs is maintained.

This is GDB trying to print the location spec of the JIT event
breakpoint, but that's an internal breakpoint without one.
If I add a NULL check, then we see that the JIT breakpoint is now
pending (because its location has shlib_disabled set):
(gdb) maint info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
[...]
-8 jit events keep y <PENDING> inf 1
[...]
But that's incorrect. GDB should have managed to recreate the JIT
breakpoint's location for the second run. So the problem is
elsewhere.
The problem is that if the JIT loads at the same address on the second
run, we never recreate the JIT breakpoint, because we hit this early
return:
static int
jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
struct jit_program_space_data *ps_data)
{
[...]
if (ps_data->cached_code_address == addr)
return 0;
[...]
delete_breakpoint (ps_data->jit_breakpoint);
[...]
ps_data->jit_breakpoint = create_jit_event_breakpoint (gdbarch, addr);
Fix this by deleting the breakpoint and discarding the cached code
address when the objfile where the previous JIT breakpoint was found
is deleted/unloaded in the first place.
The test that was originally added for PR11094 doesn't trip on this
because:
#1 - It doesn't test the case of the JIT descriptor's address _not_
changing between reruns.
#2 - And then it doesn't do "maint info breakpoints", or really
anything with the JIT at all.
#3 - and even then, to trigger the problem the JIT descriptor needs
to be in a separate library, while the current test puts it in
the main program.
The patch extends the test to cover all combinations of these
scenarios.

I noticed that we sometimes get this:
(gdb) print &__jit_debug_descriptor
$1 = (struct jit_descriptor *) 0x601040 <__jit_debug_descriptor>
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/jit-simple.exp: blah 1
[...]
(gdb) run
[...]

36 return 0;
(gdb) print &__jit_debug_descriptor
$2 = (struct jit_descriptor *) 0x601040 <__jit_debug_descriptor>
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/jit-simple.exp: blah 1
All tests PASSed, but note the "Unsupported JIT protocol version 4"
message.
Also notice that "__jit_debug_descriptor" has the same address before
and after the rerun, while the test is built in a way that should make
that address change between runs.
The test doesn't catch any of this because it doesn't compare
before/after addresses.
And then notice the "blah 1" test messages. "blah" is clearly a WIP
message, but it should be at least "blah 2" the second time. :-)
The reason this sometimes happens is that the test recompiles the
program and expects gdb to reload it automaticallyt on "run". However,
if the original program and the new recompilation happen to be in the
same second, then gdb does not realize that the binary needs to be
reloaded. (This is an old problem out of scope of this series.) If
that happens, then GDB ends up using the wrong symbols for the program
that it spawns, reads the JIT descriptor out of the wrong address,
finds garbage, and prints that "unsupported version" notice.
Fix that in the same way gdb.base/reread.exp handles it -- by sleeping
one second before recompiling.

The .exp patch is an obvious typo fix I think. The regex was written to
accept "ADDR in main" and I find it OK as checking .debug_line validity is not
the purpose of this testfile.
gcc-4.8.5-11.el7.x86_64 did not put the 'mov $0x0,%eax' instruction there at
all so there was no problem with .debug_line.

In DWARF expression handling, some operators are required to be either
at the end of an expression or followed by a composition operator. So
far only the operators DW_OP_reg0-31 were allowed to be followed by
DW_OP_GNU_uninit instead, and particularly DW_OP_regx was not, which is
obviously inconsistent.
This patch allows DW_OP_GNU_uninit after all operators requiring a
composition, to simplify the code and make it more consistent. This
policy may be more permissive than necessary, but in the worst case just
leads to a DWARF location description resulting in an uninitialized
value instead of an error message.

think that removing it is preferable.

This patch adds a test to verify that events are sent properly to all
UIs when the user selection context (inferior, thread, frame) changes.
The goal of the C test file is to provide two threads that are stopped with the
same predictable backtrace (so that we can test frame switching). The barrier
helps us know when the child threads are started. Then, scheduler-locking is
used to bring each thread one by one to the position we expect them to be
during the test.

* gdb.mi/user-selected-context-sync.exp: New file.
* gdb.mi/user-selected-context-sync.c: New file.
With this patch, when an inferior, thread or frame is explicitly
selected by the user, notifications will appear on all CLI and MI UIs.
When a GDB console is integrated in a front-end, this allows the
front-end to follow a selection made by the user ont he CLI, and it
informs the user about selection changes made behind the scenes by the
front-end.
This patch addresses PR gdb/20487.
In order to communicate frame changes to the front-end, this patch adds
a new field to the =thread-selected event for the selected frame. The
idea is that since inferior/thread/frame can be seen as a composition,
it makes sense to send them together in the same event. The vision
would be to eventually send the inferior information as well, if we find
that it's needed, although the "=thread-selected" event would be
ill-named for that job.
Front-ends need to handle this new field if they want to follow the
frame selection changes that originate from the console. The format of
the frame attribute is the same as what is found in the *stopped events.
Here's a detailed example for each command and the events they generate:
thread
------
1. CLI command:
thread 1.3
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={...}
2. MI command:
-thread-select 3
CLI event:
[Switching to thread 1.3 ...]
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
thread 1.3
MI event/reply:
&"thread 1.3\n"
~"#0 child_sub_function () ...
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="0",...}
^done
frame
-----
1. CLI command:
frame 1
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1",...}
2. MI command:
-stack-select-frame 1
CLI event:
#1 0x00000000004007f0 in child_function...
3. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
frame 1
MI event/reply:
&"frame 1\n"
~"#1 0x00000000004007f9 in ..."
=thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1"...}
^done
inferior
--------
Inferior selection events only go from the console to MI, since there's
no way to select the inferior in pure MI.
1. CLI command:
inferior 2
MI event:
=thread-selected,id="3"
Note that if the user selects an inferior that is not started or exited,
the MI doesn't receive a notification. Since there is no threads to
select, the =thread-selected event does not apply...
2. MI command (CLI-in-MI):
inferior 2
MI event/reply:
&"inferior 2\n"
~"[Switching to inferior 2 ...]"
=thread-selected,id="4",frame={level="0"...}
^done
Internal implementation detail: this patch makes it possible to suppress
notifications caused by a CLI command, like what is done in mi-interp.c.
This means that it's now possible to use the
add_com_suppress_notification function to register a command with some
event suppressed. It is used to implement the select-frame command in
this patch.
The function command_notifies_uscc_observer was added to extract
the rather complicated logical expression from the if statement. It is
also now clearer what that logic does: if the command used by the user
already notifies the user_selected_context_changed observer, there is
not need to notify it again. It therefore protects again emitting the
event twice.
No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 x86 with target boards unix and

jit_breakpoint_re_set() is specific by trying to insert a breakpoint into the
main executable, not into a shared library. During attachment GDB thinks it
needs to use 'breakpoint always-inserted' from
breakpoints_should_be_inserted_now() as a newly attached thread is
'thread_info->executing' due to 'lwp_info->must_set_ptrace_flags' enabled and
the task not yet stopped. This did not happen before the 'bad commit' above
which adds tracking of such thread.
GDB then fails to insert the breakpoints to invalid address as PIE executable
gets properly relocated during later phase of attachment. One can see in the
backtraces below:
-> jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal()
later:
-> svr4_exec_displacement()
One can suppress the initial breakpoint_re_set() call as there will be another
breakpoint_re_set() done from the final post_create_inferior() call in
setup_inferior().
BTW additionally 'threads_executing' cache bool is somehow stale (somewhere is
missing update_threads_executing()). I was trying to deal with that in my
first/second attempt below but in my final third attempt (attached) I have
left it as it is.
First attempt trying not to falsely require 'breakpoint always-inserted':
https://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/rhbz1375553-fix1.patch
Reduced first attempt:
https://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/rhbz1375553-fix2.patch
The third attempt suppresses breakpoint insertion until PIE executable gets
relocated by svr4_exec_displacement(). Applied.

If you run an infcall from the command line, and immediately after run
some other command, GDB incorrectly processes the other command before
the infcall finishes.
The problem is that the fix for PR gdb/20418 (Problems with

I was reading the gdb RSP manual recently and I found a number of
small problems in the documentation. This patch attempts to improve
these areas. Specfically:
* The term "memory breakpoint" is used only in this section of the
manual, and there inconsistently. I found this term confusing --
initially I thought it might be a watchpoint. This patch changes it
to use the term "software breakpoint", which is used in the rest of
the manual.
* The z0 packet didn't document how "kind" was written. And, it had a
stray link to the architecture-specific protocol details node. This
patch moves this link to a better spot.
* The z1 patch didn't document that it accepts cmd_list.
* I couldn't find any text saying what response is given to a command
like vCont in non-stop mode. The answer is that OK is sent, and
then a stop reply is sent as a notification. This patch adds a note
about this.
* The "create" stop reply did not document that the "R" argument is
ignored.
* The "W", "X", and "w" packets did not document how the "AA" part is
formatted.
* The %Stop notification example said "%%Stop", but I think this is
incorrect.

If xmalloc fails allocating memory, usually because something tried a
huge allocation, like xmalloc(-1) or some such, GDB asks the user what
to do:
.../src/gdb/utils.c:1079: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
If the user says "n", that throws a QUIT exception, which is caught by
one of the multiple CATCH(RETURN_MASK_ALL) blocks somewhere up the
stack.
The default implementations of operator new / operator new[] call
malloc directly, and on memory allocation failure throw
std::bad_alloc. Currently, if that happens, since nothing catches it,
the exception escapes out of main, and GDB aborts from unhandled
exception.
This patch replaces the default operator new variants with versions
that, just like xmalloc:
#1 - Raise an internal-error on memory allocation failure.
#2 - Throw a QUIT gdb_exception, so that the exact same CATCH blocks
continue handling memory allocation problems.
A minor complication of #2 is that operator new can _only_ throw
std::bad_alloc, or something that extends it:
void* operator new (std::size_t size) throw (std::bad_alloc);
That means that if we let a gdb QUIT exception escape from within
operator new, the C++ runtime aborts due to unexpected exception
thrown.
So to bridge the gap, this patch adds a new gdb_quit_bad_alloc
exception type that inherits both std::bad_alloc and gdb_exception,
and throws _that_.
If we decide that we should be catching memory allocation errors in
fewer places than all the places we currently catch them (everywhere
we use RETURN_MASK_ALL currently), then we could change operator new
to throw plain std::bad_alloc then. But I'm considering such a change
as separate matter from this one -- it'd make sense to do the same to
xmalloc at the same time, for instance.
Meanwhile, this allows using new/new[] instead of xmalloc/XNEW/etc.
without losing the "virtual memory exhausted" internal-error
safeguard.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23.

In commit 6423214f (testsuite: Don't use expect_background to reap
gdbserver), we override gdb_exit in lib/gdbserver-support.exp, so
that we can close gdbserver first. However, we don't close gdbserver
in mi_gdb_exit. This makes a problem in my aarch64 mulit-arch testing,
in which I run some mi tests, mi-watch.exp for example, in different
variations (aarch64 and arm),
Schedule of variations:
junor0-2
junor0-2-arm/-marm
junor0-2-arm/-mthumb
When the test is done in the first variation (aarch64), test case is
recompiled for arm, but GDBserver with aarch64 program is still
running. When the second variation is started, GDB loads arm program,
but GDBserver still loads aarch64 program because the old GDBserver
process is using it. We'll get,
47-target-select remote junor0-2:2350^M

This is an initial patch that doesn't yet support some of the features, that
are already available in Synopsys' fork of GDB, namely:
* longjmp support
* signal frame handling
* prologue analysis
* Linux targets support
* native Linux support
ARC cores are configurable and extensible, which means from debugger
perspective that some registers and debug capabilities are optional, therefore
it is up to the GDB stub to determine exact list of register available on
target and supply it to GDB via XML target descriptions. List of registers
that is known to GDB and is required is intentionally kept small to simplify
requirements to GDB stub and implementation of a GDB client.

This fixes PR gdb/20604. The bug here is that passing an invalid
expression to "quit" -- e.g., "quit()" -- causes gdb to enter a
non-functioning state.
The immediate problem is that quit_force resets the terminal before
evaluating the expression. However, it seemed to me that it doesn't
really make sense to pass the quit_force argument to kill_or_detach
(which passes it to to_detach), first because conflating the exit
status for "quit" and the signal to pass when detaching doesn't make
sense, and second because to_detach implementations generally only
accept a constant here, while "quit" accepts an expression. So, I
removed that.
As an aside, I think the "detach SIGNO" functionality is not
documented.

There are still a bunch of "stamp" files that are not ignored, but I
think the rule for them should be put in the top-level gitignore.
