common/common.m4 still had checks for termio.h/sgtty.h that are stale
now. Remove them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-11-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/common.m4 (GDB_AC_COMMON): No longer check termio.h nor
sgtty.h.
* config.in, configure: Regenerate.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-11-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* config.in, configure: Regenerate.
Replace it with for_each_thread. While at it, we can inline the
callback code. One little change is that I am using the
prev_general_thread variable instead of current_gen_ptid, since they
should have the same value.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* target.c (struct thread_search): Remove.
(thread_search_callback): Remove.
(prepare_to_access_memory): Use for_each_thread instead of
find_inferior. Inline code from thread_search_callback.
Change find_inferior with find_thread. Since we can now pass arguments
directly instead of through a void pointer, we don't need the
visit_actioned_threads_data structure anymore.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (struct visit_actioned_threads_data): Remove.
(visit_actioned_threads): Change prototype to take arguments
directly.
(resume): Use find_thread instead of find_inferior.
Replace one with find_thread, the other with for_each_thread.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (queue_stop_reply_callback): Change prototype, return
void.
(find_status_pending_thread_callback): Remove.
(handle_status): Replace find_inferior with find_thread and
for_each_thread.
It happens often that we want to iterate or find threads restricted to a
given pid. I think it's worth having an overload to help with this.
Right now there is a single user of each of the find_thread and
for_each_thread overload, but as we replace the usages of find_inferior
with for_each_thread/find_thread, more usages will pop up.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* gdbthread.h (find_thread, for_each_thread): New functions.
* inferiors.c (thread_of_pid): Remove.
(find_any_thread_of_pid): Use find_thread.
* linux-low.c (num_lwps): Use for_each_thread.
gdb/gdbserver:
2017-10-17 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* configure.srv: Rename arm-linux.o with arch/arm-linux.o.
Rename arm-get-next-pcs.o with arch/arm-get-next-pcs.o.
Similar to f38307f5 (Replicate src dir in build dir), this patch change
configure and Makefile to generate object files in arch/ directory.
gdb/gdbserver:
2017-10-17 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* Makefile.in (CONFIG_SRC_SUBDIR): New variable.
(clean): Remove .o files in CONFIG_SRC_SUBDIR.
(distclean): Remove DEPDIR in CONFIG_SRC_SUBDIR.
(arch-i386.o, arch-amd64.o): Remove rules.
(arch/%.o): New rule.
Update POSTCOMPILE and COMPILE.pre.
* configure.ac: Invoke AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS.
* configure: Re-generated.
* configure.srv: Replace arch-i386.o with arch/i386.o.
Replace arch-amd64.o with arch/amd64.o.
4fa7574 (Fix gdb 8.1 Solaris compilation) changes warning.m4 and updates
configure, but gdbserver/configure is not updated.
gdb/gdbserver:
2017-10-16 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* configure: Regenerated.
Remove the usage of inferior_list for the all_threads list in
gdbserver. The entry field in thread_info is removed, and replaced by a
simple ptid field.
I added some functions to iterate (for_each_thread) and find threads
(find_thread). However, changing all the users of find_inferior & co to
use these new functions would have made the patch way too big. So I
opted instead to make find_inferior & co some shims, so that the
existing code only needs to be updated minimally. We can then update
the existing code to use the new functions incrementally (I've started
to do the work, but I'll post it afterwards, see [1] if you want a peek).
This patch has been built-tested on all relevant platforms, except
lynx. I also regtested using the native-gdbserver and
native-extended-gdbserver boards on x86.

As a small step towards removing inferior_list/inferior_list_entry, this

I have the goal of "poisoning" the XNEW/xfree-family of functions, so
that we catch their usages with non-POD types. A few things need to be
fixed in the mean time, this is one.
The common lwp code in linux-nat.c and gdbserver/linux-low.c xfrees the
private lwp data of type arch_lwp_info. However, that type is opaque
from its point of view, as its defined differently in each arch-specific
implementation. This trips on the std::is_pod<T> check, since the
compiler can't tell whether the type is POD or not if it doesn't know
about it.
My initial patch [1] made a class hierarchy with a virtual destructor.
However, as Pedro pointed out, we only have one native architecture at
the time built in gdb and gdbserver, so that's overkill. Instead, we
can move the responsibility of free'ing arch_lwp_info to the arch code
(which is also the one that allocated it in the first place). This is
what this patch does.
Also, I had the concern that if we wanted to use C++ features in these
structures, we would have a problem with the one-definition rule.
However, since a build will only have one version of arch_lwp_info,
that's not a problem.
There are changes in arch-specific files, I was only able to built-test
this patch with the following cross-compilers:
aarch64-linux-gnu
alpha-linux-gnu
arm-linux-gnueabihf
hppa-linux-gnu

* win32-low.c: Include "common-inferior.h".
This is the "natural" extension necessary for the "set cwd" command
(and the whole "set the inferior's cwd" logic) to work on gdbserver.
The idea here is to have a new remote packet, QSetWorkingDir (name
adopted from LLDB's extension to the RSP, as can be seen at
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/master/docs/lldb-gdb-remote.txt>),
which sends an hex-encoded string representing the working directory
that the remote inferior will use. There is a slight difference from
the packet proposed by LLDB: GDB's version will accept empty
arguments, meaning that the user wants to clear the previously set
working directory for the inferior (i.e., "set cwd" without arguments
on GDB).
For UNIX-like targets this feature is already implemented on
nat/fork-inferior.c, and all gdbserver has to do is to basically
implement "set_inferior_cwd" and call it whenever such packet arrives.
For other targets, like Windows, it is possible to use the existing
"get_inferior_cwd" function and do the necessary steps to make sure
that the inferior will use the specified working directory.
Aside from that, the patch consists basically of updates to the
testcase (making it available on remote targets) and the
documentation.
No regressions found.

This commit adds new "set/show cwd" commands, which are used to
set/show the current working directory of the inferior that will be
started.
The idea here is that "set cwd" will become the de facto way of
setting the inferior's cwd. Currently, the user can use "cd" for
that, but there are side effects: with "cd", GDB also switches to
another directory, and that can impact the loading of scripts and
other files. With "set cwd", we separate the logic into a new
command.
To maintain backward compatibility, if the user issues a "cd" command
but doesn't use "set cwd", then the inferior's cwd will still be
changed according to what the user specified. However, "set cwd" has
precedence over "cd", so it can always be used to override it.
"set cwd" works in the following way:
- If the user sets the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", then this
directory is saved into current_inferior ()->cwd and is used when
the inferior is started (see below).
- If the user doesn't set the inferior's cwd by using "set cwd", but
rather use the "cd" command as before, then this directory is
inherited by the inferior because GDB will have chdir'd into it.
On Unix-like hosts, the way the directory is changed before the
inferior execution is by expanding the user set directory before the
fork, and then "chdir" after the call to fork/vfork on
"fork_inferior", but before the actual execution. On Windows, the
inferior cwd set by the user is passed directly to the CreateProcess
call, which takes care of the actual chdir for us.
This way, we'll make sure that GDB's cwd is not affected by the user
set cwd.

Currently, whenever we want to handle paths provided by the user and
perform tilde expansion on GDB, we rely on "tilde_expand", which comes
from readline. This was enough for our use cases so far, but the
situation will change when we start dealing with paths on gdbserver as
well, which is what the next patches implement.
Unfortunately it is not possible to use "tilde_expand" in this case
because gdbserver doesn't use readline. For that reason I decided to
implement a new "gdb_tilde_expand" function, which is basically a
wrapper for "glob" and its GNU extension, GLOB_TILDE_CHECK. With the
import of the "glob" module from gnulib, we're sure that "glob" always
supports this extension.

In gdbserver, target descriptions need to be initialized by calling
init_target_desc. Because i386_create_target_description is shared with
GDB, it doesn't do that, the callers must take care of it. These two
platforms currently don't.
I am not able to build them, so I couldn't test.

If we had this in place before, then the regression fixed by the

Debugging manually we'd see this:
gdbserver: Cannot get thread handle for LWP 1467: generic error
Instead of:

which is misleading - gdbserver didn't 27471, that was stale stack

Commit 8629910955 ("Add thread_db_notice_clone to gdbserver")
introduced calls into libthread_db without making sure that the
current thread is pointing to a know-stopped thread. This resulted in
sometimes thread_db_notice_clone failing->find_one_thread failing like
this, as seen when running gdb.threads/multi-create-ns-info-thr.exp:

gdbserver: Cannot find thread after clone.

Things go south from here and sometimes that ends up resulting in
gdbserver crashing and the test failing.

This is a technical debt that I left when I ported "switch_to_thread"
to gdbserver. It's a simple patch that converts occurences of:
current_thread = find_thread_ptid (ptid);
to:
switch_to_thread (ptid);
This patch also converts a simple "if" to a "gdb_assert" on
gdbserver's version of "switch_to_thread":
gdb_assert (ptid != minus_one_ptid);
This change makes the code more similar to what GDB already does.
Regtested on BuildBot.

When trying to run gdbserver compiled for x86 win32 under wine, I get:
$ wine ./gdbserver/gdbserver.exe --once :1234 ./test
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/regcache.c:177: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.
regcache* new_register_cache(const target_desc*): Assertion `tdesc->registers_size != 0' failed.
It seems like on that platform, init_target_desc is never called, so
registers_size is never computed.
My first thought was to call init_target_desc somewhere in win32-low.c,
but it turns out that when using win32 on arm, the target description is
already initialized by the generated code. My second thought was to
call it in {i386,amd64}_create_target_description, but those functions
are shared with GDB, and init_target_desc is gdbserver-specific. So I
ended up with the simplest fix, calling it in i386_arch_setup.
Now I hit some other problem:
$ wine ./gdbserver/gdbserver.exe --once :1234 ./test
Killing process(es): 39
No program to debug
Exiting
but still, I think fixing the tdesc issue this is a step forward.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* win32-i386-low.c (i386_arch_setup): Call init_target_desc.
This patch adds support to remote targets for converting a thread
handle to a thread_info struct pointer.
A thread handle is fetched via a "handle" attribute which has been
added to the qXfer:threads:read query packet. An implementation is
provided in gdbserver for targets using the Linux kernel.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.h (struct lwp_info): Add new field, thread_handle.
(thread_db_thread_handle): Declare.
* linux-low.c (linux_target_ops): Initialize thread_handle.
* server.c (handle_qxfer_threads_worker): Add support for
"handle" attribute.
* target.h (struct target_ops): Add new function pointer,
thread_handle.
(target_thread_handle): Define.
* thread-db.c (find_one_thread, attach_thread): Set thread_handle
field in lwp.
(thread_db_thread_handle): New function.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* remote.c (vector): Include.
(struct private_thread_info): Add field, thread_handle.
(free_private_thread_info): Deallocate storage associated with
thread handle.
(get_private_info_thread): Initialize `thread_handle' field.
(struct thread_item): Add field, thread_handle.
(clear_threads_listing_context): Deallocate storage associated
with thread handle.
(start_thread): Add support for "handle" attribute.
(thread_attributes): Add "handle".
(remote_get_threads_with_qthreadinfo): Initialize thread_handle
field.
(remote_update_thread_list): Update thread_handle.
(remote_thread_handle_to_thread_info): New function.
(init_remote_ops): Initialize to_thread_handle_to_thread_info.
While working on a patch for fetching a thread handle in gdbserver, I
ran into a circumstance in which tests in gdb.mi/mi-nsmoribund.exp
would occasionally fail. Over a large enough number of runs, it would
fail roughly 2% of the time.
That thread handle patch caused find_one_thread() to be called on
every stop. find_one_thread() calls td_ta_map_lwp2thr() which, in
turn, can cause ps_get_thread_area() to be called.
ps_get_thread_area() makes a call to ptrace() for getting the thread
area address. If this should happen when the thread is not stopped,
the call to ptrace will return error which in turn propogates back to
find_one_thread(). find_one_thread() calls error() in this instance
which causes the program to die.
This patch causes find_one_thread() to be called upon reciept of a
clone event. Since the clone is stopped, the circumstances described
above cannot occur.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Call thread_db_notice_clone().
* linux-low.h (thread_db_notice_clone): Declare.
* thread-db.c (thread_db_notice_clone): New function.
Back in commit f0db101d98 ("gdbserver: don't pick a random thread if
the current thread dies"), a couple years ago, the last references to
set_desired_thread(0) [select the Hc thread] were removed, and all the
remaining calls to set_desired_thread pass '1', meaning general
thread. This means we can simplify set_desired_thread.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-09-21 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* server.c (gdb_read_memory, handle_status, process_serial_event)
(handle_serial_event, handle_target_event): Adjust to
set_desired_thread prototype change.
* target.c (set_desired_thread): Remove 'use_general' parameter
and adjust.
* target.h (set_desired_thread): Remove 'use_general' parameter.
Using std::string in handle_qxfer_libraries and friends allow to
simplify the code. We don't have to manually free the buffer, and we
don't have to pre-compute the required space.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (accumulate_file_name_length): Remove.
(emit_dll_description): Adjust to std::string change.
(handle_qxfer_libraries): Use std::string to hold document.
This is a simple replacement, it allows removing some manual free'ing in
the callers.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/buffer.c (buffer_xml_printf): Adjust.
* common/xml-utils.c (xml_escape_text): Change return type to
std::string, update code accordingly.

Adjust.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_qxfer_libraries_svr4): Adjust to change of
return type of xml_escape_text.
* server.c (emit_dll_description): Likewise.
With the growing number of selftests, I think it would be useful to be
able to run only a subset of the tests. This patch associates a name to
each registered selftest. It then allows doing something like:
(gdb) maintenance selftest aarch64
Running self-tests.
Running selftest aarch64-analyze-prologue.
Running selftest aarch64-process-record.
Ran 2 unit tests, 0 failed
or with gdbserver:
./gdbserver --selftest=aarch64
In both cases, only the tests that contain "aarch64" in their name are
ran. To help validate that the tests you want to run were actually ran,
it also prints a message with the test name before running each test.
Right now, all the arch-dependent tests are registered as a single test
of the selftests. To be able to filter those too, I made them
"first-class citizen" selftests. The selftest type is an interface,
with different implementations for "simple selftests" and "arch
selftests". The run_tests function simply iterates on that an invokes
operator() on each test.
I changed the tests data structure from a vector to a map, because
- it allows iterating in a stable (alphabetical) order
- it allows to easily verify if a test with a given name has been
registered, to avoid duplicates
There's also a new command "maintenance info selftests" that lists the
registered selftests.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* common/selftest.h (selftest): New struct/interface.
(register_test): Add name parameter, add new overload.
(run_tests): Add filter parameter.
(for_each_selftest_ftype): New typedef.
(for_each_selftest): New declaration.

This is a followup patch to the build breakage fix on AArch64. While
doing the fix, I found it better to convert tdesc->reg_defs (on
gdbserver/tdesc.h) from using VEC to using std::vector. This makes
the code easier to read and maintain, and also is one more step
towards the C++fication.
Regtested on BuildBot.
2017-09-16 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* regcache.c (get_thread_regcache): Update code to use "std::vector"
instead of "VEC" for "target_desc.reg_defs".

(operator==): Likewise.
As explained in the previous patch, the gdb_id concept is no longer
relevant. The function thread_to_gdb_id is trivial, it returns the
thread's ptid. Remove it and replace its usage with ptid_of.
The changes in nto-low.c and lynx-low.c are fairly straightforward, but
I was not able to build test them.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* inferiors.h (thread_to_gdb_id): Remove.
* inferiors.c (thread_to_gdb_id): Remove.
* server.c (handle_qxfer_threads_worker, handle_query): Adjust.

nto_stopped_by_watchpoint, nto_stopped_data_address): Likewise.
From what I understand, this function is not doing anything useful as of
today.
Here's the result of my archeological research:
- The field thread_info::gdb_id was added in
a06660f7 Use LWP IDs for thread IDs in gdbserver
There was problem when using a 32-bits gdb with a 64-bits gdbserver.
For some reason that I don't fully understand, the thread ids
exchanged between gdb and gdbserver could overflow a 32 bits data
type. My guess is that they were the thread address (e.g. the
0x7ffff7f20b40 in "Thread 0x7ffff7f20b40 (LWP 1058)" today). This
patch changed that so gdb/gdbserver would talk in terms of the OS
assigned numerical id (as shown in ps). It therefore added a way to
convert between this gdb_id (the numerical id) and the thread id (the
address).
- 95954743cb Implement the multiprocess extensions, and add linux
multiprocess supportNon-stop mode support.
This patch made gdbserver deal with threads using their numerical ids
and not the address-like id. Starting from there, the gdb_id <->
thread id conversion was not needed anymore, since the remote protocol
and gdbserver were using the same kind of ids again. The gdb_id field
in the thread_info structure was also unused starting there.
- d50171e4 Teach linux gdbserver to step-over-breakpoints.
This patch moved the thread_info structure around, and got rid of the
gdb_id field (which was unused).
Looking at the implementation of gdb_id_to_thread_id, it is not doing
anything useful. It is looking up a thread by ptid using
find_thread_ptid, which basically loops over all threads looking at
their entry.id field. If a thread with that ptid is found, it returns
its entry.id field. So it will always return the same thing as it input
(with the exception of if no thread exist with that ptid, then it will
return null_ptid).
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* inferiors.h (gdb_id_to_thread_id): Remove.
* inferiors.c (gdb_id_to_thread_id): Remove.
* server.c (process_serial_event): Adjust to gdb_id_to_thread_id
removal. Move pid declaration closer to where it's used.
The code required to handle the 'D' packet is non trivial, so move it
out to its own function.
The moved out code is identical, except for the call to strtol and some
breaks that became returns.
Tested manually, and by running gdb.base/*detach*.exp with
native-gdbserver and native-extended-gdbserver.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (handle_detach): New function.
(process_serial_event): Move code out, call handle_detach.
I find it very confusing to define the require_running in the middle of
the file, and re-define it to something else later in the middle of the
same file. I think it would be better if those macros had different
names so that we know exactly what they do.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (require_running): Rename to ...
(require_running_or_return): ... this ...
(require_running_or_break): ... and this.
(handle_query, process_serial_event): Adjust.
We have about 6 functions/callbacks to find_inferior meant to find a
thread that belongs to a given pid. Remove all but
find_any_thread_of_pid and replace their uses with
find_any_thread_of_pid.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* server.c (first_thread_of): Remove.
(process_serial_event): Replace usage of first_thread_of with
find_any_thread_of_pid.

(switch_to_process): Replace usage of any_thread_of with
find_any_thread_of_pid.
* inferiors.c (thread_pid_matches_callback): Remove.
(find_thread_process): Adjust to use find_any_thread_of_pid.
The last commit unfortunately was not enough to fix the build breakage
on AArch64. I made a mistake and did not test it alone on BuildBot,
but along with another patch that was responsible for fixing the
breakage.
The failure is:
In file included from /usr/include/string.h:640:0,

__warn_memset_zero_len ();
This is likely due to a GCC bug, because for some reason the compiler
assumes that the third argument to the memset:
memset (regcache->register_status, REG_UNAVAILABLE,
VEC_length (tdesc_reg_p, regcache->tdesc->reg_defs));
is always zero, which is not always true.
Anyway, the simple fix for this is to guard the memset calls with:
if (!VEC_empty (tdesc_reg_p, regcache->tdesc->reg_defs))
This time, I made sure to regtest only this patch on BuildBot, and it
finally solved the breakage.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

This patch fixes the build breakage that has been happening on AArch64
since September 5th. The breakage was introduced by the following

Use VEC for target_desc.reg_defs
The build log for this commit can be seen here:
<https://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/builders/Ubuntu-AArch64-native-gdbserver-m64/builds/2696/steps/compile%20gdb/logs/stdio>
And the underlying problem is that the code is not calling the new
function "allocate_target_description" to allocate the "struct
target_desc" using "new" instead of XNEW, which end up not properly
initializing the fields of the structure.
Regtested on BuildBot.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-09-10 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Use
"allocate_target_description" instead of "XNEW".
* linux-x86-low.c (initialize_low_arch): Likewise.
GDBserver now is able to generate target descriptions from features, so
don't need to remember these target description files.
Note that it should be i386/amd64-avx-avx512-linux.xml instead of
i386/amd64-avx-avx512.xml in $srv_amd64_linux_xmlfiles. This patch
removes it anyway.
gdb/gdbserver:
2017-09-05 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* configure.srv (srv_amd64_linux_xmlfiles): Remove
i386/amd64-XXX-linux from it.

The code on creating i386-linux target descriptions are quite similar
between GDB and GDBserver, so this patch moves them into a shared file

GDBserver still uses pre-generated target descriptions in order to
reply to GDB's query on target description (see xml-builtin-generated.c
in GDBserver build directory). This patch teaches GDBserver to
create XML contents according to the target descriptions rather than
using pre-generated ones.
First, change target feature c files to pass the feature xml file
name to tdesc_create_feature, so that target description in GDBserver
can record them, and create XML contents from these features in
buffer, like
...
<xi:include href="$FEATURE1_XML_NAME"/>
<xi:include href="$FEATURE2_XML_NAME"/>
...
and send this buffer back to GDB.
Note that this patch reuses target_desc.xmltarget a little bit, which is
to hold the XML contents dynamically generated in tdesc_get_features_xml.
However, it is not xfree'ed in ~target_desc, because we can't tell it is
from xstrdup or a literal string. Since we don't delete target_desc,
there is no memory leak yet. After we change all target descriptions to
the new style, target_desc.xmltarget is from xstrdup, then, we can safely
xfree it in ~target_desc.

Nowadays, target_desc.reg_defs is a pointer points to a pre-generated
array, which is not flexible. This patch changes it from an array
to a VEC so that GDBserver can create target descriptions dynamically
later. Instead of using pre-generated array, the -generated.c calls
VEC_safe_push to add each register to vector.
Since target_desc.reg_defs is used in IPA, we need to build common/vec.c
for IPA too.

If you "make" from scratch in gdbserver/, you'll notice that make
deletes the files it considers as intermediary at the end:
$ make clean && make
...
rm i386-mmx-linux-generated.c x32-avx-avx512-linux-generated.c ...
Then, if you type make again, make will rebuild these files and rebuild
gdbserver. To avoid this, we can add the .SECONDARY special target. If
it has no pre-requisites, all intermediary files will be kept.

This patch implements the ability to set/unset environment variables
on the remote target, mimicking what GDB already offers to the user.
There are two features present here: user-set and user-unset
environment variables.
User-set environment variables are only the variables that are
explicitly set by the user, using the 'set environment' command. This
means that variables that were already present in the environment when
starting GDB/GDBserver are not transmitted/considered by this feature.
User-unset environment variables are variables that are explicitly
unset by the user, using the 'unset environment' command.
The idea behind this patch is to store user-set and user-unset
environment variables in two separate sets, both part of gdb_environ.
Then, when extended_remote_create_inferior is preparing to start the
inferior, it will iterate over the two sets and set/unset variables
accordingly. Three new packets are introduced:
- QEnvironmentHexEncoded, which is used to set environment variables,
and contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR=VALUE" (VALUE
can be empty if the user set a variable with a null value, by doing
'set environment VAR=').
- QEnvironmentUnset, which is used to unset environment variables, and
contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR".
- QEnvironmentReset, which is always the first packet to be
transmitted, and is used to reset the environment, i.e., discard any
changes made by the user on previous runs.
The QEnvironmentHexEncoded packet is inspired on LLDB's extensions to
the RSP. Details about it can be seen here:
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/master/docs/lldb-gdb-remote.txt>
I decided not to implement the QEnvironment packet because it is
considered deprecated by LLDB. This packet, on LLDB, serves the same
purpose of QEnvironmentHexEncoded, but sends the information using a
plain text, non-hex-encoded string.
The other two packets are new.
This patch also includes updates to the documentation, testsuite, and
unit tests, without introducing regressions.

I got confused by the result value of fast_tracepoint_collecting, while
it sounds like it would return true/false (whether the thread is
collecting or not), it actually returns:
0: not collecting
1: in the jump pad, before the relocated instruction
2: in the jump pad, at or after the relocated instruction
To avoid confusion, I think it would be nice to make it return an enum.
If you can help find a shorter but still relavant name, it would be
awesome. Otherwise, we'll go with that, fast_tpoint_collect_result,
which is at least consistent with the existing
fast_tpoint_collect_status.

struct target_desc is used by both GDBserver and IPA, but fields

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.

AFAIK, the register keyword is not relevant today, and clang complains
about it:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:5873:3: error: 'register' storage class specifier is deprecated and incompatible with C++1z
[-Werror,-Wdeprecated-register]
register PTRACE_XFER_TYPE *buffer;
^~~~~~~~~
I think we can safely remove it.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_read_memory, linux_write_memory): Remove

clang complains that for some types, we use both the class and struct
keywords in different places. It's not really a problem, so I think we
can safely turn this warning off.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* configure: Re-generate.
* warning.m4 (build_warnings): Add -Wno-mismatched-tags.
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
patch, so I included it.

* warning.m4: Pass -Werror to compiler when checking for

Because we are compiling .c files containing C++ code, clang++ complains
with:
clang: error: treating 'c' input as 'c++' when in C++ mode, this behavior is deprecated
If renaming all the source files to .cpp is out of the question, an
alternative is to pass "-x c++" to convince the compiler that we are
really compiling C++. It works fine with GCC too.

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.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2017-06-09 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* fork-child.c: Conditionally include <signal.h>.
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.

* inferiors.c (switch_to_thread): New function.
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).

* Makefile.in (SFILE): Add "common/job-control.c".
(OBS): Add "job-control.o".
Due to my ongoing work to make it possible for gdbserver to start the
inferior using the shell, I had to share the fork_inferior function
under the "nat/" directory. In order to do that, I created a new file
and put the function there; however, this meant that I now had to
update some of the *.mh files (under "gdb/config") and add the new
file as a dependency to be built natively. Bleh...
After talking a bit to Pedro about this, the idea came up to write a
new "gdb/configure.nat" file, a la "gdb/configure.tgt", which would
concentrate all of the native settings for each host/system. I
decided to tackle this issue.
The patch is simple. All of the previous Makefile variables that were
being declared inside the *.mh files are now inside "gdb/Makefile.in",
and "gdb/configure" is responsible for AC_SUBST'ing them. The
definitions of these variables were put inside "gdb/configure.nat", so
now they're shell variables. For excerpts of Makefile code, one must
create a file under "gdb/config/${gdb_cpu_host}" and reference it on
the "nat_extra_makefile_frag" variable.
It should now be easier to update the native dependencies of hosts in
this single file.
This has been tested on x86_64 without regressions.

Newer GCCs are triggering false-positive -Wmaybe-uninitialized
warnings around code that uses gdb::optional:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-05/msg00118.html
Using std::optional wouldn't help, it triggers the same warnings:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=80635
Initializing the variables to quiet the warning would defeat the
purpose of gdb::optional. Making the optional ctor memset its storage
would be a pessimization. Wrapping gdb::optional's internals with
"#pragma GCC diagnostic push/ignored/pop" doesn't work, we'd have to
wrap uses of gdb::optional instead, which I think would get unwieldy
and ugly as we start using gdb::optional more and more.
The -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning is documented as producing false
positives (unlike -Wuninialized), so until we find a better
workaround, disable -Werror for this warning. You'll still see the
warning when building gdb, but it won't cause a build failure.
Tested by building with gcc 4.8.5, 5.3.1, and gcc trunk (20170428).

As requested, I'm sending this as a separate patch because it is ready
to be included as-is.
The idea here is that both gdb/terminal.h and gdb/gdbserver/terminal.h
share the same code, which is responsible for setting a bunch of
defines on based on the presence of termios.h and a few other headers.
This simple patch just moves this common code to common/gdb_termios.h
and makes the necessary adjustments on both GDB and gdbserver so that
they can use this new header. It also implements the some header
checks on common/common.m4.
As a bonus, gdb/gdbserver/terminal.h can be removed because it's now
empty.
Built on x86_64, no regressions found.

As a preparation for the next patch, which will move fork_inferior
from GDB to common/ (and therefore share it with gdbserver), it is
interesting to convert a few functions to C++.
This patch touches functions related to parsing command-line arguments
to the inferior (see gdb/fork-child.c:breakup_args), the way the
arguments are stored on fork_inferior (using std::vector instead of
char **), and the code responsible for dealing with argv also on
gdbserver.
I've taken this opportunity and decided to constify a few arguments to
fork_inferior/create_inferior as well, in order to make the code
cleaner. And now, on gdbserver, we're using xstrdup everywhere and
aren't checking for memory allocation failures anymore, as requested
by Pedro:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-03/msg00191.html>

IMO this refactoring was very good to increase the readability of the
code as well, because some parts of the argument handling were
unnecessarily confusing before.

I grew a bit tired of using ptid_get_{lwp,pid,tid} and friends, so I decided to
make it a bit easier to use by making it a proper class. The fields are now
private, so it's not possible to change a ptid_t field by mistake.
The new methods of ptid_t map to existing functions/practice like this:
ptid_t (pid, lwp, tid) -> ptid_build (pid, lwp, tid)
ptid_t (pid) -> pid_to_ptid (pid)
ptid.is_pid () -> ptid_is_pid (ptid)
ptid == other -> ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid != other -> !ptid_equal (ptid, other)
ptid.pid () -> ptid_get_pid (ptid)
ptid.lwp_p () -> ptid_lwp_p (ptid)
ptid.lwp () -> ptid_get_lwp (ptid)
ptid.tid_p () -> ptid_tid_p (ptid)
ptid.tid () -> ptid_get_tid (ptid)
ptid.matches (filter) -> ptid_match (ptid, filter)
I've replaced the implementation of the existing functions with calls to
the new methods. People are encouraged to gradually switch to using the
ptid_t methods instead of the functions (or we can change them all in
one pass eventually).
Also, I'm not sure if it's worth it (because of ptid_t's relatively
small size), but I have made the functions and methods take ptid_t
arguments by const reference instead of by value.

This reporting via TARGET_WAITKIND_EXECD it's totally unnecessary.
get_child_debug_event returns a TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS by default,

In some situations, the dependency tracking files in .deps can refer to
source files that were removed or renamed, leading to errors like:
make: *** No rule to make target `version.c', needed by `version.o'. Stop.
This patch makes the clean target clear the .deps directory, which gives
the user a chance to recover from the error wihtout knowing about the
internals of the build system.
It is already done for GDB. See here for more details:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-03/msg00000.html
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (clean): Clear .deps.
I noticed that there were some missing files in gdbserver's gitignore
(some generated register format .c files). Of course the easy fix would
be to add those files to .gitignore, but I think we can do a better job,
so that we don't have to worry about adding generated files to
.gitignore or the clean Makefile target.
I suggest naming all generated source files -generated.c. This way, we
can use a single rule in .gitignore and do a "rm -f *-generated.c" to
clean them up.

The register structure is the same for windowed and call0 ABIs because
currently linux kernel internally requires windowed registers, so they
are always present.

We will need access to the environment functions when we share

The macros mentioned in the title were set only for GDB. In gdbserver they
were not set until now. To align the code in GDB and gdbserver these macros
are also added into gdbserver, enabling read and write of gs_base and fs_base

Before this patch, some functions would read the inferior memory with
(*the_target)->read_memory, which returns the raw memory, rather than the
shadowed memory.
This is wrong since these functions do not expect to read a breakpoint
instruction and can lead to invalid behavior.
Use of raw memory in get_next_pcs_read_memory_unsigned_integer for example
could lead to get_next_pc returning an invalid pc.
Here's how this would happen:
In non-stop:
the user issues:
thread 1
step&
thread 2
step&
thread 3
step&
In a similar way as non-stop-fair-events.exp (threads are looping).
GDBServer:
linux_resume is called
GDBServer has pending events,
threads are not resumed and single-step breakpoint for thread 1 not installed.
linux_wait_1 is called with a pending event on thread 2 at pc A
GDBServer handles the event and calls proceed_all_lwps
This calls proceed_one_lwp and installs single-step breakpoints on all
the threads that need one.
Now since thread 1 needs to install a single-step breakpoint and is at pc B
(different than thread 2), a step-over is not initiated and get_next_pc
is called to figure out the next instruction from pc B.
However it may just be that thread 3 as a single step breakpoint at pc
B. And thus get_next_pc fails.
This situation is tested with non-stop-fair-events.exp.
In other words, single-step breakpoints are installed in proceed_one_lwp
for each thread. GDBserver proceeds two threads for resume_step, as
requested by GDB, and the thread proceeded later may see the single-step
breakpoints installed for the thread proceeded just now.
Tested on gdbserver-native/-m{thumb,arm} no regressions.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-aarch32-low.c (arm_breakpoint_kind_from_pc): Use
target_read_memory.
* linux-arm-low.c (get_next_pcs_read_memory_unsigned_integer): Likewise.

Since we don't use suffix rules nor implicit rules in gdb, we can
disable them. The advantage is a slightly faster make [1].
Here are some numbers about the speedup. I ran this on my trusty old
Intel Q6600, so the time numbers are probably higher than what you'd get
on any recent hardware. I ran "make" in the gdb/ directory of an
already built repository (configured with --enable-targets=all). I
recorded the time of execution (average of 5). I then ran "make -d" and
recorded the number of printed lines, which gives a rough idea of the
number of operations done.
I compared the following configurations, to see the impact of both the
empty .SUFFIXES target and the empty pattern rules, as well as running
"make -r", which can be considered the "ideal" case.
A - baseline
B - baseline + .SUFFIXES
C - baseline + pattern rules
D - baseline + .SUFFIXES + pattern rules
E - baseline + make -r
config | time (s) | "make -d"
-----------------------------
A | 5.74 | 2396643
B | 1.19 | 298469
C | 2.81 | 1266573
D | 1.13 | 245489
E | 1.01 | 163914
We can see that the empty .SUFFIXES target has a bigger impact than the
empty pattern rules, but still it doesn't hurt to disable the implicit
pattern rules as well.
There are still some mentions of implicit rules I can't get rid of in
the "make -d" output. For example, it's trying to build .c files from
.w files:
Looking for an implicit rule for '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'infrun'.
Trying implicit prerequisite '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.w'.
and trying to build Makefile.in from a bunch of extensions:
Looking for an implicit rule for 'Makefile.in'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.o'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.c'.
Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'.
Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.cc'.
... many more ...
If somebody knows how to disable them, we can do it, but at this point
the returns are minimal, so it is not that important.
I verified that both in-tree and out-of-tree builds work.
[1] Switching from explicit rules to pattern rules for files in
subdirectories actually made it slower, so this is kind of a way to
redeem myself. But it the end it's faster than it was previously,
so it was all worth it. :)

This patch fixes a few problems with GDB's time handling.
#1 - It avoids problems with gnulib's C++ namespace support
On MinGW, the struct timeval that should be passed to gnulib's
gettimeofday replacement is incompatible with libiberty's
timeval_sub/timeval_add. That's because gnulib also replaces "struct
timeval" with its own definition, while libiberty expects the
system's.
E.g., in code like this:
gettimeofday (&prompt_ended, NULL);
timeval_sub (&prompt_delta, &prompt_ended, &prompt_started);
timeval_add (&prompt_for_continue_wait_time,
&prompt_for_continue_wait_time, &prompt_delta);
That's currently handled in gdb by not using gnulib's gettimeofday at
all (see common/gdb_sys_time.h), but that #undef hack won't work with
if/when we enable gnulib's C++ namespace support, because that mode
adds compile time warnings for uses of ::gettimeofday, which are hard
errors with -Werror.
#2 - But there's an elephant in the room: gettimeofday is not monotonic...
We're using it to:
a) check how long functions take, for performance analysis
b) compute when in the future to fire events in the event-loop
c) print debug timestamps
But that's exactly what gettimeofday is NOT meant for. Straight from
the man page:
~~~
The time returned by gettimeofday() is affected by
discontinuous jumps in the system time (e.g., if the system
administrator manually changes the system time). If you need a
monotonically increasing clock, see clock_gettime(2).
~~~
std::chrono (part of the C++11 standard library) has a monotonic clock
exactly for such purposes (std::chrono::steady_clock). This commit
switches to use that instead of gettimeofday, fixing all the issues
mentioned above.

I find the big file lists in the Makefiles a bit ugly and not very
practical. Since there are multiple filenames on each line (as much as
fits in 80 columns), it's not easy to add, remove or change a name in
the middle. As a result, we have a mix of long and short lines in no
particular order (ALL_TARGET_OBS is a good example).
I therefore suggest flattening the lists (one name per line) and keeping
them in alphabetical order. The diffs will be much clearer and merge
conflicts will be easier to resolve.
A nice (IMO) side-effect I observed is that the files are compiled
alphabetically by make, so it gives a rough idea of the progress of the
build.
I added a comment in gdb/Makefile.in to mention to keep the file lists
ordered, and gave the general guidelines on what order to respect. I
added a comment in other Makefiles which refers to gdb/Makefile.in, to
avoid duplication.
Running the patch through the buildbot found that gdb.base/default.exp
started to fail. The languages in the error message shown when typing
"set language" have changed order. We could probably improve gdb so
that it prints them in a stable order, regardless of the order of the
object list passed to the linked, but just fixing the test is easier for
now.
New in v2:
- Change ordering style, directories go at the end.
- Cleanup gdbserver's and data-directory's Makefile as well.

As mentioned here [1], suffix rules are obsolete and have been
superseeded with pattern rules. People (myself included, before writing
this patch) are more likely to know what pattern rules are than suffix
rules.
AFAIK, .SUFFIXES targets are only used for those rules, and can be
removed as well.

Since GNU make is now required to build GDB, we can remove everything
that checks whether the current make implemention is the GNU one or
not. I simply removed the @GMAKE_TRUE@ prefixes and removed the whole
lines that were prefixed with @GMAKE_FALSE@.
I removed the code in the configure scripts that set those variables.
I also removed the following bits from the configure scripts:
AC_CHECK_PROGS(MAKE, make): GNU make already defines a MAKE variable
internally to be used when invoking Makefiles recursively. I don't see
this variable being used anywhere else (in scripts for example), so I
think it's safe for removal.
AC_PROG_MAKE_SET: This macro defines a SET_MAKE output variable, which
is meant to be used in Makefiles to define the MAKE variable when
using an implementation of make that doesn't already define it.
Since we are now requiring GNU make, we don't need it anymore.
Plus, I don't see SET_MAKE being used anywhere, so I don't think it
was actually doing anything...

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).

Nowadays, we select events to be reported to GDB in random, however
that is not enough when many GDBserver internal events (not reported
to GDB) are generated.
GDBserver pulls all events out of kernel via waitpid, and leave them
pending. When goes through threads which have pending events,
GDBserver uses find_inferior to find the first thread which has
pending event, and consumes it. Note that find_inferior always
iterate threads in a fixed order. If multiple threads keep hitting
GDBserver breakpoints, range stepping with single-step breakpoint for
example, threads in the head of the thread list are more likely to be
processed and threads in the tail are starved. This causes some timeout
fails in gdb.threads/non-stop-fair-events.exp when range stepping is
enabled on arm-linux.
This patch fixes this issue by randomly selecting pending events. It
adds a new function find_inferior_in_random, which iterates threads
which have pending events randomly.

Currently GDB never sends more than one action per vCont packet, when
connected in non-stop mode. A follow up patch will change that, and
it exposed a gdbserver problem with the vCont handling.
For example, this in non-stop mode:
=> vCont;s:p1.1;c
<= OK
Should be equivalent to:
=> vCont;s:p1.1
<= OK
=> vCont;c
<= OK
But gdbserver currently doesn't handle this. In the latter case,
"vCont;c" makes gdbserver clobber the previous step request. This
patch fixes that.
Note the server side must ignore resume actions for the thread that
has a pending %Stopped notification (and any other threads with events
pending), until GDB acks the notification with vStopped. Otherwise,
e.g., the following case is mishandled:
#1 => g (or any other packet)
#2 <= [registers]
#3 <= %Stopped T05 thread:p1.2
#4 => vCont s:p1.1;c
#5 <= OK
Above, the server must not resume thread p1.2 when it processes the
vCont. GDB can't know that p1.2 stopped until it acks the %Stopped
notification. (Otherwise it wouldn't send a default "c" action.)
(The vCont documentation already specifies this.)
Finally, special care must also be given to handling fork/vfork
events. A (v)fork event actually tells us that two processes stopped
-- the parent and the child. Until we follow the fork, we must not
resume the child. Therefore, if we have a pending fork follow, we
must not send a global wildcard resume action (vCont;c). We can still
send process-wide wildcards though.
(The comments above will be added as code comments to gdb in a follow
up patch.)

Commit 049a8570 (Use target_continue{,_no_signal} instead of target_resume)
replaces the code stopping lwp with target_continue_no_signal in

- resume_info.sig = GDB_SIGNAL_0;

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.

This patch consolidates the API of target_mourn_inferior between GDB
and gdbserver, in my continuing efforts to make sharing the
fork_inferior function possible between both.
GDB's version of the function did not care about the inferior's ptid
being mourned, but gdbserver's needed to know this information. Since
it actually makes sense to pass the ptid as an argument, instead of
depending on a global value directly (which GDB's version did), I
decided to make the generic API to accept it. I then went on and
extended all calls being made on GDB to include a ptid argument (which
ended up being inferior_ptid most of the times, anyway), and now we
have a more sane interface.
On GDB's side, after talking to Pedro a bit about it, we decided that
just an assertion to make sure that the ptid being passed is equal to
inferior_ptid would be enough for now, on the GDB side. We can remove
the assertion and perform more operations later if we ever pass
anything different than inferior_ptid.
Regression tested on our BuildBot, everything OK.
I'd appreciate a special look at gdb/windows-nat.c's modification
because I wasn't really sure what to do there. It seemed to me that
maybe I should build a ptid out of the process information there, but
then I am almost sure the assertion on GDB's side would trigger.

* server.c (start_inferior): Fixed comment, requested comment change
didn't get updated correctly. Removed reference to ptrace () call as
it is only true on Linux systems.
The test checks to make sure GDB exits cleanly if there is
no valid target binary. Currently, ppc and S390 fail on this
test. The function target_post_create_inferior () calls
linux_post_create_inferior () which calls the architecture
specific functions s390_arch_setup () and ppc_arch_setup ()
which make ptrace calls to access the architecture specific
registers. These ptrace calls fail because the process does
not exist causing GDB to exit on error.
This patch checks to see if the initial ptrace (PTRACE_TRACEME, ...)
call returned a status of TARGET_WAITKIND_EXITED indicating the
target has already exited. If the target has exited, then the
target_post_create_inferior () is not called since there is no
inferior to be setup. The test to see if the initial ptrace
call succeeded is done after the ptrace (PTRACE_TRACEME, ...)
call and the wait for the inferior process to stop, assuming
it exists, has occurred.
The patch has been tested on X86 64-bit, ppc64 and s390. If
fixes the test failures on ppc64 and s390. The test does not
fail on X86 64-bit. The patch does not introduce any additional
regression failures on any of these three platforms.

This patch fixes imbalanced lwp_suspend/unsuspend calls caused by the
premature choosing of another event for fairness.
select_event_lwp would switch the event before a call to

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.

Looking at the remote debug logs reveals the problem, here:
Packet received: T05swbreak:;06:a0d4ffff00000000;07:b8d3ffff00000000;10:0096def701000000;thread:p7d7a.7d7a;core:1;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The underlined value is the expedited value of RIP (in little endian).
But notice that 01 in 0x01f7de9600, while gdb says the program stopped
at 0xf7de9600. 0x01ffffffff is over 32 bits, which indicates that
something wen't wrong somewhere in gdbserver.
The problem turns out to be in gdbserver's x86_get_pc / x86_set_pc
routines, where "unsigned long" is used assuming that it can fit a
64-bit value, while unsigned long is actually 32-bit on x32. The
result is that collect_register_by_name / supply_register_by_name end
up reading/writing random bytes off the stack.
Fix this by using explicit uint64_t instead of unsigned long.
For consistency, use uint32_t instead of unsigned int in the 32-bit
paths.

Building an x32 gdb trips on a static assertion:
In file included from .../src/gdb/common/common-defs.h:71:0,

gdb_static_assert (sizeof (nat_siginfo_t) == sizeof (siginfo_t));
^
The problem is that the way nat_siginfo_t is defined, it can only
match the host's siginfo_t object when gdb is built as a 64-bit
program.
Several bits of nat_siginfo_t are off:
- nat_siginfo_t's _pad field's definition is:
int _pad[((128 / sizeof (int)) - 4)];
while /usr/include/bits/siginfo.h has:
# define __SI_MAX_SIZE 128
# if __WORDSIZE == 64
# define __SI_PAD_SIZE ((__SI_MAX_SIZE / sizeof (int)) - 4)
# else
# define __SI_PAD_SIZE ((__SI_MAX_SIZE / sizeof (int)) - 3)
# endif
and __WORDSIZE == 32 for x32. This is what causes the size of
nat_siginfo_t to be wrong and the assertion to fail.
- the nat_clock_t type is incorrect for 64-bit. We have this:
/* For native 64-bit, clock_t in _sigchld is 64bit aligned at 4 bytes. */
typedef long __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (4))) nat_clock_t;
however, /usr/include/bits/siginfo.h has:
# if defined __x86_64__ && __WORDSIZE == 32
/* si_utime and si_stime must be 4 byte aligned for x32 to match the
kernel. We align siginfo_t to 8 bytes so that si_utime and si_stime
are actually aligned to 8 bytes since their offsets are multiple of
8 bytes. */
typedef __clock_t __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (4))) __sigchld_clock_t;
# define __SI_ALIGNMENT __attribute__ ((__aligned__ (8)))
# else
typedef __clock_t __sigchld_clock_t;
# define __SI_ALIGNMENT
# endif
So we're currently forcing 4-byte alignment on clock_t, when it
should only be so for x32, not 64-bit.
The fix:
- Leaves nat_siginfo_t strictly for the 64-bit ABI.
- Adds a new typedef for the siginfo type that ptrace uses
(ptrace_siginfo_t). An x32 gdb always gets/sets an x32 siginfo_t
type with PTRACE_GETSIGINFO/PTRACE_SETSIGINFO.
- Uses this new ptrace_siginfo_t type instead of nat_siginfo_t as the
intermediate conversion type.

when GDBserver gets an event from that thread and reports it back to
GDB.

In order to reduce the difference between resuming thread with signal
and proceeding thread with signal, when we resume thread, we can
enqueue signal too, and proceed thread. The signal will be consumed in
linux_resume_one_lwp_throw from lwp->pending_signals.

This patch makes reinsert_breakpoint thread specific, which means we
insert and remove reinsert_breakpoint breakpoints for a specific
thread. This motivation of this change is that I'll use
reinsert_breakpoint for vCont;s on software single step target, so that
GDBserver may insert one reinsert_breakpoint for one thread doing
step-over, and insert one reinsert_breakpoint for another thread doing
vCont;s. After the operation of one thread is finished, GDBserver must
remove reinsert_breakpoint for that thread only.
On the other hand, reinsert_breakpoint is used for step-over nowadays.
GDBserver inserts reinsert_breakpoint, and wait only from the thread
doing step-over. After the step-over is done, GDBserver removes the
reinsert_breakpoint. If there is still any threads need step-over, do
the same again until all threads are finished step-over. In other words,
reinsert_breakpoint is globally thread specific, but in an implicit way.
It is natural to make it explicitly thread specific.

Nowadays, there are three types of breakpoint in GDBserver,

- reinsert breakpoints, used for software single step,
- other breakpoints, used for tracepoint,
but we only have one 'struct breakpoint' for all of them. Some fields
are only useful to one type of breakpoint. For example, cond_list
and command_list are only used by gdb breakpoints, while handler is
only used by other breakpoints.
This patch changes 'struct breakpoint' to a base class, which has fields
needed by all breakpoint types, also add three sub-classes to
'struct breakpoint' to these three types of breakpoints.

Nowadays, set_breakpoint_at creates breakpoint of type

in set_reinsert_breakpoint to create breakpoint, so that
we have to overwrite the breakpoint type like this,
bp = set_breakpoint_at (stop_at, NULL);
bp->type = reinsert_breakpoint;
which looks not very good. This patch changes set_breakpoint_at
to receive breakpoint type. Since set_breakpoint_at is
used in many places, I rename it to set_breakpoint_type_at, and wrap
it with set_breakpoint_at, and pass other_breakpoint. In this way,
we can call set_breakpoint_type_at with reinsert_breakpoint in
set_reinsert_breakpoint too, and code looks cleaner.

This commit fixes detaching on Linux when some thread exits the whole
thread group (process) just while we're detaching.
On Linux, a ptracer must detach from each LWP individually, with
PTRACE_DETACH. Since PTRACE_DETACH sets the thread running free, if
one of the already-detached threads causes the whole thread group to
exit (e.g., simply calls exit), the kernel force-kills the other
threads in the group, making them zombie, just as we're still
detaching them. Since PTRACE_DETACH against a zombie thread fails
with ESRCH, and gdb/gdbserver are not expecting this, the detach fails
with an error like: "Can't detach process: No such process.".
This patch detects this detach failure as normal, and instead of
erroring out, reaps the now-dead thread.
New test included, that exercises several different scenarios that
cause GDB/GDBserver to error out when it should not.
Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux with {unix, native-gdbserver,
native-extended-gdbserver}
Note: without the previous fix, the "single-process + continue"
variant of the new test would fail with:

In AArch64 displaced stepping and fast tracepoint, GDB/GDBserver needs
to check whether the offset can fit in the range. We are using int32_t
for offset, it is sufficient to get an offset from an instruction, but
it is not enough to get an offset from two addresses. For example,
we have a BL in shared lib which is at 0x0000002000040774, and the
scratch pad for displaced stepping is at 0x400698. The offset can't
fit in 28 bit imm. However, since we are using int32_t for offset, GDB
thinks the offset can fit it, and generate the B instruction with wrong
offset.
It fixes the following fail,

When a thread is doing step-over with reinsert breakpoint, and the
instruction executed is a syscall doing vfork, both parent and child
share the memory, so the reinsert breakpoint in the space is visible
to both of them. Also, removing the reinsert breakpoints from the
child will effectively remove them from the parent. We should
carefully manipulate reinsert breakpoints for both processes.
What we are doing here is that
- uninsert reinsert breakpoints from the parent before cloning the
breakpoint list. We use "uninsert" instead of "remove", because
we need to "reinsert" them back after vfork is done. In fact,
"uninsert" removes them from both child and parent process space.
- reinsert breakpoints in parent process are still copied to child's
breakpoint list,
- remove them from child's breakpoint list as what we did for fork,
at this point, reinsert breakpoints are removed from the child and
the parent, but they are still tracked by the parent's breakpoint
list,
- once vfork is done, "reinsert" them back to the parent,

When a thread is stepping over a syscall instruction with software
single step, GDBserver inserts reinsert breakpoints at the next pcs.
If the syscall call is fork, the forked child has reinsert breakpoint
in its space, and GDBserver clones parent's breakpoint list to child's.
When GDBserver resumes the child, its bp_reinsert is zero, but has
reinsert breakpoints, so the following assert is triggered if I apply
the patch extending step-over-syscall.exp.

* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): If the parent is doing
step-over, remove the reinsert breakpoints from the forked child.
This patch fixes a GDBserver crash when one thread is stepping over
a syscall instruction which is exit. Step-over isn't finished due
to the exit, but GDBserver doesn't clean up the state of step-over,
so in the wait next time, GDBserver will wait on step_over_bkpt,
which is already exited, and GDBserver crashes because
'requested_child' is NULL. See gdbserver logs below,

but nothing is found. It is wrong, we need to search in process A,
since we started step-over of a thread of process A.

I am sending this fix on behalf of Par Olsson, as a follow-up of this
one:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-10/msg00196.html
This problem is exposed when enabling/disabling fast tracepoints on big
endian machines. The flag is defined as an int8_t, but is written from
gdbserver as an integer (usually 32 bits). When the agent code reads it
as an int8_t, it only considers the most significant byte, which is
always 0.
Also, we were writing 32 bits in an 8 bits field, so the write would
overflow, but since the following bytes are padding (the next field is
an uint64_t), it luckily didn't cause any issue on little endian
systems.
The fix was originally tested on ARM big endian systems, but I don't
have access to such a system. However, thanks to Marcin's PowerPC fast
tracepoint patches and gcc110 (big endian Power7) on the gcc compile
farm, I was able to reproduce the problem, test the fix and write a
test (the following patch).

When GDBserver steps over a breakpoint using software single step, it
enqueues the signal, single step and deliver the signal in the next
resume if step over is not needed. In this way, the program won't
receive the signal if the conditional breakpoint is set a branch to
self instruction, because the step over is always needed.
This patch removes the restriction that don't deliver the signal to
the inferior if we are trying to reinsert a breakpoint for software
single step and change the decision on resume vs. step-over when the
LWP has pending signals to deliver.

* linux-low.c (lwp_signal_can_be_delivered): Adjust.
(need_step_over_p): Return zero if the LWP has pending signals
can be delivered on software single step target.
GDBserver steps over a breakpoint while the single step breakpoint
is inserted at the same address, there are two breakpoint objects
using single raw breakpoint, which is inserted (for single step).
When step over is finished, GDBserver reinsert the breakpoint, but
it finds the raw breakpoint is already inserted, and error out
"Breakpoint already inserted at reinsert time." Even if I change the
order to delete reinsert breakpoints first (which only decreases the
refcount, but leave inserted flag unchanged), the error is still
there.
The fix is to remove the error and return instead.

* linux-low.c (reinsert_raw_breakpoint): If bp->inserted is true
return instead of error.
Bits 20 ~ 23 of CPSR are reserved (RAZ, read as zero), but they are not
zero if the arm program runs on aarch64-linux. AArch64 tracer gets PSTATE
from arm 32-bit tracee as CPSR, but bits 20 ~ 23 are used in PSTATE. I
think kernel should clear these bits when it is read through ptrace, but
the fix in user space is still needed.

GDBserver doesn't deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint even
hardware single step is used. When GDBserver started to step over
(thread creation) breakpoint for mutlit-threaded debugging in 2002 [1],
GDBserver behaves this way.
This behavior gets trouble on conditional breakpoints on branch to
self instruction like this,
0x00000000004005b6 <+29>: jmp 0x4005b6 <main+29>
and I set breakpoint
$(gdb) break branch-to-self.c:43 if counter > 3
and the variable counter will be set to 5 in SIGALRM signal handler.
Since GDBserver keeps stepping over breakpoint, the SIGALRM can never
be dequeued and delivered to the inferior, so the program can't stop.
The test can be found in gdb.base/branch-to-self.exp.
GDBserver didn't deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint because
a tracepoint is collected twice if GDBserver does so in the following
scenario, which can be reproduced by gdb.trace/signal.exp.
- program stops at tracepoint, and tracepoint is collected,
- gdbserver starts a step-over,
- a signal arrives, step-over is canceled, and signal should be passed,
- gdbserver starts a new step-over again, pass the signal as well,
- program stops at the entry of signal handler, step-over finished,
- gdbserver proceeds,
- program returns from the signal handler, again to the tracepoint,
and thus is collected again.
The spurious collection isn't that harmful, IMO, so it should be OK
to let GDBserver deliver signal when stepping over a breakpoint.

both MPX and AVX, as duplicates of the existing MPX descriptions.
The following commit will remove AVX from the MPX-only descriptions.

The ptrace args/return types detection doesn't work properly in C++
mode, on non-GNU/Linux hosts. For example, on gcc70 (NetBSD 5.1),
where the prototype is:
int ptrace(int, __pid_t, void*, int);
configure misdetects it as:
$ grep PTRACE_TYPE config.h
#define PTRACE_TYPE_ARG1 int
#define PTRACE_TYPE_ARG3 int *
#define PTRACE_TYPE_ARG4 int
/* #undef PTRACE_TYPE_ARG5 */
#define PTRACE_TYPE_RET int
resulting in:

../../src/gdb/amd64bsd-nat.c:110: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
We could address this [1], however despite ptrace.m4's claim:
# Needs to be tested in C++ mode, to detect whether we need to cast
# the first argument to enum __ptrace_request.
it appears that there's actually no need to test in C++ mode. Always
running the ptrace tests in C mode works just the same on GNU/Linux.
I remember experimenting with several different ways to handle the
original issue back then, and maybe that was needed in some other
attempt and then I didn't realize it ended up not really necessary.
Confirmed that this fixes the NetBSD 5.1 C++ build, and confirmed that
C and C++ builds on Fedora 23 are unaffected.

This patch fixes the following failure:

The test case for emit_sub is fixed so that the proper order of
the operands is needed for the test to pass.
Tested on aarch64-native-extended-gdbserver.
Note: trace-condition.exp was broken a bit so I had to modify it to run
the test. A fix is coming for that in another patch.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-aarch64-low.c (aarch64_emit_add): Switch x1 and x0.
(aarch64_emit_sub): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/trace-condition.exp (foreach): Fix emit_sub testcase.
When we build a shared library for testing, it is built differently
whether it is meant for the local system or a remote one. When it is
for the local system, the library is built with no SONAME. So when the
executable is built, roughly in this way:
$ gcc testfile.c /path/to/library.so
the executable will contain an absolute reference to the library. For
example:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep NEEDED
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [/home/emaisin/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared-sl.sl]
When testing is done remotely, the absolute path obviously doesn't work.
Therefore, we build the library with an SONAME:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared-sl.sl | grep SONAME
0x000000000000000e (SONAME) Library soname: [py-shared-sl.sl]
which ends up in the executable's NEEDED field:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep NEEDED
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [py-shared-sl.sl]
The executable and the library are then uploaded side-by-side on the
remote system. To allow the dynamic linker to find the shared library,
we have to add the special RPATH value $ORIGIN, which tells it to search
in the executable's directory:
$ readelf -a testsuite/gdb.python/py-shared | grep ORIGIN
0x000000000000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [$ORIGIN]
The problem with the IPA library is that it doesn't have an SONAME,
making it very difficult to do testing on a remote board. When a
test executable is linked with it, it contains an absolute reference to
the library path. Therefore, unless the paths on the target are the
same as on the build system, it won't work.
To make it possible for tests using the IPA library to run test on
remote boards, I suggest adding an SONAME to libinproctrace.so. I don't
think it should be a big problem for users. All the libraries installed
on my system have an SONAME, so it should be fine if libinproctrace.so
does too.
As a consequence, native testing does not work anymore, since
executables do not contain the absolute path to the library anymore. To
keep them working, we can have gdb_load_shlibs copy the library to the
test directory when testing natively. That's done by modifying
gdb_load_shlibs. We also have to add RPATH=$ORIGIN to executables, even
when testing natively.
I think it's a good change in general, as it reduces the differences
between testing a native and a remote target. To further reduce those
differences, we can also always build test shared libraries with an
SONAME.
ftrace.exp and ftrace-lock.exp need to be modified slightly. The code
checks that the IPA library is loaded using the absolute path on the
build machine. That obviously doesn't work if the test is done
remotely, as the path will be different. I changed the tests to only
search for the library basename (e.g. libinproctrace.so).
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in ($(IPA_LIB)): Set SONAME of the IPA lib.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/ftrace-lock.exp: Check for IPA basename instead of
absolute.
* gdb.trace/ftrace.exp: Likewise.
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Set rpath $ORIGIN for non-remote
targets as well.
(gdb_compile_shlib): Set SONAME for non-remote targets as well.
(gdb_load_shlibs): Copy libraries to test directory when testing
natively. Only set solib-search-path if testing remotely.
* lib/mi-support.exp (mi_load_shlibs): Likewise.
The getauxval code was wrongly included in code area only compiled for
gdbserver. Move it to a #ifdef IN_PROCESS_AGENT area that already
contains lots of IPA-only code.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* tracepoint.c (getauxval): Move to #ifdef IN_PROCESS_AGENT.
These files need AT_PHDR, which is defined in elf.h. If HAVE_GETAUXVAL
is set, it's implicitely included by sys/auxv.h. Include it manually
for the opposite case.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-aarch64-ipa.c: Add <elf.h> include.
* linux-ppc-ipa.c: Add <elf.h> include.
* linux-s390-ipa.c: Add <elf.h> include.
These were introduced by 1cda151268
and a13c46966d . One is a simple
missing cast, the other is const usage on global function pointers
exported from IPA: in C++, consts are static, and thus won't be
exported from the DSO (the build error was because of non-applicable
visibility("default")).
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* tracepoint.c (gdb_collect_ptr): Remove const qualifier.
(get_raw_reg_ptr): Likewise.
(get_trace_state_variable_value_ptr): Likewise.
(set_trace_state_variable_value_ptr): Likewise.

Targets may have various requirements on the required location of the jump
pad area. Currently IPA allocates it at the lowest possible address,
so that it is reachable by branches from the executable. However, this
fails on powerpc, which has executable link address (0x10000000) much
larger than branch reach (+/- 32MiB).
This makes jump pad buffer allocation a target hook instead. The current
implementations are as follows:
- i386 and s390: Branches can reach anywhere, so just mmap it. This
avoids the linear search dance.
- x86_64: Branches have +/-2GiB of reach, and executable is loaded low,
so just call mmap with MAP_32BIT. Likewise avoids the linear search.
- aarch64: Branches have +-128MiB of reach, executable loaded at 4MiB.
Do a linear search from 4MiB-size downwards to page_size.
- s390x: Branches have +-4GiB of reach, executable loaded at 2GiB.
Do like on aarch64.

On powerpc64, qSymbol for a function returns the function code address,
and not the descriptor address. Since we emit code calling gdb_collect
and some other functions, we need the descriptor (no way to know the
proper TOC address without it). To get the descriptor address, make
global function pointer variables in the IPA pointing to the relevant
functions and read them instead of asking for them directly via qSymbol.

On powerpc64, qSymbol query may require gdb to read a function
descriptor, sending a vFile packet to gdbserver. Thus, we need
to handle 'v' packet in look_up_one_symbol.
vFile replies may be quite long, and require reallocating own_buf.
Since handle_v_requests assumes the buffer is the static global own_buf
from server.c and reallocates it, we need to make own_buf global and
use it from look_up_one_symbol instead of using our own auto variable.
I've also done the same change in relocate_instruction, just in case.
On gdb side, in remote_check_symbols, rs->buf may be clobbered by vFile
handling, yet we need its contents for the reply (the symbol name is
stored there). Allocate a new buffer instead.
This broke fast tracepoints on powerpc64, due to errors in reading IPA
symbols.
