indicates internal overflow due to GDB being built without MPFR
support, explicitly state this in the failure message.

The addressable signed 32-bit range for n64 MIPS `.got.plt' references
is from 0xffffffff7fff8000 to 0x7fff7fff, due to how the composition of
an LUI and an LD instruction works for address calculation in the 64-bit
addressing mode, such as when CP0.Status.UX=1.
We currently have a range check in `mips_finish_exec_plt', however it is
not correct as it verifies that the `.got.plt' start address referred is
between 0xffffffff80000000 and 0x7fffffff. It is also implemented as an
assertion rather than a proper error message despite that the situation
can be triggered by user input. Additionally there is no check made for
individual `.got.plt' entries referred even though they can be out of
range while the `.got.plt' start address is not.
Fix all these problems and use the correct range for the check, limiting
it to n64 output files, and then issue a proper error message both in
`mips_finish_exec_plt' and in `_bfd_mips_elf_finish_dynamic_symbol',
suggesting the use of the `-Ttext-segment=...' option that will often
work and with the default linker scripts in particular. Add suitable
tests covering boundary cases.

FAIL: DT_TEXTREL map file warning
introduced with commit 63c1f59d66 ("readonly_dynrelocs"), coming from
the lack of a "dynamic relocation against `foo' in read-only section
`.rodata'" warning message produced.
The cause of the failure is that for sections which have dynamic
relocations attached the MIPS backend sets SHF_WRITE, in
`mips_elf_create_dynamic_relocation', yielding:
$ readelf -S textrel.so | grep rodata
[ 8] .rodata PROGBITS 00000254 000254 000004 00 WA 0 0 1
$
so the section is read/write and therefore there is nothing to warn
about.
This arrangement came from commit 7403cb6305 ("PATCH for N32 ABI"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/1999-q2/msg00375.html>, i.e. for all
practical purposes it has been there since forever, and therefore it can
be considered a part of the ABI and the test case irrelevant for MIPS
targets.
We don't have a clean way to request UNSUPPORTED result, which would be
the most appropriate here, so just XFAIL the test instead.
ld/
* testsuite/ld-elf/shared.exp: XFAIL DT_TEXTREL map file warning
test for `mips*-*-*'.
When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 5:
Rename .texinfo files to .texi.
Problem 6:
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 6:
Remove the hack at the bottom of doc/Makefile.am and use
the info-in-builddir automake option.
Problem 7:
doc/Makefile.am:35: error: required file '../texinfo.tex' not found
doc/Makefile.am:35: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'texinfo.tex'
Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.

Compiling with GCC 8.1 shows this warning:
gdb/minsyms.c: In function 'bound_minimal_symbol lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc_section(CORE_ADDR, obj_section*, lookup_msym_prefer)':
gdb/minsyms.c:825:40: warning: 'want_type' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
&& MSYMBOL_TYPE (&msymbol[hi]) != want_type
That warning is a false positive, because the switch that converts
enum lookup_msym_prefer values to enum enum minimal_symbol_type values
has a case for every lookup_msym_prefer enumerator:
switch (prefer)
{
case lookup_msym_prefer::TEXT:
want_type = mst_text;
break;
case lookup_msym_prefer::TRAMPOLINE:
want_type = mst_solib_trampoline;
break;
case lookup_msym_prefer::GNU_IFUNC:
want_type = mst_text_gnu_ifunc;
break;
}
The problem is that GCC assumes that enum variables may hold values
other than the named enumerators (like e.g., "lookup_msym_prefer
prefer = (lookup_msym_prefer) 10;").
Rework the code a bit, adding a gdb_assert to make it explicit to the
compiler that want_type is initialized in all normal-return paths.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* minsyms.c (msym_prefer_to_msym_type): New, factored out from ...
(lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc_section): ... here with
gdb_assert_not_reached added.
Currently, gdb.gdb/selftest.exp fails if you build GDB with
optimization (-O2, etc.).
The reason is that after setting a breakpoint in captured_main, we
stop at:
...
Breakpoint 1, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
...
while selftest_setup expects a stop at captured_main.
Here, captured_main_1 has been inlined into captured_main, and
captured_main has been inlined into gdb_main:
...
$ nm ./build/gdb/gdb | egrep ' [tT] .*captured_main|gdb_main' | c++filt
000000000061b950 T gdb_main(captured_main_args*)
...
Indeed, the two inlined functions show up in the backtrace:
...
(gdb) bt
#0 captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at main.c:492
#1 captured_main (data=<optimized out>) at main.c:1147
#2 gdb_main (args=args@entry=0x7fffffffdb80) at main.c:1173
#3 0x000000000040fea5 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>)
at gdb.c:32
...
We're now stopping at captured_main_1 because commit ddfe970e6b
("Don't elide all inlined frames") makes GDB present a stop at the
innermost inlined frame if the program stopped by a user breakpoint.
Now, the selftest.exp testcase explicitly asks to stop at
"captured_main", not "captured_main_1", so I'm thinking that it's
GDB'S behavior that should be improved. That is what this commit
does, by only showing a stop at an inline frame if the user breakpoint
was set in that frame's block.
Before this commit:
(top-gdb) b captured_main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x792f99: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 1, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
492 lim_at_start = (char *) sbrk (0);
(top-gdb)
After this commit, we now instead get:
(top-gdb) b captured_main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x791339: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 1, captured_main (data=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:1147
1147 captured_main_1 (context);
(top-gdb)
and:
(top-gdb) b captured_main_1
Breakpoint 2 at 0x791339: file src/gdb/main.c, line 492.
(top-gdb) r
Starting program: build/gdb/gdb
Breakpoint 2, captured_main_1 (context=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/main.c:492
492 lim_at_start = (char *) sbrk (0);
(top-gdb)
Note that both captured_main and captured_main_1 resolved to the same
address, 0x791339. That is necessary to trigger the issue in
question. The gdb.base/inline-break.exp testcase currently does not
exercise that, but the new test added by this commit does. That new
test fails without the GDB fix and passes with the fix. No
regressions on x86-64 GNU/Linux.
While at it, the THIS_PC comparison in stopped_by_user_bp_inline_frame
is basically a nop, so just remove it -- if a software or hardware
breakpoint explains the stop, then it must be that it was installed at
the current PC.

Internal error: non-aggregate type to value_struct_elt_for_reference
In value_struct_elt_for_reference(), need to call check_typedef() on
the aggregate type to handle the case of *curtype being ptr->typedef.
Tested on x86_64-linux. No regressions.
The variable has been removed in c12a508 ("Add client_state struct."),
remove the leftover declaration.

* solib-darwin.c (darwin_current_sos): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
This removes a couple of cleanups by using unique_xmalloc_ptr instead.
These two changes are combined because the two functions are very
similar.

* solib-frv.c (frv_relocate_main_executable): Use

* solib-dsbt.c (dsbt_relocate_main_executable): Use
unique_xmalloc_ptr.
This changes read_string's "buffer" out-parameter to be a
unique_xmalloc_ptr, then updates the users. This allows for the
removal of some cleanups.
I chose unique_xmalloc_ptr rather than byte_vector here due to the way
Guile unwinding seems to work.

While working on the parser code, I noticed that yyerror is exported
from each parser. It is used by this code in parse.c:
TRY
{
if (lang->la_parser (&ps))
lang->la_error (NULL);
}
However, it seems to me that la_error will never be called here,
because in every case, la_parser throws an exception on error -- each
implementation of yyerror just calls error.
So, this patch removes la_error and makes all the yyerror functions
static. This is handy primarily because it makes it simpler to make
the expression parsers pure.

At the moment, bp_inlined_func.exp passes for a combined current gcc and
gdb-binutils repos build but fails for a build with system gcc (7.3.1) and
ld (2.29.1).
It checks for 4 breakpoints on read_small:
...
gdb_test "break read_small" \
"Breakpoint $decimal at $hex: read_small\\. \\(4 locations\\)" \
"set breakpoint at read_small"
...
and fails because it gets 5 breakpoint locations instead:
...
(gdb) break read_small
Breakpoint 2 at 0x401f9a: read_small. (5 locations)
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/bp_inlined_func.exp: set breakpoint at read_small
...
The 4 expected breakpoint locations are inlined versions of read_small, and
the 5th breakpoint location has this address:
...
(gdb) info breakpoint
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
1.1 y 0x0000000000401f9a in b.read_small
at bp_inlined_func/b.adb:20
...
which is the read_small function itself:
...
(gdb) x 0x0000000000401f9a
0x401f9a <b__read_small+4>: 0x22f8058b
...
This patch updates the test to allow 5 breakpoint locations.
Tested on the configurations mentioned above, on x86_64.

This patch fixes an issue where GDB would sometimes hang when
attaching to a multi-threaded process. This issue was especially
likely to trigger if the machine (running the inferior) was under
load.
In summary, the problem is an imbalance between two functions in
linux-nat.c, stop_callback and stop_wait_callback. In stop_callback
we send SIGSTOP to a thread, but _only_ if the thread is not already
stopped, and if it is not signalled, which means it should stop soon.
In stop_wait_callback we wait for the SIGSTOP to arrive, however, we
are aware that the thread might have been signalled for some other
reason, and so if a signal other than SIGSTOP causes the thread to
stop then we stash that signal away so it can be reported back later.
If we get a SIGSTOP then this is discarded, after all, this signal was
sent from stop_callback. Except that this might not be the case, it
could be that SIGSTOP was sent to a thread from elsewhere in GDB, in
which case we would not have sent another SIGSTOP from stop_callback
and the SIGSTOP received in stop_wait_callback should not be ignored.
Below I've laid out the exact sequence of events that I saw that lead
me to track down the above diagnosis.
After attaching to the inferior GDB sends a SIGSTOP to all of the
threads and then returns to the event loop waiting for interesting
things to happen.
Eventually the first target event is detected (this will be the first
SIGSTOP arriving) and GDB calls inferior_event_handler which calls
fetch_inferior_event. Inside fetch_inferior_event GDB calls
do_target_wait which calls target_wait to find a thread with an event.
The target_wait call ends up in linux_nat_wait_1, which first checks
to see if any threads already have stashed stop events to report, and
if there are none then we enter a loop fetching as many events as
possible out of the kernel. This event fetching is non-blocking, and
we give up once the kernel has no more events ready to give us.
All of the events from the kernel are passed through
linux_nat_filter_event which stashes the wait status for all of the
threads that reported a SIGSTOP, these will be returned by future
calls to linux_nat_wait_1.
Lets assume for a moment that we've attached to a multi-threaded
inferior, and that all but one thread has reported its stop during the
initial wait call in linux_nat_wait_1. The other thread will be
reporting a SIGSTOP, but the kernel has not yet managed to deliver
that signal to GDB before GDB gave up waiting and continued handling
the events it already had. GDB selects one of the threads that has
reported a SIGSTOP and passes this thread ID back to
fetch_inferior_event.
To handle the thread's SIGSTOP, GDB calls handle_signal_stop, which
calls stop_all_threads, this calls wait_one, which in turn calls
target_wait.
The first call to target_wait at this point will result in a stashed
wait status being returned, at which point we call setup_inferior.
The call to setup_inferior leads to a call into try_thread_db_load_1
which results in a call to linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps. This in turn
calls stop_callback on each thread followed by stop_wait_callback on
each thread.
We're now ready to make the mistake. In stop_callback we see that our
problem thread is not stopped, but is signalled, so it should stop
soon. As a result we don't send another SIGSTOP.
We then enter stop_wait_callback, eventually the problem thread stops
with SIGSTOP which we _incorrectly_ assume came from stop_callback,
and we discard.
Once stop_wait_callback has done its damage we return from
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, finish in try_thread_db_load_1, and
eventually unwind back to the call to setup_inferior in
stop_all_threads. GDB now loops around, and performs another
target_wait to get the next event from the inferior.
The target_wait calls causes us to once again reach linux_nat_wait_1,
and we pass through some code that calls resume_stopped_resumed_lwps.
This allows GDB to resume threads that are physically stopped, but
which GDB doesn't see any good reason for the thread to remain
stopped. In our case, the problem thread which had its SIGSTOP
discarded is stopped, but doesn't have a stashed wait status to
report, and so GDB sets the thread going again.
We are now stuck waiting for an event on the problem thread that might
never arrive.
When considering how to write a test for this bug I struggled. The
issue was only spotted _randomly_ when a machine was heavily loaded
with many multi-threaded applications, and GDB was being attached (by
script) to all of these applications in parallel. In one reproducer I
required around 5 applications each of 5 threads per machine core in
order to reproduce the bug 2 out of 3 times.
What we really want to do though is simulate the kernel being slow to
report events through waitpid during the initial attach. The solution
I came up with was to write an LD_PRELOAD library that intercepts
(some) waitpid calls and rate limits them to one per-second. Any more
than that simply return 0 indicating there's no event available.
Obviously this can only be applied to waitpid calls that have the
WNOHANG flag set.
Unfortunately, once you ignore a waitpid call GDB can get a bit stuck.
Usually, once the kernel has made a child status available to waitpid
GDB will be sent a SIGCHLD signal. However, if the kernel makes 5
child statuses available but, due to the preload library we only
collect one of them, then the kernel will not send any further SIGCHLD
signals, and so, when GDB, thinking that the remaining statuses have
not yet arrived sits waiting for a SIGCHLD it will be disappointed.
The solution, implemented within the preload library, is that, when we
hold back a waitpid result from GDB we spawn a new thread. This
thread delays for a short period, and then sends GDB a SIGCHLD. This
causes GDB to retry the waitpid, at which point sufficient time has
passed and our library allows the waitpid call to complete.
