When the command "info registers" (same as "info registers general"),
is issued, _all_ the registers from a tdesc XML are printed. This
includes the registers with empty register groups (set as "") which
are supposed to be only printed by "info registers all" (or "info
all-registers").
This bug got introduced after all the overhauls that the
tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p() went through. You can see that the
logic of tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p() did NOT remain the same after
all those changes:
git difftool c9c895b9666..HEAD -- gdb/target-descriptions.c
With the current implementation, when the reg->group is an empty
string, this function returns -1, while in the working revision
(c9c895b966), it returned 0. This patch makes sure that the 0 is
returned again.
The old implementation of tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p() returned
-1 when "reggroup" was set to "all_reggroups" at line 4 below:
1 tdesc_register_reggroup_p (...)
2 {
3 ...
4 ret = tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p (gdbarch, regno, reggroup);
5 if (ret != -1)
6 return ret;
7
8 return default_register_reggroup_p (gdbarch, regno, reggroup);
9 }
As a result, the execution continued at line 8 and the
default_register_reggroup_p(..., reggroup=all_reggroups) would
return 1. However, with the current implementation of
tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p() that allows checking against any
arbitrary group name, it returns 0 when comparing the "reg->group"
against the string "all" which is the group name for "all_reggroups".
I have added a special check to cover this case and
"info all-registers" works as expected.

* target-descriptions.c (tdesc_register_in_reggroup_p): Return 0
when reg->group is empty and reggroup is not.

In TUI mode, if the disassembly output for the program is less than
one screen long, then currently if the user scrolls down until on the
last assembly instruction is displayed and then tries to scroll up
using Page-Up, the display doesn't update - they are stuck viewing the
last line.
If the user tries to scroll up using the Up-Arrow, then the display
scrolls normally.
What is happening is on the Page-Up we ask GDB to scroll backward the
same number of lines as the height of the TUI ASM window. The back
scanner, which looks for a good place to start disassembling, fails to
find a starting address which will provide the requested number of new
lines before we get back to the original starting address (which is
not surprising, our whole program contains less than a screen height
of instructions), as a result the back scanner gives up and returns
the original starting address.
When we scroll with Up-Arrow we only ask the back scanner to find 1
new instruction, which it manages to do, so this scroll works.
The solution here is, when we fail to find enough instructions, to
return the lowest address we did manage to find. This will ensure we
jump to the lowest possible address in the disassembly output.

We alloc, seek and read using section sizes in object files. Fuzzed
objects can have silly sizes, but that's OK if the system supports
memory over-commit. The read fails because we hit EOF and that
usually results in a graceful exit.
But if we memset before the read then the invalid size results in
attempting to write to a huge number of memory pages, and an eventual
Out Of Memory after probably swapping like crazy. So don't memset.
There really isn't a need to clear the section contents anyway. All
bytes are written with a good object file by the read and following
loop converting section index in target order to ELF section header
pointer, and the only untidy bytes are the 4 bytes past the group
flags when pointers are 8 bytes. Those don't matter but the patch
clears them for anyone poking around in a debugger. On error paths
it's as good to free section contents as it is to clear them.
Noticed when looking at PR4110 fourth test case.

Comparison of i.tm.base_opcode against particular but not sufficiently
specific values needs to be accompanied by other qualification. Exclude
VEX and alike encodings here, and also exclude all forms of prefixes
explicitly specified in the opcodes table. While using @GOT with such
insns may not be very useful, it also isn't with e.g. ADC and SBB, yet
these get explicitly listed in comments as supported.

of @option which apparently newer makeinfo tolerates, but older ones
reject. Drop the unnecessary (a per all other uses of @option) blank.

To quote from the PE specification [1]:
"The presence of an entry of type IMAGE_DEBUG_TYPE_REPRO indicates the
PE file is built in a way to achieve determinism or reproducibility. If
the input does not change, the output PE file is guaranteed to be
bit-for-bit identical no matter when or where the PE is produced.
Various date/time stamp fields in the PE file are filled with part or
all the bits from a calculated hash value that uses PE file content as
input, and therefore no longer represent the actual date and time when a
PE file or related specific data within the PE is produced. The raw data
of this debug entry may be empty, or may contain a calculated hash value
preceded by a four-byte value that represents the hash value length."

While vendors agree about default operand size (64 bits) and hence
unavilability of a 32-bit form, AMD honors a 16-bit operand size
override (0x66) while Intel doesn't.
Other than near returns these default to 32-bit operand size, and hence
it isn't really unlikely that 64-bit forms are meant. Hence these should
have disambiguating suffixes. In Intel mode, however, don't error in
these cases unconditionally - MASM accepts these without suffix _and_
without warning.
- 64-bit CALL permitting just a single operand size doesn't need it.
- FLDENV et al should never have had it.
It remains suspicious that a number of 64-bit only insns continue to
have the attribute, despite this being intended for .code16gcc handling
only.
The patch also fixes a case where libopcodes built for a 64-bit
bfd_vma may print different results to libopcodes built for a 32-bit
bfd_vma.

While testing a GCC 10 build of our git HEAD, Sergio noticed an error
triggered by -Werror-stringop on
infcmd.c:construct_inferior_arguments. One of the things the function
does is calculate the length of the string that will hold the
inferior's arguments. GCC warns us that 'length' can be 0, which can
lead to undesired behaviour:
../../gdb/infcmd.c: In function 'char* construct_inferior_arguments(int, char**)':
../../gdb/infcmd.c:369:17: error: writing 1 byte into a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
369 | result[0] = '\0';
| ~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~
../../gdb/infcmd.c:368:33: note: at offset 0 to an object with size 0 allocated by 'xmalloc' here
368 | result = (char *) xmalloc (length);
| ~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~
The solution here is to assert that 'argc' is greater than 0 on entry,
which makes GCC understand that the loops always run at least once,
and thus 'length' is always > 0.
Tested by rebuilding.

It was reported to me that program breakpoints (permanent ones inserted into
the code itself) other than the one GDB uses for AArch64 (0xd4200000) do not
generate visible stops when continuing, and GDB will continue spinning
infinitely.
This happens because GDB, upon hitting one of those program breakpoints, thinks
the SIGTRAP came from a delayed breakpoint hit...

To the user it appears GDB has gone into an infinite loop, interruptible only

Also, windbg seems to use a different variation of AArch64 breakpoint compared
to GDB. This causes problems when debugging Windows on ARM binaries, when
program breakpoints are being used.
The proposed patch creates a new gdbarch method (gdbarch_program_breakpoint_here_p)
that tells GDB whether the underlying instruction is a breakpoint instruction
or not.
This is more general than only checking for the instruction GDB uses as
breakpoint.
The existing logic is still preserved for targets that do not implement this
new gdbarch method.
The end result is like so:
(gdb) x/i $pc
=> 0x4005c0 <problem_function>: brk #0x90f
(gdb) c

There exist expected failures in the pass-by-ref.exp and
pass-by-ref-2.exp tests based on the GCC and Clang version.
* GCC version <= 6 and Clang do not emit DW_AT_deleted and
DW_AT_defaulted.
* Clang version >= 7 emits DW_AT_calling_convention, which helps the
debugger make the right calling convention decision in some cases
despite lacking the 'defaulted' and 'deleted' attributes.
Mark the related tests as XFAIL based on the compiler version.
Tested on X86_64 using GCC 5.5.0, 6.5.0, 7.4.0, 8.3.0, 9.2.1;
and Clang 5.0.1, 6.0.0, 7.0.0, 8.0.0, 9.0.1, 10.0.0.

I ran into:
...
Thread 3.1 "watchpoint-fork" hit Breakpoint 3, marker () at \
watchpoint-fork-mt.c:42^M
42 }^M
(gdb) parent2: 1945^M
FAIL: gdb.threads/watchpoint-fork.exp: child: multithreaded: breakpoint (A) \
after the second fork (timeout)
...
The problem is that the FAILing gdb_test expects '(gdb) ' to be the last thing
printed, but the inferior prints something after that.
A similar FAIL is described in the sources in watchpoint-fork-parent.c:
...
printf ("child%d: %d\n", nr, (int) getpid ());
/* Delay to get both the "child%d" and "parent%d" message printed
without a race breaking expect by its endless wait on `$gdb_prompt$':
Breakpoint 3, marker () at watchpoint-fork.c:33
33 }
(gdb) parent2: 14223 */
i = sleep (1);
...
I noticed that while the executables print output, the output is not verified in
the test-case, so it's merely debug output.
Fix this by:
- guarding the prints in the executables (as well as related
sleep and setbuf calls) with #if DEBUG, and
- compiling by default with DEBUG=0.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2020-01-29 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>

The address was written as a long value, but long is always a 32bit value
on Windows, which lead to truncated addresses.
The solution was to use paddress instead.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2020-01-28 Hannes Domani <ssbssa@yahoo.de>
* server.c (handle_qxfer_libraries): Write segment-address with
paddress.
Maciej reported a problem found by his RISC-V gdbserver port.
warning: while parsing target description (at line 4): Target description specified unknown architecture "riscv:rv64id"
warning: Could not load XML target description; ignoring
We only have two arches defined, riscv:rv32 and riscv:rv64. Both bfd and
gdb are creating arch strings that have extension letters added to the base
architecture. The bfd_default_scan function requires an exact match, so
these strings fail to map to a bfd_arch. I think we should ignore the
extension letters in a RISC-V specific scan function.

* cpu-riscv.c (riscv_scan): New.
(N): Change bfd_default_scan to riscv_scan.

New in v3:
- Verify if the syscall number matches what is expected for the target.
- Used gdb_assert for one more check.
New in v2:
- Set initial values to -1 instead of 0.
- Rewrote RE to prevent unexpected matching when parsing one character at a
time.
- Used gdb_assert for an additional check.
- Validated with check-read1
There are a couple problems with this test.
First
--
gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp records the address of a syscall instruction
within fork/vfork/clone functions and also the address of the instruction
after that syscall instruction.
It uses these couples addresses to make sure we stepped over a syscall
instruction (fork/vfork/clone events) correctly.
The way the test fetches the addresses of the instructions is by stepi-ing
its way through the fork/vfork/clone functions until it finds a match for
a syscall. Then it stepi's once again to get the address of the next
instruction.
This assumes that stepi-ing over a syscall is working correctly and landing
in the right PC. This is not the case for AArch64/Linux, where we're
landing a couple instructions after the syscall in some cases.
The following patch lets the test execute as before, but adds a new instruction
address check using the x command as opposed to stepi.
I didn't want to change how the test works since we may also be
interested in checking if stepi-ing over the syscall under different
conditions (displaced stepping on/off) yields the same results. I don't
feel strongly about this, so i'm OK with changing how we compare PC's for
the entire test if folks decide it is reasonable.
Second
--
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=off: continue to vfork (3rd time) (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=off: continue to syscall insn vfork (the program is no longer running)
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=off: single step over vfork (the program is no longer running)
Depending on the glibc version we may have different code generated for the
fork/vfork/clone functions.
I ran into the situation where vfork for newer glibc's on AArch64/Linux is
very short, so "break vfork" will put a breakpoint right at the syscall
instruction, which is something the testcase isn't expecting (a off-by-1
of sorts).
The patch adds extra code to handle this case. If the test detects we're
already sitting at a syscall instruction, it records the address and moves
on to record the address after that particular instruction.
Another measure is to "break *$syscall" instead of "break $syscall". That
guarantees we're stopping at the first instruction of the syscall function,
if it ever happens that the syscall instruction is the first instruction of
those functions.
With these changes i can fix some failures for aarch64-linux-gnu and also
expose the problems i've reported here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-12/msg01071.html
These tests now fail for aarch64-linux-gnu (patch for this is going through
reviews):
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=off: pc after stepi matches insn addr after syscall
FAIL: gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: vfork: displaced=on: pc after stepi matches insn addr after syscall
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2020-01-27 Luis Machado <luis.machado@linaro.org>
* gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp (setup): Check if we're already
sitting at a syscall instruction when we hit the syscall function's
breakpoint.
Check PC against one obtained with the x command.
Validate syscall number.
(step_over_syscall): Don't continue to the syscall instruction if
we're already there.
