This patch removes some manual reference count manipulation by
changing last_examine_value to be a value_ref_ptr and then updating
the users.

* printcmd.c (last_examine_address): Change type to
value_ref_ptr.
(do_examine, x_command): Update.
struct value is internally reference counted and so, while it also has
some ownership rules unique to it, it makes sense to use a gdb_ref_ptr
when managing it automatically.
This patch removes the existing unique_ptr specialization in favor of
a reference-counted pointer. It also introduces two other
clarifications:
1. Rename value_free to value_decref, which I think is more in line
with what the function actually does; and
2. Change release_value to return a gdb_ref_ptr. This change allows
us to remove the confusing release_value_or_incref function,
primarily by making it much simpler to reason about the result of
release_value.

This is a command we somehow forgot to contribute at the time the Ada
language was first contributed to the FSF. This command allows
the user to change the maximum size we allow when reading memory
from dynamic objects (the default is 65536 bytes).
At the moment, this limit is only used by Ada, and so the implementation
is kept inside ada-lang.c. However, it is conceivable that other language
might want to use it also to handle the same kind of issues; for instance,
this might be useful when handling dynamic types in C. So the name
of the setting was made language-neutral, to allow for this.
Note that an alias for "set var" needs to be introduced as well.
We are not adding a test for that, since this is a feature that is
already exercized by numerous existing tests.

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.

This adds target_float_to_string and target_float_from_string,

Existing users of those routines are changed to use the new

both binary and decimal FP).
In addition, two other places are changes to use target_float_from_string:
- define_symbol in stabsread.c, when parsing a floating-point literal
from stabs debug info
- gdbarch-selftest.c when initializing a target format values (to
eliminate use of DOUBLEST there).

This patch adds support for handling format strings to both
floatformat_to_string and decimal_to_string, and then uses
those routines to implement ui_printf formatted printing.
There is already a subroutine printf_decfloat that ui_printf uses to
handle decimal FP. This is renamed to printf_floating and updated
to handle both binary and decimal FP. This includes the following
set of changes:
- printf_decfloat currently parses the format string again to determine
the intended target format. This seems superfluous since the common
parsing code in parse_format_string already did this, but then did
not pass the result on to its users. Fixed by splitting the decfloat_arg
argument class into three distinct classes, and passing them through.
- Now we can rename printf_decfloat to printf_floating and also call it
for the argument classes representing binary FP types.
- The code will now use the argclass to detect the type the value should
be printed at, and converts the input value to this type if necessary.
To remain compatible with current behavior, for binary FP the code
instead tries to re-interpret the input value as a FP type of the
same size if that exists. (Maybe this behavior is more confusing
than useful -- but this can be changed later if we want to ...)
- Finally, we can use floatformat_to_string / decimal_to_string passing
the format string to perform the formatted output using the desired
target FP type.
Note that we no longer generate different code depending on whether or not
the host supports "long double" -- this check is obsolete anyway since C++11
mandates "long double", and in any case a %lg format string is intended to
refer to the *target* long double type, not the host version.
Note also that formatted printing of DFP numbers may not work correctly,
since it attempts to use the host printf to do so (and makes unwarranted
assumptions about the host ABI while doing so!). This is no change to
the current behavior -- I simply moved the code from printf_decfloat to
the decimal_to_string routine in dfp.c. If we want to fix it in the
future, that is a more appropriate place anyway.

The print_floating routine currently makes a lot of assumptions about host
and target floating point formats. This patch cleans up many of those.
One problem is that print_floating may currently be called with types
that are not actually floating-point types, and it tries hard to output
those as floating-point values anyway. However, there is only one single
caller of print_floating where this can ever happen: print_scalar_formatted.
And in fact, it is much simpler to handle the case where the value to be
printed is not already of floating-point type right there.
So this patch changes print_scalar_formatted to handle the 'f' format
as follows:
- If the value to be printed is already of floating-point type, just
call print_floating on it.
- Otherwise, if there is a standard target floating-point type of
the same size as the value, call print_floating using that type.
- Otherwise, just print the value as if the 'f' format had not been
specified at all.
This has the overall effect to printing everything the same way as
the old code did, but is overall a lot simpler. (Also, it would
allow us to change the above strategy more easily, if that might
be a more intuitive user interface. For example, in the third
case above, maybe an error would be more appropriate?)
Given that change, print_floating can become much simpler. In particular,
we now always have a floating-point format that we can consult. This
means we can use the floating-point format to programmatically determine
the number of digits necessary to print the value.
The current code uses a hard-coded value of 9, 17, or 35 digits. Note
that this matches the DECIMAL_DIG values for IEEE-32, IEEE-64, and
IEEE-128. (Actually, for IEEE-128 the correct value is 36 -- the 35
seems to be an oversight.) The DECIMAL_DIG value is defined to be
the smallest number so that any number in the target format, when
printed to this number of digits and then scanned back into a binary
floating-point number, will result in the original value.
Now that we always have a FP format, we can just compute the DECIMAL_DIG
value using the formula from the C standard. This will be correct for
*all* FP formats, not just the above list, and it will be correct (as
opposed to current code) if the target formats differ from the host ones.
The patch moves the new logic to a new floatformat_to_string routine
(analogous to the existing decimal_to_string). The print_floating
routine now calls floatformat_to_string or decimal_to_string, making
the separate print_decimal_floating and generic_val_print_decfloat routines
unnecessary.

This cleans up a number of interfaces in dfp.c / dfp.h. Specifically:
- The decimal_from_string / decimal_to_string routines are C++-ified
to operate on std::string instead of character buffers. In the
decimal_from_string, the boolean return value now actually is bool
instead of an int.
- The decimal_from_integral and decimal_from_doublest routines take
an struct value as input. This is not really appropriate at the low
level the DFP routines sit, so this replaced them with new routines
decimal_from_longest / decimal_from_ulongest / decimal_from_doublest
that operate on contents instead.
- To mirror the decimal_from_[u]longest, a new decimal_to_longest
routine is added as well, which can be used in unpack_long to
avoid an unnecessary conversion via DOUBLEST.
Note that the decimal_from_longest / decimal_from_ulongest routines
are actually more powerful than decimal_from_integral: the old routine
would only accept integer *types* of at most four bytes size, while
the new routines accept all integer *values* that fit in an [u]int32_t,
no matter which type they came from. The DFP tests are updated to
allow for this larger range of integers that can be converted.

This renames a few functions -- skip_spaces_const,

This makes future const fixes simpler by reducing the number of lines
that must be changed. I think it is also not any less clear, as all
these functions have the same interface as their non-const versions by
design. Furthermore there's an example of using an overload in-tree
already, namely check_for_argument.
This patch was largely created using some perl one-liners; then a few
fixes were applied by hand.

PR gdb/21675 points out a few regressions in scalar printing.
One type of regression is due to not carrying over the old handling of
floating point printing -- where a format like "/d" causes a floating
point number to first be cast to a signed integer. This patch restores
this behavior.
The other regression is a longstanding bug in print_octal_chars: one of
the constants was wrong. This patch fixes the constant and adds static
asserts to help catch this sort of error.

This commit eliminates make_cleanup_obstack_free, replacing it with a
new auto_obstack type that inherits obstack to add cdtors.
These changes in the parsers may not be obvious:
- obstack_init (&name_obstack);
- make_cleanup_obstack_free (&name_obstack);
+ name_obstack.clear ();
Here, the 'name_obstack' variable is a global. The change means that
the obstack's contents from a previous parse will stay around until
the next parsing starts. I.e., memory won't be reclaimed until then.
I don't think that's a problem, these objects don't really grow much
at all.
The other option I tried was to add a separate type that is like
auto_obstack but manages an external obstack, just for those cases. I
like the current approach better as that other approach adds more
boilerplate and yet another type to learn.

In some cases we've been replacing heap-allocated gdb_byte buffers
managed with xmalloc/make_cleanup(xfree) with gdb::vector<gdb_byte>.
That usually pessimizes the code a little bit because std::vector
value-initializes elements (which for gdb_byte means
zero-initialization), while if you're creating a temporary buffer,
you're most certaintly going to fill it in with some data. An
alternative is to use
unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
but it looks like that's not very popular.
Recently, a use of obstacks in dwarf2read.c was replaced with
std::vector<gdb_byte> and that as well introduced a pessimization for
always memsetting the buffer when it's garanteed that the zeros will
be overwritten immediately. (see dwarf2read.c change in this patch to
find it.)
So here's a different take at addressing this issue "by design":
#1 - Introduce default_init_allocator<T>
I.e., a custom allocator that does default construction using default
initialization, meaning, no more zero initialization. That's the
default_init_allocation<T> class added in this patch.
See "Notes" at
<http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/vector/resize>.
#2 - Introduce def_vector<T>
I.e., a convenience typedef, because typing the allocator is annoying:
using def_vector<T> = std::vector<T, gdb::default_init_allocator<T>>;
#3 - Introduce byte_vector
Because gdb_byte vectors will be the common thing, add a convenience
"byte_vector" typedef:
using byte_vector = def_vector<gdb_byte>;
which is really the same as:
std::vector<gdb_byte, gdb::default_init_allocator<gdb_byte>>;
The intent then is to make "gdb::byte_vector" be the go-to for dynamic
byte buffers. So the less friction, the better.
#4 - Adjust current code to use it.
To set the example going forward. Replace std::vector uses and also
unique_ptr<byte[]> uses.
One nice thing is that with this allocator, for changes like these:
-std::unique_ptr<byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[some_size]);
+gdb::byte_vector buf (some_size);
fill_with_data (buf.data (), buf.size ());
the generated code is the same as before. I.e., the compiler
de-structures the vector and gets rid of the unused "reserved vs size"
related fields.
The other nice thing is that it's easier to write
gdb::byte_vector buf (size);
than
std::unique_ptr<gdb_byte[]> buf (new gdb_byte[size]);
or even (C++14):
auto buf = std::make_unique<gdb_byte[]> (size); // zero-initializes...
#5 - Suggest s/std::vector<gdb_byte>/gdb::byte_vector/ going forward.
Note that this commit actually fixes a couple of bugs where the current
code is incorrectly using "std::vector::reserve(new_size)" and then
accessing the vector's internal buffer beyond the vector's size: see
dwarf2loc.c and charset.c. That's undefined behavior and may trigger
debug mode assertion failures. With default_init_allocator,
"resize()" behaves like "reserve()" performance wise, in that it
leaves new elements with unspecified values, but, it does that safely
without triggering undefined behavior when you access those values.

* printcmd.c (find_instruction_backward): Use std::vector.
This patch starts from the desire to eliminate
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete, but then goes beyond. It makes ui_file &
friends a real C++ class hierarchy, and switches temporary
ui_file-like objects to stack-based allocation.
- mem_fileopen -> string_file
mem_fileopen is replaced with a new string_file class that is treated
as a value class created on the stack. This alone eliminates most
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete calls, and, simplifies code a whole lot
(diffstat shows around 1k loc dropped.)
string_file's internal buffer is a std::string, thus the "string" in
the name. This simplifies the implementation much, compared to
mem_fileopen, which managed growing its internal buffer manually.
- ui_file_as_string, ui_file_strdup, ui_file_obsavestring all gone
The new string_file class has a string() method that provides direct
writable access to the internal std::string buffer. This replaced
ui_file_as_string, which forced a copy of the same data the stream had
inside. With direct access via a writable reference, we can instead
move the string out of the string_stream, avoiding deep string
copying.
Related, ui_file_xstrdup calls are replaced with xstrdup'ping the
stream's string, and ui_file_obsavestring is replaced by
obstack_copy0.
With all those out of the way, getting rid of the weird ui_file_put
mechanism was possible.
- New ui_file::printf, ui_file::puts, etc. methods
These simplify / clarify client code. I considered splitting
client-code changes, like these, e.g.:
- stb = mem_fileopen ();
- fprintf_unfiltered (stb, "%s%s%s",
- _("The valid values are:\n"),
- regdesc,
- _("The default is \"std\"."));
+ string_file stb;
+ stb.printf ("%s%s%s",
+ _("The valid values are:\n"),
+ regdesc,
+ _("The default is \"std\"."));
In two steps, with the first step leaving fprintf_unfiltered (etc.)
calls in place, and only afterwards do a pass to change all those to
call stb.printf etc.. I didn't do that split, because (when I tried),
it turned out to be pointless make-work: the first pass would have to
touch the fprintf_unfiltered line anyway, to replace "stb" with
"&stb".
- gdb_fopen replaced with stack-based objects
This avoids the need for cleanups or unique_ptr's. I.e., this:
struct ui_file *file = gdb_fopen (filename, "w");
if (filename == NULL)
perror_with_name (filename);
cleanups = make_cleanup_ui_file_delete (file);
// use file.
do_cleanups (cleanups);
is replaced with this:
stdio_file file;
if (!file.open (filename, "w"))
perror_with_name (filename);
// use file.
- odd contorsions in null_file_write / null_file_fputs around when to
call to_fputs / to_write eliminated.
- Global null_stream object
A few places that were allocating a ui_file in order to print to
"nowhere" are adjusted to instead refer to a new 'null_stream' global
stream.
- TUI's tui_sfileopen eliminated. TUI's ui_file much simplified
The TUI's ui_file was serving a dual purpose. It supported being used
as string buffer, and supported being backed by a stdio FILE. The
string buffer part is gone, replaced by using of string_file. The
'FILE *' support is now much simplified, by making the TUI's ui_file
inherit from stdio_file.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which

gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
It'd be handy to be able to iterate over command arguments in
user-defined commands, in order to support optional arguments
($arg0..$argN).
I thought I could make it work with "eval", but alas, it doesn't work
currently. E.g., with:
define test
set $i = 0
while $i < $argc
eval "print $arg%d", $i
set $i = $i + 1
end
end
we get:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = void
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = void
$3 = void
$4 = void
(gdb)
The problem is that "eval" doesn't do user-defined command arguments
substitution after expanding its own argument. This patch fixes that,
which makes the example above work:
(gdb) test 1
$1 = 1
(gdb) test 1 2 3
$2 = 1
$3 = 2
$4 = 3
(gdb)
New test included, similar the above, but also exercises expanding
$argc.
I think this is likely to simplify many scripts out there, so I'm
adding an example to the manual and mentioning it in NEWS as well.

This patch makes parse_expression and friends return a unique_ptr
instead of raw pointer [1]:
typedef gdb::unique_malloc_ptr<expression> expression_up;
and then adjusts the codebase throughout to stop using cleanups to
manage lifetime of expression pointers.
Whenever I found a structure owning an expression pointer, I made it
store a unique_ptr instead of a raw pointer, which then requires using
new/delete of the holding structure, instead of XNEW/xfree.
[1] - I'd like to set the rule that types named with an "_up" suffix
are unique_ptr typedefs.
Note I used gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr instead of gdb::unique_ptr, simply
because we still use xmalloc instead of new to allocate expression
objects. Once that's changed, all we need to do is change the
expression_up typedef and the smart pointer will then call delete
instead of xfree.

This patch replaces many (but not all) uses of
make_cleanup_restore_integer with a simple RAII-based template class.
It also removes the similar restore_execution_direction cleanup in
favor of this new class. Subsequent patches will replace other
similar cleanups with this class.
The class is typically instantiated using make_scoped_restore. This
allows for template argument deduction.

This converts tid_range_parser and get_number_or_range to be classes.
The various tid_range_parser_* and get_number_or_range_* functions
become methods on the respective classes. Then it updates the users
to follow.
The rationale for the change is that this provides better
encapsulation. For example, this forced me to think of a better
interface between tid_range_parser and get_number_or_range, since the
former peeked into the latter's internals a bit too much. That ended
up resulting mostly in these two not-just-straight-1-1 changes:
void
-tid_range_parser_skip (struct tid_range_parser *parser)
+tid_range_parser::skip_range ()
{
...
- tid_range_parser_init (parser, parser->range_parser.end_ptr,
- parser->default_inferior);
+ m_range_parser.skip_range ();
+ init (m_range_parser.string (), m_default_inferior);
}
and:
/* If we successfully parsed a thread number or finished parsing a
thread range, switch back to assuming the next TID is
inferior-qualified. */
- if (parser->range_parser.end_ptr == NULL
- || parser->range_parser.string == parser->range_parser.end_ptr)
+ if (!m_range_parser.in_range ())
{
For the same reason (encapsulation), this moves the enum
tid_range_state definition to within the tid_parser class's scope,
since that is private implementation detail.
While at it, switch to use "bool" for booleans.
