When debugging a program using the Ada ravenscar profile, resuming
a program's execution after having switched to a different task
sometimes yields the following error:
(gdb) cont
Continuing.
Cannot execute this command while the target is running.
Use the "interrupt" command to stop the target
and then try again.
In short, the Ravenscar profile is a standardized subset of Ada which
allows tasking (often mapped to threads). We often use it on baremetal
targets where there is no OS support. Thread support is implemented
as a thread target_ops layer. It sits on top of the "remote" layer,
so we can do thread debugging against baremetal targets to which GDB
is connected via "target remote".
What happens, when the user request the program to resume execution,
is the following:
- the ravenscar-thread target_ops layer gets the order to resume
the program's execution. The current thread is not the active
thread in the inferior, and the "remote" layer doesn't know
about that thread anyway. So what we do is (see ravenscar_resume):
+ switch inferior_ptid to the ptid of the actually active thread;
+ ask the layer beneath us to actually do the resume.
- Once that's done, the resuming itself is done. But execute_command
(in top.c) actually does a bit more. More precisely, it unconditionally
checks to see if the language may no longer be matching the current
frame:
check_frame_language_change ();
The problem, here, is that we haven't received the "stop" event
from the inferior, yet. This part will be handled by the event loop,
which is done later. So, checking for the language-change here
doesn't make sense, since we don't really have a frame. In our
case, the error comes from the fact that we end up trying to read
the registers, which causes the error while the remote protocol
is waiting for the event showing the inferior stopped.
This apparently used to work, but it is believed that this was only
accidental. In other words, we had enough information already cached
within GDB that we were able to perform the entire call to
check_frame_language_change without actually querying the target.
On PowerPC targets, this started to fail as a side-effect of a minor
change in the way we get to the regcache during the handling of
software-single-step (which seems fine).
This patch fixes the issue by only calling check_frame_language_change
in cases the inferior isn't running. Otherwise, it skips it, knowing
that the event loop should eventually get to it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* top.c (execute_command): Do not call check_frame_language_change
if the inferior is running.
Tested on x86_64-linux, no regression. Also tested on aarch64-elf,
arm-elf, leon3-elf, and ppc-elf, but using AdaCore's testsuite.
This removes some cleanups from gdb_readline_wrapper by changing the
existing gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup struct to have a constructor and
destructor, and then changing gdb_readline_wrapper to simply
instantiate it on the stack.

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.
Regression tested on the buildbot.

The to_detach target_ops method implementations are currently expected
to work on current_inferior/inferior_ptid. In order to make things more
explicit, and remove some "shadow" parameter passing through globals,
this patch adds an "inferior" parameter to to_detach. Implementations
will be expected to use this instead of relying on the global. However,
to keep things simple, this patch only does the minimum that is
necessary to add the parameter. The following patch gives an example of
how one such implementation would be adapted. If the approach is deemed
good, we can then look into adapting more implementations. Until then,
they'll continue to work as they do currently.

I was looking into adding a parameter to target_detach, and was
wondering what the args parameter was. It seems like in the distant
past, it was possible to specify a signal number when detaching. That
signal was injected in the process before it was detached. There is an
example of code handling this in linux_nat_detach. With today's GDB, I
can't get this to work. Doing "detach 15" (15 == SIGTERM) doesn't work,
because detach is a prefix command and doesn't recognize the sub-command
15. Doing "detach inferiors 15" doesn't work because it expects a list
of inferior id to detach. Therefore, I don't think there's a way of
invoking detach_command with a non-NULL args. I also didn't find any
documentation related to this feature.
I assume that this feature stopped working when detach was made a prefix
command, which is in f73adfeb8b (sorry,
there's no commit title) from 2006. Given that this feature was broken
for such a long time and we haven't heard anything (AFAIK, I did not
find any related bug), I think it's safe to remove it, as well as the
args parameter to target_detach. If someone wants to re-introduce it, I
would suggest rethinking the user interface, and in particular would
suggest using signal name instead of numbers.
I tried to fix all the impacted code, but I might have forgotten some
spots. It shouldn't be hard to fix if that's the case. I also couldn't
build-test everything I changed, especially the nto and solaris stuff.

The STOP_SIGNAL macro was originally added for Convex Unix
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_Computer).
In:
git show 7a67dd45ca1c:gdb/m-convex.h
we see:
~~~
/* Use SIGCONT rather than SIGTSTP because convex Unix occasionally
turkeys SIGTSTP. I think. */
#define STOP_SIGNAL SIGCONT
~~~
That's gdb-3.5, 1990... In gdb/ChangeLog-3.x we see:
~~~
Tue Apr 18 13:43:37 1989 Randall Smith (randy at apple-gunkies.ai.mit.edu)

STOP_SIGNAL).

(command_line_input): SIGTSTP ==>STOP_SIGNAL.
~~~
Support for Convex Unix is long gone, and nothing else overrides
STOP_SIGNAL. So just use SIGTSTP directly, removing a little
obfuscation.
(I don't really understand why we override [1] readline's SIGTSTP
handler (only) when reading scripts (and then fail to restore it
properly, assuming SIG_DFL...), but I'll leave that for another pass.
[1] - Actually, starting with readline 6.3, readline is no longer
installing its handlers while GDB is in control...)

As a first small step to getting rid of doublest.h, this patch removes the
include of "floatformat.h" in "doublest.h". This is actually not needed
for the file itself. A few source files now need to include "floatformat.h"
directly, since they got it indirectly via "doublest.h" and still need it.
In reviewing which files need it, I found a number of files that include
"floatformat.h" directly without actually needing it at all. Similarly,
a number of files include "doublest.h" without needing it. I've also
removed those unnecessary include statements.

Currently we have "current_directory" and "gdb_dirbuf" globals, which
means that we basically have two possible places to consult when we
want to know GDB's current working directory.
This is not ideal and can lead to confusion. Moreover, the way we're
using "gdb_difbuf" along with "getcwd" is problematic because we
declare the buffer with "1024" elements hardcoded, which does not take
into account longer pathnames that are possible in many filesystems.
Using "PATH_MAX" would also not be a solution because of portability
problems. Therefore, the best solution is to rely on the fact that
"getcwd (NULL, 0)" will "do the right thing" and return a
heap-allocated string containing the full path. With the new "getcwd"
module from gnulib, it is now possible to do that without worrying
about breaking some host.
With this patch "current_directory" is now the only place to check for
GDB's cwd.

This patch reworks the whole completion machinery, and prepares it
for later enhancements.
Adds a new "completion_tracker" class that is meant to hold everything
about the state of the current completion operation.
This class now has the responsibility of tracking the list of
completion matches, and checking whether the max completions limit has
been reached. You can look at this as this patch starting out by
C++fying the existing "completion_tracker" in symtab.c (it's just an
htab_t typedef currently), moving it to completer.h/c, and then making
it a class/generalizing/enhancing it.
Unlike with the current tracking, completion_tracker now checks
whether the limit has been reached on each completion match list
insertion. This both simplifies the max-completions handling code
(maybe_add_completion_enum is gone, for example), and is a
prerequisite for follow up patches.
The current completion_tracker is only used for symbol completions,
and the symbol code gets at the current instance via globals. This
patch cleans that up by adding a completion_tracker reference to the
signature of the completion functions, and passing the tracker around
everywhere necessary.
Then, the patch changes how the completion match list is handed over
to readline. Currently, we're using the rl_completion_entry_function
readline entry point, and the patch switches to
rl_attempted_completion_function. A following patch will want to let
GDB itself decide the common completion prefix between all matches
(what readline calls the "lowest common denominator"), instead of
having readline compute it, and that's not possible with the
rl_completion_entry_function entry point. Also,
rl_attempted_completion_function lets GDB hand over the match list to
readline as an array in one go instead of passing down matches one by
one, so from that angle it's a nicer entry point anyway.
Lastly, the patch catches exceptions around the readline entry points,
because we can't let C++ exceptions cross readline. We handle that in
the readline input entry point, but the completion entry point isn't
guarded, so GDB can abort if completion throws. E.g., in current
master:
(gdb) b -function "fun<tab>
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_RETURN_MASK_ERROR'
Aborted (core dumped)
This patch fixes that. This will be exercised in the new tests added
later on in the series.

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).

-Wwrite-strings flags several cases of missing casts around
initializations like:
static char *gdb_completer_command_word_break_characters =
" \t\n!@#$%^&*()+=|~`}{[]\"';:?/>.<,";
Obviously these could/should be const. However, while at it, there's
no need for these variables to be pointers instead of arrays. They
are never changed to point to anything else.
Unfortunately, readline's rl_completer_word_break_characters is
"char *", not "const char *". So we always need a cast somewhere. The
approach taken here is to add a new
set_rl_completer_word_break_characters function that becomes the only
place that writes to rl_completer_word_break_characters, and thus the
single place that needs the cast.

With commit 3b12939dfc ("Replace the sync_execution global with a
new enum prompt_state tristate"), GDB started aborting if you try
splitting an input line with a continuation char (backslash) while in
a multi-line command:
(gdb) commands
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
>print \
(gdb) 1 # note "(gdb)" incorrectly printed here.
>end
readline: readline_callback_read_char() called with no handler!
$
That abort is actually a symptom of an old problem introduced when
gdb_readline_wrapper was rewritten to use asynchronous readline, back
in 2007. Note how the "(gdb)" prompt is printed above in the "(gdb)
1" line. Clearly it shouldn't be there, but it already was before the
commit mentioned above. Fixing that also fixes the readline abort
shown above.
The problem starts when command_line_input passes a NULL prompt to
gdb_readline_wrapper when it finds previous incomplete input due to a
backslash, trying to fetch more input without printing another ">"
secondary prompt. That itself should not be a problem, because
passing NULL to gdb_readline_wrapper has the same meaning as passing a
pointer to empty string, since gdb_readline_wrapper exposes the same
interface as 'readline(char *)'. However, gdb_readline_wrapper passes
the prompt argument directly to display_gdb_prompt, and for the
latter, a NULL prompt argument has a different meaning - it requests
printing the primary prompt.
Before commit 782a7b8ef9c096 (which rewrote gdb_readline_wrapper to
use asynchronous readline), GDB behaved like this:
(gdb) commands
[....]
>print \
1
>end
(gdb)
The above is what this commit restores GDB back to.
New test included.

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.

gdb 7.12 doesn't compile as C++ (tried with g++ 4.9) on Solaris (tried
10 and 12, sparc and x86). The following patch (relative to the 7.12
release, though I expect most if not all issues to be present on trunk,
too) fixes this.
Only a few of the changes bear explanation:
* Initially, compilation failed whereever defs.h. was included:

^
This is due to this gem in gdb/defs.h which seems to have been present
like forever:
#ifndef atof
extern double atof (const char *); /* X3.159-1989 4.10.1.1 */
#endif
In the Solaris headers, the appropriate functions are in namespace std,
thus the conflict. I've wrapped the defs.h declaration in !__cplusplus
to avoid this; perhaps it can go completely instead.
* All the casts are necessary to appease g++ and should be pretty
obvious.
* The sol-thread.c changes are here to handle
/vol/src/gnu/gdb/gdb-7.12/gdb/sol-thread.c: In function 'void _initialize_sol_thread()':

^
and are modeled after linux-thread-db.c (try_thread_db_load_1).
The patch allowed both 32 and 64-bit C++ builds on sparc-sun-solaris2.10
and i386-pc-solaris2.10 to complete. The resulting binary hasn't seen
more than a smoke test (invoke it on itself, b main, run) yet.
When investigating the failure to detect -static-libstdc++
support (more below), I found two more issues which only show up with
-Werror:

Unless I'm mistaken, you need to run do_cleanups on every return from
the function.

Fixed by casting pid_t to long and printing it as such.
This changes most uses of make_cleanup_restore_current_ui to use
scoped_restore. The use in switch_thru_all_uis_init still remains;
that is dealt with in a later patch by replacing this iterator with a
real 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 fixes PR gdb/20604. The bug here is that passing an invalid
expression to "quit" -- e.g., "quit()" -- causes gdb to enter a
non-functioning state.
The immediate problem is that quit_force resets the terminal before
evaluating the expression. However, it seemed to me that it doesn't
really make sense to pass the quit_force argument to kill_or_detach
(which passes it to to_detach), first because conflating the exit
status for "quit" and the signal to pass when detaching doesn't make
sense, and second because to_detach implementations generally only
accept a constant here, while "quit" accepts an expression. So, I
removed that.
As an aside, I think the "detach SIGNO" functionality is not
documented.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24.

I noticed that if input is already pending on the new-ui TTY, gdb
internal-errors.
E.g., create /dev/pts/2, and type anything there (even just <return>
is sufficient).
Now start GDB creating a new UI on that TTY, while at the same time,
running a synchronous execution command. Something like:
$ gdb program -ex "new-ui console /dev/pts/2" -ex "start"
Back on /dev/pts/2, we get:
(gdb) .../src/gdb/event-top.c:360: internal-error: double prompt
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
While the main UI was waiting for "start" to finish, gdb kepts pumping
events, including the input fd of the extra console. The problem is
that stdin_event_handler doesn't restore the current UI back to what
it was, assuming that it's only ever called from the top level event
loop. However, in this case, it's being called from the nested event
loop from within maybe_wait_sync_command_done.
When finally the "start" command is done, we reach the code that
prints the prompt in the main UI, just before starting the main event
loop. Since now the current UI is pointing at the extra console (by
mistake), we find ourselves printing a double prompt on the extra
console. This is caught by the assertion that fails, as shown above.
Since other event handlers also don't restore the UI (e.g., signal
event handlers), I think it's better if whatever is pumping events to
take care to restore the UI, if it cares. That's what this patch
does. New test included.

This patch fixes a problem that problem triggers if you start an
inferior, e.g., with the "start" command, in a UI created with the
new-ui command, and then run a foreground execution command in the
main UI. Once the program stops for the latter command, typing in the
main UI no longer echoes back to the user.
The problem revolves around this:
- gdb_has_a_terminal computes its result lazily, on first call.
that is what saves gdb's initial main UI terminal state (the UI
associated with stdin):
our_terminal_info.ttystate = serial_get_tty_state (stdin_serial);
This is the state that target_terminal_ours() restores.
- In this scenario, the gdb_has_a_terminal function happens to be
first ever called from within the target_terminal_init call in
startup_inferior:
(top-gdb) bt
#0 gdb_has_a_terminal () at src/gdb/inflow.c:157
#1 0x000000000079db22 in child_terminal_init_with_pgrp () at src/gdb/inflow.c:217
[...]
#4 0x000000000065bacb in target_terminal_init () at src/gdb/target.c:456
#5 0x00000000004676d2 in startup_inferior () at src/gdb/fork-child.c:531
[...]
#7 0x000000000046b168 in linux_nat_create_inferior () at src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1112
[...]
#9 0x00000000005f20c9 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/infcmd.c:657
If the command to start the inferior is issued on the main UI, then
readline will have deprepped the terminal when we reach the above, and
the problem doesn't appear.
If however the command is issued on a non-main UI, then when we reach
that gdb_has_a_terminal call, the main UI's terminal state is still
set to whatever readline has sets it to in rl_prep_terminal, which
happens to have echo disabled. Later, when the following synchronous
execution command finishes, we'll call target_terminal_ours to restore
gdb's the main UI's terminal settings, and that restores the terminal
state with echo disabled...
Conceptually, the fix is to move the gdb_has_a_terminal call earlier,
to someplace during GDB initialization, before readline/ncurses have
had a chance to change terminal settings. Turns out that
"set_initial_gdb_ttystate" is exactly such a place.
I say conceptually, because the fix actually inlines the
gdb_has_a_terminal part that saves the terminal state in
set_initial_gdb_ttystate and then simplifies gdb_has_a_terminal, since
there's no point in making gdb_has_a_terminal do lazy computation.

A partially created UI is left in the UI list, with interp set to NULL.
Trying to do anything that will print on this UI (such as "start") will
