This patch fixes PR16508, which is about MI "-trace-find frame-number 0"
behaves differently from CLI "tfind 0". In CLI, we check both
status->running and status->filename, but in MI, we only check
status->running, which looks wrong to me. This patch moves the code
of checking to a new function check_trace_running, and use it in
both CLI and MI.
This patch also adds a test case pr16508.exp, which fails without this
fix, and passes with the fix applied.

In non-stop mode, or rather, breakpoints always-inserted mode, the
code cache can easily end up with stale breakpoint instructions:
All it takes is filling a cache line when breakpoints already exist in
that memory region, and then delete the breakpoint.

I stumbled upon this when writing a patch to infrun.c, that made
handle_inferior_event & co fill in the cache before breakpoints were
removed from the target. Recall that wait_for_inferior flushes the
dcache for every event. So in that case, always-inserted mode was not
necessary to trigger this. It's just a convenient way to expose the
issue.
The dcache works at the raw memory level. We need to update it
whenever memory is written, no matter what kind of target memory
object was originally passed down by the caller. The issue is that
the dcache update code isn't reached when a caller explicitly writes
raw memory. Breakpoint insertion/removal is one such case --
mem-break.c uses target_write_read_memory/target_write_raw_memory.
The fix is to move the dcache update code from memory_xfer_partial_1
to raw_memory_xfer_partial so that it's always reachable.
When we do that, we can actually simplify a series of things.
memory_xfer_partial_1 no longer needs to handle writes for any kind of
memory object, and therefore dcache_xfer_memory no longer needs to
handle writes either. So the latter (dcache_xfer_memory) and its
callees can be simplified to only care about reads. While we're
touching dcache_xfer_memory's prototype, might as well rename it to
reflect that fact that it only handles reads, and make it follow the
new target_xfer_status/xfered_len style. This made me notice that
dcache_xfer_memory loses the real error status if a memory read fails:
we could have failed to read due to TARGET_XFER_E_UNAVAILABLE, for
instance, but we always return TARGET_XFER_E_IO, hence the FIXME note.
I felt that fixing that fell out of the scope of this patch.
Currently dcache_xfer_memory handles the case of a write failing. The
whole cache line is invalidated when that happens. However,
dcache_update, the sole mechanism for handling writes that will remain
after the patch, does not presently handle that scenario. That's a
bug. The patch makes it handle that, by passing down the
target_xfer_status status from the caller, so that it can better
decide what to do itself. While I was changing the function's
prototype, I constified the myaddr parameter, getting rid of the need
for the cast as seen in its existing caller.

Starting with DWARF version 4, the description of the DW_AT_high_pc
attribute was amended to say:
if it is of class constant, the value is an unsigned integer offset
which when added to the low PC gives the address of the first
location past the last instruction associated with the entity.
A change was made in Apr 27th, 2012 to reflect that change:
| commit 91da14142c
| Author: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
| Date: Fri Apr 27 18:55:19 2012 +0000
|
| * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_get_pc_bounds): Check DW_AT_high_pc form to
| see whether it is an address or a constant offset from DW_AT_low_pc.
| (dwarf2_record_block_ranges): Likewise.
| (read_partial_die): Likewise.
Unfortunately, this new interpretation is now used regardless of
the CU's DWARF version. It turns out that one of WindRiver's compilers
(FTR: Diabdata 4.4) is generating DWARF version 2 info with
DW_AT_high_pc attributes improperly using the data4 form. Because of
that, we miscompute all high PCs incorrectly. This leads to a lot of
symtabs having overlapping ranges, which in turn causes havoc in
pc-to-symtab-and-line translations.
One visible effect is when inserting a breakpoint on a given function:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c4
The source location of the breakpoint is missing. The output should be:
(gdb) b world
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005c8: file dw2-rel-hi-pc-world.c, line 24.
What happens in this case is that the pc-to-SAL translation first
starts be trying to find the symtab associated to our PC using
each symtab's ranges. Because of the high_pc miscomputation,
many symtabs end up matching, and the heuristic trying to select
the most probable one unfortunately returns one that is unrelated
(it really had no change in this case to do any better). Once we
have the wrong symtab, the start searching the associated linetable,
where the addresses are correct, thus finding no match, and therefore
no SAL.
This patch is an attempt at handling the situation as gracefully
as we can, without guarantees. It introduces a new function
"attr_value_as_address" which uses the correct accessor for getting
the value of a given attribute. It then adjust the code throughout
this unit to use this function instead of assuming that addresses always
have the DW_FORM_addr format.
It also fixes the original issue of miscomputing the high_pc
by limiting the new interpretation of constant form DW_AT_high_pc
attributes to units using DWARF version 4 or later.

Consider the following type for which we would like to provide
a pretty-printer and manage it via RegexpCollectionPrettyPrinter:
typedef long time_t;
Currently, this does not work because this framework only considers
the type's tag name:
typename = gdb.types.get_basic_type(val.type).tag
if not typename:
return None
This patch extends it to use the type's name if the basic type
does not have a tag name, thus allowing the framework to also
work with typedefs like the above.

Consider the following Ada code:
-- An array whose index is an enumeration type with 128 enumerators.
type Enum_T is (Enum_000, Enum_001, [...], Enum_128);
type Table is array (Enum_T) of Boolean;
When the compiler is configured to generate pure DWARF debugging info,
trying to print type Table's description yields:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. -128) of boolean
The expected output was:
ptype pck.table
type = array (enum_000 .. enum_128) of boolean
The DWARF debugging info for our array looks like this:
<1><44>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<45> DW_AT_name : pck__table
<50> DW_AT_type : <0x28>
<2><54>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<55> DW_AT_type : <0x5c>
<59> DW_AT_lower_bound : 0
<5a> DW_AT_upper_bound : 128
The array index type is, by construction with the DWARF standard,
a subrange of our enumeration type, defined as follow:
<2><5b>: Abbrev Number: 0
<1><5c>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_enumeration_type)
<5d> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_t
<69> DW_AT_byte_size : 1
<2><6b>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_enumerator)
<6c> DW_AT_name : pck__enum_000
<7a> DW_AT_const_value : 0
[etc]
Therefore, while processing these DIEs, the array index type ends
up being a TYPE_CODE_RANGE whose target type is our enumeration type.
But the problem is that we read the upper bound as a negative value
(-128), which is then used as is by the type printer to print the
array upper bound. This negative value explains the "-128" in the
output.
To understand why the range type's upper bound is read as a negative
value, one needs to look at how it is determined, in read_subrange_type:
orig_base_type = die_type (die, cu);
base_type = check_typedef (orig_base_type);
[... high is first correctly read as 128, but then ...]
if (!TYPE_UNSIGNED (base_type) && (high & negative_mask))
high |= negative_mask;
The negative_mask is applied, here, because BASE_TYPE->FLAG_UNSIGNED
is not set. And the reason for that is because the base_type was only
partially constructed during the call to die_type. While the enum
is constructed on the fly by read_enumeration_type, its flag_unsigned
flag is only set later on, while creating the symbols corresponding to
the enum type's enumerators (see process_enumeration_scope), after
we've already finished creating our range type - and therefore too
late.
My first naive attempt at fixing this problem consisted in extracting
the part in process_enumeration_scope which processes all enumerators,
to generate the associated symbols, but more importantly set the type's
various flags when necessary. However, this does not always work well,
because we're still in the subrange_type's scope, and it might be
different from the scope where the enumeration type is defined.
So, instead, what this patch does to fix the issue is to extract
from process_enumeration_scope the part that determines whether
the enumeration type should have the flag_unsigned and/or the
flag_flag_enum flags set. It turns out that, aside from the code
implementing the loop, this part is fairly independent of the symbol
creation. With that part extracted, we can then use it at the end
of our enumeration type creation, to produce a type which should now
no longer need any adjustment.
Once the enumeration type produced is correctly marked as unsigned,
the subrange type's upper bound is then correctly read as an unsigned
value, therefore giving us an upper bound of 128 instead of -128.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (update_enumeration_type_from_children): New
function, mostly extracted from process_structure_scope.
(read_enumeration_type): Call update_enumeration_type_from_children.

Consider the following declarations in Ada...
type Item is range -32 .. 31;
for Item'Size use 6;
type Table is array (Natural range 0 .. 4) of Item;
pragma Pack (Table);
... which declare a packed array whose elements are 6 bits long.
The debugger currently does not notice that the array is packed,
and thus prints values of this type incorrectly. This can be seen
in the "ptype" output:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item
Normally, the debugger should print:
(gdb) ptype table
type = array (0 .. 4) of foo.item <packed: 6-bit elements>
The debugging information for this array looks like this:
.uleb128 0xf # (DIE (0x15c) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF9 # DW_AT_name: "pck__table"
.byte 0x6 # DW_AT_bit_stride
.long 0x1a9 # DW_AT_type
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x16a) DW_TAG_subrange_type)
.long 0x3b # DW_AT_type
.byte 0 # DW_AT_lower_bound
.byte 0x4 # DW_AT_upper_bound
.byte 0 # end of children of DIE 0x15c
The interesting part is the DW_AT_bit_stride attribute, which tells
the size of the array elements is 6 bits, rather than the normal
element type's size.
This patch adds support for this attribute by first creating
gdbtypes.c::create_array_type_with_stride, which is an enhanced
version of create_array_type taking an extra parameter as the stride.
The old create_array_type can then be re-implemented very simply
by calling the new create_array_type_with_stride.
We can then use this new function from dwarf2read, to create
arrays with or without stride.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (create_array_type_with_stride): Add declaration.
* gdbtypes.c (create_array_type_with_stride): New function,
renaming create_array_type, but with an added parameter
called "bit_stride".
(create_array_type): Re-implement using
create_array_type_with_stride.
* dwarf2read.c (read_array_type): Add support for DW_AT_byte_stride
and DW_AT_bit_stride attributes.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.c: New file.
* gdb.dwarf2/arr-stride.exp: New file.
The test, relying purely on generating an assembly file, only
verifies the type description of our array. But I was also
able to verify manually that the debugger print values of these
types correctly as well (which was not the case prior to this
patch).
With the test changed as in the patch, against current mainline, we get:

(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/tasks.exp: info tasks after hitting breakpoint
The breakpoint that caused a stop is breakpoint 3, but GDB end up
reporting (and running breakpoint commands of) "Breakpoint 2" instead.
The issue is that the bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions logic of
"wrong thread" is missing the "wrong task" check. This is usually
harmless, because the thread hop code in infrun.c code that handles
wrong-task-hitting-breakpoint does check for task-specific breakpoints
(within breakpoint_thread_match):
/* Check if a regular breakpoint has been hit before checking
for a potential single step breakpoint. Otherwise, GDB will
not see this breakpoint hit when stepping onto breakpoints. */
if (regular_breakpoint_inserted_here_p (aspace, stop_pc))
{
if (!breakpoint_thread_match (aspace, stop_pc, ecs->ptid))
thread_hop_needed = 1;
}
IOW, usually, when one only has a task specific breakpoint at a given
address, things work correctly. Put another task-specific or
non-task-specific breakpoint there, and things break.
A patch that eliminates the special thread hop code in infrun.c is
what exposed this, as after that GDB solely relies on
bpstat_check_breakpoint_conditions to know whether the right or wrong
task hit a breakpoint. IOW, given the latent bug, Ada task-specific
breakpoints become non-task-specific, and that is caught by the
testsuite, as:

I realized that the name of this test only made sense when considering
the old (never committed) implementation of the fix that came along
with the test originally, that forced a schedlock while a step-resume
(to get over the signal handler) was inserted. The final solution
that went into the tree does not force that locking.
So this renames it to something more descriptive.

This is the continuation of what Joel proposed on:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-12/msg00977.html>
Now that I have already submitted and pushed the patch to split
i386_stap_parse_special_token into two smaller functions, it is indeed
simpler to understand this patch.
It occurs because, on x86, triplet displacement operands are allowed
(like "-4+8-20(%rbp)"), and the current parser for this expression is
buggy. It does not correctly extract the register name from the
expression, which leads to incorrect evaluation. The parser was also
being very "generous" with the expression, so I included a few more
checks to ensure that we're indeed dealing with a triplet displacement
operand.
This patch also includes testcases for the two different kind of
expressions that can be encountered on x86: the triplet displacement
(explained above) and the three-argument displacement (as in
"(%rbx,%ebx,-8)"). The tests are obviously arch-dependent and are
placed under gdb.arch/.

If GDB has crashed then gdb_spawn_id still exists (although it does not work).
So my patch does not change anything. And also currently it will leave the
stale gdbserver running anyway.
In general if gdb_spawn_id does not exist then send_gdb + gdb_expect just do
not make sense anyway. So this patch just prevents the error in such case.
The killing of stale gdbserver could be improved multiple ways (also as
suggested by Pedro in the original thread) but that is IMO outside of the
scope of this patch. Apparently if there is no good response from GDB then
gdb_finish() should try to call gdb_start just to kill that gdbserver, IIUC.

Consider the following code:

type Primary_Table is array (Color range Red .. Blue) of Boolean;
Prim : Primary_Table := (True, False, False);

$2 = blue

Say:
<stopped at a breakpoint in thread 2>
(gdb) thread 3
(gdb) step
The above triggers the prepare_to_proceed/deferred_step_ptid process,
which switches back to thread 2, to step over its breakpoint before
getting back to thread 3 and "step" it.
If while stepping over the breakpoint in thread 2, a signal arrives,
and it is set to pass/nostop, we'll set a step-resume breakpoint at
the supposed signal-handler resume address, and call keep_going. The
problem is that we were supposedly stepping thread 3, and that
keep_going delivers a signal to thread 2, and due to scheduler-locking
off, resumes everything else, _including_ thread 3, the thread we want
stepping. This means that we lose control of thread 3 until the next
event, when we stop everything. The end result for the user, is that
GDB lost control of the "step".

^^^ we stopped at the wrong line. We still stepped a bit because the
test is running in a loop, and when we got back to stepping thread 3,
it happened to be in the stepping range. (The loop increments a
counter, and the test makes sure it increments exactly once. Without
the fix, the counter increments a bunch, since the user-stepped thread
runs free without GDB noticing.)
The fix is to switch to the stepping thread before continuing for the
step-resume breakpoint.

The test turns on infrun debug, does a stepi while a SIGCHLD is
pending, and checks whether the "random signal" paths in infrun.c are
taken.
On the software single-step variant above, those paths were not taken.
This is a test bug.
The Linux backend short-circuits reporting signals that are set to
pass/nostop/noprint. But _only_ if the thread is _not_
single-stepping. So on hardware-step targets, even though the signal
is set to pass/nostop/noprint by default, the thread is indeed told to
single-step, and so the core sees the signal. On the other hand, on
software single-step architectures, the backend never actually gets a
single-step request (steps are emulated by setting a breakpoint at the
next pc, and then the target told to continue, not step). So the
short-circuiting code triggers and the core doesn't see the signal.
The fix is to make the test be sure the target doesn't bypass
reporting the signal to the core.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, both with and without a series that
implements software single-step for x86_64.

This patch handles another aspect of the ELFv2 ABI, which unfortunately
requires common code changes.
In ELFv2, functions may provide both a global and a local entry point.
The global entry point (where the function symbol points to) is intended
to be used for function-pointer or cross-module (PLT) calls, and requires
r12 to be set up to the entry point address itself. The local entry
point (which is found at a fixed offset after the global entry point,
as defined by bits in the symbol table entries' st_other field), instead
expects r2 to be set up to the current TOC.
Now, when setting a breakpoint on a function by name, you really want
that breakpoint to trigger either way, no matter whether the function
is called via its local or global entry point. Since the global entry
point will always fall through into the local entry point, the way to
achieve that is to simply set the breakpoint at the local entry point.
One way to do that would be to have prologue parsing skip the code
sequence that makes up the global entry point. Unfortunately, this
does not work reliably, since -for optimized code- GDB these days
will not actuall invoke the prologue parsing code but instead just
set the breakpoint at the symbol address and rely on DWARF being
correct at any point throughout the function ...
Unfortunately, I don't really see any way to express the notion of
local entry points with the current set of gdbarch callbacks.
Thus this patch adds a new callback, skip_entrypoint, that is
somewhat analogous to skip_prologue, but is called every time
GDB needs to determine a function start address, even in those
cases where GDB decides to not call skip_prologue.
As a side effect, the skip_entrypoint implementation on ppc64
does not need to perform any instruction parsing; it can simply
rely on the local entry point flags in the symbol table entry.
With this implemented, two test cases would still fail to set
the breakpoint correctly, but that's because they use the construct:
gdb_test "break *hello"
Now, using "*hello" explicitly instructs GDB to set the breakpoint
at the numerical value of "hello" treated as function pointer, so
it will by definition only hit the global entry point.
I think this behaviour is unavoidable, but acceptable -- most people
do not use this construct, and if they do, they get what they
asked for ...
In one of those two test cases, use of this construct is really
not appropriate. I think this was added way back when as a means
to work around prologue skipping problems on some platforms. These
days that shouldn't really be necessary any more ...
For the other (step-bt), we really want to make sure backtracing
works on the very first instruction of the routine. To enable that
test also on powerpc64le-linux, we can modify the code to call the
test function via function pointer (which makes it use the global
entry point in the ELFv2 ABI).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.sh (skip_entrypoint): New callback.
* gdbarch.c, gdbarch.h: Regenerate.
* symtab.c (skip_prologue_sal): Call gdbarch_skip_entrypoint.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/sigbpt.exp: Do not use "*" when setting breakpoint
on a function.
* gdb.base/step-bt.c: Call hello via function pointer to make
sure its first instruction is executed on powerpc64le-linux.
The powerpc64le-linux ABI specifies that when a 128-bit DFP value is
passed in a pair of floating-point registers, the first register holds
the most-significant part of the value. This is as opposed to the
usual rule on little-endian systems, where the first register would
hold the least-significant part.
This affects two places in GDB, the read/write routines for the
128-bit DFP pseudo-registers, and the function call / return
sequence. For the former, current code already distinguishes
between big- and little-endian targets, but gets the latter
wrong. This is presumably because *GCC* also got it wrong,
and GDB matches the old GCC behavior. But GCC is now fixed:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg02145.html
so GDB needs to be fixed too. (Old code shouldn't really be
an issue since there is no code "out there" so far that uses
dfp128 on little-endian ...)
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ppc-sysv-tdep.c (ppc64_sysv_abi_push_freg): Use correct order
within a register pair holding a DFP 128-bit value on little-endian.
(ppc64_sysv_abi_return_value_base): Likewise.
* rs6000-tdep.c (dfp_pseudo_register_read): Likewise.
(dfp_pseudo_register_write): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/powerpc-d128-regs.exp: Enable on powerpc64*-*.
Many VSX test were failing on powerpc64le-linux, since -as opposed to the
AltiVec tests- there never were little-endian versions of the test patterns.
This patch adds such patterns, along the lines of altivec-regs.exp.
In addition, there is an actual code change required: For those VSX
registers that overlap a floating-point register, the FP register
overlaps the most-significant half of the VSX register both on big-
and little-endian systems. However, on little-endian systems, that
half is stored at an offset of 8 bytes (not 0). This works already
for the "real" FP registers, but current code gets it wrong for
the "extended" pseudo FP register GDB generates for the second
half of the VSX register bank.
This patch updates the corresponding pseudo read/write routines
to take the appropriate offset into consideration.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* rs6000-tdep.c (efpr_pseudo_register_read): Use correct offset
of the overlapped FP register within the VSX register on little-
endian platforms.
(efpr_pseudo_register_write): Likewise.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/vsx-regs.exp: Check target endianness. Provide variants
of the test patterns for use on little-endian systems.
A couple of AltiVec tests fail spuriously on powerpc64le-linux, because
they compare against an incorrect pattern. Note that those tests already
contain little-endian variants of the patterns, but those seem to have
bit-rotted a bit: when outputting a vector, GDB no longer omits trailing
zero elements (as it used to do in the past).
This patch updates the pattern to the new GDB output behavior.
In addition, the patch updates the endian test to use the new
gdb_test_multiple logic instead of gdb_expect.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.arch/altivec-regs.exp: Use gdb_test_multiple for endian test.
(decimal_vector): Fix for little-endian.

type Char_Table is array (Character range Character'First .. Character'Last)
of Natural;
Trying to print the type description of this type currently yields:
(gdb) ptype char_table
type = array ('["00"]' .. '["ff"]') of natural
Although technically correct, it seemed more useful to print the array
range as:
(gdb) ptype char_table
type = array (character) of natural

apply_frame_filter calls ensure_python_env before computing the

The trace-specific test case 'entry-values' concludes fairly late in
the process that this platform doesn't support trace. Before that,
there are some platform specifics that don't work on s390x. The fix
addresses two aspects:
(1) Removal of an excess space character in the regex for the
disassembly. This is needed when there is a function alignment
gap, because then the hex address is immediately followed by a
colon, like in the first 'nopr' line below:
(gdb) disassemble foo+50,+10
Dump of assembler code from 0x32 to 0x3c:
0x0000000000000032 <foo+50>: br %r4
0x0000000000000034: nopr %r7
0x0000000000000036: nopr %r7
0x0000000000000038 <bar+0>: stmg %r11,%r15,88(%r15)
End of assembler dump.
(2) Handling for the s390-specific call instruction.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/entry-values.exp: Remove excess space character from
regex patterns. Handle s390 call instruction.
On ppc64-linux a function symbol does not point to code, but to the
function descriptor. Thus the previous change for this test case
broke it:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-01/msg00275.html
This patch reverts to the original method, re-introducing '_start'
symbols. In addition, it adds sufficient alignment before the label,
such that the label never points into an alignment gap.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.c (FUNC): Insert alignment and
define "*_start" label. Make "name" static.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.exp: Replace references to
${name} by references to ${name}_start.
When upstream gcc is given a command line with the "-g" option after
"-g3", it doesn't generate a ".debug_macro" section. This is because
the last option wins, thus downgrading the debug level again. Without
any macro debug information in the executable, info-macros.exp
obviously produces many failures.
Since the "-g" option is appended by DejaGnu's target_compile whenever
the "debug" option is set, the fix just removes that option.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/info-macros.exp: Remove "debug" from the compile
options.
