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.

* value.h (print_decimal_floating): Remove.
* Makefile.in: Do not build doublest.c with -Wformat-nonliteral.
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.

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.

I've traced the main source of the problem to pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref not being
implemented. Since gdb always assumes references are implemented as pointers, this
causes it to think that it's dealing with a NULL pointer, thus breaking any operations
involving synthetic references.
What I did here was implementing pieced_value_funcs.coerce_ref using some of the synthetic
pointer handling code from indirect_pieced_value, as Pedro suggested. I also made a few
adjustments to the reference printing code so that it correctly shows either the address
of the referenced value or (if it's non-addressable) the "<synthetic pointer>" string.
I also wrote some unit tests based on Dwarf::assemble; these took a while to make
because in most cases I needed a synthetic reference to a physical variable. Additionally,
I started working on a unit test for classes that have a vtable, but ran into a few issues
so that'll probably go in a future patch. One thing that should definitely be fixed is that
proc function_range (called for MACRO_AT_func) will always try to compile/link using gcc
with the default options instead of g++, thus breaking C++ compilations that require e.g. libstdc++.

Years ago, these functions used to return errno/EIO. Later, through a
series of changes that intended to remove native/remote differences,
they ended up returning a target_xfer_status in disguise.
Unlike target_xfer_partial&co, the point of target_read_memory&co is
to either fully succeed or fail. On error, they always return
TARGET_XFER_E_IO. So there's no real point in casting the return of
target_read_memory to a target_xfer_status to pass it to memory_error.
Instead, it results in clearer code to simply decouple
target_read_memory&co's return from target_xfer_status.
This fixes build errors like this in C++ mode:

Fortran provide types whose values may be dynamically allocated
or associated with a variable under explicit program control.
The purpose of this commit is:
* to read allocated/associated DWARF tags and store them in
the dynamic property list of main_type.
* enable GDB to print the value of a dynamic array in Fortran
in case the type is allocated or associated (pointer to
dynamic array).
Examples:
(gdb) p vla_not_allocated
$1 = <not allocated>
(gdb) p vla_allocated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)
(gdb) p vla_ptr_not_associated
$1 = <not associated>
(gdb) p vla_ptr_associated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)
Add basic test coverage for most dynamic array use-cases in Fortran.
The commit contains the following tests:
* Ensure that values of Fortran dynamic arrays
can be evaluated correctly in various ways and states.
* Ensure that Fortran primitives can be evaluated
correctly when used as a dynamic array.
* Dynamic arrays passed to subroutines and handled
in different ways inside the routine.
* Ensure that the ptype of dynamic arrays in
Fortran can be printed in GDB correctly.
* Ensure that dynamic arrays in different states
(allocated/associated) can be evaluated.
* Dynamic arrays passed to functions and returned from
functions.
* History values of dynamic arrays can be accessed and
printed again with the correct values.
* Dynamic array evaluations using MI protocol.
* Sizeof output of dynamic arrays in various states.
The patch was tested using the test suite on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

This patch updates various value handling functions to make them
consider the addressable memory unit size of the current architecture.
This allows to correctly extract and print values on architectures whose
addressable memory unit is not 8 bits.
The patch doesn't cover all the code that would ideally need to be
adjusted, only the code paths that we happen to use, plus a few obvious
ones. Specifically, those areas are not covered by this patch:
- Management of unavailable bits
- Bitfields
- C++ stuff
Regression-tested on x86-64 Ubuntu 14.04. I saw no related test result
change.

In Ada, index types of arrays can be enumeration types, and enumeration
types can be non-contiguous. In which case the address of elements is
not given by the value of the index, but by its position in the enumeration
type.
In other words, in this example:
type Color is (Blue, Red);
for Color use (Blue => 8, Red => 12, Green => 16);
type A is array (Color) of Integer;
type B is array (1 .. 3) of Integer;
Arrays of type A and B will have the same layout in memory, even if
the enumeration Color has a hole in its set of integer value.
Since recently support for such a feature was in ada-lang.c, where the
array was casted to a regular continuous index range. We were losing
the information of index type. And this was not quite working for
subranges in variable-length fields; their bounds are expressed using
the integer value of the bounds, not its position in the enumeration,
and there was some confusion all over ada-lang.c as to whether we had
the position or the integer value was used for indexes.
The idea behind this patch is to clean this up by keeping the real
representation of these array index types and bounds when representing
the value, and only use the position when accessing the elements or
computing the length. This first patch fixes the printing of such
an array.
To the best of my knowledge, this feature only exists in Ada so it
should only affect this language.

This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from
this:
~~~
volatile gdb_exception ex;
TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
if (ex.reason < 0)
{
}
~~~
to this:
~~~
TRY
{
}
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
~~~
Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and
declaring the caught exception in the catch block.
This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when
building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode
(using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step.
TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY
and the CATCH blocks, like:
TRY
{
}
// some code here.
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch.
By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block
scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile
exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more
directly to C++'s catch blocks.
The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was
done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual
editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places
needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were
using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases
where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH
after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB
still builds at each incremental step.
END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons:
First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which
requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere.
Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for
block, like:
#define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \
for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \
exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \
EXCEPTION = exception_none)
would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90,
which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code.
Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as
long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH
block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every
frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will
be done in END_CATCH.
After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until
cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will
save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH
catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so
that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist.
IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a
newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering
C++.

2015-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
Adjust all callers of TRY_CATCH to use TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH
instead.
In read_string, we have this line
chunksize = (len == -1 ? min (8, fetchlimit) : fetchlimit);
but chunksize is only used in the block that lne == -1, so IWBN to
move chunksize to the block in which it is used, and simplify the
condition setting chunksize. This patch also moves 'found_nul' to
inner block. This patch also splits a paragraph of comment into two,
and move them to different condition blocks (len > 0 and len == -1)
respectively.
