The code on creating i386-linux target descriptions are quite similar
between GDB and GDBserver, so this patch moves them into a shared file
arch/i386.c. I didn't name it as i386-linux.c, because I want to reuse it
to create other i386 non-linux target descriptions later.

GDBserver still uses pre-generated target descriptions in order to
reply to GDB's query on target description (see xml-builtin-generated.c
in GDBserver build directory). This patch teaches GDBserver to
create XML contents according to the target descriptions rather than
using pre-generated ones.
First, change target feature c files to pass the feature xml file
name to tdesc_create_feature, so that target description in GDBserver
can record them, and create XML contents from these features in
buffer, like
...
<xi:include href="$FEATURE1_XML_NAME"/>
<xi:include href="$FEATURE2_XML_NAME"/>
...
and send this buffer back to GDB.
Note that this patch reuses target_desc.xmltarget a little bit, which is
to hold the XML contents dynamically generated in tdesc_get_features_xml.
However, it is not xfree'ed in ~target_desc, because we can't tell it is
from xstrdup or a literal string. Since we don't delete target_desc,
there is no memory leak yet. After we change all target descriptions to
the new style, target_desc.xmltarget is from xstrdup, then, we can safely
xfree it in ~target_desc.

tdesc_i386_XXX_linux is used in many places in linux-x86-low.c and this
patch adds a new function i386_linux_read_description to return the right
tdesc according to xcr0. i386_linux_read_description is quite similar to
the counterpart in GDB, and the following patch will share the duplicated

Nowadays, target_desc.reg_defs is a pointer points to a pre-generated
array, which is not flexible. This patch changes it from an array
to a VEC so that GDBserver can create target descriptions dynamically
later. Instead of using pre-generated array, the -generated.c calls
VEC_safe_push to add each register to vector.
Since target_desc.reg_defs is used in IPA, we need to build common/vec.c
for IPA too.

* regformats/regdat.sh: Update generated code.
regformats/regdat.sh generate some *-generated.c files when GDBserver
is built. Each .c file has some static variables, which are only used
within function init_registers_XXX, like this,
static struct reg regs_i386_linux[] = {
{ "eax", 0, 32 },
{ "ecx", 32, 32 },
...
};
static const char *expedite_regs_i386_linux[] = { "ebp", "esp", "eip", 0 };
static const char *xmltarget_i386_linux = "i386-linux.xml";
void
init_registers_i386_linux (void)
{
...
}
This patch moves these static variables' definitions to function
init_registers_XXX, so the generated files look like this,
void
init_registers_i386_linux (void)
{
static struct target_desc tdesc_i386_linux_s;
struct target_desc *result = &tdesc_i386_linux_s;
static struct reg regs_i386_linux[] = {
...
};
static const char *expedite_regs_i386_linux[] = { "ebp", "esp", "eip", 0 };
static const char *xmltarget_i386_linux = "i386-linux.xml";
...
}
We want GDBserver create target descriptions dynamically in each
init_registers_XXXX functions, so this patch moves all the related code
into function init_registers_XXXX, so that the following patch can easily
change function init_registers_XXXX to create target description
dynamically, rather than using current pre-generated array.

Note that the original "weak alias functions" paragraph ends up

of this series, makes the alias case Just Work:

Trying to print a function local static variable of a const-qualified
method still doesn't work after the previous fixes:
(gdb) p 'S::method() const'::static_var
$1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3}
(gdb) p S::method() const::static_var
No symbol "static_var" in specified context.
The reason is that the expression parser/evaluator loses the "const",
and the above unquoted case is just like trying to print a variable of
the non-const overload, if it exists, even. As if the above unquoted
case had been written as:
(gdb) p S::method()::static_var
No symbol "static_var" in specified context.
We can see the problem without static vars in the picture. With:
struct S
{
void method ();
void method () const;
};
Compare:
(gdb) print 'S::method(void) const'
$1 = {void (const S * const)} 0x400606 <S::method() const>
(gdb) print S::method(void) const
$2 = {void (S * const)} 0x4005d8 <S::method()> # wrong method!
That's what we need to fix. If we fix that, the function local static
case starts working.
The grammar production for function/method types is this one:
exp: exp '(' parameter_typelist ')' const_or_volatile
This results in a TYPE_INSTANCE expression evaluator operator. For
the example above, we get something like this ("set debug expression 1"):
...
0 TYPE_INSTANCE 1 TypeInstance: Type @0x560fda958be0 (void)
5 OP_SCOPE Type @0x560fdaa544d8 (S) Field name: `method'
...
While evaluating TYPE_INSTANCE, we end up in
value_struct_elt_for_reference, trying to find the method named
"method" that has the prototype recorded in TYPE_INSTANCE. In this
case, TYPE_INSTANCE says that we're looking for a method that has
"(void)" as parameters (that's what "1 TypeInstance: Type
@0x560fda958be0 (void)" above means. The trouble is that nowhere in
this mechanism do we communicate to value_struct_elt_for_reference
that we're looking for the _const_ overload.
value_struct_elt_for_reference only compared parameters, and the
non-const "method()" overload has matching parameters, so it's
considered the right match...
Conveniently, the "const_or_volatile" production in the grammar
already records "const" and "volatile" info in the type stack. The
type stack is not used in this code path, but we can borrow the
information. The patch converts the info in the type stack to an
"instance flags" enum, and adds that as another element in
TYPE_INSTANCE operators. This type instance flags is then applied to
the temporary type that is passed to value_struct_elt_for_reference
for matching.
The other side of the problem is that methods in the debug info aren't
marked const/volatile, so with that in place, the matching never finds
const/volatile-qualified methods.
The problem is that in the DWARF, there's no indication at all whether
a method is const/volatile qualified... For example (c++filt applied
to the linkage name for convenience):
<2><d3>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<d4> DW_AT_external : 1
<d4> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x3df): method
<d8> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<d9> DW_AT_decl_line : 58
<da> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x5b2): S::method() const
<de> DW_AT_declaration : 1
<de> DW_AT_object_pointer: <0xe6>
<e2> DW_AT_sibling : <0xec>
I see the same with both GCC and Clang. The patch works around this
by extracting the cv qualification from the "const" and "volatile" in
the demangled name. This will need further tweaking for "&" and
"const &" overloads, but we don't support them in the parser yet,
anyway.
The TYPE_CONST changes were necessary otherwise the comparisons in valops.c:
if (TYPE_CONST (intype) != TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONST (f, j))
continue;
would fail, because when both TYPE_CONST() TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONST() were
true, their values were different.
BTW, I'm recording the const/volatile-ness of methods in the
TYPE_FN_FIELD info because #1 - I'm not sure it's kosher to change the
method's type directly (vs having to call make_cv_type to create a new
type), and #2 it's what stabsread.c does:
...
case 'A': /* Normal functions. */
new_sublist->fn_field.is_const = 0;
new_sublist->fn_field.is_volatile = 0;
(*pp)++;
break;
case 'B': /* `const' member functions. */
new_sublist->fn_field.is_const = 1;
new_sublist->fn_field.is_volatile = 0;
...
After all this, this finally all works:
print S::method(void) const
$1 = {void (const S * const)} 0x400606 <S::method() const>
(gdb) p S::method() const::static_var
$2 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3}

While the previous commit made "p method()::static_var" (no
single-quotes) Just Work, if users (or frontends) try wrapping the
expression with quotes, they'll get:
(gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var'
'S::method()::static_var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
even if we _do_ have debug info for that variable. That's better than
the bogus/confusing value what GDB would print before the
stop-assuming-int patch:
(gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var'
$1 = 1
but I think it'd still be nice to make this case Just Work too.
In this case, due to the quoting, the C/C++ parser (c-exp.y)
interprets the whole expression/string as a single symbol name, and we
end up calling lookup_symbol on that name. There's no debug symbol
with that fully-qualified name, but since the compiler gives the
static variable a mangled linkage name exactly like the above, it
appears in the mininal symbols:
$ nm -A local-static | c++filt | grep static_var
local-static:0000000000601040 d S::method()::static_var
... and that's what GDB happens to find/print. This only happens in
C++, note, since for C the compiler uses different linkage names:
local-static-c:0000000000601040 d static_var.1848
So while (in C++, not C) function local static variables are given a
mangled name that demangles to the same syntax that GDB
documents/expects as the way to access function local statics, there's
no global symbol in the debug info with that name at all. The debug
info for a static local variable for a non-inline function looks like
this:
<1><2a1>: Abbrev Number: 19 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
...
<2><2f7>: Abbrev Number: 20 (DW_TAG_variable)
<2f8> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x4e9): static_var
<2fc> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<2fd> DW_AT_decl_line : 64
<2fe> DW_AT_type : <0x25>
<302> DW_AT_location : 9 byte block: 3 40 10 60 0 0 0 0 0 (DW_OP_addr: 601040)
and for an inline function, it looks like this (linkage name run
through c++filt for convenience):
<2><21b>: Abbrev Number: 16 (DW_TAG_variable)
<21c> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x21a): static_var
<220> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<221> DW_AT_decl_line : 48
<222> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x200): S::inline_method()::static_var
<226> DW_AT_type : <0x25>
<22a> DW_AT_external : 1
<22a> DW_AT_location : 9 byte block: 3 a0 10 60 0 0 0 0 0 (DW_OP_addr: 6010a0)
(The inline case makes the variable external so that the linker can
merge the different inlined copies. It seems like GCC never outputs
the linkage name for non-extern globals.)
When we read the DWARF, we record the static_var variable as a regular
variable of the containing function's block. This makes stopping in
the function and printing the variable as usual. The variable just so
happens to have a memory address as location.
So one way to make "p 'S::method()::static_var'" work would be to
record _two_ copies of the symbols for these variables. One in the
function's scope/block, with "static_var" as name, as we currently do,
and another in the static or global blocks (depending on whether the
symbol is external), with a fully-qualified name. I wrote a prototype
patch for that, and it works. For the non-inline case above, since
the debug info doesn't point to the linkage same, that patch built the
physname of the static local variable as the concat of the physname of
the containing function, plus "::", plus the variable's name. We
could make that approach work for C too, though it kind of feels
awkward to record fake symbol names like that in C.
The other approach I tried is to change the C++ symbol lookup routines
instead. This is the approach this commit takes. We can already
lookup up symbol in namespaces and classes, so this feels like a good
fit, and was easy enough. The advantage is that this doesn't require
recording extra symbols.
The test in gdb.cp/m-static.exp that exposed the need for this is
removed, since the same functionality is now covered by
gdb.cp/local-static.exp.

This commit makes "print S::method()::static_var" actually find the
debug symbol for static_var. Currently, you get:
(gdb) print S::method()::static_var
A syntax error in expression, near `'.
Quoting the whole string would seemingly work before the previous
patch that made GDB stop assuming int for no-debug-info variables:
(gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var'
$1 = 1
... except that's incorrect output, because:
(gdb) ptype 'S::method()::static_var'
type = <data variable, no debug info>
The way to make it work correctly currently is by quoting the
function/method part, like this:
(gdb) print 'S::method()'::static_var
$1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3}
(gdb) ptype 'S::method()'::static_var
type = struct aggregate {
int i1;
int i2;
int i3;
}
At least after the "stop assuming int" patch, this is what we
now get:
(gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var'
'S::method()::static_var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
(gdb) p (struct aggregate) 'S::method()::static_var'
$1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3}
However, IMO, users shouldn't really have to care about any of this.
GDB should Just Work, without quoting, IMO.
So here's a patch that implements support for that in the C++ parser.
With this patch, you now get:
(gdb) p S::method()::S_M_s_var_aggregate
$1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3}
(gdb) ptype S::method()::S_M_s_var_aggregate
type = struct aggregate {
int i1;
int i2;
int i3;
}

An earlier commit made GDB no longer assume no-debug-info functions
return int. This commit gives the same treatment to variables.
Currently, you can end misled by GDB over output like this:
(gdb) p var
$1 = -1
(gdb) p /x var
$2 = 0xffffffff
until you realize that GDB is assuming that the variable is an "int",
because:
(gdb) ptype var
type = <data variable, no debug info>
You may try to fix it by casting, but that doesn't really help:
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var
$3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect
^^
That's incorrect output, because the variable was defined like this:
uint64_t var = 0x7fffffffffffffff;
^^
What happened is that with the cast, GDB did an int -> 'unsigned long
long' conversion instead of reinterpreting the variable as the cast-to
type. To get at the variable properly you have to reinterpret the
variable's address manually instead, with either:
(gdb) p /x *(unsigned long long *) &var
$4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
(gdb) p /x {unsigned long long} &var
$5 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
After this commit GDB does it for you. This is what you'll get
instead:
(gdb) p var
'var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var
$1 = 0x7fffffffffffffff
As in the functions patch, the "compile" machinery doesn't currently
have the cast-to type handy, so it continues assuming no-debug
variables have int type, though now at least it warns.
The change to gdb.cp/m-static.exp deserves an explanation:
- gdb_test "print 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \
+ gdb_test "print (int) 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \
That's printing the "sintvar" function local static of the
"gnu_obj_1::method()" method.
The problem with that test is that that "'S::method()::static_var'"
syntax doesn't really work in C++ as you'd expect. The way to make it
work correctly currently is to quote the method part, not the whole
expression, like:
(gdb) print 'gnu_obj_1::method()'::sintvar
If you wrap the whole expression in quotes, like in m-static.exp, what
really happens is that the parser considers the whole string as a
symbol name, but there's no debug symbol with that name. However,
local statics have linkage and are given a mangled name that demangles
to the same string as the full expression, so that's what GDB prints.
After this commit, and without the cast, the print in m-static.exp
would error out saying that the variable has unknown type:
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'
'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
TBC, if currently (even before this series) you try to print any
function local static variable of type other than int, you'll get
bogus results. You can see that with m-static.cc as is, even.
Printing the "svar" local, which is a boolean (1 byte) still prints as
"int" (4 bytes):
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
$1 = 1
(gdb) ptype 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
type = <data variable, no debug info>
This probably prints some random bogus value on big endian machines.
If 'svar' was of some aggregate type (etc.) we'd still print it as
int, so the problem would have been more obvious... After this
commit, you'll get instead:
(gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar'
'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type
... so at least GDB is no longer misleading. Making GDB find the real
local static debug symbol is the subject of the following patches. In
the end, it'll all "Just Work".

The patch to make GDB stop assuming functions return int left GDB with
an inconsistency. While with normal expression evaluation the
"unknown return type" error shows the name of the function that misses
debug info:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^
which is handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^^^
This commit builds on the new OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE to fix it, by making
OP_FUNCALL extract the function name from the symbol stored in
OP_VAR_VALUE/OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE. We now get the same error in "print"
vs "ptype":

* gdb.base/nodebug.exp: Test that ptype's error about functions
with unknown return type includes the function name too.
The previous patch left GDB with an inconsistency. While with normal
expression evaluation the "unknown return type" error shows the name
of the function that misses debug info:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^
which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^^^
This commit is a step toward fixing it.
The problem is that while evaluating the expression above, we have no
reference to the minimal symbol where we could extract the name from.
This is because the resulting expression tree has no reference to the
minsym at all. During parsing, the type and address of the minsym are
extracted and an UNOP_MEMVAL / UNOP_MEMVAL_TLS operator is generated
(see write_exp_elt_msym). With "set debug expression", here's what
you see:
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 UNOP_MEMVAL Type @0x565334a51930 (<text variable, no debug info>)
6 OP_LONG Type @0x565334a51c60 (__CORE_ADDR), value 140737345035648 (0x7ffff7751d80)
The "print" case finds the function name, because
call_function_by_hand looks up the function by address again.
However, for "ptype", we don't reach that code, because obviously we
don't really call the function.
Unlike minsym references, references to variables with debug info have
a pointer to the variable's symbol in the expression tree, with
OP_VAR_VALUE:
(gdb) ptype main()
...
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 OP_VAR_VALUE Block @0x0, symbol @0x559bbbd9b358 (main(int, char**))
...
so I don't see why do minsyms need to be different. So to prepare for
fixing the missing function name issue, this commit adds a new
OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE operator that mimics OP_VAR_VALUE, except that it's
for minsyms instead of debug symbols. For infcalls, we now get
expressions like these:
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE Objfile @0x1e41bf0, msymbol @0x7fffe599b000 (getenv)
In the following patch, we'll make OP_FUNCALL extract the function
name from the symbol stored in OP_VAR_VALUE/OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE.
OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE will be used more in a later patch in the series
too.

The fact that GDB defaults to assuming that functions return int, when
it has no debug info for the function has been a recurring source of
user confusion. Recently this came up on the errno pretty printer
discussions. Shortly after, it came up again on IRC, with someone
wondering why does getenv() in GDB return a negative int:
(gdb) p getenv("PATH")
$1 = -6185
This question (with s/getenv/random-other-C-runtime-function) is a FAQ
on IRC.
The reason for the above is:
(gdb) p getenv
$2 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x7ffff7751d80 <getenv>
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = int ()
... which means that GDB truncated the 64-bit pointer that is actually
returned from getent to 32-bit, and then sign-extended it:
(gdb) p /x -6185
$6 = 0xffffe7d7
The workaround is to cast the function to the right type, like:
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH")
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
IMO, we should do better than this.
I see the "assume-int" issue the same way I see printing bogus values
for optimized-out variables instead of "<optimized out>" -- I'd much
rather that the debugger tells me "I don't know" and tells me how to
fix it than showing me bogus misleading results, making me go around
tilting at windmills.
If GDB prints a signed integer when you're expecting a pointer or
aggregate, you at least have some sense that something is off, but
consider the case of the function actually returning a 64-bit integer.
For example, compile this without debug info:
unsigned long long
function ()
{
return 0x7fffffffffffffff;
}
Currently, with pristine GDB, you get:
(gdb) p function ()
$1 = -1 # incorrect
(gdb) p /x function ()
$2 = 0xffffffff # incorrect
maybe after spending a few hours debugging you suspect something is
wrong with that -1, and do:
(gdb) ptype function
type = int ()
and maybe, just maybe, you realize that the function actually returns
unsigned long long. And you try to fix it with:
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect
... which still produces the wrong result, because GDB simply applied
int to unsigned long long conversion. Meaning, it sign-extended the
integer that it extracted from the return of the function, to 64-bits.
and then maybe, after asking around on IRC, you realize you have to
cast the function to a pointer of the right type, and call that. It
won't be easy, but after a few missteps, you'll get to it:
..... (gdb) p /x ((unsigned long long(*) ()) function) ()
$666 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # finally! :-)
So to improve on the user experience, this patch does the following
(interrelated) things:
- makes no-debug-info functions no longer default to "int" as return
type. Instead, they're left with NULL/"<unknown return type>"
return type.
(gdb) ptype getenv
type = <unknown return type> ()
- makes calling a function with unknown return type an error.
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
- and then to make it easier to call the function, makes it possible
to _only_ cast the return of the function to the right type,
instead of having to cast the function to a function pointer:
(gdb) p (char *) getenv ("PATH") # now Just Works
$3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
(gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH") # continues working
$4 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...
I.e., it makes GDB default the function's return type to the type
of the cast, and the function's parameters to the type of the
arguments passed down.
After this patch, here's what you'll get for the "unsigned long long"
example above:
(gdb) p function ()
'function' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
$4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff # correct!
Note that while with "print" GDB shows the name of the function that
has the problem:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
This will be fixed in the next patch.

Calling a prototyped function via a function pointer with the right
prototype doesn't work correctly, if the called function requires
argument coercion... Like, e.g., with:
float mult (float f1, float f2) { return f1 * f2; }
(gdb) p mult (2, 3.5)
$1 = 7
(gdb) p ((float (*) (float, float)) mult) (2, 3.5)
$2 = 0
both calls should have returned the same, of course. The problem is
that GDB misses marking the type of the function pointer target as
prototyped...
Without the fix, the new test fails like this:
(gdb) p ((int (*) (float, float)) t_float_values2)(3.14159,float_val2)
$30 = 0

I had to add a few includes here and there. I also had to rename the
"lines" parameter of command_lines_deleter::operator(), because ncurses
has a "#define lines ..." that was interfering when cli-script.h is
included by some TUI source files that also include ncurses header files.

If you "make" from scratch in gdbserver/, you'll notice that make
deletes the files it considers as intermediary at the end:
$ make clean && make
...
rm i386-mmx-linux-generated.c x32-avx-avx512-linux-generated.c ...
Then, if you type make again, make will rebuild these files and rebuild
gdbserver. To avoid this, we can add the .SECONDARY special target. If
it has no pre-requisites, all intermediary files will be kept.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* Makefile.in (.SECONDARY): Define target.
Instead, make symtab_and_line initialize its members itself. Many
symtab_and_line declarations are moved to where the object is
initialized at the same time both for clarity and to avoid double
initialization. A few functions, like e.g., find_frame_sal are
adjusted to return the sal using normal function return instead of an
output parameter likewise to avoid having to default-construct a sal
and then immediately have the object overwritten.

This replaces "struct symtabs_and_lines" with
std::vector<symtab_and_line> in most cases. This removes a number of
cleanups.
In some cases, the sals objects do not own the sals they point at.
Instead they point at some sal that lives on the stack. Typically
something like this:
struct symtab_and_line sal;
struct symtabs_and_lines sals;
// fill in sal
sals.nelts = 1;
sals.sals = &sal;
// use sals
Instead of switching those cases to std::vector too, such usages are
replaced by gdb::array_view<symtab_and_line> instead. This avoids
introducing heap allocations.

An array_view is an abstraction that provides a non-owning view over a
sequence of contiguous objects.
A way to put it is that array_view is to std::vector (and std::array
and built-in arrays with rank==1) like std::string_view is to
std::string.
The main intent of array_view is to use it as function input parameter
type, making it possible to pass in any sequence of contiguous
objects, irrespective of whether the objects live on the stack or heap
and what actual container owns them. Implicit construction from the
element type is supported too, making it easy to call functions that
expect an array of elements when you only have one element (usually on
the stack). For example:
struct A { .... };
void function (gdb::array_view<A> as);
std::vector<A> std_vec = ...;
std::array<A, N> std_array = ...;
A array[] = {...};
A elem;
function (std_vec);
function (std_array);
function (array);
function (elem);
Views can be either mutable or const. A const view is simply created
by specifying a const T as array_view template parameter, in which
case operator[] of non-const array_view objects ends up returning
const references. (Making the array_view itself const is analogous to
making a pointer itself be const. I.e., disables re-seating the
view/pointer.) Normally functions will pass around array_views by
value.
Uses of gdb::array_view (other than the ones in the unit tests) will
be added in a follow up patch.

Currently, with "list LINESPEC1,LINESPEC2", if one of the linespecs is
ambiguous, i.e., if it expands to multiple locations, you get this
seemingly odd output:
(gdb) list foo,bar
file: "file0.c", line number: 26
file: "file1.c", line number: 29
Since "foo" above expands to multiple locations, the specified range
is indeterminate, and GDB is trying to be helpful by showing you what
was ambiguous. It looks confusing to me, though. I think it'd be
much more user friendly if GDB actually told you that, like this:
(gdb) list foo,bar
Specified first line 'foo' is ambiguous:
file: "file0.c", line number: 26
file: "file1.c", line number: 29
(gdb) list bar,foo
Specified last line 'foo' is ambiguous:
file: "file0.c", line number: 26
file: "file1.c", line number: 29
Note, I'm using "first" and "last" in the output because that's what
the manual uses:
~~~
list first,last
Print lines from first to last. [...]

PR gdb/22046
* nat/linux-procfs.c (parse_proc_status_state): Fix PROC_STATE_STOPPED
detection.
This patch implements the ability to set/unset environment variables
on the remote target, mimicking what GDB already offers to the user.
There are two features present here: user-set and user-unset
environment variables.
User-set environment variables are only the variables that are
explicitly set by the user, using the 'set environment' command. This
means that variables that were already present in the environment when
starting GDB/GDBserver are not transmitted/considered by this feature.
User-unset environment variables are variables that are explicitly
unset by the user, using the 'unset environment' command.
The idea behind this patch is to store user-set and user-unset
environment variables in two separate sets, both part of gdb_environ.
Then, when extended_remote_create_inferior is preparing to start the
inferior, it will iterate over the two sets and set/unset variables
accordingly. Three new packets are introduced:
- QEnvironmentHexEncoded, which is used to set environment variables,
and contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR=VALUE" (VALUE
can be empty if the user set a variable with a null value, by doing
'set environment VAR=').
- QEnvironmentUnset, which is used to unset environment variables, and
contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR".
- QEnvironmentReset, which is always the first packet to be
transmitted, and is used to reset the environment, i.e., discard any
changes made by the user on previous runs.
The QEnvironmentHexEncoded packet is inspired on LLDB's extensions to
the RSP. Details about it can be seen here:
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/master/docs/lldb-gdb-remote.txt>
I decided not to implement the QEnvironment packet because it is
considered deprecated by LLDB. This packet, on LLDB, serves the same
purpose of QEnvironmentHexEncoded, but sends the information using a
plain text, non-hex-encoded string.
The other two packets are new.
This patch also includes updates to the documentation, testsuite, and
unit tests, without introducing regressions.

The problem of failing to build with arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++-4.8 was
that type CORE_ADDR is of "unsigned long" on a 64-bit machine so it's
OK to use %lx but is of type "unsigned long long" on a 32 bit system.
Fixed the problem in three places - (1) use a temp variable of type
CORE_ADDR as argument 3 when calling target_auxv_search() then assign
its value to "blksize" and "nbits" in 2 calls; (2) redo
adi_normalize_address() using masks and xor operators to calculate
normalized address; (3) call paddress() to print CORE_ADDR in either
printf_filtered() or error(). Thank you, Pedro, for all your
suggestions.

FreeBSD/mips kernels were recently changed to include the floating
point implementation revision register in the floating point register
set exported in process cores and via ptrace() (r318067). This change
will first ship in FreeBSD 12.0 when it is eventually released. The
space used to hold FIR was previously reserved in 'struct fpreg' as a
zero-filled dummy for padding, so 'struct fpreg' has not changed in
size. Since FIR should be non-zero on all MIPS processors supported
by FreeBSD, ignore a value of 0 from 'struct fpreg' and only report
non-zero values as a valid FIR register.

* mips-fbsd-nat.c (getfpregs_supplies): Return true for FIR.

Commit
Command names: make them case sensitive
3d7b173c29
made command name lookup case sensitive. However, define_command, used
when creating a user-defined command, converts the command name to
lowercase, assuming that the command name lookup works in a case
insensitive way. This causes user-defined commands with capital letters
in their name to only be callable with a lowercase version:
(gdb) define Foo
Type commands for definition of "Foo".
End with a line saying just "end".
>print 1
>end
(gdb) Foo
Undefined command: "Foo". Try "help".
(gdb) foo
$1 = 1
This patch removes that conversion to lowercase, so that the user can
call the command with the same name they provided.

* cli/cli-script.c (define_command): Don't convert command name
to lower case.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

There is an assertion that is triggering when we start GDB and
instruct it to debug a remote inferior, but don't provide a local
binary, like:
./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory -ex "tar ext :1234" \
-ex "set remote exec-file /bin/ls" -ex r
In this case, when calling exec_file_locate_attach to locate the
inferior, GDB is incorrectly resetting the breakpoints without a
thread/inferior even running, which causes an assertion to be
triggered:
binutils-gdb/gdb/thread.c:1609: internal-error: scoped_restore_current_thread::scoped_restore_current_thread(): Assertion `tp != NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
This happens because add_current_inferior_and_thread (on remote.c) is
breaking an invariant: making inferior_ptid point to a non-existing
thread and then calling common code, which in this case is
breakpoint_re_set. The fix is to make sure that inferior_ptid points
to null_ptid if there is no thread present.
A testcase is provided. Regtested on buildbot.

GDB currently searches for compilers on /usr/bin/ARCH-OS-gcc and
chooses a match from there. However, it is not currently possible for
the user to display which compiler was selected. Up until now, GDB's

it wasn't possible to obtain this information. This patch implements
the mechanisms necessary for that.

The M7 processor supports an Application Data Integrity (ADI) feature
that detects invalid data accesses. When software allocates data, it
chooses a 4-bit version number, sets the version in the upper 4 bits
of the 64-bit pointer to that data, and stores the 4-bit version in
every cacheline of the object. Hardware saves the latter in spare
bits in the cache and memory hierarchy. On each load and store, the
processor compares the upper 4 VA (virtual address) bits to the
cacheline's version. If there is a mismatch, the processor generates a
version mismatch trap which can be either precise or disrupting. The
trap is an error condition which the kernel delivers to the process as
a SIGSEGV signal.
The upper 4 bits of the VA represent a version and are not part of the
true address. The processor clears these bits and sign extends bit 59
to generate the true address.
Note that 32-bit applications cannot use ADI.
This patch adds ADI support in gdb which allows the user to examine
current version tags and assign new version tags in the program. It
also catches and reports precise or disrupting memory corruption
traps.

With the following C++ code:
int bar() { return 0;}
int bar(int) { return 0; }
GDB behaves as:
(gdb) list bar
file: "overload.cc", line number: 1
file: "overload.cc", line number: 2
It would be better for GDB to list the actual code around those two
locations, not just print the location. Like:
(gdb) list bar
file: "overload.cc", line number: 1
1 int bar() { return 0;}
2 int bar(int) { return 0; }
file: "overload.cc", line number: 2
1 int bar() { return 0;}
2 int bar(int) { return 0; }
That's what this this commit implements.

This patch improves GDB support for function aliases defined with
__attribute__ alias. For example, in the test added by this commit,
there is no reference to "func_alias" in the debug info at all, only
to "func"'s definition:
$ nm ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep " func"
00000000004005ae t func
00000000004005ae T func_alias
$ readelf -w ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep func -B 1 -A 8
<1><db>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<dc> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x111): func
<e0> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<e1> DW_AT_decl_line : 27
<e2> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<e2> DW_AT_type : <0xf8>
<e6> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x4005ae
<ee> DW_AT_high_pc : 0xb
<f6> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<f8> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
So all GDB knows about "func_alias" is from the minsym (elf symbol):
(gdb) p func_alias
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func_alias
type = int ()
(gdb) p func
$2 = {struct S *(void)} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func
type = struct S {
int field1;
int field2;
} *(void)
The result is that calling func_alias from the command line produces
incorrect results.
This is similar (though not exactly the same) to the glibc
errno/__errno_location/__GI___errno_location situation. On glibc,
errno is defined like this:
extern int *__errno_location (void);
#define errno (*__errno_location ())
with __GI___errno_location being an internal alias for
__errno_location. On my system's libc (F23), I do see debug info for
__errno_location, in the form of name vs linkage name:
<1><95a5>: Abbrev Number: 18 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<95a6> DW_AT_external : 1
<95a6> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x2c26): __errno_location
<95aa> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<95ab> DW_AT_decl_line : 24
<95ac> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x2c21): __GI___errno_location
<95b0> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<95b0> DW_AT_type : <0x9206>
<95b4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x20f40
<95bc> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x11
<95c4> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<95c6> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
however that doesn't matter in practice, because GDB doesn't record
demangled names anyway, and so we end up with the exact same situation
covered by the testcase.
So the fix is to make the expression parser find a debug symbol for
the same address as the just-found minsym, when a lookup by name
didn't find a debug symbol by name. We now get:
(gdb) p func_alias
$1 = {struct S *(void)} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) p __errno_location
$2 = {int *(void)} 0x7ffff6e92830 <__errno_location>
I've made the test exercise variable aliases too, for completeness.
Those already work correctly, because unlike for function aliases, GCC
emits debug information for variable aliases.

Assuming int_t is a typedef to int:
typedef int int_t;
gdb currently loses this expression's typedef:
(gdb) p (int_t) 0
$1 = 0
(gdb) whatis $1
type = int
or:
(gdb) whatis (int_t) 0
type = int
or, to get "whatis" out of the way:
(gdb) maint print type (int_t) 0
...
name 'int'
code 0x8 (TYPE_CODE_INT)
...
This prevents a type printer for "int_t" kicking in, with e.g.:
(gdb) p (int_t) 0
From the manual, we can see that that "whatis (int_t) 0" command
invocation should have printed "type = int_t":
If @var{arg} is a variable or an expression, @code{whatis} prints its
literal type as it is used in the source code. If the type was
defined using a @code{typedef}, @code{whatis} will @emph{not} print
the data type underlying the @code{typedef}.
(...)
If @var{arg} is a type name that was defined using @code{typedef},
@code{whatis} @dfn{unrolls} only one level of that @code{typedef}.
That one-level stripping is currently done here, in
gdb/eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard, handling OP_TYPE:
...
else if (noside == EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS)
{
struct type *type = exp->elts[pc + 1].type;
/* If this is a typedef, then find its immediate target. We
use check_typedef to resolve stubs, but we ignore its
result because we do not want to dig past all
typedefs. */
check_typedef (type);
if (TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF)
type = TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (type);
return allocate_value (type);
}
However, this stripping is reachable in both:
#1 - (gdb) whatis (int_t)0 # ARG is an expression with a cast to
# typedef type.
#2 - (gdb) whatis int_t # ARG is a type name.
while only case #2 should strip the typedef. Removing that code from
evaluate_subexp_standard is part of the fix. Instead, we make the
"whatis" command implementation itself strip one level of typedefs
when the command argument is a type name.
We then run into another problem, also fixed by this commit:
value_cast always drops any typedefs of the destination type.
With all that fixed, "whatis (int_t) 0" now works as expected:
(gdb) whatis int_t
type = int
(gdb) whatis (int_t)0
type = int_t
value_cast has many different exit/convertion paths, for handling many
different kinds of casts/conversions, and most of them had to be
tweaked to construct the value of the right "to" type. The new tests
try to exercise most of it, by trying castin of many different
combinations of types. With:
$ make check TESTS="*/whatis-ptype*.exp */gnu_vector.exp */dfp-test.exp"
... due to combinatorial explosion, the testsuite results for the
tests above alone grow like:
- # of expected passes 246
+ # of expected passes 3811
You'll note that the tests exposed one GCC buglet, filed here:

This removes save_inferior_ptid, a cleanup function, in favor of
scoped_restore.
This also fixes a possible (it seems unlikely that it could happen in
practice) memory leak -- save_inferior_ptid should have used
make_cleanup_dtor, because it allocated memory.
I tested this on the buildbot. However, there are two caveats to
this. First, sometimes it seems I misread the results. Second, I
think this patch touches some platforms that can't be tested by the
buildbot. So, extra care seems warranted.

opcodes/arm-dis.c:print_insn may update disassemble_info.mach to
bfd_mach_arm_unknown unless USER_SPECIFIED_MACHINE_TYPE is marked.
When default_print_insn is called for the first time,
disassemble_info.mach is correctly set in GDB, but arm-dis.c:print_insn
sets it to bfd_mach_arm_unknown. Then, when default_print_insn is
called again (in a loop), it triggers the assert.
The patch fixes the assert by marking USER_SPECIFIED_MACHINE_TYPE so that
opcodes won't reset disassemble_info.mach.

This plugs a couple leaks introduced by commit fff8551cf5
("dwarf2read.c: Some C++fycation, use std::vector, std::unique_ptr").
The first problem is that nothing owns the temporary line_header that
handle_DW_AT_stmt_list creates in some cases. Before the commit
mentioned above, the temporary line_header case used to have:
make_cleanup (free_cu_line_header, cu);
and that cleanup was assumed to be run by process_die, after
handle_DW_AT_stmt_list returns and before child DIEs were processed.
The second problem is found in setup_type_unit_groups: that also used
to have a similar make_cleanup call, and ended up with a similar leak
after the commit mentioned above.
Fix both cases by recording in dwarf2_cu whether a line header is
owned by the cu/die, and have process_die explicitly free the
line_header if so, making use of a new RAII object that also replaces
the reset_die_in_process cleanup, while at it.
Thanks to Philippe Waroquiers for noticing the leak and pointing in
the right direction.

Currently, "layout asm" is not so useful as "layout src" with Single-Key mode:

This patch adds, in addition to "next" and "step" commands, corresponding

When I made commit 9a6c7d9c02, which
C++-fied gdb/common/environ.[ch], I mistakenly altered the behaviour
of the 'unset environment' command. This command, which should delete
all environment variables, is now resetting the list of variables to
the state they were when GDB was started.

gdb.base/environ.exp which really checks if 'unset environment'
worked.

Newer GCC versions yield colored diagnostic messages by default, which may
be useful when executing GDB interactively from a terminal. But when run
from a GDB test case, the compiler output is written into gdb.log, where
such escape sequences are usually more inhibiting than helpful to the
evaluation of test results. So this patch suppresses that.

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.

I happened to notice that add_symbol_file_command leaks "sect_opts".
This patch fixes the leak by changing sect_opts to be a std::vector.
I had to change the logic in the loop a little bit. Previously, it
was incrementing section_index after completing an entry; but this
changes it to push a new entry when the name is seen.
I believe the argument parsing here is mildly incorrect, in that
nothing checks whether the -s option actually had any arguments.
Maybe gdb can crash if "-s NAME" is given without an argument. I

The get_valueof procedure allows tests to conveniently make gdb evaluate
an expression an return the value as a string. However, it includes an
end-of-line character in its result. I stumbled on this when trying to
use that result as part of a regex further in a test.
You can see this for example by adding a puts in
gdb.dwarf2/implref-struct.exp:get_members:
set members [get_valueof "" ${var} ""]
puts "<$members>"
The output is
<{a = 0, b = 1, c = 2}
>
This is because the regex in get_valueof is too greedy, the captured
portion matches anything up to the gdb_prompt, including the end of line
characters. This patch changes it to capture everything but end of line
characters.
The output of the puts becomes:
<{a = 0, b = 1, c = 2}>

The problem is that we're missing an xfree_deleter specialization for
arrays.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-08-10 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/gdb_unique_ptr.h (xfree_deleter<T[]>): Define.
FreeBSD's native target uses linked-lists to keep track of pending fork
events and fake vfork done events. Replace the first list with std::list
and the second with std::forward_list.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* fbsd-nat.c (struct fbsd_fork_info): Remove.
(fbsd_pending_children): Use std::list.
(fbsd_remember_child): Likewise.
(fbsd_is_child_pending): Likewise.
(fbsd_pending_vfork_done): Use std::forward_list.
(fbsd_add_vfork_done): Likewise.
(fbsd_is_vfork_done_pending): Likewise.
(fbsd_next_vfork_done): Likewise.
- Use a custom deleter with std::unique_ptr to free() memory returned
by kinfo_getvmmap().
- Use std::string with string_printf() to generate the pathname of the
procfs 'map' file.
- Use gdb::byte_vector to manage the dynamic buffer for
TARGET_OBJECT_AUXV and the dynamically allocated array of LWP IDs.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* fbsd-nat.c [HAVE_KINFO_GETVMMAP] (struct free_deleter): New.
(fbsd_find_memory_regions): Use free_deleter with std::unique_ptr.
[!HAVE_KINFO_GETVMMAP] (fbsd_find_memory_regions): Use std::string
for `mapfilename'.
(fbsd_xfer_partial): Use gdb::byte_vector.
(fbsd_add_threads): Likewise.
The documentation for the cmd_list field of the Z0 packet refers to its
content as a conditional expression, which seems like a copy-paste error
from the cond_list field.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Packets): Fix Z0 cmd_list doc referring to
conditional expression.
I happened to notice that skiplist_entry, in skip.c, contains a
gdb::optional<compiled_regex> -- but that this object's destructor is
never run. This can result in a memory leak.
This patch fixes the bug by applying a bit more C++: changing this
code to use new and delete, and std::unique_ptr; and removing cleanups
in the process.
Built and regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 25.

(skiplist_entry::file, skiplist_entry::function): Now
std::string.
(make_skip_entry): Return a unique_ptr. Use new.

(function_name_is_marked_for_skip): Update.
(skip_delete_command): Update. Use delete.
Recommit with missing header files added.
gdb/
* aarch64-linux-tdep.c: Include "auxv.h" and "elf/common.h".
(aarch64_linux_core_read_description): New function.
(aarch64_linux_init_abi): Register gdbarch_core_read_description.
Currently, AArch64 only have one target description which is tdesc_aarch64. So,
we haven't implemented any target description detection mechanism for core file.
This patch is an initial implementation of core_read_description method. Future
features can use this to return selected description.
gdb/
* aarch64-linux-tdep.c (aarch64_linux_core_read_description): New
function.
(aarch64_linux_init_abi): Register gdbarch_core_read_description.
To help avoid issues like the one fixed by e88e8651cf ("Fix memory
leak in cp-support.c").
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-08-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* cp-name-parser.y (cp_comp_to_string): Return a
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>.
* cp-support.c (replace_typedefs_qualified_name)
(replace_typedefs): Adjust to use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>.
(cp_canonicalize_string_full): Use op= instead of explicit
convertion.
(cp_class_name_from_physname, method_name_from_physname)

gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>.
* python/py-type.c (typy_lookup_type): Adjust to use
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>.
The return value of cp_comp_to_string was never freed, creating a
sizable memory leak detectable with valgrind.

Fix a commit cd6c3b4ffc ("New gdbarch methods breakpoint_kind_from_pc
and sw_breakpoint_from_kind") regression and restore the use of
`->placed_address' rather than `->reqstd_address' as the location for a
memory breakpoint to be inserted at. Previously
`gdbarch_breakpoint_from_pc' was used that made that adjustment in
`default_memory_insert_breakpoint' from the preinitialized value,
however with the said commit that call is gone, so the passed
`->placed_address' has to be used for the initialization.
The regression manifests itself as the inability to debug any MIPS/Linux
compressed ISA dynamic executable as GDB corrupts the dynamic loader
with one of its implicit breakpoints, causing the program to crash, as
seen for example with the `mips-linux-gnu' target, o32 ABI, MIPS16 code,
and the gdb.base/advance.exp test case:
(gdb) continue

* mem-break.c (default_memory_insert_breakpoint): Use
`->placed_address' rather than `->reqstd_address' for the
breakpoint location.
Fix `set architecture' and `set endian' command disassembly regressions
from commit 39503f8242 ("Delegate opcodes to select disassembler in
GDB"), and commit 003ca0fd22 ("Refactor disassembler selection"), as
well as a MIPS compressed ISA disassembly target regression from commit
6394c60699 ("Don't use print_insn_XXX in GDB"), which caused assertion
failures to trigger.
For example with the `mips-linux-gnu' target we get:

As an update to commit ede5f15146 ("gdbarch.h: Change
gdbarch_info::tdep_info's type to void *") replace the definition of the
`tdep_info' member in `struct gdbarch_info' with an anonymous union,
comprising the original member, with its type reverted to `struct
gdbarch_tdep_info *', a `tdesc_data' member of a `struct tdesc_arch_data

I ran the gdb.rust tests against Rust 1.20 (beta) and saw a few
failures. The failures all came because a particular item moved to a
different module. Since the particular choice of module name isn't
important here, I simply widened the allowable results.
Tested locally against rustc 1.19, 1.20, and 1.21.

* gdb.rust/simple.exp: Allow String to appear in a different

This removes the few remaining cleanups in the Rust language code.
The main difficulty here was that the earlier code allocated VEC heads
on an obstack. The new code instead introduces an object that
allocates and maintains the storage for whatever vectors are needed
during the parse.

This changes the users of do_restore_instream_cleanup to use a
scoped_restore instead. This patch is broken out because it warrants

then the cleanup would have modified a different UI's instream member.

The rot agent expression bytecode rotates the three items on the top of
the stack. It is not clear which way the rotation is. However, the
documentation currently shows this as the effect of the instructions:
a b c => c b a
which doesn't make sense, since the value b doesn't move. The two
valid possibilities I see are
a b c => b c a
a b c => c a b
depending on which way you rotate.
When looking at the gdbserver code, the top of the stack becomes the
third item, and the next-to-top item becomes the top. So the second
form would be the right one, since in this notation the top of the stack
is the rightmost element:
a b c => c a b

Now, GDB is able to dynamically create i386-linux target descriptions
from features, instead of using pre-generated target descriptions. These

they are still used by GDBserver).
This patch add a new maint command "maint check xml-descriptions" to test
dynamically generated tdesc are identical to these generated from xml files.

Instead of using pre-generated target descriptions, this patch
changes GDB to lazily and dynamically create target descriptions
according to the target hardware capability (xcr0 in i386).
This support any combination of target features.
Some reg in target description has "regnum" attribute, so its register
number is got from the attribute value instead from sequential allocation.
<reg name="xmm0" bitsize="128" type="vec128" regnum="32"/>
when target description is created, it should match the regnum, so this
patch adds a new field m_next_regnum to track it, if attribute number is
greater than the m_next_regnum, print the code to set register number
explicitly.

This patch changes Makefile and command "maint print c-files" so
that GDB can print c files for features instead target description.
Previously, we feed GDB a target description xml file, which generate
c files including multiple features.
With this patch, in Makefile, we wrap each feature xml file, and
create a temp target description which include only one feature.
Then, adjust the target description printer for them, and print
a c function for each given feature, so that we can use these
c functions later to create target description in a flexible way.

Nowadays, we need two steps to print c files for xml target description,
that is, 1) read xml target description in, update the current tdesc,
2) visit the current tdesc, print the c file. It is unnecessary to
involve in current tdesc, and some validations in each gdbarch are
performed unnecessarily, which will reject some target descriptions if
they are missing some mandatory feature.
This patch adds an optional argument to "maint print c-tdesc", which
is an XML file target description, so that we can combine the two
steps above into one step, and don't have to involve in global current
tdesc.

I got confused by the result value of fast_tracepoint_collecting, while
it sounds like it would return true/false (whether the thread is
collecting or not), it actually returns:
0: not collecting
1: in the jump pad, before the relocated instruction
2: in the jump pad, at or after the relocated instruction
To avoid confusion, I think it would be nice to make it return an enum.
If you can help find a shorter but still relavant name, it would be
awesome. Otherwise, we'll go with that, fast_tpoint_collect_result,
which is at least consistent with the existing
fast_tpoint_collect_status.

This problem can be fixed by
- either each prologue analyzer doesn't throw exception,
- or catch the exception thrown from gdbarch_skip_prologue,
I choose the latter because the former needs to fix *every* prologue
analyzer to not throw exception.
This error can be reproduced by changing reread.exp. The test reread.exp
has already test that breakpoint can be reset correctly after the
executable is re-read. This patch extends this test by compiling test c
file with and without -fPIE.

GDB can fetch or store FPSCR on vfpv3, which has 32 VFP registers, but

I see the following failure on Ubuntu 16.04's gcc 5.4.0:
Running /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-unwind.exp ...
FAIL: gdb.python/py-unwind.exp: continue to breakpoint: break backtrace-broken
FAIL: gdb.python/py-unwind.exp: Backtrace restored by unwinder (pattern 1)
The problem is that the test expects a very particular stack layout.
When stack protection is enabled, it adds a canary value which looks
like an additional local variable. This makes the test complain about
a bad stack layout and fail.
The simple solution is to disable stack protection for that test using
-fno-stack-protector. I checked older compilers (gcc 4.4, clang 3.5)
and they support that flag, so I don't think it's necessary to probe for
whether the compiler supports it.
Maybe a better solution would be to change the test to make it cope with
different stack layouts (perhaps it could save addresses of stuff in
some global variables which GDB/the unwinder would read). I'll go with
the simple solution for now though.

Profiling GDB with the rest of series applied, I saw calls to
language_def showing up high in some runs. The problem is that
language_def is O(N) currently, since walk the languages vector each
time to find the matching language_defn.
IMO, the add_language mechanism is pointless, because "enum language"
implies the core of GDB needs to know about all languages anyway. So
simply make the languages vector array be an array where each
element's index is the corresponding enum language enumerator. Note
that "local_language_defn" is gone along the way. It's just a copy of
"auto", so the new code simply maps one to the other. One fewer place
to update when we need to change the language vector...
Also, a while ago the output of "set language" was made out of order
as side effect of some other change. While I was at it, I made them
sorted again.

This test is using "set language ada" expecting that to cause GDB to

Continuing the theme of the explicit locations patch, this patch gets
rid of the need for quoting function names in linespec TAB completion.
To recap, when you have overloads in your program, and you want to set
a breakpoint in one of them:
void function(int); // set breakpoint here.
void function(long);
(gdb) b function(i[TAB]
<all the symbols in the program that start with "i" are uselessly shown...>
This patch gets rid of the need for quoting by switching the linespec
completer to use the custom completion word point mechanism added in
the previous explicit location patch (extending it as needed), to
correctly determine the right completion word point. In the case
above, we want the completer to figure out that it's completing a
function name that starts with "function(i", and it now does.
We also want the completer to know when it's potentially completing a
source file name, for:
(gdb) break source.[TAB] -> source.c:
(gdb) break source.c: # Type line number or function name now
And we want it to know to complete label names, which it doesn't today:
(gdb) break function:lab[TAB]
etc., etc.
So what we want is for completion to grok the input string as closely
to how the linespec parser groks it.
With that in mind, the solution suggests itself - make the linespec
completer use the same parsing code as normal linespec parsing.
That's what the patch does. The old completer is replaced by one that
reuses the actual linespec parser as much as possible. This (ideally)
eliminate differences between what completion understands and actually
setting breakpoints understands by design.
The completer now offers sensible completion candidates depending on
which component of the linespec is being completed, source filename,
function, line number, expression, and (a new addition), labels. For
example, when completing the function part, we now show the full name
of the method as completion candidates, instead of showing whatever
comes after what readline considered the word break character:
(gdb) break klass::method[TAB]
klass:method1(int)
klass:method2()
If input is past the function, then we now offer keyword condidates:
(gdb) b function(int) [TAB]
if task thread
If input is past a keyword, we offer expression completion, which is
different from linespec completion:
(gdb) b main if 1 + glo[TAB]
global
(e.g., completes on types, struct data fields, etc.)
As mentioned, this teaches the linespec completer about completing
label symbols too:
(gdb) b source.c:function:lab[TAB]
A nice convenience is that when completion uniquely matches a source
name, gdb adds the ":" automatically for you:
(gdb) b filenam[TAB]
(gdb) b filename.c: # ':' auto-added, cursor right after it.
It's the little details. :-)
I worked on this patch in parallel with writing the (big) testcase
added closer to the end of the series, which exercises many many
tricky cases around quoting and whitespace insertion placement. In
general, I think it now all Just Works.

There's some lexing code in linespec that isn't handling C++ operators
correctly. It's the usual confusion with operator< / operator<<, in
code that wants to skip past template parameters.
The linespec_lexer_lex_string change is necessary otherwise we get
this (with current master):
(gdb) break 'operator<'
unmatched quote
The need for the find_toplevel_char change was exposed by the use of
that function in the explicit location completer. Without the fix,
that completer is not able to "see" past operator< symbols, without
quoting, like:
(gdb) b -function operator<(int, int) -labe[TAB] # nothing happens
gdb incorrectly thinks "-labe" is part of the "unclosed" template
parameter list started with "<".

One of the most annoying (to me) things about GDB's completion is when
you have overloads in your program, and you want to set a breakpoint
in one of them:
void function(int); // set breakpoint here.
void function(long);
(gdb) b -f func[TAB]
(gdb) b -f function( # ok, gdb completed as much as possible.
(gdb) b -f function([TAB] # show me the overloads, please.
<_all_ symbols in the program are shown...>
E.g., when debugging GDB, that'd be:
(gdb) b -f function([TAB]
(anonymous namespace)::get_global()::global pt_insn_get_offset@plt scm_new_port_table_entry
asprintf pt_pkt_alloc_decoder scm_new_port_table_entry@plt
asprintf@plt pt_pkt_alloc_decoder@plt scm_out_of_range
bt_ctf_get_char_array pt_pkt_sync_forward scm_out_of_range@plt
bt_ctf_get_char_array@plt pt_pkt_sync_forward@plt scm_putc
bt_ctf_get_uint64 pwrite scm_putc@plt

bt_ctf_iter_read_event PyErr_Restore scm_reverse_x@plt
bt_ctf_iter_read_event@plt PyErr_Restore@plt scm_set_port_filename_x
<snip...>
Now that's a load of completely useless completions.
The reason GDB offers those is that the completer relies on readline
figuring out the completion word point in the input line based on the
language's word break characters, which include "(". So readline
tells the completer to complete on "", the string that is after '('.
Likewise, if you type "function(i[TAB]" to try to complete to "int",
you're out of luck. GDB shows you all the symbols in the program that
start with "i"... This makes sense for the expression completer, as
what you'd want to type is e.g., a global variable, say:
(gdb) print function(i[TAB]
but, it makes no sense when specifying a function name for a
breakpoint location.
To get around that limitation, users need to quote the function name,
like:
(gdb) b -f 'function([TAB]
function(int) function(long)
(gdb) b 'function(i[TAB]
(gdb) b 'function(int)' # now completes correctly!
Note that the quoting is only necessary for completion. Creating the
breakpoint does not require the quoting:
(gdb) b -f function(int) [RET]
Breakpoint 1 at ....
This patch removes this limitation.
(
Actually, it's a necessary patch, though not sufficient. That'll
start working correctly by the end of the series. With this patch, if try it,
you'll see:
(gdb) b -f function(i[TAB]
(gdb) b -f function
i.e., gdb strips everything after the "(". That's caused by some code
in symtab.c that'll be eliminated further down the series. These
patches are all unfortunately interrelated, which is also the reason
new tests only appear much later in the series.
But let's ignore that reality for the remainder of the description.
)
So... this patch gets rid of the need for quoting.
It does that by adding a way for a completer to control the exact
completion word point that readline should start the completion
request for, instead of letting readline try to figure it out using
the current language's word break chars array, and often failing.
In the case above, we want the completer to figure out that it's
completing a function name that starts with "function(i". It now
does.
It took me a while to figure out a way to ask readline to "use this
exact word point", and for a while I feared that it'd be impossible
with current readline (and having to rely on master readline for core
functionality is something I'd like to avoid very much). Eventually,
after several different attempts, I came up with what is described in
the comment above gdb_custom_word_point_brkchars in the patch.
With this patch, the handle_brkchars phase of the explicit location
completer advances the expected word point as it parses the input line
left to right, until it figures out exactly what we're completing,
instead of expecting readline to break the string using the word break
characters, and then having the completer heuristically fix up a bad
decision by parsing the input string backwards. This allows correctly
knowning that we're completing a symbol name after -function, complete
functions without quoting, etc.
Later, we'll make use of this same mechanims to implement a proper
linespec completer that avoids need for quoting too.

The linespec/locations/completer testcase added later in the series
tests every completion with both TAB completion and the "complete"
command. This exposed problems in the "complete" command, around
determining the completion word point.
First, the complete command has a too-simple approximation of what
readline's TAB-completion code does to find the completion word point.
Unfortunately, readline doesn't expose the functionality it uses
internally, so to fix this this patch copies over the relevant code,
and adjusts it a bit to better fit the use cases we need it for.
(Specifically, our version avoids relying on the
rl_word_break_characters, etc. globals, and instead takes those as
arguments.)
A following patch will want to use this function for TAB-completion
too, but the "complete" command was a good excuse to split this to a
separate patch.
Then, notice how the complete_command does not call into the completer
for the command being completed to determine the right set of word
break characters. It always uses the default set. That is fixed by
having the "complete" command call into complete_line_internal for a
full handle_brkchars phase, just TAB-completion.

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 patch cleans up "completer_handle_brkchars" callback handling:

completer_ftype_void -> completer_handle_brkchars_ftype
- Factors out common code in complete_line_internal handling the
"handle_brkchars" callback to a separate function.
- Centralizes all the "completer method" to "handle_brkchars method"
mapping in a single function.

Tab completion when debugging a program binary that uses GDB index is
surprisingly much slower than when GDB uses psymtabs instead. Around
1.5x/3x slower. That's surprising, because the whole point of GDB
index is to speed things up...
For example, with:
set pagination off
set $count = 0
while $count < 400
complete b string_prin # matches gdb's string_printf
printf "count = %d\n", $count
set $count = $count + 1
end
$ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-with-index -ex "source script.cmd"
real 0m11.042s
user 0m10.920s
sys 0m0.042s
$ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-without-index -ex "source script.cmd"
real 0m4.635s
user 0m4.590s
sys 0m0.037s
Same but with:
- complete b string_prin
+ complete b zzzzzz
to exercise the no-matches worst case, master currently gets you
something like:
with index without index
real 0m11.971s 0m8.413s
user 0m11.912s 0m8.355s
sys 0m0.035s 0m0.035s
Running gdb under perf shows 80% spent inside
maybe_add_partial_symtab_filename, and 20% spent in the lbasename
inside that.
The problem that tab completion walks over all compunit symtabs, and
for each, walks the contained file symtabs. And there a huge number
of file symtabs (each included system header, etc.) that appear in
each compunit symtab's file symtab list. As in, when debugging GDB, I
have 367381 symtabs iterated, when of those only 5371 filenames are
unique...
This was a regression from the earlier (nice) split of symtabs in
compunit symtabs + file symtabs.
The fix here is to add a cache of unique filenames per objfile so that
the walk / uniquing is only done once. There's already a abstraction
for this in symtab.c; this patch moves that code out to a separate
file and C++ifies it bit.
This makes the worst-case scenario above consistently drop to ~2.5s
(1.5s for the "string_prin" hit case), making it over 3.3x times
faster than psymtabs in this use case (7x in the "string_prin" hit
case).

* gdb.rust/simple.exp: Add regression test for PR rust/21763.
This is the same patch as posted at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-02/msg00644.html>, with
the test at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-02/msg00687.html> squashed
in.
This patch fixes:
-FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: tab complete break break.c:ma (timeout)
-FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete break break.c:ma
+PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: tab complete break break.c:ma
+PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: delete breakpoint for tab complete break break.c:ma
+PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete break break.c:ma
When run with --target_board=dwarf4-gdb-index.
The issue here is that make_file_symbol_completion_list_1, used when
completing a symbol restricted to a given source file, uses
lookup_symtab to look up the symtab with the given name, and search
for matching symbols inside. This assumes that there's only one
symtab for the given source file. This is an incorrect assumption
with (for example) -fdebug-types-section, where we'll have an extra
extra symtab containing the types. lookup_symtab finds that symtab,
and inside that symtab there are no functions...

In many ax generation functions, the "expression *exp" parameter is only
used to access the gdbarch. The same value can be found in the

using ax->gdbarch instead of exp->gdbarch, we can avoid passing exp in
many of these functions.

The direct cause of the crash is that we tried to remove an element
from the hash which supposedly exists, but does not. (htab_remove_elt
shouldn't really crash in this case, but that's secondary.)
The real problem is that early_data passed to tdesc_use_registers
includes regs from a target description that is not the target_desc,
which violates its assumptions. The registers in question are the
fs_base/gs_base registers, added by amd64_init_abi:
tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments,
AMD64_FSBASE_REGNUM, "fs_base");
tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments,
AMD64_GSBASE_REGNUM, "gs_base");
and that happens because amd64_linux_init_abi uses amd64_init_abi as
helper, but they don't coordinate on which fallback tdesc to use.
amd64_init_abi does:
if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc))
tdesc = tdesc_amd64;
and then adds the fs_base/gs_base registers of the "tdesc_amd64" tdesc
to the tdesc_arch_data.
After amd64_init_abi returns, amd64_linux_init_abi does:
if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc))
tdesc = tdesc_amd64_linux;
tdep->tdesc = tdesc;
and we end up tdesc_amd64_linux installed in tdep->tdesc.
The fix is to make sure that amd64_linux_init_abi and amd64_init_abi
agree on default tdesc, by adding a "default tdesc" parameter to
amd64_init_abi, instead of having amd64_init_abi hardcode a default.
With this, amd64_init_abi creates the fs_base/gs_base registers using
the tdesc_amd64_linux tdesc.
Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux, -m64. I don't have an x32 setup handy.
Thanks to John Baldwin, Yao Qi and Simon Marchi for the investigation.

I am really not sure if what this patch does is good, but it is my best
guess. DW_OP_addr means that there's an constant address provided by
the DWARF bytecode that should be pushed on the stack. That address is
considered skipped by the "op_ptr += addr_size", but it is never read.
uoffset is indeed read just after, without having been assigned first.
So I think the intent is to read the address, it was just omitted.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* compile/compile-loc2c.c (do_compile_dwarf_expr_to_c): Read

This Rust bug report:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41970
noted an error from gdb. What is happening here (for me, the original
report had a different error) is that a pieced DWARF expression is not
writing to every byte in the resulting value. GDB errors in this
case. However, it seems to me that it is always valid to write fewer
bytes; the issue comes from writing too many -- that is, the test is
reversed. The test was also checking the sub-object, but this also
seems incorrect, as it's expected for the expression to write the
entirety of the enclosing object. So, this patch reverses the test
and applies it to the outer type, not the subobject type.
Regtested on the buildbot.

FreeBSD recently added a new ELF core note which dumps the entire LWP
info structure (the same structure returned by the ptrace PT_LWPINFO
operation) for each thread. The plan is for this note to eventually
supplant the older "thrmisc" ELF core note as it contains more
information and it permits new information to be exported via both
ptrace() and core dumps using the same structure.
For signal information, the implementation is similar to the native
implementation for FreeBSD processes. The PL_FLAG_SI flag must be
checked to determine if the embedded siginfo_t structure is valid, and
if so it is transferred into the caller's buffer.

Previously the core_xfer_partial method used core_get_siginfo to handle

Linux-specific sections in the core file. To support fetching siginfo
from cores on other systems, add a new gdbarch method (`core_xfer_siginfo`)

linux_core_xfer_siginfo implementation of this method in linux-tdep.c.

modify the signal information for a thread, so $_siginfo is read-only for
FreeBSD.
To handle 32-bit processes on a 64-bit host, define types for 32-bit
compatible siginfo_t and convert the 64-bit siginfo_t to the 32-bit
equivalent when supplying information for a 32-bit process.

In some cases a compiler may produce a single object file (& thus single
DWO file) representing multiple source files. The most common example of
this is in whole program optimization (such as LLVM's LTO). Fission may
still be a beneficial feature to use here - to avoid the need to
read/link the debug info with system libraries and the like.
This change adds basic support for multiple CUs in a single DWO file to
support LLVM's output in this situation.
There is still outstanding work to design and implement a solution for
cross-CU references (usually using DW_FORM_ref_addr) in this scenario.
For now LLVM works around this by duplicating DIEs rather than making
cross-CU references in DWO files. This degrades debugger
behavior/quality especially for file-local entities.

The gdb.python/py-unwind.exp test is crashing GDB / leaving core dumps

The problem is simply a typo in a 'for' loop's condition, introduced
by a recent change [4fa847d78e ("Remove MAX_REGISTER_SIZE from

My last commit fixed a regression that happened when using
inline/multi-line commands for Python/Compile/Guile, but introduced
another regression: it is now not possible to use aliases for the
commands mentioned above. The fix is to almost revert the change I've
made and go back to using the 'struct cmd_list_element *', but at the
same time make sure that we advance the 'cmd_name' variable past all
the whitespace characters after the command name. If, after skipping
the whitespace, we encounter a '\0', it means that the command is not
inline. Otherwise, it is.
This patch also expands the testcase in order to check for aliases and
for trailing whitespace after the command name.

This bug is a regression caused by the following commit:
604c4576fd is the first bad commit
commit 604c4576fd
Author: Jerome Guitton <guitton@adacore.com>
Date: Tue Jan 10 15:15:53 2017 +0100
The problem happens because, on cli/cli-script.c:process_next_line,
GDB is not using the command line string to identify which command to
run, but it instead using the 'struct cmd_list_element *' that is
obtained by using the mentioned string. The problem with that is that
the 'struct cmd_list_element *' doesn't have any information on
whether the command issued by the user is a multi-line or inline one.
A multi-line command is a command that will necessarily be composed of
more than 1 line. For example:
(gdb) if 1
>python
>print ('hello')
>end
>end
As can be seen in the example above, the 'python' command actually
"opens" a new command line (represented by the change in the
indentation) that will then be used to enter Python code. OTOH, an
inline command is a command that is "self-contained" in a single line,
for example:
(gdb) if 1
>python print ('hello')
>end
This Python command is a one-liner, and therefore there is no other
Python code that can be entered for this same block. There is also no
change in the indentation.
So, the fix is somewhat simple: we have to revert the change and use
the full command line string passed to process_next_line in order to
identify whether we're dealing with a multi-line or an inline command.
This commit does just that. As can be seen, this regression also
affects other languages, like guile or the compile framework. To make
things clearer, I decided to create a new helper function responsible
for identifying a non-inline command.
Testcase is attached.

This commit fixes a mismatch between what "print" command completer
thinks the command understands, and what the command actually
understands.
The explicit location options are understood by commands that take
(linespecs and) explicit locations as argument. I.e, breakpoint
commands, and "list". For example:
(gdb) b -source file.c -function my_func
So for those commands, it makes sense that the completer
completes:
"b -sour[TAB]" -> "b -source "
"b -functi[TAB]" -> "b -function "
etc.
However, completion for commands that take expressions (not
linespecs/locations) as arguments, such as the "print" command, also
completes the explicit location options, even though those switches
aren't really understood by these commands. Instead, "-foo" is
understood as an expression applying unary minus on a symbol named
"foo" (think "print -1"):
(gdb) p -func[TAB]
(gdb) p -function [RET]
No symbol "function" in current context.
The patch fixes this by having the expression_completer function
bypass the function that completes explicit locations.
New regression tests included.

https://sourceware.com/ml/gdb-patches/2008-06/msg00143.html
"The fix is to make sure that the entire expression is passed to
expression_completer, then duplicate some logic there in the case
where location_completer is called."
The logic that was duplicated was much later on removed by the
original explicit locations patch:

However this case in expression_completer was left behind.
I couldn't come up with a test where this currently makes any
difference.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-29 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* completer.c (expression_completer): Remove code that recomputes
'text' from 'word'.
struct target_desc is used by both GDBserver and IPA, but fields
expedite_regs and xmltarget are only used in GDBserver, so this patch wraps
these two fields by ifndef IN_PROCESS_AGENT. This patch also changes
regformats/regdat.sh to generate .c files in this way too.
gdb/gdbserver:
2017-06-29 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* tdesc.h (struct target_desc) [IN_PROCESS_AGENT] <expedite_regs>:
Remove.
[IN_PROCESS_AGENT] <xmltarget>: Likewise.
gdb:
2017-06-29 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* regformats/regdat.sh: Generate code with
"ifndef IN_PROCESS_AGENT".
command.h depends on scoped_restore:
extern scoped_restore_tmpl<int> prevent_dont_repeat (void);
But doesn't include the corresponding header
("common/scoped_restore.h"). We haven't noticed a problem because
utils.h includes scoped_restore.h, and defs.h includes utils.h.
However, a patch that makes "symtab.h" include "completer.h", exposed
the issue:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-06/msg00023.html.
Without this fix that would break building all .o files like this:
In file included from src/gdb/completer.h:21:0,
from src/gdb/symtab.h:28,
from src/gdb/language.h:26,
from src/gdb/frame.h:72,
from src/gdb/gdbarch.h:39,
from src/gdb/defs.h:636,
from src/gdb/top.c:20:
src/gdb/command.h:434:8: error: ‘scoped_restore_tmpl’ does not name a type
extern scoped_restore_tmpl<int> prevent_dont_repeat (void);
^
Makefile:1911: recipe for target 'top.o' failed
because defs.h includes gdbarch.h before it includes utils.h.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-28 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* command.h: Include "common/scoped_restore.h".
We already have macro obstack_grow_str, which is helpful to shorten the
code.
gdb:

* mi/mi-cmd-break.c (mi_argv_to_format): Use obstack_grow_str
instead of obstack_grow.
Fix issue exposed by commit 3e29f34.
The basic issue is that section data referenced through an objfile
pointer can also be referenced via the program-space data pointer,
although via a separate mapping mechanism, which is set up by
update_section_map. Thus once section data attached to an objfile
pointer is released, the section map associated with the program-space
data pointer must be marked dirty to ensure that update_section_map is
called to prevent stale data being referenced. For the matter at hand
this marking is being done via a call to objfiles_changed.
Before commit 3e29f34 objfiles_changed could be called after all of
the objfile pointers were processed in reread_symbols since section
data references via the program-space data pointer would not occur in
the calls of read_symbols performed by reread_symbols.
With commit 3e29f34 MIPS target specific calls to find_pc_section were
added to the code for DWARF information processing, which is called
via read_symbols. Thus in reread_symbols the call to objfiles_changed
needs to be called before calling read_symbols, otherwise stale
section data can be referenced.
Thanks to Luis Machado for providing text for the main comment
associated with the change.

A following patch will want to add a std::vector to
objfile_per_bfd_storage. That makes it non-trivially
constructible/destructible. Since objfile_per_bfd_storage objects are
allocated on an obstack, we need to call their ctors/dtors manually.
This is what this patch does. And then since we can now rely on
ctors/dtors being run, make objfile_per_bfd_storage::storage_obstack
be an auto_obstack.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-27 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* objfiles.c (get_objfile_bfd_data): Call bfd_alloc instead of
bfd_zalloc. Call objfile_per_bfd_storage's ctor.
(free_objfile_per_bfd_storage): Call objfile_per_bfd_storage's
dtor.
* objfiles.h (objfile_per_bfd_storage): Add ctor. Make
'storage_obstack' field an auto_obstack. In-class initialize all
non-bitfield fields. Make minsyms_read bool.
* symfile.c (read_symbols): Adjust.
