Symbol table entries for section symbols are different between IRIX and
traditional MIPS ELF targets in that IRIX entries have their `st_name'
member pointing at the section's name in the string table section, while
traditional entries have 0 there and the section header string table has
to be referred via the relevant section header's `shn_name' member
instead.
This is chosen with the `elf_backend_name_local_section_symbols' backend
and can be observed with `readelf -s' output for an IRIX object:
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 12 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0: 00000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT UND
1: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 1 .text
2: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 3 .data
3: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 4 .bss
4: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 5 .reginfo
5: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 6 .MIPS.abiflags
6: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 7 .pdr
7: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 9 .gnu.attributes
8: 00002000 16 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 foo
9: 00004008 0 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 1 abar
10: 00002008 0 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 1 afoo
11: 00004000 16 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar
and a corresponding traditional object:
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 12 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0: 00000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT UND
1: 00000000 0 SECTION LOCAL DEFAULT 1

10: 00002000 16 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 foo
11: 00004000 16 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar
respectively. Consequently the right way to retrieve a section symbol's
name has to be chosen in `mips_elf_calculate_relocation' for the purpose
of error reporting.
Originally we produced symbol tables in the traditional object format
only and we handled it correctly until it was lost in a rewrite with:
commit 7403cb6305
Author: Mark Mitchell <mark@codesourcery.com>
Date: Wed Jun 30 20:13:43 1999 +0000
probably because of the extra pointer indirection added which made the
same expression have a different meaning.
With the addition of IRIX symbol table format with:
commit 174fd7f955
Author: Richard Sandiford <rdsandiford@googlemail.com>
Date: Mon Feb 9 08:04:00 2004 +0000
the bug has been partially covered and now when a relocation error is
triggered with an IRIX object the offending section symbol is correctly
reported:
tmpdir/dump0.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x2000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `.text'
tmpdir/dump0.o: In function `bar':
(.text+0x4000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `.text'
because `bfd_elf_string_from_elf_section' retrieves the name from the
string table section. With a traditional object however the function
returns an empty string and consequently `no symbol' is printed instead:
tmpdir/dump0.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x2000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `no symbol'
tmpdir/dump0.o: In function `bar':
(.text+0x4000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `no symbol'
Restore the original semantics so that the section name is always
correctly retrieved.

When evaluating an expression with EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS if the value
we return is forced to be of type not_lval then GDB will be unable to
take the address of the returned value.
Instead, we should properly initialise the LVAL of the returned value.
This commit builds on two previous commits 2520f728b7 (Forward
VALUE_LVAL when avoiding side effects for STRUCTOP_STRUCT) and
ac775bf4d3 (gdb: Forward VALUE_LVAL when avoiding side effects for
STRUCTOP_PTR), which in turn build on ac1ca910d7 (Fixes for PR
exp/15364).
This commit is currently untested due to my lack of access to an OpenCL
compiler, however, if follows the same pattern as the first two commits
mentioned above and so I believe that it is correct.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* opencl-lang.c (evaluate_subexp_opencl): If
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode, forward the VALUE_LVAL attribute to
the returned value in the STRUCTOP_STRUCT case.
Assume that we have a C program like this:
struct foo_type
{
int var;
} foo;
struct foo_type *foo_ptr = &foo;
int
main ()
{
return foo_ptr->var;
}
Then GDB should be able to evaluate the following, however, it currently
does not:
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var)
Attempt to take address of value not located in memory.
The problem is that in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode,
eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard always returns a not_lval value as the
result for a STRUCTOP_PTR operation. As a consequence, the rest of
the code believes that one cannot take the address of the returned
value.
This patch fixes STRUCTOP_PTR handling so that the VALUE_LVAL
attribute for the returned value is properly initialized. After this
change, the above session becomes:
(gdb) start
...
(gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var)
type = int *
This commit is largely the same as commit 2520f728b7 (Forward
VALUE_LVAL when avoiding side effects for STRUCTOP_STRUCT) but applied
to STRUCTOP_PTR rather than STRUCTOP_STRUCT. Both of these commits are
building on top of commit ac1ca910d7 (Fixes for PR exp/15364).

A `bfd_reloc_outofrange' condition from `mips_elf_calculate_relocation'
currently triggers the warning callback, which in the case of LD prints
messages like:
foo.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x0): warning: JALX to a non-word-aligned address
or:
foo.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x0): warning: PC-relative load from unaligned address
and nothing else, which suggests this is a benign condition and link has
otherwise successfully run to completion. This is however not the case,
the link terminates right away with no further messages and no output
produced.
Use the general error or warning info callback then, preserving the
message format. Also set a BFD error condition so that a failure is
unambiguously reported. Complement the change with a set of suitable
test suite additions.

Since existing ld and gold support the 64-bit (MIPS) ELF archives, we
can use the 64-bit (MIPS) ELF archives as 64-bit archives. Since the
plugin target is used to create archive in plugin-enabled ar, we need
a way to enable 64-bit archives in the plugin target. This patch adds
--enable-64-bit-archive to bfd to force 64-bit archives in ar and
ranlib. Since both 64-bit MIPS and s390 ELF targets currently use
64-bit archives, 64-bit archives are enabled by default for them.
64-bit archive is generated automatically if the archive is too big.
Tested on Linux/x86 and Linux/x86-64 with existing ld and gold.

This patch fixes PR python/17386.
The bug is that gdb.Value does not implement the Python __index__
method. This method is needed to convert a Python object to an index
and is used by various operations in Python, such as indexing an
array.
The fix is to implement the nb_index method for gdb.Value.
nb_index was added in Python 2.5. I don't have a good way to test
Python 2.4, but I made an attempt to accomodate it.
I chose to use valpy_long in all cases because this simplifies porting
to Python 3, and because there didn't seem to be any harm.

Python 2's PyNumberMethods has nb_inplace_divide, but Python 3 does

This buglet didn't cause much fallout because the only non-NULL entry
in value_object_as_number after this is for valpy_divide; and the
missing slot caused it to slide up to nb_floor_divide (where
nb_true_divide was intended).

When GDB attaches to a process, it looks at the /proc/PID/task/ dir
for all clone threads of that process, and attaches to each of them.
Usually, if there is more than one clone thread, it means the program
is multi threaded and linked with pthreads. Thus when GDB soon after
attaching finds and loads a libthread_db matching the process, it'll
add a thread to the thread list for each of the initially found
lower-level LWPs.
If, however, GDB fails to find/load a matching libthread_db, nothing
is adding the LWPs to the thread list. And because of that, "detach"
hits an internal error:

Hacking the gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test to
spawn thousands of threads instead of dozens, and running gdb under
perf, I saw that GDB was spending most of the time in find_lwp_pid:
- captured_main
- 93.61% catch_command_errors
- 87.41% attach_command
- 87.40% linux_nat_attach
- 87.40% linux_proc_attach_tgid_threads
- 82.38% attach_proc_task_lwp_callback
- 81.01% find_lwp_pid
5.30% ptid_get_lwp
+ 0.10% ptid_lwp_p
+ 0.64% add_thread
+ 0.26% set_running
+ 0.24% set_executing
0.12% ptid_get_lwp
+ 0.01% ptrace
+ 0.01% add_lwp
attach_proc_task_lwp_callback is called once for each LWP that we
attach to, found by listing the /proc/PID/task/ directory. In turn,
attach_proc_task_lwp_callback calls find_lwp_pid to check whether the
LWP we're about to try to attach to is already known. Since
find_lwp_pid does a linear walk over the whole LWP list, this becomes
quadratic. We do the /proc/PID/task/ listing until we get two
iterations in a row where we found no new threads. So the second and
following times we walk the /proc/PID/task/ dir, we're going to take
an even worse find_lwp_pid hit.
Fix this by adding a hash table keyed by LWP PID, for fast lookup.
The linked list embedded in the LWP structure itself is kept, and made
a double-linked list, so that removals from that list are O(1). An
earlier version of this patch got rid of this list altogether, but
that revealed hidden dependencies / assumptions on how the list is
sorted. For example, killing a process and then waiting for all the
LWPs status using iterate_over_lwps only works as is because the
leader LWP is always last in the list. So I thought it better to take
an incremental approach and make this patch concern itself _only_ with
the PID lookup optimization.

Hacking the gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test to
spawn thousands of threads instead of dozens, I saw GDB having trouble
keeping up with threads being spawned too fast, when it tried to stop
them all. This was because while gdb is doing that, it updates the
thread list to make sure no new thread has sneaked in that might need
to be paused. It does this a few times until it sees no-new-threads
twice in a row. The thread listing update itself is not that
expensive, however, in the Linux backend, updating the threads list
calls linux_common_core_of_thread for each LWP to record on which core
each LWP was last seen running, which opens/reads/closes a /proc file
for each LWP which becomes expensive when you need to do it for
thousands of LWPs.
perf shows gdb in linux_common_core_of_thread 44% of the time, in the
stop_all_threads -> update_thread_list path in this use case.
This patch simply makes linux_common_core_of_thread avoid updating the
core the thread is bound to if the thread hasn't run since the last
time we updated that info. This makes linux_common_core_of_thread
disappear into the noise in the perf report.

Hacking the gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test to
spawn thousands of threads instead of dozens to stress and debug
timeout problems with gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp,
I saw that GDB would spend several seconds just reading the
/proc/PID/smaps file, to determine the vDSO mapping range. GDB opens
and reads the whole file just once, and caches the result, but even
that is too slow. For example, with almost 8000 threads:
$ ls /proc/3518/task/ | wc -l
7906
reading the /proc/PID/smaps file grepping for "vdso" takes over 15
seconds :
$ time cat /proc/3518/smaps | grep vdso
7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
real 0m15.371s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m15.017s
Looking around the web for hints, I found a nice description of the
issue here:
http://backtrace.io/blog/blog/2014/11/12/large-thread-counts-and-slow-process-maps/
The problem is that /proc/PID/smaps wants to show the mappings as
being thread stack, and that has the kernel iterating over all threads
in the thread group, for each mapping.
The fix is to use the "map" file under /proc/PID/task/PID/ instead of
the /proc/PID/ one, as the former doesn't mark thread stacks for all
threads.
That alone drops the timing to the millisecond range on my machine:
$ time cat /proc/3518/task/3518/smaps | grep vdso
7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
real 0m0.150s
user 0m0.009s
sys 0m0.084s
And since we only need the vdso mapping's address range, we can use
"maps" file instead of "smaps", and it's even cheaper:
/proc/PID/task/PID/maps :
$ time cat /proc/3518/task/3518/maps | grep vdso
7ffdbafee000-7ffdbaff0000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]

A following patch (fix for gdb/19828) makes linux-nat.c add threads to
GDB's thread list earlier in the "attach" sequence, and that causes a
surprising regression on
gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp on my machine. The
extra "thread x exited" handling and traffic slows down that test
enough that GDB core has trouble keeping up with new threads that are
spawned while trying to stop existing ones.
I saw the exact same issue with remote/gdbserver a while ago and fixed
it in 65706a29ba (Remote thread create/exit events) so part of the
fix here is the exact same -- add support for thread created events to
gdb/linux-nat.c. infrun.c:stop_all_threads enables those events when
it tries to stop threads, which ensures that new threads never get a
chance to themselves start new threads, thus fixing the race.
