When setting a pending breakpoint with a thread condition while using
the mi interface, the thread condition would be lost by gdb when the breakpoint
was resolved.
This patch fixes this behavior by setting the thread condition properly in the
mi case.
Also, this patch modifies the mi-pending test case to test for this issue and
removes some unneeded code in the testcase and dependency on stdio.

This patch changes the heuristic the linespec lexer uses to
detect a keyword in the input stream.
Currently, the heuristic is: a word is a keyword if it
1) points to a string that is a keyword
2) is followed by a non-identifier character
This is strictly more correct than using whitespace. For example,
it allows constructs such as "break foo if(i == 1)". However,
find_condition_and_thread in breakpoint.c does not support this expanded
usage. It requires whitespace to follow the keyword.
The proposed new heuristic is: a word is a keyword if it
1) points to a string that is a keyword
2) is followed by whitespace
3) is not followed by another keyword string followed by whitespace
This additional complexity allows constructs such as
"break thread thread 3" and "break thread 3". In the former case,
the actual location is a symbol named "thread" to be set on thread #3.
In the later case, the location is NULL, i.e., the default location,
to be set on thread #3.
In order to pass all the new tests added here, I've also had to add a
new feature to parse_breakpoint_sals, which expands recognition of the
default location to keywords other than "if", which is the only keyword
currently permitted with the default (NULL) location, but there is no
reason to exclude other keywords.
Consequently, it will be possible to use "break thread 1" or
"break task 1".
In addition to all of this, it is now possible to remove the keyword_ok
state from the linespec parser.

This bug appears to be caused by bad debuginfo. The method
causing the sefault in the reporter's test case is marked both static
and virtual.
This patch simply safegaurds against this case in dwarf2_add_member_fn,
where the code assumes that there is a `this' pointer when a virtual method
is seen (more specifically, when DW_AT_vtable_elem is seen).
It previously dereferenced the first formal parameter
(`this' pointer), which in this case doesn't exist. GDB consequently
segfaulted dereferencing a NULL pointer.

Wanting to make sure the new continue-pending-status.exp test tests
both cases of threads 2 and 3 reporting an event, I added counters to
the test, to make it FAIL if events for both threads aren't seen.
Assuming a well behaved backend, and given a reasonable number of
iterations, it should PASS.
However, running that against GNU/Linux gdbserver, I found that
surprisingly, that FAILed. GDBserver always reported the breakpoint
hit for the same thread.
Turns out that I broke gdbserver's thread event randomization
recently, with git commit 582511be ([gdbserver] linux-low.c: better
starvation avoidance, handle non-stop mode too). In that commit I
missed that the thread structure also has a status_pending_p field...
The end result was that count_events_callback always returns 0, and
then if no thread is stepping, select_event_lwp always returns the
event thread. IOW, no randomization is happening at all. Quite
curious how all the other changes in that patch were sufficient to fix
non-stop-fair-events.exp anyway even with that broken.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

2015-03-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>

If the linux_nat_resume's short-circuits the resume because the
current thread has a pending status, and, a thread with a higher
number was previously stopped for a breakpoint, GDB internal errors,
like:
/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/linux-nat.c:2590: internal-error: status_callback: Assertion `lp->status != 0' failed.
Fix this by make status_callback bail out earlier. GDBserver is
already doing the same.

E.g,. with --target_board=native-extended-gdbserver on x86_64 Fedora
20, I get:

FAIL: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: continue to marker (vfork) (the program is no longer running)
And with --target=native-gdbserver, I get:

KPASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: single step over vfork (PRMS server/13796)

FAIL: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: continue to marker (vfork) (the program is no longer running)
First, the lack of fork support on remote targets is supposed to be
kfailed, so the KPASS is obviously bogus. The extended-remote board
should have KFAILed too.
The problem is that the test is using "is_remote" instead of
gdb_is_target_remote.
And then, I get:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: set displaced-stepping on
stepi
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: single step over vfork
Obviously, that should be a FAIL. The problem is that the test only
expects SIGILL, not SIGSEGV. It also doesn't bail correctly if an
internal error or some other pattern caught by gdb_test_multiple
matches. The test doesn't really need to match specific exits/crashes
patterns, if the PASS regex is improved, like in ...
... this and the other "stepi" tests are a bit too lax, passing on
".*". This tightens those up to expect "x/i" and the "=>" current PC
indicator, like in:
1: x/i $pc
=> 0x3b36abc9e2 <vfork+34>: syscall
On x86_64 Fedora 20, I now get a quick KFAIL instead of timeouts with
both the native-extended-gdbserver and native-gdbserver boards:
PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: delete break vfork
PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: continue to syscall insn vfork
PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: set displaced-stepping on
KFAIL: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: vfork: single step over vfork (PRMS: server/13796)
and a full pass with native testing.

Hi,
This patch is to support catch syscall on aarch64 linux. We
implement gdbarch method get_syscall_number for aarch64-linux,
and add aarch64-linux.xml file, which looks straightforward, however
the changes to test case doesn't.
First of all, we enable catch-syscall.exp on aarch64-linux target,
but skip the multi_arch testing on current stage. I plan to touch
multi arch debugging on aarch64-linux later.
Then, when I run catch-syscall.exp on aarch64-linux, gcc errors that
SYS_pipe isn't defined. We find that aarch64 kernel only has pipe2
syscall and libc already convert pipe to pipe2. As a result, I change
catch-syscall.c to use SYS_pipe if it is defined, otherwise use
SYS_pipe2 instead. The vector all_syscalls in catch-syscall.exp can't
be pre-determined, so I add a new proc setup_all_syscalls to fill it,
according to the availability of SYS_pipe.
Regression tested on {x86_64, aarch64}-linux x {native, gdbserver}.

Unfortunately, the Python version of the dg-extract-results.sh script
doesn't produce stable-enough results for GDB. The test messages
appear to end up alpha sorted (losing the original sequence) and also
sorting changes between runs for some reason. That may be tolerable
for GCC, but for GDB, it often renders test results diffing between
different revisions unworkable.
Until that is fixed upstream, delete the script from the GDB tree.

Trying to fix a permanent breakpoints bug, I broke "next" over a
regular breakpoint. "next" would immediately hit the breakpoint the
program was already stopped at. But, the "next over setup" test
failed to notice this and still issued a pass. That's because the
regex matches "testsuite" in:

When interrupting a thread in non-stop vs all-stop, the signal given in

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/thread-specific-bp.exp: all-stop: thread start is gone
info breakpoint
The problem is that "...archer/startswith/src..." has a "start" in it,
which matches the too-lax regex in the test.
Rather than tweaking the regex, we can just remove the whole "info
threads", like we removed similar ones in other files -- GDB nowadays
does this implicitly already, so things should work without it. Thus
removing this even improves testing here a bit.

On some targets each of the assignments "i = 0" in the C source for
"breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp" are compiled to a single instruction.
Then each "si" stops at the beginning of the next source line. But on
some other targets (like s390) such an assignment compiles to multiple
instructions. Then "si" may stop in mid-line, and GDB displays the PC
address in addition to the source line number. This was not considered
by the regexp for this case.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp (test_single_step): In the

In some scenarios, GDB or GDBserver can be spawned with input _not_
connected to a tty, and then tests that rely on stdio fail with
timeouts, because the inferior's stdout and stderr streams end up
fully buffered.
See discussion here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-02/msg00809.html
We have a hack in place that works around this for Windows testing,
that forces every test program to link with an .o file that does
(lib/set_unbuffered_mode.c):
static int __gdb_set_unbuffered_output (void) __attribute__ ((constructor));
static int
__gdb_set_unbuffered_output (void)
{
setvbuf (stdout, NULL, _IONBF, BUFSIZ);
setvbuf (stderr, NULL, _IONBF, BUFSIZ);
}
That's a bit hacky; it ends up done for _all_ tests.
This patch adds a way to do this unbuffering explicitly from the test
code itself, so it is done only when necessary, and for all
targets/hosts. For starters, it adjusts gdb.base/interrupt.c to use
it.

When doing finish in a function, if gdb fails to return a value, gdb
also fails at printing the value type if this type is a struct.
For example :
(gdb) fin
....
Value returned has type: . Cannot determine contents
This patch fixes this by calling type_to_string to print the type
so that we can support these types.
This patch returns the following example output :
(gdb) fin
....
Value returned has type: struct test. Cannot determine contents
Also, this patch modifies structs.exp to check that we return the
correct type.

Non-stop tests don't really work with the
--target_board=native-extended-remote board, because tests toggle
non-stop on after GDB is already connected to gdbserver, while
Currently, non-stop must be enabled before connecting.
This adjusts the test to bail if running to main fails, like all other
non-stop tests.

TL;DR - GDB can hang if something refreshes the thread list out of the
target while the target is running. GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter.
The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore.
Long version:
Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is
still exposing latent non-stop bugs.
I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when
we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each
time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all
threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting
in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list
refreshes while some threads in the target are running.
The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue,
based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a
breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was
doing when testing multi-create.exp.
The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test
to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop,
it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me.
The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is
libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the
inferior.
Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target,
libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a
cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop.
The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in
glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are
simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are
embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer
of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel
"head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists;
thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both
simultaneously.
So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are
threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads.
Before:
stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> (&stack_cache)
After:
stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache)
td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and
iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the
list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to
stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache
list is empty.
For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread
object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next"
pointer.
In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating
thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread
C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list.
Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and
there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy
of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread
C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already
exited, and is now in the stack cache list.
After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which
because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another
thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck
in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread
in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the
terminating condition).
Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection
to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips
calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible
that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to
break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than
once.
Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need
td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE.
We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating
(thread_from_lwp), so use that more.

at that point, GDB only has the "exec" target, which obviously doesn't

is to do gdb_target_supports_trace with whatever target GDB ends up
connected after clean_restart.

On GNU/Linux, if a pthreaded program has a thread call clone(CLONE_VM)
directly, and then that clone LWP hits a debug event (breakpoint,
etc.) GDB internal errors. Threaded programs shouldn't really be
calling clone directly, but GDB shouldn't crash either.
The crash looks like this:

src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1030: internal-error: lin_lwp_attach_lwp: Assertion `lwpid > 0' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
The problem is that 'clone' ends up clearing the parent thread's tid
field in glibc's thread data structure. For x86_64, the glibc code in
question is here:
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:
...
testq $CLONE_THREAD, %rdi
jne 1f
testq $CLONE_VM, %rdi
movl $-1, %eax <----
jne 2f
movl $SYS_ify(getpid), %eax
syscall
2: movl %eax, %fs:PID
movl %eax, %fs:TID <----
1:
When GDB refreshes the thread list out of libthread_db, it finds a
thread with LWP with pid -1 (the clone's parent), which naturally
isn't yet on the thread list. GDB then tries to attach to that bogus
LWP id, which is caught by that assertion.
The fix is to detect the bad PID early.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20. GDBserver doesn't need any fix.

When gdb creates a dummy frame to execute a function in the inferior,
the process may generate a SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL because the stack
is non executable. If the signal handler set in gdb has option print
or stop enabled for these signals gdb handles this correctly.
However, in the case of noprint and nostop the signal is short-circuited
and the inferior process is sent the signal directly. This causes the
inferior to crash because of gdb.
This patch adds a check for SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL so that these
signals are sent to gdb rather than short-circuited in the inferior.
gdb then handles them properly and the inferior process does not
crash.
This patch also fixes the same behavior in gdbserver.

This patch moves the `compute_probe_arg' and `compile_probe_arg' functions
from stap-probe.c to probe.c. The rationale is that it is reasonable to
assume that all backends will provide the `$_probe_argN' convenience
variables, and that the user must be placed on the PC of the probe when
requesting that information. The value and type of the argument can still be
determined by the probe backend via the `pops->evaluate_probe_argument' and
`pops->compile_to_ax' handlers.
Note that a test in gdb.base/stap-probe.exp had to be adjusted because the "No
