This bug has been reported on PR breakpoints/24541, but it is possible
to reproduce it easily by running:
make check-gdb TESTS=gdb.base/stap-probe.exp RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board unix/-m32'
The underlying cause is kind of complex, and involves decisions made
by GCC and the sys/sdt.h header file about how to represent a probe
argument that lives in a register in 32-bit programs. I'll use
Andrew's example on the bug to illustrate the problem.
libstdc++ has a probe named "throw" with two arguments. On i386, the
probe is:
stapsdt 0x00000028 NT_STAPSDT (SystemTap probe descriptors)
Provider: libstdcxx
Name: throw
Location: 0x00072c96, Base: 0x00133d64, Semaphore: 0x00000000
Arguments: 4@%si 4@%di
I.e., the first argument is an unsigned 32-bit value (represented by
the "4@") that lives on %si, and the second argument is an unsigned
32-bit value that lives on %di. Note the discrepancy between the
argument size reported by the probe (32-bit) and the register size
being used to store the value (16-bit).
However, if you take a look at the disassemble of a program that uses
this probe, you will see:

Note how the program is actually using %edi, and not %di, to store the
second argument. This is the problem here.
GDB will basically read the probe argument, then read the contents of
%di, and then cast this value to uint32_t, which causes the wrong
value to be obtained. In the gdb.base/stap-probe.exp case, this makes
GDB read the wrong memory location, and not be able to display a test
string. In Andrew's example, this causes GDB to actually stop at a
"catch throw" when it should actually have *not* stopped.
After some discussion with Frank Eigler and Jakub Jelinek, it was
decided that this bug should be fixed on the client side (i.e., the
program that actually reads the probes), and this is why I'm proposing
this patch.
The idea is simple: we will have a gdbarch method, which, for now, is
only used by i386. The generic code that deals with register operands
on gdb/stap-probe.c will call this method if it exists, passing the
current parse information, the register name and its number.
The i386 method will then verify if the register size is greater or
equal than the size reported by the stap probe (the "4@" part). If it
is, we're fine. Otherwise, it will check if we're dealing with any of
the "extendable" registers (like ax, bx, si, di, sp, etc.). If we
are, it will change the register name to include the "e" prefix.
I have tested the patch here in many scenarios, and it fixes Andrew's
bug and also the regressions I mentioned before, on
gdb.base/stap-probe.exp. No regressions where found on other tests.

This commit restructures the relationship between the type_align
function and the gdbarch_type_align method.
The problem being addressed with this commit is this; previously the
type_align function was structured so that for "basic" types (int,
float, etc) the gdbarch_type_align hook was called, which for
"compound" types (arrays, structs, etc) the common type_align code has
a fixed method for how to extract a "basic" type and would then call
itself on that "basic" type.
The problem is that if an architecture wants to modify the alignment
rules for a "compound" type then this is not currently possible.
In the revised structure, all types pass through the
gdbarch_type_align method. If this method returns 0 then this
indicates that the architecture has no special rules for this type,
and GDB should apply the default rules for alignment. However, the
architecture is free to provide an alignment for any type, both
"basic" and "compound".
After this commit the default alignment rules now all live in the
type_align function, the default_type_align only ever returns 0,
meaning apply the default rules.
I've updated the 3 targets (arc, i386, and nios2) that already
override the gdbarch_type_align method to fit the new scheme.
Tested on X86-64/GNU Linux with no regressions.

Supply default gdbarch methods for gdbarch_dummy_id,
gdbarch_unwind_pc, and gdbarch_unwind_sp. This patch doesn't actually
convert any targets to use these methods, and so, there will be no
user visible changes after this commit.
The implementations for default_dummy_id and default_unwind_sp are
fairly straight forward, these just take on the pattern used by most
targets. Once these default methods are in place then most targets
will be able to switch over.
The implementation for default_unwind_pc is also fairly straight
forward, but maybe needs some explanation.
This patch has gone through a number of iterations:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00165.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00306.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-06/msg00090.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-09/msg00127.html
and the implementation of default_unwind_pc has changed over this
time. Originally, I took an implementation like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
return frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
}
This is basically a clone of default_unwind_sp, but using $pc. It was
pointed out that we could potentially do better, and in version 2 the
implementation became:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct type *type;
int pc_regnum;
CORE_ADDR addr;
struct value *value;
pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
value = frame_unwind_register_value (next_frame, pc_regnum);
type = builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_func_ptr;
addr = extract_typed_address (value_contents_all (value), type);
addr = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, addr);
release_value (value);
value_free (value);
return addr;
}
The idea was to try split out some of the steps of unwinding the $pc,
steps that are on some (or many) targets no-ops, and so allow targets
that do override these methods, to make use of default_unwind_pc.
This implementation remained in place for version 2, 3, and 4.
However, I realised that I'd made a mistake, most targets simply use
frame_unwind_register_unsigned to unwind the $pc, and this throws an
error if the register value is optimized out or unavailable. My new
proposed implementation doesn't do this, I was going to end up
breaking many targets.
I considered duplicating the code from frame_unwind_register_unsigned
that throws the errors into my new default_unwind_pc, however, this
felt really overly complex. So, what I instead went with was to
simply revert back to using frame_unwind_register_unsigned. Almost
all existing targets already use this. Some of the ones that don't can
be converted to, which means almost all targets could end up using the
default.
One addition I have made over the version 1 implementation is to add a
call to gdbarch_addr_bits_remove. For most targets this is a no-op,
but for a handful, having this call in place will mean that they can
use the default method. After all this, the new default_unwind_pc now
looks like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
CORE_ADDR pc = frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
pc = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, pc);
return pc;
}

When setting a syscall catchpoint by name, catch syscalls whose name
or alias matches the requested string.
When the ABI of a system call is changed in the FreeBSD kernel, this
is implemented by leaving a compatibility system call using the old
ABI at the existing "slot" and allocating a new system call for the
version using the new ABI. For example, new fields were added to the
'struct kevent' used by the kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12. The
previous kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12 kernels is now called
freebsd11_kevent() and is still used by older binaries compiled
against the older ABI. The freebsd11_kevent() system call can be
tagged with an "alias" attribute of "kevent" permitting 'catch syscall
kevent' to catch both system calls and providing the expected user
behavior for both old and new binaries. It also provides the expected
behavior if GDB is compiled on an older host (such as a FreeBSD 11
host).

In the existing code, when using the regset section iteration functions, the
size parameter is used in different ways.
With collect, size is used to create the buffer in which to write the regset.
(see linux-tdep.c::linux_collect_regset_section_cb).
With supply, size is used to confirm the existing regset is the correct size.
If REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE is set then the regset can be bigger than size.
Effectively, size is the minimum possible size of the regset.
(see corelow.c::get_core_register_section).
There are currently no targets with both REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE and a collect
function.
In SVE, a corefile can contain one of two formats after the header, both of
which are different sizes. However, when writing a core file, we always want
to write out the full bigger size.
To allow support of collects for REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE we need two sizes.
This is done by adding supply_size and collect_size.

Implement MIPS target support for passing options to the disassembler,
complementing commit 65b48a8140 ("GDB: Add support for the new
set/show disassembler-options commands.").
This includes options that expect an argument, so adjust the generic
code and data structures used so as to handle such options. So as to
give backends syntax flexibility no specific delimiter has been defined
to separate options from their respective arguments, so it has to be
included as the last character of the option name. Completion code
however has not been adjusted and consequently option arguments cannot
be completed at this time.
Also the MIPS target has non-empty defaults for the options, so that ABI
names for the general-purpose registers respect our `set mips abi ...'
setting rather than always being determined from the ELF headers of the
binary file selected. Handle these defaults as implicit options, never
shown to the user and always prepended to the user-specified options, so
that the latters can override the defaults.
The resulting output for the MIPS target is as follows:
(gdb) show disassembler-options
The current disassembler options are ''
The following disassembler options are supported for use with the
'set disassembler-options <option>[,<option>...]' command:

which corresponds to what `objdump --help' used to print for the MIPS
target, with minor formatting changes, most notably option argument
lists being wrapped, but also the amount of white space separating
options from the respective descriptions. The relevant part the new
code is now also used by `objdump --help', which means these formatting
changes apply to both outputs, except for argument list wrapping, which
is GDB-specific.
This also adds a separating new line between the heading and option
lists where descriptions are provided, hence:

also been provided, covering the default settings with ABI overrides as
well as disassembler option overrides.

This is more preparation bits for multi-target support.
In a multi-target scenario, we need to address the case of different
processes/threads running on different targets that happen to have the
same PID/PTID. E.g., we can have both process 123 in target 1, and
process 123 in target 2, while they're in reality different processes
running on different machines. Or maybe we've loaded multiple
instances of the same core file. Etc.
To address this, in my WIP multi-target branch, threads and processes
are uniquely identified by the (process_stratum target_ops *, ptid_t)
and (process_stratum target_ops *, pid) tuples respectively. I.e.,
each process_stratum instance has its own thread/process number space.
As you can imagine, that requires passing around target_ops * pointers
in a number of functions where we're currently passing only a ptid_t
or an int. E.g., when we look up a thread_info object by ptid_t in
find_thread_ptid, the ptid_t alone isn't sufficient.
In many cases though, we already have the thread_info or inferior
pointer handy, but we "lose" it somewhere along the call stack, only
to look it up again by ptid_t/pid. Since thread_info or inferior
objects know their parent target, if we pass around thread_info or
inferior pointers when possible, we avoid having to add extra
target_ops parameters to many functions, and also, we eliminate a
number of by ptid_t/int lookups.
So that's what this patch does. In a bit more detail:
- Changes a number of functions and methods to take a thread_info or
inferior pointer instead of a ptid_t or int parameter.
- Changes a number of structure fields from ptid_t/int to inferior or
thread_info pointers.
- Uses the inferior_thread() function whenever possible instead of
inferior_ptid.
- Uses thread_info pointers directly when possible instead of the
is_running/is_stopped etc. routines that require a lookup.
- A number of functions are eliminated along the way, such as:
int valid_gdb_inferior_id (int num);
int pid_to_gdb_inferior_id (int pid);
int gdb_inferior_id_to_pid (int num);
int in_inferior_list (int pid);
- A few structures and places hold a thread_info pointer across
inferior execution, so now they take a strong reference to the
(refcounted) thread_info object to avoid the thread_info pointer
getting stale. This is done in enable_thread_stack_temporaries and
in the infcall.c code.
- Related, there's a spot in infcall.c where using a RAII object to
handle the refcount would be handy, so a gdb::ref_ptr specialization
for thread_info is added (thread_info_ref, in gdbthread.h), along
with a gdb_ref_ptr policy that works for all refcounted_object types
(in common/refcounted-object.h).

This patch fixes a bug introduced by fix to AArch64 pointer tagging.
In our fix for tagged pointer support our agreed approach was to sign
extend user-space address after clearing tag bits. This is not same
for all architectures and this patch allows sign extension for
addresses on targets which specifically set significant_addr_bit.
More information about patch that caused the issues and discussion
around tagged pointer support can be found in links below:

* gdbarch.sh (significant_addr_bit): Default to zero when
not set by target architecture.
* gdbarch.c: Re-generated.
* utils.c (address_significant): Update.
Since we use obstacks with objects that are not default constructible,
we sometimes need to manually call the constructor by hand using
placement new:
foo *f = obstack_alloc (obstack, sizeof (foo));
f = new (f) foo;
It's possible to use allocate_on_obstack instead, but there are types
that we sometimes want to allocate on an obstack, and sometimes on the
regular heap. This patch introduces a utility to make this pattern
simpler if allocate_on_obstack is not an option:
foo *f = obstack_new<foo> (obstack);
Right now there's only one usage (in tdesc_data_init).
To help catch places where we would forget to call new when allocating
such an object on an obstack, this patch also poisons some other methods
of allocating an instance of a type on an obstack:
- OBSTACK_ZALLOC/OBSTACK_CALLOC
- XOBNEW/XOBNEW
- GDBARCH_OBSTACK_ZALLOC/GDBARCH_OBSTACK_CALLOC
Unfortunately, there's no way to catch wrong usages of obstack_alloc.
By pulling on that string though, it tripped on allocating struct
template_symbol using OBSTACK_ZALLOC. The criterion currently used to
know whether it's safe to "malloc" an instance of a struct is whether it
is a POD. Because it inherits from struct symbol, template_symbol is
not a POD. This criterion is a bit too strict however, it should still
safe to allocate memory for a template_symbol and memset it to 0. We
didn't use is_trivially_constructible as the criterion in the first
place only because it is not available in gcc < 5. So here I considered
two alternatives:
1. Relax that criterion to use std::is_trivially_constructible and add a
bit more glue code to make it work with gcc < 5
2. Continue pulling on the string and change how the symbol structures
are allocated and initialized
I managed to do both, but I decided to go with #1 to keep this patch
simpler and more focused. When building with a compiler that does not
have is_trivially_constructible, the check will just not be enforced.

This removes the long_long_align_bit gdbarch attribute in favor of
type_align. This uncovered two possible issues.
First, arc-tdep.c claimed that long long alignment was 32 bits, but as
discussed on the list, ARC has a maximum alignment of 32 bits, so I've
added an arc_type_align function to account for this.
Second, jit.c, the sole user of long_long_align_bit, was confusing
"long long" with uint64_t. The relevant structure is defined in the
JIT API part of the manual as:
struct jit_code_entry
{
struct jit_code_entry *next_entry;
struct jit_code_entry *prev_entry;
const char *symfile_addr;
uint64_t symfile_size;
};
I've changed this code to use uint64_t.

With version 7.3 GCC supports new options
-mindirect-branch=<choice>
-mfunction-return=<choice>
The choices are:
keep behaves as before
thunk jumps through a thunk
thunk-external jumps through an external thunk
thunk-inline jumps through an inlined thunk
For thunk and thunk-external, GDB would, on a call to the thunk, step into
the thunk and then resume to its caller assuming that this is an
undebuggable function. On a return thunk, GDB would stop inside the
thunk.
Make GDB step through such thunks instead.
Before:
Temporary breakpoint 1, main ()
at gdb.base/step-indirect-call-thunk.c:37
37 x = apply (inc, 41);
(gdb) s
apply (op=0x80483e6 <inc>, x=41)
at gdb.base/step-indirect-call-thunk.c:29
29 return op (x);
(gdb)
30 }
After:
Temporary breakpoint 1, main ()
at gdb.base/step-indirect-call-thunk.c:37
37 x = apply (inc, 41);
(gdb) s
apply (op=0x80483e6 <inc>, x=41)
at gdb.base/step-indirect-call-thunk.c:29
29 return op (x);
(gdb)
inc (x=41) at gdb.base/step-indirect-call-thunk.c:23
23 return x + 1;
This is independent of the step-mode. In order to step into the thunk,
you would need to use stepi.
When stepping over an indirect call thunk, GDB would first step through
the thunk, then recognize that it stepped into a sub-routine and resume to
the caller (of the thunk). Not sure whether this is worth optimizing.
Thunk detection is implemented via gdbarch. I implemented the methods for
IA. Other architectures may run into unexpected fails.
The tests assume a fixed number of instruction steps to reach a thunk.
This depends on the compiler as well as the architecture. They may need
adjustments when we add support for more architectures. Or we can simply
drop those tests that cover being able to step into thunks using
instruction stepping.
When using an older GCC, the tests will fail to build and will be reported
as untested:

pseudo registers are either from raw registers or memory, so
gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and pseudo_register_read_value
should have regcache object which only have read methods. In other
words, we should disallow writing to regcache in these two gdbarch
methods. In order to apply this restriction, this patch adds a new
class readable_regcache, derived from reg_buffer, and it only has
raw_read and cooked_read methods. regcache is derived from
readable_regcache. This patch also passes readable_regcache instead of
regcache to gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and
pseudo_register_read_value.
This patch moves raw_read* and cooked_read* methods to readable_regcache,
which is straightforward. One thing not straightforward is that I split
regcache::xfer_part to readable_regcache::read_part and regcache::write_part,
because readable_regcache can only have methods to read.
readable_regcache is an abstract base class, and it has a pure virtual
function raw_update, because I don't want readable_regcache know where
these raw registers are from. They can be from either the target
(readwrite regcache) or the regcache itself (readonly regcache).

ARMv8 supports tagged address, that is, the top one byte in address
is ignored. It is always enabled on aarch64-linux. See
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/tagged-pointers.txt
The tag in the tagged address is modeled as non-significant bits in
address, so this patch adds a new gdbarch method significant_addr_bit and
clear the non-significant bits (the top byte in ARMv8) of the virtual
address at the point before passing address to target cache layer. IOW,
the address used in the target cache layer is already cleared.
Before this patch,
(gdb) x/x 0x0000000000411030

Note that I used address_significant in paddress, but it causes a
regression gdb.base/long_long.exp, because gdb clears the non-significant
bits in address, but test still expects them.

Previously the core_xfer_partial method used core_get_siginfo to handle
TARGET_OBJECT_SIGNAL_INFO requests. However, core_get_siginfo looked for
Linux-specific sections in the core file. To support fetching siginfo
from cores on other systems, add a new gdbarch method (`core_xfer_siginfo`)
and move the body of the existing core_get_siginfo into a
linux_core_xfer_siginfo implementation of this method in linux-tdep.c.

As Pedro commented on the patch "Change field separator in gdbarch.sh",
this commented out definition is probably not useful and should be
removed. It has been commented out for basically forever, and it
probably serves the same intent as addressable_memory_unit_size.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.sh: Remove commented out definition of
TARGET_CHAR_BIT.
* gdbarch.h: Re-generate.
The fields in the description of the gdbarch interface are separated
using colons. That becomes a problem if we want to use things like
std::vector in it. This patch changes the field separator to use
semicolons instead.
I think there's very little chance we'll ever want to use a semicolon in
one of the fields, but if you think another character would be more
appropriate, let me know.

* gdbarch.sh: Use semi-colon as field separator instead of colon.

Recently a feature called "return address signing" has been added to GCC to
prevent stack smash stack on AArch64. For details please refer:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-01/msg00376.html
GDB needs to be aware of this feature so it can restore the original return
address which is critical for unwinding.
On compiler side, whenever return address, i.e. LR register, is mangled or
restored by hardware instruction, compiler is expected to generate a
DW_CFA_AARCH64_negate_ra_state to toggle return address signing status.
DW_CFA_AARCH64_negate_ra_state is using the same CFI number and
therefore need to be multiplexed with DW_CFA_GNU_window_save which was designed
for SPARC.
A new gdbarch method "execute_dwarf_cfa_vendor_op" is introduced by this patch.
It's parameters has been restricted to those only needed by SPARC and AArch64
for multiplexing DW_CFA_GNU_window_save which is a CFI operation takes none
operand. Should any further DWARF CFI operation want to be multiplexed in the
future, the parameter list can be extended. Below is the current function
prototype.
typedef int (gdbarch_execute_dwarf_cfa_vendor_op_ftype)
(struct gdbarch *gdbarch, gdb_byte op, struct dwarf2_frame_state *fs);
DW_CFA_GNU_window_save support for SPARC is migrated to this new gdbarch

GDB is currently not aware that wchar_t is a built-in type in C++
mode. This is usually not a problem because the debug info describes
the type, so when you have a program loaded, you don't notice this.
However, if you try expressions involving wchar_t before a program is
loaded, gdb errors out:
(gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) p L"hello"
No type named wchar_t.
(gdb) ptype L"hello"
No type named wchar_t.
This commit teaches gdb about the type. After:
(gdb) p (wchar_t)-1
$1 = -1 L'\xffffffff'
(gdb) p L"hello"
$2 = L"hello"
(gdb) ptype L"hello"
type = wchar_t [6]
Unlike char16_t/char32_t, unfortunately, the underlying type of
wchar_t is implementation dependent, both size and signness. So this
requires adding a couple new gdbarch hooks.
I grepped the GCC code base for WCHAR_TYPE and WCHAR_TYPE_SIZE, and it
seems to me that the majority of the ABIs have a 4-byte signed
wchar_t, so that's what I made the default for GDB too. And then I
looked for which ports have a 16-bit and/or unsigned wchar_t, and made
GDB follow suit.

This patch starts from the desire to eliminate
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete, but then goes beyond. It makes ui_file &
friends a real C++ class hierarchy, and switches temporary
ui_file-like objects to stack-based allocation.
- mem_fileopen -> string_file
mem_fileopen is replaced with a new string_file class that is treated
as a value class created on the stack. This alone eliminates most
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete calls, and, simplifies code a whole lot
(diffstat shows around 1k loc dropped.)
string_file's internal buffer is a std::string, thus the "string" in
the name. This simplifies the implementation much, compared to
mem_fileopen, which managed growing its internal buffer manually.
- ui_file_as_string, ui_file_strdup, ui_file_obsavestring all gone
The new string_file class has a string() method that provides direct
writable access to the internal std::string buffer. This replaced
ui_file_as_string, which forced a copy of the same data the stream had
inside. With direct access via a writable reference, we can instead
move the string out of the string_stream, avoiding deep string
copying.
Related, ui_file_xstrdup calls are replaced with xstrdup'ping the
stream's string, and ui_file_obsavestring is replaced by
obstack_copy0.
With all those out of the way, getting rid of the weird ui_file_put
mechanism was possible.
- New ui_file::printf, ui_file::puts, etc. methods
These simplify / clarify client code. I considered splitting
client-code changes, like these, e.g.:
- stb = mem_fileopen ();
- fprintf_unfiltered (stb, "%s%s%s",
- _("The valid values are:\n"),
- regdesc,
- _("The default is \"std\"."));
+ string_file stb;
+ stb.printf ("%s%s%s",
+ _("The valid values are:\n"),
+ regdesc,
+ _("The default is \"std\"."));
In two steps, with the first step leaving fprintf_unfiltered (etc.)
calls in place, and only afterwards do a pass to change all those to
call stb.printf etc.. I didn't do that split, because (when I tried),
it turned out to be pointless make-work: the first pass would have to
touch the fprintf_unfiltered line anyway, to replace "stb" with
"&stb".
- gdb_fopen replaced with stack-based objects
This avoids the need for cleanups or unique_ptr's. I.e., this:
struct ui_file *file = gdb_fopen (filename, "w");
if (filename == NULL)
perror_with_name (filename);
cleanups = make_cleanup_ui_file_delete (file);
// use file.
do_cleanups (cleanups);
is replaced with this:
stdio_file file;
if (!file.open (filename, "w"))
perror_with_name (filename);
// use file.
- odd contorsions in null_file_write / null_file_fputs around when to
call to_fputs / to_write eliminated.
- Global null_stream object
A few places that were allocating a ui_file in order to print to
"nowhere" are adjusted to instead refer to a new 'null_stream' global
stream.
- TUI's tui_sfileopen eliminated. TUI's ui_file much simplified
The TUI's ui_file was serving a dual purpose. It supported being used
as string buffer, and supported being backed by a stdio FILE. The
string buffer part is gone, replaced by using of string_file. The
'FILE *' support is now much simplified, by making the TUI's ui_file
inherit from stdio_file.
