-fsanitize=undefined complains about using operator~ on various enum
types that are used with DEF_ENUM_FLAGS_TYPE. This patch fixes these
problems by explicitly setting the base type for these enums to
unsigned. It also adds a static assert to enum_flags to ensure that
future enums used this way have an unsigned underlying type.

This patch started as an observation from valgrind that GDB appeared
to be loosing track of some memory associated with types. An example
valgrind stack would be:
24 bytes in 1 blocks are possibly lost in loss record 419 of 5,361
at 0x4C2EA1E: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:711)

When we look in make_function_type we find a call to TYPE_ZALLOC
(inside the INIT_FUNC_SPECIFIC macro). It is this call to TYPE_ZALLOC
that is allocating memory with xcalloc, that is then getting lost.
The problem is tht calling TYPE_ALLOC or TYPE_ZALLOC currently
allocates memory from either the objfile obstack or by using malloc.
The problem with this is that types are allocated either on the
objfile obstack, or on the gdbarch obstack.
As a result, if we discard a type associated with an objfile then
auxiliary data allocated with TYPE_(Z)ALLOC will be correctly
discarded. But, if we were ever to discard a gdbarch then any
auxiliary type data would be leaked. Right now there are very few
places in GDB where a gdbarch is ever discarded, but it shouldn't hurt
to close down these bugs as we spot them.
This commit ensures that auxiliary type data is allocated from the
same obstack as the type itself, which should reduce leaked memory.
The one problem case that I found with this change was in eval.c,
where in one place we allocate a local type structure, and then used
TYPE_ZALLOC to allocate some space for the type. This local type is
neither object file owned, nor gdbarch owned, and so the updated
TYPE_ALLOC code is unable to find an objstack to allocate space on.
My proposed solution for this issue is that the space should be
allocated with a direct call to xzalloc. We could extend TYPE_ALLOC
to check for type->gdbarch being null, and then fall back to a direct
call to xzalloc, however, I think that making this rare case of a
local type require special handling is not a bad thing, this serves to
highlight that clearing up the memory will require special handling
too.
This special case of a local type is interesting as the types owner
field (contained within the main_type) is completely null. While
reflecting on this I looked at how types use the get_type_arch
function. It seems clear that, based on how this is used, it is never
intended that null will be returned from this function. This only
goes to reinforce, how locally alloctaed types, with no owner, are
both special, and need to be handled carefully. To help spot errors
earlier, I added an assert into get_type_arch that the returned arch
is not null.
Inside gdbarch.c I found a few other places where auxiliary type data
was being allocated directly on the heap rather than on the types
obstack. I have fixed these to call TYPE_ALLOC now.
Finally, it is worth noting that as we don't clean up our gdbarch
objects yet, then this will not make much of an impact on the amount
of memory reported as lost at program termination time. Memory
allocated for auxiliary type information is still not freed, however,
it is now on the correct obstack. If we do ever start freeing our
gdbarch structures then the associated type data will be cleaned up
correctly.
Tested on X86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* eval.c (fake_method::fake_method): Call xzalloc directly for a
type that is neither object file owned, nor gdbarch owned.
* gdbtypes.c (get_type_gdbarch): Add an assert that returned
gdbarch is non-NULL.
(alloc_type_instance): Allocate non-objfile owned types on the
gdbarch obstack.
(copy_type_recursive): Allocate TYPE_FIELDS and TYPE_RANGE_DATA
using TYPE_ALLOC to ensure memory is allocated on the correct
obstack.
* gdbtypes.h (TYPE_ALLOC): Allocate space on either the objfile
obstack, or the gdbarch obstack.
(TYPE_ZALLOC): Rewrite using TYPE_ALLOC.
Add int24 and uint24. These are used by the upcoming S12Z target, but will be
needed for any arch which features 24 bit registers.
* gdb/gdbtypes.h (struct builtin_type): New members builtin_int24
and builtin_uint24;
* gdb/gdbtypes.c: Initialize them.
* gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo (Predefined Target Types): Mention types int24 and uint24.
TYPE_TAG_NAME has been an occasional source of confusion and bugs. It
seems to me that it is only useful for C and C++ -- but even there,
not so much, because at least with DWARF there doesn't seem to be any
way to wind up with a type where the name and the tag name are both
non-NULL and different.
So, this patch removes TYPE_TAG_NAME entirely. This should save a
little memory, but more importantly, it simplifies this part of gdb.
A few minor test suite adjustments were needed. In some situations
the new code does not yield identical output to the old code.

This removes a VEC from type.c, by using std::vector.
While doing this I also took the opportunity to change
types_deeply_equal to return bool. This caught some weird code in
typy_richcompare, now fixed.
And, since I was changing types_deeply_equal, it seemed like a good
idea to also change types_equal, so this patch includes that as well.
Tested by the buildbot.

This adds some basic type alignment support to gdb. It changes struct
type to store the alignment, and updates dwarf2read.c to handle
DW_AT_alignment. It also adds a new gdbarch method and updates

Subject: [PATCH] dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Compiling with Clang 6 shows these errors:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26610:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26618:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a

if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The code in question checks if there is any offset exceeding 32 bits,
and therefore if we need to use the 64-bit DWARF format when writing the
.debug_names section. The type we use currently to represent section
offsets is an unsigned int (32-bits), which means a value of this type
will never exceed 32 bits, hence the errors above.
There are many signs that we want to support 64-bits DWARF (although I
haven't tested), such as:
- We correctly read initial length fields (read_initial_length)
- We take that into account when reading offsets (read_offset_1)
- The check_dwarf64_offsets function
However, I don't see how it can work if sect_offset is a 32-bits type.
Every time we record a section offset, we risk truncating the value.
And if a file uses the 64-bit DWARF format, it's most likely because
there are such offset values that overflow 32 bits.
Because of this, I think the way forward is to change sect_offset to be
a uint64_t. It will be able to represent any offset, regardless of the
bitness of the DWARF info.
This patch was regtested on the buildbot.

GCC PR83906 [1] is about a GCC/libstdc++ GDB/Python type printer
testcase failing randomly, as shown by running (in libstdc++'s
testsuite):
make check RUNTESTFLAGS=prettyprinters.exp=80276.cc
in a loop. Sometimes you get this:
FAIL: libstdc++-prettyprinters/80276.cc whatis p4
I.e., this:
type = std::unique_ptr<std::vector<std::unique_ptr<std::list<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >>[]>>[99]>
instead of this:
type = std::unique_ptr<std::vector<std::unique_ptr<std::list<std::string>[]>>[99]>
Jonathan Wakely tracked it on the printer side to this bit in
libstdc++'s type printer:
if self.type_obj == type_obj:
return strip_inline_namespaces(self.name)
This assumes the two types resolve to the same gdb.Type but some times
the comparison unexpectedly fails.
Running the testcase manually under Valgrind finds the problem in GDB:

That "bcmp" call is really a memcmp call in check_types_equal. The
problem is that gdb is memcmp'ing two objects that are equal in value:
(top-gdb) p *TYPE_RANGE_DATA (type1)
$1 = {low = {kind = PROP_CONST, data = {const_val = 0, baton = 0x0}}, high = {kind = PROP_CONST, data = {const_val = 15, baton = 0xf}}, flag_upper_bound_is_count = 0,
flag_bound_evaluated = 0}
(top-gdb) p *TYPE_RANGE_DATA (type2)
$2 = {low = {kind = PROP_CONST, data = {const_val = 0, baton = 0x0}}, high = {kind = PROP_CONST, data = {const_val = 15, baton = 0xf}}, flag_upper_bound_is_count = 0,
flag_bound_evaluated = 0}
but differ in padding. Notice the 4-byte hole:
(top-gdb) ptype /o range_bounds
/* offset | size */ type = struct range_bounds {
/* 0 | 16 */ struct dynamic_prop {
/* 0 | 4 */ dynamic_prop_kind kind;
/* XXX 4-byte hole */
/* 8 | 8 */ union dynamic_prop_data {
/* 8 */ LONGEST const_val;
/* 8 */ void *baton;
/* total size (bytes): 8 */
} data;
which is filled with garbage:

In some cases objects of type range_bounds are memset when allocated,
but then their dynamic_prop low/high fields are copied over from some
template dynamic_prop object that wasn't memset. E.g.,
create_static_range_type's low/high locals are left with garbage in
the padding, and then that padding is copied over to the range_bounds
object's low/high fields.
At first, I considered making sure to always memset range_bounds
objects, thinking that maybe type objects are being put in some bcache
instance somewhere. But then I hacked bcache/bcache_full to poison
non-pod types, and made dynamic_prop a non-pod, and GDB still
compiled.
So given that, it seems safest to not assume padding will always be
memset, and instead treat them as regular value types, implementing
(in)equality operators and using those instead of memcmp.
This fixes the random FAILs in GCC's testcase.

(create_array_type_with_stride): Update.
* dwarf2read.c (set_die_type): Update.
This patch adds support for DW_AT_byte_stride, using Ada as one
example of where this would be useful. However, the implementation
is language-agnostic.
Consider the following Ada code:
procedure Nested (L, U : Integer) is
subtype Small_Type is Integer range L .. U;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := L) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
A1 : Array_Type :=
(1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
procedure Discard (R : Record_Type) is
begin
null;
end Discard;
begin
Discard (A1 (1)); -- STOP
end;
It defines an array A1 of Record_Type, which is a variant record
type whose maximum size actually depends on the value of the
parameters passed when calling Nested. As a result, the stride
of the array A1 cannot be known statically, which leads the compiler
to generate a dynamic DW_AT_byte_stride attribute for our type.
Here is what the debugging info looks like with GNAT:
.uleb128 0x10 # (DIE (0x14e) DW_TAG_array_type)
.long .LASF17 # DW_AT_name: "foo__nested__T18b"

This patch enhances GDB to handle this dynamic byte stride attribute
by first adding a new dynamic_prop_node_kind (DYN_PROP_BYTE_STRIDE)
to store the array dynamic stride info (when dynamic). It then enhances
the dynamic type resolver to handle this dynamic property.
Before applying this patch, trying to print the value of some of
A1's elements after having stopped at the "STOP" comment does not
work. For instance:
(gdb) p a1(2)
Cannot access memory at address 0x80000268dec0
With this patch applied, GDB now prints the value of all 3 elements
correctly:
(gdb) print A1(1)
$1 = (i => 0, s => "")
(gdb) print A1(2)
$2 = (i => 1, s => "A")
(gdb) print A1(3)
$3 = (i => 2, s => "AB")

GDB currently does not track types defined in classes. Consider:
class A
{
public:
class B
{
public:
class C { };
};
};
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
<no data fields>
}
This patch changes this behavior so that GDB records these nested types
and displays them to the user when he has set the (new) "print type"
option "nested-type-limit."
Example:
(gdb) set print type nested-type-limit 1
(gdb) ptype A
type = class A {
<no data fields>
class A::B {
<no data fields>
};
}
(gdb) set print type nested-type-limit 2
type = class A {
<no data fields>
class A::B {
<no data fields>
class A::B::C {
<no data fields>
};
};
}
By default, the code maintains the status quo, that is, it will not print
any nested type definitions at all.
Testing is carried out via cp_ptype_class which required quite a bit of
modification to permit recursive calling (for the nested types). This
was most easily facilitated by turning the ptype command output into a
queue. Upshot: the test suite now has stack and queue data structures that
may be used by test writers.

This patch introduces the new set of target floating-point handling routines
in target-float.{c,h}. In the end, the intention is that this file will
contain support for all operations in target FP format, fully replacing
both the current doublest.{c,h} and dfp.{c,h}.
To begin with, this patch only adds a target_float_is_zero routine,
which handles the equivalent of decimal_is_zero for both binary and
decimal FP. For the binary case, to avoid conversion to DOUBLEST,
this is implemented using the floatformat_classify routine.
However, it turns out that floatformat_classify actually has a bug
(it was not used to check for zero before), so this is fixed as well.
The new routine is used in both value_logical_not and valpy_nonzero.
There is one extra twist: the code previously used value_as_double
to convert to DOUBLEST and then compare against zero. That routine
performs an extra task: it detects invalid floating-point values
and raises an error. In any place where value_as_double is removed
in favor of some target-float.c routine, we need to replace that check.
To keep this check centralized in one place, I've added a new routine
is_floating_value, which returns a boolean determining whether a
value's type is floating point (binary or decimal), and if so, also
performs the validity check. Since we need to check whether a value
is FP before calling any of the target-float routines anyway, this
seems a good place to add the check without much code size overhead.
In some places where we only want to check for floating-point types
and not perform a validity check (e.g. for the *output* of an operation),
we can use the new is_floating_type routine (in gdbarch) instead.
The validity check itself is done by a new target_float_is_valid
routine in target-float, encapsulating floatformat_is_valid.

For historical reasons, the TYPE_FLOATFORMAT element is still set to hold
an array of two floatformat structs, one for big-endian and the other for
little-endian. When accessing the element via floatformat_from_type,
the code would check the type's byte order and return the appropriate
floatformat.
However, these days this is quite unnecessary, since the type's byte order
is already known at the time the type is allocated and the floatformat is
installed into TYPE_FLOATFORMAT. Therefore, we can just install the correct
version here.
Also, moves the (now trivially simple) floatformat_from_type accessor to
gdbtypes.{c,h}, since it doesn't really need to be in doublest.c now.

This changes the interfaces to init_type and arch_type to take the
type length in bits as input (instead of as bytes). The routines
assert that the length is a multiple of TARGET_CHAR_BIT.
For consistency, arch_flags_type is changed likewise, so that now
all type creation interfaces always use length in bits.
All callers are updated in the straightforward manner.
The assert actually found a bug in read_range_type, where the
init_integer_type routine was called with a wrong argument (probably
a bug introduced with the conversion to use init_integer_type).

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}

The following patch fixes several outstanding overload resolution problems
with rvalue references and cv qualifiers in the test suite. The tests for
these problems typically passed with one compiler version and failed with
another. This behavior occurs because of the ordering of the overloaded
functions in the debug info. So the first best match "won out" over the
a subsequent better match.
One of the bugs addressed by this patch is the failure of rank_one_type to
account for type equality of two overloads based on CV qualifiers. This was
leading directly to problems evaluating rvalue reference overload quality,
but it is also highlighted in gdb.cp/oranking.exp, where two test KFAIL as
a result of this shortcoming.
I found the overload resolution code committed with the rvalue reference
patch (f9aeb8d49) needlessly over-complicated, and I have greatly simplified
it. This fixes some KFAILing tests in gdb.exp/rvalue-ref-overload.exp.

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.

A while ago, back when GDB was a C program, the sect_offset and
cu_offset types were made structs in order to prevent incorrect mixing
of those offsets. Now that we require C++11, we can make them
integers again, while keeping the safety, by exploiting "enum class".
We can add a bit more safety, even, by defining operators that the
types _should_ support, helping making the suspicious uses stand out
more.
Getting at the underlying type is done with the new to_underlying
function added by the previous patch, which also helps better spot
where do we need to step out of the safety net. Mostly, that's around
parsing the DWARF, and when we print the offset for complaint/debug
purposes. But there are other occasional uses.
Since we have to define the sect_offset/cu_offset types in a header
anyway, I went ahead and generalized/library-fied the idea of "offset"
types, making it trivial to add more such types if we find a use. See
common/offset-type.h and the DEFINE_OFFSET_TYPE macro.
I needed a couple generaly-useful preprocessor bits (e.g., yet another
CONCAT implementation), so I started a new common/preprocessor.h file.
I included units tests covering the "offset" types API. These are
mostly compile-time tests, using SFINAE to check that expressions that
shouldn't compile (e.g., comparing unrelated offset types) really are
invalid and would fail to compile. This same idea appeared in my
pending enum-flags revamp from a few months ago (though this version
is a bit further modernized compared to what I had posted), and I plan
on reusing the "check valid expression" bits added here in that
series, so I went ahead and defined the CHECK_VALID_EXPR macro in its
own header -- common/valid-expr.h. I think that's nicer regardless.
I was borderline between calling the new types "offset" types, or
"index" types, BTW. I stuck with "offset" simply because that's what
we're already calling them, mostly.

This adds a number of helper routines for creating objfile-owned types;
these correspond 1:1 to the already existing helper routines for creating
gdbarch-owned types, and are intended to be used instead of init_type.
A shared fragment of init_float_type and arch_float_type is extracted into
a separate subroutine verify_subroutine.
The commit also brings the interface of init_type in line with the one for
arch_type. In particular, this means removing the FLAGS argument; callers
now set the required flags directly. (Since most callers use the new
helper routines, very few callers actually need to set any additional
flags directly any more.)
Note that this means all the TYPE_FLAGS_... defined are no longer needed
anywhere; they will be removed by a follow-on commit.
All users of init_type are changed to use on of the new helpers where
possible. No functional change intended.

Fortran supports dynamic types for which bounds, size and location
can vary during their lifetime. As a result of the dynamic
behaviour, they have to be resolved at every query.

is dynamic.

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

This patch tries to clean up a bit the blur around the length field in
struct type, regarding its use with architectures with non-8-bits

target addressable memory units.

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

This is the second part of enhancing the debugger to print the value
of arrays of records whose size is variable when only standard DWARF
info is available (no GNAT encoding). For instance:
subtype Small_Type is Integer range 0 .. 10;
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
A1 : Array_Type := (1 => (I => 0, S => <>),
2 => (I => 1, S => "A"),
3 => (I => 2, S => "AB"));
Currently, GDB prints the following output:
(gdb) p a1
$1 = (
The error happens while the ada-valprint module is trying to print
the value of an element of our array. Because of the fact that
the array's element (type Record_Type) has a variant size, the DWARF
info for our array provide the array's stride:
<1><749>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<74a> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xb6d): pck__T18s
<74e> DW_AT_byte_stride : 16
<74f> DW_AT_type : <0x6ea>
And because our array has a stride, ada-valprint treats it the same
way as packed arrays (see ada-valprint.c::ada_val_print_array):
if (TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, 0) > 0)
val_print_packed_array_elements (type, valaddr, offset_aligned,
0, stream, recurse,
original_value, options);
The first thing that we should notice in the call above is that
the "valaddr" buffer and the associated offset (OFFSET_ALIGNED)
is passed, but that the corresponding array's address is not.
This can be explained by looking inside val_print_packed_array_elements,
where we see that the function unpacks each element of our array from
the buffer alone (ada_value_primitive_packed_val), and then prints
the resulting artificial value instead:
v0 = ada_value_primitive_packed_val (NULL, valaddr + offset,
(i0 * bitsize) / HOST_CHAR_BIT,
(i0 * bitsize) % HOST_CHAR_BIT,
bitsize, elttype);
[...]
val_print (elttype, value_contents_for_printing (v0),
value_embedded_offset (v0), 0, stream,
recurse + 1, v0, &opts, current_language);
Of particular interest, here, is the fact that we call val_print
with a null address, which is OK, since we're providing a buffer
instead (value_contents_for_printing). Also, providing an address
might not always possible, since packing could place elements at
boundaries that are not byte-aligned.
Things go south when val_print tries to see if there is a pretty-printer
that could be applied. In particular, one of the first things that
the Python pretty-printer does is to create a value using our buffer,
and the given address, which in this case is null (see call to
value_from_contents_and_address in gdbpy_apply_val_pretty_printer).
value_from_contents_and_address, in turn immediately tries to resolve
the type, using the given address, which is null. But, because our
array element is a record containing an array whose bound is the value
of one of its elements (the "s" component), the debugging info for
the array's upper bound is a reference...
<3><71a>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<71b> DW_AT_type : <0x724>
<71f> DW_AT_upper_bound : <0x703>
... to component "i" of our record...
<2><703>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_member)
<704> DW_AT_name : i
<706> DW_AT_decl_file : 2
<707> DW_AT_decl_line : 6
<708> DW_AT_type : <0x6d1>
<70c> DW_AT_data_member_location: 0
... where that component is located at offset 0 of the start
of the record. dwarf2_evaluate_property correctly determines
the offset where to load the value of the bound from, but then
tries to read that value from inferior memory using the address
that was given, which is null. See case PROP_ADDR_OFFSET in
dwarf2_evaluate_property:
val = value_at (baton->offset_info.type,
pinfo->addr + baton->offset_info.offset);
This triggers a memory error, which then causes the printing to terminate.
Since there are going to be situations where providing an address
alone is not going to be sufficient (packed arrays where array elements
are not stored at byte boundaries), this patch fixes the issue by
enhancing the type resolution to take both address and data. This
follows the same principle as the val_print module, where both
address and buffer ("valaddr") can be passed as arguments. If the data
has already been fetched from inferior memory (or provided by the
debugging info in some form -- Eg a constant), then use that data
instead of reading it from inferior memory.
Note that this should also be a good step towards being able to handle
dynamic types whose value is stored outside of inferior memory
(Eg: in a register).
With this patch, GDB isn't able to print all of A1, but does perform
a little better:
(gdb) p a1
$1 = ((i => 0, s => , (i => 1, s => , (i => 2, s => )
There is another issue which is independent of this one, and will
therefore be patched separately.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.h (struct property_addr_info): Add "valaddr" field.
* dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_evaluate_property): Add handling of
pinfo->valaddr.
* gdbtypes.h (resolve_dynamic_type): Add "valaddr" parameter.
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_struct): Set pinfo.valaddr.
(resolve_dynamic_type_internal): Set pinfo.valaddr.
Add handling of addr_stack->valaddr.
(resolve_dynamic_type): Add "valaddr" parameter.
Set pinfo.valaddr field.
* ada-lang.c (ada_discrete_type_high_bound): Update call to
resolve_dynamic_type.
(ada_discrete_type_low_bound): Likewise.
* findvar.c (default_read_var_value): Likewise.
* value.c (value_from_contents_and_address): Likewise.
struct dynamic_prop_list is declared as follow:
struct dynamic_prop_list
{
[...]
/* The dynamic property itself. */
struct dynamic_prop *prop;
[...]
};
In this case, the pointer indirection is unnecessary and costing us,
for each dynamic property, the memory needed to store one pointer.
This patch removes this pointer indirection, savin us a tiny bit of
memory, as well as reduces a bit the complexity by removing the need
to allocate memory for the property, as the allocation is now part
of the struct itself.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (struct dynamic_prop_list) <prop>: Remove
pointer indirection.
* gdbtypes.c (get_dyn_prop): Adjust, following change above.
(add_dyn_prop, copy_dynamic_prop_list): Likewise.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
The terminology we've been using is (dynamic) "property" rather than
"attribute", so this patch renames an enum to use the same terminology.
No behavior change.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (enum dynamic_prop_node_kind) <DYN_PROP_DATA_LOCATION>:
Renames DYN_ATTR_DATA_LOCATION.
(TYPE_DATA_LOCATION): Use DYN_PROP_DATA_LOCATION instead of
DYN_ATTR_DATA_LOCATION.
* dwarf2read.c (set_die_type): Use DYN_PROP_DATA_LOCATION
instead of DYN_ATTR_DATA_LOCATION.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
This patch introduces a linked list for dynamic attributes of a type.
This is a pre-work for the Fortran dynamic array support. The Fortran
dynamic array support will add more dynamic attributes to a type.
As only a few types will have such dynamic attributes set, a linked
list is more efficient in terms of memory consumption than adding
multiple attributes to main_type.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_type_internal): Adapt
data_location usage to linked list.
(resolve_dynamic_type_internal): Adapt data_location to
linked list.
(get_dyn_prop, add_dyn_prop, copy_dynamic_prop_list): New function.
(copy_type_recursive, copy_type): Add copy of linked list.
* gdbtypes.h (enum dynamic_prop_node_kind): New enum.
(struct dynamic_prop_list): New struct.
* dwarf2read.c (set_die_type): Set data_location data.
In C, an enum or structure defined inside other structure has global
scope just like it had been defined outside the struct in the first
place. However, in C++, such a nested structure is given a name that
is nested inside the structure. This patch moves such affected
structures/enums out to global scope, so that code using them works
the same in C++ as it works today in C.
