This changes gdb_bfd_errmsg to return a std::string, removing a

This adds a "continue" response to the pager. If the user types "c"
in response to the pager prompt, pagination will be disabled for the

you type a command that produces a lot of output, and you don't want
to baby-sit it by typing "return" each time the prompt comes up.

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:

The function interp_ui_out simply calls the interp_ui_out method.
However, if it is passed a NULL interpreter, it first finds the

require callers to be more explicit.

This patch fixes tagged pointer support for AArch64 GDB. Linux kernel
debugging failure was reported after tagged pointer support was committed.
After a discussion around best path forward to manage tagged pointers
on GDB side we are going to disable tagged pointers support for
aarch64-none-elf-gdb because for non-linux applications we cant be
sure if tagged pointers will be used by MMU or not.
Also for aarch64-linux-gdb we are going to sign extend user-space
address after clearing tag bits. This will help debug both kernel
and user-space addresses based on information from linux kernel
documentation given below:
According to AArch64 memory map:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/memory.txt
"User addresses have bits 63:48 set to 0 while the kernel addresses have
the same bits set to 1."
According to AArch64 tagged pointers document:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/tagged-pointers.txt
The kernel configures the translation tables so that translations made
via TTBR0 (i.e. userspace mappings) have the top byte (bits 63:56) of
the virtual address ignored by the translation hardware. This frees up
this byte for application use.
Running gdb testsuite after applying this patch introduces no regressions
and tagged pointer test cases still pass.

Some unaligned watchpoints were currently missed.
On old kernels as specified in
kernel RFE: aarch64: ptrace: BAS: Support any contiguous range (edit)
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20207
after this patch some other unaligned watchpoints will get reported as false
positives.
With new kernels all the watchpoints should work exactly.
There may be a regresion that it now less merges watchpoints so that with
multiple overlapping watchpoints it may run out of the 4 hardware watchpoint
registers. But as discussed in the original thread GDB needs some generic
watchpoints merging framework to be used by all the target specific code.
Even current FSF GDB code does not merge it perfectly. Also with the more
precise watchpoints one can technically merge them less. And I do not think
it matters too much to improve mergeability only for old kernels.
Still even on new kernels some better merging logic would make sense.
There remains one issue:
kernel-4.15.14-300.fc27.armv7hl
FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: continue
FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: continue
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Unexpected error setting watchpoint: Invalid argument.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: continue
But that looks as a kernel bug to me.
(1) It is not a regression by this patch.
(2) It is unrelated to this patch.

Enabling "set debug lin-lwp 1" with the MI interpreter doesn't work.
When the sigchld_handler function wants to print a debug output
("sigchld\n"), it uses ui_file_write_async_safe. This ends up in the
default implementation of ui_file::write_async_safe, which aborts GDB.
This patch implements the write_async_safe method for mi_console_file.
The "normal" MI output is line buffered, which means the output
accumulates in m_buffer until a \n is written, at which point it's
flushed in m_raw. The implementation of write_async_safe provided by
this patch bypasses this buffer and writes directly to m_raw. There are
two reasons for this:
(1) Appending to m_buffer (therefore to an std::string) is probably not
async-safe, as it may allocate memory.
(2) We may have a partial output already in m_buffer, so that would lead
to some nested MI output, not so great.
There is probably still a chance to have bad MI output, if
sigchld_handler is invoked in the middle of mi_console_file's flush, and
the line being flushed is only partially sent to m_raw. The solution
would probably be to block signals during flushing. Since this is only
used for debug output, I don't know if it's worth the effort to do that.
To implement write_async_safe, I needed to use the fputstrn_unfiltered,
which does the necessary escaping (e.g. replace \n with \\n). I started
by adding printchar's callback parameters to fputstrn_unfiltered, to be
able to pass async-safe versions of them. It's not easy to provide an
async-safe version of do_fprintf, but it turns out that we can easily
replace printchar's callbacks with a single do_fputc quite easily. The
async-safe version of do_fputc simply calls the underlying ui_file's
write_async_safe method.

I wanted to use streq with std::unique in another (upcoming) patch in
this seres, so I changed it to return bool. To my surprise, this lead
to regressions. The cause turned out to be that streq was used as an
htab callback -- by casting it to the correct function type. This
sort of cast is invalid, so this patch adds a variant which is
directly suitable for use by htab. (Note that I did not add an
overload, as I could not get that to work with template deduction in
the other patch.)

This commit moves the path manipulation routines found on utils.c to a
new common/pathstuff.c, and updates the Makefile.in's accordingly.
The routines moved are "gdb_realpath", "gdb_realpath_keepfile" and
"gdb_abspath".
This will be needed because gdbserver will have to call "gdb_abspath"
on my next patch, which implements a way to expand the path of the
inferior provided by the user in order to allow specifying just the
binary name when starting gdbserver, like:
$ gdbserver :1234 a.out
With the recent addition of the startup-with-shell feature on
gdbserver, this scenario doesn't work anymore if the user doesn't have
the current directory listed in the PATH variable.
I had to do a minor adjustment on "gdb_abspath" because we don't have
access to "tilde_expand" on gdbserver, so now the function is using
"gdb_tilde_expand" instead. Otherwise, the code is the same.
Regression tested on the BuildBot, without regressions.

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.

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.

Trying to set a breakpoint in a function with an ABI tag does not work
currently. E.g., debugging gdb itself, we see this with the
"string_printf" function:
(top-gdb) b string_print [TAB]
(top-gdb) b string_printf[abi:cxx11](char const*, ...) [RET]
No source file named string_printf[abi.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n])
Quoting doesn't help:
(top-gdb) b 'string_printf[abi:cxx11]'(char const*, ...)
malformed linespec error: unexpected string, "(char const*, ...)"
(top-gdb) b 'string_printf[abi:cxx11](char const*, ...)'
No source file named string_printf[abi.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n
This patch fixes this, and takes it a bit further.
The actual symbol name as demangled by libiberty's demangler is really
string_printf[abi:cxx11](char const*, ...)
however, this patch makes it possible to set the breakpoint with
string_printf(char const*, ...)
too. I.e., ignoring the ABI tag.
And to match, it teaches the completer to complete the symbol name
without the ABI tag, i.e.,
"string_pri<TAB>" -> "string_printf(char const*, ...)"
If however, you really want to break on a symbol with the tag, then
you simply start writing the tag, and GDB will preserve it, like:
"string_printf[a<TAB>" -> "string_printf[abi:cxx11](char const*, ...)"

* gdb.texinfo (Debugging C Plus Plus): Document setting
breakpoints in functions with ABI tags.
currently "b func tion" manages to set a breakpoint at "function" !
All these years I had never noticed this, but now that the linespec
completer actually works, this easily happens by accident, with:
"b func t<tab>"
expecting to get "thread", but getting instead:
"b func tion"
...
Also, this:
"b rettypefunc<int>"
manages to set a breakpoint on "rettype func<int>()".
These things happen due to strcmp_iw "magic".
Fix it by teaching strcmp_iw about when can it skip whitespace. This
required handling user-defined operators, and scope operators,
complicating the code a bit, unfortunately. I added unit tests for
all the corner cases I stumbled on, as I was developing this, and then
in the end wrote a testsuite testcase covering many of the same things
and more (to be added later).

Summary:
- This is preparation for supporting wild name matching on C++ too.
- This is also preparation for TAB-completion fixes.
- Makes symbol name matching (think strcmp_iw) be based on a per-language method.
- Merges completion and non-completion name comparison (think
language_ops::la_get_symbol_name_cmp generalized).
- Avoid re-hashing lookup name multiple times
- Centralizes preparing a name for lookup (Ada name encoding / C++ Demangling),
both completion and non-completion.
- Fixes Ada latent bug with verbatim name matches in expressions
- Makes ada-lang.c use common|symtab.c completion code a bit more.
Ada's wild matching basically means that
"(gdb) break foo"
will find all methods named "foo" in all packages. Translating to
C++, it's roughly the same as saying that "break klass::method" sets
breakpoints on all "klass::method" methods of all classes, no matter
the namespace. A following patch will teach GDB about fullname vs
wild matching for C++ too. This patch is preparatory work to get
there.
Another idea here is to do symbol name matching based on the symbol
language's algorithm. I.e., avoid dependency on current language set.
This allows for example doing
(gdb) b foo::bar< int > (<tab>
and having gdb name match the C++ symbols correctly even if the
current language is C or Assembly (or Rust, or Ada, or ...), which can
easily happen if you step into an Assembly/C runtime library frame.
By encapsulating all the information related to a lookup name in a
class, we can also cache hash computation for a given language in the
lookup name object, to avoid recomputing it over and over.
Similarly, because we don't really know upfront which languages the
lookup name will be matched against, for each language we store the
lookup name transformed into a search name. E.g., for C++, that means
demangling the name. But for Ada, it means encoding the name. This
actually forces us to centralize all the different lookup name
encoding in a central place, resulting in clearer code, IMO. See
e.g., the new ada_lookup_name_info class.
The lookup name -> symbol search name computation is also done only
once per language.
The old language->la_get_symbol_name_cmp / symbol_name_cmp_ftype are
generalized to work with both completion, and normal symbol look up.
At some point early on, I had separate completion vs non-completion
language vector entry points, but a single method ends up being better
IMO for simplifying things -- the more we merge the completion /
non-completion name lookup code paths, the less changes for bugs
causing completion vs normal lookup finding different symbols.
The ada-lex.l change is necessary because when doing
(gdb) p <UpperCase>
then the name that is passed to write_ write_var_or_type ->
ada_lookup_symbol_list misses the "<>", i.e., it's just "UpperCase",
and we end up doing a wild match against "UpperCase" lowercased by
ada_lookup_name_info's constructor. I.e., "uppercase" wouldn't ever
match "UpperCase", and the symbol lookup fails.
This wouldn't cause any regression in the testsuite, but I added a new
test that would pass before the patch and fail after, if it weren't
for that fix.
This is latent bug that happens to go unnoticed because that
particular path was inconsistent with the rest of Ada symbol lookup by
not lowercasing the lookup name.
Ada's symbol_completion_add is deleted, replaced by using common
code's completion_list_add_name. To make the latter work for Ada, we
needed to add a new output parameter, because Ada wants to return back
a custom completion candidates that are not the symbol name.
With this patch, minimal symbol demangled name hashing is made
consistent with regular symbol hashing. I.e., it now goes via the
language vector's search_name_hash method too, as I had suggested in a
previous patch.
dw2_expand_symtabs_matching / .gdb_index symbol names were a
challenge. The problem is that we have no way to telling what is the
language of each symbol name found in the index, until we expand the
corresponding full symbol, which is off course what we're trying to
avoid. Language information is simply not considered in the index
format... Since the symbol name hashing and comparison routines are
per-language, we now have a problem. The patch sorts this out by
matching each name against all languages. This is inneficient, and
indeed slows down completion several times. E.g., with:
$ cat script.cmd
set pagination off
set $count = 0
while $count < 400
complete b string_prin
printf "count = %d\n", $count
set $count = $count + 1
end
$ time gdb --batch -q ./gdb-with-index -ex "source script-string_printf.cmd"
I get, before patch (-O2, x86-64):
real 0m1.773s
user 0m1.737s
sys 0m0.040s
While after patch (-O2, x86-64):
real 0m9.843s
user 0m9.482s
sys 0m0.034s
However, the following patch will optimize this, and will actually
make this use case faster compared to the "before patch" above:

user 0m1.285s
sys 0m0.039s

With the growing number of selftests, I think it would be useful to be
able to run only a subset of the tests. This patch associates a name to
each registered selftest. It then allows doing something like:
(gdb) maintenance selftest aarch64
Running self-tests.
Running selftest aarch64-analyze-prologue.
Running selftest aarch64-process-record.
Ran 2 unit tests, 0 failed
or with gdbserver:
./gdbserver --selftest=aarch64
In both cases, only the tests that contain "aarch64" in their name are
ran. To help validate that the tests you want to run were actually ran,
it also prints a message with the test name before running each test.
Right now, all the arch-dependent tests are registered as a single test
of the selftests. To be able to filter those too, I made them
"first-class citizen" selftests. The selftest type is an interface,
with different implementations for "simple selftests" and "arch
selftests". The run_tests function simply iterates on that an invokes
operator() on each test.
I changed the tests data structure from a vector to a map, because
- it allows iterating in a stable (alphabetical) order
- it allows to easily verify if a test with a given name has been
registered, to avoid duplicates
There's also a new command "maintenance info selftests" that lists the
registered selftests.

Recent changes made gdb_stderr a macro:
#define gdb_stderr (*current_ui_gdb_stderr_ptr ())
and current_ui_gdb_stderr_ptr return this:
¤t_ui->m_gdb_stderr
The problem is that this is undefined if current_ui is NULL, which can
happen early on during gdb start up.
If we run into an error during early gdb start up then we write the
error message to gdb_stderr. However, if we are too early during the
start up then current_ui is NULL, and using the gdb_stderr macro
triggers undefined behaviour.
We try to avoid this using a check 'gdb_stderr == NULL' which was fine
before the recent changes, but now, still triggers undefined behaviour.
A better check is instead 'current_ui == NULL' which is what I use in
this patch.
Triggering this failure is pretty hard, most of the really early errors
are only triggered if pretty basic things are not as expected, for
example, if the default signal handlers are not as expected. Seeing one
of these errors trigger usually means that someone working on gdb has
made an incorrect change. Still, the errors are present in gdb, and
should we ever trigger one it would be nice if gdb didn't crash.
For testing this change I've been applying this patch which adds an
unconditional error into a function called early during gdb start up.
Later in the same function is a real error call which, in some
circumstances could be triggered:

(throw_perror_with_name, perror_warning_with_name): Update.
This changes gdb_realpath to return a unique_xmalloc_ptr and fixes up
the callers. This allows removing some cleanups. This change by
itself caused xfullpath.exp to fail; and attempting to fix that ran
into various problems (like .get() being optimized out); so this patch
also rewrites xfullpath.exp to be a C++ selftest instead.

After the previous patches in this series, make_cleanup_freeargv and
gdb_buildargv are now unused and can be removed.
ChangeLog
2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* utils.c (make_cleanup_freeargv, do_freeargv, gdb_buildargv):
Remove.
* utils.h (make_cleanup_freeargv, gdb_buildargv): Remove.
This introduces gdb_argv, a class wrapping an "argv" pointer; that is,
a pointer to a NULL-terminated array of char*, where both the array
and each non-NULL element in the array are xmalloc'd.
This patch then changes most users of gdb_buildargv to use gdb_argv
instead.

make_cleanup_free_so is used in a single spot. This patch introduces
a unique pointer wrapper for struct so_list, and changes this spot to
use it.

The explicit locations completer patch will need a strncmp_iw
function, that to strcmp_iw like strncmp is to strcmp. This patch
implements it.
(Unit tests added a bit further down in this series will exercise
this.)

(strncmp_iw_with_mode): ... this. Add string2_len and mode
parameters. Handle them.

(strcmp_iw): Reimplement as wrapper around strncmp_iw_with_mode.
* utils.h (strncmp_iw): Declare.
(strcmp_iw): Move describing comments here.
This commit eliminates make_cleanup_obstack_free, replacing it with a
new auto_obstack type that inherits obstack to add cdtors.
These changes in the parsers may not be obvious:
- obstack_init (&name_obstack);
- make_cleanup_obstack_free (&name_obstack);
+ name_obstack.clear ();
Here, the 'name_obstack' variable is a global. The change means that
the obstack's contents from a previous parse will stay around until
the next parsing starts. I.e., memory won't be reclaimed until then.
I don't think that's a problem, these objects don't really grow much
at all.
The other option I tried was to add a separate type that is like
auto_obstack but manages an external obstack, just for those cases. I
like the current approach better as that other approach adds more
boilerplate and yet another type to learn.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-06-27 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
