The "gdb-add-index" script has been resurrected on:
commit caf26be91a
Author: Samuel Bronson <naesten@gmail.com>
Date: Fri Nov 15 16:09:33 2013 -0500
Resurrect gdb-add-index as a contrib script
However, for some reason (I couldn't find it in the archives), only
the script has been checked-in; the Makefile parts responsible for
installing it in the system were left out. This commit fixes that, by
also resurrecting the Makefile and documentation bits.
This commit is part of our effort to upstream the local Fedora GDB
changes. With this commit, we'll only carry a very small
Fedora-specific modification to the script.

I had forgotten to convert the decimal output of 'ptype /o' to hex
(but still used a 0x prefix) for the KVE_PROTECTION constant defining
the offset of the 'kve_protection' field in the 'kinfo_vmentry'

proc mappings' for FreeBSD core dumps.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* fbsd-tdep.c (KVE_PROTECTION): Correct value.
This adds a testcase for the previous commit. The regression was
related to in-line step overs. The reason we didn't see it on native
x86-64/s390 GNU/Linux testing is that native debugging uses displaced
stepping by default (because native debugging defaults to "maint set
target-non-stop on"), unlike remote debugging.
So in order to trigger the bug with native debugging as well, the
testcase disables displaced stepping explicitly.
Also, instead of using watchpoints to trigger the regression, the
testcase uses a breakpoint at address 0, which should be more
portable.

Since this commit --
Fix PR18360 - internal error when using "interrupt -a"
(https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=c65d6b55)
-- the testsuite shows long delays on s390 with native-gdbserver when
executing certain tests, such as watchpoints.exp. These hangs have been
discussed before in the context of buildbot problems, see here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-12/msg00413.html
The problem can easily be triggered by stopping on a breakpoint, then
setting impossible watchpoints, and finally doing "continue". Then, after
having set the step-over state (in keep_going_pass_signal in infrun.c),
GDB tries to insert breakpoints and watchpoints into the inferior. This
fails, and the "continue" command is aborted. But the step-over state is
not cleared in this case, which causes future step-over attempts to be
skipped since GDB thinks that "we already have an in-line step-over
operation ongoing" (see start_step_over in infrun.c). Thus the next
"continue" just goes on to wait for events from the remote, which will
never occur.
The problem can also be reproduced on amd64 with native-gdbserver, using
the following change to watchpoints.exp:
-- >8 --
--- a/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoints.exp
+++ b/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/watchpoints.exp
@@ -61,2 +61,3 @@ with_test_prefix "before inferior start" {
gdb_test "watch ival3" ".*" ""
+ gdb_test "watch *(char \[256\] *) main"
-- >8 --
To fix the hang, this patch clears the step-over info when
insert_breakpoints has failed. Of course, with native-gdbserver the
watchpoints.exp test case still causes many FAILs on s390, because
gdbserver does not support watchpoints for that target. This is a
separate issue.

When processing a section that is a member of a group, the group
that contains it is looked up using a linear search. The resulting
O(n^2) complexity causes significant performance issues when
dealing with object files with very many groups.
By remembering the index of the last found group and restarting
the next search from that index, the search instead becomes O(n)
in common cases.
* elf.c (setup_group): Optimize search for group by remembering
last found group and restarting search at that index.
* elf-bfd.h (struct elf_obj_tdata): Add group_search_offset field.
Occasionally I build an out-of-tree a.out target (m68k-amigaos). After
a system upgrade which included a newer compiler (clang 4) the build
produces warnings like this:
warning: macro expansion producing 'defined' has undefined behavior
[-Wexpansion-to-defined]
This is caused by the macro gas/config/aout_gnu.h:USE_EXTENDED_RELOC.
Since it is in a header file, the warning triggers for several files.
I am unsure what solution is preferable, thus I am suggesting two
patches:
a) keep the offending macro but define it explicitly to 0 and 1
b) replace the macro usage with its value where it is used.
Either patch removes the warning for clang. I did not check with a
recent GCC.
* gas/config/aout_gnu.h (USE_EXTENDED_RELOC): Explicitly
define to 0 and 1. Remove a dangling reference to "AMD 29000"
in a comment.
When I added this test I said I'd look at fixing more targets.
That hasn't happened yet, so xfail to tidy results.
* testsuite/ld-elf/elf.exp: xfail "pr22374 function pointer

The default should be bfd_link_common_skip_none, as in the original

* aoutx.h (aout_link_check_ar_symbols): Remove default and handle
bfd_link_common_skip_none in switch.
PowerPC64 has its own mark_dynamic_ref, which needs the same change as
made by d664fd41e1 to the generic ELF version. Some other targets
discard more than just .data, so allow for that too in expected ld

One of assertions in _bfd_mips_elf_final_link could be triggered by

Currently we have no obvious way to revert the action of the "-z defs"
command line option. The "--unresolved-symbols=ignore-in-object-files"
does pretty much what is needed, but it is non-obvious and it also
touches the setting for reporting unresolved symbol references from
shared libraries. So I am proposing adding a "-z undefs" option to be
the inverse of "-z defs". (I thought that "-z nodefs" might be
confusing since it implies banning all definitions, rather than
allowing them).
In addition the description of the "-z defs" option in the linker
documentation is misleading in one place, where it says:
'defs'
Disallows undefined symbols in object files. Undefined
symbols in shared libraries are still allowed.
whereas later on it gets it right:
'-z defs'
Report unresolved symbol references from regular object files.
This is done even if the linker is creating a non-symbolic shared
library. The switch '--[no-]allow-shlib-undefined' controls the
behaviour for reporting unresolved references found in shared
libraries being linked in.

Trying to use gdb_compile_shlib with the shlib= option to build a shared
library that depends on another shared library does not work as of
today. See:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-10/msg00733.html
The problem is that building the lib is done in two steps, compilation
(.c -> .o) and linking (.o -> .so) and the shlib= options are passed to
both steps. When compiling the object file (.o), it results in gcc
complaining:
gcc: warning: .../solib-vanish-lib2.so: linker input file unused because linking not done
The first solution I came up with was to filter the options inside
gdb_compile_shlib to remove the shlib= options from the options we pass
when compiling the .o file.
I then thought it would be simpler to ignore the shlib= options in
gdb_compile when not building an executable (the executable category
includes the shared libraries). For other compilation types (object
file, preprocess and generate assembly), it doesn't make sense to add
shared libraries to the source file list.
Regtested on the buildbot.

Subject: Don't ever Quit out of resume
caused regressions on software single-set targets, specifically:

FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted off: auto-hw on: single-step breakpoint is not left behind

FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted on: auto-hw on: single-step breakpoint is not left behind
and indeed detailed logs indicate a breakpoint is left lingering, e.g.:

(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted off: auto-hw off: single-step breakpoint is not left behind
as at commit d930703d68ae^.
Before commit d930703d68, we had a cleanup installed in 'resume'
that would delete single-step breakpoints on error:
/* Resuming. */
/* Things to clean up if we QUIT out of resume (). */
static void
resume_cleanups (void *ignore)
{
if (!ptid_equal (inferior_ptid, null_ptid))
delete_single_step_breakpoints (inferior_thread ());
normal_stop ();
}
That whole function was removed by d930703d68 mainly to eliminate
the normal_stop call:
~~~~
Note that the exception called from within resume ends up calling
normal_stop via resume_cleanups. That's very borked though, because
normal_stop is going to re-handle whatever was the last reported
event, possibly even re-running a hook stop...
~~~~
But as the regression shows, removing resume_cleanups completely went
a bit too far, as the delete_single_step_breakpoints call is still
necessary.
So fix the regression by reinstating the
delete_single_step_breakpoints call on error. However, since we're
trying to eliminate cleanups, restore it in a different form (using
TRY/CATCH).
Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux both top of master and on top of a series
that implements software single-step on x86.

In a linker script, a sequence like this:
foo = ADDR (.some_section);
bar = foo;
PROVIDE (foo = 0);
will result in 'bar = ADDR (.some_section)' and 'foo = 0', which seems
like incorrect behaviour, foo is clearly defined elsewhere, and so the
PROVIDE should not trigger.
The problem is that an expression like this:
foo = ADDR (.some_section);
can't be evaluated until a late phase of the linker, due to the need
for the section '.some_section' to have been placed, then the PROVIDE
was being marked as being used during an earlier phase. At the end of
the link, both lines:
foo = ADDR (.some_section);
PROVIDE (foo = 0);
are active, and this causes the final value of 'foo' to be 0.
The solution proposed in this commit is that, during earlier phases of
the linker, when we see the expression 'foo = ADDR (.some_section);',
instead of ignoring the expression, we create a "fake" definition of
'foo'. The existence of this "fake" definition prevents the PROVIDE
from being marked used, and during the final phase the real definition
of 'foo' will replace the "fake" definition.
The new test provide-6 covers the exact case described above. The
provide-7 test is similar to the above, but using constant
expressions, this was never broken, but is added here to increase
coverage.
The provide-8 case also didn't fail before this commit, but I did
manage to break this case during development of this patch. This case
was only covered by a mmix test before, so I've added this here to
increase coverage.

Currently when recording a PROVIDE statement in a linker map file we
display something like:
PROVIDE (SYMBOL, VALUE)
However, in a linker script we write these statements like this:
PROVIDE (SYMBOL = VALUE);
This commit changes the output in the map file to be closer to linker
script format, the map file now contains:
PROVIDE (SYMBOL = VALUE)
The ';' is still missing from the end, but map files are not intended
to be valid linker script input, so adding the ';' just seems like
clutter.

^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb)
Note, thread _2_. There's really only one thread in the inferior
(it's still at the entry point), but still GDB added a bogus second
thread.
The reason GDB started adding a second thread after 5cd63fda03 is
this hunk:
+ if (event->ptid == null_ptid)
+ {
+ const char *thr = strstr (p1 + 1, ";thread:");
+ if (thr != NULL)
+ event->ptid = read_ptid (thr + strlen (";thread:"),
+ NULL);
+ else
+ event->ptid = magic_null_ptid;
+ }
Note the else branch that falls back to magic_null_ptid. We reach
that when we process the initial stop reply sent back in response to
the the "?" (status) packet early in the connection setup:
Sending packet: $?#3f...Ack
Packet received: T0506:0000000000000000;07:40a510f4fd7f0000;10:d0fe1201577f0000;
And note that that response does not include a ";thread:XXX" part.
This stop reply is processed after listing threads with qfThreadInfo /
qsThreadInfo :
Sending packet: $qfThreadInfo#bb...Ack
Packet received: m3915
Sending packet: $qsThreadInfo#c8...Ack
Packet received: l
meaning, when we process that stop reply, we treat the event as coming
from a thread with ptid == magic_null_ptid, which is not yet in the
thread list, so we add it then:
(top-gdb) p ptid

things go downhill from this.
We don't see the problem with current master gdbserver, because that
version always sends the ";thread:" part in the initial stop reply:
Sending packet: $?#3f...Packet received: T0506:0000000000000000;07:a0d4ffffff7f0000;10:d05eddf7ff7f0000;thread:p3cea.3cea;core:3;
Years ago I had added a "--disable-packet=" command line option to
gdbserver which comes in handy for testing this, since the existing
"--disable-packet=Tthread" precisely makes gdbserver not send that
";thread:" part in stop replies. The testcase added by this commit
emulates old gdbserver making use of that.
I've compared a testrun at 5cd63fda035d^ (before regression) with
'current master+patch', against old gdbserver at f8b73d13b7ca^. I
hacked out --once, and "monitor exit" to be able to test. The results
are a bit too unstable to tell accurately, but it looked like there
were no regressions. Maciej confirmed this worked for him as well.
No regressions on master (against master gdbserver).

A previous patch fixed verbatim matching in the lookup at the minimal
symbol level, but we should also be finding that same symbol through
the partial/full symtab search.
For example, this is what happens if we use "print" instead of
"break":
(gdb) p <MixedCaseFunc>
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4024dc <MixedCaseFunc>
Before the C++ wildmatching series, GDB knows that MixedCaseFunc is a
function without parameters, and the expression above means calling
it. If you try it before having started the inferior, you'd get the
following (expected) error:
(gdb) print <MixedCaseFunc>
You can't do that without a process to debug.
The main idea behind making the name matcher be determined by the
symbol's language is so that C++ (etc.) wildmatching in linespecs
works even if the current language is not C++, as e.g., when you step
through C or assembly code.
Ada's verbatim matching syntax however ("<...>") isn't quite the same.
It is more a property of the current language than of a particular
symbol's language. We want to support this syntax when debugging an
Ada program, but it's reason of existence is to find non-Ada symbols.
This suggests going back to enabling it depending on current language
instead of language of the symbol being matched.
I'm not entirely happy with the "current_language" reference (though I
think that it's harmless). I think we could try storing the current
language in the lookup_name_info object, and then convert a bunch of
functions more to pass around lookup_name_info objects instead of
"const char *" names. I.e., build the lookup_name_info higher up.
I'm not sure about that, I'll have to think more about it. Maybe
something different will be better. Meanwhile, this gets us going.
I've extended the testcase to also exercise a no-debug-info function,
for extra coverage of the minsyms-only paths.

This patch fixes the regression covered by the test added by:
commit 344420da6b
Date: Thu Jan 4 03:30:37 2018 -0500
Subject: Add "complete break ada" test to gdb.ada/complete.exp
The regression had been introduced by:
commit b5ec771e60
Date: Wed Nov 8 14:22:32 2017 +0000
Subject: Introduce lookup_name_info and generalize Ada's FULL/WILD name matching
The gist of it is that linespec completion in Ada mode is generating
additional matches that should not appear in the match list
(internally generated symbols, or symbols that should be enclosed
between "<...>"). These extraneous entries have uppercase characters, such as:
break ada__stringsS
break ada__strings__R11s
[etc]
These matches come from minimal symbols. The problem is that Ada
minsyms end up with no language set (language_auto), and thus we end
up using the generic symbol name matcher for those instead of Ada's.
We already had a special case for in compare_symbol_name to handle
this, but it was limited to expressions, while the case at hand is
completing a linespec. Fix this by applying the special case to
linespec completion as well. I.e., remove the EXPRESSION check from
compare_symbol_name. That alone turns out to not be sufficient still
-- GDB would still show a couple entries that shouldn't be there:
~~
break ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name__2Xn
break ada__exceptions__exception_data__exception_name_length__2Xn
~~
The reason is that these minimal symbols end up with their language
set to language_cplus / C++, because those encoded names manage to
demangle successfully as C++ symbols (using an old C++ mangling
scheme):
$ echo ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name__2Xn | c++filt
Xn::ada__exceptions__exception_data__append_info_exception_name(void)
It's unfortunate that Ada's encoding scheme doesn't start with some
unique prefix like "_Z" in the C++ Itanium ABI mangling scheme. For
now, paper over that by treating C++ minsyms as Ada minsyms.

The problem here is that we are using the user-provided lookup name
literally for name comparisons. I.e., "<MixedCase>" with the "<>"s
included.
This commit fixes the minsym lookup case. psymbol/symbol lookup will
be fixed in a follow up.
In the minsym case, we're using using the user-provided lookup name
literally for linkage name comparisons. That obviously can't work
since the "<>" are not really part of the linkage name.
The original idea was that we'd use the symbol's language to select
the right symbol name matching algorithm, but that doesn't work for
Ada because it's not really possible to unambiguously tell from the
linkage name alone whether we're dealing with Ada symbols, so Ada
minsyms end up with no language set, or sometimes C++ set.
So fix this by treating Ada mode specially when determining the
linkage name to match against.
