dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full (frame #7) knows to handle
NOT_AVAILABLE_ERROR errors, but read_memory always throws
a generic error.
Presently, only the value machinery knows to handle unavailable
memory. We need to push the awareness down to the target_xfer layer,
making it return a finer grained error indication. We can only return
a generic -1 nowadays, which leaves the upper layers with no clue on
why the xfer failed. Use target_xfer_partial directly, rather than
propagating the error through target_read_memory so as to get a better
address to display in the error message.
(target_read_memory & friends build on top of target_read (thus the
target_xfer machinery), but turn all errors to EIO, an errno value. I
think this is a mistake, and we'd better convert all these to return a
target_xfer_error too, but that can be done separately. I looked
around a bit over memory_error calls, and the need to handle random
errno values, other than the EIOs gdb itself hardcodes, probably comes
(only) from deprecated_xfer_memory, which uses errno for error
indication, but I didn't look exhaustively. We should really get rid
of deprecated_xfer_memory and of passing down errno values as error
indication in target_read & friends methods).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver. Fixes the test in
the PR, which will be added to the testsuite later.

The bug here is that python-selftest.exp can fail:
No symbol "RETURN_MASK_ALL" in current context.
RETURN_MASK_ALL is a macro, so if macros do not end up in the
debuginfo (very typical) then the test fails.
It seemed simplest to me to simply turn the RETURN_MASK_ defines into
enum constants. This way they end up in the debuginfo and all is
well.

This moves the "gdbarch" field from the objfile into the BFD.
This field's value is derived from the BFD and is immutable over the
lifetime of the BFD. This makes it a reasonable candidate for pushing
into the per-BFD object.
This is part of the long-term objfile splitting project. In the long
run I think this patch will make it simpler to moves types from the
objfile to the per-BFD object; but the patch makes sense as a minor
cleanup by itself.

In http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00174.html , the
issue of child signal handling around ptrace option support discovery
being different between GDB and GDBserver came up.
I recalled adding these block_child_signals calls, and the "We don't
want those ptrace calls to be interrupted" comment, but not exactly
why. So I looked into it. My first guess is that I got confused.
The patch that added this
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-04/msg00125.html> rewrote
the linux native async support completely, and the old async support
code had the SIGCHLD handler itself do waitpid, so in places that we'd
want a blocking waitpid, we'd have to have the signal handler blocked.
That was probably the mindset I had at the time. Anyway, whatever the
case, looks like I was wrong on the need for this blocking.
Given GDBserver doesn't block like this, I investigated why this is
currently needed on GDB but not on GDBserver.
I removed the block_child_signals (and restore) calls, and hacked
linux-nat.c to call linux_test_for_tracefork in a loop, like:
@@ -534,7 +534,10 @@ static int
linux_supports_tracefork (int pid)
{
if (linux_supports_tracefork_flag == -1)
- linux_test_for_tracefork (pid);
+ {
+ while (1)
+ linux_test_for_tracefork (pid);
+ }
return linux_supports_tracefork_flag;
}
Running the resulting GDB, I then saw bad things happening.
Specifically, I'd end up with a bunch of zombies, and eventually, the
machine would refuse to spawn new processes, claming insufficient
resources.
The issue is that linux_test_for_tracefork test forks, and has the
child fork again. If we don't block SIGCHLD on entry to the function,
the children will inherit SIGCHLD's action/disposition (meaning,
SIGCHLD will be unblocked in the child). When the first child forks
again a second child, and that child exits, the first child gets a
SIGCHLD. Now, when we try to wrap up for the whole options test, we
kill the first child, and collect the waitstatus. Here, when SIGCHLD
isn't blocked, GDB will first see the child reporting a stop with
SIGCHLD. gdbserver's ptrace options test does a PTRACE_KILL loop at
the end, which catches the SIGCHLD, and retries the kill. The GDB
version did not do that. So the GDB version would proceed, leaving
the child zombie (until GDB exists), as nothing collected its final
waitstatus.
So this patch makes the GDB version of linux_test_for_tracefork do the
exact same as the GDBserver version, removes all this unnecessary
blocking throughout, and adds a couple comments at places that do need
it -- namely: places where we'll use sleep with sigsuspend; and
linux_async_pipe, as that destroys the pipe the signal handler
touches.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, sync and async.

This moves a few static variables from thread-info functions into

does all its operations in unsigned int type, and only the return

the discussion of my patches to add the new $_exitsignal convenience
variable:
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-06/msg00452.html>
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-06/msg00352.html>
What I did was to investigate, on the Linux kernel, which targets shared
the signal numbers definition with the generic definition, present at
<include/uapi/asm-generic/signal.h>. For the record, I used linux-3.10-rc7
as the main source of information, always looking at
<arch/<ARCH_NAME>/include/uapi/asm/signal.h>. For SIGRTMAX (which defaults
to _NSIG in most cases), I had to look at different signal-related
files, but most of them (except MIPS) were defined to 64 anyway.
Then, with all the differences in hand, I implemented the bits on each
target.

(gcore_command): Use tilde_expand here, and when showing the
filename to the user, show the expanded version.
* stack.c (read_frame_arg): Set 'entryval_error' to NULL if
'entryval' is set.

* gdb.trace/collection.exp (gdb_collect_args_test): Set
"only" and "both" to 'print entry-values' before selecting
trace frame.
Before this patch, this fails:
(gdb) generate-core-file ~/core
Failed to open '~/core' for output.
After the patch:
(gdb) generate-core-file ~/core
Saved corefile ~/core

* gcore.c (create_gcore_bfd): Use tilde_expand.
* frame.h (read_frame_local): Declare.
* mi/mi-cmd-stack.c (list_args_or_locals): Call
read_frame_local.
* stack.c (read_frame_local): New.
gdb/testsuite/
* gdb.trace/mi-trace-unavailable.exp: Don't set
"print entry-values" to "no".
(test_trace_unavailable): Set various values to
"print entry-values" to test that the output of
'-stack-list-locals' is not affected, and then set
set "print entry-values" to "no".
This fixes some derivation.exp regressions with "dwz -m".
The bug here is that the imported PU is given language_minimal.
However, it ought to be C++.
The "pretend language" machinery exists to solve this problem, but it
wasn't handled in process_psymtab_comp_unit. So, this patch adds it
there.
Built and regtested, both normally and using "dwz -m", on x86-64
Fedora 18.
PR symtab/15028:
* dwarf2read.c (struct process_psymtab_comp_unit_data): New.
(process_psymtab_comp_unit_reader): Use it.
(process_psymtab_comp_unit): Update. Add "pretend_language"
argument.
(dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard): Update.
(scan_partial_symbols): Pass CU's language to
process_psymtab_comp_unit.
After the previous patch in the series, nothing uses the "quick"
method find_symbol_file.
This patch removes it.
Tested by rebuilding.
* dwarf2read.c (dw2_get_primary_filename_reader): Remove.
(dwarf2_gdb_index_functions): Update.
* psymtab.c (find_symbol_file_from_partial): Remove.
(psym_functions): Update.
* symfile.h (struct quick_symbol_functions) <find_symbol_file>:
Remove.
With "dwz -m", "main" appears in both the PU and the importing CU when
running anon-struct.exp. However, the PU does not have a file name.
So, find_main_filename returns the empty string, making
deduce_language_from_filename return language_unknown.
This patch fixes this problem by changing gdb to use the ordinary
symbol-lookup functions to find "main"'s symbol. Then, it examines the
symbol's language.
I think this is cleaner than the current approach. For one thing it
avoids trying to guess the language based on the source file name,
instead deferring to the presumably more reliable debuginfo.
Another possible fix would have been to change how the file name is
found via the "qf" methods. However, I think the approach given is
preferable for the reason outlined above.
This required a minor test suite change, as now a symtab is expanded
during the search for "main".
Built and regtested (both ways) on x86-64 Fedora 18.
* symfile.c (set_initial_language): Look up "main" symbol
and use its language.
* symtab.c (find_main_filename): Remove.
* symtab.h (find_main_filename): Remove.
* gdb.base/maint.exp: Allow zero symtabs to be expanded.
Doug pointed out a while ago that in the final dwz -m patch, nothing
ever set symtab::user.
This patch fixes this oversight and adds a test case showing why it is
important.
Built and regtested (both ways) on x86-64 Fedora 18.
The new test unconditionally tests the partial unit machinery, which I
think is an added plus.
* dwarf2read.c (recursively_compute_inclusions): Add
"immediate_parent" argument. Set symtab's "user" field
if not set.
(compute_symtab_includes): Update.
* gdb.dwarf2/dwz.exp: New file.
The bug here is that, with dwz -m, a function (and a label) appear in
both a PU and a CU when running cplabel.exp. So, a breakpoint gets
two locations:
(gdb) break foo::bar:to_the_top
Breakpoint 2 at 0x400503: foo::bar:to_the_top. (2 locations)
What is especially wacky is that both locations are at the same place:
(gdb) info b
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
1.1 y 0x000000000040051c foo::bar:get_out_of_here
1.2 y 0x000000000040051c foo::bar:get_out_of_here
This happens due to the weird way we run "dwz -m".
It's unclear to me that this would ever happen for real code.
While I think this borders on "diminishing returns" territory, the fix
is pretty straightforward: use the existing address-filtering function
in linespec to also filter when looking at labels.
Built and regtested (both ways) on x86-64 Fedora 18.
* linespec.c (convert_linespec_to_sals): Use maybe_add_address
when adding label symbols.
