I noticed that, when using 'set debug serial 1', the "write" traces
would always be NUL characters:
[
w \x00][\x00][\x00][\x00][\x00][etc]
This is due to a small thinko in the loop that output each character,
where we accidently used the loop boundary instead of the loop index
to index the character to be printed.
After this patch is applied, the output now becomes:
[
w $][v][C][o][n][t][?][#][4][9]

Three issues with
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-06/msg00348.html
(c077881a).
- The inner 'status' local is shadowing the outer 'status' local,
thus PTRACE_DETACH is never seeing the status it intends to pass on
the inferior.
- With that fixed, we then try to pass down the SIGTRAP that results
from the step to the inferior. Need to filter out signals that are
in nopass state.
- For software single-step archs, the current code is equivalent to:
int status = 0;
if (WIFSTOPPED (status))
ptrace (PTRACE_DETACH, child_pid, 0, WSTOPSIG (status));
... and status == 0 is WIFEXITED, not WIFSTOPPED, so we're never
detaching.

Got gdb.base/watch-vfork.exp: Watchpoint triggers after vfork (sw)
(timeout) with Linux 2.6.32 and older version.
The rootcause is after the test use "set can-use-hw-watchpoints 0" let GDB
doesn't use hardware breakpoint and set a watchpoint on "global", GDB
continue will keep single step inside function "vfork".
The Linux 2.6.32 and older version doesn't have commit
6580807da14c423f0d0a708108e6df6ebc8bc83d (get more info please goto

When the function "vfork" do syscall, the single step flag TIF_SINGLESTEP
will copy to child process.
Then GDB detach it, child process and parent process will be hanged.
So I make a patch that do a single step before detach. Then TIF_SINGLESTEP
of child process in old Linux kernel will be cleared before detach.
Child process in new Linux kernel will not be affected by this single step.

The problem is that we had just resumed the target and the native
GNU/Linux target can't read memory off of a running thread. Most of
the time, we get "lucky", because we manage to read memory before the
kernel actually schedules the target to run.
So just give up and skip the test on any target that uses hardware

FAIL: gdb.base/async.exp: finish&
The corresponding test is "test_background "nexti&" "" ".*y = 3.*"",
and it assumes that GDB "nexti" into the next source line. It is wrong
on arm. After "nexti", it still stops at the same source line, and it
fails.
When gdb does "finish", if the PC is in the middle of a source line,
the PC address is printed too. See stack.c:print_frame,
if (opts.addressprint)
if (!sal.symtab
|| frame_show_address (frame, sal)
|| print_what == LOC_AND_ADDRESS)
{
annotate_frame_address ();
if (pc_p)

else
ui_out_field_string (uiout, "addr", "<unavailable>");
annotate_frame_address_end ();
ui_out_text (uiout, " in ");
}
frame_show_address checks whether PC is the middle of a source line.
Since after "nexti", the inferior stops at the middle of a source line,
when we do "finish" the PC address is displayed.
In sum, GDB works well, but test case needs update. This patch is to
add a statement at the same line to make sure "nexti" doesn't go to
the new line, match the next instruction address in the output and
match the hex address the output of "finish".

The code in gdb.threads/staticthreads.exp about checking the value of
tlsvar in main thread is racy, because when child thread hits
breakpoint, the main thread may not go into pthread_join yet, and
may not be unwind to main.
This patch is to move the line setting breakpoint on after sem_wait,
so that the child thread will hit breakpoint after main thread calls
sem_post. IOW, when child thread hits breakpoint, the main thread is
in either sem_post or pthread_join. "up 10" can unwind main thread to
main.

See updated ChangeLog below.
--------------------
The quoting in whatever goes in the event_channel of MI is little bit broken.
Link for the lazy:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15806
Here is an example of a =library-loaded event with an ill-named directory,
/tmp/how"are\you (the problem is present with every directory on Windows since
it uses backslashes as a path separator). The result will be the following:
=library-loaded,id="/tmp/how"are\\you/libexpat.so.1",...
The " between 'how' and 'are' should be escaped.
Another bad behavior is double escaping in =breakpoint-created, for example:
=breakpoint-created,bkpt={...,fullname="/tmp/how\\"are\\\\you/test.c",...}
The two backslashes before 'how' should be one and the four before 'you' should
be two.
The reason for this is that when sending something to an MI console, escaping
can take place at two different moments (the actual escaping work is always
done in the printchar function):
1. When generating the content, if ui_out_field_* functions are used. Here,
fields are automatically quoted with " and properly escaped. At least
mi_field_string does it, not sure about mi_field_fmt, I need to investigate
further.
2. When gdb_flush is called, to send the data in the buffer of the console to
the actual output (stdout). At this point, mi_console_raw_packet takes the
whole string in the buffer, quotes it, and escapes all occurences of the
quoting character and backslashes. The event_channel does not specify a quoting
character, so quotes are not escaped here, only backslashes.
The problem with =library-loaded is that it does use fprintf_unfiltered, which
doesn't do escaping (so, no #1). When gdb_flush is called, backslashes are
escaped (#2).
The problem with =breakpoint-created is that it first uses ui_out_field_*
functions to generate its output, so backslashes and quotes are escaped there
(#1). backslashes are escaped again in #2, leading to an overdose of
backslashes.
In retrospect, there is no way escaping can be done reliably in
mi_console_raw_packet for data that is already formatted, such as
event_channel. At this point, there is no way to differentiate quotes that
delimit field values from those that should be escaped. In the case of other MI
consoles, it is ok since mi_console_raw_packet receives one big string that
should be quoted and escaped as a whole.
So, first part of the fix: for the MI channels that specify no quoting
character, no escaping at all should be done in mi_console_raw_packet (that's
the change in printchar, thanks to Yuanhui Zhang for this). For those channels,
whoever generates the content is responsible for proper quoting and escaping.
This will fix the =breakpoint-created kind of problem.
Second part of the fix is to make =library-loaded generate content that is
properly escaped. For this, we use ui_out_field_* functions, instead of one big
fprintf_unfiltered. =library-unloaded suffered from the same problem so it is
modified as well. There might be other events that need fixing too, but that's
all I found with a quick scan. Those that use fprintf_unfiltered but whose sole
variable data is a %d are not critical, since it won't generate a " or a \.
Finally, a test has been fixed, as it was expecting an erroneous output.
Otherwise, all other tests that were previously passing still pass (x86-64
linux).

The goal of this patch is to provide an easy way to make
--disable-werror the default when building binutils, or the parts
of binutils that need to get built when building GDB. In development
mode, we want to continue making -Werror the default with GCC.
But, when making releases, I think we want to make it as easy as
possible for regular users to successfully build from sources.
GDB already has this kind of feature to turn -Werror as well as
the use of the libmcheck library. As GDB Release Manager, I take
advantage of it to turn those off after having cut the branch.
I'd like to be able to do the same for the binutils bits. And
perhaps Tristan will want to do the same for his releases too
(not sure, binutils builders might be a little savvier than GDB
builders).
This patch introduces a new file, called development.sh, which
just sets a variable called $development. In our development branches
(Eg. "master"), it's set to true. But setting it to false would allow
us to change the default behavior of various development-related
features to be turned off; in this case, it turns off the use of
-Werror by default (use --enable-werror to turn it back on).

Tested on x86_64-linux by building two ways: One with DEVELOPMENT
set to true, and one with DEVELOPMENT set to false. In the first
case, I could see the use of -Werror, while it disappeared in
the second case.

When debugging on LynxOS targets (and probably on SPU targets as well),
inserting a breakpoint and resuming the program's execution causes
GDBserver to crash.
The crash occurs while handling the Z0 packet sent by GDB to insert
our breakpoint, because z_type_supported calls
the_target->supports_z_point_type without checking that it is not NULL
This patch fixes the issue by making z_type_supported return false if
the_target->supports_z_point_type is NULL.

This constifies the "args" argument to the target_ops to_attach
method.
I updated all instances of the method. I could not compile all of
them but I hand-inspected them. In all cases either the argument is
ignored, or it is passed to parse_pid_to_attach. (linux-nat does some
extra stuff, but that one I built...)
If you want to try it on your host of choice, please do so.
The code in parse_pid_to_attach seems a little bogus to me. If there
is a platform with a broken strtoul, we have better methods for fixing
the issue now. However, I left the code as is since it is clearly ok
to do so.

sss-bp-on-user-bp.c has an assumption that write to integer can be
compiled to a single instruction, which isn't true on some arch, such
as arm. This test requires setting two breakpoints on two consecutive
instructions, so this patch is to get the address of the next
instruction via disassemble and set the 2nd breakpoint there. This
approach is portable.
This patch fixes the fails in sss-bp-on-user-bp.exp on arm-none-abi
target. There is no change in x86 test results. I also revert the
patch to PR breakpoints/17000, and verified that the patched
sss-bp-on-user-bp.exp still trigger the fail on
x86-with-software-single-step.

https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-11/msg00090.html.
If test get the target doesn't support fileio system according to the
remote log. It will set this test as "unsupported".
Before I made this patch, I want add a check before all of tests in this
file. But I found that the target maybe support one call but not others.
For example: my target support Fwrite, Fopen and so on. But not Fgettimeofday.
And it doesn't support Fsystem NULL but it support Fsystem not NULL.
So I think if we want to check target support fileio, we need check them
one by one.

with the following code...
12 Nested; -- break #1
13 return I; -- break #2
14 end;
(line 12 is a call to function Nested)
... we have noticed the following errorneous behavior on ppc-aix,
where, after having inserted a breakpoint at line 12 and line 13,
and continuing from the breakpoint at line 12, the program never
stops at line 13, running away until the program terminates:
% gdb -q func
(gdb) b func.adb:12
Breakpoint 1 at 0x10000a24: file func.adb, line 12.
(gdb) b func.adb:13
Breakpoint 2 at 0x10000a28: file func.adb, line 13.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /[...]/func
Breakpoint 1, func () at func.adb:12
12 Nested; -- break #1
(gdb) c
Continuing.
[Inferior 1 (process 4128872) exited with code 02]
When resuming from the first breakpoint, GDB first tries to step out
of that first breakpoint. We rely on software single-stepping on this
platform, and it just so happens that the address of the first
software single-step breakpoint is the same as the user's breakpoint
#2 (0x10000a28). So, with infrun and target traces turned on (but
uninteresting traces snip'ed off), the "continue" operation looks like
this:
(gdb) c
### First, we insert the user breakpoints (the second one is an internal
### breakpoint on __pthread_init). The first user breakpoint is not
### inserted as we need to step out of it first.
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_insert_breakpoint (0x00000000d03f3800, xxx) = 0
### Then we proceed with the step-out-of-breakpoint...
infrun: resume (step=1, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), trap_expected=1, current thread [process 15335610] at 0x10000a24
### That's when we insert the SSS breakpoints...
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_insert_breakpoint (0x00000000100009ac, xxx) = 0
### ... then let the inferior resume...
target_resume (15335610, continue, 0)
infrun: wait_for_inferior ()
target_wait (-1, status, options={}) = 15335610, status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 15335610 [process 15335610],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: infwait_normal_state
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x100009ac
### At this point, we stopped at the second SSS breakpoint...
target_stopped_by_watchpoint () = 0
### We remove the SSS breakpoints...
target_remove_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a28, xxx) = 0
target_remove_breakpoint (0x00000000100009ac, xxx) = 0
target_stopped_by_watchpoint () = 0
### We find that we're not done, so we resume....
infrun: no stepping, continue
### And thus insert the user breakpoints again, except we're not
### inserting the second breakpoint?!?
target_insert_breakpoint (0x0000000010000a24, xxx) = 0
infrun: resume (step=0, signal=GDB_SIGNAL_0), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 15335610] at 0x100009ac
target_resume (-1, continue, 0)
infrun: prepare_to_wait
target_wait (-1, status, options={}) = 15335610, status->kind = exited, status = 2
What happens is that the removal of the software single-step
breakpoints effectively removed the breakpoint instruction from
inferior memory. But because such breakpoints are inserted directly
as raw breakpoints rather than through the normal chain of
breakpoints, we fail to notice that one of the user breakpoints points
to the same address and that this user breakpoint is therefore
effectively un-inserted. When resuming after the single-step, GDB
thinks that the user breakpoint is still inserted and therefore does
not need to insert it again.
This patch teaches the insert and remove routines of both regular and
raw breakpoints to be aware of each other. Special care needs to be
applied in case the target supports evaluation of breakpoint
conditions or commands.

Tested on ppc-aix with AdaCore's testsuite. Tested on x86_64-linux,
(native and gdbserver) with the official testsuite. Also tested on
x86_64-linux through Pedro's branch enabling software single-stepping
on that platform (native and gdbserver).
The check for the source (or "from") directory snippet in listing
matching path substitution rules currently will not match anything
other than a direct match of the "from" field in a substitution rule,
resulting in the incorrect behavior below:
...
(gdb) set substitute-path /a/path /another/path
(gdb) show substitute-path
List of all source path substitution rules:
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path/to/a/file.ext
Source path substitution rule matching `/a/path/to/a/file.ext':
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path
Source path substitution rule matching `/a/path':
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
...
This change effects the following behavior by (sanely) checking
with the length of the "from" portion of a rule and ensuring that
the next character of the path considered for substitution is a path
delimiter (or NULL). With this change, the following behavior is
garnered:
...
(gdb) set substitute-path /a/path /another/path
(gdb) show substitute-path
List of all source path substitution rules:
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/path/to/a/file.ext
Source path substitution rule matching `/a/path/to/a/file.ext':
`/a/path' -> `/another/path'.
(gdb) show substitute-path /a/pathological/case/that/should/fail.err

Currently a MEMORY_ERROR raised during unwinding a frame will cause the
unwind to stop with an error message, for example:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000
However, frame #4 is marked as being the end of the stack unwind, so a
subsequent request for the backtrace looses the error message, such as:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
When fetching the backtrace, or requesting the stack depth using the MI
interface the situation is even worse, the first time a request is made
we encounter the memory error and so the MI returns an error instead of
the correct result, for example:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^error,msg="Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^error,msg="Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000"
However, once one of these commands has been used gdb has, internally,
walked the stack and figured that out that frame #4 is the bottom of the
stack, so the second time an MI command is tried you'll get the "expected"
result:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^done,depth="5"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^done,stack=[frame={level="0", .. snip lots .. }]
After this patch the MEMORY_ERROR encountered during the frame unwind is
attached to frame #4 as the stop reason, and is displayed in the CLI each
time the backtrace is requested. In the MI, catching the error means that
the "expected" result is returned the first time the MI command is issued.
So, from the CLI the results of the backtrace will be:
(gdb) bt
#0 breakpt () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:27
#1 0x00000000004008f0 in func5 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:32
#2 0x0000000000400900 in func4 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:38
#3 0x0000000000400910 in func3 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:44
#4 0x0000000000400928 in func2 () at amd64-invalid-stack-middle.c:50
Backtrace stopped: Cannot access memory at address 0x2aaaaaab0000
Each and every time that the backtrace is requested, while the MI output
will similarly be consistently:
(gdb) -stack-info-depth
^done,depth="5"
Or,
(gdb) -stack-list-frames
^done,stack=[frame={level="0", .. snip lots .. }]

If an error is thrown during computing a frame id then the frame is left
in existence but without a valid frame id, this will trigger internal
errors if/when the frame is later visited (for example in a backtrace).

I managed to miss an interaction between the recent *running patch,
and target-async, which resulted in infcalls being completely broken
on GNU/Linux and remote targets (that is, the async-capable targets).

The issue is that when running an infcall, the thread is no longer
marked as running, so run_inferior_call is not calling
wait_for_inferior anymore.
Fix this by doing what the comment actually says we do:
"Do here what `proceed' itself does in sync mode."
And proceed doesn't check whether the target is running.
I notice this is broken in case of the early return in proceed, but we
were broken before in that case anyway, because run_inferior_call will
think the call actually ran. Seems like we should make proceed have a
boolean return, and go through all callers making use of it, if
necessary.
But for now, just fix the regression.

This finally makes background execution commands possible by default.
However, in order to do that, there's one last thing we need to do --
we need to separate the MI and target notions of "async". Unlike the
CLI, where the user explicitly requests foreground vs background
execution in the execution command itself (c vs c&), MI chose to treat
"set target-async" specially -- setting it changes the default
behavior of execution commands.
So, we can't simply "set target-async" default to on, as that would
affect MI frontends. Instead we have to make the setting MI-specific,
and teach MI about sync commands on top of an async target.
Because the "target" word in "set target-async" ends up as a potential
source of confusion, the patch adds a "set mi-async" option, and makes
"set target-async" a deprecated alias.
Rather than make the targets always async, this patch introduces a new
"maint set target-async" option so that the GDB developer can control
whether the target is async. This makes it simpler to debug issues
arising only in the synchronous mode; important because sync mode
seems unlikely to go away.
Unlike in previous revisions, "set target-async" does not affect this
new maint parameter. The rationale for this is that then one can
easily run the test suite in the "maint set target-async off" mode and
have tests that enable mi-async fail just like they fail on
non-async-capable targets. This emulation is exactly the point of the
maint option.
I had asked Tom in a previous iteration to split the actual change of
the target async default to a separate patch, but it turns out that
that is quite awkward in this version of the patch, because with MI
async and target async decoupled (unlike in previous versions), if we
don't flip the default at the same time, then just "set target-async
on" alone never actually manages to do anything. It's best to not
have that transitory state in the tree.
Given "set target-async on" now only has effect for MI, the patch goes
through the testsuite removing it from non-MI tests. MI tests are
adjusted to use the new and less confusing "mi-async" spelling.

Enabling target-async by default will require implementing sync
execution on top of an async target, much like foreground command are
implemented on the CLI in async mode.
In order to do that, we will need better control of when to print the
MI prompt. Currently the interp->display_prompt_p hook is all we
have, and MI just always returns false, meaning, make
display_gdb_prompt a no-op. We'll need to be able to know to print
the MI prompt in some of the conditions that display_gdb_prompt is
called from the core, but not all.
This is all a litte twisted currently. As we can see,
display_gdb_prompt is really CLI specific, so make the console
interpreters (console/tui) themselves call it. To be able to do that,
and add a few different observers that the interpreters can use to
distinguish when or why the the prompt is being printed:
#1 - one called whenever a command is cancelled due to an error.
#2 - another for when a foreground command just finished.
In both cases, CLI wants to print the prompt, while MI doesn't.
MI will want to print the prompt in the second case when in a special
MI mode.
The display_gdb_prompt call in interp_set made me pause. The comment
there reads:
/* Finally, put up the new prompt to show that we are indeed here.
Also, display_gdb_prompt for the console does some readline magic
which is needed for the console interpreter, at least... */
But, that looks very much like a no-op to me currently:
- the MI interpreter always return false in the prompt hook, meaning
actually display no prompt.
- the interpreter used at that point is still quiet. And the
console/tui interpreters return false in the prompt hook if they're
quiet, meaning actually display no prompt.
The only remaining possible use would then be the readline magic. But
whatever that might have been, it's not reacheable today either,
because display_gdb_prompt returns early, before touching readline if
the interpreter returns false in the display_prompt_p hook.

Ignoring expected and desired differences like whether the prompt is
output after *stoppped records, GDB MI output is still different in
sync and async modes.
In sync mode, when a CLI execution command is entered, the "reason"
field is missing in the *stopped async record. And in async mode, for
some events, like program exits, the corresponding CLI output is
missing in the CLI channel.
Vis, diff between sync vs async modes:
run
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
...
- ~"[Inferior 1 (process 15882) exited normally]\n"
=thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1"

- *stopped
+ *stopped,reason="exited-normally"
si

- *stopped,frame=...,thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"
+ *stopped,reason="end-stepping-range",frame=...,thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"
(gdb)
In addition, in both cases, when a MI execution command is entered,
and a breakpoint triggers, the event is sent to the console too. But
some events like program exits have the CLI output missing in the CLI
channel:
-exec-run
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
...
=thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1"
=thread-group-exited,id="i1",exit-code="0"
- *stopped
+ *stopped,reason="exited-normally"
We'll want to make background commands always possible by default.
IOW, make target-async be the default. But, in order to do that,
we'll need to emulate MI sync on top of an async target. That means
we'll have yet another combination to care for in the testsuite.
Rather than making the testsuite cope with all these differences, I
thought it better to just fix GDB to always have the complete output,
no matter whether it's in sync or async mode.
This is all related to interpreter-exec, and the corresponding uiout
switching. (Typing a CLI command directly in MI is shorthand for
running it through -interpreter-exec console.)
In sync mode, when a CLI command is active, normal_stop is called when
the current interpreter and uiout are CLI's. So print_XXX_reason
prints the stop reason to CLI uiout (only), and we don't show it in
MI.
In async mode the stop event is processed when we're back in the MI
interpreter, so the stop reason is printed directly to the MI uiout.
Fix this by making run control event printing roughly independent of
whatever is the current interpreter or uiout. That is, move these
prints to interpreter observers, that know whether to print or be
quiet, and if printing, which uiout to print to. In the case of the
console/tui interpreters, only print if the top interpreter. For MI,
always print.
Breakpoint hits / normal stops are already handled similarly -- MI has
a normal_stop observer that prints the event to both MI and the CLI,
though that could be cleaned up further in the direction of this
patch.
This also makes all of:
(gdb) foo
and
(gdb) interpreter-exec MI "-exec-foo"
and
(gdb)
-exec-foo
and
(gdb)
-interpreter-exec console "foo"
print as expected.

If something within linux_nat_resume_callback throws, GDB leaves the
lwp_info as if the inferior was resumed, while it actually wasn't.
A couple examples, there are possibly others:
- i386_linux_resume calls target_read which calls QUIT.
- if the actual ptrace resumption fails in inf_ptrace_resume,
perror_with_name is called.
If the user tries to kill the inferior at this point (or quit, which
offers to kill), GDB locks up trying to stop the lwp -- if it is
already stopped no new waitpid event gets generated for it.
Fix this by setting the stopped flag earlier, as soon as we collect a
stop event with waitpid, and clearing it always only after resuming
the lwp successfully.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20. Confirmed the lock-up disappears using a
local hack that forces an error in inf_ptrace_resume.
Also fixes a little "set debug lin-lwp" annoyance. Currently we always see:

If one sets a breakpoint with a condition that involves calling a
function in the inferior, and then the condition evaluates false, GDB
outputs one *running event for each time the program hits the
breakpoint. E.g.,
$ gdb return-false -i=mi
(gdb)
start
...
(gdb)
b 14 if return_false ()
&"b 14 if return_false ()\n"
~"Breakpoint 2 at 0x4004eb: file return-false.c, line 14.\n"
...
^done
(gdb)

&"c\n"
~"Continuing.\n"

(gdb)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
*running,thread-id=(...)
... repeat forever ...
An easy way a user can trip on this is with a dprintf with "set
dprintf-style call". In that case, a dprintf is just a breakpoint
that when hit GDB calls the printf function in the inferior, and then
resumes it, just like the case above.
If the breakpoint/dprintf is set in a loop, then these spurious events
can potentially slow down a frontend much, if it decides to refresh
its GUI whenever it sees this event (Eclipse is one such case).
When we run an infcall, we pretend we don't actually run the inferior.
This is already handled for the usual case of calling a function
directly from the CLI:
(gdb)
p return_false ()
&"p return_false ()\n"
~"$1 = 0"
~"\n"
^done
(gdb)
Note no *running, nor *stopped events. That's handled by:
static void
mi_on_resume (ptid_t ptid)
{
...
/* Suppress output while calling an inferior function. */
if (tp->control.in_infcall)
return;
and equivalent code on normal_stop.
However, in the cases of the PR, after finishing the infcall there's
one more resume, and mi_on_resume doesn't know that it should suppress
output then too, somehow.
The "running/stopped" state is a high level user/frontend state.
Internal stops are invisible to the frontend. If follows from that
that we should be setting the thread to running at a higher level
where we still know the set of threads the user _intends_ to resume.
Currently we mark a thread as running from within target_resume, a low
level target operation. As consequence, today, if we resume a
multi-threaded program while stopped at a breakpoint, we see this:
-exec-continue
^running
*running,thread-id="1"
(gdb)
*running,thread-id="all"
The first *running was GDB stepping over the breakpoint, and the
second is GDB finally resuming everything.
Between those two *running's, threads other than "1" still have their
state set to stopped. That's bogus -- in async mode, this opens a
tiny window between both resumes where the user might try to run
another execution command to threads other than thread 1, and very
much confuse GDB.
That is, the "step" below should fail the "step", complaining that the
thread is running:
(gdb) c -a &
(gdb) thread 2
(gdb) step
IOW, threads that GDB happens to not resume immediately (say, because
it needs to step over a breakpoint) shall still be marked as running.
Then, if we move marking threads as running to a higher layer,
decoupled from target_resume, plus skip marking threads as running
when running an infcall, the spurious *running events disappear,
because there will be no state transitions at all.
I think we might end up adding a new thread state -- THREAD_INFCALL or
some such, however since infcalls are always synchronous today, I
didn't find a need. There's no way to execute a CLI/MI command
directly from the prompt if some thread is running an infcall.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

Note how all the "Value returned" etc. output is missing in async mode.
The same happens with e.g., catchpoints:

IMO, if you're typing execution commands in a frontend's console, you
expect to see their output. Indeed it's what you get in sync mode. I
think async mode should do the same. Deciding what to mirror to the
console wrt to breakpoints and random stops gets messy real fast.
E.g., say "s" trips on a breakpoint. We'd clearly want to mirror the
event to the console in this case. But what about more complicated
cases like "s&; thread n; s&", and one of those steps spawning a new
thread, and that thread hitting a breakpoint? It's impossible in
general to track whether the thread had any relation to the commands
that had been executed. So I think we should just simplify and always
mirror breakpoints and random events to the console.
Notes:
- mi->out is the same as gdb_stdout when MI is the current
interpreter. I think that referring to that directly is cleaner.
An earlier revision of this patch made the changes that are now
done in mi_on_normal_stop directly in infrun.c:normal_stop, and so
not having an obvious place to put the new uiout by then, and not
wanting to abuse CLI's uiout, I made a temporary uiout when
necessary.
- Hopefuly the rest of the patch is more or less obvious given the
comments added.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, no regressions.

Here the list starts at line 62, where the program was stopped.
This happens because print_stack_frame, called from both normal_stop
and mi_on_normal_stop, is the function responsible for setting the
current sal from the selected frame, overrides the PRINT_WHAT
argument, and only after that does it decide whether to center the
current sal line or not, based on the overridden value, and it will
always decide false.
(The print_stack_frame call in mi_on_normal_stop is a little different
from the call in normal_stop, in that it is an unconditional
SRC_AND_LOC call. A future patch will make those uniform.)
A previous version of this patch made MI uniform with CLI here, by
making print_stack_frame also center when MI is active. That changed
the output of a "list" command in mi-cli.exp, to expect line 57
instead of 62, as per the example above.
However, looking deeper, that list in question is the first "list"
after the program stops, and right after the stop, before the "list",
the test did "set listsize 1". Let's try the same thing with the CLI:
(gdb) start
62 callee1 (2, "A string argument.", 3.5);
(gdb) set listsize 1
(gdb) list
57 {
Huh, that's unexpected. Why the 57? It's because print_stack_frame,
called in reaction to the breakpoint stop, expecting the next "list"
to show 10 lines (the listsize at the time) around line 62, sets the
lines listed range to 57-67 (62 +/- 5). If the user changes the
listsize before "list", why would we still show that range? Looks
bogus to me.
So the fix for this whole issue should be delay trying to center the
listing to until actually listing, so that the correct listsize can be
taken into account. This makes MI and CLI uniform too, as it deletes
the center code from print_stack_frame.
A series of tests are added to list.exp to cover this. mi-cli.exp was
after all correct all along, but it now gains an additional test that
lists lines with listsize 10, to ensure the centering is consistent
with CLI's.
One related Python test changed related output -- it's a test that
prints the line number after stopping for a breakpoint, similar to the
new list.exp tests. Previously we'd print the stop line minus 5 (due
to the premature centering), now we print the stop line. I think
that's a good change.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

with the arm-eabi target tested on the i686-mingw32 host where GCC
defines enough macros to exhaust expect's 30000 characters of buffer
space.
* lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_init): Bump `match_max' up from
30000 to 65536.
Sometimes it's useful to be able to disable the automatic connection
to the native target. E.g., sometimes GDB disconnects from the
extended-remote target I was debugging, without me noticing it, and
then I do "run". That starts the program locally, and only after a
little head scratch session do I figure out the program is running
locally instead of remotely as intended. Same thing with "attach",
"info os", etc.
With the patch, we now can have this instead:
(gdb) set auto-connect-native-target off
(gdb) target extended-remote :9999
...
*gdb disconnects*
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
To still be able to connect to the native target with
auto-connect-native-target set to off, I've made "target native" work
instead of erroring out as today.
Before:
(gdb) target native
Use the "run" command to start a native process.
After:
(gdb) target native
Done. Use the "run" command to start a process.
(gdb) maint print target-stack
The current target stack is:
- native (Native process)
- exec (Local exec file)
- None (None)
(gdb) run
Starting program: ./a.out
...
I've also wanted this for the testsuite, when running against the
native-extended-gdbserver.exp board (runs against gdbserver in
extended-remote mode). With a non-native-target board, it's always a
bug to launch a program with the native target. Turns out we still
have one such case this patch catches:
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4009e5: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/coremaker.c, line 138.
(gdb) run
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: run: with core
On the patch itself, probably the least obvious bit is the need to go
through all targets, and move the unpush_target call to after the
generic_mourn_inferior call instead of before. This is what
inf-ptrace.c does too, ever since multi-process support was added.
The reason inf-ptrace.c does things in that order is that in the
current multi-process/single-target model, we shouldn't unpush the
target if there are still other live inferiors being debugged. The
check for that is "have_inferiors ()" (a misnomer nowadays...), which
does:
have_inferiors (void)
{
for (inf = inferior_list; inf; inf = inf->next)
if (inf->pid != 0)
return 1;
It's generic_mourn_inferior that ends up clearing inf->pid, so we need
to call it before the have_inferiors check. To make all native
targets behave the same WRT to explicit "target native", I've added an
inf_child_maybe_unpush_target function that targets call instead of
calling unpush_target directly, and as that includes the
have_inferiors check, I needed to adjust the targets.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native, and also with the
extended-gdbserver board.
Confirmed a cross build of djgpp gdb still builds.
Smoke tested a cross build of Windows gdb under Wine.
Untested otherwise.

I had been pondering renaming "target child" to something else.
"child" is a little lie in case of "attach", and not exactly very
clear to users, IMO. By best suggestion is "target native". If I
were to explain what "target child" is, I'd just start out with "it's
the native target" anyway. I was worrying a little that "native"
might be a lie too if some port comes up with a default target that
can run but is not really native, but I think that's a very minor
issue - we can consider that "native" really means the default built
in target that GDB supports, instead of saying that's the target that
debugs host native processes, if it turns out necessary.
This change doesn't affect users much, because "target child" results
in error today:
(gdb) target child
Use the "run" command to start a child process.
Other places "child" is visible:
(gdb) help target
...
List of target subcommands:
target child -- Child process (started by the "run" command)
target core -- Use a core file as a target
target exec -- Use an executable file as a target

These places will say "native" instead. I think that's a good thing.

Now that all invocations of regset_alloc() have been removed, the
function is dropped. Since regset_alloc() was the only function
provided by regset.c, this source file is removed as well.
Clear the naming confusion about "regset" versus "sparc*regset". The
latter was used to represent the *map* of a register set, not the
register set itself, and is thus renamed accordingly.
The following identifiers are renamed:
sparc32_bsd_fpregset => sparc32_bsd_fpregmap
sparc32_linux_core_gregset => sparc32_linux_core_gregmap
sparc32_sol2_fpregset => sparc32_sol2_fpregmap
sparc32_sol2_gregset => sparc32_sol2_gregmap
sparc32_sunos4_fpregset => sparc32_sunos4_fpregmap
sparc32_sunos4_gregset => sparc32_sunos4_gregmap

sparc64_sol2_fpregset => sparc64_sol2_fpregmap
sparc64_sol2_gregset => sparc64_sol2_gregmap
sparc64fbsd_gregset => sparc64fbsd_gregmap
sparc64nbsd_gregset => sparc64nbsd_gregmap
sparc64obsd_core_gregset => sparc64obsd_core_gregmap
sparc64obsd_gregset => sparc64obsd_gregmap
sparc_fpregset => sparc_fpregmap
sparc_gregset => sparc_gregmap
sparc_sol2_fpregset => sparc_sol2_fpregmap
sparc_sol2_gregset => sparc_sol2_gregmap
Also, all local variables 'gregset' and 'fpregset' are renamed to
'gregmap' and 'fpregmap', respectively.
Removes the 'arch' field from the regset structure, since it
represents the only "dynamic" data in a regset. It was referenced in
some regset supply- and collect routines, to get access to the gdbarch
associated with the regset. Naturally, the affected routines always
have access to the regcache to be supplied to or collected from. Thus
the gdbarch associated with that regcache can be used instead.

The dcache (code/stack cache) is supposed to be transparent, but it's
actually not in one case. dcache tries to read chunks (cache lines)
at a time off of the target. This may end up trying to read
unaccessible or unavailable memory. Currently the caller gets an xfer
error in this case. But if the specific bits of memory the caller
actually wanted are available and accessible, then the caller should
get the memory it wanted, not an error.

The problem originates from the get_current_arch call in
py-progspace.c:py_free_pspace. The inferior associated with the
pspace is gone, and the current inferior is a different one and is running.
Therefore get_current_arch tries to read the current frame which
causes reads of data in the current program space which we've just deleted.
* python/py-progspace.c (py_free_pspace): Call target_gdbarch
instead of get_current_arch.
This does two things:
1. Adds a test.
Recently compare-sections got a new "-r" switch, but given no test
existed for compare-sections, the patch was allowed in with no
testsuite addition. This now adds a test for both compare-sections
and compare-sections -r.
2. Makes the compare-sections command work against all targets.
Currently, compare-sections only works with remote targets, and only
those that support the qCRC packet. The patch makes it so that if the
target doesn't support accelerating memory verification, then GDB
falls back to comparing memory itself. This is of course slower, but
it's better than nothing, IMO. While testing against extended-remote
GDBserver I noticed that we send the qCRC request to the target if
we're connected, but not yet running a program. That can't work of
course -- the patch fixes that. This all also goes in the direction
of bridging the local/remote parity gap.
I didn't decouple 1. from 2., because that would mean that the test
would need to handle the case of the target not supporting the
command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native, remote GDBserver, and
extended-remote GDBserver. I also hack-disabled qCRC support to make
sure the fallback paths in remote.c work.

Actually, that patch just exposed a latent issue to "breakpoints
always-inserted off" mode, not really caused it. After that patch,
GDB no longer removes breakpoints at each internal event, thus making
some scenarios behave like breakpoint always-inserted on. The bug is
easy to trigger with always-inserted on.
The issue is that since the target-side breakpoint conditions support,
if the stub/server supports evaluating breakpoint conditions on the
target side, then GDB is sending duplicate Zx packets to the target
without removing them before, and GDBserver is not really expecting
that for Z packets other than Z0/z0. E.g., with "set breakpoint
always-inserted on" and "set debug remote 1":
(gdb) b main

So GDB sent a bunch of Z1 packets, and then when finally removing the
breakpoint, only one z1 packet was sent. On the GDBserver side (with
monitor set debug-hw-points 1), in the Z1 case, we see:

That's one insert_watchpoint call for each Z1 packet, and then one
remove_watchpoint call for the z1 packet. Notice how ref.count
increased for each insert_watchpoint call, and then in the end, after
GDB told GDBserver to forget about the hardware breakpoint, GDBserver
ends with the the first debug register still with ref.count=4! IOW,
the hardware breakpoint is left armed on the target, while on the GDB
end it's gone. If the program happens to execute 0x410943 afterwards,
then the CPU traps, GDBserver reports the trap to GDB, and GDB not
having a breakpoint set at that address anymore, reports to the user a
spurious SIGTRAP.
This is exactly what is happening in the hbreak2.exp test, though in
that case, it's a shared library event that triggers a
breakpoint_re_set, when breakpoints are still inserted (because
nowadays GDB doesn't remove breakpoints while handling internal
events), and that recreates breakpoint locations, which likewise
forces breakpoint reinsertion and Zx packet resends...
That is a lot of bogus Zx duplication that should possibly be
addressed on the GDB side. GDB resends Zx packets because the way to
change the target-side condition, is to resend the breakpoint to the
server with the new condition. (That's an option in the packet: e.g.,
"Z1,410943,1;X3,220027" for "hbreak main if 0". The packets in the
examples above are shorter because the breakpoints don't have
conditions attached). GDB doesn't remove the breakpoint first before
reinserting it because that'd be bad for non-stop, as it'd open a
window where the inferior could miss the breakpoint. The conditions
actually haven't changed between the resends, but GDB isn't smart
enough to realize that.
(TBC, if the target doesn't support target-side conditions, then GDB
doesn't trigger these resends (init_bp_location calls
mark_breakpoint_location_modified, and that does nothing if condition
evaluation is on the host side. The resends are caused by the
'loc->condition_changed = condition_modified.' line.)
But, even if GDB was made smarter, GDBserver should really still
handle the resends anyway. So target-side conditions also aren't
really to blame. The documentation of the Z/z packets says:
"To avoid potential problems with duplicate packets, the operations
should be implemented in an idempotent way."
As such, we may want to fix GDB, but we should definitely fix
GDBserver. The fix is a prerequisite for target-side conditions on
hardware breakpoints anyway (and while at it, on watchpoints too).
GDBserver indeed already treats duplicate Z0 packets in an idempotent
way. mem-break.c has the concept of high-level and low-level
breakpoints, somewhat similar to GDB's split of breakpoints vs
breakpoint locations, and keeps track of multiple breakpoints
referencing the same address/location, for the case of an internal
GDBserver breakpoint or a tracepoint being set at the same address as
a GDB breakpoint. But, it only allows GDB to ever contribute one
reference to a software breakpoint location. IOW, if gdbserver sees a
Z0 packet for the same address where it already had a GDB breakpoint
set, then GDBserver won't create another high-level GDB breakpoint.
However, mem-break.c only tracks GDB Z0 breakpoints. The same logic
should apply to all kinds of Zx packets. Currently, gdbserver passes
down each duplicate Zx (other than Z0) request directly to the
target->insert_point routine. The x86 watchpoint support itself
refcounts watchpoint / hw breakpoint requests, to handle overlapping
watchpoints, and save debug registers. But that code doesn't (and
really shouldn't) handle the duplicate requests, assuming that for
each insert there will be a corresponding remove.
So the fix is to generalize mem-break.c to track all kinds of Zx
breakpoints, and filter out duplicates. As mentioned, this ends up
adding support for target-side conditions on hardware breakpoints and
watchpoints too (though GDB itself doesn't support the latter yet).
Probably the least obvious change in the patch is that it kind of
turns the breakpoint insert/remove APIs inside out. Before, the
target methods were only called for GDB breakpoints. The internal
breakpoint set/delete methods inserted memory breakpoints directly
bypassing the insert/remove target methods. That's not good when the
target should use a debug API to set software breakpoints, instead of
relying on GDBserver patching memory with breakpoint instructions, as
is the case of NTO.
Now removal/insertion of all kinds of breakpoints/watchpoints, either
internal, or from GDB, always go through the target methods. The
insert_point/remove_point methods no longer get passed a Z packet
type, but an internal/raw breakpoint type. They're also passed a
pointer to the raw breakpoint itself (note that's still opaque outside
mem-break.c), so that insert_memory_breakpoint /
remove_memory_breakpoint have access to the breakpoint's shadow
buffer. I first tried passing down a new structure based on GDB's
"struct bp_target_info" (actually with that name exactly), but then
decided against it as unnecessary complication.
As software/memory breakpoints work by poking at memory, when setting
a GDB Z0 breakpoint (but not internal breakpoints, as those can assume
the conditions are already right), we need to tell the target to
prepare to access memory (which on Linux means stop threads). If that
operation fails, we need to return error to GDB. Seeing an error, if
this is the first breakpoint of that type that GDB tries to insert,
GDB would then assume the breakpoint type is supported, but it may
actually not be. So we need to check whether the type is supported at
all before preparing to access memory. And to solve that, the patch
adds a new target->supports_z_point_type method that is called before
actually trying to insert the breakpoint.
Other than that, hopefully the change is more or less obvious.
New test added that exercises the hbreak2.exp regression in a more
direct way, without relying on a breakpoint re-set happening before
main is reached.

the files a little bit more similar is a good thing on its own right.
Ideally we'd merge these files even... The

On GDB release branches, we change $development in gdb/development.sh
to false, in order to build the GDB release without -Werror by default,
thus avoiding harmless compiler warnings from breaking the build of
someone who's only interested in building GDB rather than working
on it.
This patch implements the same strategy for gdbserver, using the exact
same method.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* configure.ac: Only use -Werror by default when DEVELOPMENT
is true.
* configure: Regenerate.
Tested on x86_64-linux, by rebuilding GDBserver first with development
set to true, and then doing it again with development set to false.
Werror was used in the first case, but not in the second.
When using a reverse execution command without execution history, GDB
might end up in a state where replaying has been started but remains

Hi,
This patch is to add a new board setting gdb_reverse_timeout, which is
used to set timeout for all gdb.reverse test cases, which are usually
very slow and cause some TIMEOUT failures, for example, on some arm
boards. We have some alternatives to this approach, but I am not
satisfied with them:
- Increase the timeout value. This is the global change, and it may
cause some delay where actual failures happen.
- Set timeout by gdb_reverse_timeout in every gdb.reverse/*.exp.
Then, we have to touch every file under gdb.reverse.
In this patch, we choose a central place to set timeout for all tests
in gdb.reverse, which is convenient.
gdb/testsuite:
2014-05-20 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com>
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_init): Set timeout if test file is under
gdb.reverse directory and gdb_reverse_timeout exists in board
setting.
* README: Document gdb_reverse_timeout.
The argument ARGS of gdb_init is passed from dejagnu is a string, the
test file name. In dejagnu/runtest.exp:
proc runtest { test_file_name } {
....
....
if [info exists tool] {
if { [info procs "${tool}_init"] != "" } {
${tool}_init $test_file_name;
}
}
....
}
but inn default_gdb_init (callee of gdb_init), we have
set gdb_test_file_name [file rootname [file tail [lindex $args 0]]]
In tcl, all actual arguments are combined to a list and assigned to
args. This code here isn't wrong, but unnecessary, because its caller
(proc runtest) only passes one string to it, and IMO, we don't need
such tricky tcl "args".
I doubt that "[lindex $args 0]" is to be backward compatible with old
dejagnu, but dejagnu-1.4 release started to pass $test_file_name to
${too}_init, as I showed above. dejagnu-1.4 was released in 2001, and
it should be old enough. I also tried to check whether gdb testusite
works with dejagnu-1.3 or not, but failed to build dejagnu-1.3 on my
machine. Supposing GDB testsuite requires at least dejagnu-1.4, this
change should be safe.
This patch is update default_gdb_init to treat ARGS as a string instead
of a list. Then, 'args' sounds like a list, and this patch also renames
it by 'test_file_name', to align with dejagnu.
gdb/testsuite:

it will call cache init function of unwinder "aarch64_linux_sigframe_init".
The address or the value of the registers is get from this function.
So the bug is inside thie function.
I check the asm code of "#3 <signal handler called>":
(gdb) frame 3
(gdb) p $pc
$1 = (void (*)()) 0x7f931fa4d0
(gdb) disassemble $pc, +10
Dump of assembler code from 0x7f931fa4d0 to 0x7f931fa4da:
=> 0x0000007f931fa4d0: mov x8, #0x8b // #139
0x0000007f931fa4d4: svc #0x0
0x0000007f931fa4d8: nop
This is the syscall sys_rt_sigreturn, Linux kernel function "restore_sigframe"
will set the frame:
for (i = 0; i < 31; i++)
__get_user_error(regs->regs[i], &sf->uc.uc_mcontext.regs[i],
err);
__get_user_error(regs->sp, &sf->uc.uc_mcontext.sp, err);
__get_user_error(regs->pc, &sf->uc.uc_mcontext.pc, err);
The struct of uc_mcontext is:
struct sigcontext {
__u64 fault_address;
/* AArch64 registers */
__u64 regs[31];
__u64 sp;
__u64 pc;
__u64 pstate;
/* 4K reserved for FP/SIMD state and future expansion */
__u8 __reserved[4096] __attribute__((__aligned__(16)));
};
But in GDB function "aarch64_linux_sigframe_init", the code the get address
of registers is:
for (i = 0; i < 31; i++)
{
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache,
AARCH64_X0_REGNUM + i,
sigcontext_addr + AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_XO_OFFSET
+ i * AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_REG_SIZE);
}
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache, AARCH64_FP_REGNUM, fp);
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache, AARCH64_LR_REGNUM, fp + 8);
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache, AARCH64_PC_REGNUM, fp + 8);
The code that get pc and sp is not right, so I change the code according
to Linux kernel code:
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache, AARCH64_SP_REGNUM,
sigcontext_addr + AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_XO_OFFSET
+ 31 * AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_REG_SIZE);
trad_frame_set_reg_addr (this_cache, AARCH64_PC_REGNUM,
sigcontext_addr + AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_XO_OFFSET
+ 32 * AARCH64_SIGCONTEXT_REG_SIZE);
The issue was fixed by this change, and I did the regression test. It
also fixed a lot of other XFAIL and FAIL.

I'm checking this in as obvious.
I was looking at instances of "alloc.*sizeof" and noticed a couple
where the types in question are incorrect.
In gdbtypes, the code allocates sizeof(int) to represent a struct rank.
In mi-cmds, the code uses "struct mi_cmd **" -- one "*" too many.
In both cases the problems are latent because in practice the sizes
are the same as the sizes of the correct types. Still, it's better to
be correct.
I think gdb would be improved by a wholesale change from explicit
sizeofs to using the libiberty.h allocation macros. In most cases
they are both shorter and have better type safety. However, the
resulting patch is rather large.

Hi,
I recently see the fail in dwzbuildid.exp below on some targets,
(gdb) print the_int
No symbol "the_int" in current context.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dwzbuildid.exp: mismatch: print the_int
Looks the pattern expects to see "No symbol table is loaded", which
is emitted in c-exp.y,
variable: name_not_typename
....
if (msymbol.minsym != NULL)
write_exp_msymbol (pstate, msymbol);
else if (!have_full_symbols () && !have_partial_symbols ())
error (_("No symbol table is loaded. Use the \"file\" command."));
else
error (_("No symbol \"%s\" in current context."),
copy_name ($1.stoken));
it is expected to have no full symbols nor partial symbols, but something
brings full symbols or partial symbols in. I added "maint info symtabs"
and "maint info psymtabs" in dwzbuildid.exp, and it shows symbols are from
ld.so, which has debug information. Then, I reproduce the fail like this,
$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS="CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-Wl,-rpath=${glibc_build}:${glibc_build}/math -Wl,--dynamic-linker=${glibc_build}/elf/ld.so' dwzbuildid.exp"
${glibc_build} is the glibc build tree. Debug information is not striped,
so the test fail. However, if I strip debug information from libc.so, libm.so
and ld.so. The test passes.
This patch is to relax the pattern to match the both cases that glibc build
has and has not debug information.

In gdb.trace/unavailable.exp, an action is defined to collect
struct_b.struct_a.array[2] and struct_b.struct_a.array[100],
struct StructB
{
int d, ef;
StructA struct_a;
int s:1;
static StructA static_struct_a;
const char *string;
};
and the other files are not collected.
When GDB examine traceframe collected by the action, "struct_b" is
unavailable completely, which is wrong.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = <unavailable>
When GDB reads 'struct_b', it will request to read memory at struct_b's address
of length LEN. Since struct_b.d is not collected, no 'M' block
includes the first part of the desired range, so tfile_xfer_partial returns
TARGET_XFER_UNAVAILABLE and GDB thinks the whole requested range is unavailable.
In order to fix this problem, in the iteration to 'M' blocks, we record the
lowest address of blocks within the request range. If it has, the requested
range isn't unavailable completely. This applies to ctf too. With this patch
applied, the result looks good and fails in unavailable.exp is fixed.
(gdb) p struct_b
$1 = {d = <unavailable>, ef = <unavailable>, struct_a = {a = <unavailable>, b = <unavailable>, array = {<unavailable>,
<unavailable>, -1431655766, <unavailable> <repeats 97 times>, -1431655766, <unavailable> <repeats 9899 times>}, ptr = <unavailable>, bitfield = <unavailable>}, s = <unavailable>, static static_struct_a = {a = <unavailable>, b = <unavailable>, array = {<unavailable> <repeats 10000 times>}, ptr = <unavailable>,

When I run refactored unavailable.exp, I find
command display behaves a little different on live inferior and on
examining traceframes. In live inferior, when command "display argc"
is typed, the value of "argc" is shown.
(gdb) display argc
1: argc = 1 '\001'
however, on tfile target, when command "display argc" is typed, the
value of "argc" is not shown.
(gdb) tfind
Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 1
at ../../../../git/gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/unavailable.cc:198
198 i = (int) argc + argi + argf + argd + argstruct.memberi + argarray[1];
(gdb) display argc
I also notice that on "core" target, the value of "argc" isn't shown
either. This difference is caused by the code below in printcmd.c:display_command,
if (from_tty && target_has_execution)
do_one_display (new);
Looks the value of each display is shown if the target has execution.
Source code archaeology doesn't tell much about this requirement.
However, if we type command "display" then on "core" or "tfile"
target, the value of "argc" is still displayed,
for "core" target,
(gdb) display argc
(gdb) display
1: argc = 1 '\001'
for "tfile" target,
(gdb) display argc
(gdb) display
1: argc = <unavailable>
I feel that it is not necessary to have such "target has execution"
requirement to show the value of new created display. Auto-display is
a feature to show the value of expression frequently, has nothing to
do with whether target has execution or not. On the other hand, GDB
has the requirement for new created display, but command "display" can
still show them, this is an inconsistency, which should be fixed.
This patch is to remove the checking to target_has_execution from the
condition.

This commit is actually an update to make the parser in
gdb/stap-probe.c be aware of all the possible prefixes that a probe
argument can have. According to the section "Argument Format" in:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
The bitness of the arguments can be 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits, signed or
unsigned. Currently GDB recognizes only 32 and 64-bit arguments.
This commit extends this. It also provides a testcase, only for
x86_64 systems.

This commit fixes PR breakpoints/16889, which is about a bug that
triggers when GDB tries to parse probes whose arguments do not contain
the initial (and optional) "N@" part. For reference sake, the de
facto format is described here:
<https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation>
Anyway, this PR actually uncovered two bugs (related) that were
happening while parsing the arguments. The first one was that the
parser *was* catching *some* arguments that were missing the "N@"
part, but it wasn't correctly setting the argument's type. This was
causing a NULL pointer being dereferenced, ouch...
The second bug uncovered was that the parser was not catching all of
the cases for a probe which did not provide the "N@" part. The fix
for that was to simplify the check that the code was making to
identify non-prefixed probes. The code is simpler and easier to read
now.
I am also providing a testcase for this bug, only for x86_64
architectures.

In a test I was writting, I needed a procedure that would connect to
the target, and do "load", or equivalent.
Years ago, boards would override gdb_load to implement that. Then
gdb_reload was added, and gdb_load was relaxed to allow boards avoid
the spawing and connecting to the target. This sped up gdbserver
testing. See
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-02/msg00318.html.
To actually spawn the target and load the executable on the target
side, gdb_reload was born:
# gdb_reload -- load a file into the target. Called before "running",
# either the first time or after already starting the program once,
# for remote targets. Most files that override gdb_load should now
# override this instead.
proc gdb_reload { } {
# For the benefit of existing configurations, default to gdb_load.
# Specifying no file defaults to the executable currently being
# debugged.
return [gdb_load ""]
}
Note the comment about specifying no file. Indeed looking at
config/sid.exp, or config/monitor.exp, we see examples of that.
However, the default gdb_load itself doesn't handle the case of no
file specified. When passed no file, it just calls gdb_file_cmd with
no file either, which ends up invocing the "file" command with no
argument, which means unloading the file and its symbols... That
means calling gdb_reload when testing against native targets is
broken. We don't see that today because the only call to gdb_reload
that exists today is guarded by target_info exists
gdb,do_reload_on_run.
The native-extended-gdbserver.exp board is likewise broken here. When
[gdb_load ""] is called, the board sets the remote exec-file to "" ...

extended-remote gdbserver.

When connecting to a remote system, we use the compare-sections
command to verify that the box is running the code that we think it is
running. Since the system is up and running and *NOT* 'freshly
downloaded without yet executing anything', read-write sections, of
course, differ from what they were in the executable file.
Comparing read-write sections takes time and more importantly the
MIS-MATCHED output is confusing to some users.
The compare-sections command compares all loadable sections including
read-write sections. This patch gives the user the option to compare
just the loadable read-only sections.

This adds a variant of local-remote-host-notty.exp that forces
pseudo-tty allocation, so that readline/editing is enabled.
$ ssh localhost gdb -q

Editing of command lines as they are typed is off.

vs:
$ ssh -t localhost gdb -q

We now get, e.g.:
Running ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/filesym.exp ...
PASS: gdb.base/filesym.exp: complete on "filesy"
PASS: gdb.base/filesym.exp: completion list for "filesym"

When testing with this board, stdin is not a tty, and so
readline/editing is disabled:
$ ssh localhost gdb -q

... and others. The recent patch that fixed several "set remote
foo-packet on/off" commands introduced a regression, observable when
connecting GDB to QEMU. For instance:
(gdb) set debug remote 1
(gdb) tar rem :4444
Remote debugging using :4444

!!! -> Sending packet: $QNonStop:0#8c...Ack
Packet received:
Remote refused setting all-stop mode with:
The "QNonStop" feature is associated with the PACKET_QNonStop packet,
with a default of PACKET_DISABLE, so GDB should not be sending the
packet at all.
The patch that introduced the regression decoupled packet_config's
'detect' and 'support' fields, making the former (an auto_boolean)
purely the associated "set remote foo-packet" command's variable. In
the example above, the packet config's 'supported' field does end up
correctly set to PACKET_DISABLE. However, nothing is presently
initializing packet configs that don't actually have a command
associated. Those configs's 'detect' field then ends up set to
AUTO_BOOLEAN_TRUE, simply because that happens to be 0. This forces
GDB to assume the packet is supported, irrespective of what the target
claims it supports, just like if the user had done "set remote
foo-packet on" (this being the associated command, if there was one).
Ideally, all packet configs would have a command associated. While
that isn't true, make sure all packet configs are initialized, even if
no command is associated, and add an assertion that prevents adding
more packets/features without an associated command.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, against pristine gdbserver, and against a
gdbserver with the QNonStop packet/feature disabled with a local hack.

* remote.c (struct packet_config) <detect>: Extend comment.
(add_packet_config_cmd): Don't set the config's detect or support
fields here.
(init_all_packet_configs): Also initialize the config's 'detect'
field.
(reset_all_packet_configs_support): New function.
(remote_open_1): Call reset_all_packet_configs_support instead of
init_all_packet_configs.
(_initialize_remote): Initialize all packet configs. Assert that
all packets have an associated command, except a few known
outliers.
This add a testcases that verifies correct handling of dynamicity
for lower bounds of arrays.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/dyn_arrayidx: New testcase.
Currently, read_subrange_type handles dynamicity only in the case of
the upper bound, and assumes that the lower bound is always static.
That's rooted in the fact that dynamicity was added to support C99
variable-length arrays, where the lower bound is always zero, and
therefore never dynamic. But the lower bound can, in fact, be dynamic
in other languages such as Ada.
Consider for instance the following declaration in Ada...
type Array_Type is array (L .. U) of Natural;
... where L and U are parameters of the function where the declaration
above was made, and whose value are 5 and 10. Currently, the debugger
is able to print the value of the upper bound correctly, but not the
lower bound:
(gdb) ptype array_type
type = array (1 .. 10) of natural
After this patch, the debugger now prints:
(gdb) ptype array_type
type = array (5 .. 10) of natural
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (read_subrange_type): Handle dynamic
DW_AT_lower_bound attributes.
Consider the following declaration in Ada...
type Array_Type is array (L .. U) of Natural;
... where L and U are parameters of the function where the declaration
above was made. At the moment, GDB relies on descriptive types in order
to properly decode the array bounds. For instance, if L was 5, and U
was 10, we would see the following:
(gdb) ptype array_type
type = array (5 .. 10) of natural
(gdb) maintenance set ada ignore-descriptive-types
(gdb) ptype array_type
type = array (1 .. 28544912) of natural
This patch enhances ada_discrete_type_{high,low}_bound to resolve
any dynamicity. This is sufficient to fix the case of the upper bound.
For the lower bound, the dwarf2read module does not handle dynamic
lower bounds yet, but once it does, the lower bound should be correctly
handled as well [1].
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_discrete_type_high_bound): Resolve the type's
dynamic bounds before computing its upper bound.
(ada_discrete_type_low_bound): Same as above with the lower bound.
[1]: The reason why we do not enhance dwarf2read to handle dynamic
lower bounds ahead of this patch is because it unveils some latent
issues such as this one.
This change breaks down the resolve_dynamic_bounds function which
works only on arrays and its index range types into two functions,
one that resolves range types, and one that resolves arrays (using
the new routine to resolve the array's index range type). The
is_dynamic_type and resolve_dynamic_type function are then re-organized
to handle range types as well.
One small change worth mentioning is the fact that, now that range
types are resolved on their own (rather than in the limited context
of array index types), the resolved range types are created from
a copy of the dynamic range type, rather than from scratch (first
parameter of create_range_type). This allows us to preserve as many
original properties in the resolved type as possible (Eg. the type's
name).
This is preparation work that will help better support dynamic range
types for languages that allow the declaration of such types (Eg. Ada).
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (is_dynamic_type): Return true for dynamic
range types. Adjust the array handling implementation to
take advantage of this change.
(resolve_dynamic_range): New function, mostly extracted from
resolve_dynamic_bounds.
(resolve_dynamic_array): New function, mostly extracted from
resolve_dynamic_bounds.
(resolve_dynamic_bounds): Delete.
(resolve_dynamic_type): Reimplement. Add handling of
TYPE_CODE_RANGE types.
ada-varobj.c::ada_varobj_describe_simple_array_child only ever gets
called after all GNAT encodings have been applied to (parent_value,
parent_type). So there is no point in redoing it partially by
checking for parallel XA types again.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-varobj.c (ada_varobj_describe_simple_array_child): Remove
handling of parallel ___XA types.
In ada-lang.c::ada_evaluate_subexp, case OP_VAR_VALUE, when noside
is EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS, the first thing we do is set type as
follow:
type = static_unwrap_type (SYMBOL_TYPE (exp->elts[pc + 2].symbol));
Later on in the same block, we make the same call:
return value_zero
(to_static_fixed_type
(static_unwrap_type (SYMBOL_TYPE (exp->elts[pc + 2].symbol))),
not_lval);
This patch removes the second call, since it should result in the same
type being returned, so no point in making that call again.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_evaluate_subexp) <OP_VAR_VALUE>: Remove
unnecessary second call to static_unwrap_type.
