breakpoints/22569 involves an internal error generated by the rather
innocent looking command:
(gdb) break -source test.cpp main
.../linespec.c:3302: internal-error: void decode_line_full(...):
Assertion `result.size () == 1 || canonical->pre_expanded' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The input string is tokenized into "-source", "test.cpp", and "main"
(input parsing breaks on whitespace). create_breakpoint is then called with
the explicit location (containing only the source file name) and "main" as
the extra_string argument.
No SaLs are created for this underspecified explicit location, and the
"result.size () == 1" evaluates false (as does the pre_expanded condition).
This triggers the assertion.
Normally string_to_explicit_location validates the input string. However,
the presence of the string "main" causes the parser to exit early:
802 else
803 {
804 /* End of the explicit location specification.
805 Stop parsing and return whatever explicit location was
806 parsed. */
807 *argp = start;
808 return location;
809 }
This bypasses the validation that is done a few lines down in this function
which would have emitted the expected error. This patch fixes that.
Additionally, this patch also fixes an inconsistency with error reporting
in this use case:
(gdb) b -source foo
Source filename requires function, label, or line offset.
(gdb) b -source foo main
No source file named foo.
These two commands should have elicited the same error message.
gdb/ChangeLog:
PR breakpoints/22569
* location.c (string_to_explicit_location): When terminating
parsing early, break out of enclosing loop instead of returning.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
PR breakpoints/22569
* gdb.linespec/ls-errs.exp: Change expected result of "break
-source this file has spaces.c -line 3".
Check that an explicit source file followed by whitespace is
identified as an invalid explicit location.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
