This patch addresses timeout failures i noticed while testing aarch64-elf. FAIL: gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: complete unique function name (timeout) FAIL: gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: complete non-unique function name (timeout) FAIL: gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: complete non-existant function name (timeout) FAIL: gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: complete unique file name (timeout) FAIL: gdb.linespec/explicit.exp: complete non-unique file name (timeout) The timeouts were caused by an attempt to match a bell character (x07) that doesn't show up on my particular test setup. The bell character is output whenever one tries to complete a pattern and there are multiple possible matches. When there is only one possible match, GDB will complete the input pattern without outputting the bell character. The reason for the discrepancy in this test's behavior is due to the use of "main" for a unique name test. On glibc-based systems, GDB may notice the "main_arena" symbol, which is a data global part of glibc's malloc implementation. Therefore a bell character will be output because we have a couple possible completion matches. GDB should not be outputting such a data symbol as a possible match, but this problem may/will be addressed in a future change and is besides the point of this particular change. On systems that are not based on glibc, GDB will not see any other possible matches for completing "main", so there will be no bell characters. The use of main is a bit fragile though, so the patch adds a new local function with a name that has a greater chance of being unique and adjusts the test to iuse it. I've also added the regular expression switch (-re) to all the gdb_test_multiple calls that were missing it. Hopefully this will reduce the chances of someone wasting time trying to match a regular expression (a much more common use case) when, in reality, the pattern is supposed to be matched literally. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2017-02-13 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com> * gdb.linespec/explicit.c (my_unique_function_name): New function.

This test attempts to load a x86 core file no matter what target architectures the tested GDB supports. If GDB doesn't know how to handle a i386 target, it is very likely the core file will not be recognized. In this case we should still attempt to load a core file to make sure GDB doesn't crash or throws an internal error. But we should not proceed to try to read memory unconditionally. This patch makes the test check for proper i386 arch support in GDB and bails out if i386 is not supported and the core file format is not recognized. This addresses the spurious aarch64-elf failures i'm seeing for this test. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2017-02-13 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com> * gdb.arch/i386-biarch-core.exp: Check for i386 arch support and return if core file is not recognized.

This is a follow-up to https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-02/msg00261.html This patch restricts queries to the main UI, which allows to avoid two different problems. The first one is that GDB is issuing queries on secondary MI channels for which a TTY is allocated. The second one is that GDB is not able to handle queries on two (CLI) UIs simultaneously. Restricting queries to the main UI allows to bypass these two problems. More details on how/why these two problems happen: 1. Queries on secondary MI UI The current criterion to decide if we should query the user is whether the input stream is a TTY. The original way to start GDB in MI mode from a front-end was to create a subprocess with pipes to its stdin/stdout. In this case, the input was considered non-interactive and queries were auto-answered. Now that front-ends can create the MI channel as a separate UI connected to a dedicated TTY, GDB now considers this input stream as interactive and sends queries to it. By restricting queries to the main UI, we make sure we never query on the secondary MI UI. 2. Simultaneous queries As Pedro stated it, when you have two queries on two different CLI UIs at the same time, you end up with the following pseudo stack: #0 gdb_readline_wrapper #1 defaulted_query // for UI #2 #2 handle_command #3 execute_command ("handle SIGTRAP" .... #4 stdin_event_handler // input on UI #2 #5 gdb_do_one_event #7 gdb_readline_wrapper #8 defaulted_query // for UI #1 #9 handle_command #10 execute_command ("handle SIGINT" .... #11 stdin_event_handler // input on UI #1 #12 gdb_do_one_event #13 gdb_readline_wrapper trying to answer the query on UI #1 will therefore answer for UI #2. By restricting the queries to the main UI, we ensure that there will never be more than one pending query, since you can't have two queries on a UI at the same time. I added a snippet to gdb.base/new-ui.exp to verify that we get a query on the main UI, but that we don't on the secondary one (or, more precisely, that it gets auto-answered). gdb/ChangeLog: * utils.c (defaulted_query): Don't query on secondary UIs. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/new-ui.exp (do_test): Test queries behavior on main and extra UIs.

This patch introduces a bit of infrastructure -- namely, a minimal std::optional analogue called gdb::optional, and an RAII template class that works like make_cleanup_ui_out_tuple_begin_end or make_cleanup_ui_out_list_begin_end -- and then uses these in the Python code. This removes a number of cleanups and generally simplifies this code. std::optional is only available in C++17. Normally I would have had this code check __cplusplus, but my gcc apparently isn't new enough to find <optional>, even with -std=c++1z; so, because I could not test it, the patch does not do this. gdb/ChangeLog 2017-02-10 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * ui-out.h (ui_out_emit_type): New class.

Currently, the breakpoint documentation refers to some commands taking breakpoint "ranges" as arguments.

This commit removes interp::quiet_p / interp_quiet_p / interp_set_quiet, because AFAICS, it doesn't really do anything. interp_quiet is only ever checked inside interp_set nowadays: if (!first_time && !interp_quiet_p (interp)) { xsnprintf (buffer, sizeof (buffer), "Switching to interpreter \"%.24s\".\n", interp->name); current_uiout->text (buffer); } I did a bit of archaelogy, and found that back in 4a8f6654 (2003), it was also called in another place, to decide whether to print the CLI prompt. AFAICS, that condition is always false today, making that if/then block always dead code. If we remove that code, then there are no interp_quiet_p uses left in the tree, so we can remove it all. There are two paths that lead to interp_set calls: #1 - When installing the top level interpreter. In this case, FIRST_TIME is true. #2 - In interpreter_exec_cmd. In this case, the interpreter is always set quiet before interp_set is called. Grepping a gdb.log of an x86_64 GNU/Linux run for "Switching to interpreter" (before this patch) doesn't find any hits. I suspect the intention of this message was to support something like a "set interpreter ..." command that would change the interpreter permanently. But there's no such command. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-02-08 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * interps.c (interp::interp): Remove reference to quiet_p. (interp_set): Make static.
