2016-09-24Fix a use of target_mourn_inferior in windows-nat.cJon Turney1-0/+5
One use of target_mourn_interior seems to have been missed in bc1e6c81 gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-23 Jon Turney <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk> * windows-nat.c (windows_delete_thread): Adjusting call to target_mourn_inferior to include ptid_t argument.
2016-09-23Use std::string rather than dyn-stringTom Tromey1-0/+9
This patch changes some code in cli-cmds.c to use std::string rather than dyn-string, removing some cleanups. Since this was the last use of dyn-string in gdb, this patch also removes make_cleanup_dyn_string_delete. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (make_cleanup_dyn_string_delete): Remove declaration. * utils.c: Don't include dyn-string.h. (do_dyn_string_delete, make_cleanup_dyn_string_delete): Remove. * cli/cli-cmds.c: Include <string>. Don't include dyn-string.h. (argv_to_string): Rename. Change return type to std::string. (alias_command): Use std::string.
2016-09-23Use std::vector in objfiles.cTom Tromey1-0/+5
This patch changes a spot in objfiles.c to use a std::vector, removing a cleanup. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * objfiles.c: Include <vector>. (objfile_relocate): Use std::vector.
2016-09-23Use std::string, std::vector in rust-lang.cTom Tromey1-0/+7
This patch changes some spots in rust-lang.c to use std::string or std::vector, removing some cleanups. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * rust-lang.c: Include <string> and <vector>. (rust_evaluate_funcall): Use std::vector, std::string. (rust_evaluate_subexp): Use std::string. (rust_lookup_symbol_nonlocal): Use std::string.
2016-09-23Use std::string in cp-namespace.cTom Tromey1-0/+7
This changes a few spots in cp-namespace.c to use std::string, removing some cleanups. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * cp-namespace.c: Include <string>. (cp_search_static_and_baseclasses) (cp_lookup_symbol_imports_or_template, find_symbol_in_baseclass): Use std::string.
2016-09-23Use std::string in break-catch-sig.cTom Tromey1-0/+5
This changes one spot in break-catch-sig.c to use std::string, removing some cleanups. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * break-catch-sig.c: Include <string>. (signal_catchpoint_print_one): Use std::string.
2016-09-23Remove some unnecessary codeTom Tromey1-0/+5
This patch removes some unnecessary code. In particular, terminate_minimal_symbol_table is declared in minsyms.h, so it doesn't need to be declared in objfiles.h as well. And, restore_ui_out_closure was rendered unnecessary by an earlier patch, so the structure definition can be removed now. I'm checking this in as obvious. Tested by rebuilding on x86-64 Fedora 24 with --enable-targets=all; which would notice any missing includes of minsyms.h. 2016-09-23 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.c (struct restore_ui_out_closure): Remove. * objfiles.h (terminate_minimal_symbol_table): Don't declare.

On the other hand, it is always preferred to use xsnprintf. gdb: 2016-09-23 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * nat/linux-osdata.c (linux_xfer_osdata_threads): Replace sprintf with xsnprintf. (linux_xfer_osdata_fds): Likewise.
2016-09-23gdb: Replace operator new / operator new[]Pedro Alves1-0/+9
If xmalloc fails allocating memory, usually because something tried a huge allocation, like xmalloc(-1) or some such, GDB asks the user what to do: .../src/gdb/utils.c:1079: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) If the user says "n", that throws a QUIT exception, which is caught by one of the multiple CATCH(RETURN_MASK_ALL) blocks somewhere up the stack. The default implementations of operator new / operator new[] call malloc directly, and on memory allocation failure throw std::bad_alloc. Currently, if that happens, since nothing catches it, the exception escapes out of main, and GDB aborts from unhandled exception. This patch replaces the default operator new variants with versions that, just like xmalloc: #1 - Raise an internal-error on memory allocation failure. #2 - Throw a QUIT gdb_exception, so that the exact same CATCH blocks continue handling memory allocation problems. A minor complication of #2 is that operator new can _only_ throw std::bad_alloc, or something that extends it: void* operator new (std::size_t size) throw (std::bad_alloc); That means that if we let a gdb QUIT exception escape from within operator new, the C++ runtime aborts due to unexpected exception thrown. So to bridge the gap, this patch adds a new gdb_quit_bad_alloc exception type that inherits both std::bad_alloc and gdb_exception, and throws _that_. If we decide that we should be catching memory allocation errors in fewer places than all the places we currently catch them (everywhere we use RETURN_MASK_ALL currently), then we could change operator new to throw plain std::bad_alloc then. But I'm considering such a change as separate matter from this one -- it'd make sense to do the same to xmalloc at the same time, for instance. Meanwhile, this allows using new/new[] instead of xmalloc/XNEW/etc. without losing the "virtual memory exhausted" internal-error safeguard. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-23 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add common/new-op.c. (COMMON_OBS): Add common/new-op.o.

2016-09-22arc: Fix ARI warning for printf(%p)Anton Kolesov1-0/+4
Replace printf ("%p") with printf ("%s", host_address_to_string ()). Printing host addrss might make sense here because pointers can be null and this would affect how function behaves. This particular warning is printed only when option -Wari is passed to contrib/ari/gdb_ari.sh gdb/ChangeLog: * arc-tdep.c: Fix ARI warning for printf(%p).

2016-09-21arc: New Synopsys ARC portAnton Kolesov1-0/+15
ARC is a family of licensable processors developed by Synopsys. This is an initial patch that doesn't yet support some of the features, that are already available in Synopsys' fork of GDB, namely: * longjmp support * signal frame handling * prologue analysis * Linux targets support * native Linux support ARC cores are configurable and extensible, which means from debugger perspective that some registers and debug capabilities are optional, therefore it is up to the GDB stub to determine exact list of register available on target and supply it to GDB via XML target descriptions. List of registers that is known to GDB and is required is intentionally kept small to simplify requirements to GDB stub and implementation of a GDB client. gdb/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in (ALL_TARGET_OBS): Add arc-tdep.o. (HFILES_NO_SRCDIR): Add arc-tdep.h. (ALLDEPFILES): Add arc-tdep.c. * NEWS: Mention new ARC port. * configure.tgt: Add ARC. * arc-tdep.c: New file. * arc-tdep.h: New file. * features/Makefile (XMLTOC): Add arc-v2.xml and arc-arcompact.xml. * features/arc-v2.xml: New file. * features/arc-v2.c: New file (generated). * features/arc-arcompact.xml: New file. * features/arc-arcompact.c: New file (generated). gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Embedded Processors): Document ARC.

2016-09-21ppc: Fix return of instruction handlers in ppc_process_record_op63Edjunior Barbosa Machado1-0/+5
some instruction handlers in ppc_process_record_op63() seem to be missing return or incorrectly using break. This patch aims to fix that. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-21 Edjunior Barbosa Machado <emachado@linux.vnet.ibm.com> * rs6000-tdep.c (ppc_process_record_op63): Fix return of instruction handlers.
2016-09-21PR gdb/20604 - fix "quit" when an invalid expression is usedTom Tromey1-0/+8
This fixes PR gdb/20604. The bug here is that passing an invalid expression to "quit" -- e.g., "quit()" -- causes gdb to enter a non-functioning state. The immediate problem is that quit_force resets the terminal before evaluating the expression. However, it seemed to me that it doesn't really make sense to pass the quit_force argument to kill_or_detach (which passes it to to_detach), first because conflating the exit status for "quit" and the signal to pass when detaching doesn't make sense, and second because to_detach implementations generally only accept a constant here, while "quit" accepts an expression. So, I removed that. As an aside, I think the "detach SIGNO" functionality is not documented. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24. 2016-09-21 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/20604: * top.h (quit_force): Update. * top.c (quit_force): Changed type of first argument. Don't evaluate expression. Pass NULL to kill_or_detach. * cli/cli-cmds.c (quit_command): Evaluate "args". 2016-09-21 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/20604: * gdb.base/quit.exp: New file.
2016-09-21Update and add .gitignore'sSimon Marchi1-0/+5
This patch adds a bunch of generated files to gdb's gitignore files. There are still a bunch of "stamp" files that are not ignored, but I think the rule for them should be put in the top-level gitignore. Users and developers are encouraged to build out-of-tree, but some people prefer the simplicity to build in-tree, so it should be useful for them. gdb/ChangeLog: * .gitignore: Ignore more files. * data-directory/.gitignore: Likewise. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * .gitignore: New file. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: * .gitinore: Ignore more files. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * .gitignore: New file.

2016-09-21Keep reserved bits in CPSR on writeYao Qi1-0/+5
In patch https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-04/msg00529.html I cleared reserved bits when reading CPSR. It makes a problem that these bits (zero) are written back to kernel through ptrace, and it changes the state of the processor on some recent kernel, which is unexpected. In this patch, I keep these reserved bits when write CPSR back to hardware. gdb: 2016-09-21 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * aarch32-linux-nat.c (aarch32_gp_regcache_collect): Keep bits 20 to 23. gdb/gdbserver: 2016-09-21 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * linux-aarch32-low.c (arm_fill_gregset): Keep bits 20 to 23.
2016-09-20Avoid -Wduplicated-cond warnings in gdb/pythonTom Tromey1-0/+7
I tried building gdb with -Wduplicated-cond. This patch fixes the simpler issue that was found. In Python 3, "int" and "long" are synonyms, so code like: else if (PyLong_Check (obj)) ... else if (PyInt_Check (obj)) .... will trigger this warning. The fix is to conditionalize the PyInt_Check branches on Python 2. Tested by rebuilding, with both version of Python, on x86-64 Fedora 24. 2016-09-20 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-value.c (convert_value_from_python): Make PyInt_Check conditional on Python 2. * python/py-arch.c (archpy_disassemble): Make PyInt_Check conditional on Python 2.

2016-09-20Use 'event_ptid' instead of 'resume_ptid' on startup_inferior (fix for ↵Sergio Durigan Junior1-0/+6
regression on my last commit) Pedro pointed out a regression happening on gdb.mi/mi-exec-run.exp, and as it turned out, this was a thinko when dealing with some events on startup_inferior. Basically, one needs to pass 'event_ptid' to target_mourn_inferior, but I mistakenly passed 'resume_ptid'. This commit fixes it. Built and regtested on BuildBot, now with fixed e-mail notifications! gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-20 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> * fork-inferior.c (startup_inferior): Pass 'event_ptid' instead of 'resume_ptid' to 'target_mourn_inferior'. Fix regression introduced by my last commit.
2016-09-19gdb: Fix build breakage with GCC 4.1 and --disable-nlsPedro Alves1-0/+7
Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-09/msg00203.html The std::{min,max} patch caused build failures when configuring GDB with with --disable-nls and using GCC 4.1. The reason is this bit in common/gdb_locale.h: #ifdef ENABLE_NLS ... #else # define gettext(Msgid) (Msgid) ... #endif This causes problems if the <libintl.h> header is first included at any point after "gdb_locale.h". Specifically, the gettext&co declarations in libintl.h: extern char *gettext (__const char *__msgid) __THROW __attribute_format_arg__ (1); end up broken after preprocessing: extern char *(__const char *__msgid) throw () __attribute__ ((__format_arg__ (1))); After the std::min/std::max change to include <algorithm>, this now happens with at least the GCC 4.1 copy of <algorithm>, which includes <libintl.h> via <bits/stl_algobase.h>, <iosfwd>, and <bits/c++locale.h>. The fix is to simply remove the troublesome *gettext and *textdomain macros, leaving only the _ and N_ ones. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * common/gdb_locale.h [!ENABLE_NLS] (gettext, dgettext, dcgettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain): Delete macros. * main.c (captured_main) [!ENABLE_NLS]: Skip bintextdomain and textdomain calls.
2016-09-19Consolidate target_mourn_inferior between GDB and gdbserverSergio Durigan Junior1-0/+27
This patch consolidates the API of target_mourn_inferior between GDB and gdbserver, in my continuing efforts to make sharing the fork_inferior function possible between both. GDB's version of the function did not care about the inferior's ptid being mourned, but gdbserver's needed to know this information. Since it actually makes sense to pass the ptid as an argument, instead of depending on a global value directly (which GDB's version did), I decided to make the generic API to accept it. I then went on and extended all calls being made on GDB to include a ptid argument (which ended up being inferior_ptid most of the times, anyway), and now we have a more sane interface. On GDB's side, after talking to Pedro a bit about it, we decided that just an assertion to make sure that the ptid being passed is equal to inferior_ptid would be enough for now, on the GDB side. We can remove the assertion and perform more operations later if we ever pass anything different than inferior_ptid. Regression tested on our BuildBot, everything OK. I'd appreciate a special look at gdb/windows-nat.c's modification because I wasn't really sure what to do there. It seemed to me that maybe I should build a ptid out of the process information there, but then I am almost sure the assertion on GDB's side would trigger. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-19 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> * darwin-nat.c (darwin_kill_inferior): Adjusting call to target_mourn_inferior to include ptid_t argument. * fork-child.c (startup_inferior): Likewise. * gnu-nat.c (gnu_kill_inferior): Likewise. * inf-ptrace.c (inf_ptrace_kill): Likewise. * infrun.c (handle_inferior_event_1): Likewise. * linux-nat.c (linux_nat_attach): Likewise.

2016-09-09Pass HWCAP to ifunc resolverAndreas Arnez1-0/+5
On various GNU Elf architectures, including AArch64, ARM, s390/s390x, ppc32/64, and sparc32/64, the dynamic loader passes HWCAP as a parameter to each ifunc resolver. Currently there is an open glibc Bugzilla that requests this to be generalized to all architectures: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19766 And various ifunc resolvers already rely on receiving HWCAP. Currently GDB always calls an ifunc resolver without any arguments; thus the resolver may receive garbage, and based on that, the resolver may decide to return a function that is not suited for the given platform. This patch always passes HWCAP to ifunc resolvers, even on systems where the dynamic loader currently behaves otherwise. The rationale is that (1) the dynamic loader may get adjusted on those systems as well in the future; (2) passing an unused argument should not cause a problem with existing resolvers; and (3) the logic is much simpler without such a distinction. gdb/ChangeLog: * elfread.c (auxv.h): New include. (elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_addr): Pass HWCAP to ifunc resolver. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/gnu-ifunc-lib.c (resolver_hwcap): New external variable declaration. (gnu_ifunc): Add parameter hwcap.

2016-09-06new-ui command: gdb internal errors if input is already pendingPedro Alves1-0/+6
I noticed that if input is already pending on the new-ui TTY, gdb internal-errors. E.g., create /dev/pts/2, and type anything there (even just <return> is sufficient). Now start GDB creating a new UI on that TTY, while at the same time, running a synchronous execution command. Something like: $ gdb program -ex "new-ui console /dev/pts/2" -ex "start" Back on /dev/pts/2, we get: (gdb) .../src/gdb/event-top.c:360: internal-error: double prompt A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. While the main UI was waiting for "start" to finish, gdb kepts pumping events, including the input fd of the extra console. The problem is that stdin_event_handler doesn't restore the current UI back to what it was, assuming that it's only ever called from the top level event loop. However, in this case, it's being called from the nested event loop from within maybe_wait_sync_command_done. When finally the "start" command is done, we reach the code that prints the prompt in the main UI, just before starting the main event loop. Since now the current UI is pointing at the extra console (by mistake), we find ourselves printing a double prompt on the extra console. This is caught by the assertion that fails, as shown above. Since other event handlers also don't restore the UI (e.g., signal event handlers), I think it's better if whatever is pumping events to take care to restore the UI, if it cares. That's what this patch does. New test included. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * top.c (wait_sync_command_done): Don't assume current_ui doesn't change across events.

2016-09-06Support 128-bit IEEE floating-point types on Intel and PowerUlrich Weigand1-0/+7
Now that all the prerequisites are in place, this commit finally adds support for handling the __float128 type on Intel and Power, by providing appropriate platform-specific versions of the floatformat_for_type callback. Since at this point we do not yet have any indication in the debug info to distinguish different floating-point formats of the same length, we simply use the type name as hint. Types named "__float128" get the IEEE format. In addition to handling "__float128" itself, we also recognize "_Float128" and (on Power) "_Float64x", as well as the complex versions of those. (As pointed out by Joseph Myers, starting with GCC 7, __float128 is just a typedef for _Float128 -- but it's good to handle this anyway.) A new test case does some simple verification that the format is decoded correctly, using both __float128 and "long double" to make sure using both in the same file still works. Another new test verifies handling of the _FloatN and _FloatNx types supported by GCC 7, as well as the complex versions of those types. Note that this still only supports basic format decoding and encoding. We do not yet support the GNU extension 'g' suffix for __float128 constants. In addition, since all *arithmetic* on floating-point values is still performed in native host "long double" arithmetic, if that format is not able to encode all target __float128 values, we may get incorrect results. (To fix this would require implementing fully synthetic target floating- point arithmetic along the lines of GCC's real.c, presumably using MPFR.) gdb/ChangeLog: * i386-tdep.c (i386_floatformat_for_type): New function.

2016-09-06Add gdbarch callback to provide formats for debug info float typesUlrich Weigand1-0/+17
At this point, all TYPE_CODE_FLT types carry their floating-point format, except for those creating from reading DWARF or stabs debug info. Those will be addressed by this commit. The main issue here is that we actually have to determine which floating- point format to use. Currently, we only have the type length as input to this decision. In the future, we may hopefully get --at least in DWARF-- additional information to help disambiguate multiple different formats of the same length. For now, we can still look at the type name as a hint. This decision logic is encapsulated in a gdbarch callback to allow platform-specific overrides. The default implementation use the same logic (compare type length against the various gdbarch_..._bit sizes) that is currently implemented in floatformat_from_length. With this commit, all platforms still use the default logic, so there should be no actual change in behavior. A follow-on commit will add support for __float128 on Intel and Power. Once dwarf2read.c and stabsread.c make use of the new callback to determine floating-point formats, we're now sure every TYPE_CODE_FLT type will always carry its format. The commit therefore adds asserts to verify_floatformat to ensure new code will continue to always provide formats, and removes the code in floatformat_from_type that used to handle types with a NULL TYPE_FLOATFORMAT. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbarch.sh (floatformat_for_type): New gdbarch callback. * gdbarch.h, gdbarch.c: Re-generate. * arch-utils.h (default_floatformat_for_type): New prototype. * arch-utils.c (default_floatformat_for_type): New function. * doublest.c (floatformat_from_length): Remove.

2016-09-06Add missing format for built-in floating-point typesUlrich Weigand1-0/+15
Many callers of init_float_type and arch_float_type still pass a NULL floatformat. This commit changes those callers where the floatformat that is supposed to be use is obvious. There are two categories where this is the case: - A number of built-in types are intended to match the platform ABI floating-point types (i.e. types that use gdbarch_float_bit etc.). Those places should use the platform ABI floating-point formats defined via gdbarch_float_format etc. - A number of language built-in types should simply use IEEE floating- point formats, since the language actually defines that this is the format that must be used to implement floating-point types for this language. (This affects Java, Go, and Rust.) The same applies for to the predefined "RS/6000" stabs floating-point built-in types. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-lang.c (ada_language_arch_info): Use gdbarch-provided platform ABI floating-point formats for built-in types. * d-lang.c (build_d_types): Likewise. * f-lang.c (build_fortran_types): Likewise. * m2-lang.c (build_m2_types): Likewise. * mdebugread.c (basic_type): Likewise. * go-lang.c (build_go_types): Use IEEE floating-point formats for language built-in types as mandanted by the language. * jv-lang.c (build_java_types): Likewise. * rust-lang.c (rust_language_arch_info): Likewise. * stabsread.c (rs6000_builtin_type): Likewise.

2016-09-06Remove TYPE_NOSIGN "char" hackUlrich Weigand1-0/+9
init_type (and arch_integer_type) currently use a special hack to set the TYPE_NOSIGN flag if the type name is exactly "char". This commit moves the hack up to the callers of those routines. The special case currently can hit only for types created from dwarf2read, but read_base_type actually implements the "char" check itself, so it is redundant to do it in init_type as well. (Note that stabsread.c and the other type readers always pass NULL as name to init_type, so the special case can never hit for those.) A few other cases create pre-definded types with a hard-coded name of "char"; the commit simply moves setting the TYPE_NOSIGN flag to those places. No functional change intended. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbtypes.c (init_type): Remove "char" special case. (arch_integer_type): Likewise. (gdbtypes_post_init): Set TYPE_NOSIGN for "char" type.

Now that init_type no longer takes a FLAGS argument, there is no user of the TYPE_FLAGS_... enum values left. This commit removes them (and all references to them in comments as well). This is mostly a no-op, except for a change to the Python type printer, which attempted to use them before.

2016-09-06Unify init_type and arch_type interface and helpersUlrich Weigand1-0/+41
This adds a number of helper routines for creating objfile-owned types; these correspond 1:1 to the already existing helper routines for creating gdbarch-owned types, and are intended to be used instead of init_type. A shared fragment of init_float_type and arch_float_type is extracted into a separate subroutine verify_subroutine. The commit also brings the interface of init_type in line with the one for arch_type. In particular, this means removing the FLAGS argument; callers now set the required flags directly. (Since most callers use the new helper routines, very few callers actually need to set any additional flags directly any more.) Note that this means all the TYPE_FLAGS_... defined are no longer needed anywhere; they will be removed by a follow-on commit. All users of init_type are changed to use on of the new helpers where possible. No functional change intended. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbtypes.h (init_type): Remove FLAGS argument.

2016-09-05Fix PR19927: Avoid unwinder recursion if sniffer uses calls parse_and_evalPedro Alves1-0/+11
This fixes the problem exercised by Kevin's test at: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html This was originally exposed by the OpenJDK Python-based unwinder. If an unwinder attempts to call parse_and_eval from within its sniffing method, GDB's unwinding machinery enters infinite recursion. However, parse_and_eval is a pretty reasonable thing to call, because Python/Scheme-based unwinders will often need to read globals out of inferior memory. The recursion happens because: - get_current_frame() is called soon after the target stops. - current_frame is NULL, and so we unwind it from the sentinel frame (which is special and has level == -1). - We reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, which does cycle detection based on frame id, and thus tries to compute the frame id of the new frame. - Frame id computation requires an unwinder, so we go through all unwinder sniffers trying to see if one accepts the new frame (the current frame). - the unwinder's sniffer calls parse_and_eval(). - parse_and_eval depends on the selected frame/block, and if not set yet, the selected frame is set to the current frame. - get_current_frame () is called again. current_frame is still NULL, so ... - recurse forever. In Kevin's test at: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-08/msg00216.html gdb doesn't recurse forever simply because the Python unwinder contains code to detect and stop the recursion itself. However, GDB goes downhill from here, e.g., by showing the sentinel frame as current frame (note the -1): Breakpoint 1, ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23 23 } (gdb) bt #-1 ccc (arg=<unavailable>) at py-recurse-unwind.c:23 Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?) That "-1" frame level comes from this: if (catch_exceptions (current_uiout, unwind_to_current_frame, sentinel_frame, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) != 0) { /* Oops! Fake a current frame? Is this useful? It has a PC of zero, for instance. */ current_frame = sentinel_frame; } which is bogus. It's never correct to set the current frame to the sentinel frame. The only reason this has survived so long is that getting here normally indicates something wrong has already happened before and we fix that. And this case is no exception -- it doesn't really matter how precisely we managed to get to that bogus code (it has to do with the the stash), because anything after recursion happens is going to be invalid. So the fix is to avoid the recursion in the first place. Observations: #1 - The recursion happens because we try to do cycle detection from within get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle. That requires computing the frame id of the frame being unwound, and that itself requires calling into the unwinders. #2 - But, the first time we're unwinding from the sentinel frame, when we reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, there's no frame chain at all yet: - current_frame is NULL. - the frame stash is empty. Thus, there's really no need to do cycle detection the first time we reach get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, when building the current frame. So we can break the recursion by making get_current_frame call a simplified version of get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle that results in setting the current_frame global _before_ computing the current frame's id. But, we can go a little bit further. As there's really no reason anymore to compute the current frame's frame id immediately, we can defer computing it to when some caller of get_current_frame might need it. This was actually how the frame id was computed for all frames before the stash-based cycle detection was added. So in a way, this patch reintroduces the lazy frame id computation, but unlike before, only for the case of the current frame, which turns out to be special. This lazyness, however, requires adjusting gdb.python/py-unwind-maint.exp, because that assumes unwinders are immediately called as side effect of some commands. I didn't see a need to preserve the behavior expected by that test (all it would take is call get_frame_id inside get_current_frame), so I adjusted the test. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-05 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR backtrace/19927 * frame.c (get_frame_id): Compute the frame id if not computed yet.

2016-09-02Handle DW_OP_form_tls_addressTom Tromey1-0/+13
Currently gdb supports DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address, but not DW_OP_form_tls_address. I think it would be better if the toolchain as a whole moved to using the standard opcode, and the prerequisite to this is getting gdb to recognize it. GCC can sometimes emit DW_OP_form_tls_address for emultls targets. As far as I know, nobody has ever tried this with gdb (since it wouldn't work at all). I don't think there's a major drawback to using a single opcode for all targets, because computing the location of a thread-local is already target specific. This is PR gdb/11616. I don't know how to write a test case for this; though it's worth noting that there aren't explicit tests for DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address either -- and if I change GCC, these paths will be tested to the same extent they are now. 2016-09-02 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/11616: * dwarf2read.c (decode_locdesc): Handle DW_OP_form_tls_address. * dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_compile_expr_to_ax): Handle DW_OP_form_tls_address.

2016-09-01Share target_wait prototype between GDB and gdbserverSergio Durigan Junior1-0/+7
This commit moves the target_wait prototype from the GDB-specific target.h header to the common target/target.h header. Then, it creates a compatible implementation of target_wait on gdbserver using the_target->wait, and adjusts the (only) caller (mywait function). Pretty straightforward, no regressions introduced. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: 2016-09-01 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> * target.c (mywait): Call target_wait instead of the_target->wait. (target_wait): New function. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-09-01 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com> * target.c (target_wait): Mention that the function's prototype can be found at target/target.h. * target.h (target_wait): Move prototype from here... * target/target.h (target_wait): ... to here.
