I noticed that both gdbserver and gdb define current_directory.
However, as it is referenced by gdbsupport, it seemed better to define
it there as well. This patch also moves the declaration to
pathstuff.h. Tested by rebuilding.

Currently, neither phex nor phex_nz handle sizeof_l==1 -- they let
this case fall through to the default case. However, a subsequent
patch in this series needs this case to work correctly.
I looked at all calls to these functions that pass a 1 for the
sizeof_l parameter. The only such case seems to be correct with this
change.

On some systems, the gnulib configuration will decide to define open
and/or close as macros to replace the POSIX C functions. This
interferes with using those names in C++ class or namespace scopes.
gdbsupport/
* event-pipe.cc (event_pipe::open): Renamed to ...
(event_pipe::open_pipe): ... this.
(event_pipe::close): Renamed to ...
(event_pipe::close_pipe): ... this.
* event-pipe.h (class event_pipe): Updated.
gdb/
* inf-ptrace.h (async_file_open, async_file_close): Updated.
gdbserver/
* gdbserver/linux-low.cc (linux_process_target::async): Likewise.

This commit adds operator+= and operator+ overloads for adding
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char> to a std::string. I could only find 3
places in GDB where this was useful right now, and these all make use
of operator+=.
I've also added a self test for gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr<char>, which
makes use of both operator+= and operator+, so they are both getting
used/tested.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit, except when
running 'maint selftest', where the new self test is visible.

This pulls out the implementation of an event pipe used to implement
target async support in both linux-low.cc (gdbserver) and linux-nat.c
(gdb).
This will be used to replace the existing event pipe in linux-low.cc
and linux-nat.c in future commits.

gdb has some extensions and helpers for working with the libiberty
hash table. This patch consolidates these and moves them to
gdbsupport.

This moves the gdb-specific obstack code -- both extensions like
obconcat and obstack_strdup, and things like auto_obstack -- to
gdbsupport.

This commit aims to not make use of -Wmissing-prototypes when
compiling with g++.
Use of -Wmissing-prototypes was added with this commit:
commit a0761e34f054767de6d6389929d27e9015fb299b
Date: Wed Mar 11 15:15:12 2020 -0400
gdb: enable -Wmissing-prototypes warning
Because clang can provide helpful warnings with this flag.
Unfortunately, g++ doesn't accept this flag, and will give this
warning:
cc1plus: warning: command line option ‘-Wmissing-prototypes’ is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++
In theory the fact that this flag is not supported should be detected
by the configure check in gdbsupport/warning.m4, but for users of
ccache, this check doesn't work due to a long standing ccache issue:
https://github.com/ccache/ccache/issues/738
The ccache problem is that -W... options are reordered on the command
line, and so -Wmissing-prototypes is seen before -Werror. Usually
this doesn't matter, but the above warning (about the flag not being
valid) is issued before the -Werror flag is processed, and so is not
fatal.
There have been two previous attempts to fix this that I'm aware of.
The first is:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-September/182148.html
In this attempt, instead of just relying on a compile to check if a
flag is valid, the proposal was to both compile and link. As linking
doesn't go through ccache, we don't suffer from the argument
reordering problem, and the link phase will correctly fail when using
-Wmissing-prototypes with g++. The configure script will then disable
the use of this flag.
This approach was rejected, and the suggestion was to only add the
-Wmissing-prototypes flag if we are compiling with gcc.
The second attempt, attempts this approach, and can be found here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-November/183076.html
This attempt only adds the -Wmissing-prototypes flag is the value of
GCC is not 'yes'. This feels like it is doing the right thing,
unfortunately, the GCC flag is really a 'is gcc like' flag, not a
strict, is gcc check. As such, GCC is set to 'yes' for clang, which
would mean the flag was not included for clang or gcc. The entire
point of the original commit was to add this flag for clang, so
clearly the second attempt is not sufficient either.
In this new attempt I have added gdbsupport/compiler-type.m4, this
file defines AM_GDB_COMPILER_TYPE. This macro sets the variable
GDB_COMPILER_TYPE to either 'gcc', 'clang', or 'unknown'. In future
the list of values might be extended to cover other compilers, if this
is ever useful.
I've then modified gdbsupport/warning.m4 to only add the problematic
-Wmissing-prototypes flag if GDB_COMPILER_TYPE is not 'gcc'.
I've tested this with both gcc and clang and see the expected results,
gcc no longer attempts to use the -Wmissing-prototypes flag, while
clang continues to use it.
When compiling using ccache, I am no longer seeing the warning.

I had cause to regenerate gdbsupport/Makefile.in, and noticed some
unexpected changes in the copyright header dates.
I suspect that this was caused by the end of year date range update
process.
The Makefile.in contains two date ranges. The first range appears to
be the date range for the version of automake being used, that is the
range runs up to 2017 only, when automake 1.15.1 was released.
The second date range in Makefile.in represents the date range for the
generated file, and so, now runs up to 2022.
Anyway, this is the result of running autoreconf (using automake
1.15.1) in the gdbsupport directory.

I tried building GDB on GNU/Hurd, and ran into this warning:
gdbsupport/scoped_ignore_signal.h:78:16: error: null argument where non-null required (argument 2) [-Werror=nonnull]
This is because in this commit:
commit 99624310dd82542c389c89c2e55d8cae36bb74e1

gdb: fall back on sigpending + sigwait if sigtimedwait is not available
A call to sigwait was introduced that passes nullptr as the second
argument, this call is only reached if sigtimedwait is not supported.
The original patch was written for macOS, I assume on that target
passing nullptr as the second argument is fine.
On my GNU/Linux box, the man-page for sigwait doesn't mention that
nullptr is allowed for the second argument, so my assumption would be
that nullptr is not OK, and, if I change the '#ifdef
HAVE_SIGTIMEDWAIT' introduced by the above patch to '#if 0', and
rebuild on GNU/Linux, I see the same warning that I see on GNU/Hurd.
I propose that we stop passing nullptr as the second argument to
sigwait, and instead pass a valid int pointer. The value returned in
the int can then be used in an assert.
For testing, I (locally) made the change to the #ifdef I mentioned
above, compiled GDB, and ran the usual tests, this meant I was using
sigwait instead on sigtimedwait on GNU/Linux, I saw no regressions.

GDB/GDBserver
Add the --enable-threading configure option so multithreading can be disabled
at configure time. This is useful for statically-linked builds of
GDB/GDBserver, since the thread library doesn't play well with that setup.
If you try to run a statically-linked GDB built with threading, it will crash
when setting up the number of worker threads.
This new option is also convenient when debugging GDB in a system with lots of
threads, where the thread discovery code in GDB will emit too many messages,
like so:
[New Thread 0xfffff74d3a50 (LWP 2625599)]
If you have X threads, that message will be repeated X times.
The default for --enable-threading is "yes".

This reverts commit fe72c32765e1190c8a17d309fc3a7e1882d6a430.
It turns out it was wrong, libinproctrace.so does build its own

there. As far as I know, IN_PROCESS_AGENT will never be defined when

ASan made me notice a memory leak, where the memory tied to the file
handle name string wasn't freed. When register a file handler with an
fd that is already registered, we re-use the file_handler object, so we
ended up creating a new std::string object and overwriting the
file_handler::name pointer, without free-ing the old std::string.
Fix this by allocating file_handler with new, deleting it with
delete, and making file_handler::name not a pointer.

An assertion was recently added to array_view::operator[] to ensure we
don't do out of bounds accesses. However, when the array_view is copied
to or from using memcpy, it bypasses that safety.
To address this, add a `copy` free function that copies data from an
array view to another, ensuring that the destination and source array
views have the same size. When copying to or from parts of an
array_view, we are expected to use gdb::array_view::slice, which does
its own bounds check. With all that, any copy operation that goes out
of bounds should be caught by an assertion at runtime.
copy is implemented using std::copy and std::copy_backward, which, at
least on libstdc++, appears to pick memmove when copying trivial data.
So in the end there shouldn't be much difference vs using a bare memcpy,
as we do right now. When copying non-trivial data, std::copy and
std::copy_backward assigns each element in a loop.
To properly support overlapping ranges, we must use std::copy or
std::copy_backward, depending on whether the destination is before the
source or vice-versa. std::copy and std::copy_backward don't support
copying exactly overlapping ranges (where the source range is equal to
the destination range). But in this case, no copy is needed anyway, so
we do nothing.
The order of parameters of the new copy function is based on std::copy
and std::copy_backward, where the source comes before the destination.
Change a few randomly selected spots to use the new function, to show
how it can be used.
Add a test for the new function, testing both with arrays of a trivial
type (int) and of a non-trivial type (foo). Test non-overlapping
ranges as well as three kinds of overlapping ranges: source before dest,
dest before source, and dest == source.

I would like to print target_waitkind values in debug messages, so I
think that a target_waitkind-to-string function would be useful. While
at it, use it in target_waitstatus::to_string. This changes the output
of target_waitstatus::to_string a bit, but I think it is for the better.
The debug messages will show a string matching exactly the
target_waitkind enumerator (minus the TARGET_WAITKIND prefix).
As a convenience, make string_appendf return the same reference to
string it got as a parameter. This allows doing this:
return string_appendf (str, "foo");
... keeping the code concise.

This is because constexpr functions in c++11 can only consist of a
single return statement, so we can't have the gdb_assert in there. Make
the gdb_assert presence conditional to the __cplusplus version, to
enable it only for c++14 and later.

Change gdb_assert_not_reached to accept a format string plus
corresponding arguments. This allows giving more precise messages.
Because the format string passed by the caller is prepended with a "%s:"
to add the function name, the callers can no longer pass a translated
string (`_(...)`). Make the gdb_assert_not_reached include the _(),
just like the gdb_assert_fail macro just above.

__func__ is standard C++11:
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/function
Also, in C++11, __func__ expands to the demangled function name, so the
mention in the comment above FUNCTION_NAME doesn't apply anymore.
Finally, in places where FUNCTION_NAME is used, I think it's enough to
print the function name, no need to print the whole signature.
Therefore, I propose to just remove FUNCTION_NAME and update users to
use the standard __func__.

In the next commit I'd like to reference gdb_unique_ptr within the
common-utils.h file. However, this requires that I include
gdb_unique_ptr.h, which requires that xfree be defined.
Interestingly, gdb_unique_ptr.h doesn't actually include anything that
defines xfree, but I was finding that when I added a gdb_unique_ptr.h
include to common-utils.h I was getting a dependency cycle; before my
change xfree was defined when gdb_unique_ptr.h was processed, while
after my change it was not, and this made g++ unhappy.
To break this cycle, I propose to move xfree into its own header file,
gdb-xfree.h, which I'll then include into gdb_unique_ptr.h and
common-utils.cc.

The rhES5 build failed due to an upstream import a while back. The
bug here is that, while the 'personality' function exists,
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE is only defined in <linux/personality.h>, not
<sys/personality.h>.
However, <linux/personality.h> does not declare the 'personality'
function, and <sys/personality.h> and <linux/personality.h> cannot
both be included.
This patch restores one of the removed configure checks and updates
the code to check it.
We had this as a local patch at AdaCore, because it seemed like there
was no interest upstream. However, now it turns out that this fixes
PR build/28555, so I'm sending it now.

While reading the interface of gdb::array_view, I realized that the
constructor that builds an array_view on top of a contiguous container
(such as std::vector, std::array or even gdb::array_view) can be
missused.
Lets consider the following code sample:
struct Parent
{
Parent (int a): a { a } {}
int a;
};
std::ostream &operator<< (std::ostream& os, const Parent & p)
{ os << "Parent {a=" << p.a << "}"; return os; }
struct Child : public Parent
{
Child (int a, int b): Parent { a }, b { b } {}
int b;
};
std::ostream &operator<< (std::ostream& os, const Child & p)
{ os << "Child {a=" << p.a << ", b=" << p.b << "}"; return os; }
template <typename T>
void print (const gdb::array_view<const T> &p)
{
std::for_each (p.begin (), p.end (), [](const T &p) { std::cout << p << '\n'; });
}
Then with the current interface nothinng prevents this usage of
array_view to be done:
const std::array<Child, 3> elts = {
Child {1, 2},
Child {3, 4},
Child {5, 6}
};
print_all<Parent> (elts);
This compiles fine and produces the following output:
Parent {a=1}
Parent {a=2}
Parent {a=3}
which is obviously wrong. There is nowhere in memory a Parent-like
object for which the A member is 2 and this call to print_all<Parent>
shold not compile at all (calling print_all<Child> is however fine).
This comes down to the fact that a Child* is convertible into a Parent*,
and that an array view is constructed to a pointer to the first element
and a size. The valid type pointed to that can be used with this
constructor are restricted using SFINAE, which requires that a
pointer to a member into the underlying container can be converted into a
pointer the array_view's data type.
This patch proposes to change the constraints on the gdb::array_view
ctor which accepts a container now requires that the (decayed) type of
the elements in the container match the (decayed) type of the array_view
being constructed.
Applying this change required minimum adjustment in GDB codebase, which
are also included in this patch.
Tested by rebuilding.

Despite the code called properly operator new[] and operator delete[].
But GDB's new-op.cc provides its own operator new[] which gets translated into

translate also operators delete[] Address Sanitizer gets confused.
The question is how many variants of the delete operator need to be provided.
There could be 14 operators new but there are only 4, GDB uses 3 of them.
There could be 16 operators delete but there are only 6, GDB uses 2 of them.
It depends on libraries and compiler which of the operators will get used.
Currently being used:
U operator new[](unsigned long)
U operator new(unsigned long)
U operator new(unsigned long, std::nothrow_t const&)
U operator delete[](void*)
U operator delete(void*, unsigned long)

After the previous commit, it is easy to add completion for selftest
names. Again, this is not particularly high value, but I rarely touched
completion, so it served as a simple example to get some practice.
Change the for_each_selftest_ftype parameter to gdb::function_view, so
that we can pass a lambda that captures things.

The format_pieces selftest currently fails on Windows hosts.
The selftest doesn't handle the "%ll" -> "%I64" rewrite that the
formatter may perform, but also gdbsupport was missing a configure
check for PRINTF_HAS_LONG_LONG. This patch fixes both issues.
|

Now that there is a register_test variant that accepts std::function,
it seems to me that the 'selftest' struct and accompanying code is
obsolete -- simply always using std::function is simpler. This patch
implements this idea.

Say we use a gcc version that (while supporting c++11) does not support c++11
by default, and needs an -std setting to enable it.
If gdb would use the default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive, then
we'd have:
...
CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11"
...
That mechanism however has the following problem (quoting from commit
0bcda685399):
...
the top level Makefile passes CXX down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever
gdb/Makefile may set CXX to. The result would be that a make invocation from
the build/gdb/ directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a
make invocation at the top level would not.
...
Commit 0bcda685399 fixes this by using a custom AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX which
does:
...
CXX=g++
CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11
...
The problem reported in PR28318 is that using the custom instead of the
default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX makes the configure test for std::thread
support fail.
We could simply add $CXX_DIALECT to the test for std::thread support, but
that would have to be repeated for each added c++ support test.
Instead, fix this by doing:
...
CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11"
CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11
...
This is somewhat awkward, since it results in -std=gnu++11 occuring twice in
some situations:
...
$ touch src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c
$ ( cd build/gdb; make V=1 dwarf2/read.o )
g++-4.8 -std=gnu++11 -x c++ -std=gnu++11 ...
...
However, both settings are needed:
- the switch in CXX for the std::thread tests (and other tests)
- the switch in CXX_DIALECT so it can be appended in Makefiles, to
counteract the fact that the top-level Makefile overrides CXX
The code added in gdb/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 is copied from the default
AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

In the gdbsupport configure.ac file, there is an attempt to define
TARGET_WORD_SIZE. This is done by running grep on the file
../bfd/bfd-in3.h.
The problem with this is, the file bfd-in3.h is generated into the bfd
build directory when bfd is configured, and there is no dependency
between the gdbsupport module and the bfd module, so, for example, if
I do:
$ ../src/configure
$ make all-gdbsupport
Then bfd will neither be configured, or built. In this case
TARGET_WORD_SIZE ends up being defined, but with no value because the
grep on bfd-in3.h fails.
However, it turns out that this doesn't matter; we don't actually use
TARGET_WORD_SIZE anywhere.
My proposal in this commit is to just remove the definition of
TARGET_WORD_SIZE, the alternative would be to add a dependency between
configure-gdbsupport and configure-bfd into Makefile.def, but adding a
dependency for something we don't need seems pretty pointless.

This encourages the callers to use automatic file descriptor management.

Make gdb_open_cloexec return a scoped_fd, to encourage using automatic
management of the file descriptor closing. Except in the most trivial
cases, I changed the callers to just release the fd, which retains their
existing behavior. That will allow the transition to using scoped_fd
more to go gradually, one caller at a time.

The following patches wants to change gdb_fopen_cloexec and
gdb_mkostemp_cloexec to return a scoped_fd. Doing this causes a cyclic
include between scoped_fd.h and filestuff.h, that both want to include
each other. scoped_fd.h includes filestuff.h because of the
scoped_fd::to_file method's return value. filestuff.h would then
include scoped_fd.h for gdb_fopen_cloexec's and gdb_mkostemp_cloexec's
return values.
To fix that, move gdb_file_up to its own file, gdb_file.h.

The ptid_t 'tid' member is normally used as an address in gdb -- both
bsd-uthread and ravenscar-thread use it this way. However, because
the type is 'long', this can cause problems with sign extension.
This patch changes the type to ULONGEST to ensure that sign extension
does not occur.
|
|
I wanted to find, and potentially modify, all the spots where the
'tid' parameter to the ptid_t constructor was used. So, I temporarily
removed this parameter and then rebuilt.
In order to make it simpler to search through the "real" (nonzero)
uses of this parameter, something I knew I'd have to do multiple
times, I removed any ", 0" from constructor calls.

The print_one_insn selftest in gdb/disasm-selftests.c contains:
...
/* If you want to see the disassembled instruction printed to gdb_stdout,
set verbose to true. */
static const bool verbose = false;
...
Make this parameter available in the maint selftest command using a new option
-verbose, such that we can do:
...
(gdb) maint selftest -verbose print_one_insn
...
Tested on x86_64-linux.

Change register_test to use std::function arg, such that we can do:
...
register_test (test_name, [=] () { SELF_CHECK (...); });

Bug 28341 shows that GDB fails to compile when built with -std=c++11.
I don't know much about the use case, but according to the author of the
bug:
I encountered the scenario where CXX is set to "g++ -std=c++11" when
I try to compile binutils under GCC as part of the GCC 3-stage
compilation, which is common for building a cross-compiler.
The author of the bug suggests using __typeof__ instead of typeof. But
since we're using C++, we might as well use decltype, which is standard.
This is what this patch does.
The failure (and fix) can be observed by configuring GDB with CXX="g++
-std=c++11":
CXX linux-low.o

The libstdc++ version of optional contains some runtime checks enabled
when _GLIBCXX_DEBUG is defined. I think it would be useful if our
version contained similar checks.
Add checks in the two `get` methods, also conditional on _GLIBCXX_DEBUG.
I think it's simpler to use that macro rather than introducing a new
GDB-specific one, as I think that if somebody is interested in enabling
these runtime checks, they'll also be interested in enabling the
libstdc++ runtime checks (and vice-versa).
I implemented these checks using gdb_assert. Note that gdb_assert
throws (after querying the user), and we are in noexcept methods. That
means that std::terminate / abort will immediately be called. I think
this is ok, since if those were "real" _GLIBCXX_DEBUG checks, abort
would be called straight away.
If I add a dummy failure, it looks like so:
$ ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory
/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/../gdbsupport/gdb_optional.h:206: internal-error: T& gdb::optional<T>::get() [with T = int]: Assertion `this->has_value ()' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) n
[1] 658767 abort (core dumped) ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory

I noticed that exception_print_same is only used in a single spot, and
it seemed to be better as an operator!= method attached to
gdb_exception.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.

With trunk gcc (12.0) we're running into a -Werror=nonnull-compare build
breaker in gdb, which caused a broader review of the usage of the nonnull
attribute.
The current conclusion is that it's best to disable this. This is explained
at length in the gdbsupport/common-defs.h comment.
Tested by building with trunk gcc.

commit f069ea46a03ae868581d1c852da28e979ea1245a
Date: Sat Jul 3 16:29:08 2021 -0700
Rename gdb/ChangeLog to gdb/ChangeLog-2021
The gdb/ChangeLog file was renamed, but all of the other ChangeLog
files relating to gdb were left in place.
As I understand things, the no ChangeLogs policy applies to all the
GDB related directories, so this commit renames all of the remaining
GDB related ChangeLog files.
As with the original commit, the intention behind this commit is to
hopefully stop people merging ChangeLog entries by mistake.
The renames carried out in this commit are:
gdb/doc/ChangeLog -> gdb/doc/ChangeLog-1991-2021
gdb/stubs/ChangeLog -> gdb/stubs/ChangeLog-2012-2020
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog -> gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog-2014-2021
gdbserver/ChangeLog -> gdbserver/ChangeLog-2002-2021
gdbsupport/ChangeLog -> gdbsupport/ChangeLog-2020-2021
