Validate explicit locations with early termination
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.
