2019-10-03gdb: Don't ignore all SIGSTOP when the signal handler is set to passAndrew Burgess5-1/+140
It was observed that in a multi-threaded application on GNU/Linux, that if the user has set the SIGSTOP to be pass (using GDB's handle command) then the inferior would hang upon hitting a breakpoint. What happens is that when a thread hits the breakpoint GDB tries to stop all of the other threads by sending them a SIGSTOP and setting the stop_requested flag in the target_ops structure - this can be seen in infrun.c:stop_all_threads. GDB then waits for all of the other threads to stop. When the SIGSTOP event arrives we eventually end up in linux-nat.c:linux_nat_filter_event, which has the job of deciding if the event we're looking at (the SIGSTOP arriving in this case) is something that should be reported back to the core of GDB. One of the final actions of this function is to check if we stopped due to a signal, and if we did, and the signal has been set to 'pass' by the user then we ignore the event and resume the thread. This code already has some conditions in place that mean the event is reported to GDB even if the signal is in the set of signals to be passed to the inferior. In this commit I extend this condition such that: If the signal is a SIGSTOP, and the thread's stop_requested flag is set (indicating we're waiting for the thread to stop with a SIGSTOP) then we should report this SIGSTOP to GDB and not pass it to the inferior. With this change in place the test now passes. Regression tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions. gdb/ChangeLog: * linux-nat.c (linux_nat_filter_event): Don't ignore SIGSTOP if we have just sent the thread a SIGSTOP and are waiting for it to arrive. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.threads/stop-with-handle.c: New file. * gdb.threads/stop-with-handle.exp: New file.

2019-10-03[gdb/testsuite] Fix info-types.exp with gcc/g++ 4.8Tom de Vries2-4/+10
The gdb.base/info-types.exp test-case FAILs with gcc/g++ 4.8 because the DWARF record for the 'unsigned int' type is missing in the executables, while it is present for gcc/g++ 7.4.1. For a minimal example using gcc 7.4.1: ... $ echo "enum enum_t { AA, BB, CC }; enum enum_t var;" > enum.c $ gcc enum.c -c -g ... we find that the enum type has DW_AT_encoding 'unsigned': <1><1d>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_enumeration_type) <1e> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x1f): enum_t <22> DW_AT_encoding : 7 (unsigned) <23> DW_AT_byte_size : 4 <24> DW_AT_type : <0x3e> <28> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <29> DW_AT_decl_line : 1 <2a> DW_AT_sibling : <0x3e> ... and a DW_AT_type reference to the type 'unsigned int': ... <1><3e>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_base_type) <3f> DW_AT_byte_size : 4 <40> DW_AT_encoding : 7 (unsigned) <41> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x26): unsigned int ...

2019-10-02gdb/testsuite: Fix py-format-string.exp on big-endian platformsAndreas Arnez3-5/+18
GDB's py-format-string test case depends on endianness. In particular it relies on the first byte of the machine representation of 42 (as an int) to be 42 as well. While this is indeed the case for little-endian machines, big-endian machines store a zero in the first byte instead. The wrong assumption leads to lots of FAILs on such architectures. Fix this by filling the affected union with bytes of the same value, such that endianness does not matter. Use the value 42, to keep the character in the first byte unchanged. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.python/py-format-string.c (string.h): New include. (main): Fill a_struct_with_union.the_union.an_int with bytes of the same value, for endianness-independence. * gdb.python/py-format-string.exp (default_regexp_dict) (test_pretty_structs, test_format): Adjust expected output to the changed initialization.
2019-10-02Add $_ada_exception convenience variableTom Tromey7-232/+142
This adds the $_ada_exception convenience variable. It is set by the Ada exception catchpoints, and holds the address of the exception currently being thrown. This is useful because it allows more fine-grained filtering of exceptions than is possible using the existing "catch" syntax. This also simplifies Ada catchpoints somewhat; because the catchpoint must now carry the "kind", it's possible to remove many helper functions. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-02 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * NEWS: Add $_ada_exception entry. * ada-lang.c (struct ada_catchpoint): Add constructor. <m_kind>: New member.

2019-10-02Handle copy relocationsTom Tromey11-32/+208
In ELF, if a data symbol is defined in a shared library and used by the main program, it will be subject to a "copy relocation". In this scenario, the main program has a copy of the symbol in question, and a relocation that tells ld.so to copy the data from the shared library. Then the symbol in the main program is used to satisfy all references. This patch changes gdb to handle this scenario. Data symbols coming from ELF shared libraries get a special flag that indicates that the symbol's address may be subject to copy relocation. I looked briefly into handling copy relocations by looking at the actual relocations in the main program, but this seemed difficult to do with BFD. Note that no caching is done here. Perhaps this could be changed if need be; I wanted to avoid possible problems with either objfile lifetimes and changes, or conflicts with the long-term (vapor-ware) objfile splitting project. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-02 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * symmisc.c (dump_msymbols): Don't use MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS. * ada-lang.c (lesseq_defined_than): Handle LOC_STATIC. * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_per_objfile): Add can_copy parameter.

Replace a VEC with a std::vector in btrace.h, and update btrace.c to match. It is worth noting that this code appears to be currently untested by the GDB testsuite. I've tried to do a like for like replacement when moving to std::vector, with minimal refactoring to try and avoid introducing any bugs. As the new vector is inside a union I've currently used a pointer to vector, which makes the code slightly uglier than it might otherwise be, but again, due to lack of testing I'm reluctant to start refactoring the code in a big way. gdb/ChangeLog: * btrace.c (btrace_maint_clear): Update to handle change from VEC to std::vector.

Converts a VEC into a std::vector in gdbsupport/btrace-common.h. This commit just performs a mechanical conversion and doesn't do any refactoring. One consequence of this is that the std::vector must actually be a pointer to std::vector as it is placed within a union. It might be possible in future to refactor to a class hierarchy and remove the need for a union, but I'd rather have that be a separate change to make it easier to see the evolution of the code. gdb/ChangeLog: * btrace.c (btrace_compute_ftrace_bts): Update for std::vector, make accesses into the vector constant references.

2019-10-01Introduce metadata styleTom Tromey43-127/+331
This introduces a new "metadata" style and changes many places in gdb to use it. The idea here is to let the user distinguish gdb output from output that (conceptually at least) comes directly from the inferior. The newly-styled category includes text that gdb traditionally surrounds in "<...>", like "<unavailable>". I only added a single test for this. In many cases this output is difficult to test. Also, while developing this errors in the implementation of the new printf formats showed up as regressions. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * p-lang.c (pascal_printstr): Use metadata style. * value.c (show_convenience): Use metadata style. * valprint.c (valprint_check_validity, val_print_optimized_out) (val_print_not_saved, val_print_unavailable) (val_print_invalid_address, generic_val_print, val_print) (value_check_printable, val_print_array_elements): Use metadata style. * ui-out.h (class ui_out) <field_fmt>: New overload. <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * ui-out.c (ui_out::field_fmt): New overload. * typeprint.c (type_print_unknown_return_type) (val_print_not_allocated, val_print_not_associated): Use metadata style. * tui/tui-out.h (class tui_ui_out) <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * tui/tui-out.c (tui_ui_out::do_field_fmt): Update. * tracepoint.c (tvariables_info_1): Use metadata style. * stack.c (print_frame_arg, print_frame_info, print_frame) (info_frame_command_core): Use metadata style. * skip.c (info_skip_command): Use metadata style. * rust-lang.c (rust_print_enum): Use metadata style. * python/py-prettyprint.c (print_stack_unless_memory_error): Use metadata style. * python/py-framefilter.c (py_print_single_arg): Use metadata style. * printcmd.c (do_one_display, print_variable_and_value): Use metadata style. * p-valprint.c (pascal_val_print) (pascal_object_print_value_fields): Use metadata style. * p-typeprint.c (pascal_type_print_base): Use metadata style. * mi/mi-out.h (class mi_ui_out) <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * mi/mi-out.c (mi_ui_out::do_field_fmt): Update. * m2-valprint.c (m2_print_long_set): Use metadata style. * m2-typeprint.c (m2_print_type): Use metadata style. * infcmd.c (print_return_value_1): Use metadata style. * gnu-v3-abi.c (print_one_vtable): Use metadata style. * f-valprint.c (info_common_command_for_block): Use metadata style. * f-typeprint.c (f_type_print_base): Use metadata style. * expprint.c (print_subexp_standard): Use metadata style. * cp-valprint.c (cp_print_value_fields): Use metadata style. * cli/cli-style.h (class cli_style_option): Add constructor.

2019-10-01Introduce gdb-specific %p format suffixesPedro Alves15-107/+646
This introduces a few gdb-specific %p format suffixes. This is useful for emitting gdb-specific output in an ergonomic way. It also yields code that is more i18n-friendly. The comment before ui_out::message explains the details. Note that the tests had to change a little. When using one of the gdb printf functions with styling, there can be spurious style changes emitted to the output. This did not seem worthwhile to fix, as the low-level output functions are rather spaghetti-ish already, and I didn't want to make them even worse. This change also necessitated adding support for "*" as precision and width in format_pieces. These are used in various spots in gdb, and it seemed better to me to implement them than to remove the uses. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * unittests/format_pieces-selftests.c: Add gdb_format parameter.

2019-10-01gdb/testsuite: Fix pretty-print.exp on big-endian platformsAndreas Arnez3-7/+18
The pretty-print test case fails on s390/s390x because it relies on a little-endian representation of bit fields. Little-endian architectures typically allocate bit fields from least to most significant bit, but big-endian architectures typically use the reverse order, allocating the most significant bit first. Thus the two bit fields in each of the test case's unions overlap either in their lower or in their higher bits, depending on the target's endianness: union { int three : 3; int four : 4; }; Now, when initializing 'three' with 3, 'four' will become 3 on little endian targets, but 6 on big-endian targets, making it FAIL there. Fix this by initializing the longer bit field instead and using an all-ones bit pattern. In this way the result does not depend on endianness. Use 'unsigned' instead of int for one of the bit fields in each of the unions, to increase the variety of resulting values. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/pretty-print.c (struct s1_t): Change fields 'three' and 'six' to unsigned. (s1): Initialize fields 'four' and 'six' instead of 'three' and 'five'. Use an all-ones bit pattern for each. * gdb.base/pretty-print.exp: Adjust expected output of "print s1" to its changed values.

2019-09-26Revert "Improve ptrace-error detection on Linux targets"Sergio Durigan Junior16-487/+31
This reverts commit 381beca6146ac68b57edf47d28cdb335fbd11635. The patch hasn't been fully reviewed yet, and Pedro would like to see more fixes.
2019-09-26Improve ptrace-error detection on Linux targetsSergio Durigan Junior16-31/+487
In Fedora GDB, we carry the following patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdb/blob/8ac06474ff1e2aa4920d14e0666b083eeaca8952/f/gdb-attach-fail-reasons-5of5.patch Its purpose is to try to detect a specific scenario where SELinux's 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled, which prevents GDB from ptrace'ing in order to debug the inferior (PTRACE_ATTACH and PTRACE_TRACEME will fail with EACCES in this case). I like the idea of improving error detection and providing more information to the user (a simple "Permission denied" can be really frustrating), but I don't fully agree with the way the patch was implemented: it makes GDB link against libselinux only for the sake of consulting the 'deny_ptrace' setting, and then prints a warning if ptrace failed and this setting is on. My first thought (and attempt) was to make GDB print a generic warning when a ptrace error happened; this message would just point the user to our documentation, where she could find more information about possible causes for the error (and try to diagnose/fix the problem). This proved to be too simple, and I was convinced that it is actually a good idea to go the extra kilometre and try to pinpoint the specific problem (or problems) preventing ptrace from working, as well as provide useful suggestions on how the user can fix things. Here is the patch I came up with. It implements a new function, 'linux_ptrace_restricted_fail_reason', which does a few things to check what's wrong with ptrace: - It dlopen's "libselinux.so.1" and checks if the "deny_ptrace" option is enabled. - It reads the contents of "/proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope" and checks if it's different than 0. For each of these checks, if it succeeds, the user will see a message informing about the restriction in place, and how it can be disabled. For example, if "deny_ptrace" is enabled, the user will see: # gdb /usr/bin/true ... Starting program: /usr/bin/true warning: Could not trace the inferior process. warning: ptrace: Permission denied The SELinux 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled and preventing GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): setsebool deny_ptrace off If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). During startup program exited with code 127. (gdb) In case "/proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope" is > 0: # gdb /usr/bin/true ... Starting program: /usr/bin/true warning: Could not trace the inferior process. warning: ptrace: Operation not permitted The Linux kernel's Yama ptrace scope is in effect, which can prevent GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). During startup program exited with code 127. (gdb) If both restrictions are enabled, both messages will show up. This works for gdbserver as well, and actually fixes a latent bug I found: when ptrace is restricted, gdbserver would hang due to an unchecked ptrace call: # gdbserver :9988 /usr/bin/true gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: Cannot PTRACE_TRACEME: Operation not permitted gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: status 256 is not WIFSTOPPED! gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: failed to kill child pid 2668100 No such process [ Here you would have to issue a C-c ] Now, you will see: # gdbserver :9988 /usr/bin/true gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: Cannot PTRACE_TRACEME: Permission denied gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: status 256 is not WIFSTOPPED! gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: failed to kill child pid 2766868 No such process gdbserver: Could not trace the inferior process. gdbserver: ptrace: Permission denied The SELinux 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled and preventing GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): setsebool deny_ptrace off If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). # (I decided to keep all the other messages, even though I find them a bit distracting). If GDB can't determine the cause for the failure, it will still print the generic error message which tells the user to check our documentation: There might be restrictions preventing ptrace from working. Please see the appendix "Linux kernel ptrace restrictions" in the GDB documentation for more details. If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). This means that the patch expands our documentation and creates a new appendix section named "Linux kernel ptrace restrictions", with sub-sections for each possible restriction that might be in place. Notice how, on every message, we instruct the user to "do the right thing" if gdbserver is being used. This is because if the user started gdbserver *before* any ptrace restriction was in place, and then, for some reason, one or more restrictions get enabled, then the error message will be displayed both on gdbserver *and* on the connected GDB. Since the user will be piloting GDB, it's important to explicitly say that the ptrace restrictions are enabled in the target, where gdbserver is running. The current list of possible restrictions is: - SELinux's 'deny_ptrace' option (detected). - YAMA's /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope setting (detected). - seccomp on Docker containers (I couldn't find how to detect). It's important to mention that all of this is Linux-specific; as far as I know, SELinux, YAMA and seccomp are Linux-only features. I tested this patch locally, on my Fedora 30 machine (actually, a Fedora Rawhide VM), but I'm not proposing a testcase for it because of the difficulty of writing one.

2019-09-26Do not expose stub types to PythonTom Tromey7-0/+132
dwarf2read.c will create stub types for Ada "Taft Amendment" types. These stub types can currently be exposed to Python code, where they show up as TYPE_CODE_VOID types (but that, mysteriously, can sometimes be used in other ways). While it's possible to work with such types by using strip_typedefs, this seemed unpleasant to me. This patch takes another approach instead, which is to try not to expose stub types to Python users. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-09-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * python/py-type.c (type_to_type_object): Call check_typedef for stub types. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2019-09-26 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * gdb.ada/py_taft.exp: New file. * gdb.ada/py_taft/main.adb: New file. * gdb.ada/py_taft/pkg.adb: New file. * gdb.ada/py_taft/pkg.ads: New file.

initialize_utils only registers some commands, so it isn't necessary to run it at any particular time during startup. This patch removes it and merges its contents into _initialize_utils.

2019-09-24[gdb/tdep] Handle mxcsr kernel bug on Intel Skylake CPUsTom de Vries4-2/+34
On my openSUSE Leap 15.1 x86_64 Skylake system with the default (4.12) kernel, I run into: ... FAIL: gdb.base/gcore.exp: corefile restored all registers ... The problem is that there's a difference in the mxcsr register value before and after the gcore command: ... - mxcsr 0x0 [ ] + mxcsr 0x400440 [ DAZ OM ] ... This can be traced back to amd64_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers, where xstateregs is partially initialized by the ptrace call: ... char xstateregs[X86_XSTATE_MAX_SIZE]; struct iovec iov; amd64_collect_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs, 0); iov.iov_base = xstateregs; iov.iov_len = sizeof (xstateregs); if (ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGSET, tid, (unsigned int) NT_X86_XSTATE, (long) &iov) < 0) perror_with_name (_("Couldn't get extended state status")); amd64_supply_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs); ... after which amd64_supply_xsave is called. The amd64_supply_xsave call is supposed to only use initialized parts of xstateregs, but due to a kernel bug on intel skylake (fixed from 4.14 onwards by commit 0852b374173b "x86/fpu: Add FPU state copying quirk to handle XRSTOR failure on Intel Skylake CPUs") it can happen that the mxcsr part of xstateregs is not initialized, while amd64_supply_xsave expects it to be initialized, which explains the FAIL mentioned above. Fix the undetermined behaviour by initializing xstateregs before calling ptrace, which makes sure we get a 0x0 for mxcsr when this kernel bug occurs, and which also happens to fix the FAIL. Furthermore, add an xfail for this FAIL which triggers the same kernel bug: ... FAIL: gdb.arch/amd64-init-x87-values.exp: check_setting_mxcsr_before_enable: \ check new value of MXCSR is still in place ... Both FAILs pass when using a 5.3 kernel instead on the system mentioned above.
