gdb: avoid double stop after failed breakpoint condition check
This commit replaces this earlier commit: commit 2e411b8c68eb2b035b31d5b00d940d4be1a0928b Date: Fri Oct 14 14:53:15 2022 +0100 gdb: don't always print breakpoint location after failed condition check and is a result of feedback received here[1]. The original commit addressed a problem where, if a breakpoint condition included an inferior function call, and if the inferior function call failed, then GDB would announce the stop twice. Here's an example of GDB's output before the above commit that shows the problem being addressed: (gdb) break foo if (some_func ()) Breakpoint 1 at 0x40111e: file bpcond.c, line 11. (gdb) r Starting program: /tmp/bpcond Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0000000000401116 in some_func () at bpcond.c:5 5 return *p; Error in testing condition for breakpoint 1: The program being debugged stopped while in a function called from GDB. Evaluation of the expression containing the function (some_func) will be abandoned. When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop. Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000401116 in some_func () at bpcond.c:5 5 return *p; (gdb) The original commit addressed this issue in breakpoint.c, by spotting that the $pc had changed while evaluating the breakpoint condition, and inferring from this that GDB must have stopped elsewhere. However, the way in which the original commit suppressed the second stop announcement was to set bpstat::print to true -- this tells GDB not to print the frame during the stop announcement, and for the CLI this is fine, however, it was pointed out that for the MI this still isn't really enough. Below is an example from an MI session after the above commit was applied, this shows the problem with the above commit: -break-insert -c "cond_fail()" foo ^done,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",addr="0x000000000040111e",func="foo",file="/tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c",line="30",thread-groups=["i1"],cond="cond_fail()",times="0",original-location="foo"} (gdb) -exec-run =thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="2636270" =thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1" =library-loaded,id="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",target-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",host-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",symbols-loaded="0",thread-group="i1",ranges=[{from="0x00007ffff7fd3110",to="0x00007ffff7ff2bb4"}] ^running *running,thread-id="all" (gdb) =library-loaded,id="/lib64/libm.so.6",target-name="/lib64/libm.so.6",host-name="/lib64/libm.so.6",symbols-loaded="0",thread-group="i1",ranges=[{from="0x00007ffff7e59390",to="0x00007ffff7ef4f98"}] =library-loaded,id="/lib64/libc.so.6",target-name="/lib64/libc.so.6",host-name="/lib64/libc.so.6",symbols-loaded="0",thread-group="i1",ranges=[{from="0x00007ffff7ca66b0",to="0x00007ffff7df3c5f"}] ~"\nProgram" ~" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.\n" ~"0x0000000000401116 in cond_fail () at /tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c:24\n" ~"24\t return *p;\t\t\t/* Crash here. */\n" *stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV",signal-meaning="Segmentation fault",frame={addr="0x0000000000401116",func="cond_fail",args=[],file="/tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c",fullname="/tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c",line="24",arch="i386:x86-64"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="9" &"Error in testing condition for breakpoint 1:\n" &"The program being debugged was signaled while in a function called from GDB.\n" &"GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received.\n" &"To change this behavior use \"set unwindonsignal on\".\n" &"Evaluation of the expression containing the function\n" &"(cond_fail) will be abandoned.\n" &"When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.\n" =breakpoint-modified,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",addr="0x000000000040111e",func="foo",file="/tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c",fullname="/tmp/mi-condbreak-fail.c",line="30",thread-groups=["i1"],cond="cond_fail()",times="1",original-location="foo"} *stopped (gdb) Notice that we still see two '*stopped' lines, the first includes the full frame information, while the second has no frame information, this is a result of bpstat::print having been set. Ideally, the second '*stopped' line should not be present. By setting bpstat::print I was addressing the problem too late, this flag really only changes how interp::on_normal_stop prints the stop event, and interp::on_normal_stop is called (indirectly) from the normal_stop function in infrun.c. A better solution is to avoid calling normal_stop at all for the stops which should not be reported to the user, and this is what I do in this commit. This commit has 3 parts: 1. In breakpoint.c, revert the above commit, 2. In fetch_inferior_event (infrun.c), capture the stop-id before calling handle_inferior_event. If, after calling handle_inferior_event, the stop-id has changed, then this indicates that somewhere within handle_inferior_event, a stop was announced to the user. If this is the case then GDB should not call normal_stop, and we should rely on whoever announced the stop to ensure that we are in a PROMPT_NEEDED state, which means the prompt will be displayed once fetch_inferior_event returns. And, 3. In infcall.c, do two things: (a) In run_inferior_call, after making the inferior call, ensure that either async_disable_stdin or async_enable_stdin is called to put the prompt state, and stdin handling into the correct state based on whether the inferior call completed successfully or not, and (b) In call_thread_fsm::should_stop, call async_enable_stdin rather than changing the prompt state directly. This isn't strictly necessary, but helped me understand this code more. This async_enable_stdin call is only reached if normal_stop is not going to be called, and replaces the async_enable_stdin call that exists in normal_stop. Though we could just adjust the prompt state if felt (to me) much easier to understand when I could see this call and the corresponding call in normal_stop. With these changes in place now, when the inferior call (from the breakpoint condition) fails, infcall.c leaves the prompt state as PROMPT_NEEDED, and leaves stdin registered with the event loop. Back in fetch_inferior_event GDB notices that the stop-id has changed and so avoids calling normal_stop. And on return from fetch_inferior_event GDB will display the prompt and handle input from stdin. As normal_stop is not called the MI problem is solved, and the test added in the earlier mentioned commit still passes just fine, so the CLI has not regressed.
