2021-10-03gdb: make string-like set show commands use std::string variableSimon Marchi1-2/+2
String-like settings (var_string, var_filename, var_optional_filename, var_string_noescape) currently take a pointer to a `char *` storage variable (typically global) that holds the setting's value. I'd like to "mordernize" this by changing them to use an std::string for storage. An obvious reason is that string operations on std::string are often easier to write than with C strings. And they avoid having to do any manual memory management. Another interesting reason is that, with `char *`, nullptr and an empty string often both have the same meaning of "no value". String settings are initially nullptr (unless initialized otherwise). But when doing "set foo" (where `foo` is a string setting), the setting now points to an empty string. For example, solib_search_path is nullptr at startup, but points to an empty string after doing "set solib-search-path". This leads to some code that needs to check for both to check for "no value". Or some code that converts back and forth between NULL and "" when getting or setting the value. I find this very error-prone, because it is very easy to forget one or the other. With std::string, we at least know that the variable is not "NULL". There is only one way of representing an empty string setting, that is with an empty string. I was wondering whether the distinction between NULL and "" would be important for some setting, but it doesn't seem so. If that ever happens, it would be more C++-y and self-descriptive to use optional<string> anyway. Actually, there's one spot where this distinction mattered, it's in init_history, for the test gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp. init_history sets the history filename to the default ".gdb_history" if it sees that the setting was never set - if history_filename is nullptr. If history_filename is an empty string, it means the setting was explicitly cleared, so it leaves it as-is. With the change to std::string, this distinction doesn't exist anymore. This can be fixed by moving the code that chooses a good default value for history_filename to _initialize_top. This is ran before -ex commands are processed, so an -ex command can then clear that value if needed (what gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp tests). Another small improvement, in my opinion is that we can now easily give string parameters initial values, by simply initializing the global variables, instead of xstrdup-ing it in the _initialize function. In Python and Guile, when registering a string-like parameter, we allocate (with new) an std::string that is owned by the param_smob (in Guile) and the parmpy_object (in Python) objects. This patch started by changing all relevant add_setshow_* commands to take an `std::string *` instead of a `char **` and fixing everything that failed to build. That includes of course all string setting variable and their uses. string_option_def now uses an std::string also, because there's a connection between options and settings (see add_setshow_cmds_for_options). The add_path function in source.c is really complex and twisted, I'd rather not try to change it to work on an std::string right now. Instead, I added an overload that copies the std:string to a `char *` and back. This means more copying, but this is not used in a hot path at all, so I think it is acceptable.

2019-07-09Rename common to gdbsupportTom Tromey1-2/+2
This is the next patch in the ongoing series to move gdbsever to the top level. This patch just renames the "common" directory. The idea is to do this move in two parts: first rename the directory (this patch), then move the directory to the top. This approach makes the patches a bit more tractable. I chose the name "gdbsupport" for the directory. However, as this patch was largely written by sed, we could pick a new name without too much difficulty.

2019-07-03Teach gdb::option about string optionsPedro Alves1-0/+21
A following patch will make the "pipe" command use the gdb::option framework for option processing. However, "pipe"'s only option today is a string option, "-d DELIM", and gdb::option does not support string options yet. This commit adds support for string options, mapped to var_string. For now, a string is parsed up until the first whitespace. I imagine that we'll need to add support for quoting so that we could do: (gdb) cmd -option 'some -string' without gdb confusing the "-string" for an option. This doesn't seem important for pipe, so I'm leaving it for another day. One thing I'm not happy with, is that the string data is managed as a raw malloc-allocated char *, which means that we need to xfree it manually. This is because var_string settings work that way too. Although with var_string settings we're leaking the strings at gdb exit, that was never really a problem. For options though, leaking is undesirable. I think we should tackle that for both settings and options at the same time, so for now I'm just managing the malloced data manually. It's a bit ugly in option_def_and_value, but at least that's hidden from view. For testing, this adds a new "-string" option to "maint test-settings", and then tweaks gdb.base/options.exp to exercise it. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-07-03 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cli/cli-option.c (union option_value) <string>: New field.

2019-06-13Introduce generic command options frameworkPedro Alves1-0/+335
This commit adds a generic command options framework, that makes it easy enough to add '-'-style options to commands in a uniform way, instead of each command implementing option parsing in its own way. Options are defined in arrays of option_def objects (for option definition), and the same options definitions are used for supporting TAB completion, and also for generating the relevant help fragment of the "help" command. See the gdb::options::build_help function, which returns a string with the result of replacing %OPTIONS% in a template string with an auto-generated "help" string fragment for all the passed-in options. Since most options in GDB are in the form of "-OPT", with a single dash, this is the format that the framework supports. I like to think of gdb's "-OPT" as the equivalent to getopt's long options format ("--OPT"), and gdb's "/" as the equivalent to getopt's short options format. getopt's short options format allows mixing several one-character options, like "ls -als", kind of similar to gdb's "x /FMT" and "disassemble /MOD", etc. While with gdb's "-" options, the option is expected to have a full name, and to be abbreviatable. E.g., "watch -location", "break -function main", etc. This patch only deals with "-" options. The above comment serves more to disclose why I don't think we should support mixing several unrelated options in a single "-" option invocation, like "thread apply -qcs" instead of "thread apply -q -c -s". The following patches will add uses of the infrastructure to several key commands. Most notably, "print", "compile print", "backtrace", "frame apply" and "thread apply". I tried to add options to several commands in order to make sure the framework didn't leave that many open holes open. Options use the same type as set commands -- enum var_types. So boolean options are var_boolean, enum options are var_enum, etc. The idea is to share code between settings commands and command options. The "print" options will be based on the "set print" commands, and their names will be the same. Actually, their definitions will be the same too. There is a function to create "set/show" commands from an array for option definitions: /* Install set/show commands for options defined in OPTIONS. DATA is a pointer to the structure that holds the data associated with the OPTIONS array. */ extern void add_setshow_cmds_for_options (command_class cmd_class, void *data, gdb::array_view<const option_def> options, struct cmd_list_element **set_list, struct cmd_list_element **show_list); That will be used by several following patches. Other features: - You can use the "--" delimiter to explicitly indicate end of options. Several existing commands use this token sequence for this effect already, so this just standardizes it. - You can shorten option names, as long as unambiguous. Currently, some commands allow this (e.g., break -function), while others do not (thread apply all -ascending). As GDB allows abbreviating command names and other things, it feels more GDB-ish to allow abbreviating option names too, to me. - For boolean options, 0/1 stands for off/on, just like with boolean "set" commands. - For boolean options, "true" is implied, just like with boolean "set commands. These are the option types supported, with a few examples: - boolean options (var_boolean). The option's argument is optional. (gdb) print -pretty on -- *obj (gdb) print -pretty off -- *obj (gdb) print -p -- *obj (gdb) print -p 0 -- *obj - flag options (like var_boolean, but no option argument (on/off)) (gdb) thread apply all -s COMMAND - enum options (var_enum) (gdb) bt -entry-values compact (gdb) bt -e c - uinteger options (var_uinteger) (gdb) print -elements 100 -- *obj (gdb) print -e 100 -- *obj (gdb) print -elements unlimited -- *obj (gdb) print -e u -- *obj - zuinteger-unlimited options (var_zuinteger_unlimited) (gdb) print -max-depth 100 -- obj (gdb) print -max-depth -1 -- obj (gdb) print -max-depth unlimited -- obj Other var_types could be supported, of course. These were just the types that I needed for the commands that I ported over, in the following patches. It was interesting (and unfortunate) to find that we need at least 3 different modes to cover the existing commands: - Commands that require ending options with "--" if you specify any option: "print" and "compile print". - Commands that do not want to require "--", and want to error out if you specify an unknown option (i.e., an unknown argument that starts with '-'): "compile code" / "compile file". - Commands that do not want to require "--", and want to process unknown options themselves: "bt", because of "bt -COUNT", "thread/frame apply", because "-" is a valid command. The different behavior is encoded in the process_options_mode enum, passed to process_options/complete_options. For testing, this patch adds one representative maintenance command for each of the process_options_mode values, that are used by the testsuite to exercise the options framework: (gdb) maint test-options require-delimiter (gdb) maint test-options unknown-is-error (gdb) maint test-options unknown-is-operand and adds another command to help with TAB-completion testing: (gdb) maint show test-options-completion-result See their description at the top of the maint-test-options.c file.
