commit 15e15b2d9cd3b1db68f99cd3b047352142ddfd1c
Date: Fri Sep 17 18:12:34 2021 +0100
gdb/python: implement the print_insn extension language hook
added the gdb.disassembler.builtin_disassemble Python API function.
By mistake, the implementation accepted two arguments, the second
being a "memory_source".
However, this second argument was never used, it was left over from an
earlier proposed version of the API.
Luckily, the only place the unused argument was documented was in the
NEWS file and in the output of `help(gdb.builtin_disassemble)`, and
neither of these locations really describe what the argument was, or
how it would be used. The manual only describes the first (actually
used) argument, so I think we are safe enough to delete the unused
argument.
This allows some additional cleanup, with the store for the argument
also being deleted.
As the NEWS file did originally document the second argument, I have
added a NEWS entry to explain the argument has now been removed.
This could potentially break users code if they somehow decided to
pass a second argument, however, fixing things is as simple as
removing the second (unused) argument.

I noticed that it was not possible to return a string containing non
utf-8 characters using gdb.execute(). For example, using the binary
from the gdb.python/py-source-styling.exp test:
(gdb) file ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.python/py-source-styling/py-source-styling
Reading symbols from ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.python/py-source-styling/py-source-styling...
(gdb) set style enabled off
(gdb) list 26
21 int some_variable = 1234;
22
23 /* The following line contains a character that is non-utf-8. This is a
24 critical part of the test as Python 3 can't convert this into a string
25 using its default mechanism. */
26 char c[] = "�"; /* List this line. */
27
28 return 0;
29 }
(gdb) python print(gdb.execute('list 26', to_string=True))
Python Exception <class 'UnicodeDecodeError'>: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc0 in position 250: invalid start byte
Error occurred in Python: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc0 in position 250: invalid start byte
It is necessary to disable styling before the initial 'list 26',
otherwise the source will be passed through GNU source highlight, and
GNU source highlight seems to be smart enough to figure out the
character encoding, and convert it to UTF-8. This conversion is then
cached in the source cache, and the later Python gdb.execute call will
get back a pure UTF-8 string.
If source styling is disabled, then GDB caches the string without the
conversion to UTF-8, now the gdb.execute call gets back the string
with a non-UTF-8 character within it, and Python throws an error
during its attempt to create a string object.
I'm not, at this point, proposing a solution that tries to guess the
source file encoding, though I guess such a thing could be done.
Instead, I think we should make use of the host_charset(), as set by
the user with 'set host-charset ....' during the creation of the
Python string.
To do this, in execute_gdb_command, we should switch from
PyUnicode_FromString, which requires the input be a UTF-8 string, to
using PyUnicode_Decode, which allows GDB to specify the string
encoding. We will use host_charset().
With this done, it is now possible to list the file contents using
gdb.execute(), with the contents passing through a string:
(gdb) set host-charset ISO-8859-1
(gdb) python print(gdb.execute('list 26', to_string=True), end='')
21 int some_variable = 1234;
22
23 /* The following line contains a character that is non-utf-8. This is a
24 critical part of the test as Python 3 can't convert this into a string
25 using its default mechanism. */
26 char c[] = "À"; /* List this line. */
27
28 return 0;
29 }
(gdb)
There are already plenty of other places in GDB's Python code where we
use PyUnicode_Decode to create a string from something that might
contain user generated content, so I believe this is the correct
approach.

Compilers often emit relative paths in the line number program,
relative to the build directory for that compilation unit (if it's
DWARF>=4 I think).
Therefore use symtab->fullname() when not null as this seemingly
has attempted path normalization for the symtab and only
fall back on symtab->filename which will never be null if that fails.
This has a much better UX. Applications may choose to expose
this name as a clickable link to some file, at which point
a non-normalized and non-absolute path would lead nowhere.
When I wrote this feature the first time, I don't think this
relative-to-cu-scheme was as prevalent in the output of gcc/clang
for DWARF.

Frame unwinders have historically been a structure populated with
callback pointers, so that architectures (or other specific unwinders)
could install their own way to handle the inferior. However, since
moving to C++, we could use polymorphism to get the same functionality
in a more readable way. Polymorphism also makes it simpler to add new
functionality to all frame unwinders, since all that's required is
adding it to the base class.
As part of the changes to add support to disabling frame unwinders,
this commit makes the first baby step in using polymorphism for the
frame unwinders, by making frame_unwind a virtual class, and adds a
couple of new classes. The main class added is frame_unwind_legacy,
which works the same as the previous structs, using function pointers
as callbacks. This class was added to allow the transition to happen
piecemeal. New unwinders should instead follow the lead of the other
classes implemented.
2 of the others, frame_unwind_python and frame_unwind_trampoline, were added
because it seemed simpler at the moment to do that instead of reworking
the dynamic allocation to work with the legacy class, and can be used as
an example to future implementations.
Finally, the cygwin unwinder was converted to a class since it was most
of the way there already.

A future patch will add a way to disable certain unwinders based on
different characteristics. This patch aims to make it more convenient
to disable related unwinders in bulk, such as architecture specific
ones, by identifying all unwinders by which part of the code adds it.
The classes, and explanations, are as follows:
* GDB: An internal unwinder, added by GDB core, such as the unwinder
for dummy frames;
* EXTENSION: Unwinders added by extension languages;
* DEBUGINFO: Unwinders installed by the debug info reader;
* ARCH: Unwinders installed by the architecture specific code.

as an RGB hexadecimal tripplet #RRGGBB for 24-bit TrueColor, or as an
integer from 0 to 255. Integers 0 to 7 are the synonyms for the standard
colors. Integers 8-15 are used for the so-called bright colors from the
aixterm extended 16-color palette. Integers 16-255 are the indexes into xterm
extended 256-color palette (usually 6x6x6 cube plus gray ramp). In
general, 256-color palette is terminal dependent and sometimes can be
changed with OSC 4 sequences, e.g. "\033]4;1;rgb:00/FF/00\033\\".

We discovered that attempting to print a very large string-like array
would succeed on the CLI, but in DAP would cause the "variables"
request to fail with:
value requires 67038491 bytes, which is more than max-value-size
This turns out to be a limitation in Value.format_string, which
de-lazy-ifies the value.
This patch fixes this problem by introducing a new NoOpStringPrinter
class, and then using it for string-like values. This printer returns
a lazy string, which solves the problem.
Note there are some special cases where we do not want to return a
lazy string. I've documented these in the code. I considered making
gdb.Value.lazy_string handle these cases -- for example it could
return 'self' rather than a lazy string in some situations -- but this
approach was simpler.
|
|
gdbpy_create_lazy_string_object will throw an exception if you pass it
a NULL pointer without also setting length=0 -- the default,
length==-1, will fail. This seems bizarre. Furthermore, it doesn't
make sense to do this check for array types, as an array can have a
zero length. This patch cleans up the check and makes it specific to
TYPE_CODE_PTR.
|
|
Currently, gdb.Value.lazy_string will allow the conversion of any
object to a "lazy string". However, this was never the intent and is
weird besides. This patch changes this code to correctly throw an
exception in the non-matching cases.

While testing DAP, we found a situation where a compiler-generated
variable caused the "variables" request to fail -- the variable in
question being an apparent 67-megabyte string.
It seems to me that artificial variables like this aren't interesting
to DAP users, and the gdb CLI omits these as well.
This patch changes DAP to omit these variables, adding a new
gdb.Symbol.is_artificial attribute to make this possible.

PR dap/32090 points out that gdb's DAP "launch" sequencing is
incorrect. The current approach (which is itself a 2nd
implementation...) was based on a misreading of the spec. The spec
has since been clarified here:
https://github.com/microsoft/debug-adapter-protocol/issues/497
The clarification here is that a client is free to send the "launch"
(or "attach") request at any point after the "initialized" event has
been sent by gdb. However, the "launch" does not cause any action to
be taken -- and does not send a response -- until after
"configurationDone" has been seen.
This patch implements this by arranging for the launch and attach
commands to return a DeferredRequest object.
All the tests needed updates. I've also added a new test that checks
that the deferred "launch" request can be cancelled. (Note that the
cancellation is lazy -- it also waits until configurationDone is seen.
This could be fixed, but I was not sure whether it is important to do
so.)
Finally, the "launch" command has a somewhat funny sequencing now.
Simply sending the command and waiting for a response yielded strange
results if the inferior did not stop -- in this case, the repsonse was
never sent. So now, the command is split into two parts, with some
setup being done synchronously (for better error propagation) and the
actual "run" being done async.

This adds a new "deferred request" capability to DAP. The idea here
is that if a request returns a DeferredRequest object, then no
response is sent immediately to the client. Instead, the request is
pending until the deferred request is rescheduled.

make this work.
There's no use of this in the tree yet -- that is the next patch.

This patch started as an attempt to fix the comment in
CancellationHandler.cancel, but while working on it I found that the
code could be improved as well.
The current DAP cancellation code only handles the case where work is
done on the gdb thread -- by checking for cancellation in
interruptable_region. This means that if a request is handled
completely in tthe DAP thread, then cancellation will never work.
Now, this isn't a bug per se. DAP doesn't actually require that
cancellation succeed. In fact, I think it can't, because cancellation
is inherently racy.
However, a coming patch will add a sort of "pending" request, and it
would be nice if that were cancellable before any commands are sent to
the gdb thread.
No test in this patch, but one will arrive at the end of the series.

A common problem is that python may fail to initialize if PYTHONHOME is
set incorrectly, or points to incompatible default libraries.
Likewise if PYTHONPATH points to incompatible modules.
For instance, say PYTHONHOME is foo, then we get:
...
$ gdb -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
PYTHONPATH = (not set)
program name = '/usr/bin/python'
isolated = 0
environment = 1
user site = 1
safe_path = 0
import site = 1
is in build tree = 0
stdlib dir = 'foo/lib64/python3.12'
sys._base_executable = '/usr/bin/python'
sys.base_prefix = 'foo'
sys.base_exec_prefix = 'foo'
sys.platlibdir = 'lib64'
sys.executable = '/usr/bin/python'
sys.prefix = 'foo'
sys.exec_prefix = 'foo'
sys.path = [

'foo/lib64/python3.12/lib-dynload',
]
Python Exception <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'encodings'

$
...
In this case, it might be easy to figure out what went wrong because of the
obviously incorrect pathnames, but that might not be the case if PYTHONHOME
points to an incompatible python installation.
Fix this by adding a warning with a description of the possible cause and what
to do about it:
...

gdb: warning: Python failed to initialize with PYTHONHOME set. Maybe because \

This is not clear in the code: we set Py_DontWriteBytecodeFlag and

variables to py_initialization.
Furthermore, this is not clear to the user: after Python initialization, the

...
$ gdb -q
(gdb) show python ignore-environment
Python's ignore-environment setting is off.
(gdb) set python ignore-environment on
(gdb) show python ignore-environment
Python's ignore-environment setting is on.

...
Fix this by emitting a warning when trying to set these configuration flags
after Python initialization:
...
$ gdb -q
(gdb) set python ignore-environment on
warning: Setting python ignore-environment after Python initialization has \

(gdb) set python dont-write-bytecode on
warning: Setting python dont-write-bytecode after Python initialization has \
no effect, try setting this during early initialization, or try setting \
sys.dont_write_bytecode
...
and by keeping the values constant after Python initialization.
Since the auto setting for python dont-write-bytecode depends on the current
value of environment variable PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE, we simply avoid it
after Python initialization:
...

deprecation of Py_SetProgramName in 3.11.
For the "!defined (WITH_PYTHON_PATH)" case, we don't use Py_SetProgramName so
we stuck with Py_Initialize ().
However, in 3.12 Py_DontWriteBytecodeFlag and Py_IgnoreEnvironmentFlag got
deprecated and also here we need Py_InitializeFromConfig () to deal with this,
but the "!defined (WITH_PYTHON_PATH)" case didn't get updated.
This should be taken care of, now that we have this behavior:
- for PY_VERSION_HEX < 0x030a0000 we use Py_Initialize
- for PY_VERSION_HEX >= 0x030a0000 we use Py_InitializeFromConfig
I'm not sure how to test the "!defined (WITH_PYTHON_PATH)" though.
Tested on aarch64-linux.

Eli mentioned [1] that given that we use US English spelling in our
documentation, we should use "behavior" instead of "behaviour".
In wikipedia-common-misspellings.txt there's a rule:
...
behavour->behavior, behaviour
...
which leaves this as a choice.
Add an overriding rule to hardcode the choice to common-misspellings.txt:
...
behavour->behavior
...
and add a rule to rewrite behaviour into behavior:
...
behaviour->behavior
...
and re-run spellcheck.sh on gdb*.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect
PYTHONHOME, and got:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo ./gdb.sh -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
...
Python initialization failed: \
failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding
Python not initialized
$
...
The relevant part of the code is:
...
static void
gdbpy_initialize (const struct extension_language_defn *extlang)
{
if (!do_start_initialization () && py_isinitialized && PyErr_Occurred ())
gdbpy_print_stack ();
gdbpy_enter enter_py;
...
What happens is:
- gdbpy_enter::gdbpy_enter () is called, where we run into:
'if (!gdb_python_initialized) error (_("Python not initialized"));'
- the error propagates to gdb's toplevel
- gdb print the error and exits.
It seems unnecesssary that we exit gdb. We could continue the
session without python support.
Fix this by:
- bailing out of gdbpy_initialize if !do_start_initialization
- bailing out of finalize_python if !gdb_python_initialized
This gets us instead:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Python path configuration:
PYTHONHOME = 'foo'
...
Python initialization failed: \
failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding
(gdb) python print (1)
Python not initialized
(gdb)
...

I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect
PYTHONHOME with python 3.6, and got:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
Current thread 0x0000ffff89269c80 (most recent call first):
Fatal signal: Aborted
...
Aborted (core dumped)
$
...
This is as per spec: when Py_Initialize () fails, a fatal error is raised
using Py_FatalError.
This can be worked around using:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q -eiex "set python ignore-environment on"
(gdb)
...
but it would be better if gdb didn't abort.
I found an article [1] describing two solutions:
- try out Py_Initialize in a separate process, and
- catch the abort using a signal handler.
This patch implements the latter solution.
Obviously we cannot call into python anymore after the abort, so we avoid
calling Py_IsInitialized (), and instead use a new variable py_isinitialized.
This gets us instead:
...
$ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
Current thread 0x0000fffecfd49c80 (most recent call first):
Python not initialized
