2024-03-26gdb, gdbserver, gdbsupport: remove includes of early headersSimon Marchi1-1/+0
Now that defs.h, server.h and common-defs.h are included via the `-include` option, it is no longer necessary for source files to include them. Remove all the inclusions of these files I could find. Update the generation scripts where relevant. Change-Id: Ia026cff269c1b7ae7386dd3619bc9bb6a5332837 Approved-By: Pedro Alves <pedro@palves.net>
2024-01-12Update copyright year range in header of all files managed by GDBAndrew Burgess1-1/+1
This commit is the result of the following actions: - Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to include 2024, - Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the file, - Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright date, - Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've updated them this year to 2024. I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as you spot them.
2023-01-01Update copyright year range in header of all files managed by GDBJoel Brobecker1-1/+1
This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script, which automated the update of the copyright year range for all source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include year 2023.

New in this version: add a dedicated test.

Note the "attach" command just above. When doing it on the command-line with a -ex switch, the bug doesn't trigger. The internal error of GDB is actually caused by GDBserver crashing, and the error recovery of GDB is not on point. This patch aims to fix just the GDBserver crash, not the GDB problem.

The current process is the 2nd one, which was just attached. It does not yet have thread_db data (proc->priv->thread_db is nullptr). As we iterate on all threads of all process to fulfull the qxfer:threads:read request, we get to a thread of process 1 for which we haven't read thread_db information yet (lwp_info::thread_known is false), so we get into find_one_thread. find_one_thread uses `current_process ()->priv->thread_db`, assuming the current process matches the ptid passed as a parameter, which is wrong. A segfault happens when trying to dereference that thread_db pointer. Fix this by making find_one_thread not assume what the current process / current thread is. If it needs to call into libthread_db, which we know will try to read memory from the current process, then temporarily set the current process. In the case where the thread is already know and we return early, we don't need to switch process. Add a test to reproduce this specific situation.

2022-01-18gdbserver: introduce threads_debug_printf, THREADS_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXITSimon Marchi1-27/+17
Add the threads_debug_printf and THREADS_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT, which use the logging infrastructure from gdbsupport/common-debug.h. Replace all debug_print uses that are predicated by debug_threads with threads_dethreads_debug_printf. Replace uses of the debug_enter and debug_exit macros with THREADS_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT, which serves essentially the same purpose, but allows showing what comes between the enter and the exit in an indented form. Note that "threads" debug is currently used for a bit of everything in GDBserver, not only threads related stuff. It should ideally be cleaned up and separated logically as is done in GDB, but that's out of the scope of this patch. Change-Id: I2d4546464462cb4c16f7f1168c5cec5a89f2289a
2022-01-01Automatic Copyright Year update after running gdb/copyright.pyJoel Brobecker1-1/+1

2021-12-13gdbserver: replace direct assignments to current_threadTankut Baris Aktemur1-9/+5
Replace the direct assignments to current_thread with switch_to_thread. Use scoped_restore_current_thread when appropriate. There is one instance remaining in linux-low.cc's wait_for_sigstop. This will be handled in a separate patch. Regression-tested on X86-64 Linux using the native-gdbserver and native-extended-gdbserver board files.
2021-09-23Remove defaulted 'tid' parameter to ptid_t constructorTom Tromey1-1/+1
I wanted to find, and potentially modify, all the spots where the 'tid' parameter to the ptid_t constructor was used. So, I temporarily removed this parameter and then rebuilt. In order to make it simpler to search through the "real" (nonzero) uses of this parameter, something I knew I'd have to do multiple times, I removed any ", 0" from constructor calls.

2020-07-22gdbserver: handle running threads in qXfer:threads:readPedro Alves1-8/+0
On some systems, the gdb.multi/multi-target.exp testcase occasionally fails like so: Running src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.multi/multi-target.exp ... FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-target.exp: info-inferiors: multi_process=on: inferior 1: info connections FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-target.exp: info-inferiors: multi_process=on: inferior 1: info inferiors FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-target.exp: info-inferiors: multi_process=on: inferior 2: info connections FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-target.exp: info-inferiors: multi_process=on: inferior 2: info inferiors FAIL: gdb.multi/multi-target.exp: info-inferiors: multi_process=on: inferior 3: inferior 3 ... many more cascading fails. The problem starts when the testcase runs an inferior against GDBserver: (gdb) run Starting program: build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/multi-target/multi-target Reading /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 from remote target... warning: File transfers from remote targets can be slow.

Note the "Remote connection closed" message. That means GDBserver exited abruptly. I traced it down to the fact that GDB fetches the thread list from GDBserver while the main thread of the process is still running. On my main system where I wrote the testcase, I have not observed the failure because it is slow enough that the thread stops before GDBserver fetches the thread list in the problem scenario which I'll describe below. With some --remote-debug logging from GDBserver side, we see the last packets before the connection closes: ... getpkt ("vCont;c"); [no ack sent] putpkt ("$OK#9a"); [noack mode] getpkt ("Tp10f9a.10f9a"); [no ack sent] putpkt ("$OK#9a"); [noack mode] getpkt ("Hgp0.0"); [no ack sent] putpkt ("$OK#9a"); [noack mode] getpkt ("qXfer:threads:read::0,1000"); [no ack sent] Note the vCont;c , which sets the program running, and then a qXfer:threads:read packet at the end. The problem happens when the thread list refresh (qXfer:threads:read) is sent just while the main thread is running and it still hasn't initialized its libpthread id internally. In that state, the main thread's lwp will remain with the thread_known flag clear. See in find_one_thread: /* If the new thread ID is zero, a final thread ID will be available later. Do not enable thread debugging yet. */ if (ti.ti_tid == 0) return 0; Now, back in server.cc, to handle the qXfer:threads:read, we reach handle_qxfer_threads -> handle_qxfer_threads_proper, and the latter then calls handle_qxfer_threads_worker for each known thread. In handle_qxfer_threads_worker, we call target_thread_handle. This ends up in thread_db_thread_handle, here: if (!lwp->thread_known && !find_one_thread (thread->id)) return false; Since the thread ID isn't known yet, we call find_one_thread. This calls into libthread_db.so, which accesses memory. Because the current thread is running, that fails and we throw an error, here: /* Get information about this thread. */ err = thread_db->td_ta_map_lwp2thr_p (thread_db->thread_agent, lwpid, &th); if (err != TD_OK) error ("Cannot get thread handle for LWP %d: %s", lwpid, thread_db_err_str (err)); The current design is that whenever GDB-facing packets/requests need to accesses memory, server.cc is supposed to prepare the target for the access. See gdb_read_memory / gdb_write_memory. This preparation means pausing threads if in non-stop mode (someday we could lift this requirement, but we will still need to pause to access registers or do other related ptrace accesses like PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA). Note that the multi-target.exp testcase forces "maint set target-non-stop on". So the fix here is to prepare the target to access memory when handling qXfer:threads:read too. gdbserver/ChangeLog: * inferiors.cc (switch_to_process): New, moved here from thread-db.cc, and made extern. * inferiors.h (switch_to_process): Declare. * server.cc: Include "gdbsupport/scoped_restore.h". (handle_qxfer_threads_proper): Now returns bool. Prepare to access memory around target calls. (handle_qxfer_threads): Handle errors. * thread-db.cc (switch_to_process): Moved to inferiors.cc.
