For an older dejagnu without find_gnatmake, gdb_find_gnatmake is renamed to find_gnatmake, and we do run into the error. It's confusing that we're using the gdb_ prefix for gdb_find_gnatmake, it seems something legitimate to use. Maybe we should use future_ or gdb_future_ prefix instead to make this more clear, but I've left that alone for now.

2024-04-18alpha_vms_get_section_contents vs. fuzzed filesAlan Modra1-24/+26
This patch is in response to an oss-fuzz report regarding use-of-uninitialized-value in bfd_is_section_compressed_info from section contents provided by alpha_vms_get_section_contents. That hole is covered by using bfd_zalloc rather than bfd_alloc. The rest of the patch is mostly a tidy. In a function returning section contents, I tend to prefer a test on the section properties over a test on file properties. That's why I've changed the file flags test to one on section filepos and flags before calling _bfd_generic_get_section_contents. Also, fuzzed objects can easily have sections with file backing in relocatable objects, or sections without file backing in images. Possible confusion is avoided by testing each section. Note that we are always going to run into out-of-memory with fuzzed alpha-vms object files due to sections with contents via ETIR records. eg. ETIR__C_STO_IMMR stores a number of bytes repeatedly, with a 32-bit repeat count. So section contents can be very large from a relatively small file. I'm inclined to think that an out-of-memory error is fine for such files. * vms-alpha.c (alpha_vms_get_section_contents): Handle sections with non-zero filepos or without SEC_HAS_CONTENTS via _bfd_generic_get_section_contents.

2024-04-17gdb/Windows: Fix detach while runningPedro Alves3-8/+267
While testing a WIP Cygwin GDB that supports non-stop, I noticed that gdb.threads/attach-non-stop.exp exposes that this: (gdb) attach PID& ... (gdb) detach ... hangs. And it turns out that it hangs in all-stop as well. This commits fixes that. After "attach &", the target is set running, we've called ContinueDebugEvent and the process_thread thread is waiting for WaitForDebugEvent events. It is the equivalent of "attach; c&". In windows_nat_target::detach, the first thing we do is unconditionally call windows_continue (for ContinueDebugEvent), which blocks in do_synchronously, until the process_thread sees an event out of WaitForDebugEvent. Unless the inferior happens to run into a breakpoint, etc., then this hangs indefinitely. If we've already called ContinueDebugEvent earlier, then we shouldn't be calling it again in ::detach. Still in windows_nat_target::detach, we have an interesting issue that ends up being the bulk of the patch -- only the process_thread thread can call DebugActiveProcessStop, but if it is blocked in WaitForDebugEvent, we need to somehow force it to break out of it. The only way to do that, is to force the inferior to do something that causes WaitForDebugEvent to return some event. This patch uses CreateRemoteThread to do it, which results in WaitForDebugEvent reporting CREATE_THREAD_DEBUG_EVENT. We then terminate the injected thread before it has a chance to run any userspace code. Note that Win32 functions like DebugBreakProcess and GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent would also inject a new thread in the inferior. I first used DebugBreakProcess, but that is actually more complicated to use, because we'd have to be sure to consume the breakpoint event before detaching, otherwise the inferior would likely die due a breakpoint exception being raised with no debugger around to intercept it. See the new break_out_process_thread method. So the fix has two parts: - Keep track of whether we've called ContinueDebugEvent and the process_thread thread is waiting for events, or whether WaitForDebugEvent already returned an event. - In windows_nat_target::detach, if the process_thread thread is waiting for events, unblock out of its WaitForDebugEvent, before proceeding with the actual detach. New test included. Passes cleanly on GNU/Linux native and gdbserver, and also passes cleanly on Cygwin and MinGW, with the fix. Before the fix, it would hang and fail with a timeout.

2024-04-17gdb/record: minor clean, remove some unneeded argumentsAndrew Burgess3-6/+37
I spotted that the two functions: record_full_open_1 record_full_core_open_1 both took two arguments, neither of which are used. I stumbled onto this while reviewing how filename_completer is used. The 'record full restore' command uses filename_completer and invokes the cmd_record_full_restore function. The cmd_record_full_restore function calls core_file_command and then record_full_open, which then calls one of the above functions. As 'record full restore' takes a filename, this is passed to cmd_record_full_restore, which forwards the filename to both core_file_command and record_full_open. However, record_full_open never actually uses the filename that is passed in. The record_full_open function is also used for 'target record-full'. I propose that record_full_open should no longer expect to see any user supplied arguments passed in (it doesn't use any). In fact, I've added a check that if we do get any user supplied arguments we'll throw an error. Now that we know record_full_open isn't being passed any user arguments we can stop passing the arguments to record_full_open_1 and record_full_core_open_1, this will make no user visible difference as these arguments were not used. It is possible that a user was previously doing: (gdb) target record-full blah blah blah And this previously would work fine, the 'blah blah blah' was ignored. Now this will give an error. Other than this case there should be no user visible changes after this commit. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
2024-04-17gdb/record: add an assert in cmd_record_startAndrew Burgess1-1/+6
The 'record' command is both a prefix command AND an alias for 'target record-full'. As it is a prefix command, if a user types: (gdb) record blah Then GDB will look for, and try to invoke the 'blah' sub-command. This will either succeed (if blah is found) or throw an error (if blah is not found). As such, the only way to invoke the 'record' command is like: (gdb) record It is impossible to pass arguments to the 'record' command. As we know this is true then we can assert this in cmd_record_start. I added this assert because initially I was going to try forwarding ARGS from cmd_record_start to the 'target record-full' command, but then I realised passing arguments to 'record' was impossible. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
2024-04-17gdb/record: remove unnecessary use of filename_completerAndrew Burgess1-2/+0
Spotted that the 'record' command has its completer set to filename_completer. The problem is that 'record' is a prefix command, as such, its completer is hard-coded to complete on sub-commands. The attempt to use filename_completer is irrelevant. The 'record' command is itself a command though, that is, a user can do this: (gdb) record which is really just an alias for: (gdb) target record-full Nowhere does cmd_record_start (which is called when 'record' is used) expect a filename, and 'target record-full' doesn't expect a filename either. So lets just drop the line which sets filename_completer as the completer for 'record'. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>

2024-04-17aarch64: Remove asserts from operand qualifier decoders [PR31595]Victor Do Nascimento4-18/+87
Given that the disassembler should never abort when decoding (potentially random) data, assertion statements in the `get_*reg_qualifier_from_value' function family prove problematic. Consider the random 32-bit word W, encoded in a data segment and encountered on execution of `objdump -D <obj_name>'. If: (W & ~opcode_mask) == valid instruction Then before `print_insn_aarch64_word' has a chance to report the instruction as potentially undefined, an attempt will be made to have the qualifiers for the instruction's register operands (if any) decoded. If the relevant bits do not map onto a valid qualifier for the matched instruction-like word, an abort will be triggered and the execution of objdump aborted. As this scenario is perfectly feasible and, in light of the fact that objdump must successfully decode all sections of a given object file, it is not appropriate to assert in this family of functions. Therefore, we add a new pseudo-qualifier `AARCH64_OPND_QLF_ERR' for handling invalid qualifier-associated values and re-purpose the assertion conditions in qualifier-retrieving functions to be the predicate guarding the returning of the calculated qualifier type. If the predicate fails, we return this new qualifier and allow the caller to handle the error as appropriate. As these functions are called either from within `aarch64_extract_operand' or `do_special_decoding', both of which are expected to return non-zero values, it suffices that callers return zero upon encountering `AARCH64_OPND_QLF_ERR'. Ar present the error presented in the hypothetical scenario has been encountered in `get_sreg_qualifier_from_value', but the change is made to the whole family to keep the interface consistent.

To fix this, it added another way of getting the gdbserver_pid.

2024-04-16Avoid cache race in bfd_check_format_matchesTom Tromey5-5/+109
Running the gdb test suite with the thread sanitizer enabled shows a race when bfd_check_format_matches and bfd_cache_close_all are called simultaneously on different threads. This patch fixes this race by having bfd_check_format_matches temporarily remove the BFD from the file descriptor cache -- leaving it open while format-checking proceeds. In this setup, the BFD client is responsible for closing the BFD again on the "checking" thread, should that be desired. gdb does this by calling bfd_cache_close in the relevant worker thread. An earlier version of this patch omitted the "possibly_cached" helper function. However, this ran into crashes in the binutils test suite involving the archive-checking abort in bfd_cache_lookup_worker. I do not understand the purpose of this check, so I've simply had the new function work around it. I couldn't find any comments explaining this situation, either. I suspect that there may still be races related to this case, but I don't think I have access to the platforms where gdb deals with archives.

2024-04-16Thread-safety improvements for bfd_check_format_matchesTom Tromey4-121/+183
A gdb bug found that bfd_check_format_matches has some data races when called from multiple threads. In particular, it changes the BFD error handler, which is a global. It also has a local static variable ("in_check_format") that is used for recursion detection. And, finally, it may emit warnings to the per-xvec warning array, which is a global. This patch removes all the races here. The first part of patch is to change _bfd_error_handler to directly handle the needs of bfd_check_format_matches. This way, the error handler does not need to be changed. This change lets us use the new per-thread global (error_handler_messages, replacing error_handler_bfd) to also remove the need for in_check_format -- a single variable suffices. Finally, the global per-xvec array is replaced with a new type that holds the error messages. The outermost such type is stack-allocated in bfd_check_format_matches. I tested this using the binutils test suite. I also built gdb with thread sanitizer and ran the test case that was noted as failing. Finally, Alan sent me the test file that caused the addition of the xvec warning code in the first place, and I confirmed that "nm-new" has the same behavior on this file both before and after this patch.

2024-04-16Correctly handle DIE parent computationsTom Tromey4-50/+80
Tom de Vries pointed out that the combination of sharding, multi-threading, and per-CU "racing" means that sometimes a cross-CU DIE reference might not be correctly resolved. However, it's important to handle this correctly, due to some unfortunate aspects of DWARF. This patch implements this by arranging to preserve each worker's DIE map through the end of index finalization. The extra data is discarded when finalization is done. This approach also allows the parent name resolution to be sharded, by integrating it into the existing entry finalization loop. In an earlier review, I remarked that addrmap couldn't be used here. However, I was mistaken. A *mutable* addrmap cannot be used, as those are based on splay trees and restructure the tree even during lookups (and thus aren't thread-safe). A fixed addrmap, on the other hand, is just a vector and is thread-safe. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30846
2024-04-16Introduce class parent_map for DIE range mapTom Tromey3-31/+154
This changes the DIE range map from a raw addrmap to a custom class. A new type is used to represent the ranges, in an attempt to gain a little type safety as well. Note that the new code includes a map-of-maps type. This is not used yet, but will be used in the next patch. Co-Authored-By: Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
2024-04-16Add move operators for addrmapTom Tromey2-6/+25
A subsequent patch needs to move an addrmap. This patch adds the necessary support. It also changes addrmap_fixed to take a 'const' addrmap_mutable. This is fine according to the contract of addrmap_mutable; but it did require a compensating const_cast in the implementation.
2024-04-16Change handling of DW_TAG_enumeration_type in DWARF scannerTom Tromey1-9/+7
Currently the DWARF scanner will enter enumeration constants into the same namespace as the DW_TAG_enumeration_type itself. This is the right thing to do, but the implementation may result in strange entries being added to the addrmap that maps DIE ranges to entries. This came up when debugging an earlier version of this series; and while I don't think this should impact the current series, it seems better to clean this up anyway. In the new code, rather than pass the "wrong" scope down through recursive calls to the scanner, the correct scope is always passed, and then the parent handling is done when creating the enumerator entry.
2024-04-16[gdb/symtab] Refactor condition in scan_attributesTom de Vries1-8/+10
In scan_attributes there's code: ... if (new_reader->cu == reader->cu && new_info_ptr > watermark_ptr && *parent_entry == nullptr) ... else if (*parent_entry == nullptr) ... ... that uses the "*parent_entry == nullptr" condition twice. Make this somewhat more readable by factoring out the condition: ... if (*parent_entry == nullptr) { if (new_reader->cu == reader->cu && new_info_ptr > watermark_ptr) ... else ... } ... This also allows us to factor out "form_addr (origin_offset, origin_is_dwz)". Tested on x86_64-linux.
