2025-01-29Use command style in cmd_show_listTom Tromey1-5/+9
cmd_show_list is a bit funny because it shows partial command names -- for a command like "show abc xyz", it will only show "abc xyz". Nevertheless, I think it makes some sense to highlight these with the command style. That is what this patch does.
2025-01-14Use filename style in "show" commandsTom Tromey1-2/+7
I found a few filename-related "show" commands that do not use the filename style when displaying the file. This patch fixes the oversight. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>
2025-01-12Add an option with a color type.Andrei Pikas1-0/+21
Colors can be specified as "none" for terminal's default color, as a name of one of the eight standard colors of ISO/IEC 6429 "black", "red", "green", etc., 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\\". It is the responsibility of the user to verify that the terminal supports the specified colors. PATCH v5 changes: documentation fixed. PATCH v6 changes: documentation fixed. PATCH v7 changes: rebase onto master and fixes after review. PATCH v8 changes: fixes after review.

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.

This changes gdb to use the C++17 [[fallthrough]] attribute rather than special comments. This was mostly done by script, but I neglected a few spellings and so also fixed it up by hand.

2023-01-19GDB: Allow arbitrary keywords in integer set commandsMaciej W. Rozycki1-130/+117
Rather than just `unlimited' allow the integer set commands (or command options) to define arbitrary keywords for the user to use, removing hardcoded arrangements for the `unlimited' keyword. Remove the confusingly named `var_zinteger', `var_zuinteger' and `var_zuinteger_unlimited' `set'/`show' command variable types redefining them in terms of `var_uinteger', `var_integer' and `var_pinteger', which have the range of [0;UINT_MAX], [INT_MIN;INT_MAX], and [0;INT_MAX] each. Following existing practice `var_pinteger' allows extra negative values to be used, however unlike `var_zuinteger_unlimited' any number of such values can be defined rather than just `-1'. The "p" in `var_pinteger' stands for "positive", for the lack of a more appropriate unambiguous letter, even though 0 obviously is not positive; "n" would be confusing as to whether it stands for "non-negative" or "negative". Add a new structure, `literal_def', the entries of which define extra keywords allowed for a command and numerical values they correspond to. Those values are not verified against the basic range supported by the underlying variable type, allowing extra values to be allowed outside that range, which may or may not be individually made visible to the user. An optional value translation is possible with the structure to follow the existing practice for some commands where user-entered 0 is internally translated to UINT_MAX or INT_MAX. Such translation can now be arbitrary. Literals defined by this structure are automatically used for completion as necessary. So for example: const literal_def integer_unlimited_literals[] = { { "unlimited", INT_MAX, 0 }, { nullptr } }; defines an extra `unlimited' keyword and a user-visible 0 value, both of which get translated to INT_MAX for the setting to be used with. Similarly: const literal_def zuinteger_unlimited_literals[] = { { "unlimited", -1, -1 }, { nullptr } }; defines the same keyword and a corresponding user-visible -1 value that is used for the requested setting. If the last member were omitted (or set to `{}') here, then only the keyword would be allowed for the user to enter and while -1 would still be used internally trying to enter it as a part of a command would result in an "integer -1 out of range" error. Use said error message in all cases (citing the invalid value requested) replacing "only -1 is allowed to set as unlimited" previously used for `var_zuinteger_unlimited' settings only rather than propagating it to `var_pinteger' type. It could only be used for the specific case where a single extra `unlimited' keyword was defined standing for -1 and the use of numeric equivalents is discouraged anyway as it is for historical reasons only that they expose GDB internals, confusingly different across variable types. Similarly update the "must be >= -1" Guile error message. Redefine Guile and Python parameter types in terms of the new variable types and interpret extra keywords as Scheme keywords and Python strings used to communicate corresponding parameter values. Do not add a new PARAM_INTEGER Guile parameter type, however do handle the `var_integer' variable type now, permitting existing parameters defined by GDB proper, such as `listsize', to be accessed from Scheme code. With these changes in place it should be trivial for a Scheme or Python programmer to expand the syntax of the `make-parameter' command and the `gdb.Parameter' class initializer to have arbitrary extra literals along with their internal representation supplied. Update the testsuite accordingly. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>

2022-06-29GDB: Remove extraneous full stops from `set' command error messagesMaciej W. Rozycki1-5/+5
With errors given for bad commands such as `set annotate' or `set width' we produce an extraneous full stop within parentheses: (gdb) set annotate Argument required (integer to set it to.). (gdb) set width Argument required (integer to set it to, or "unlimited".). (gdb) This is grammatically incorrect, so remove the full stop and adjust the testsuite accordingly.

2022-01-26gdb: add string_file::release methodSimon Marchi1-1/+1
A common pattern for string_file is to want to move out the internal string buffer, because it is the result of the computation that we want to return. It is the reason why string_file::string returns a non-const reference, as explained in the comment. I think it would make sense to have a dedicated method for that instead and make string_file::string return a const reference. This allows removing the explicit std::move in the typical case. Note that compile_program::compute was missing a move, meaning that the resulting string was copied. With the new version, it's not possible to forget to move.

2021-10-03gdb: Setting setter return a bool to tell if the value changedLancelot SIX1-70/+13
GDB can notify observers when a parameter is changed. To do that, do_set_command (in gdb/cli/cli-setshow.c) compares the new value against the old one before updating it, and based on that notifies observers. This looks like something like: int valuechanged = 0; switch (cmd->var.type ()) { case var_integer: { LONGEST new_val = parse_and_eval_long (arg) if (new_val != cmd->var.get<int> ()) { cmd->var.get<int> (new_val); value_changes = 1; } } case var_uinteger: case var_zuinteger: { unsigned int val = parse_cli_var_uinteger (c->var->type (), &arg, true); if (c->var->get<unsigned int> () != val) { c->var->set<unsigned int> (val); option_changed = true; } } case... /* And so on for all possible var_types. */ } This comparison is done for each possible var_type, which leads to unnecessary logic duplication. In this patch I propose to move all those checks in one place within the setting setter method. This limits the code duplication and simplifies the do_set_command implementation. This patch also changes slightly the way a value change is detected. Instead of comparing the user provided value against the current value of the setting, we compare the value of the setting before and after the set operation. This is meant to handle edge cases where trying to set an unrecognized value would be equivalent to a noop (the actual value remains unchanged). Doing this requires that the original value needs to be copied before the update, which can be non trivial for std::string. There should be no user visible change introduced by this commit.

2021-10-03gdb: make string-like set show commands use std::string variableSimon Marchi1-37/+22
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.

2021-10-03gdb: Introduce setting construct within cmd_list_elementLancelot SIX1-62/+106
cmd_list_element can contain a pointer to data that can be set and / or shown. This is achieved with the void* VAR member which points to the data that can be accessed, while the VAR_TYPE member (of type enum var_types) indicates how to interpret the data pointed to. With this pattern, the user of the cmd_list_element needs to know what is the storage type associated with a given VAR_TYPES in order to do the proper casting. No automatic safeguard is available to prevent miss-use of the pointer. Client code typically looks something like: switch (c->var_type) { case var_zuinteger: unsigned int v = *(unsigned int*) c->var; ... break; case var_boolean: bool v = *(bool *) c->var; ... break; ... } This patch proposes to add an abstraction around the var_types and void* pointer pair. The abstraction is meant to prevent the user from having to handle the cast and verify that the data is read or written as a type that is coherent with the setting's var_type. This is achieved by introducing the struct setting which exposes a set of templated get / set member functions. The template parameter is the type of the variable that holds the referred variable. Using those accessors allows runtime checks to be inserted in order to ensure that the data pointed to has the expected type. For example, instantiating the member functions with bool will yield something similar to: const bool &get<bool> () const { gdb_assert (m_var_type == var_boolean); gdb_assert (m_var != nullptr); return *static_cast<bool *> (m_var); } void set<bool> (const bool &var) { gdb_assert (m_var_type == var_boolean); gdb_assert (m_var != nullptr); *static_cast<bool *> (m_var) = var; } Using the new abstraction, our initial example becomes: switch (c->var_type) { case var_zuinteger: unsigned int v = c->var->get<unsigned int> (); ... break; case var_boolean: bool v = c->var->get<bool> (); ... break; ... } While the call site is still similar, the introduction of runtime checks help ensure correct usage of the data. In order to avoid turning the bulk of add_setshow_cmd_full into a templated function, and following a suggestion from Pedro Alves, a setting can be constructed from a pre validated type erased reference to a variable. This is what setting::erased_args is used for. Introducing an opaque abstraction to describe a setting will also make it possible to use callbacks to retrieve or set the value of the setting on the fly instead of pointing to a static chunk of memory. This will be done added in a later commit. Given that a cmd_list_element may or may not reference a setting, the VAR and VAR_TYPES members of the struct are replaced with a gdb::optional<setting> named VAR. Few internal function signatures have been modified to take into account this new abstraction: -The functions value_from_setting, str_value_from_setting and get_setshow_command_value_string used to have a 'cmd_list_element *' parameter but only used it for the VAR and VAR_TYPE member. They now take a 'const setting &' parameter instead. - Similarly, the 'void *' and a 'enum var_types' parameters of pascm_param_value and gdbpy_parameter_value have been replaced with a 'const setting &' parameter. No user visible change is expected after this patch. Tested on GNU/Linux x86_64, with no regression noticed.

2021-07-23gdb: remove cmd_list_element::function::sfuncSimon Marchi1-2/+3
I don't understand what the sfunc function type in cmd_list_element::function is for. Compared to cmd_simple_func_ftype, it has an extra cmd_list_element parameter, giving the callback access to the cmd_list_element for the command being invoked. This allows registering the same callback with many commands, and alter the behavior using the cmd_list_element's context. From the comment in cmd_list_element, it sounds like at some point it was the callback function type for set and show functions, hence the "s". But nowadays, it's used for many more commands that need to access the cmd_list_element object (see add_catch_command for example). I don't really see the point of having sfunc at all, since do_sfunc is just a trivial shim that changes the order of the arguments. All commands using sfunc could just as well set cmd_list_element::func to their callback directly. Therefore, remove the sfunc field in cmd_list_element and everything that goes with it. Rename cmd_const_sfunc_ftype to cmd_func_ftype and use it for cmd_list_element::func, as well as for the add_setshow commands. Change-Id: I1eb96326c9b511c293c76996cea0ebc51c70fac0

2021-05-12gdb: generate the prefix name for prefix commands on demandMarco Barisione1-8/+10
Previously, the prefixname field of struct cmd_list_element was manually set for prefix commands. This seems verbose and error prone as it required every single call to functions adding prefix commands to specify the prefix name while the same information can be easily generated. Historically, this was not possible as the prefix field was null for many commands, but this was fixed in commit 3f4d92ebdf7f848b5ccc9e8d8e8514c64fde1183 by Philippe Waroquiers, so we can rely on the prefix field being set when generating the prefix name. This commit also fixes a use after free in this scenario: * A command gets created via Python (using the gdb.Command class). The prefix name member is dynamically allocated. * An alias to the new command is created. The alias's prefixname is set to point to the prefixname for the original command with a direct assignment. * A new command with the same name as the Python command is created. * The object for the original Python command gets freed and its prefixname gets freed as well. * The alias is updated to point to the new command, but its prefixname is not updated so it keeps pointing to the freed one. gdb/ChangeLog: * command.h (add_prefix_cmd): Remove the prefixname argument as it can now be generated automatically.

2020-11-02gdb, gdbserver, gdbsupport: fix leading space vs tabs issuesSimon Marchi1-1/+1
Many spots incorrectly use only spaces for indentation (for example, there are a lot of spots in ada-lang.c). I've always found it awkward when I needed to edit one of these spots: do I keep the original wrong indentation, or do I fix it? What if the lines around it are also wrong, do I fix them too? I probably don't want to fix them in the same patch, to avoid adding noise to my patch. So I propose to fix as much as possible once and for all (hopefully). One typical counter argument for this is that it makes code archeology more difficult, because git-blame will show this commit as the last change for these lines. My counter counter argument is: when git-blaming, you often need to do "blame the file at the parent commit" anyway, to go past some other refactor that touched the line you are interested in, but is not the change you are looking for. So you already need a somewhat efficient way to do this. Using some interactive tool, rather than plain git-blame, makes this trivial. For example, I use "tig blame <file>", where going back past the commit that changed the currently selected line is one keystroke. It looks like Magit in Emacs does it too (though I've never used it). Web viewers of Github and Gitlab do it too. My point is that it won't really make archeology more difficult. The other typical counter argument is that it will cause conflicts with existing patches. That's true... but it's a one time cost, and those are not conflicts that are difficult to resolve. I have also tried "git rebase --ignore-whitespace", it seems to work well. Although that will re-introduce the faulty indentation, so one needs to take care of fixing the indentation in the patch after that (which is easy). gdb/ChangeLog: * aarch64-linux-tdep.c: Fix

2020-05-15Fix inconsistent output of prefix and bugs in 'show' commandPhilippe Waroquiers1-16/+22
cmd_show_list function implements the 'show' command. cmd_show_list output is inconsistent: it sometimes shows a prefix and sometimes does not. For example, in the below, you see that there is a prefix before each value, except for 'enabled'. (gdb) show style style address background: The "address" style background color is: none style address foreground: The "address" style foreground color is: blue style address intensity: The "address" style display intensity is: normal enabled: CLI output styling is enabled. style filename background: The "filename" style background color is: none ... There are other inconsistencies or bugs e.g. in the below we see twice insn-number-max, once with a prefix and once without prefix : last line, just before the value of instruction-history-size which is itself without prefix. (gdb) show record record btrace bts buffer-size: The record/replay bts buffer size is 65536. record btrace cpu: btrace cpu is 'auto'. record btrace pt buffer-size: The record/replay pt buffer size is 16384. record btrace replay-memory-access: Replay memory access is read-only. record full insn-number-max: Record/replay buffer limit is 200000. record full memory-query: Whether query if PREC cannot record memory change of next instruction is off. record full stop-at-limit: Whether record/replay stops when record/replay buffer becomes full is on. function-call-history-size: Number of functions to print in "record function-call-history" is 10. insn-number-max: instruction-history-size: Number of instructions to print in "record instruction-history" is 10. (gdb) Also, some values are output several times due to some aliases, so avoid outputting duplicated values by skipping all aliases. Now that the command structure has a correct 'back-pointer' from a command to its prefix command, we can simplify cmd_show_list by removing its prefix argument and at the same time fix the output inconsistencies and bugs. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-05-15 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * cli/cli-setshow.h (cmd_show_list): Remove prefix argument. * cli/cli-decode.c (do_show_prefix_cmd): Likewise. * command.h (cmd_show_list): Likewise. * dwarf2/index-cache.c (show_index_cache_command): Likewise. * cli/cli-setshow.c (cmd_show_list): Use the prefix to produce the output.

gdb/ChangeLog: Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
2019-10-31Implement convenience functions to examine GDB settings.Philippe Waroquiers1-1/+1
The new convenience functions $_gdb_setting and $_gdb_setting_str provide access to the GDB settings in user-defined commands. Similarly, $_gdb_maint_setting and $_gdb_maint_setting_str provide access to the GDB maintenance settings. The patch was developed following a comment of Eli about the 'set may-call-functions'. Eli said that user-defined functions should have a way to change their behavior according to this setting. Rather than have a specialized $_may_call_functions, this patch implements a general way to access any GDB setting. Compared to doing such access via Python 'gdb.parameter' and/or 'gdb.execute("set somesetting tosomevalue"): * The 'with' command is much better than the above python usage: if the user types C-c or an error happens between the set pagination off and the python "set pagination on", the above python does not restore the original setting. * Effectively, with the "gdb.parameter" python one liner, it is possible to do simple 'if' conditions, such as set and restore pagination. But mixing the "python if" within canned sequence of commands is cumbersome for non trivial combinations. E.g. if several commands have to be done for a certain condition accessed from python, I guess something like will be needed: python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some command") python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some other command") python if __some_setting: gdb.execute("some different command") (without speaking about nested "if-s"). With the convenience function: if $_gdb_setting("some_setting") some command some other command some different command end Integer settings (for example print elements) will also be more difficult to use. For example, a user defined function that scans and prints a linked list might want to use the value of "set print elements" to stop printing the linked list. Doing that by mixing python expression/if is likely doable, but seems not easy with the above one liners. So, in summary, the $_gdb_setting and $_gdb_setting_str avoids to have the heterogeneous mix of python and GDB commands in one single script (and of course, it works even if python is not configured, but that must be an unusual setup I guess). gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-31 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * cli/cli-cmds.c (setting_cmd, value_from_setting) (gdb_setting_internal_fn, gdb_maint_setting_internal_fn) (str_value_from_setting, gdb_setting_str_internal_fn) (gdb_maint_setting_str_internal_fn): New functions.

2019-08-07Make first and last lines of 'command help documentation' consistent.Philippe Waroquiers1-2/+3
With this patch, the help docs now respect 2 invariants: * The first line of a command help is terminated by a '.' character. * The last character of a command help is not a newline character. Note that the changes for the last invariant were done by Tom, as part of : [PATCH] Remove trailing newlines from help text https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-06/msg00050.html but some occurrences have been re-introduced since then. Some help docs had to be rephrased/restructured to respect the above invariants. Before this patch, print_doc_line was printing the first line of a command help documentation, but stopping at the first '.' or ',' character. This was giving inconsistent results : * The first line of command helps was sometimes '.' terminated, sometimes not. * The first line of command helps was not always designed to be readable/understandable/unambiguous when stopping at the first '.' or ',' character. This e.g. created the following inconsistencies/problems: < catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions < catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions < catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names < down-silently -- Same as the `down' command while the new help is: > catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions, when raised. > catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions, when handled. > catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names, groups and/or numbers. > down-silently -- Same as the `down' command, but does not print anything. Also, the command help doc should not be terminated by a newline character, but this was not respected by all commands. The cli-option -OPT framework re-introduced some occurences. So, the -OPT build help framework was changed to not output newlines at the end of %OPTIONS% replacement. This patch changes the help documentations to ensure the 2 invariants given above. It implied to slightly rephrase or restructure some help docs. Based on the above invariants, print_doc_line (called by 'apropos' and 'help' commands to print the first line of a command help) now outputs the full first line of a command help. This all results in a lot of small changes in the produced help docs. There are less code changes than changes in the help docs, as a lot of docs are produced by some code (e.g. the remote packet usage settings). gdb/ChangeLog 2019-08-07 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * cli/cli-decode.h (print_doc_line): Add for_value_prefix argument. * cli/cli-decode.c (print_doc_line): Likewise.

2019-07-03Introduce the "with" commandPedro Alves1-35/+39
( See original discussion and prototype here: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-05/msg00570.html ) (gdb) help with Temporarily set SETTING to VALUE, run COMMAND, and restore SETTING. Usage: with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND] Usage: w SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND] With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command. SETTING is any setting you can change with the "set" subcommands. E.g.: with language pascal -- print obj with print elements unlimited -- print obj As can be seen above, the "with" command is just like "set", but instead of setting the setting permanently, it sets the setting, runs a command and then restores the setting. (gdb) p g_s $1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3} (gdb) with language ada -- print g_s $2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3) Warning: the current language does not match this frame. (gdb) show language The current source language is "auto; currently c". (gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object on -- print 1 $3 = 1 You can shorten things a bit though, as long as unambiguous. So this: (gdb) with print elements 100 -- with print object off -- print 1 is the same as: (gdb) w p el 100 -- w p o 0 -- p 1 Note that the patch adds a "w" alias for "with", as "w" is not currently taken: (gdb) w Ambiguous command "w": watch, wh, whatis, where, while, while-stepping, winheight, ws. Let me know if you'd prefer to reserve "w" for one of the other commands above. IMHO, this command will end up being used frequently enough that it deserves the "w" shorthand. A nice feature is that this is fully integrated with TAB-completion: (gdb) with p[TAB] pagination print prompt python (gdb) with print [TAB] address max-depth static-members array max-symbolic-offset symbol array-indexes null-stop symbol-filename asm-demangle object symbol-loading demangle pascal_static-members thread-events elements pretty type entry-values raw union frame-arguments repeats vtbl inferior-events sevenbit-strings (gdb) with print [TAB] (gdb) with print elements unlimited -- thread apply all -[TAB] -ascending -c -q -s (gdb) with print elements unlimited -- print -[TAB] -address -max-depth -repeats -vtbl -array -null-stop -static-members -array-indexes -object -symbol -elements -pretty -union The main advantage of this new command compared to command options, like the new "print -OPT", is that this command works with any setting, and, it works nicely when you want to override a setting while running a user-defined command, like: (gdb) with print pretty -- usercmd The disadvantage is that it isn't as compact or easy to type. I think of command options and this command as complementary. I think that even with this new command, it makes sense to continue developing the command options in the direction of exposing most-oft-used settings as command options. Inspired by Philippe's "/" command proposal, if no command is specified, then the last command is re-invoked, under the overridden setting: (gdb) p g_s $1 = {a = 1, b = 2, c = 3} (gdb) with language ada $2 = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3) Warning: the current language does not match this frame. Note: "with" requires "--" to separate the setting from the command. It might be possible to do without that, but, I haven't tried it yet, and I think that this can go in without it. We can always downgrade to making "--" optional if we manage to make it work. On to the patch itself, the implementation of the command is simpler than one might expect. A few details: - I factored out a bit from pipe_command into repeat_previous directly, because otherwise I'd need to copy&paste the same code and same error message in the with command. - The parse_cli_var_uinteger / parse_cli_var_zuinteger_unlimited / do_set_command changes are necessary since we can now pass an empty string as argument. - do_show_command was split in two, as a FIXME comment suggests, but for a different reason: we need to get a string version of a "set" command's value, and we already had code for that in do_show_command. That code is now factored out to the new get_setshow_command_value_string function. - There's a new "maint with" command added too: (gdb) help maint with Like "with", but works with "maintenance set" variables. Usage: maintenance with SETTING [VALUE] [-- COMMAND] With no COMMAND, repeats the last executed command. SETTING is any setting you can change with the "maintenance set" subcommands. "with" and "maint with" share 99% of the implementation. This might be useful on its own, but it's also useful for testing, since with this, we can use the "maint set/show test-settings" settings for exercising the "with" machinery with all the command type variants (all enum var_types). This is done in the new gdb/base/with.exp testcase. The documentation bits are originally based on Philippe's docs for the "/" command, hence the attribution in the ChangeLog. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-07-03 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * NEWS (New commands): Mention "with" and "maint with". * cli/cli-cmds.c (with_command_1, with_command_completer_1) (with_command, with_command_completer): New.

2019-06-13Introduce generic command options frameworkPedro Alves1-117/+163
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.

2019-06-13boolean/auto-boolean commands, make "o" ambiguousPedro Alves1-5/+10
We currently accept "o" with boolean/auto-boolean commands, taking it to mean "on". But "o" is ambiguous, between "on" and "off". I can't imagine why assuming the user wanted to type "on" is a good idea, it might have been a typo. This commit makes gdb error out. We now get: (gdb) maint test-settings set boolean o "on" or "off" expected. (gdb) maint test-settings set auto-boolean o "on", "off" or "auto" expected. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-06-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cli/cli-setshow.c (parse_auto_binary_operation) (parse_cli_boolean_value): Don't allow "o". gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2019-06-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.base/settings.exp (test-boolean, test-auto-boolean): Check that "o" is ambiguous.
2019-06-13Fix "set enum-command value junk"Pedro Alves1-0/+4
With enum commands, we currently fail to notice junk after the value. Currently: (gdb) set print entry-values compact foo (gdb) show print entry-values foo Printing of function arguments at function entry is "compact". After this fix: (gdb) set print entry-values compact foo Junk after item "compact": foo gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-06-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cli/cli-setshow.c (do_set_command) <var_enum>: Detect junk after item.
2019-06-13Allow "unlimited" abbreviationsPedro Alves1-4/+8
Currently we can abbreviate "on/off/enable/disable/yes/no" in boolean settings, (gdb) set non-stop of (gdb) set non-stop en we can abbreviate the items of enumeration commands, (gdb) set print frame-arguments scal (gdb) set scheduler-locking rep but we cannot abbreviate "unlimited" in integer commands. (gdb) set print elements u No symbol "u" in current context. This commit fixes that. Testcases will be in gdb.base/settings.exp and gdb.base/options.exp, in following patches. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-06-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cli/cli-setshow.c (is_unlimited_literal): Allow abbreviations.
2019-01-01Update copyright year range in all GDB files.Joel Brobecker1-1/+1
This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py script. Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid copyright header (gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc). As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header was sent to gcc-patches first. gdb/ChangeLog: Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
2018-03-19Convert observers to C++Tom Tromey1-6/+6
This converts observers from using a special source-generating script to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11 by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change eliminates the need for a clean rebuild). Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template function.

2017-09-11Rename _const functions to use overloading insteadTom Tromey1-1/+1
This renames a few functions -- skip_spaces_const, skip_to_space_const, get_number_const, extract_arg_const -- to drop the "_const" suffix and instead rely on overloading. This makes future const fixes simpler by reducing the number of lines that must be changed. I think it is also not any less clear, as all these functions have the same interface as their non-const versions by design. Furthermore there's an example of using an overload in-tree already, namely check_for_argument. This patch was largely created using some perl one-liners; then a few fixes were applied by hand. ChangeLog 2017-09-11 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * common/common-utils.h (skip_to_space): Remove macro, redeclare as function.
