2017-03-28arc: Add prologue analysisAnton Kolesov2-2/+5
Add a prologue analysis that recognizes all instructions that may happen in compiler-generated prologue, including various stores, core register moves, subtraction and ENTER_S instruction that does a lot of prologue actions through microcode. Testcases cover various prologue scenarios, including instructions that are spread across multiple 16-bit encodings (for example there are 7 encodings of store instruction). gdb/ChangeLog: yyyy-mm-dd Anton Kolesov <anton.kolesov@synopsys.com> * arc-tdep.c (arc_frame_cache): Add support for prologue analysis.

2017-03-28arc: Add disassembler helperAnton Kolesov2-0/+8
Add disassembler helper for GDB, that uses opcodes structure arc_instruction and adds convenience functions to handle instruction operands. This interface solves at least those problems with arc_instruction: * Some instructions, like "push_s", have implicit operands which are not directly present in arc_instruction. * Operands of particular meaning, like branch/jump targets, have various locations and meaning depending on type of branch/target. * Access to operand value is abstracted into a separate function, so callee code shouldn't bother if operand value is an immediate value or in a register. Testcases included in this commit are fairly limited - they test exclusively branch instructions, something that will be used in software single stepping. Most of the other parts of this disassembler helper are tested during prologue analysis testing. gdb/ChangeLog: yyyy-mm-dd Anton Kolesov <anton.kolesov@synopsys.com> * configure.tgt: Add arc-insn.o. * arc-tdep.c (arc_delayed_print_insn): Make non-static.

This changes the return type of "gdb.BtraceInstruction.data ()" from "memoryview" to "buffer" on Python 2.7 and below, similar to what "gdb.Inferior.read_memory ()" does.
2017-03-20Add rvalue reference tests and docsArtemiy Volkov1-3/+3
This patch adds tests for the initial rvalue reference support patchset. All of the new tests are practically mirrored regular references tests and, except for the demangler ones, are introduced in new files, which are set to be compiled with -std=gnu++11. Tested are printing of rvalue reference types and values, rvalue reference parameters in function overloading, demangling of function names containing rvalue reference parameters, casts to rvalue reference types, application of the sizeof operator to rvalue reference types and values, and support for rvalue references within the gdb python module. gdb/ChnageLog PR gdb/14441 * NEWS: Mention support for rvalue references in GDB and python. * doc/gdb.texinfo (C Plus Plus Expressions): Mention that GDB supports both lvalue and rvalue references. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog PR gdb/14441 * gdb.cp/demangle.exp: Add rvalue reference tests. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-casts.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-casts.exp: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-overload.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-overload.exp: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-params.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-params.exp: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-sizeof.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-sizeof.exp: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-types.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-types.exp: New file. * gdb.python/py-rvalue-ref-value-cc.cc: New file. * gdb.python/py-rvalue-ref-value-cc.exp: New file.
2017-03-20Support rvalue references in the gdb python module (includes doc/)Artemiy Volkov1-0/+4
This patch adds the ability to inspect rvalue reference types and values using the gdb python module. This is achieved by creating two wrappers for valpy_reference_value(), using the ReferenceExplorer class to handle the objects of rvalue reference types and placing necessary checks for a TYPE_CODE_RVALUE_REF type code next to the checks for a TYPE_CODE_REF type code. gdb/ChangeLog PR gdb/14441 * doc/python.texi (Types in Python): Add TYPE_CODE_RVALUE_REF to table of constants. * python/lib/gdb/command/explore.py: Support exploring values of rvalue reference types. * python/lib/gdb/types.py: Implement get_basic_type() for rvalue reference types. * python/py-type.c (pyty_codes) <TYPE_CODE_RVALUE_REF>: New constant. * python/py-value.c (valpy_getitem): Add an rvalue reference check.

2017-03-20Add -file-list-shared-libraries MI commandMarc-Andre Laperle2-7/+34
This change adds the MI equivalent for the "info sharedlibrary" command. The command was already partially documented but ignored as it was not implemented. The new MI command works similarly to the CLI command, taking an optional regular expression as an argument and outputting the library information. I included a test for the new command in mi-solib.exp. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (gdb/mi Symbol Query Commands): Document new MI command file-list-shared-libraries (GDB/MI Async Records): Update documentation of library-loaded with new field. gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Add an entry about new '-file-list-shared-libraries' command. * mi/mi-cmd-file.c (mi_cmd_file_list_shared_libraries): New function definition. * mi/mi-cmds.c (mi_cmds): Add -file-list-shared-libraries command. * mi/mi-cmds.h (mi_cmd_file_list_shared_libraries): New function declaration. * mi/mi-interp.c (mi_output_solib_attribs): New Function. * mi/mi-interp.h: New file. * solib.c (info_sharedlibrary_command): Replace for loop with ALL_SO_LIBS macro * solib.h (update_solib_list): New function declaration.

2017-03-07amd64-mpx: initialize BND register before performing inferior calls.Walfred Tedeschi2-0/+34
This patch initializes the BND registers before executing the inferior call. BND registers can be in arbitrary values at the moment of the inferior call. In case the function being called uses as part of the parameters BND register, e.g. when passing a pointer as parameter, the current value of the register will be used. This can cause boundary violations that are not due to a real bug or even desired by the user. In this sense the best to be done is set the BND registers to allow access to the whole memory, i.e. initialized state, before pushing the inferior call. 2017-03-07 Walfred Tedeschi <walfred.tedeschi@intel.com> gdb/ChangeLog: * i387-tdep.h (i387_reset_bnd_regs): Add function definition. * i387-tdep.c (i387_reset_bnd_regs): Add function implementation. * i386-tdep.c (i386_push_dummy_call): Call i387_reset_bnd_regs. * amd64-tdep (amd64_push_dummy_call): Call i387_reset_bnd_regs. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * i386-mpx-call.c: New file. * i386-mpx-call.exp: New file. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * Memory Protection Extensions: Add information about inferior calls.

2017-02-17Add support for Intel PKRU register to GDB and GDBserver.Michael Sturm1-0/+4
This patch adds support for the registers added by the Memory Protection Keys for Userspace (PKU aka PKEYs) feature. Native and remote debugging are covered by this patch. The XSAVE area is extended with a new state containing the 32-bit wide PKRU register. The new register is added to amd64-avx-mpx_avx512-* tdesc, thus it is renamed accordingly. Also, respective xstate mask X86_XSTATE_AVX_MPX_AVX512_MASK is renamed to X86_XSTATE_AVX_MPX_AVX512_PKU_MASK to reflect the new feature set it supports.

2017-01-20Add command to erase all flash memory regionsLuis Machado2-0/+38
Changes in v4: - Replaced phex call with hex_string. Changes in v3: - Addressed comments by Pedro. - Output of memory region size now in hex format. - Misc formatting fixups. - Addressed Simon's comments on formatting. - Adjusted command text in the manual entry. - Fixed up ChangeLog. - Renamed flash_erase_all_command to flash_erase_command. Changes in v2: - Added NEWS entry. - Fixed long lines. - Address printing with paddress. Years ago we contributed flash programming patches upstream. The following patch is a leftover one that complements that functionality by adding a new command to erase all reported flash memory blocks. The command is most useful when we're dealing with flash-enabled targets (mostly bare-metal) and we need to reset the board for some reason. The wiping out of flash memory regions should help the target come up with a known clean state from which the user can load a new image and resume debugging. It is convenient enough to do this from the debugger, and there is also an MI command to expose this functionality to the IDE's. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: 2017-01-20 Mike Wrighton <mike_wrighton@codesourcery.com> Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com> * gdb.texinfo (-target-flash-erase): New MI command description.

2016-12-02Support an "unlimited" number of user-defined argumentsPedro Alves2-3/+8
New in v2: - A few adjustments / simplifications were possible now that we require C++11: . Use std::unique_ptr to make the user_args_stack std::vector own its elements: static std::vector<std::unique_ptr<user_args>> user_args_stack; . use vector::emplace_back to construct elements directly in the corresponding vectors. . use std::to_string instead of adding a gdb::to_string replacement. - Now includes a test. Docs/NEWS are unchanged from v1 and have already been approved. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I recently wrote a user-defined command that could benefit from supporting an unlimited number of arguments: http://palves.net/list-active-signal-handlers-with-gdb/ E.g., 'info signal-dispositions 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11' However, we currently only support up to 10 arguments passed to user-defined commands ($arg0..$arg9). I can't find a good reason for that, other than "old code with hard coded limits". This patch removes that limit and modernizes the code along the way: - Makes the user_args struct a real C++ class that uses std::vector for storage. - Removes the "next" pointer from within user_args and uses a std::vector to maintain a stack instead. - Adds a new RAII-based scoped_user_args_level class to help push/pop user args in the stack instead of using a cleanup. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-12-02 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * NEWS: Mention that user commands now accept an unlimited number of arguments. * cli/cli-script.c: Include <vector>.

2016-12-02Fix PR 20559 - "eval" command and $arg0...$arg9/$argc substitutionPedro Alves2-0/+23
It'd be handy to be able to iterate over command arguments in user-defined commands, in order to support optional arguments ($arg0..$argN). I thought I could make it work with "eval", but alas, it doesn't work currently. E.g., with: define test set $i = 0 while $i < $argc eval "print $arg%d", $i set $i = $i + 1 end end we get: (gdb) test 1 $1 = void (gdb) test 1 2 3 $2 = void $3 = void $4 = void (gdb) The problem is that "eval" doesn't do user-defined command arguments substitution after expanding its own argument. This patch fixes that, which makes the example above work: (gdb) test 1 $1 = 1 (gdb) test 1 2 3 $2 = 1 $3 = 2 $4 = 3 (gdb) New test included, similar the above, but also exercises expanding $argc. I think this is likely to simplify many scripts out there, so I'm adding an example to the manual and mentioning it in NEWS as well. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-12-02 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR cli/20559 * NEWS: Mention "eval" expands user-defined command arguments. * cli/cli-script.c (execute_control_command): Adjust to rename.

2016-11-30Makefiles: Disable suffix rules and implicit rulesSimon Marchi2-0/+7
Since we don't use suffix rules nor implicit rules in gdb, we can disable them. The advantage is a slightly faster make [1]. Here are some numbers about the speedup. I ran this on my trusty old Intel Q6600, so the time numbers are probably higher than what you'd get on any recent hardware. I ran "make" in the gdb/ directory of an already built repository (configured with --enable-targets=all). I recorded the time of execution (average of 5). I then ran "make -d" and recorded the number of printed lines, which gives a rough idea of the number of operations done. I compared the following configurations, to see the impact of both the empty .SUFFIXES target and the empty pattern rules, as well as running "make -r", which can be considered the "ideal" case. A - baseline B - baseline + .SUFFIXES C - baseline + pattern rules D - baseline + .SUFFIXES + pattern rules E - baseline + make -r config | time (s) | "make -d" ----------------------------- A | 5.74 | 2396643 B | 1.19 | 298469 C | 2.81 | 1266573 D | 1.13 | 245489 E | 1.01 | 163914 We can see that the empty .SUFFIXES target has a bigger impact than the empty pattern rules, but still it doesn't hurt to disable the implicit pattern rules as well. There are still some mentions of implicit rules I can't get rid of in the "make -d" output. For example, it's trying to build .c files from .w files: Looking for an implicit rule for '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.c'. Trying pattern rule with stem 'infrun'. Trying implicit prerequisite '/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/infrun.w'. and trying to build Makefile.in from a bunch of extensions: Looking for an implicit rule for 'Makefile.in'. Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'. Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.o'. Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'. Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.c'. Trying pattern rule with stem 'Makefile.in'. Trying implicit prerequisite 'Makefile.in.cc'. ... many more ... If somebody knows how to disable them, we can do it, but at this point the returns are minimal, so it is not that important. I verified that both in-tree and out-of-tree builds work. [1] Switching from explicit rules to pattern rules for files in subdirectories actually made it slower, so this is kind of a way to redeem myself. But it the end it's faster than it was previously, so it was all worth it. :) gdb/ChangeLog: * disable-implicit-rules.mk: New file. * Makefile.in: Include disable-implicit-rules.mk. * data-directory/Makefile.in: Likewise. * gnulib/Makefile.in: Likewise. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in: Likewise. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in: Include disable-implicit-rules.mk. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in: Include disable-implicit-rules.mk.

2016-10-03Emit inferior, thread and frame selection events to all UIsAntoine Tremblay3-14/+34
With this patch, when an inferior, thread or frame is explicitly selected by the user, notifications will appear on all CLI and MI UIs. When a GDB console is integrated in a front-end, this allows the front-end to follow a selection made by the user ont he CLI, and it informs the user about selection changes made behind the scenes by the front-end. This patch addresses PR gdb/20487. In order to communicate frame changes to the front-end, this patch adds a new field to the =thread-selected event for the selected frame. The idea is that since inferior/thread/frame can be seen as a composition, it makes sense to send them together in the same event. The vision would be to eventually send the inferior information as well, if we find that it's needed, although the "=thread-selected" event would be ill-named for that job. Front-ends need to handle this new field if they want to follow the frame selection changes that originate from the console. The format of the frame attribute is the same as what is found in the *stopped events. Here's a detailed example for each command and the events they generate: thread ------ 1. CLI command: thread 1.3 MI event: =thread-selected,id="3",frame={...} 2. MI command: -thread-select 3 CLI event: [Switching to thread 1.3 ...] 3. MI command (CLI-in-MI): thread 1.3 MI event/reply: &"thread 1.3\n" ~"#0 child_sub_function () ... =thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="0",...} ^done frame ----- 1. CLI command: frame 1 MI event: =thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1",...} 2. MI command: -stack-select-frame 1 CLI event: #1 0x00000000004007f0 in child_function... 3. MI command (CLI-in-MI): frame 1 MI event/reply: &"frame 1\n" ~"#1 0x00000000004007f9 in ..." =thread-selected,id="3",frame={level="1"...} ^done inferior -------- Inferior selection events only go from the console to MI, since there's no way to select the inferior in pure MI. 1. CLI command: inferior 2 MI event: =thread-selected,id="3" Note that if the user selects an inferior that is not started or exited, the MI doesn't receive a notification. Since there is no threads to select, the =thread-selected event does not apply... 2. MI command (CLI-in-MI): inferior 2 MI event/reply: &"inferior 2\n" ~"[Switching to inferior 2 ...]" =thread-selected,id="4",frame={level="0"...} ^done Internal implementation detail: this patch makes it possible to suppress notifications caused by a CLI command, like what is done in mi-interp.c. This means that it's now possible to use the add_com_suppress_notification function to register a command with some event suppressed. It is used to implement the select-frame command in this patch. The function command_notifies_uscc_observer was added to extract the rather complicated logical expression from the if statement. It is also now clearer what that logic does: if the command used by the user already notifies the user_selected_context_changed observer, there is not need to notify it again. It therefore protects again emitting the event twice. No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 x86 with target boards unix and native-extended-gdbserver. gdb/ChangeLog: YYYY-MM-DD Antoine Tremblay <antoine.tremblay@ericsson.com> YYYY-MM-DD Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@ericsson.com> PR gdb/20487 * NEWS: Mention new frame field of =thread-selected event. * cli/cli-decode.c (add_cmd): Initialize c->suppress_notification.

2016-09-28Small improvements to the remote protocol manualTom Tromey2-27/+51
I was reading the gdb RSP manual recently and I found a number of small problems in the documentation. This patch attempts to improve these areas. Specfically: * The term "memory breakpoint" is used only in this section of the manual, and there inconsistently. I found this term confusing -- initially I thought it might be a watchpoint. This patch changes it to use the term "software breakpoint", which is used in the rest of the manual. * The z0 packet didn't document how "kind" was written. And, it had a stray link to the architecture-specific protocol details node. This patch moves this link to a better spot. * The z1 patch didn't document that it accepts cmd_list. * I couldn't find any text saying what response is given to a command like vCont in non-stop mode. The answer is that OK is sent, and then a stop reply is sent as a notification. This patch adds a note about this. * The "create" stop reply did not document that the "R" argument is ignored. * The "W", "X", and "w" packets did not document how the "AA" part is formatted. * The %Stop notification example said "%%Stop", but I think this is incorrect. 2016-09-28 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.texinfo (Packets) <z0>: Use "software breakpoint" rather than "memory breakpoint". Further document "kind". Move protocol-details link earlier. <z1>: Document the cmd_list argument. Fix typo. <g>: Remove incorrect sentence. (Stop Reply Packets): Document "OK" response to requests when in non-stop mode. <swbreak>: Use "software breakpoint" rather than "memory breakpoint". <create>: Document that "R" is ignored. <W, X, w>: Document formatting of "AA".

2016-09-21arc: New Synopsys ARC portAnton Kolesov2-0/+72
ARC is a family of licensable processors developed by Synopsys. This is an initial patch that doesn't yet support some of the features, that are already available in Synopsys' fork of GDB, namely: * longjmp support * signal frame handling * prologue analysis * Linux targets support * native Linux support ARC cores are configurable and extensible, which means from debugger perspective that some registers and debug capabilities are optional, therefore it is up to the GDB stub to determine exact list of register available on target and supply it to GDB via XML target descriptions. List of registers that is known to GDB and is required is intentionally kept small to simplify requirements to GDB stub and implementation of a GDB client. gdb/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in (ALL_TARGET_OBS): Add arc-tdep.o.

This patch allows the user to set the inferior-tty to "empty", in order to come back to the default behaviour of using the same tty as gdb is using. This is already supported in MI (and tested in gdb.mi/mi-basics.exp). I added a new test, set-inferior-tty.exp, where I test only the setting and unsetting of the parameter. It would be nice to actually test that the inferior output properly goes to the separate tty, but that will be for another day. gdb/ChangeLog: * infcmd.c (set_inferior_io_terminal): Set inferior terminal to NULL if terminal_name is an empty string.

This patch adds some breakpoint events to Python. In particular, there is a creation event that is emitted when a breakpoint is created; a modification event that is emitted when a breakpoint changes somehow; and a deletion event that is emitted when a breakpoint is deleted. In this patch, the event's payload is the breakpoint itself. I considered making a new event type to hold the breakpoint, but I didn't see a need. Still, I thought I would mention this as a spot where some other choice is possible.

2016-07-12PR python/19293 - invalidate frame cache when unwinders changeTom Tromey2-0/+15
PR python/19293 notes that when a Python unwinder is disabled, the frame cache is not invalidated. This means that disabling an unwinder doesn't have any immediate effect -- but in my experience it's often the case that I want to enable or disable an unwinder in order to see what happens. This patch adds a new gdb.invalidate_cached_frames function and arranges for the relevant bits of library code to call it. I've only partially documented this function, considering a warning sufficient without going into all the reasons ordinary code should not call it. The name of the new function was taken from a comment in frame.h next to reinit_frame_cache. No new test as I think the updates to the existing test are sufficient to show that the code is working as intended.

2016-06-09Add negative repeat count to 'x' commandToshihito Kikuchi2-1/+18
This change adds support for specifying a negative repeat count to all the formats of the 'x' command to examine memory backward. A new testcase 'examine-backward' is added to cover this new feature. Here's the example output from the new feature: <format 'i'> (gdb) bt #0 Func1 (n=42, p=0x40432e "hogehoge") at main.cpp:5 #1 0x00000000004041fa in main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffdff8) at main.cpp:19 (gdb) x/-4i 0x4041fa 0x4041e5 <main(int, char**)+11>: mov %rsi,-0x10(%rbp) 0x4041e9 <main(int, char**)+15>: lea 0x13e(%rip),%rsi 0x4041f0 <main(int, char**)+22>: mov $0x2a,%edi 0x4041f5 <main(int, char**)+27>: callq 0x404147 <format 'x'> (gdb) x/-4xw 0x404200 0x4041f0 <main(int, char**)+22>: 0x00002abf 0xff4de800 0x76e8ffff 0xb8ffffff (gdb) x/-4 0x4041e0 <main(int, char**)+6>: 0x7d8910ec 0x758948fc 0x358d48f0 0x0000013e gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Mention that GDB now supports a negative repeat count in the 'x' command. * printcmd.c (decode_format): Allow '-' in the parameter "string_ptr" to accept a negative repeat count.
