The function construct_inferior_arguments (gdbsupport/common-inferior.cc)
currently escapes all special shell characters. After this commit
there will be two "levels" of quoting:
1. The current "full" quoting, where all posix shell special
characters are quoted, and
2. a new "reduced" quoting, where only the characters that GDB sees
as special (quotes and whitespace) are quoted.
After this, almost all construct_inferior_arguments calls will use the
"full" quoting, which is the current quoting. The "reduced" quoting
will be used in this commit to restore the behaviour that was lost in
the previous commit (more details below).
In the future, the reduced quoting will be useful for some additional
inferior argument that I have planned. I already posted my full
inferior argument work here:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/cover.1730731085.git.aburgess@redhat.com
But that series is pretty long, and wasn't getting reviewed, so I'm
posted the series in parts now.
Before the previous commit, GDB behaved like this:
$ gdb -eiex 'set startup-with-shell off' --args /tmp/exec '$FOO'
(gdb) show args
Argument list to give program being debugged when it is started is "$FOO".
Notice that with 'startup-with-shell' off, the argument was left as
just '$FOO'. But after the previous commit, this changed to:
$ gdb -eiex 'set startup-with-shell off' --args /tmp/exec '$FOO'
(gdb) show args
Argument list to give program being debugged when it is started is "\$FOO".
Now the '$' is escaped with a backslash. This commit restores the
original behaviour, as this is (currently) the only way to unquoted
shell special characters into arguments from the GDB command line.
The series that I listed above includes a new command line option for
GDB which provides a better approach for controlling the quoting of
special shell characters, but that work requires these patches to be
merged first.
I've split out the core of construct_inferior_arguments into the new
function escape_characters, which takes a set of characters to escape.
Then the two functions escape_shell_characters and
escape_gdb_characters call escape_characters with the appropriate
character sets.
Finally, construct_inferior_arguments, now takes a boolean which
indicates if we should perform full shell escaping, or just perform
the reduced escaping.
I've updated all uses of construct_inferior_arguments to pass a
suitable value to indicate what escaping to perform (mostly just
'true', but one case in main.c is different), also I've updated
inferior::set_args to take the same boolean flag, and pass it through
to construct_inferior_arguments.

PR python/32163 points out that various types provided by gdb are not
added to the gdb module, so they aren't available for interactive
inspection. I think this is just an oversight.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new helper function that
both readies the type and then adds it to the appropriate module. The
patch also poisons PyType_Ready, the idea being to avoid this bug in
the future.

This removes the embedded 'if' from GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and
GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION. I believe this 'if' was necessary with
the old gdb try/catch macros, but it no longer is: these should only
ever be called from a 'catch' block, where it's already known that an
exception was thrown.
Simon pointed out, though, that in a few spots, these were in facts
called outside of 'catch' blocks. This patch cleans up these spots.
I also found one spot where a redundant 'return nullptr' could be
removed.

We currently pass frames to function by value, as `frame_info_ptr`.
This is somewhat expensive:
- the size of `frame_info_ptr` is 64 bytes, which is a bit big to pass
by value
- the constructors and destructor link/unlink the object in the global
`frame_info_ptr::frame_list` list. This is an `intrusive_list`, so
it's not so bad: it's just assigning a few points, there's no memory
allocation as if it was `std::list`, but still it's useless to do
that over and over.
As suggested by Tom Tromey, change many function signatures to accept
`const frame_info_ptr &` instead of `frame_info_ptr`.
Some functions reassign their `frame_info_ptr` parameter, like:
void
the_func (frame_info_ptr frame)
{
for (; frame != nullptr; frame = get_prev_frame (frame))
{
...
}
}
I wondered what to do about them, do I leave them as-is or change them
(and need to introduce a separate local variable that can be
re-assigned). I opted for the later for consistency. It might not be
clear why some functions take `const frame_info_ptr &` while others take
`frame_info_ptr`. Also, if a function took a `frame_info_ptr` because
it did re-assign its parameter, I doubt that we would think to change it
to `const frame_info_ptr &` should the implementation change such that
it doesn't need to take `frame_info_ptr` anymore. It seems better to
have a simple rule and apply it everywhere.

The gdb.Objfile, gdb.Progspace, and gdb.Type Python types already have
a __dict__ attribute, which allows users to create user defined
attributes within the objects. This is useful if the user wants to
cache information within an object.
This commit adds the same functionality to the gdb.Inferior type.
After this commit there is a new gdb.Inferior.__dict__ attribute,
which is a dictionary. A user can, for example, do this:
(gdb) pi
>>> i = gdb.selected_inferior()
>>> i._user_attribute = 123
>>> i._user_attribute
123
>>>
There's a new test included.

Many object types now have a __repr__() function implementation. A
common pattern is that, if an object is invalid, we print its
representation as: <TYPENAME (invalid)>.
I thought it might be a good idea to move the formatting of this
specific representation into a utility function, and then update all
of our existing code to call the new function.
The only place where I haven't made use of the new function is in
unwind_infopy_repr, where we currently return a different string.
This case is a little different as the UnwindInfo is invalid because
it references a frame, and it is the frame itself which is invalid.
That said, I think it would be fine to switch to using the standard
format; if the UnwindInfo references an invalid frame, then the
UnwindInfo is itself invalid. But changing this would be an actual
change in behaviour, while all the other changes in this commit are
just refactoring.

This function is just a wrapper around the current inferior's gdbarch.
I find that having that wrapper just obscures where the arch is coming
from, and that it's often used as "I don't know which arch to use so
I'll use this magical target_gdbarch function that gets me an arch" when
the arch should in fact come from something in the context (a thread,
objfile, symbol, etc). I think that removing it and inlining
`current_inferior ()->arch ()` everywhere will make it a bit clearer
where that arch comes from and will trigger people into reflecting
whether this is the right place to get the arch or not.

The new_objfile observer is currently used to indicate both when a new
objfile is added to program space (when passed non-nullptr) and when all
objfiles of a program space were just removed (when passed nullptr).
I think this is confusing (and Andrew apparently thinks so too [1]).
Add a new "all_objfiles_removed" observer to remove the second role from
"new_objfile".
Some existing users of new_objfile do nothing if the passed objfile is
nullptr. For them, we can simply drop the nullptr check. For others,
add a new all_objfiles_removed callback, and refactor things a bit to
keep the existing behavior as much as possible.
Some callbacks relied on current_program_space, and following
the refactoring now use either objfile->pspace or the pspace passed to
all_objfiles_removed. I think this should be relatively safe, and in
general a step in the right direction.
On the notify side, I found only one call site to change from
new_objfile to all_objfiles_removed, in clear_symtab_users. It is not
entirely clear to me that this is entirely correct. clear_symtab_users
appears to be called in spots that don't remove all objfiles
(functions finish_new_objfile, remove_symbol_file_command, reread_symbols,
do_module_cleanups). But I think that this patch at least makes the
current code clearer.

This commit fixes this by moving the thread exit printing to common
code instead, triggered from within delete_thread (or rather,
set_thread_exited).
There's one wrinkle, though. While most targest want to print:
[Thread ... exited]
the Windows target wants to print:
[Thread ... exited with code <exit_code>]
... and sometimes wants to suppress the notification for the main
thread. To address that, this commits adds a delete_thread_with_code
function, only used by that target (so far).

Andrew reported that the previous change to gdb.Inferior.read_memory &
friends introducing scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory broke
gdb.dap/stop-at-main.exp. This is also reported as PR dap/30644.
The root of the problem is that all the methods that now use
scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory cause GDB to crash with a
failed assert if they are run on an inferior that is not yet started.
E.g.:
(gdb) python i = gdb.selected_inferior ()
(gdb) python i.read_memory (4,4)
gdb/thread.c:626: internal-error: any_thread_of_inferior: Assertion `inf->pid != 0' failed.
This patch fixes the problem by removing
scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory's ctor ptid parameter and
the any_thread_of_inferior calls completely, and making
scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory switch inferior_ptid to a
pid ptid.
I was a little worried that some port might be assuming inferior_ptid
points at a thread in the xfer_partial memory access routines. We
know that anything that supports forks must not assume that, due to
how detach_breakpoints works. I looked at a number of xfer_partial
implementations, and didn't see anything that is looking at
inferior_ptid in a way that would misbehave. I'm thinking that we
could go forward with this and just fix ports if they break.
While on some ports like on AMD GPU we have thread-specific address
spaces, and so when accessing memory for those address spaces, we must
have the right thread context (via inferior_ptid) selected, in
Inferior.read_memory, we only have the inferior to work with, so this
API as is can't be used to access thread-specific address spaces.
IOW, it can only be used to access the global address space that is
visible to both the CPU and the GPUs.
In proc-service.c:ps_xfer_memory, the other spot using
scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory, we're always accessing
per-inferior memory.
If we end up using scoped_restore_current_inferior_for_memory later to
set up the context to read memory from a specific thread, then we can
add an alternative ctor that takes a thread_info pointer, and make
inferior_ptid point to the thread, for example.
New test added to gdb.python/py-inferior.exp, exercising
Inferior.read_memory without execution.
No regressions on native and extended-gdbserver x86_64 GNU/Linux.

Tom:
Tom requested that I should probably just emit the thread object;
I ran into two issues for this, which I could not resolve in this patch;
1 - The Thread Object (the python type) checks it's own validity
by doing a comparison of it's `thread_info* thread` to nullptr. This
means that any access of it's attributes may (probably, since we are
in "async" land) throw Python exceptions because the thread has been
removed from the thread object. Therefore I've decided in v3 of this
patch to just emit most of the same fields that gdb.InferiorThread has, namely
global_num, name, num and ptid (the 3-attribute tuple provided by
gdb.InferiorThread.ptid).
2 - A python user can hold a global reference to an exiting thread. Thus
in order to have a ThreadExit event that can provide attribute access
reliably (both as a global reference, but also inside the thread exit
handler, as we can never guarantee that it's executed _before_ the
thread_info pointer is removed from the gdbpy thread object),
the `thread_info *` thread pointer must not be null. However, this
comes at the cost of gdb.InferiorThread believing it is "valid" - which means,
that if a user holds takes a global reference to that
exiting event thread object, they can some time later do `t.switch()` at which
point GDB will 'explode' so to speak.
v2:
Fixed white space issues and NULL/nullptr stuff,
as requested by Tom Tromey.
v1:
Currently no event is emitted for a thread exit.
This adds this functionality by emitting a new gdb.ThreadExitedEvent.
It currently provides four attributes:
- global_num: The GDB assigned global thread number
- num: the per-inferior thread number
- name: name of the thread or none if not set
- ptid: the PTID of the thread, a 3-attribute tuple, identical to
InferiorThread.ptid attribute
Added info to docs & the NEWS file as well.
Added test to test suite.

Currently, when we add a new python sub-system to GDB,
e.g. py-inferior.c, we end up having to create a new function like
gdbpy_initialize_inferior, which then has to be called from the
function do_start_initialization in python.c.
In some cases (py-micmd.c and py-tui.c), we have two functions
gdbpy_initialize_*, and gdbpy_finalize_*, with the second being called
from finalize_python which is also in python.c.
This commit proposes a mechanism to manage these initialization and
finalization calls, this means that adding a new Python subsystem will
no longer require changes to python.c or python-internal.h, instead,
the initialization and finalization functions will be registered
directly from the sub-system file, e.g. py-inferior.c, or py-micmd.c.
The initialization and finalization functions are managed through a
new class gdbpy_initialize_file in python-internal.h. This class
contains a single global vector of all the initialization and
finalization functions.
In each Python sub-system we create a new gdbpy_initialize_file
object, the object constructor takes care of registering the two
callback functions.
Now from python.c we can call static functions on the
gdbpy_initialize_file class which take care of walking the callback
list and invoking each callback in turn.
To slightly simplify the Python sub-system files I added a new macro
GDBPY_INITIALIZE_FILE, which hides the need to create an object. We
can now just do this:
GDBPY_INITIALIZE_FILE (gdbpy_initialize_registers);
One possible problem with this change is that there is now no
guaranteed ordering of how the various sub-systems are initialized (or
finalized). To try and avoid dependencies creeping in I have added a
use of the environment variable GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS, this is
the same environment variable used in the generated init.c file.
Just like with init.c, when this environment variable is set we
reverse the list of Python initialization (and finalization)
functions. As there is already a test that starts GDB with the
environment variable set then this should offer some level of
protection against dependencies creeping in - though for full
protection I guess we'd need to run all gdb.python/*.exp tests with
the variable set.
I have tested this patch with the environment variable set, and saw no
regressions, so I think we are fine right now.
One other change of note was for gdbpy_initialize_gdb_readline, this
function previously returned void. In order to make this function
have the correct signature I've updated its return type to int, and we
now return 0 to indicate success.
All of the other initialize (and finalize) functions have been made
static within their respective sub-system files.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

This turns the remaining value_contents functions -- value_contents,
value_contents_all, value_contents_for_printing, and
value_contents_for_printing_const -- into methods of value. It also
converts the static functions require_not_optimized_out and
require_available to be private methods.

The python code maintains a list of threads for each inferior. This
list is implemented as a linked list. When the number of threads grows
high, this implementation can begin to be a performance bottleneck as
finding a particular thread_object in the list has a complexity of O(N).
We see this in ROCgdb[1], a downstream port of GDB for AMDGUP. On
AMDGPU devices, the number of threads can get significantly higher than
on usual GDB workloads.
In some situations, we can reach the end of the inferior process with
GDB still having a substantial list of known threads. While running
target_mourn_inferior, we end up in inferior::clear_thread_list which
iterates over all remaining threads and marks each thread exited. This
fires the gdb::observers::thread_exit observer and eventually
py-inferior.c:set_thread_exited gets called. This function searches in
the linked list with poor performances.
This patch proposes to change the linked list that keeps the per
inferior_object list of thread_objects into a std::unordered_map. This
allows to have the search operation complexity be O(1) on average
instead of O(N).
With this patch, we can complete clear_thread_list in about 2.5 seconds
compared to 10 minutes without it.
Except for the performance change, no user visible change is expected.

This changes GDB to use frame_info_ptr instead of frame_info *
The substitution was done with multiple sequential `sed` commands:
sed 's/^struct frame_info;/class frame_info_ptr;/'
sed 's/struct frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g' - which left some
issues in a few files, that were manually fixed.
sed 's/\<frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g'
sed 's/frame_info_ptr $/frame_info_ptr/g' - used to remove whitespace
problems.
The changed files were then manually checked and some 'sed' changes

This rewrites registry.h, removing all the macros and replacing it
with relatively ordinary template classes. The result is less code
than the previous setup. It replaces large macros with a relatively
straightforward C++ class, and now manages its own cleanup.
The existing type-safe "key" class is replaced with the equivalent
template class. This approach ended up requiring relatively few
changes to the users of the registry code in gdb -- code using the key
system just required a small change to the key's declaration.
All existing users of the old C-like API are now converted to use the
type-safe API. This mostly involved changing explicit deletion
functions to be an operator() in a deleter class.
The old "save/free" two-phase process is removed, and replaced with a
single "free" phase. No existing code used both phases.
The old "free" callbacks took a parameter for the enclosing container
object. However, this wasn't truly needed and is removed here as
well.

Currently, Python code can use event registries to detect when gdb
loads a new objfile, and when gdb clears the objfile list. However,
there's no way to detect the removal of an objfile, say when the
inferior calls dlclose.
This patch adds a gdb.free_objfile event registry and arranges for an
event to be emitted in this case.

New in this version:
- Rebase on master, fix a few more issues that appeared.
python-internal.h contains a number of macros that helped make the code
work with both Python 2 and 3. Remove them and adjust the code to use
the Python 3 functions.

Currently, gdb's Python layer captures the current architecture and
language when "entering" Python code. This has some undesirable
effects, and so this series changes how this is handled.
First, there is code like this:
gdbpy_enter enter_py (python_gdbarch, python_language);
This is incorrect, because both of these are NULL when not otherwise
assigned. This can cause crashes in some cases -- I've added one to
the test suite. (Note that this crasher is just an example, other
ones along the same lines are possible.)
Second, when the language is captured in this way, it means that
Python code cannot affect the current language for its own purposes.
It's reasonable to want to write code like this:
gdb.execute('set language mumble')
... stuff using the current language
gdb.execute('set language previous-value')
However, this won't actually work, because the language is captured on
entry. I've added a test to show this as well.
This patch changes gdb to try to avoid capturing the current values.
The Python concept of the current gdbarch is only set in those few
cases where a non-default value is computed or needed; and the
language is not captured at all -- instead, in the cases where it's
required, the current language is temporarily changed.

Commit 72ee03ff58 fixed a use-after-move bug in add_thread_object, but
it changed the inferior_thread attribute to contain the inferior instead
of the actual thread.
This now uses the thread_obj in its new location instead.

This commit adds a new object type gdb.TargetConnection. This new
type represents a connection within GDB (a connection as displayed by
'info connections').
There's three ways to find a gdb.TargetConnection, there's a new
'gdb.connections()' function, which returns a list of all currently
active connections.
Or you can read the new 'connection' property on the gdb.Inferior
object type, this contains the connection for that inferior (or None
if the inferior has no connection, for example, it is exited).
Finally, there's a new gdb.events.connection_removed event registry,
this emits a new gdb.ConnectionEvent whenever a connection is removed
from GDB (this can happen when all inferiors using a connection exit,
though this is not always the case, depending on the connection type).
The gdb.ConnectionEvent has a 'connection' property, which is the
gdb.TargetConnection being removed from GDB.
The gdb.TargetConnection has an 'is_valid()' method. A connection
object becomes invalid when the underlying connection is removed from
GDB (as discussed above, this might be when all inferiors using a
connection exit, or it might be when the user explicitly replaces a
connection in GDB by issuing another 'target' command).
The gdb.TargetConnection has the following read-only properties:
'num': The number for this connection,
'type': e.g. 'native', 'remote', 'sim', etc
'description': The longer description as seen in the 'info
connections' command output.
'details': A string or None. Extra details for the connection, for
example, a remote connection's details might be
'hostname:port'.

I don't find that the bpstat typedef, which hides a pointer, is
particularly useful. In fact, it confused me many times, and I just see
it as something to remember that adds cognitive load. Also, with C++,
we might want to be able to pass bpstats objects by const-reference, not
necessarily by pointer.
So, remove the bpstat typedef and rename struct bpstats to bpstat (since
it represents one bpstat, it makes sense that it is singular).

The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

In a future commit I'm going to be creating gdb.Membuf objects from a
new file within gdb/python/py*.c. Currently all gdb.Membuf objects
are created directly within infpy_read_memory (as a result of calling
gdb.Inferior.read_memory()).
Initially I split out the Membuf creation code into a new function,
and left the new function in gdb/python/py-inferior.c, however, it
felt a little random that the Membuf creation code should live with
the inferior handling code.
So, then I moved all of the Membuf related code out into a new file,
gdb/python/py-membuf.c, the interface is gdbpy_buffer_to_membuf, which
wraps an array of bytes into a gdb.Membuf object.
Most of the code is moved directly from py-inferior.c with only minor
tweaks to layout and replacing NULL with nullptr, hence, I've left the
copyright date on py-membuf.c as 2009-2021 to match py-inferior.c.
Currently, the only user of this code is still py-inferior.c, but in
later commits this will change.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

When a user creates a gdb.Inferior object for the first time a new
Python object is created. This object is then cached within GDB's
inferior object using the registry mechanism (see
inferior_to_inferior_object in py-inferior.c, specifically the calls
to inferior_data and set_inferior_data).
The Python Reference to the gdb.Inferior object held within the real
inferior object ensures that the reference count on the Python
gdb.Inferior object never reaches zero while the GDB inferior object
continues to exist.
At the same time, the gdb.Inferior object maintains a C++ pointer back
to GDB's real inferior object. We therefore end up with a system that
looks like this:
Python Reference
|
|
.----------. | .--------------.
| |------------------->| |
| inferior | | gdb.Inferior |
| |<-------------------| |
'----------' | '--------------'
|
|
C++ Pointer
When GDB's inferior object is deleted (say the inferior exits) then
py_free_inferior is called (thanks to the registry system), this
function looks up the Python gdb.Inferior object and sets the C++
pointer to nullptr and finally reduces the reference count on the
Python gdb.Inferior object.
If at this point the user still holds a reference to the Python
gdb.Inferior object then nothing happens. However, the gdb.Inferior
object is now in the non-valid state (see infpy_is_valid in
py-inferior.c), but otherwise, everything is fine.
However, if there are no further references to the Python gdb.Inferior
object, or, once the user has given up all their references to the
gdb.Inferior object, then infpy_dealloc is called.
This function currently checks to see if the inferior pointer within
the gdb.Inferior object is nullptr or not. If the pointer is nullptr
then infpy_dealloc immediately returns.
Only when the inferior point in the gdb.Inferior is not nullptr do
we (a) set the gdb.Inferior reference inside GDB's inferior to
nullptr, and (b) call the underlying Python tp_free function.
There are a number things wrong here:
1. The Python gdb.Inferior reference within GDB's inferior object
holds a reference count, thus, setting this reference to nullptr
without first decrementing the reference count would leak a
reference, however...
2. As GDB's inferior holds a reference then infpy_dealloc will never
be called until GDB's inferior object is deleted. Deleting a GDB
inferior ohject calls py_free_inferior, and so gives up the
reference. At this point there is no longer a need to call
set_inferior_data to set the field back to NULL, that field must
have been cleared in order to get the reference count to zero, which
means...
3. If we know that py_free_inferior must be called before
infpy_dealloc, then we know that the inferior pointer in
gdb.Inferior will always be nullptr when infpy_dealloc is called,
this means that the call to the underlying tp_free function will
always be skipped. Skipping this call will cause Python to leak the
memory associated with the gdb.Inferior object, which is what we
currently always do.
Given all of the above, I assert that the C++ pointer within
gdb.Inferior will always be nullptr when infpy_dealloc is called.
That's what this patch does.
I wrote a test for this issue making use of Pythons tracemalloc
module, which allows us to spot this memory leak.

Python 2 has a bit flag Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER which can be passed as
part of the tp_flags field when defining a new object type. This flag
is not defined in Python 3 and so we define it to 0 in
python-internal.h (when IS_PY3K is defined).
The meaning of this flag is that the object has the fields tp_iter and
tp_iternext. Note the use of "has" here, the flag says nothing about
the values in those fields, just that the type object has the fields.
In early versions of Python 2 these fields were no part of the
PyTypeObject struct, they were added in version 2.2 (see
https://docs.python.org/release/2.3/api/type-structs.html). And so,
there could be a some code compiled out there which has a PyTypeObject
structure within it that doesn't even have the tp_iter and tp_iternext
fields, attempting to access these fields would be undefined
behaviour.
And so Python added the Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER flag. If the flag is
present then Python is free to access the tp_iter and tp_iternext
fields.
If we consider GDB then we always assume that the tp_iter and
tp_iternext fields are part of PyTypeObject. If someone was crazy
enough to try and compile GDB against Python 2.1 then we'd get lots of
build errors saying that we were passing too many fields when
initializing PyTypeObject structures. And so, I claim, we can be sure
that GDB will always be compiled with a version of Python that has the
tp_iter and tp_iternext fields in PyTypeObject.
Next we can look at the Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT flag. In Python 2, each
time additional fields are added to PyTypeObject a new Py_TPFLAGS_*
flag would be defined to indicate whether those flags are present or
not. And, those new flags would be added to Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT. And
so, in the latest version of Python 2 the Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT flag
includes Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER (see
https://docs.python.org/2.7/c-api/typeobj.html).
In GDB we pass Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT as part of the tp_flags for all
objects we define.
And so, in this commit, I propose to remove all uses of
Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER from GDB, it's simply not needed.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

A following patch will want to take some action when a pending wait
status is set on or removed from a thread. Add a getter and a setter on
thread_info for the pending waitstatus, so that we can add some code in
the setter later.
The thing is, the pending wait status field is in the
thread_suspend_state, along with other fields that we need to backup
before and restore after the thread does an inferior function call.
Therefore, make the thread_suspend_state member private
(thread_info::suspend becomes thread_info::m_suspend), and add getters /
setters for all of its fields:
- pending wait status
- stop signal
- stop reason
- stop pc
For the pending wait status, add the additional has_pending_waitstatus
and clear_pending_waitstatus methods.
I think this makes the thread_info interface a bit nicer, because we
now access the fields as:
thread->stop_pc ()
rather than
thread->suspend.stop_pc
The stop_pc field being in the `suspend` structure is an implementation
detail of thread_info that callers don't need to be aware of.
For the backup / restore of the thread_suspend_state structure, add
save_suspend_to and restore_suspend_from methods. You might wonder why
`save_suspend_to`, as opposed to a simple getter like
thread_suspend_state &suspend ();
I want to make it clear that this is to be used only for backing up and
restoring the suspend state, _not_ to access fields like:
thread->suspend ()->stop_pc
Adding some getters / setters allows adding some assertions. I find
that this helps understand how things are supposed to work. Add:
- When getting the pending status (pending_waitstatus method), ensure
that there is a pending status.
- When setting a pending status (set_pending_waitstatus method), ensure
there is no pending status.
There is one case I found where this wasn't true - in
remote_target::process_initial_stop_replies - which needed adjustments
to respect that contract. I think it's because
process_initial_stop_replies is kind of (ab)using the
thread_info::suspend::waitstatus to store some statuses temporarily, for
its internal use (statuses it doesn't intent on leaving pending).
process_initial_stop_replies pulls out stop replies received during the
initial connection using target_wait. It always stores the received
event in `evthread->suspend.waitstatus`. But it only sets
waitstatus_pending_p, if it deems the event interesting enough to leave
pending, to be reported to the core:
if (ws.kind != TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
|| ws.value.sig != GDB_SIGNAL_0)
evthread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p = 1;
It later uses this flag a bit below, to choose which thread to make the
"selected" one:
if (selected == NULL
&& thread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p)
selected = thread;
And ultimately that's used if the user-visible mode is all-stop, so that
we print the stop for that interesting thread:
/* In all-stop, we only print the status of one thread, and leave
others with their status pending. */
if (!non_stop)
{
thread_info *thread = selected;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = lowest_stopped;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = first;
print_one_stopped_thread (thread);
}
But in any case (all-stop or non-stop), print_one_stopped_thread needs
to access the waitstatus value of these threads that don't have a
pending waitstatus (those that had TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0). This doesn't work with the assertions I've
put.
So, change the code to only set the thread's wait status if it is an
interesting one that we are going to leave pending. If the thread
stopped due to a non-interesting event (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0), don't store it. Adjust print_one_stopped_thread to
understand that if a thread has no pending waitstatus, it's because it
stopped with TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED + GDB_SIGNAL_0.
The call to set_last_target_status also uses the pending waitstatus.
However, given that the pending waitstatus for the thread may have been
cleared in print_one_stopped_thread (and that there might not even be a
pending waitstatus in the first place, as explained above), it is no
longer possible to do it at this point. To fix that, move the call to
set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread. I think this will
preserve the existing behavior, because set_last_target_status is
currently using the current thread's wait status. And the current
thread is the last one for which print_one_stopped_thread is called. So
by calling set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread, we'll get
the same result. set_last_target_status will possibly be called
multiple times, but only the last call will matter. It just means
possibly more calls to set_last_target_status, but those are cheap.

We already have two helper functions in py-utils.c:
gdb_py_object_from_longest (LONGEST l)
gdb_py_object_from_ulongest (ULONGEST l)
these wrap around calls to either PyLong_FromLongLong,
PyLong_FromLong, or PyInt_From_Long (if Python 2 is being used).
There is one place in gdb/python/* where a call to PyLong_FromLong was
added outside of the above utility functions, this was done in the
recent commit:
commit 55789354fcbaf879f3ca8475b647b2747dec486e
Date: Fri May 14 11:56:31 2021 +0200
gdb/python: add a 'connection_num' attribute to Inferior objects
In this commit I replace the direct use of PyLong_FromLong with a call
to gdb_py_object_from_longest. The only real change with this commit,
is that, for Python 2, we will now end up calling PyInt_FromLong
instead of PyLong_FromLong, but this should be invisible to the user.
For Python 3 there should be absolutely no change.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/py-inferior.c (infpy_get_connection_num): Call
gdb_py_object_from_longest instead of PyLong_FromLong directly.

Define a 'connection_num' attribute for Inferior objects. The
read-only attribute is the ID of the connection of an inferior, as
printed by "info inferiors". In GDB's internal terminology, that's
the process stratum target of the inferior. If the inferior has no
target connection, the attribute is None.

functions in two, all the calls to register_objfile_data_with_cleanup,
gdbarch_data_register_post_init, etc are moved into new _initialize_*

functions.
Then the call to do_start_initialization (in python/python.c) is moved
from the _initialize_python function into gdbpy_finish_initialization.

Without any explicit dependencies specified, the observers attached
to the 'gdb::observers::new_objfile' observable are always notified
in the order in which they have been attached.
The new_objfile observer callback to auto-load scripts is attached in
'_initialize_auto_load'.
The new_objfile observer callback that propagates the new_objfile event
to the Python side is attached in 'gdbpy_initialize_inferior', which is
called via '_initialize_python'.
With '_initialize_python' happening before '_initialize_auto_load',
the consequence was that the new_objfile event was emitted on the Python
side before autoloaded scripts had been executed when a new objfile was
loaded.
As a result, trying to access the objfile's pretty printers (defined in
the autoloaded script) from a handler for the Python-side
'new_objfile' event would fail. Those would only be initialized later on
(when the 'auto_load_new_objfile' callback was called).
To make sure that the objfile passed to the Python event handler
is properly initialized (including its 'pretty_printers' member),
make sure that the 'auto_load_new_objfile' observer is notified
before the 'python_new_objfile' one that propagates the event
to the Python side.
To do this, make use of the mechanism to explicitly specify
dependencies between observers (introduced in a preparatory commit).
Add a corresponding testcase that involves a test library with an autoloaded
Python script and a handler for the Python 'new_objfile' event.
(The real world use case where I came across this issue was in an attempt
to extend handling for GDB pretty printers for dynamically loaded
objfiles in the Qt Creator IDE, s. [1] and [2] for more background.)

I was inspired by this patch of Simon's:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-November/173522.html
... to remove other typedefs that are no longer necessary now that gdb
uses C++.
I didn't remove absolutely every one -- I didn't touch the tdep files.
However, I removed many of them. In some cases, I removed an existing

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).
