This updates the copyright headers to include 2025. I did this by
running gdb/copyright.py and then manually modifying a few files as
noted by the script.

GDB's compile subsystem is deeply tied to GDB's ability to understand
DWARF. A future patch will add the option to disable DWARF at configure
time, but for that to work, the compile subsystem will need to be
entirely disabled as well, so this patch adds that possibility.
I also think there is motive for a security conscious user to disable
compile for it's own sake. Considering that the code is quite
unmaintained, and depends on an equally unmaintained gcc plugin, there
is a case to be made that this is an unnecessary increase in the attack
surface if a user knows they won't use the subsystem. Additionally, this
can make compilation slightly faster and the final binary is around 3Mb
smaller. But these are all secondary to the main goal of being able to
disable dwarf at configure time.
To be able to achieve optional compilation, some of the code that
interfaces with compile had to be changed. All parts that directly
called compile things have been wrapped by ifdefs checking for compile
support. The file compile/compile.c has been setup in a similar way to
how python's and guile's main file has been setup, still being compiled
but only for with placeholder command.
Finally, to avoid several new errors, a new TCL proc was introduced to
gdb.exp, allow_compile_tests, which checks if the "compile" command is
recognized before the inferior is started and otherwise skips the compile
tests. All tests in the gdb.compile subfolder have been updated to use
that, and the test gdb.base/filename-completion also uses this. The proc
skip_compile_feature_tests to recognize when the subsystem has been
disabled at compile time.

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.

Attempting to test the gdb.compile with clang as the compiler results in
over 300 unexpected errors, due to a segmentation fault and several
handshake failures. Since the whole feature is designed around a gcc
plugin, and even the gcc testing is shaky at best, this commit restricts
those tests to only running under gcc. If that gets fixed, this commit
can be reverted.

This changes skip_cplus_tests to invert the sense, and renames it to
allow_cplus_tests. This one also converts skip_stl_tests to
allow_stl_tests, as that was convenient to do at the same time.
|
|
This changes some tests to use "require !skip_cplus_tests".

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.

PR compile/29541 points out that some of the C++ tests in gdb.compile
will time out when the glibc debuginfo is installed. This was
interfering with my hacking on gdb by making test runs extremely long,
so I looked into it.
Internally the bug seems to be that gdb tries to convert multiple
symbols named "var" via the compiler interface; one such symbol (I
didn't track it down too far) causes the C++ compiler plugin to crash.
Unfortunately, the crash is reported as a timeout, as the gdb side of
the plugin simply hangs. This seems like a bug in the plugin RPC
mechanism and, worse, apparently when I wrote this stuff I didn't
really consider error reporting very much at all, so gdb can't really
detect failures in the first place.
Anyway... this patch works around the timeout by compiling a simple
test that should provoke this bug, and then using "untested" if it
notices a GCC crash.

As follow-up to this discussion:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-August/171385.html
... make runto_main not pass no-message to runto. This means that if we
fail to run to main, for some reason, we'll emit a FAIL. This is the
behavior we want the majority of (if not all) the time.
Without this, we rely on tests logging a failure if runto_main fails,
otherwise. They do so in a very inconsisteny mannet, sometimes using
"fail", "unsupported" or "untested". The messages also vary widly.
This patch removes all these messages as well.
Also, remove a few "fail" where we call runto (and not runto_main). by
default (without an explicit no-message argument), runto prints a
failure already. In two places, gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp and
gdb.python/py-pp-registration.exp, remove "message" passed to runto.
This removes a few PASSes that we don't care about (but FAILs will still
be printed if we fail to run to where we want to). This aligns their
behavior with the rest of the testsuite.

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.

Update copyright year range in all GDB files.

This patch adds *basic* support for C++ to the compile feature. It does
most simple type conversions, including everything that C compile does and
your basic "with-classes" type of C++.
I've written a new compile-support.exp support file which adds a new test
facility for automating and simplifying "compile print" vs "compile code"
testing. See testsuite/lib/compile-support.exp and CompileExpression
for more on that. The tests use this facility extensively.
This initial support has several glaring omissions:
- No template support at all
I have follow-on patches for this, but they add much complexity
to this "basic" support. Consequently, they will be submitted separately.
- Cannot print functions
The code template needs tweaking, and I simply haven't gotten to it yet.
- So-called "special function" support is not included
Using constructors, destructors, operators, etc will not work. I have
follow-on patches for that, but they require some work because of the
recent churn in symbol searching.
- There are several test suite references to "compile/1234" bugs.
I will file bugs and update the test suite's bug references before pushing
these patches.
The test suite started as a copy of the original C-language support, but
I have written tests to exercise the basic functionality of the plug-in.
I've added a new option for outputting debug messages for C++ type-conversion
("debug compile-cplus-types").
