When reverting commit 5a20fadc841 the test-case
gdb.dwarf2/locexpr-data-member-location.exp fails like this:
...
FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/locexpr-data-member-location.exp: running to bar in runto \
(GDB internal error)
ERROR: Could not resync from internal error (eof)
...
and takes 1 minute to run.
The long running time is caused by running into a timeout in gdb_run_cmd, at
this point:
...
(gdb) run ^M
The program being debugged has been started already.^M
Start it from the beginning? (y or n) y^M
/home/vries/gdb_versions/devel/src/gdb/gdbtypes.c:5583: internal-error: \
Unexpected type field location kind: 4^M
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,^M
further debugging may prove unreliable.^M
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
...
Fix this by detecting the internal-error in gdb_run_cmd. We don't handle it
in gdb_run_cmd, but stash the gdb output back into the buffer using
-notransfer, and let the caller proc runto deal with it.
After the fix, the test-case just takes 2 seconds.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

A previous commit added the
gdb.arch/riscv64-unwind-prologue-with-ld-lw.exp testcase, but one of its
associated file was named after a previous version of the test.
This commit fixes this and makes sure that all the files linked to this
testcase share the same prefix in the name.
Tested on riscv64 GNU/Linux.

Before commit 5a20fadc841 the test-case
gdb.dwarf2/locexpr-data-member-location.exp fails like this:
...
FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/locexpr-data-member-location.exp: running to bar in runto \

"uplevel $body" NONE : spawn id exp9 not open
ERROR: Could not resync from internal error (timeout)
...
Fix the:
...
ERROR: : spawn id exp9 not open
...
by handling eof in gdb_internal_error_resync, such that we have instead:
...
FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/locexpr-data-member-location.exp: running to bar in runto \

There are a few includes of complaints.h that aren't necessary. This
patch removes them. Tested by rebuilding.
|
|
The case for FIELD_LOC_KIND_DWARF_BLOCK was missing for
switch TYPE_FIELD_LOC_KIND. Thas caused an internal-error
under some circumstances.
Fixes bug 28030.

On a machine on Open Build Service I'm running into a SIGILL for test-case
gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp:
...
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.^M
test_rip_vex2 () at gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.S:40^M
40 vmovsd ro_var(%rip),%xmm0^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp: vex2: \
continue to test_rip_vex2_end
...
The SIGILL happens when trying to execute the first avx instruction in the
executable.
I can't directly access the machine, but looking at the log for test-case
gdb.arch/i386-avx.exp, it seems that there's no avx support:
...
Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffd6b8) at gdb.arch/i386-avx.c:68^M
68 if (have_avx ())^M
(gdb) print have_avx ()^M
$1 = 0^M
...
Fix this by:
- adding a gdb_caching_proc have_avx, similar to have_mpx, using the have_avx
function from gdb.arch/i386-avx.c
- using proc have_avx in both gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp
and gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/i386-avx.exp.
Tested on my x86_64-linux laptop with avx support, where both test-cases pass.

On a Windows build locally, watchpoints started failing. I tracked
this down to x86_dr_low_get_addr returning an 'unsigned long'... in
this particular build, this is a 32-bit type, but the inferior is a
64-bit program.
This patch fixes the problem by changing the return type. No other
change is required, because this matches the function pointer in
struct x86_dr_low_type.

The original reproducer for PR28030 required use of a specific
compiler version - gcc-c++-11.1.1-3.fc34 is mentioned in the PR,
though it seems probable that other gcc versions might also be able to
reproduce the bug as well. This commit introduces a test case which,
using the DWARF assembler, provides a reproducer which is independent
of the compiler version. (Well, it'll work with whatever compilers
the DWARF assembler works with.)
To the best of my knowledge, it's also the first test case which uses
the DWARF assembler to provide debug info for a shared object. That
being the case, I provided more than the usual commentary which should
allow this case to be used as a template when a combo shared
library / DWARF assembler test case is required in the future.
I provide some details regarding the bug in a comment near the
beginning of locexpr-dml.exp.
This problem was difficult to reproduce; I found myself constantly
referring to the backtrace while trying to figure out what (else) I
might be missing while trying to create a reproducer. Below is a
partial backtrace which I include for posterity.

I'll note a few points regarding this backtrace:
Frame #1 is where the internal error occurs. It's caused by an
unhandled case for FIELD_LOC_KIND_DWARF_BLOCK. The fix for this bug
adds support for this case.
Frame #22 - it's a partial backtrace - shows that GDB is attempting to
(re)run the program. You can see the exact command sequence that was
used for reproducing this problem in the PR (at
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28030), but in a
nutshell, after starting the program and advancing to the appropriate
source line, GDB was asked to step into libstdc++; a "finish" command
was issued, returning a value. The fact that a value was returned is
very important. GDB was then used to step back into libstdc++. A
breakpoint was set on a source line in the library after which a "run"
command was issued.
Frame #19 shows a call to objfile_purge_solibs. It's aptly named.
Frame #7 is a call to the destructor for one of the objfile solibs; it
turned out to be the one for libstdc++.
Frames #6 thru #3 show various value preservation frames. If you look
at preserve_values() in gdb/value.c, the value history is preserved
first, followed by internal variables, followed by values for the
extension languages (python and guile).

I used this trick to avoid doing additional_flags=-DDWO=\"$dwo\", since I was

Remove breakpoint_find_if, replace its sole usage with using
all_breakpoints directly instead. At the same time, change return
types to use bool.

gdbfmt was already used for printf_filtered, so using it for
vprintf_filtered is more consistent.
As a result, all callers of vfprintf_maybe_filtered now use gdbfmt, so
the function can be simplified to assume the gdbfmt case and remove
the associated bool argument. Similary, vprintf_filtered is now a
simple wrapper around vfprintf_filtered.

The handler for 'info proc status' for native processes on FreeBSD
uses the 'j' size modifier along with uintmax_t / intmax_t casts to
output integer values for types such as off_t that are not aliases of
a basic C type such as 'int' or 'long'. printf_filtered does not
support the 'j' modifer, so this resulted in runtime errors in
practice:

I haven't dug to know why it does not happen everywhere, but this patch
fixes it by using the constructor to initialize the variable, rather
than the assignment operator.

Tom de Vries noticed that a patch in the DWARF scanner rewrite series
caused a regression in parallel_for_each -- it started crashing in the
case where the number of threads is 0 (there was an unchecked use of
"n-1" that was used to size an array).
He also pointed out that there were no tests of parallel_for_each.
This adds a few tests of parallel_for_each, primarily testing that
different settings for the number of threads will work. This test
catches the bug that he found in that series.

I wanted to see how many threads gdb thought it was using, but
"maint show worker-threads" only reported "unlimited". This patch
adds a show function so that it will now report the number of threads
gdb has started.

The current syntax of proc arange is:
...
proc arange { arange_start arange_length {comment ""} {seg_sel ""} } {
...
and a typical call looks like:
...
arange $start $len
...
This style is somewhat annoying because if you want to specify the last
parameter, you need to give the default values of all the other optional ones
before as well:
...
arange $start $len "" $seg_sel
...
Update the syntax to:
...
proc arange { options arange_start arange_length } {
parse_options {
{ comment "" }
{ seg_sel "" }
}
...
such that a typical call looks like:
...
arange {} $start $len
...
and a call using seg_sel looks like:
...
arange {
seg_sel $seg_sel
} $start $len
...
Also update proc aranges, which already has an options argument, to use the
new proc parse_options.

When comparing the sizes of the index files generated for shlib
outputs/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-zero-range/shr1.sl, I noticed a large difference
between .debug_names:
...
$ gdb -q -batch $shlib -ex "save gdb-index -dwarf-5 ."
$ du -b -h shr1.sl.debug_names shr1.sl.debug_str
61 shr1.sl.debug_names

...
$ gdb -q -batch $shlib -ex "save gdb-index ."
$ du -b -h shr1.sl.gdb-index

The problem is that the .gdb_index contains a non-empty symbol table with only
empty entries.

Before commit 5ef670d81fd "[gdb/testsuite] Add dummy start and end CUs in
dwarf assembly" we had in exec outputs/gdb.dlang/watch-loc/watch-loc a D
compilation unit at offset 0xc7:
...

Version: 4
Abbrev Offset: 0x64
Pointer Size: 8
<0><d2>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
<d3> DW_AT_language : 19 (D)
...
with a corresponding .debug_aranges entry:
...
Offset into .debug_info: 0xc7
Pointer Size: 4
Segment Size: 0
Address Length
004004a7 0000000b
00000000 00000000

After that commit we have a dummy CU at offset 0xc7 and the D compilation unit
at offset 0xd2:
...
Compilation Unit @ offset 0xc7:

Abbrev Offset: 0x64

<0><dd>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
<de> DW_AT_language : 19 (D)
...
while the .debug_aranges entry still points to 0xc7.
The problem is that the test-case uses a hack (quoting from
commit 75f06e9dc59):
...
[ Note: this is a non-trivial test-case. The file watch-loc-dw.S contains a
.debug_info section, but not an .debug_aranges section or any actual code.
The file watch-loc.c contains code and a .debug_aranges section, but no other
debug section. So, the intent for the .debug_aranges section in watch-loc.c
is to refer to a compilation unit in the .debug_info section in
watch-loc-dw.S. ]
...
and adding the dummy CU caused that hack to stop working.
Fix this by moving the generation of .debug_aranges from watch-loc.c to
watch-loc.exp, such that we have:
...
Offset into .debug_info: 0xd2
Pointer Size: 4
Segment Size: 0

We can use current dwarf assembly infrastructure to declare a label that marks
the start of the CU header:
...
declare_labels header_start_cu_a
_section ".debug_info"
header_start_cu_a : cu {} {
}
_section ".debug_info"
header_start_cu_b : cu {} {
}
...
on the condition that we switch to the .debug_info section before, which makes
this style of use fragile.
Another way to achieve the same is to use the label as generated by the cu
proc itself:
...
variable _cu_label
cu {} {
}
set header_start_cu_a $_cu_label
cu {} {
}
set header_start_cu_b $_cu_label
...
but again that seems fragile given that adding a new CU inbetween will
silently result in the wrong value for the label.
Add a label option to proc cu such that we can simply do:
...
cu { label header_start_cu_a } {
}
cu { label header_start_cu_b } {
}
...

PR symtab/28160 and PR symtab/27893 concern GDB crashes in the test
suite when using the "fission" target board. They are both caused by
the patches that merge the list of CUs with the list of TUs (and to a
lesser degree by the patches to share DWARF data across objfiles), and
the underlying issue is the same: it turns out that reading a DWO can
cause new type units to be created. This means that the list of
dwarf2_per_cu_data objects depends on precisely which CUs have been
expanded. However, because the type units can be created while
expanding a CU means that the vector of CUs can expand while it is
being iterated over -- a classic mistake. Also, because a TU can be
added later, it means the resize_symtabs approach is incorrect.
This patch fixes resize_symtabs by removing it, and having set_symtab
resize the vector on demand. It fixes the iteration problem by
introducing a safe (index-based) iterator and changing the relevant
spots to use it.

dw2-ranges-overlap.exp creates a program where a psymtab has two
address ranges, and a function without debug info whose address is
between these two ranges. Then it sets a breakpoint on this function
and runs to it, expecting that the language should remain "auto; c"
when stopped.
However, this test case also has a "main" function described (briefly)
in the DWARF, and this function is given language C++. Also, a
breakpoint stop sets the current language to the language that was
used when setting the breakpoint.
My new DWARF scanner decides that this "main" is the main program and
sets the current language to C++ at startup, causing this test to
fail.
This patch fixes the test in a simple way, by introducing a new
function that takes the place of "main" in the DWARF. I think this
still exercises the original problem, but also avoids problems with my
branch.
It seemed safe to me to submit this separately.

The test-case gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges.exp is the only one in the gdb testsuite
that uses gas-generated stabs.
While the use seems natural alongside the use of gas-generated dwarf in the
same test-case, there are a few known issues, filed on the gdb side as:
- PR symtab/12497 - "stabs: PIE relocation does not work"
- PR symtab/28221 - "[readnow, stabs] FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges.exp: \
info line func"
and on the gas side as:
- PR gas/28233 - "[gas, --gstabs] Generate stabs more similar to gcc"
The test-case contains a KFAIL for PR12497, but it's outdated and fails to
trigger.
The intention of the test-case is to test gas-generated dwarf, and using
gcc-generated stabs instead of gas-generated stabs works fine.
Supporting compiler-generated stabs is already a corner-case for gdb, and
there's no current commitment/incentive to support/workaround gas-generated
stabs, which can be considered a corner-case of a corner-case.
Work around these problem by using compiler-generated stabs in the test-case.

Say one compiles a hello.c:
...
$ gcc -g hello.c
...
On openSUSE Leap 15.2 and Tumbleweed, the CU for hello.c is typically not the
first in .debug_info, nor the last, due to presence of debug information in
objects for sources like:
- ../sysdeps/x86_64/start.S
- init.c
- ../sysdeps/x86_64/crti.S
- elf-init.c
- ../sysdeps/x86_64/crtn.S.
On other systems, say ubuntu 18.04.5, the CU for hello.c is typically the
first and the last in .debug_info.
This difference has caused me to find some errors in the dwarf assembly
using openSUSE, that didn't show up on other platforms.

and end CU.

If I debug a single-thread program and look at the infrun debug logs, I
see:
[infrun] start_step_over: stealing global queue of threads to step, length = 2
That makes no sense... turns out there's a buglet in
thread_step_over_chain_length, "num" should be initialized to 0. I
think this bug is a leftover from an earlier version of the code (not
merged upstream) that manually walked the list, where the first item was
implicitly counted (hence the 1).

On an internal test case, using an arm-elf target, commit ba5bc3e5a92
("Make DWARF evaluator return a single struct value") causes a
regression. (It doesn't happen for any of the other cross targets
that I test when importing upstream gdb.)
I don't know if there's an upstream gdb test case showing the same
problem... I can only really run native tests with dejagnu AFAIK.
The failure manifests like this:
Breakpoint 1, file_1.export_1 (param_1=<error reading variable: Unable to access DWARF register number 64>, str=...) at [...]/file_1.adb:5
Whereas when it works it looks like:
Breakpoint 1, file_1.export_1 (param_1=99.0, str=...) at [...]/file_1.adb:5
The difference is that the new code uses the passed-in gdbarch,
whereas the old code used the frame's gdbarch, when handling
DWARF_VALUE_REGISTER.
This patch restores the use of the frame's arch.

Commit 0579205aec4 ("Simplify dwarf_expr_context class interface")
caused a regression in the internal AdaCore test suite. I didn't try
to reproduce this with the GDB test suite, but the test is identical
to gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp.
The problem is that this change:
case DW_OP_push_object_address:
/* Return the address of the object we are currently observing. */
- if (this->data_view.data () == nullptr
- && this->obj_address == 0)
+ if (this->m_addr_info == nullptr)
... slightly changes the logic here. In particular, it's possible for
the caller to pass in a non-NULL m_addr_info, but one that looks like:
(top) p *this.m_addr_info
$15 = {
type = 0x29b7a70,
valaddr = {
m_array = 0x0,
m_size = 0
},
addr = 0,
next = 0x0
}
In this case, an additional check is needed. With the current code,
what happens instead is that the computation computes an incorrect
address -- but one that does not fail in read_memory, due to the
precise memory map of the embedded target in question.
This patch restores the old logic.

As breakpoint_modified observer is currently notified upon breakpoint stop
before handling auto-disabling when enable count is reached, the observer
is never notified of the disabling.
The problem affects:
- The MI interpreter enabled= value when reporting =breakpoint-modified
- A Python event handler for breakpoint_modified using the "enabled"
member of its parameter
- insight: breakpoint GUI window is not properly updated upon auto-disable
This patch moves the observer notification after the auto-disabling
code and implements corresponding tests for the MI and Python cases.

While working on the testsuite, I ended up noticing that GDB fails to
produce a full backtrace from a thread waiting in pthread_join. When
selecting the waiting thread and using the 'bt' command, the following
result can be observed:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x0000003ff7fccd20 in __futex_abstimed_wait_common64 () from /lib/riscv64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
#1 0x0000003ff7fc43da in __pthread_clockjoin_ex () from /lib/riscv64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
Backtrace stopped: frame did not save the PC
On my platform, I do not have debug symbols for glibc, so I need to rely
on prologue analysis in order to unwind stack.
Here is what the function prologue looks like:
(gdb) disassemble __pthread_clockjoin_ex
Dump of assembler code for function __pthread_clockjoin_ex:

0x0000003ff7fc4302 <+36>: sd a5,40(sp)
As far as prologue analysis is concerned, the most interesting part is
done at address 0x0000003ff7fc42ee (<+16>): 'sd ra,136(sp)'. This stores
the RA (return address) register on the stack, which is the information
we are looking for in order to identify the caller.
In the current implementation of the prologue scanner, GDB stops when
hitting 0x0000003ff7fc42e6 (<+8>) because it does not know what to do
with the 'ld' instruction. GDB thinks it reached the end of the
prologue but have not yet reached the important part, which explain
GDB's inability to unwind past this point.
The section of the prologue starting at <+4> until <+12> is used to load
the stack canary[1], which will then be placed on the stack at <+36> at
the end of the prologue.
In order to have the prologue properly handled, this commit proposes to
add support for the ld instruction in the RISC-V prologue scanner.
I guess riscv32 would use lw in such situation so this patch also adds
support for this instruction.
With this patch applied, gdb is now able to unwind past pthread_join:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x0000003ff7fccd20 in __futex_abstimed_wait_common64 () from /lib/riscv64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
#1 0x0000003ff7fc43da in __pthread_clockjoin_ex () from /lib/riscv64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0
#2 0x0000002aaaaaa88e in bar() ()
#3 0x0000002aaaaaa8c4 in foo() ()
#4 0x0000002aaaaaa8da in main ()
I have had a look to see if I could reproduce this easily, but in my
simple testcases using '-fstack-protector-all', the canary is loaded
after the RA register is saved. I do not have a reliable way of
generating a prologue similar to the problematic one so I forged one
instead.
The testsuite have been run on riscv64 ubuntu 21.01 with no regression
observed.

The test steps into func2 and than does an up to get back to the previous
frame. The test checks that the line number you are at after the up command
is greater than the line where the function was called from. The
assembly/codegen for the powerpc target includes a NOP after the
branch-link.
func2 (); /* Break at func2 call site. /
10000694: 59 00 00 48 bl 100006ec
10000698: 00 00 00 60 nop
return 0; / Break to end. */
1000069c: 00 00 20 39 li r9,0
The PC at the instruction following the branch-link is 0x10000698 which
GDB.find_pc_line() maps to the same line number as the bl instruction.
GDB did move past the branch-link location thus making forward progress.
The following proposed fix adds an additional PC check to see if forward
