2025-02-09Add dwarf2_per_bfd::start_readingTom Tromey5-14/+28
The cooked index "start_reading" method can only be called after the dwarf2_per_bfd "index_table" member is set. This patch refactors this code a little to centralize this constraint, adding a new dwarf2_per_bfd::start_reading method and another (virtual) method to dwarf_scanner_base. This removes some casts, but also is also useful to support another series I'm working on where the .gdb_index is rewritten. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
2025-02-09gdb/testsuite: avoid incorrect symbols in gdb.base/condbreak-multi-context.ccAndrew Burgess2-72/+165
In a different series I tweak how disabled_by_cond is handled in update_breakpoint_locations for code_breakpoint objects, see: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/cover.1734366277.git.aburgess@redhat.com But when I did this I ran into a regression in the test script gdb.base/condbreak-multi-context.cc which I think is actually an issue with this test. The test relies on creating a multi-location breakpoint with a condition and having GDB disable some of the locations as the condition is only valid in some of the locations. Here's an example of the test creating one such breakpoint: Reading symbols from /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/condbreak-multi-context/condbreak-multi-context... (gdb) break func if a == 10 warning: failed to validate condition at location 1, disabling: No symbol "a" in current context. warning: failed to validate condition at location 3, disabling: No symbol "a" in current context.

(gdb) Notice that only location 1.2 is actually enabled, 1.1 and 1.3 are disabled due to the condition 'a == 10' not being valid. However, notice that this b/p is created before GDB has started the inferior. What I noticed is that if I first start the inferior then I get a different behaviour: Reading symbols from /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/condbreak-multi-context/condbreak-multi-context... (gdb) start Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x40110e: file /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/condbreak-multi-context.cc, line 49.

What's actually happening is that, on my machine libm.so contains a global symbol 'a' which for 2.1 and 2.3 is being used to satisfy the condition. I don't believe this is actually the intention of the test, this is just an unfortunate consequence of name collision. The test actually relies on the local variables 'a' and 'c', and my libm.so contains a global version of both. So I propose that we just update the test, I've gone for the super inventive 'aaa' and 'ccc'. With this change, after starting the inferior I now see the expected behaviour where only one of the three locations is enabled. However, while I'm fixing this I figure that it would be nice if the test checked both cases, creating the breakpoints before starting the inferior, and after starting the inferior. So I've updated the test to check both cases. This has meant converting the mostly linear test script into a set of parameterised functions which I then call with a flag to indicate if the inferior should be started before of after creating the breakpoints.

2025-02-09gdb/mi: include ranges in =library-unloaded eventAndrew Burgess4-14/+57
Having looked at the dlmopen support in GDB, it occurred to me that the current MI =library-unloaded event doesn't incude enough information to be useful. Consider the gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen.exp test, this test loads libraries into multiple linker namespaces, and then unloads these libraries. We should probably figure out a way to include the linker namepsace ID in GDB's output, e.g. in the =library-loaded and =library-unloaded MI events, and in the output of 'info sharedlibrary'. But this commit is not about doing that. This commit includes the 'ranges' information in the =library-unloaded event output. This is the same ranges information as is included in the =library-loaded output. Even without the linker namespace ID, this should allow MI consumers to figure out which library instance is being unloaded. Here is the 'info sharedlibrary' output for mi-dlmopen.exp at the point where all the shared libraries are loaded: info sharedlibrary &"info sharedlibrary\n" ~"From To Syms Read Shared Object Library\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2\n" ~"0x00007ffff7eda3d0 0x00007ffff7f4e898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7d0e800 0x00007ffff7e6dccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fbd040 0x00007ffff7fbd116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fb8040 0x00007ffff7fb80f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff7bfe3d0 0x00007ffff7c72898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7a32800 0x00007ffff7b91ccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fb3040 0x00007ffff7fb3116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fae040 0x00007ffff7fae0f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff7ce1040 0x00007ffff7ce1116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff7cdc040 0x00007ffff7cdc0f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so\n" ~"0x00007ffff79253d0 0x00007ffff7999898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7759800 0x00007ffff78b8ccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6\n" ~"0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2\n" ~"0x00007ffff7cd7040 0x00007ffff7cd7116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.2.so\n" ^done (gdb) Notice that dlmopen-lib.1.so is loaded multiple times. Here is the =library-unloaded event when one copy of this library is unloaded before this patch: =library-unloaded,id="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", target-name="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", host-name="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", thread-group="i1", It is not possible, given this information, to know which copy of dlmopen-lib.1.so has actually been unloaded. An MI consumer would need to query the full shared library list and update from that information. After this patch the new output is: =library-unloaded,id="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", target-name="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", host-name="/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.mi/mi-dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so", thread-group="i1", ranges=[{from="0x00007ffff7fbd040",to="0x00007ffff7fbd116"}], still-in-use="false" The new 'ranges' field allows an MI consumer to uniquely identify which library instance was just unmapped. A frontent could, e.g. update a library list with no need to query the full shared library list. To include the 'ranges' field I updated mi_interp::on_solib_unloaded to call a new helper function. The new helper function is split out from the existing mi_output_solib_attribs. I was tempted to just call mi_output_solib_attribs, but doing so would mean that the 'symbols-loaded' field was also added to the =library-unloaded event, however, the docs for 'symbols-unloaded' on =library-loaded says: The @var{symbols-loaded} field is emitted only for backward compatibility and should not be relied on to convey any useful information. And it seemed silly to add a fields to =library-unloaded, which I would then document as something that should be ignored. The new helper function means I can avoid emitting the 'symbols-loaded' field. I have also added a 'still-in-use' field. When true this indicates that the library was removed from the inferior's library list, but the mapping was not removed from the inferior's address space as there is another copy of the library that is still using the library. In the above list, notice that ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 appears 3 times, but each instance is mapped as 0x00007ffff7fca000. When one copy of ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is unloaded, here's the event: =library-unloaded,id="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2", target-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2", host-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2", thread-group="i1", ranges=[{from="0x00007ffff7fca000",to="0x00007ffff7ff03f5"}], still-in-use="true" The 'still-in-use' field is 'true', this indicates there are at least one instance of this library remaining mapped at 0x00007ffff7fca000.

2025-02-09gdb: include a still-mapped flag in solib unload notificationAndrew Burgess15-55/+566
Consider the gdb.base/dlmopen.exp test case. The executable in this test uses dlmopen to load libraries into multiple linker namespaces. When a library is loaded into a separate namespace, its dependencies are also loaded into that namespace. This means that an inferior can have multiple copies of some libraries, including the dynamic linker, loaded at once. However, glibc optimises at least the dynamic linker case. Though the library appears to be mapped multiple times (it is in the inferior's solib list multiple times), there is really only one copy mapped into the inferior's address space. Here is the 'info sharedlibrary' output on an x86-64/Linux machine once all the libraries are loaded: (gdb) info sharedlibrary From To Syms Read Shared Object Library 0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 0x00007ffff7eda3d0 0x00007ffff7f4e898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6 0x00007ffff7d0e800 0x00007ffff7e6dccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6 0x00007ffff7fbd040 0x00007ffff7fbd116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so 0x00007ffff7fb8040 0x00007ffff7fb80f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so 0x00007ffff7bfe3d0 0x00007ffff7c72898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6 0x00007ffff7a32800 0x00007ffff7b91ccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6 0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 0x00007ffff7fb3040 0x00007ffff7fb3116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so 0x00007ffff7fae040 0x00007ffff7fae0f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so 0x00007ffff7ce1040 0x00007ffff7ce1116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.1.so 0x00007ffff7cdc040 0x00007ffff7cdc0f9 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib-dep.so 0x00007ffff79253d0 0x00007ffff7999898 Yes /lib64/libm.so.6 0x00007ffff7759800 0x00007ffff78b8ccd Yes /lib64/libc.so.6 0x00007ffff7fca000 0x00007ffff7ff03f5 Yes /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 0x00007ffff7cd7040 0x00007ffff7cd7116 Yes /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/dlmopen/dlmopen-lib.2.so Notice that every copy of /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is mapped at the same address. As the inferior closes the libraries that it loaded, the various copies of the dynamic linker will also be unloaded. Currently, when this happens GDB calls notify_solib_unloaded, which triggers the gdb::observers::solib_unloaded observer. This observer will call disable_breakpoints_in_unloaded_shlib (in breakpoint.c), which disables any breakpoints in the unloaded solib. The problem with this, is that, when the dynamic linker (or any solib) is only really mapped once as is the case here, we only want to disable breakpoints in the library when the last instance of the library is unloaded. The first idea that comes to mind is that GDB should not emit the solib_unloaded notification if a shared library is still in use, however, this could break MI consumers. Currently, every time a copy of ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is unloaded, GDB's MI interpreter will emit a =library-unloaded event. An MI consumer might use this to update the library list that it displays to the user, and fewer notify_solib_unloaded calls will mean fewer MI events, which will mean the MI consumer's library list could get out of sync with GDB. Instead I propose that we extend GDB's solib_unloaded event to add a new flag. The new flag indicates if the library mapping is still in use within the inferior. Now the MI will continue to emit the expected =library-unloaded events, but disable_breakpoints_in_unloaded_shlib can check the new flag, when it is true (indicating that the library is still mapped into the inferior), no breakpoints should be disabled. The other user of the solib_unloaded observer, in bsd-uthread.c, should, I think, do nothing if the mapping is still in use. This observer is also disabling breakpoints when a library is unloaded. Most of the changes in this commit relate to passing the new flag around for the event. The interesting changes are mostly in solib.c, where the flag value is determined, and in breakpoint.c and bsd-uthread.c, where the flag value is read. There's a new MI test, the source of which is mostly copied from the gdb.base/dlmopen.exp test. This new test is checking we see all the expected =library-unloaded events.
2025-02-09gdb/testsuite: restructure gdb.base/dlmopen.expAndrew Burgess1-32/+49
In the next commit I want to add more tests to the dlmopen.exp script. Doing this will be easier if the dlmopen.exp script was structured so that the current tests were contained inside separatate procs. So this commit moves all of the current tests within dlmopen into two procs, and then calls these. There should be no changes to what is actually being tested in this commit.
2025-02-09gdb: Support some escaping of args with startup-with-shell being offMichael Weghorn4-131/+268
I (Andrew Burgess) have taken this patch from this series: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/20211022071933.3478427-1-m.weghorn@posteo.de/ I started off reviewing that series, but wanted to explore some alternative strategies for solving the problems this series addresses. However, this patch I think is super useful, so I've taken it mostly as it was in the original series. I have made a few minor cleanups, and I've also added some more tests. Any bugs should be considered mine (Andrew's), but I've left the original author (Michael Weghorn) in place as the GDB side changes are mostly their work. The function execv_argv::init_for_no_shell (gdb/nat/fork-inferior.c), is passed a single string ALLARGS containing all of the inferior arguments, and contains some custom code for splitting this argument string into a vector of separate arguments. This function is used when startup-with-shell is off (which is not the default). The algorithm in this function was just splitting on whitespace characters, and ignoring any quoting, so for example: (gdb) set startup-with-shell off (gdb) set args "first arg" second_arg would result in three arguments ("first), (arg"), and (second_arg) being passed to the inferior (the parenthesis are not part of the parsed arguments). This commit replaces this custom argument splitting with a use of the existing gdb_argv class (which uses the libiberty buildargv function). This does a better job of supporting quoting and escaping, so for the example given above we now pass two arguments (first arg) and (second_arg), which is certainly what I would have expected as a GDB user. This commit changes the 'execv_argv' class accordingly and drops the optimization to have all the 'char *' in 'm_argv' point to a single string rather than allocating a separate string for each arg. This is needed because we are now going to be stripping some escaping from the arguments, for example: (gdb) set startup-with-shell off (gdb) set args "literal \$" In this case we will pass the single argument (literal $) to the inferior, the escaping backslash will be removed. This might seem strange as usually the backslash would be stripped by the shell, and now we have no shell. However, I think the consistent behaviour is a good thing; whether we start with a shell or not the escaping will be removed. Using gdb_argv will mean that quote characters are also stripped. If we consider the first example again: (gdb) set startup-with-shell off (gdb) set args "first arg" second_arg This is now going to pass (first arg) and (second_arg), the quotes have been removed. If the user did want the original behaviour then they are going to have to now do this: (gdb) set startup-with-shell off (gdb) set args \"first arg\" second_arg or they could do this: (gdb) set startup-with-shell off (gdb) set args '"first' 'arg"' second_arg This commit also extends the three tests that cover inferior argument passing to cover the case where 'startup-with-shell' is off. All of these new tests pass for native targets, but there are still problems when using remote targets. The remote target problems arise because of how escaping is handled while passing arguments to remote targets. I have a larger series that aims to address this issue: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/cover.1730731085.git.aburgess@redhat.com This patch was originally part of that series, but getting a 14 patch series reviewed is not easy, so I've pulled this patch out on its own for now, and the new tests are (rather crudely) disabled for remote targets. My hope is to work through my 14 patch series posting all of the patches in smaller groups, which will hopefully make reviewing easier. As more of that series gets merged, the remote argument handling will improve, before, eventually, no tests will need to be disabled.

2025-02-08gdb/tui: use wrefresh if output is not surpressedAndrew Burgess3-1/+126
Recent work in the TUI has improved GDB's use of the curses wnoutrefresh and doupdate mechanism, which improves performance by batching together updates and then doing a single set of writes to the screen when doupdate is finally called. The tui_batch_rendering type is a RAII class which, in its destructor, calls doupdate to send the batched updates to the screen. However, if there is no tui_batch_rendering active on the call stack then any wnoutrefresh calls will remain batched but undisplayed until the next time doupdate happens to be called. This problem can be seen in PR gdb/32623. When an inferior is started the 'Starting program' message is not immediately displayed to the user. The 'Starting program' message originates from run_command_1 in infcmd.c, the message is sent to the current_uiout, which will be the TUI ui_out. After the message is sent, ui_out::flush() is called, here's the backtrace when that happens: #0 tui_file::flush (this=0x36e4ab0) at ../../src/gdb/tui/tui-file.c:42 #1 0x0000000001004f4b in pager_file::flush (this=0x36d35f0) at ../../src/gdb/utils.c:1531 #2 0x0000000001004f71 in gdb_flush (stream=0x36d35f0) at ../../src/gdb/utils.c:1539 #3 0x00000000006975ab in cli_ui_out::do_flush (this=0x35a50b0) at ../../src/gdb/cli-out.c:250 #4 0x00000000009fd1f9 in ui_out::flush (this=0x35a50b0) at ../../src/gdb/ui-out.h:263 #5 0x00000000009f56ad in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_NORMAL) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:449 #6 0x00000000009f599a in run_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:511 And if we check out tui_file::flush (tui-file.c) we can see that this just calls tui_win_info::refresh_window(), which in turn, just uses wnoutrefresh to batch any pending output. The problem is that, in the above backtrace, there is no tui_batch_rendering active, and so there will be no doupdate call to flush the output to the screen. We could add a tui_batch_rendering into tui_file::flush. And tui_file::write. And tui_file::puts ..... ... but that all seems a bit unnecessary. Instead, I propose that tui_win_info::refresh_window() should be changed. If suppress_output is true (i.e. a tui_batch_rendering is active) then we should continue to call wnoutrefresh(). But if suppress_output is false, meaning that no tui_batch_rendering is in place, then we should call wrefresh(), which immediately writes the output to the screen. Testing but PR gdb/32623 was a little involved. We need to 'run' the inferior and check for the 'Starting program' message. But DejaGNUU can only check for the message once it knows the message should have appeared. But, as the bug is that output is not displayed, we don't have any output hints that the inferior is started yet... In the end, I have the inferior create a file in the test's output directory. Now DejaGNU can send the 'run' command, and wait for the file to appear. Once that happens, we know that the 'Starting program' message should have appeared.

2025-02-06gdb/testsuite: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp against installed binariesLancelot SIX3-25/+29
It is possible to run GDB's testsuite against installed binaries rather than the one from the build tree. For example, one could do: $ make check-gdb RUNTESTFLAGS=GDB=/usr/bin/gdb Running the testsuite this way causes error for gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: Running [...]/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/gcorebg.exp ... FAIL: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: detached=detached: Spawned gcore finished FAIL: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: detached=detached: Core file generated by gcore FAIL: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: detached=standard: Spawned gcore finished FAIL: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: detached=standard: Core file generated by gcore This is due to 2 problems. First, when running this way, the $GDB_DATA_DIRECTORY is not set (on purpose) as the installed GDB does not need to be specified where to find it. See this section in gdb/testsuite/lib/gdb.exp: if ![info exists GDB] { [....] } else { # If the user specifies GDB on the command line, and doesn't # specify GDB_DATA_DIRECTORY, then assume we're testing an # installed GDB, and let it use its own configured data directory. if ![info exists GDB_DATA_DIRECTORY] { set GDB_DATA_DIRECTORY "" } } The testbg.exp file always assumes a non-empty GDB_DATA_DIRECTORY. As a consequence, when calling the gcorebg binary with an empty argument (i.e. missing argument), the program fails: gcorebg: [...]/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/gcorebg.c:42: main: Assertion `argc == 5' failed. FAIL: gdb.base/gcorebg.exp: detached=standard: Spawned gcore finished This patch does adjust the gcorebg.c and gcorebg.exp files to allow not specifying the data-directory. The other issue is that the testsuite assumes that the `gcore` to test is always the one from the build tree. However, if someone is testing an installed binary by setting GDB, I think that person would expect to test the `gcore` script next to the binary that was specified (unless GCORE is specified to explicitly specified). This patch does that adjustment as well. To that end, it needs to move the block setting GCORE after the block setting GDB.

2025-02-05Print only process ptids from linux-fork.cKevin Buettner2-13/+28
This commit causes a "process ptid" to be passed to all calls of target_pid_to_str in linux-fork.c. A "process ptid" is one in which only the pid component is set to a non-zero value; both the lwp and tid components are zero. The reason for doing this is that pids associated with checkpoints can never be a thread due to the fact that checkpoints (which are implemented by forking a process) can only (reasonably) work with single-threaded processes. Without this commit, many of the "info checkpoints" commands in gdb.multi/checkpoint-multi.exp will incorrectly show some of the checkpoints as threads. E.g...

2025-02-05Make linux checkpoints work with multiple inferiorsKevin Buettner5-184/+1230
The current linux checkpoint code, most of which may be found in linux-fork.c, is quite broken when attempting to use more than one inferior. Running GDB will show internal errors when starting two inferiors, placing a checkpoint in one, then switching to the other and doing one of the following commands, "restart", "detach", "kill", or continue (to program exit). Test cases for two of those scenarios may be found in this bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31065 I've tested for each of the scenarios and many more in the new test case, gdb.multi/checkpoint-multi.exp. I started off with the goal of fixing just those problems, and was mostly successful with a much smaller patch, but doing "info checkpoints" with more than one inferior didn't work correctly due to some of the inferiors being in the wrong program space. That led me to making the linux-fork code fully inferior-aware. Prior to this commit, the list of forks was being maintained in a global named named 'fork_list'. I turned this into a per-inferior data structure. There was also global named 'highest_fork_num' which is also now part of the per-inferior struct. A registry key named 'checkpoint_inferior_data_key' along with function 'get_checkpoint_inferior_data' is used to access the per-inferior data. This new function, get_checkpoint_inferior_data, is only called by the new functions 'fork_list', 'reset_highest_fork_num', and increment_highest_fork_num, each of which is passed a pointer to the inferior. Most occurrences referring to the (previously) global 'fork_list' have been replaced by 'fork_list (inf)'. In some functions, where the 'fork_list' is referenced multiple times, a local named 'fork_list' is declared and initialized instead, like this: auto &fork_list = ::fork_list (inf); The constructor for 'struct fork_info' has gained an additional parameter. In addition to passing the pid of the new fork, we now also pass the fork identifier, fork_num, to the constructor. This integer is shown to the user in the "info checkpoints" command and is provided by the user, perhaps in conjunction with the inferior number, in commands which manipulate checkpoints, e.g. 'restart' and 'delete checkpoint'. When checkpoints are used in only one inferior, this commit will present information to the user and will accept checkpoint identifiers to commands in much the same way as the code did before this commit. Per Pedro Alves's recommendations, the "info checkpoints" command has been changed somewhat. "info checkpoints" used to display "(main process)" for the first process in the checkpoint list. This is no longer done because it does not provide useful information. It also used to display "<running>", when the process is running and no useful frame information may be displayed. This has been changed to "(running)" in order to be more consistent with the output of the "info threads" command. A new column has been added to the output for showing the active process in the output from "info checkpoints". This column will display 'y' for the active process and 'n' for the others. For the active inferior a '*' is also printed preceding the checkpoint identifier. Here's what things look(ed) like before and after for just one inferior: Before: (gdb) info checkpoints * 0 Thread 0x7ffff7cd3740 (LWP 84201) (main process) at 0x40114a, file hello.c, line 28 1 process 84205 at 0x401199, file hello.c, line 51 2 process 84206 at 0x4011a3, file hello.c, line 53 After: (gdb) info checkpoints Id Active Target Id Frame * 0 y process 551311 at 0x40114a, file hello.c, line 28 1 n process 551314 at 0x401199, file hello.c, line 51 2 n process 551315 at 0x4011a3, file hello.c, line 53 (The Thread versus process distinction is handled by another patch - the "After" example assumes that patch is applied too.) When there are multiple inferiors, the "info checkpoints" output looks like this: (gdb) info checkpoints Id Active Target Id Frame 1.0 y process 535276 at 0x401199, file hello.c, line 51 1.1 n process 535283 at 0x401199, file hello.c, line 51 1.2 n process 535288 at 0x401199, file hello.c, line 51 2.1 n process 535280 at 0x401258, file goodbye.c, line 62 2.2 y process 535284 at 0x401258, file goodbye.c, line 62 * 3.0 y process 535285 at 0x40115c, file hangout.c, line 31 3.2 n process 535287 at 0x40115c, file hangout.c, line 31 A new function named 'parse_checkpoint_id' has been added. As its name suggests, it's responsible for parsing a string representing a checkpoint identifier. These identifiers may be either a decimal number representing the checkpoint number in the current inferior or two decimal numbers separated by '.', in which case the first is the inferior number and the second is the checkpoint number in that inferior. It is called by delete_checkpoint_command, detach_checkpoint_command, info_checkpoints_command, and restart_command. Calls to 'parse_checkpoint_id' replace calls to 'parse_and_eval_long', plus error checking and error reporting code near the calls to 'parse_and_eval_long'. As such, error checking and reporting has been consolidated into a single function and the messages output are more uniform, though this has necessitated changes to the existing test case gdb.base/checkpoint.exp. The functions 'find_fork_ptid' and 'find_fork_pid' used to return a pointer to a fork_info struct. They now return a pair consisting of the pointer to a fork_info struct in addition to a pointer to the inferior containing that checkpoint. 'find_fork_id' returns a pointer to a fork_info struct just as it did before, but it's now gained a new parameter, 'inf', which is the inferior in which to look. info_checkpoints_command used to simply iterate over the list of forks (checkpoints), printing each one out. It now needs to iterate over all inferiors and, for those which have checkpoints, it needs to iterate over the list of checkpoints in that inferior. As noted earlier, the format of the output has been changed so that checkpoint identifiers incorporating an inferior number may be printed. linux_fork_context, called by restart_command, now contains code to switch inferiors when the fork being restarted is in an inferior which is different from the current one. The scoped_switch_fork_info class now also contains code for switching inferiors in both the constructor and destructor. gdb/linux-nat.c has a few changes. All but one of them are related to passing the inferior to one of the linux-fork functions. But one of the tests in linux_nat_target::detach has also changed in a non-obvious way. In attempting to determine whether to call linux_fork_detach(), that code used to do: if (pid == inferior_ptid.pid () && forks_exist_p ()) It's been simplified to: if (forks_exist_p (inf)) I had added the 'pid == inferior_ptid.pid ()' condition in late 2023 while working on a detach bug. It was kind of a hack to prevent calling linux_fork_detach() when in a different inferior. That's no longer needed since the call to forks_exist_p does this directly - i.e. it is now inferior-aware. Finally, the header file 'linux-fork.h' has been updated to reflect the fact that add_fork, linux_fork_killall, linux_fork_detach, and forks_exist_p all now require that a pointer to an inferior be passed to these functions. Additionally (as mentioned earlier), find_fork_pid now returns std::pair<fork_info *, inferior *> instead 'of fork_info *'.

2025-02-05gdb: restrict configure error with all targets and 64 bit bfd to mipsGuinevere Larsen2-6/+20
The recent commit b601c58034ed755fb765fc13782b6876bffd25d4 causes the gdb configure to fail if --enable-targets=all was requested, but 64 bit bfd was not enabled. This was due to a build failure first reported against mips, and that I also encountered building on a 32 bit mips system, but that looked like a general failure. Further examination showed that this is, in fact, mips-specific (or at least, not completely generic) as other targets like debian-i386 and 32-bit arm could build all targets just fine. This commit restricts the new error to only trigger in mips hosts. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>

Run `pre-commit autoupdate`. This picks up a fresh Black version from 2025, and with it comes a small but welcome formatting change. There is a new version of isort as well, but no formatting change there. Change-Id: Ie654a9c14c3a4096893011082668efb57c166fa4
2025-02-03[gdb/syscalls] Sync with strace v6.13Tom de Vries31-87/+91
After syncing with strace v6.13 using: ... $ update-linux-defaults.sh ~/upstream/strace.git ... we have a few new entries in linux-defaults.xml.in: ... <syscall name="getxattrat" groups="descriptor,file"/> <syscall name="listxattrat" groups="descriptor,file"/> <syscall name="removexattrat" groups="descriptor,file"/> <syscall name="setxattrat" groups="descriptor,file"/> ... Regenerate most *-linux.xml.in files using: ... $ ./update-linux-from-src.sh ~/upstream/linux-stable.git ... updating the copyright years, and do so manually for the remaining two. Then regenerate *-linux.xml using make, propagating the groups changes and copyright years. Tested on x86_64-linux. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>
2025-02-02Avoid "text file busy" in dw2-using-debug-str.expTom Tromey1-0/+12
When I run: runtest dw2-using-debug-str.exp ... if I examine the gdb.log, I see: objcopy: unable to copy file '[...]/dw2-using-debug-str'; reason: Text file busy This happens because the inferior is still running, and objcopy -- despite the invocation seemingly not needing this -- tries to open it for writing. This patch works around the objcopy oddity by having gdb exit (killing the inferior) before the invocation. Fixing this points out that the test does not work in the --target_board=cc-with-gdb-index case. This patch also arranges to issue an "untested" here.
2025-01-31Remove obsolete test from gdb.cp/var-tag.expTom Tromey1-10/+1
There is a test in gdb.cp/var-tag.exp that is kfail'd. I happened across this while working on another series and found that the PR it referenced was closed as invalid. On that basis I think the test should be deleted. Reviewed-By: Keith Seitz <keiths@redhat.com>
2025-01-31Show type- and function-domain in maint print psymbolsTom Tromey1-0/+6
I neglected to update "maint print psymbols" when adding TYPE_DOMAIN and FUNCTION_DOMAIN. This would have been mildly helpful when debugging a series I am working on. This patch corrects the oversight. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>
2025-01-31Use "false" when setting cli_stylingTom Tromey1-1/+1
I noticed a spot that uses 0 where "false" is more appropriate.
2025-01-31Add space in name of Rust tuple typeTom Tromey1-1/+1
The Rust compiler emits tuple type names with a space after the comma, like "(i32, f64)". This changes rust-parse.c to follow. This isn't ideal -- probably the DWARF reader should canonicalize these names -- but it is a bit more robust if symbol lookup should change; and anyway this feature of gdb is probably rarely used.
2025-01-30Use "require" a two gdb.dwarf2 test filesTom Tromey2-9/+3
A couple of ".tcl" files in gdb.dwarf2 escaped notice during the "require" refactoring. This patch fixes these to use "require" rather than if/return.
2025-01-30gdb: add first gdbreplay test, connect.expAlexandra Hájková3-0/+294
When the changes on the remote protocol are made, we want to test all the corner cases to prevent regressions. Currently it can be tricky to simulate some corner case conditions that would expose possible regressions. When I want to add or change the remote protocol packet, I need to hack gdbserver to send a corrupted packet or an error to make sure GDB is able to handle such a case. This test makes it easy to send a corruped packet or an error message to GDB using the gdbreplay tool and check GDB deals with it as we expect it to. This test starts a communication with gdbsever setting the remotelog file. Then, it modifies the remotelog with update_log proc, injects an error message instead of the expected replay to the vMustReplyEmpty packet in order to test GDB reacts to the error response properly. After the remotelog modification, this test restarts GDB and starts communication with gdbreply instead of the gdbserver using the remotelog. Add a lib/gdbreplay-support.exp. update_log proc matches lines from GDB to gdbserver in a remotelogfile. Once a match is found then the custom line is used to build a replacement line to send from gdbserver to GDB. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>

2025-01-30[gdb/testsuite] Handle unordered dict in gdb.python/py-mi-notify.expTom de Vries1-1/+4
With test-case gdb.python/py-mi-notify.exp and python 3.4, I occasionally run into: ... python gdb.notify_mi('-test-notification', { 'data1' : 1 , 'data2' : 2 }) &"python gdb.notify_mi('-test-notification', { 'data1' : 1 , 'data2' : 2 })\n" =-test-notification,data2="2",data1="1" ^done (gdb) FAIL: $exp: python notification, with additional data (unexpected output) ... In contrast, a passing version looks like: ... python gdb.notify_mi('-test-notification', { 'data1' : 1 , 'data2' : 2 }) &"python gdb.notify_mi('-test-notification', { 'data1' : 1 , 'data2' : 2 })\n" =-test-notification,data1="1",data2="2" ^done (gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-mi-notify.exp: python notification, with additional data ... The python method "gdb.notify_mi(name, data)" has parameter data which is a dictionary, and it iterates over that dictionary. The problem is that dictionaries are only guaranteed to be iterating in insertion order starting python 3.7 (though cpython does this starting python 3.6). Fix this in the same way as in commit 362a867f2ac ("[gdb/testsuite] Handle unordered dict in gdb.python/py-mi-cmd.exp"): by allowing the alternative order. Tested on x86_64-linux.
2025-01-29Use command style in cmd_show_listTom Tromey3-8/+13
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.
2025-01-29Remove "enabled" output from show_index_cache_commandTom Tromey1-5/+0
show_index_cache_command prints whether the index-cache is enabled. This text was added back in 2018 in commit 87d6a7aa (Add DWARF index cache). Then in 2021, the enabling option was changed via commit 7bc5c369 (gdb: introduce "set index-cache enabled", deprecate "set index-cache on/off"). This latter change made this output, IMO, redundant. That is, currently gdb will show: (gdb) show index-cache ... index-cache enabled: The index cache is off. ... The index cache is currently disabled. This patch removes the redundant output.
2025-01-29Use command style in "help" commandTom Tromey9-70/+80
This changes the help command to use the new command style when displaying text like: List of "catch" subcommands: As a side effect, this mildly -- but not hugely -- cleans up some i18n issues in help_list. The header comment for that function is also changed to the gdb style. Finally, this function used to print something like: Type "help catch" followed by catch subcommand name for full documentation. The second "catch" here seems redundant to me, so this patch removes it.
