When running with target board cc-with-gdb-index, we run into:
...
(gdb) file dw2-using-debug-str-no-debug-str^M

When printing the fields of a register that is of a custom struct type,
the "unpack_bits_as_long ()" function is used:
do_val_print (...)
cp_print_value_fields (...)
value_field_bitfield (...)
unpack_value_bitfield (...)
unpack_bits_as_long (...)
This function may sign-extend the extracted field while returning it:
val >>= lsbcount;
if (...)
{
valmask = (((ULONGEST) 1) << bitsize) - 1;
val &= valmask;
if (!field_type->is_unsigned ())
if (val & (valmask ^ (valmask >> 1)))
val |= ~valmask;
}
return val;
lsbcount: Number of lower bits to get rid of.
bitsize: The bit length of the field to be extracted.
val: The register value.
field_type: The type of field that is being handled.
While the logic here is correct, there is a problem when it is
handling "field_type"s of "boolean". Those types are NOT marked
as "unsigned" and therefore they end up being sign extended.
Although this is not a problem for "false" (0), it definitely
causes trouble for "true".
This patch constructs the builtin boolean type as such that it is
marked as an "unsigned" entity.
The issue tackled here was first encountered for arc-elf32 target
running on an x86_64 machine. The unit-test introduced in this change
has passed for all the targets (--enable-targets=all) running on the
same x86_64 host.

classes with a specialization of iterator_range.

I noticed that exception_print_same is only used in a single spot, and
it seemed to be better as an operator!= method attached to
gdb_exception.

The assertion
gdb_assert (nr_bits >= 1 && nr_bits <= type_bitsize);
is not correct. Well, it's correct in that we do want the number of
bits to be in the range [1, type_bitsize]. But we don't check anywhere
that the end of the specified flag is within the containing type.
The following code should generate a failed assertion, as the flag goes
past the 32 bits of the underlying type, but it's currently not caught:
static void
test_print_flag (gdbarch *arch)
{
type *flags_type = arch_flags_type (arch, "test_type", 32);
type *field_type = builtin_type (arch)->builtin_uint32;
append_flags_type_field (flags_type, 31, 2, field_type, "invalid");
}
(You can test this by registering it as a selftest using
selftests::register_test_foreach_arc and running.)
Change the assertion to verify that the end bit is within the range of
the underlying type. This implicitly verifies that nr_bits is not
too big as well, so we don't need a separate assertion for that.

This improves the output of info threads when debugging multiple
inferiors (e.g. after a fork with detach_on_fork disabled).
|
|
- Don't use #ifdef's on ptrace ops. obsd-nat.h didn't include
<sys/ptrace.h>, so the virtual methods weren't always overridden
causing the fork following to not work. In addition, the thread and
fork code is intertwined in ::wait and and the lack of #ifdef's
there already assumed both were present. Finally, both of these
ptrace ops have been present in OpenBSD for at least 10 years.
- Move duplicated code to enable PTRACE_FORK event reporting to a
single function and invoke it on new child processes reported via
PTRACE_FORK.
- Don't return early from PTRACE_FORK handling, but instead reset
wptid to the correct ptid if the child reports its event before the
parent. This allows the ptid fixup code to add thread IDs if the
first event for a process is a PTRACE_FORK event. This also
properly returns ptid's with thread IDs when reporting PTRACE_FORK
events.
- Handle detach_fork by skipping the PT_DETACH.
|
|
- Call inf_ptrace_target::wait instead of duplicating the code.
Replace a check for WIFSTOPPED on the returned status from waitpid
by checking for TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED in the parsed status as is
done in fbsd_nat_target::wait.
- Don't use inferior_ptid when deciding if a new process is a child vs
parent of the fork. Instead, use find_inferior_pid and assume that
if an inferior already exists, the pid in question is the parent;
otherwise, the pid is the child.
- Don't use inferior_ptid when deciding if the ptid of the process
needs to be updated with an LWP ID, or if this is a new thread.
Instead, use the approach from fbsd-nat which is to check if a ptid
without an LWP exists and if so update the ptid of that thread
instead of adding a new thread.

On BSDs, get_status is set in _initialize_x86_bsd_nat, but only if
HAVE_PT_GETDBREGS is defined. PT_GETDBREGS doesn't exist on OpenBSD, so
get_status (and the other fields of x86_dr_low) are left as nullptr.
OpenBSD doesn't support getting or setting the x86 debug registers, so
fix by omitting debug register support entirely on OpenBSD:
- Change x86bsd_nat_target to only inherit from x86_nat_target if
PT_GETDBREGS is supported.
- Don't include x86-nat.o and nat/x86-dregs.o for OpenBSD/amd64. They
were already omitted for OpenBSD/i386.

The width of the window is too narrow to display the entire assembly line.
The width of the columns in the window changes as the test walks thru the
terminal window output. The column change results in the first and second
reads of the same line to differ thus causing the test to fail. Increasing
the width of the window keeps the column width consistent thru the test.
If the test fails, the added check prints an message to the log file if
the failure may be due to the window being too narrow.

Calling the `make-value' procedure with an integer value and a pointer

Adds API to the Guile bindings for creating temporary breakpoints and
querying whether an existing breakpoint object is temporary. This is
effectively a transliteration of the Python implementation.

Python implementation, but might be a bit surprising for users.

Clean up some things I noticed:
- we generate a regformats/microblaze-with-stack-protect.dat file. I
don't think this is used. It could be used by a GDBserver built for
Microblaze, but GDBserver isn't ported to Microblaze. So I don't
think that's used at all. Remove the entry in features/Makefile and
the file itself.
- There are a bunch of *-expedite values in features/Makefile for
architectures for which we don't generate dat files. AFAIK, these
*-expedite values are only used when generating dat files. Remove
those that are not necessary.
- 32bit-segments.xml is not listed in the Makfile, but it's used. This
means that it wouldn't get re-generated if we were to change how C
files are generated from the XML. It looks like it was simply
forgotten, add it.

Fixes PR gdb/28121. When a user declares an array like this:
int * const foo_1[3];
And in GDB the user does this:
(gdb) info variables foo
All variables matching regular expression "foo":
File test.c:
1: int * constfoo_1[3];
Notice the missing space between 'const' and 'foo_1'. This is fixed
in c_type_print_varspec_prefix (c-typeprint.c) by passing through the
flag that indicates if a trailing space is needed, rather than hard
coding the flag to false as we currently do.

[ I've confused things by forgetting to add -gdwarf-4 in $subject of
commit 0057a7ee0d9 "[gdb/testsuite] Add KFAILs for gdb.ada FAILs with
gcc-11". So I'm adding here -gdwarf-5 in $subject, even though -gdwarf-5 is
the default for gcc-11. I keep getting confused because of working with a
system gcc-11 compiler that was patched to switch the default back to
-gdwarf-4. ]
When running test-case gdb.ada/arrayptr.exp with gcc-11 (and default
-gdwarf-5), I run into:
...
(gdb) print pa_ptr.all^M
Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0xff^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/arrayptr.exp: scenario=all: print pa_ptr.all
...
What happens is that pa_ptr:
...
<2><1523>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_variable)
<1524> DW_AT_name : pa_ptr
<1529> DW_AT_type : <0x14fa>
...
has type:
...
<2><14fa>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_typedef)
<14fb> DW_AT_name : foo__packed_array_ptr
<1500> DW_AT_type : <0x1504>
<2><1504>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<1505> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
<1505> DW_AT_type : <0x1509>
...
which is a pointer to a subrange:
...
<2><1509>: Abbrev Number: 12 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<150a> DW_AT_lower_bound : 0
<150b> DW_AT_upper_bound : 0x3fffffffffffffffff
<151b> DW_AT_name : foo__packed_array
<151f> DW_AT_type : <0x15cc>
<1523> DW_AT_artificial : 1
<1><15cc>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<15cd> DW_AT_byte_size : 16
<15ce> DW_AT_encoding : 7 (unsigned)
<15cf> DW_AT_name : long_long_long_unsigned
<15d3> DW_AT_artificial : 1
...
with upper bound of form DW_FORM_data16.
In gdb/dwarf/attribute.h we have:
...
/* Return non-zero if ATTR's value falls in the 'constant' class, or
zero otherwise. When this function returns true, you can apply
the constant_value method to it.
...
DW_FORM_data16 is not considered as constant_value cannot handle
that. */
bool form_is_constant () const;
...
so instead we have attribute::form_is_block (DW_FORM_data16) == true.
Then in attr_to_dynamic_prop for the upper bound, we get a PROC_LOCEXPR
instead of a PROP_CONST and end up trying to evaluate the constant
0x3fffffffffffffffff as if it were a locexpr, which causes the
"Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0xff".
In contrast, with -gdwarf-4 we have:
...
<164c> DW_AT_upper_bound : 18 byte block: \
9e 10 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 3f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \
(DW_OP_implicit_value 16 byte block: \
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 3f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 )
...
Fix the dwarf error by translating the DW_FORM_data16 constant into a
PROC_LOCEXPR, effectively by prepending 0x9e 0x10, such that we have same
result as with -gdwarf-4:
...
(gdb) print pa_ptr.all^M
That operation is not available on integers of more than 8 bytes.^M
(gdb) KFAIL: gdb.ada/arrayptr.exp: scenario=all: print pa_ptr.all \

This commit was originally part of this patch series:
(v1): https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-May/179357.html
(v2): https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-June/180208.html
(v3): https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/181028.html
However, that series is being held up in review, so I wanted to break
out some of the non-related fixes in order to get these merged.
This commit addresses two semi-related issues, both of which are
problems exposed by using 'set debug frame on'.
The first issue is in frame.c in get_prev_frame_always_1, and was
introduced by this commit:
commit a05a883fbaba69d0f80806e46a9457727fcbe74c
Date: Tue Jun 29 12:03:50 2021 -0400
gdb: introduce frame_debug_printf
This commit replaced fprint_frame with frame_info::to_string.
However, the former could handle taking a nullptr while the later, a
member function, obviously requires a non-nullptr in order to make the
function call. In one place we are not-guaranteed to have a
non-nullptr, and so, there is the possibility of triggering undefined
behaviour.
The second issue addressed in this commit has existed for a while in
GDB, and would cause this assertion:
gdb/frame.c:622: internal-error: frame_id get_frame_id(frame_info*): Assertion `fi->this_id.p != frame_id_status::COMPUTING' failed.
We attempt to get the frame_id for a frame while we are computing the
frame_id for that same frame.
What happens is that when GDB stops we create a frame_info object for
the sentinel frame (frame #-1) and then we attempt to unwind this
frame to create a frame_info object for frame #0.
In the test case used here to expose the issue we have created a
Python frame unwinder. In the Python unwinder we attemt to read the
program counter register.
Reading this register will initially create a lazy register value.
The frame-id stored in the lazy register value will be for the
sentinel frame (lazy register values hold the frame-id for the frame
from which the register will be unwound).
However, the Python unwinder does actually want to examine the value
of the program counter, and so the lazy register value is resolved
into a non-lazy value. This sends GDB into value_fetch_lazy_register
in value.c.
Now, inside this function, if 'set debug frame on' is in effect, then
we want to print something like:
frame=%d, regnum=%d(%s), ....
Where 'frame=%d' will be the relative frame level of the frame for
which the register is being fetched, so, in this case we would expect
to see 'frame=0', i.e. we are reading a register as it would be in
frame #0. But, remember, the lazy register value actually holds the
frame-id for frame #-1 (the sentinel frame).
So, to get the frame_info for frame #0 we used to call:
frame = frame_find_by_id (VALUE_FRAME_ID (val));
Where VALUE_FRAME_ID is:
#define VALUE_FRAME_ID(val) (get_prev_frame_id_by_id (VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID (val)))
That is, we start with the frame-id for the next frame as obtained by
VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID, then call get_prev_frame_id_by_id to get the
frame-id of the previous frame.
The get_prev_frame_id_by_id function finds the frame_info for the
given frame-id (in this case frame #-1), calls get_prev_frame to get
the previous frame, and then calls get_frame_id.
The problem here is that calling get_frame_id requires that we know
the frame unwinder, so then have to try each frame unwinder in turn,
which would include the Python unwinder.... which is where we started,
and thus we have a loop!
To prevent this loop GDB has an assertion in place, which is what
actually triggers.
Solving the assertion failure is pretty easy, if we consider the code
in value_fetch_lazy_register and get_prev_frame_id_by_id then what we
do is:
1. Start with a frame_id taken from a value,
2. Lookup the corresponding frame,
3. Find the previous frame,
4. Get the frame_id for that frame, and
5. Lookup the corresponding frame
6. Print the frame's level
Notice that steps 3 and 5 give us the exact same result, step 4 is
just wasted effort. We could shorten this process such that we drop
steps 4 and 5, thus:
1. Start with a frame_id taken from a value,
2. Lookup the corresponding frame,
3. Find the previous frame,
6. Print the frame's level
This will give the exact same frame as a result, and this is what I
have done in this patch by removing the use of VALUE_FRAME_ID from
value_fetch_lazy_register.
Out of curiosity I looked to see how widely VALUE_FRAME_ID was used,
and saw it was only used in one other place in valops.c:value_assign,
where, once again, we take the result of VALUE_FRAME_ID and pass it to
frame_find_by_id, thus introducing a redundant frame_id lookup.
I don't think the value_assign case risks triggering the assertion
though, as we are unlikely to call value_assign while computing the
frame_id for a frame, however, we could make value_assign slightly
more efficient, with no real additional complexity, by removing the
use of VALUE_FRAME_ID.
So, in this commit, I completely remove VALUE_FRAME_ID, and replace it
with a use of VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID, followed by a direct call to
get_prev_frame_always, this should make no difference in either case,
and resolves the assertion issue from value.c.
As I said, this patch was originally part of another series, the
original test relied on the fixes in that original series. However, I
was able to create an alternative test for this issue by enabling
frame debug within an existing test script.
This commit probably fixes bug PR gdb/27938, though the bug doesn't
have a reproducer attached so it is not possible to know for sure.

The "val_print_type_code_flags ()" function is responsible for
extraction of fields for "flags" data type. These data types are
used when describing a custom register type in a target description
XML. The logic used for the extraction though is not sound:
unsigned field_len = TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, field);
ULONGEST field_val
= val >> (TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS (type, field) - field_len + 1);
TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE: The bit length of the field to be extracted.
TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS: The starting position of the field; 0 is LSB.
val: The register value.
Imagine you have a field that starts at position 1 and its length
is 4 bits. According to the third line of the code snippet the
shifting right would become "val >> -2", or "val >> 0xfff...fe"
to be precise. That will result in a "field_val" of 0.
The correct extraction should be:
ULONGEST field_val = val >> TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS (type, field);
The rest of the algorithm that masks out the higher bits is OK.

Rename gdb/ChangeLog to gdb/ChangeLog-2021
The gdb/ChangeLog file was renamed, but all of the other ChangeLog
files relating to gdb were left in place.
As I understand things, the no ChangeLogs policy applies to all the
GDB related directories, so this commit renames all of the remaining
GDB related ChangeLog files.
As with the original commit, the intention behind this commit is to
hopefully stop people merging ChangeLog entries by mistake.
The renames carried out in this commit are:
gdb/doc/ChangeLog -> gdb/doc/ChangeLog-1991-2021
gdb/stubs/ChangeLog -> gdb/stubs/ChangeLog-2012-2020
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog -> gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog-2014-2021
gdbserver/ChangeLog -> gdbserver/ChangeLog-2002-2021
gdbsupport/ChangeLog -> gdbsupport/ChangeLog-2020-2021

As reported in PR gdb/28076 [1], passing no condition argument to the
-break-condition command (e.g.: "-break-condition 2") should clear the
condition for breakpoint 2, just like CLI's "condition 2", but instead
an error message is returned:
^error,msg="-break-condition: Missing the <number> and/or <expr> argument"
The current implementation of the -break-condition command's argument
handling (79aabb7308c "gdb/mi: add a '--force' flag to the
'-break-condition' command") was done according to the documentation,
where the condition argument seemed mandatory. However, the
-break-condition command originally (i.e. before the 79aabb7308c
patch) used the CLI's "cond" command, and back then not passing a
condition argument was clearing out the condition. So, this is a
regression in terms of the behavior.
Fix the argument handling of the -break-condition command to allow not
having a condition argument, and also update the document to make the
behavior clear. Also add test cases to test the scenarios which were
previously not covered.

When creating a parameter in Guile, you have to create it using
make-parameter and then register it with GDB with register-parameter!.
In between, it's still possible (though not documented) to set the
parameter's value. I broke this use case by mistake while writing this
series, so thought it would be good to have a test for it.
I suppose that people could use this "feature" to give their parameter
an initial value, even though make-parameter has an initial-value
parameter for this. Nevertheless, changing this behavior could break
some scripts, which is why I think it's important for it to be tested.

I don't understand what the sfunc function type in
cmd_list_element::function is for. Compared to cmd_simple_func_ftype,
it has an extra cmd_list_element parameter, giving the callback access
to the cmd_list_element for the command being invoked. This allows
registering the same callback with many commands, and alter the behavior
using the cmd_list_element's context.
From the comment in cmd_list_element, it sounds like at some point it
was the callback function type for set and show functions, hence the
"s". But nowadays, it's used for many more commands that need to access
the cmd_list_element object (see add_catch_command for example).
I don't really see the point of having sfunc at all, since do_sfunc is
just a trivial shim that changes the order of the arguments. All
commands using sfunc could just as well set cmd_list_element::func to
their callback directly.
Therefore, remove the sfunc field in cmd_list_element and everything
that goes with it. Rename cmd_const_sfunc_ftype to cmd_func_ftype and
use it for cmd_list_element::func, as well as for the add_setshow
commands.

After browsing the CLI code for quite a while and trying really hard, I
reached the conclusion that I can't give a meaningful explanation of
what "sfunc" and "cfunc" functions are, in cmd_list_element. I don't
see a logic at all. That makes it very difficult to do any kind of
change. Unless somebody can make sense out of all that, I'd like to try
to retro-fit some logic in the cmd_list_element callback function code
so that we can understand what is going on, do some cleanups and add new
features.
The first change is about "cfunc". I can't figure out what the "c" in
cfunc means. It's not const, because there's already "const" in
"cmd_const_cfunc_ftype", and the previous "cmd_cfunc_ftype" had nothing
const.. It's not "cmd" or "command", because there's already "cmd" in
"cmd_const_cfunc_ftype".
The "main" command callback, cmd_list_element::func, has three
parameters, whereas cfunc has two. It is missing the cmd_list_element
parameter. So the only reason I see for cfunc to exist is to be a shim
between the three and two parameter versions. Most commands don't need
to receive the cmd_list_element object, so adding it everywhere would be
long and would just add more unnecessary boilerplate. So since this is
the "simple" version of the callback, compared to the "full", I suggest
renaming cmd_const_cfunc_ftype into cmd_simple_func_ftype, as well as
everything (like the utility functions) that goes with it.

With the current code, both a NULL pointer and an empty string can mean
"no arguments". We don't need this distinction. Changing to a string
has the advantage that there is now a single state for that (an empty
string), which makes the code a bit simpler in my opinion.

Add cwd/set_cwd to the inferior class, remove set_inferior_args.
Keep get_inferior_args, because it is used from fork_inferior, in shared
code. The cwd could eventually be passed as a parameter eventually,
though, I think that would be cleaner.

Add args/set_args to the inferior class, remove the set_inferior_args

them.

There are currently two states that the inferior args can be stored.
The main one is the `args` field, where they are stored as a single
string. The other one is the `argc`/`argv` fields.
This last one is only used for arguments passed in GDB's
command line. And the only outcome is that when get_inferior_args is
called, `argc`/`argv` are serialized into `args`. So really,
`argc`/`argv` is just a staging area before moving the arguments in
`args`.
Simplify this by only keeping the `args` field. Change
set_inferior_args_vector to immediately serialize the arguments into
`args`, work that would be done in get_inferior_args later anyway.
The only time where this work would be "wasted" is when the user passes
some arguments on the command line, but does not end up running the
program. But that just seems unlikely. And it's not that much work.

The declaration of set_inferior_cwd is currently shared between gdb and
gdbserver, in gdbsupport/common-inferior.h. It doesn't need to be, as
set_inferior_cwd is not called from common code. Only get_inferior_cwd
needs to.
The motivation for this is that a future patch will change the prototype
of set_inferior_cwd in gdb, and I don't want to change it for gdbserver
unnecessarily. I see this as a good cleanup in any case, to reduce to
just the essential what is shared between GDB and GDBserver.

Split in multiple procs, one per topic, and start with a fresh GDB in
each. I find it easier to work on a test with multiple smaller
independent test procedures. For example, it's possible to comment all
but one when working on one. It's also easier to add things without
having to think about the impact on existing tests, and vice-versa.

Split the file into multiple independent test procs, where each proc
starts with a fresh GDB. I find it easier to understand what a test is
doing when each part of the test is isolated and self-contained. It
makes it easier to comment out some parts of the test while working /
debugging a specific part. It also makes it easier to add new things
(which a subsequent patch will do) without fear of impacting another part
of the test.

In spawn_capture_tty_name (lib/gdb.exp) we either set or unset
last_spawn_tty_name depending on whether spawn_out(slave,name) exists
or not.
One situation that might cause spawn_out(slave,name) to not exists is
if the spawn function is called with the argument -leaveopen, which is
how it is called when processes are created as part of a pipeline, the
created process has no tty, instead its output is written to a file
descriptor.
If a pipeline is created consisting of multiple processes then there
will be multiple sequential calls to spawn, all using -leaveopen. The
first of these calls is fine, spawn_out(slave,name) is not set, and so
in spawn_capture_tty_name we unset last_spawn_tty_name. However, on
the second call to spawn, spawn_out(slave,name) is still not set and
so in spawn_capture_tty_name we again try to unset
last_spawn_tty_name, this now throws an error (as last_spawn_tty_name
is already unset).
Fix this issue by using -nocomplain with the call to unset in
spawn_capture_tty_name.
Before this commit I was seeing gdb.base/gnu-debugdata.exp report 1
pass, and 1 unsupported test. After this commit I now see 16 passes
from this test script.
I have also improved the code that used to do this:
if { [info exists spawn_out] } {
set ::last_spawn_tty_name $spawn_out(slave,name)
} else {
...
}
The problem here is that we check for the existence of spawn_out, and
then unconditionally read spawn_out(slave,name). A situation could
arise where some other element of spawn_out is set,
e.g. spawn_out(foo), in which case we would enter the if block and try
to read a non-existent variable. After this commit we now check
specifically for spawn_out(slave,name).
Finally, it is worth noting that before this issue was fixed runtest
itself, or rather the expect process behind runtest, would segfault
while exiting. I haven't looked at all into what the problem is here
that caused expect to crash, as fixing the bug in GDB's testing
scripts made the segfault go away.
