gdb/breakpoint: make a copy of the "commands" command's argument
When GDB reads commands from the input, its internal buffer is re-used for each line. This is usually just fine because commands are executed in order; by the time we read the next line, we are already done with the current line. However, a problematic case is breakpoint commands that are input from a script. The header (e.g. commands 1 2) is overwritten with the next line before the breakpoint numbers are processed completely. For example, suppose we have the following script: break main break main commands 1 2 print 100123 end and source this script: (gdb) source script.gdb Breakpoint 1 at 0x1245: file main.cpp, line 27. Breakpoint 2 at 0x1245: file main.cpp, line 27. No breakpoint number 123. Note the "No breakpoint number 123." error message. This happens because GDB first reads "commands 1 2" into its internal buffer buffer -> "commands 1 2" and then starts parsing the breakpoint numbers. After parsing the first token, the "next token" pointer is as below: buffer -> "commands 1 2" next-token -----------^ So, if we continue parsing, we would tokenize "2" correctly. However, before parsing the next number, GDB reads the commands to attach them to breakpoint 1. Reading the commands causes the buffer to be overwritten: buffer -> " print 100123" next-token -----------^ So, the next time we parse the breakpoint number, we read "123". To fix, simply create a copy of the arguments of the header. gdb/ChangeLog: 2020-09-16 Tankut Baris Aktemur <tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com> * breakpoint.c (commands_command_1): Make a copy of the 'arg' argument. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2020-09-16 Tankut Baris Aktemur <tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com> * gdb.base/bp-cmds-sourced-script.c: New file. * gdb.base/bp-cmds-sourced-script.exp: New test. * gdb.base/bp-cmds-sourced-script.gdb: New file.
