Associate dummy_frame with ptid
This patch is to add ptid into dummy_frame and extend frame_id to dummy_frame_id (which has a ptid field). With this change, GDB uses dummy_frame_id (thread ptid and frame_id) to find the dummy frames. Currently, dummy frames are looked up by frame_id, which isn't accurate in non-stop or multi-process mode. The test case gdb.multi/dummy-frame-restore.exp shows the problem and this patch can fix it. Test dummy-frame-restore.exp makes two inferiors stop at different functions, say, inferior 1 stops at f1 while inferior 2 stops at f2. Set a breakpoint to a function, do the inferior call in two inferiors, and GDB has two dummy frames of the same frame_id. When the inferior call is finished, GDB will look up a dummy frame from its stack/list and restore the inferior's regcache. Two inferiors are finished in different orders, the inferiors' states are restored differently, which is wrong. Running dummy-frame-restore.exp under un-patched GDB, we'll get two fails: FAIL: gdb.multi/dummy-frame-restore.exp: inf 2 first: after infcall: bt in inferior 2 FAIL: gdb.multi/dummy-frame-restore.exp: inf 2 first: after infcall: bt in inferior 1 With this patch applied, GDB will choose the correct dummy_frame to restore for a given inferior, because ptid is considered when looking up dummy frames. Two fails above are fixed. Regression tested on x86_64-linux, both native and gdbserver. gdb: 2014-06-27 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * breakpoint.c (check_longjmp_breakpoint_for_call_dummy): Change parameter type to 'struct thread_info *'. Caller updated. * breakpoint.h (check_longjmp_breakpoint_for_call_dummy): Update declaration. * dummy-frame.c (struct dummy_frame_id): New. (dummy_frame_id_eq): New function. (struct dummy_frame) <id>: Change its type to 'struct dummy_frame_id'. (dummy_frame_push): Add parameter ptid and save it in dummy_frame_id. (pop_dummy_frame_bpt): Use ptid of dummy_frame instead of inferior_ptid. (pop_dummy_frame): Assert that the ptid of dummy_frame equals to inferior_ptid. (lookup_dummy_frame): Change parameter type to 'struct dummy_frame_id *'. Callers updated. Call dummy_frame_id_eq instead of frame_id_eq. (dummy_frame_pop): Add parameter ptid. Callers updated. Update comments. Compose dummy_frame_id and pass it to lookup_dummy_frame. (dummy_frame_discard): Add parameter ptid. (dummy_frame_sniffer): Compose dummy_frame_id and call dummy_frame_id_eq instead of frame_id_eq. (fprint_dummy_frames): Print ptid. * dummy-frame.h: Remove comments. (dummy_frame_push): Add ptid in declaration. (dummy_frame_pop, dummy_frame_discard): Likewise. gdb/testsuite: 2014-06-27 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * gdb.multi/dummy-frame-restore.exp: New. * gdb.multi/dummy-frame-restore.c: New. gdb/doc: 2014-06-27 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * gdb.texinfo (Maintenance Commands): Update the output of 'maint print dummy-frames' command.
