[IRIX] eliminate deprecated_insert_raw_breakpoint uses
The IRIX support wants to set a breakpoint to be hit when the startup
phase is complete, which is where shared libraries have been mapped
in. AFAIU, for most IRIX ports, that location is the entry point.
For MIPS IRIX however, GDB needs to set a breakpoint earlier, in
__dbx_link, as explained by:
#ifdef SYS_syssgi
/* On mips-irix, we need to stop the inferior early enough during
the startup phase in order to be able to load the shared library
symbols and insert the breakpoints that are located in these shared
libraries. Stopping at the program entry point is not good enough
because the -init code is executed before the execution reaches
that point.
So what we need to do is to insert a breakpoint in the runtime
loader (rld), more precisely in __dbx_link(). This procedure is
called by rld once all shared libraries have been mapped, but before
the -init code is executed. Unfortuantely, this is not straightforward,
as rld is not part of the executable we are running, and thus we need
the inferior to run until rld itself has been mapped in memory.
For this, we trace all syssgi() syscall exit events. Each time
we detect such an event, we iterate over each text memory maps,
get its associated fd, and scan the symbol table for __dbx_link().
When found, we know that rld has been mapped, and that we can insert
the breakpoint at the symbol address. Once the dbx_link() breakpoint
has been inserted, the syssgi() notifications are no longer necessary,
so they should be canceled. */
proc_trace_syscalls_1 (pi, SYS_syssgi, PR_SYSEXIT, FLAG_SET, 0);
#endif
The loop in irix_solib_create_inferior_hook then runs until whichever
breakpoint is hit first, the one set by solib-irix.c or the one set by
procfs.c.
Note the comment in disable_break talks about __dbx_init, but I think
that's a typo for __dbx_link:
- /* Note that it is possible that we have stopped at a location that
- is different from the location where we inserted our breakpoint.
- On mips-irix, we can actually land in __dbx_init(), so we should
- not check the PC against our breakpoint address here. See procfs.c
- for more details. */
This looks very much like referring to the loop in
irix_solib_create_inferior_hook stopping at __dbx_link instead of at
the entry point.
What this patch does is convert these deprecated raw breakpoints to
standard solib_event breakpoints. When the first solib-event
breakpoint is hit, we delete all solib-event breakpoints. We do that
in the so_ops->handle_event hook.
This allows getting rid of the loop in irix_solib_create_inferior_hook
completely, which should allow properly handling signals and other
events in the early startup phase, like in SVR4.
Built on x86_64 Fedora 20 with --enable-targets=all (builds
solib-irix.c).
Joel tested that with an earlier version of this patch "info shared"
after starting a program gave the same list of shared libraries as
before.
