Fix regression introduced in "break *<EXPR>" by explicit location patches.
A relatively recent patch support for explicit locations, and part of that patch cleaned up the way we parse breakpoint locations. Unfortunatly, a small regression crept in for "*<EXPR>" breakpoint locations. In particular, on PIE programs, one can see the issue by doing the following, with any program: (gdb) b *main Breakpoint 1 at 0x51a: file hello.c, line 3. (gdb) run Starting program: /[...]/hello Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Warning: Cannot insert breakpoint 1. Cannot access memory at address 0x51a Warning: Cannot insert breakpoint 1. Cannot access memory at address 0x51a Just for the record, this regression was introduced by: commit a06efdd6effd149a1d392df8d62824e44872003a Date: Tue Aug 11 17:09:35 2015 -0700 Subject: Explicit locations: introduce address locations What happens is that the patch makes the implicit assumption that the address computed the first time is static, as if it was designed to only support litteral expressions (Eg. "*0x1234"). This allows the shortcut of not re-computing the breakpoint location's address when re-setting breakpoints. However, this does not work in general, as demonstrated in the example above. This patch plugs that hole simply by saving the original expression used to compute the address as part of the address location, so as to then re-evaluate that expression during breakpoint re-set. gdb/ChangeLog: * location.h (new_address_location): Add new parameters "addr_string" and "addr_string_len". (get_address_string_location): Add declaration. * location.c (new_address_location): Add new parameters "addr_string" and "addr_string_len". If not NULL, store a copy of the addr_string in the new location as well. (get_address_string_location): New function. (string_to_event_location): Update call to new_address_location. * linespec.c (event_location_to_sals) <ADDRESS_LOCATION>: Save the event location in the parser's state before passing it to convert_address_location_to_sals. * breakpoint.c (create_thread_event_breakpoint): Update call to new_address_location. (init_breakpoint_sal): Get the event location's string, if any, and use it to update call to new_address_location. * python/py-finishbreakpoint.c (bpfinishpy_init): Update call to new_address_location. * spu-tdep.c (spu_catch_start): Likewise. * config/djgpp/fnchange.lst: Add entries for gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break-fun-addr1.c and gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break-fun-addr2.c. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/break-fun-addr.exp: New file. * gdb.base/break-fun-addr1.c: New file. * gdb.base/break-fun-addr2.c: New file.

+# The purpose of this testcase is to verify that, when using a breakpoint
+# location of the form "*<EXPR>" (Eg: "*main"), GDB is able to start
+# the program and stop at the correct location. With programs built
+# as PIE, this means that GDB needs to re-evaluate the location once
+# the program as started, since PIE ensures that the address of all
+# symbols have changed after load.
+#
+# PIE is not always supported by the target system, so instead of
+# creating a testcase building executables with PIE, this testcase
+# takes a slightly different approach. It builds a first program,
+# breaks on *main, and then runs to that breakpoint. It then builds
+# a second program, different from the first one, and loads that
+# executable within the same GDB session. Similarly to the PIE case,
+# the address of main should be different, and therefore GDB should
+# recalculate it. We verify that by checking that running to that
+# breakpoint still works, and that we land at the first instruction
+# of that function in both cases.
