gdb: Respect field width and alignment for 'fmt' fields in CLI output
Currently the method 'cli_ui_out::do_field_fmt' has this comment: /* This is the only field function that does not align. */ The reality is even slightly worse, the 'fmt' field type doesn't respect either the field alignment or the field width. In at least one place in GDB we attempt to work around this lack of respect for field width by adding additional padding manually. But, as is often the case, this is leading to knock on problems. Conside the output for 'info breakpoints' when a breakpoint has multiple locations. This example is taken from the testsuite, from test gdb.opt/inline-break.exp: (gdb) info breakpoints Num Type Disp Enb Address What 1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE> 1.1 y 0x00000000004004ae in func4b at /src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.opt/inline-break.c:64 1.2 y 0x0000000000400682 in func4b at /src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.opt/inline-break.c:64 The miss-alignment of the fields shown here is exactly as GDB currently produces. With this patch 'fmt' style fields are now first written into a temporary buffer, and then written out as a 'string' field. The result is that the field width, and alignment should now be respected. With this patch in place the output from GDB now looks like this: (gdb) info breakpoints Num Type Disp Enb Address What 1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE> 1.1 y 0x00000000004004ae in func4b at /src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.opt/inline-break.c:64 1.2 y 0x0000000000400682 in func4b at /src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.opt/inline-break.c:64 This patch has been tested on x86-64/Linux with no regressions, however, the testsuite doesn't always spot broken output formatting or alignment. I have also audited all uses of 'fmt' fields that I could find, and I don't think there are any other places that specifically try to work around the lack of width/alignment, however, I could have missed something. gdb/ChangeLog: * breakpoint.c (print_one_breakpoint_location): Reduce whitespace, and remove insertion of extra spaces in GDB's output. * cli-out.c (cli_ui_out::do_field_fmt): Update header comment. Layout field into a temporary buffer, and then output it as a string field. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.opt/inline-break.exp: Add test that info breakpoint output is correctly aligned.
