+
+ Implement displaced stepping.
+
+ * gdbarch.sh (max_insn_length): New 'variable'.
+ (displaced_step_copy, displaced_step_fixup)
+ (displaced_step_free_closure, displaced_step_location): New
+ functions.
+ (struct displaced_step_closure): Add forward declaration.
+ * gdbarch.c, gdbarch.h: Regenerated.
+
+ * arch-utils.c: #include "objfiles.h".
+ (simple_displaced_step_copy_insn)
+ (simple_displaced_step_free_closure)
+ (displaced_step_at_entry_point): New functions.
+ * arch-utils.h (simple_displaced_step_copy_insn)
+ (simple_displaced_step_free_closure)
+ (displaced_step_at_entry_point): New prototypes.
+
+ * i386-tdep.c (I386_MAX_INSN_LEN): Rename to...
+ (I386_MAX_MATCHED_INSN_LEN): ... this.
+ (i386_absolute_jmp_p, i386_absolute_call_p)
+ (i386_ret_p, i386_call_p, i386_breakpoint_p, i386_syscall_p)
+ (i386_displaced_step_fixup): New functions.
+ (struct i386_insn, i386_match_insn): Update.
+ (i386_gdbarch_init): Set gdbarch_max_insn_length.
+ * i386-tdep.h (I386_MAX_INSN_LEN): New.
+ (i386_displaced_step_fixup): New prototype.
+ * i386-linux-tdep.c (i386_linux_init_abi): Include "arch-utils.h".
+ Register gdbarch_displaced_step_copy,
+ gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup, gdbarch_displaced_step_free_closure,
+ and gdbarch_displaced_step_location functions.
+
+ * infrun.c (debug_displaced): New variable.
+ (show_debug_displaced): New function.
+ (struct displaced_step_request): New struct.
+ (displaced_step_request_queue, displaced_step_ptid)
+ (displaced_step_gdbarch, displaced_step_closure)

+ (displaced_step_fixup): New functions.
+ (resume): Call displaced_step_prepare.
+ (proceed): Call read_pc once, and remember the value. If using
+ displaced stepping, don't remove breakpoints.
+ (handle_inferior_event): Call displaced_step_fixup. Add some
+ debugging output. When we try to step over a breakpoint, but get
+ a signal to deliver to the thread instead, ensure the step-resume
+ breakpoint is actually inserted. If a thread hop is needed, and
+ displaced stepping is enabled, don't remove breakpoints.
+ (init_wait_for_inferior): Call displaced_step_clear.
+ (_initialize_infrun): Add "set debug displaced" command. Add
+ "maint set can-use-displaced-stepping" command. Clear
+ displaced_step_ptid.
+ * inferior.h (debug_displaced): Declare variable.
+ (displaced_step_dump_bytes): Declare function.
+
+ * Makefile.in (arch-utils.o, i386-linux-tdep.o): Update
+ dependencies.

+/* In non-stop debugging mode, we must take special care to manage
+ breakpoints properly; in particular, the traditional strategy for
+ stepping a thread past a breakpoint it has hit is unsuitable.
+ 'Displaced stepping' is a tactic for stepping one thread past a
+ breakpoint it has hit while ensuring that other threads running
+ concurrently will hit the breakpoint as they should.
+
+ The traditional way to step a thread T off a breakpoint in a
+ multi-threaded program in all-stop mode is as follows:
+
+ a0) Initially, all threads are stopped, and breakpoints are not
+ inserted.
+ a1) We single-step T, leaving breakpoints uninserted.
+ a2) We insert breakpoints, and resume all threads.
+
+ In non-stop debugging, however, this strategy is unsuitable: we
+ don't want to have to stop all threads in the system in order to
+ continue or step T past a breakpoint. Instead, we use displaced
+ stepping:
+
+ n0) Initially, T is stopped, other threads are running, and
+ breakpoints are inserted.
+ n1) We copy the instruction "under" the breakpoint to a separate
+ location, outside the main code stream, making any adjustments
+ to the instruction, register, and memory state as directed by
+ T's architecture.
+ n2) We single-step T over the instruction at its new location.
+ n3) We adjust the resulting register and memory state as directed
+ by T's architecture. This includes resetting T's PC to point
+ back into the main instruction stream.
+ n4) We resume T.
+
+ This approach depends on the following gdbarch methods:
+
+ - gdbarch_max_insn_length and gdbarch_displaced_step_location
+ indicate where to copy the instruction, and how much space must
+ be reserved there. We use these in step n1.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn copies a instruction to a new
+ address, and makes any necessary adjustments to the instruction,
+ register contents, and memory. We use this in step n1.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup adjusts registers and memory after
+ we have successfuly single-stepped the instruction, to yield the
+ same effect the instruction would have had if we had executed it
+ at its original address. We use this in step n3.
+
+ - gdbarch_displaced_step_free_closure provides cleanup.
+
+ The gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn and
+ gdbarch_displaced_step_fixup functions must be written so that
+ copying an instruction with gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn,
+ single-stepping across the copied instruction, and then applying
+ gdbarch_displaced_insn_fixup should have the same effects on the
+ thread's memory and registers as stepping the instruction in place
+ would have. Exactly which responsibilities fall to the copy and
+ which fall to the fixup is up to the author of those functions.
+
+ See the comments in gdbarch.sh for details.
+
+ Note that displaced stepping and software single-step cannot
+ currently be used in combination, although with some care I think
+ they could be made to. Software single-step works by placing
+ breakpoints on all possible subsequent instructions; if the
+ displaced instruction is a PC-relative jump, those breakpoints
+ could fall in very strange places --- on pages that aren't
+ executable, or at addresses that are not proper instruction
+ boundaries. (We do generally let other threads run while we wait
+ to hit the software single-step breakpoint, and they might
+ encounter such a corrupted instruction.) One way to work around
+ this would be to have gdbarch_displaced_step_copy_insn fully
+ simulate the effect of PC-relative instructions (and return NULL)
+ on architectures that use software single-stepping.
+
+ In non-stop mode, we can have independent and simultaneous step
+ requests, so more than one thread may need to simultaneously step
+ over a breakpoint. The current implementation assumes there is
+ only one scratch space per process. In this case, we have to
+ serialize access to the scratch space. If thread A wants to step
+ over a breakpoint, but we are currently waiting for some other
+ thread to complete a displaced step, we leave thread A stopped and
+ place it in the displaced_step_request_queue. Whenever a displaced
+ step finishes, we pick the next thread in the queue and start a new
+ displaced step operation on it. See displaced_step_prepare and
+ displaced_step_fixup for details. */
