2019-10-01Introduce metadata styleTom Tromey43-127/+331
This introduces a new "metadata" style and changes many places in gdb to use it. The idea here is to let the user distinguish gdb output from output that (conceptually at least) comes directly from the inferior. The newly-styled category includes text that gdb traditionally surrounds in "<...>", like "<unavailable>". I only added a single test for this. In many cases this output is difficult to test. Also, while developing this errors in the implementation of the new printf formats showed up as regressions. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * p-lang.c (pascal_printstr): Use metadata style. * value.c (show_convenience): Use metadata style. * valprint.c (valprint_check_validity, val_print_optimized_out) (val_print_not_saved, val_print_unavailable) (val_print_invalid_address, generic_val_print, val_print) (value_check_printable, val_print_array_elements): Use metadata style. * ui-out.h (class ui_out) <field_fmt>: New overload. <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * ui-out.c (ui_out::field_fmt): New overload. * typeprint.c (type_print_unknown_return_type) (val_print_not_allocated, val_print_not_associated): Use metadata style. * tui/tui-out.h (class tui_ui_out) <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * tui/tui-out.c (tui_ui_out::do_field_fmt): Update. * tracepoint.c (tvariables_info_1): Use metadata style. * stack.c (print_frame_arg, print_frame_info, print_frame) (info_frame_command_core): Use metadata style. * skip.c (info_skip_command): Use metadata style. * rust-lang.c (rust_print_enum): Use metadata style. * python/py-prettyprint.c (print_stack_unless_memory_error): Use metadata style. * python/py-framefilter.c (py_print_single_arg): Use metadata style. * printcmd.c (do_one_display, print_variable_and_value): Use metadata style. * p-valprint.c (pascal_val_print) (pascal_object_print_value_fields): Use metadata style. * p-typeprint.c (pascal_type_print_base): Use metadata style. * mi/mi-out.h (class mi_ui_out) <do_field_fmt>: Add style parameter. * mi/mi-out.c (mi_ui_out::do_field_fmt): Update. * m2-valprint.c (m2_print_long_set): Use metadata style. * m2-typeprint.c (m2_print_type): Use metadata style. * infcmd.c (print_return_value_1): Use metadata style. * gnu-v3-abi.c (print_one_vtable): Use metadata style. * f-valprint.c (info_common_command_for_block): Use metadata style. * f-typeprint.c (f_type_print_base): Use metadata style. * expprint.c (print_subexp_standard): Use metadata style. * cp-valprint.c (cp_print_value_fields): Use metadata style. * cli/cli-style.h (class cli_style_option): Add constructor.

2019-10-01Introduce gdb-specific %p format suffixesPedro Alves15-107/+646
This introduces a few gdb-specific %p format suffixes. This is useful for emitting gdb-specific output in an ergonomic way. It also yields code that is more i18n-friendly. The comment before ui_out::message explains the details. Note that the tests had to change a little. When using one of the gdb printf functions with styling, there can be spurious style changes emitted to the output. This did not seem worthwhile to fix, as the low-level output functions are rather spaghetti-ish already, and I didn't want to make them even worse. This change also necessitated adding support for "*" as precision and width in format_pieces. These are used in various spots in gdb, and it seemed better to me to implement them than to remove the uses. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * unittests/format_pieces-selftests.c: Add gdb_format parameter.

2019-10-01gdb/testsuite: Fix pretty-print.exp on big-endian platformsAndreas Arnez3-7/+18
The pretty-print test case fails on s390/s390x because it relies on a little-endian representation of bit fields. Little-endian architectures typically allocate bit fields from least to most significant bit, but big-endian architectures typically use the reverse order, allocating the most significant bit first. Thus the two bit fields in each of the test case's unions overlap either in their lower or in their higher bits, depending on the target's endianness: union { int three : 3; int four : 4; }; Now, when initializing 'three' with 3, 'four' will become 3 on little endian targets, but 6 on big-endian targets, making it FAIL there. Fix this by initializing the longer bit field instead and using an all-ones bit pattern. In this way the result does not depend on endianness. Use 'unsigned' instead of int for one of the bit fields in each of the unions, to increase the variety of resulting values. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/pretty-print.c (struct s1_t): Change fields 'three' and 'six' to unsigned. (s1): Initialize fields 'four' and 'six' instead of 'three' and 'five'. Use an all-ones bit pattern for each. * gdb.base/pretty-print.exp: Adjust expected output of "print s1" to its changed values.
2019-10-01Fix leak due to assigning a xstrdup-ed string to the std::string gdb_datadirPhilippe Waroquiers2-5/+10
Valgrind reports the following leak: ==32623== 56 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 1,099 of 6,654 ==32623== at 0x4835753: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:307) ==32623== by 0x25CF67: xmalloc (alloc.c:60) ==32623== by 0x65FBD9: xstrdup (xstrdup.c:34) ==32623== by 0x413D9E: captured_main_1(captured_main_args*) (main.c:553) ==32623== by 0x414FFA: captured_main (main.c:1172) ==32623== by 0x414FFA: gdb_main(captured_main_args*) (main.c:1197) ==32623== by 0x22531A: main (gdb.c:32) Commit f2aec7f6d14 changed gdb_datadir to std::string. So, xstrdup-ing the result of relocate_gdb_directory (returning a std::string) is not needed and creates a leak. Fix the leak by removing the xstrdup and the not needed c_str (). Also removes a useless conversion of gdb_datadir to std::string. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-01 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * main.c (relocate_gdbinit_path_maybe_in_datadir): Remove std::string conversion of gdb_datadir.

2019-09-30Use std::sort instead of qsort in minsyms.cChristian Biesinger2-22/+24
This has better typesafety and is also marginally faster (either due to inlining or because it avoids indirection through a function pointer). Note that in this change: - return 1; /* fn1 has no name, so it is "less". */ + return true; /* fn1 has no name, so it is "less". */ else if (name1) /* fn2 has no name, so it is "less". */ - return -1; + return false; I am fairly sure the old code was wrong (ie. code didn't match the comment and the comment seemed correct), so I fixed it. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-09-28 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> * minsyms.c (compare_minimal_symbols): Rename to... (minimal_symbol_is_less_than): ...this, and adjust to STL conventions (return bool, take arguments as references) (minimal_symbol_reader::install): Call std::sort instead of qsort.
2019-09-30Disable all warnings in gdb.rust/traits.rsTom Tromey2-3/+5
With rustc 1.37, I started seeing compiler warnings from the traits.rs test case: warning: trait objects without an explicit `dyn` are deprecated It seems to me that we generally do not want warnings in these test cases. At some point, we'll probably have to patch traits.rs to use the "dyn" keyword; by that time I expect that all the Rust compilers in common use will support it. In the meantime it seemed simplest to simply disable all warnings in this file. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2019-09-30 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * gdb.rust/traits.rs: Disable all warnings.

2019-09-26Revert "Improve ptrace-error detection on Linux targets"Sergio Durigan Junior16-487/+31
This reverts commit 381beca6146ac68b57edf47d28cdb335fbd11635. The patch hasn't been fully reviewed yet, and Pedro would like to see more fixes.
2019-09-26Improve ptrace-error detection on Linux targetsSergio Durigan Junior16-31/+487
In Fedora GDB, we carry the following patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdb/blob/8ac06474ff1e2aa4920d14e0666b083eeaca8952/f/gdb-attach-fail-reasons-5of5.patch Its purpose is to try to detect a specific scenario where SELinux's 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled, which prevents GDB from ptrace'ing in order to debug the inferior (PTRACE_ATTACH and PTRACE_TRACEME will fail with EACCES in this case). I like the idea of improving error detection and providing more information to the user (a simple "Permission denied" can be really frustrating), but I don't fully agree with the way the patch was implemented: it makes GDB link against libselinux only for the sake of consulting the 'deny_ptrace' setting, and then prints a warning if ptrace failed and this setting is on. My first thought (and attempt) was to make GDB print a generic warning when a ptrace error happened; this message would just point the user to our documentation, where she could find more information about possible causes for the error (and try to diagnose/fix the problem). This proved to be too simple, and I was convinced that it is actually a good idea to go the extra kilometre and try to pinpoint the specific problem (or problems) preventing ptrace from working, as well as provide useful suggestions on how the user can fix things. Here is the patch I came up with. It implements a new function, 'linux_ptrace_restricted_fail_reason', which does a few things to check what's wrong with ptrace: - It dlopen's "libselinux.so.1" and checks if the "deny_ptrace" option is enabled. - It reads the contents of "/proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope" and checks if it's different than 0. For each of these checks, if it succeeds, the user will see a message informing about the restriction in place, and how it can be disabled. For example, if "deny_ptrace" is enabled, the user will see: # gdb /usr/bin/true ... Starting program: /usr/bin/true warning: Could not trace the inferior process. warning: ptrace: Permission denied The SELinux 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled and preventing GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): setsebool deny_ptrace off If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). During startup program exited with code 127. (gdb) In case "/proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope" is > 0: # gdb /usr/bin/true ... Starting program: /usr/bin/true warning: Could not trace the inferior process. warning: ptrace: Operation not permitted The Linux kernel's Yama ptrace scope is in effect, which can prevent GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). During startup program exited with code 127. (gdb) If both restrictions are enabled, both messages will show up. This works for gdbserver as well, and actually fixes a latent bug I found: when ptrace is restricted, gdbserver would hang due to an unchecked ptrace call: # gdbserver :9988 /usr/bin/true gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: Cannot PTRACE_TRACEME: Operation not permitted gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: status 256 is not WIFSTOPPED! gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: failed to kill child pid 2668100 No such process [ Here you would have to issue a C-c ] Now, you will see: # gdbserver :9988 /usr/bin/true gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: Cannot PTRACE_TRACEME: Permission denied gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: status 256 is not WIFSTOPPED! gdbserver: linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx: failed to kill child pid 2766868 No such process gdbserver: Could not trace the inferior process. gdbserver: ptrace: Permission denied The SELinux 'deny_ptrace' option is enabled and preventing GDB from using 'ptrace'. You can disable it by executing (as root): setsebool deny_ptrace off If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). # (I decided to keep all the other messages, even though I find them a bit distracting). If GDB can't determine the cause for the failure, it will still print the generic error message which tells the user to check our documentation: There might be restrictions preventing ptrace from working. Please see the appendix "Linux kernel ptrace restrictions" in the GDB documentation for more details. If you are debugging the inferior remotely, the ptrace restriction(s) need to be disabled in the target system (e.g., where GDBserver is running). This means that the patch expands our documentation and creates a new appendix section named "Linux kernel ptrace restrictions", with sub-sections for each possible restriction that might be in place. Notice how, on every message, we instruct the user to "do the right thing" if gdbserver is being used. This is because if the user started gdbserver *before* any ptrace restriction was in place, and then, for some reason, one or more restrictions get enabled, then the error message will be displayed both on gdbserver *and* on the connected GDB. Since the user will be piloting GDB, it's important to explicitly say that the ptrace restrictions are enabled in the target, where gdbserver is running. The current list of possible restrictions is: - SELinux's 'deny_ptrace' option (detected). - YAMA's /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope setting (detected). - seccomp on Docker containers (I couldn't find how to detect). It's important to mention that all of this is Linux-specific; as far as I know, SELinux, YAMA and seccomp are Linux-only features. I tested this patch locally, on my Fedora 30 machine (actually, a Fedora Rawhide VM), but I'm not proposing a testcase for it because of the difficulty of writing one.

I was looking at the implementation of this script keyword today and couldn't remember why we do what we do in get_init_priority, because the comments explain how the init_priority is encoded but don't say why it is necessary to extract the priority and sort on that. So after figuring out why (again), I wrote some more comments. Then I simplified get_init_priority a little, adding some sanity checking on the strtoul result. This actually makes get_init_priority support sorting by numerical suffix more generally, but I figure this feature would be better as a new keyword (without the .ctors/.dtors special case), so haven't documented the extension. * ld.texi (SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT): Reword slightly.

2019-09-24[gdb/tdep] Handle mxcsr kernel bug on Intel Skylake CPUsTom de Vries4-2/+34
On my openSUSE Leap 15.1 x86_64 Skylake system with the default (4.12) kernel, I run into: ... FAIL: gdb.base/gcore.exp: corefile restored all registers ... The problem is that there's a difference in the mxcsr register value before and after the gcore command: ... - mxcsr 0x0 [ ] + mxcsr 0x400440 [ DAZ OM ] ... This can be traced back to amd64_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers, where xstateregs is partially initialized by the ptrace call: ... char xstateregs[X86_XSTATE_MAX_SIZE]; struct iovec iov; amd64_collect_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs, 0); iov.iov_base = xstateregs; iov.iov_len = sizeof (xstateregs); if (ptrace (PTRACE_GETREGSET, tid, (unsigned int) NT_X86_XSTATE, (long) &iov) < 0) perror_with_name (_("Couldn't get extended state status")); amd64_supply_xsave (regcache, -1, xstateregs); ... after which amd64_supply_xsave is called. The amd64_supply_xsave call is supposed to only use initialized parts of xstateregs, but due to a kernel bug on intel skylake (fixed from 4.14 onwards by commit 0852b374173b "x86/fpu: Add FPU state copying quirk to handle XRSTOR failure on Intel Skylake CPUs") it can happen that the mxcsr part of xstateregs is not initialized, while amd64_supply_xsave expects it to be initialized, which explains the FAIL mentioned above. Fix the undetermined behaviour by initializing xstateregs before calling ptrace, which makes sure we get a 0x0 for mxcsr when this kernel bug occurs, and which also happens to fix the FAIL. Furthermore, add an xfail for this FAIL which triggers the same kernel bug: ... FAIL: gdb.arch/amd64-init-x87-values.exp: check_setting_mxcsr_before_enable: \ check new value of MXCSR is still in place ... Both FAILs pass when using a 5.3 kernel instead on the system mentioned above.

2019-09-24Arm: Fix out of range conditional branch (PR/24991)Tamar Christina5-7/+38
The fix for PR12848 introduced an off by one error in the mask, this corrected the negative overflows but not the positive overflows. As a result the conditional branch instructions accepted a too wide positive immediate which resulted in it corrupting the instruction during encoding. The relocation I believe has been incorrectly named, to be consistent with the other relocations it should have been named BRANCH21 which is why the masks for it are confusing. I've replaced the masks with a function out_of_range_p which should make it harder to make such mistakes. The mask for BL/BLX on Armv6t+ is also wrong, the extended range is 25-bits and so the mask should be checking for 24-bits for positive overflow. gas/ChangeLog: PR gas/24991 * config/tc-arm.c (out_of_range_p): New.

The very first time this function is ever called its MINSIZE parameter is always 0 and the global LINE_SIZE is 1024. Prior to the above mentioned commits we spot that the line_state variables have not yet been initialised, and allocate them some new buffer, then we enter this loop: for (n = minsize; n < line_size; n++) { visible_line[n] = 0; invisible_line[n] = 1; } which would initialise everything from the incoming minimum up to the potentially extended upper line size. The problem is that the above patches added a new condition that would bump up the minsize like this: if (minsize <= _rl_screenwidth) /* XXX - for gdb */ minsize = _rl_screenwidth + 1; So, the first time this function is called the incoming MINSIZE is 0, the LINE_SIZE global is 1024, and if the _rl_screenwidth is 80, we see that MINSIZE will be pushed up to 80. We still notice that the line state is uninitialised and allocate some buffers, then we enter the initialisation loop: for (n = minsize; n < line_size; n++) { visible_line[n] = 0; invisible_line[n] = 1; } And initialise from 80 to 1023 i the newly allocated buffers, leaving 0 to 79 uninitialised. To confirm this is an issue, if we then look at rl_redisplay we see that a call to init_line_structures is followed first by a call to rl_on_new_line, which does initialise visible_line[0], but not invisible_line[0]. Later in rl_redisplay we have this logic: if (visible_line[0] != invisible_line[0]) rl_display_fixed = 0; The use of invisible_line[0] here will be undefined. Considering how this variable was originally initialised before the above patches, this patch modifies the initialisation loop in init_line_structures, to use the original value of MINSIZE. With this change the valgrind warning goes away. readline/ChangeLog: PR cli/24980 * display.c (init_line_structures): Initialise line_state using original minsize value.
