Pedro pointed out that ptype_tagged_param.exp used a kfail, but an
xfail would be more appropriate as the problem appears to be in gcc,
not gdb.

The workaround for the vCont packet is no longer required due to the
former commit "gdb: Make global feature array a per-remote target array".
The vCont packet is now checked once when the connection is started and
the supported vCont actions are set to the target's remote state
attribute.

This patch adds per-remote target variables for the configuration of
memory read- and write packet size. It is a further change to commit
"gdb: Make global feature array a per-remote target array" to apply the
fixme notes described in commit 5b6d1e4 "Multi-target support".
The former global variables for that configuration are still available
to allow the command line configuration for all future remote
connections. Similar to the command line configuration of the per-
remote target feature array, the commands
- set remotewritesize (deprecated)
- set remote memory-read-packet-size
- set remote memory-write-packet-size
will configure the current target (if available). If no target is
available, the default configuration for future remote connections is
adapted. The show command will display the current remote target's
packet size configuration. If no remote target is selected, the default
configuration for future connections will be shown.
It is required to adapt the test gdb.base/remote.exp which is failing
for --target_board=native-extended-gdbserver. With that board GDB
connects to gdbserver at gdb start time. Due to this patch two loggings
"The target may not be able to.." are shown if the command 'set remote
memory-write-packet-size fixed' is executed while a target is connected
for the current inferior. To fix this, the clean_restart command is
moved to a later time point of the test. It is sufficient to be
connected to the server when "runto_main" is executed. Now the
connection time is similar to a testrun with
--target_board=native-gdbserver.
To allow the user to distinguish between the packet-size configuration
for future remote connections and for the currently selected target, the
commands' loggings are adapted.

This patch applies the appropriate FIXME notes described in commit 5b6d1e4
"Multi-target support".
"You'll notice that remote.c includes some FIXME notes. These refer to
the fact that the global arrays that hold data for the remote packets
supported are still globals. For example, if we connect to two
different servers/stubs, then each might support different remote
protocol features. They might even be different architectures, like
e.g., one ARM baremetal stub, and a x86 gdbserver, to debug a
host/controller scenario as a single program. That isn't going to
work correctly today, because of said globals. I'm leaving fixing
that for another pass, since it does not appear to be trivial, and I'd
rather land the base work first. It's already useful to be able to
debug multiple instances of the same server (e.g., a distributed
cluster, where you have full control over the servers installed), so I
think as is it's already reasonable incremental progress."
Using this patch it is possible to configure per-remote targets'
feature packets.
Given the following setup for two gdbservers:
~~~~
gdbserver --multi :1234
gdbserver --disable-packet=vCont --multi :2345
~~~~
Before this patch configuring of range-stepping was not possible for one
of two connected remote targets with different support for the vCont
packet. As one of the targets supports vCont, it should be possible to
configure "set range-stepping". However, the output of GDB looks like:
(gdb) target extended-remote :1234
Remote debugging using :1234
(gdb) add-inferior -no-connection
[New inferior 2]
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) target extended-remote :2345
Remote debugging using :2345
(gdb) set range-stepping on
warning: Range stepping is not supported by the current target
(gdb) inferior 1
[Switching to inferior 1 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) set range-stepping on
warning: Range stepping is not supported by the current target
~~~~
Two warnings are shown. The warning for inferior 1 should not appear
as it is connected to a target supporting the vCont package.
~~~~
(gdb) target extended-remote :1234
Remote debugging using :1234
(gdb) add-inferior -no-connection
[New inferior 2]
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) target extended-remote :2345
Remote debugging using :2345
(gdb) set range-stepping on
warning: Range stepping is not supported by the current target
(gdb) inferior 1
[Switching to inferior 1 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) set range-stepping on
(gdb)
~~~~
Now only one warning is shown for inferior 2, which is connected to
a target not supporting vCont.
The per-remote target feature array is realized by a new class
remote_features, which stores the per-remote target array and
provides functions to determine supported features of the target.
A remote_target object now has a new member of that class.
Each time a new remote_target object is initialized, a new per-remote
target array is constructed based on the global remote_protocol_packets
array. The global array is initialized in the function _initialize_remote
and can be configured using the command line. Before this patch the
command line configuration affected current targets and future remote
targets (due to the global feature array used by all remote
targets). This behavior is different and the configuration applies as
follows:
- If a target is connected, the command line configuration affects the
current connection. All other existing remote targets are not
affected.
- If not connected, the command line configuration affects future
connections.
The show command displays the current remote target's configuration. If no
remote target is selected the default configuration for future
connections is shown.
If we have for instance the following setup with inferior 2 being
selected:
~~~~
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Connection Executable
1 <null> 1 (extended-remote :1234)
* 2 <null> 2 (extended-remote :2345)
~~~~
Before this patch, if we run 'set remote multiprocess-feature-packet', the
following configuration was set:
The feature array of all remote targets (in this setup the two connected
targets) and all future remote connections are affected.
After this patch, it will be configured as follows:
The feature array of target with port :2345 which is currently selected
will be configured. All other existing remote targets are not affected.
The show command 'show remote multiprocess-feature-packet' will display
the configuration of target with port :2345.
Due to this configuration change, it is required to adapt the test
"gdb/testsuite/gdb.multi/multi-target-info-inferiors.exp" to configure the
multiprocess-feature-packet before the connections are created.
To inform the gdb user about the new behaviour of the 'show remote
PACKET-NAME' commands and the new configuration impact for remote
targets using the 'set remote PACKET-NAME' commands the commands'
outputs are adapted. Due to this change it is required to adapt each
test using the set/show remote 'PACKET-NAME' commands.

I noticed that iterating over the index yields non-const
cooked_index_entry objects. However, after finalization, they should
not be modified. This patch enforces this by adding const where
needed.
v2 makes the find, all_entries, and wait methods const as well.

Recent commit 1d98e564c97 ("[gdb/testsuite] Add
gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn-{amd64,i386}.exp") broke commit eb015bf86b6
("[gdb/testsuite] Avoid using .eh_frame in gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp"),
in the sense that gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp no longer uses
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables, due to trying to concatenate two lists using:
...
lappend srcfile2_flags $nodebug_flags
...
which should instead be:
...
lappend srcfile2_flags {*}$nodebug_flags
...
Fix this by simplifying gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp.tcl, completely
leaving the responsibility to set srcfile_flags and srcfile2_flags to each
includer.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

Simon pointed out that the kfail check in
gdb.ada/ptype_tagged_param.exp is inverted. See:

Unless tui debug is turned on, then there should be no user visible

While working on the previous couple of patches I noticed that when I
scroll the src and asm windows vertically, I get two refresh_window
calls.
The two calls can be traced back to
tui_source_window_base::update_source_window_as_is, in here we call
show_source_content, which calls refresh_window, and then
update_exec_info, which also calls refresh_window.
In this commit I propose making the refresh_window call in
update_exec_info optional. In update_source_window_as_is I'll then
call update_exec_info before calling show_source_content, and pass a
flag to update_exec_info to defer the refresh.
There are places where update_exec_info is used without any subsequent
refresh_window call (e.g. when a breakpoint is updated), so
update_exec_info does not to call refresh_window in some cases, which
is why I'm using a flag to control the refresh.
With this changes I'm now only seeing a single refresh_window call for
each vertical scroll.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

While working on the previous patches I noticed that in some cases I
was seeing two calls to tui_source_window_base::refresh_window when
scrolling the window horizontally.
The two calls would trigger in for the tui-disasm-long-lines.exp test
when the pad needed to be refilled. The two called both come from
tui_source_window_base::show_source_content. The first call is nested
within check_and_display_highlight_if_needed, while the second call is
done directly at the end of show_source_content.
The check_and_display_highlight_if_needed is being used to draw the
window box to the window, this is needed here because
show_source_content is what gets called when the window needs
updating, e.g. after a resize. We could potentially do the boxing in
refresh_window, but then we'd be doing it each time we scroll, even
though the box doesn't need changing in this case.
However, we can move the check_and_display_highlight_if_needed to be
the last thing done in show_source_content, this means that we can
rely on the refresh_window call within it to be our single refresh
call.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

This commit addresses an issue that is exposed by the test script
gdb.tui/tui-disasm-long-lines.exp, that is, tui_source_window_base
does not handle very long lines.
The problem can be traced back to the newpad call in
tui_source_window_base::show_source_content, this is where we allocate
a backing pad to hold the window content.
Unfortunately, there appears to be a limit to the size of pad that can
be allocated, and the gdb.tui/tui-disasm-long-lines.exp test goes
beyond this limit. As a consequence the newpad call fails and returns
nullptr.
It just so happens that the reset of the tui_source_window_base code
can handle the pad being nullptr (this happens anyway when the window
is first created, so we already depend on nullptr handling), so all
that happens is the source window displays no content.
... well, sort of ... something weird does happen in the command
window, we seem to see a whole bunch of blank lines. I've not
bothered to track down exactly what's happening there, but it's some
consequence of GDB attempting to write content to a WINDOW* that is
nullptr.
Before explaining my solution, I'll outline how things currently work:
Consider we have the following window content to display:
aaaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
ccccccccccccccc
the longest line here is 20 characters. If our display window is 10
characters wide, then we will create a pad that is 20 characters wide,
and then copy the lines of content into the pad:
.--------------------.
|aaaaaaaaaa |
|bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|
|ccccccccccccccc |
.--------------------.
Now we will copy a 10 character wide view into this pad to the
display, our display will then see:
.----------.
|aaaaaaaaaa|
|bbbbbbbbbb|
|cccccccccc|
.----------.
As the user scrolls left and right we adjust m_horizontal_offset and
use this to select which part of the pad is copied onto the display.
The benefit of this is that we only need to copy the content to the
pad once, which includes processing the ansi escape sequences, and
then the user can scroll left and right as much as they want
relatively cheaply.
The problem then, is that if the longest content line is very long,
then we try to allocate a very large pad, which can fail.
What I propose is that we allow both the pad and the display view to
scroll. Once we allow this, then it becomes possible to allocate a
pad that is smaller than the longest display line. We then copy part
of the content into the pad. As the user scrolls the view left and
right GDB will continue to copy content from the pad just as it does
right now. But, when the user scrolls to the edge of the pad, GDB
will copy a new block of content into the pad, and then update the
view as normal. This all works fine so long as the maximum pad size
is larger than the current window size - which seems a reasonable
restriction, if ncurses can't support a pad of a given size it seems
likely it will not support a display window of that size either.
If we return to our example above, but this time we assume that the
maximum pad size is 15 characters, then initially the pad would be
loaded like this:
.---------------.
|aaaaaaaaaa |
|bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|
|ccccccccccccccc|
.---------------.
Notice that the last 5 characters from the 'b' line are no longer
included in the pad. There is still enough content though to fill the
10 character wide display, just as we did before.
The pad contents remain unchanged until the user scrolls the display
right to this point:
.----------.
|aaaaa |
|bbbbbbbbbb|
|cccccccccc|
.----------.
Now, when the user scrolls right once more GDB spots that the user has
reached the end of the pad, and the pad contents are reloaded, like
this:
.---------------.
|aaaaa |
|bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|
|cccccccccc |
.---------------.
The display can now be updated from the pad again just like normal.
With this change in place the gdb.tui/tui-disasm-long-lines.exp test
now correctly loads the assembler code, and we can scroll around as
expected.
Most of the changes are pretty mundane, just updating to match the
above. One interesting change though is the new member function
tui_source_window_base::puts_to_pad_with_skip. This replaces direct
calls to tui_puts when copying content to the pad.
The content strings contain ansi escape sequences. When these strings
are written to the pad these escape sequences are translated into
ncurses attribute setting calls.
Now however, we sometimes only write a partial string to the pad,
skipping some of the leading content. Imagine then that we have a
content line like this:
"\033[31mABCDEFGHIJKLM\033[0m"
Now the escape sequences in this content mean that the actual
content (the 'ABCDEFGHIJKLM') will have a red foreground color.
If we want to copy this to the pad, but skip the first 3 characters,
then what we expect is to have the pad contain 'DEFGHIJKLM', but this
text should still have a red foreground color.
It is this problem that puts_to_pad_with_skip solves. This function
skips some number of printable characters, but processes all the
escape sequences. This means that when we do start printing the
actual content the content will have the expected attributes.

I noticed that tui_source_window_base::m_horizontal_offset was
protected, but could be made private, so lets do that.
This makes more sense in the context of a later commit where I plan to
add another member variable that is similar to m_horizontal_offset.
The new member variable could also be private.
So I had to choose, place the new member variable next to
m_horizontal_offset making it protected, but grouping similar
variables together, or make m_horizontal_offset private, and then add
the new variable as private too.
I chose to make m_horizontal_offset private, which is this commit.

When an assert triggers in tui mode the output is not great, the
internal backtrace that is generated is printed directly to the file
descriptor for gdb_stderr, and, as a result, does not currently format
itself correctly - the output uses only '\n' at the end of each line,
and so, when the terminal is in raw mode, the cursor does not return
to the start of each line after the '\n'.
This is mostly fixable, we could update bt-utils.c to use '\r\n'
instead of just '\n', and this would fix most of the problems. The
one we can't easily fix is if/when GDB is built to use execinfo
instead of libbacktrace, in this case we use backtrace_symbols_fd to
print the symbols, and this function only uses '\n' as the line
terminator. Fixing this would require switching to backtrace_symbols,
but that API uses malloc, which is something we're trying to
avoid (this code is called when GDB hits an error, so ideally we don't
want to rely on malloc).
However, the execinfo code is only used when libbacktrace is not
available (or the user specifically disables libbacktrace) so maybe we
can ignore that problem...
... but there is another problem. When the backtrace is printed in
raw mode, it is possible that the backtrace fills the screen. With
the terminal in raw mode we don't have the ability to scroll back,
which means we loose some of the backtrace, which isn't ideal.
In this commit I propose that we should disable tui mode whenever we
handle a fatal signal, or when we hit the internal error code
path (e.g. when an assert triggers). With this done then we don't
need to update the bt-utils.c code, and the execinfo version of the
code (using backtrace_symbols_fd) works just fine. We also get the
ability to scroll back to view the error message and all of the
backtrace, assuming the users terminal supports scrolling back.
The only downside I see with this change is if the tui_disable call
itself causes an error for some reason, or, if we handle a single at a
time when it is not safe to call tui_disable, in these cases the extra
tui_disable call might cause GDB to loose the original error.
However, I think (just from personal experience) that the above two
issues are pretty rare and the benefits from this change far out
weighs the possible drawbacks.

This commit improves (I think) the errors from the tui focus command.
There are a number of errors that can be triggered by the focus
command, they include:
(1) Window name "NAME" is ambiguous
(2) Unrecognized window name "NAME"
(3) Window "NAME" cannot be focused
Error (1) is triggered when the user gives a partial window name, and
the name matches multiple windows in the current layout.
It is worth noting that the ambiguity must be within the current
layout; if the partial name matches one window in the current layout,
and one or more windows not in the current layout, then this is not
ambiguous, and focus will shift to the matching window in the current
layout.
This error was not previous being tested, but in this commit I make
use of the Python API to trigger and test this error.
Error (3) is simple enough, and was already being tested. This is
triggered by something like 'focus status'. The named window needs to
be present in the current layout, and non-focusable in order to
trigger the error.
Error (2) is what I'd like to improve in this commit. This error
triggers if the name the user gives doesn't match any window in the
current layout. Even if GDB does know about the window, but the
window isn't in the current layout, then GDB will say it doesn't
recognize the window name.
In this commit I propose to to split this error into three different
errors. These will be:
(a) Unrecognized window name "NAME"
(b) No windows matching "NAME" in the current layout
(c) Window "NAME" is not in the current layout
Error (a) is the same as before, but will now only trigger if GDB
doesn't know about window NAME at all. If the window is known, but
not in the current layout then one of the other errors will trigger.
Error (b) will trigger if NAME is ambiguous for multiple windows that
are not in the current layout. If NAME identifies a single window in
the current layout then that window will continue to be selected, just
as it currently is. Only in the case where NAME doesn't identify a
window in the current layout do we then check all the other known
windows, if NAME matches multiple of these, then (b) is triggered.
Finally, error (c) is used when NAME uniquely identifies a single
window that is not in the current layout.
The hope with these new errors is that the user will have a better
understanding of what went wrong. Instead of GDB claiming to not know
about a window, the mention of the current layout will hint to the
user that they should first switch layouts.
There are tests included for all the new errors.

In a following commit I managed to trigger the line feed scrolling
case in tuiterm.exp. This case is currently unhandled, and this
commit fills in this missing functionality.
The implementation is pretty simple, just scroll all the content up
one line at a time until the cursor is back on the screen (a single
line of scroll is all that should be needed).
This change is untested in this commit, but is required by the next
commit.

Ideally we'd do away with this somewhat questionable adjustment (leaving
i.types[] untouched). That's non-trivial though as it looks, so only
- move the logic into process_operands(), putting it closer to related
logic and eliminating a conditional for operand-less insns,
- make it consistent (i.e. also affect %xmm0), eliminating an ugly
special case later in the function.
|
|
All (there are just two) SSE2AVX templates with %xmm0 as first operand
also specify VEX3SOURCES. Hence there's no need for an "else" to the
respective if(), and the if() itself can become an assertion.
|
|
This is the correct way of expressing things; encoding the ModR/M byte
directly in base_opcode has always been bogus.
|
|
Now that we have identifiers for the mnemonic strings we can avoid
opcode based comparisons, for (in many cases) being more expensive and
(in a few cases) being a little fragile and not self-documenting.
|
|
While one of the two actually having been instrumented (i386-gen.c) now
has that instrumentation dropped, there's still no point in honoring
such instrumentation in general (i.e. now for ia64-gen.c only), as that
only leads to a waste of resources.
With CFILES then being merely an alias of LIBOPCODES_CFILES, drop the
former variable altogether.

This is similar to "Call bfd_close_all_done in output_file_close",
but with some code tidying in the pe/pep write_build_id functions.
write_build_id is passed the output bfd as its parameter, so there is

will no longer work since I clear link_info.output_bfd before calling
bfd_close).

It seems reasonable to continue after errors in bfd_close_all_done,
particularly since bfd_close_all_done is typically called on an output

necessary if bfd_close_all_done is to work on odd bfd's opened by
bfd_create.
