2019-10-17Fix creation of stamp-h by gdb's configure scriptTom Tromey8-67/+27
I happened to notice that "make" would always print: CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h:config.in \ CONFIG_COMMANDS="default depdir" \ CONFIG_FILES= \ CONFIG_LINKS= \ /bin/sh config.status config.status: creating config.h config.status: config.h is unchanged on every rebuild. This seems to have changed due to an autoconf upgrade at some point in the past. In the autoconf gdb uses now, it works to use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS and then create the stamp file via the "commands" argument. This patch also fixes up Makefile.in to use the new-style config.status invocation. It's no longer necessary to pass the output file names via environment variables. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-10-17 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS. Create stamp-h there, not in AC_CONFIG_FILES invocation. * Makefile.in (Makefile, data-directory/Makefile, stamp-h): Use new-style config.status invocation. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog 2019-10-17 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS.

Recent work from Tom Tromey to better handle variables with associated copy relocations has fixed a Fortran issue where module variables wouldn't show up in the output of 'info variables'.

2019-10-16gdb/testsuite: Allow cc-with-tweaks board file to be used with FortranAndrew Burgess2-0/+15
The board file cc-with-tweaks is used as the core for lots of other board files, for example cc-with-gdb-index and cc-with-debug-names. This commit extends cc-with-tweaks so that it will wrap the Fortran compiler, allowing for more test coverage. I tested all of the board files that make use of cc-with-tweaks running the gdb.fortran/*.exp test set, and in some cases I did see extra failures. The "standard" results are: === gdb Summary === # of expected passes 953 # of known failures 2 With board file 'cc-with-dwz-m': === gdb Summary === # of expected passes 903 # of unexpected failures 1 # of known failures 2 # of untested testcases 4 With board file 'dwarf4-gdb-index': === gdb Summary === # of expected passes 950 # of unexpected failures 3 # of known failures 2 With board file 'fission-dwp': === gdb Summary === # of expected passes 949 # of unexpected failures 4 # of known failures 2 Despite these extra failure I don't think this should prevent this change going in as these failures presumably already exist in GDB. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * boards/cc-with-tweaks.exp: Setup F90_FOR_TARGET and F77_FOR_TARGET.

2019-10-16Allow not saving the signal state in SIGSETJMPChristian Biesinger3-3/+28
Saving the signal state is very slow (this patch is a 14% speedup). The reason we need this code is because signal handler will leave the signal blocked when we longjmp out of it. But in this case we can just manually unblock the signal instead of taking the unconditional perf hit. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-10-16 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> * gdbsupport/gdb_setjmp.h (SIGSETJMP): Allow passing in the value to pass on to sigsetjmp's second argument. * cp-support.c (gdb_demangle): Unblock SIGSEGV if we caught a crash.

2019-10-16DWARF reader: Reject sections with invalid sizesKeith Seitz2-0/+15
This is another fuzzer bug, gdb/23567. This time, the fuzzer has specifically altered the size of .debug_str: $ eu-readelf -S objdump Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flags Lk Inf Al [31] .debug_str PROGBITS 0000000000000000 0057116d ffffffffffffffff 1 MS 0 0 1 When this file is loaded into GDB, the DWARF reader crashes attempting to access the string table (or it may just store a bunch of nonsense): [gdb-8.3-6-fc30] $ gdb -nx -q objdump BFD: warning: /path/to/objdump has a corrupt section with a size (ffffffffffffffff) larger than the file size Reading symbols from /path/to/objdump...

This is an attempt to mitigate this by implementing a similar approach used by BFD.

2019-10-16Add initial compile command support to RISC-V port.Jim Wilson2-0/+63
This adds initial compile command support to the RISC-V port. This fixes about 228 testsuite failures on a riscv64-linux machine. We need to get the triplet right which is normally riscv64 or riscv32 instead of the default riscv. Also, we need to get the compiler options right, since we don't accept the default -m64 and -mcmodel=large options, so we need to construct -march and -mabi options which are correct for the target. We currently don't have info about all extensions used by the target, so this may need to be adjusted later. For now, I'm assuming that we have all extensions required by the linux platform spec. gdb/ * riscv-tdep.c (riscv_gcc_target_options): New. (riscv_gnu_triplet_regexp): New.

2019-10-16Create xml-builtin.h to declare xml_builtinsChristian Biesinger8-7/+50
xml-builtin.c only has character arrays and no dependencies, so this creates a simple header file for that purpose so that gdbserver can include that instead of re-declaring xml_builtin. Despite the name, feature_to_c.sh is already specific to xml_builtins (it hardcodes the variable name), so making it always output the include for xml-builtin.h seems fine. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-10-16 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> * Makefile.in: Add xml-builtin.h. * features/feature_to_c.sh: Add an include for xml-builtin.h to ensure that the compiler checks that the types match. * xml-builtin.h: New file. * xml-support.c (fetch_xml_builtin): Add missing const. * xml-support.h: Remove declaration of xml_builtins. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: 2019-10-16 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> * server.c: Include xml-builtin.h.

2019-10-16[gdb/tdep] Fix inferior call arg passing for amd64Tom de Vries4-55/+80
We currently have 12 KFAILS in gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp for PR tdep/25096. A minimal version of the failure looks like this. Consider test.c: ... struct s { int c; struct { int a; float b; } s1; }; struct s ref = { 0, { 'a', 'b' } }; int __attribute__((noinline,noclone)) check (struct s arg) { return arg.s1.a == 'a' && arg.s1.b == 'b' && arg.c == 0; } int main (void) { return check (ref); } ... When calling 'check (ref)' from main, we have '1' as expected: ... $ g++ test.c -g ; ./a.out ; echo $? 1 ... But when calling 'check (ref)' from the gdb prompt, we get '0': ... $ gdb a.out -batch -ex start -ex "p check (ref)" Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x400518: file test.c, line 8. Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:8 8 { return check (ref); } $1 = 0 ... The layout of struct s is this: - the field c occupies 4 bytes at offset 0, - the s1.a field occupies 4 bytes at offset 4, and - the s1.b field occupies 4 bytes at offset 8. When compiling at -O2, we can see from the disassembly of main: ... 4003f0: 48 8b 3d 31 0c 20 00 mov 0x200c31(%rip),%rdi \ # 601028 <ref> 4003f7: f3 0f 10 05 31 0c 20 movss 0x200c31(%rip),%xmm0 \ # 601030 <ref+0x8> 4003fe: 00 4003ff: e9 ec 00 00 00 jmpq 4004f0 <_Z5check1s> ... that check is called with fields c and s1.a passed in %rdi, and s1.b passed in %xmm0. However, the classification in theclass (a variable representing the first and second eightbytes, to put it in SYSV X86_64 psABI terms) in amd64_push_arguments is incorrect: ... (gdb) p theclass $1 = {AMD64_INTEGER, AMD64_INTEGER} ... and therefore the struct is passed using %rdi and %rsi instead of using %rdi and %xmm0, which explains the failure. The reason that we're misclassifying the argument in amd64_classify_aggregate has to do with how nested struct are handled. Rather than using fields c and s1.a for the first eightbyte, and using field s1.b for the second eightbyte, instead field c is used for the first eightbyte, and fields s1.a and s1.b are classified together in an intermediate eightbyte, which is then used to merge with both the first and second eightbyte. Fix this by factoring out a new function amd64_classify_aggregate_field, and letting it recursively handle fields of nested structs. Tested on x86_64-linux. Tested with g++ 4.8.5, 7.4.1, 8.3.1, 9.2.1.

2019-10-16PR13616, linker should pad executable sections with nops, not zerosAlan Modra10-69/+116
This implements padding of orphan executable sections for PowerPC. Of course, the simple implementation of bfd_arch_ppc_nop_fill and removing the NOP definition didn't work, with powerpc64 hitting a testsuite failure linking to S-records. That's because the srec target is BFD_ENDIAN_UNKNOWN so the test of bfd_big_endian (abfd) in default_data_link_order therefore returned false, resulting in a little-endian nop pattern. The rest of the patch fixes that problem by adding a new field to bfd_link_info that can be used to determine actual endianness on targets like srec. PR 13616 include/ * bfdlink.h (struct bfd_link_info <big_endian>): New field. bfd/ * cpu-powerpc.c (bfd_arch_ppc_nop_fill): New function, use it for all ppc arch info. * linker.c (default_data_link_order): Pass info->big_endian to arch_info->fill function. ld/ * emulparams/elf64lppc.sh (NOP): Don't define. * emulparams/elf64ppc.sh (NOP): Don't define. * ldwrite.c (build_link_order): Use link_info.big_endian.

2019-10-15gdb: Remove use of VEC from dwarf2read.cAndrew Burgess3-42/+84
This removes a use of VEC from GDB, from dwarf2read.c. This removal is not very clean, and would probably benefit from additional refactoring in the future. The problem here is that the VEC is contained within struct dwarf2_per_cu_data, which is treated as POD in dwarf2read.c. As such it is actually a VEC pointer. When converting this to a std::vector in an ideal world we would not use a std::vector pointer, and use the std::vector directly. Sadly, to do that would require some rewriting in dwarf2read.c - my concern would be introducing bugs during this rewrite. If we move to a std::vector pointer then we need to take care to handle the case where the pointer is null. The old VEC library would handle null for us, making the VEC interface very clean. With std::vector we need to handle the null pointer case ourselves. The achieve this then I've added a small number of function that wrap up access to the std::vector, hopefully hiding the null pointer management. The final ugliness with this conversion is that, ideally, when wrapping a data member behind an interface I would make the data member private, however, treating the structure as POD once again prevents this, so we are left with the data member being public, but access (ideally) being through the published interface functions. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdb/dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_per_objfile::~dwarf2_per_objfile): Update for new std::vector based implementation.

The infcall-nested-structs test case yields 36 FAILs on s390x because GCC and GDB disagree on how to pass a C++ struct like this as an argument to a function: struct s { float x; static float y; }; For the purpose of argument passing, GCC ignores static fields, while GDB does not.

However it is conceivable that an unstable sort could affect linker output, and thus different output be seen with differing qsort implementations. The argument goes like this: Given more than one strong alias symbol of equal section, value, and size, the aliases will compare equal by elf_sort_symbol and thus which one is chosen as the "real" symbol to be made dynamic depends on qsort. Why would anyone define two symbols at the same address? Well, sometimes the fact that there are more than one strong alias symbol is due to linker script symbols like __bss_start being made dynamic. This will match the first symbol defined in .bss if it doesn't have correct size, and forgetting to properly set size and type of symbols isn't as rare as it should be. This patch adds some more heuristics to elf_sort_symbol. * elflink.c (elf_sort_symbol): Sort on type and name as well. (elf_link_add_object_symbols): Style fix.
2019-10-14qsort: elf_sort_sections use of target_indexAlan Modra3-10/+23
elf_sort_sections tried to ensure a stable qsort by using target_index as the final comparison, but target_index hasn't been set by anything at the time elf_sort_sections was run. This patch arrange to have target_index set. * elf.c (_bfd_elf_map_sections_to_segments): Init target_index for sections about to be sorted. (assign_file_positions_for_load_sections): Likewise. (elf_sort_sections): Don't bother optimising both TOEND case. * elflink.c (bfd_elf_final_link): Reset target_index.
2019-10-14qsort: SHF_LINK_ORDER section sortAlan Modra2-61/+51
The linker SHF_LINK_ORDER section sorting had a number of defects. 1) The ordering was by VMA, which won't work with overlays. LMA is better. 2) Zero size sections can result in two sections at the same LMA/VMA. When only one of the two sections at the same LMA is zero size, that one must be first. 3) Warnings given by elf_get_linked_section_vma won't ever be emitted since elf_object_p warns and excludes objects with zero sh_link on a SHF_LINK_ORDER section. 4) Section offset was adjusted down rather than up by section alignment, possibly creating overlapping sections. 5) Finding the linked section did so the hard way, rather than simply using elf_linked_to_section. * elflink.c (elf_get_linked_section_vma): Delete. (compare_link_order): Use elf_linked_to_section and sort by lma, size, and id. (elf_fixup_link_order): Use size_t variables where appropriate. Make use of elf_linked_to_section. Formatting. Properly align sections.
2019-10-14qsort issuesAlan Modra5-8/+60
qsort isn't guaranteed to be a stable sort, that is, elements comparing equal according to the comparison function may be reordered relative to their original ordering. Of course sometimes you may not care, but even in those cases it is good to force some ordering (ie. not have the comparison function return 0) so that linker output is reproducible over different libc qsort implementations. One way to make qsort stable (which the glibc manual incorrectly says is the only way) is to augment the elements being sorted with a monotonic counter of some kind, and use that counter as the final arbiter of ordering in the comparison function. Another way is to set up an array of pointers into the array of elements, first pointer to first element, second pointer to second element and so so, and sort the pointer array rather than the element array. Final arbiter in the comparison function then is the pointer difference. This works well with, for example, the symbol pointers returned by _bfd_elf_canonicalize_symtab which point into a symbol array. This patch fixes a few places where sorting by symbol pointers is appropriate, and adds comments where qsort stability is a non-issue. * elf-strtab.c (strrevcmp): Comment. * merge.c (strrevcmp): Likewise. * elf64-ppc.c (compare_symbols): Correct final pointer comparison. Comment on why comparing pointers ensures a stable sort. * elflink.c (struct elf_symbol): Add void* to union. (elf_sort_elf_symbol): Ensure a stable sort with pointer comparison. (elf_sym_name_compare): Likewise. (bfd_elf_match_symbols_in_sections): Style fix. (elf_link_sort_cmp1): Comment.
