2023-02-15Add new "$_shell(CMD)" internal functionPedro Alves5-5/+198
For testing a following patch, I wanted a way to send a SIGINT to GDB from a breakpoint condition. And I didn't want to do it from a Python breakpoint or Python function, as I wanted to exercise non-Python code paths. So I thought I'd add a new $_shell internal function, that runs a command under the shell, and returns the exit code. With this, I could write: (gdb) b foo if $_shell("kill -SIGINT $gdb_pid") != 0 || <other condition> I think this is generally useful, hence I'm proposing it here. Here's the new function in action: (gdb) p $_shell("true") $1 = 0 (gdb) p $_shell("false") $2 = 1 (gdb) p $_shell("echo hello") hello $3 = 0 (gdb) p $_shell("foobar") bash: line 1: foobar: command not found $4 = 127 (gdb) help function _shell $_shell - execute a shell command and returns the result. Usage: $_shell (command) Returns the command's exit code: zero on success, non-zero otherwise. (gdb) NEWS and manual changes included.

2023-02-15Make "ptype INTERNAL_FUNCTION" in Ada print like other languagesPedro Alves2-2/+7
Currently, printing the type of an internal function in Ada shows double <>s, like: (gdb) with language ada -- ptype $_isvoid type = <<internal function>> while all other languages print it with a single <>, like: (gdb) with language c -- ptype $_isvoid type = <internal function> I don't think there's a reason that Ada needs to be different. We currently print the double <>s because we take this path in ada_print_type: switch (type->code ()) { default: gdb_printf (stream, "<"); c_print_type (type, "", stream, show, level, language_ada, flags); gdb_printf (stream, ">"); break; ... and the type's name already has the <>s. Fix this by simply adding an early check for TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION.

2023-02-15Fix "ptype INTERNAL_FUNC" (PR gdb/30105)Pedro Alves4-97/+49
Currently, looking at the type of an internal function, like below, hits an odd error: (gdb) ptype $_isvoid type = <internal function>type not handled in c_type_print_varspec_prefix() That is an error thrown from c-typeprint.c:c_type_print_varspec_prefix, where it reads: ... case TYPE_CODE_DECFLOAT: case TYPE_CODE_FIXED_POINT: /* These types need no prefix. They are listed here so that gcc -Wall will reveal any types that haven't been handled. */ break; default: error (_("type not handled in c_type_print_varspec_prefix()")); break; Internal function types have type code TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION, which is not explicitly handled by that switch. That comment quoted above says that gcc -Wall will reveal any types that haven't been handled, but that's not actually true, at least with modern GCCs. You would need to enable -Wswitch-enum for that, which we don't. If I do enable that warning, then I see that we're missing handling for the following type codes: TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION, TYPE_CODE_MODULE, TYPE_CODE_NAMELIST, TYPE_CODE_XMETHOD TYPE_CODE_MODULE and TYPE_CODE_NAMELIST and Fortran-specific, so it'd be a little weird to handle them here. I tried to reach this code with TYPE_CODE_XMETHOD, but couldn't figure out how to. ptype on an xmethod isn't treated specially, it just complains that the method doesn't exist. I've extended the gdb.python/py-xmethods.exp testcase to make sure of that. My thinking is that whatever type code we add next, the most likely scenario is that it won't need any special handling, so we'd just be adding another case to that "do nothing" list. If we do need special casing for whatever type code, I think that tests added at the same time as the feature would uncover it anyhow. If we do miss adding the special casing, then it still looks better to me to print the type somewhat incompletely than to error out and make it harder for users to debug whatever they need. So I think that the best thing to do here is to just remove all those explicit "do nothing" cases, along with the error default case. After doing that, I decided to write a testcase that iterates over all supported languages doing "ptype INTERNAL_FUNC". That revealed that Pascal has a similar problem, except the default case hits a gdb_assert instead of an error: (gdb) with language pascal -- ptype $_isvoid type = ../../src/gdb/p-typeprint.c:268: internal-error: type_print_varspec_prefix: unexpected type A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. That is fixed by this patch in the same way. You'll notice that the new testcase special-cases the Ada expected output: } elseif {$lang == "ada"} { gdb_test "ptype \$_isvoid" "<<internal function>>" } else { gdb_test "ptype \$_isvoid" "<internal function>" } That will be subject of the following patch.

2023-02-15gdb: fix dealloc function not being called for frame 0Simon Marchi1-8/+21
Tom de Vries reported [1] a regression in gdb.btrace/record_goto.exp caused by 6d3717d4c4 ("gdb: call frame unwinders' dealloc_cache methods through destroying the frame cache"). This issue is caught by ASan. On a non-ASan build, it may or may not cause a crash or some other issue, I haven't tried. I managed to narrow it down to: $ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory testsuite/outputs/gdb.btrace/record_goto/record_goto -ex "start" -ex "record btrace" -ex "next" ... and then doing repeatedly "record goto 19" and "record goto 27".

This entry points to something that used to be allocated on the frame obstack, that has since been wiped by reinit_frame_cache. Before the aforementioned, unwinder deallocation functions were called by iterating on the frame chain, starting with the sentinel frame, like so: /* Tear down all frame caches. */ for (frame_info *fi = sentinel_frame; fi != NULL; fi = fi->prev) { if (fi->prologue_cache && fi->unwind->dealloc_cache) fi->unwind->dealloc_cache (fi, fi->prologue_cache); if (fi->base_cache && fi->base->unwind->dealloc_cache) fi->base->unwind->dealloc_cache (fi, fi->base_cache); } After that patch, we relied on the fact that all frames are (supposedly) in the frame_stash. A deletion function was added to the frame_stash hash table, so that dealloc functions would be called when emptying the frame stash. There is one case, however, where a frame_info is not in the frame stash. That is when we create the frame_info for the current frame (level 0, unwound from the sentinel frame), but don't compute its frame id. The computation of the frame id for that frame (and only that frame, AFAIK) is done lazily. And putting a frame_info in the frame stash requires knowing its id. So a frame 0 whose frame id is not computed yet is necessarily not in the frame stash. When replaying with btrace, record_btrace_frame_sniffer insert entries corresponding to frames in the "bfcache" hash table. It then relies on record_btrace_frame_dealloc_cache being called for each frame to remove all those entries when the frames get invalidated. If a frame reinit happens while frame 0's id is not computed (and therefore that frame is not in frame_stash), record_btrace_frame_dealloc_cache does not get called for it, and it leaves a stale entry in bfcache. That then leads to a use-after-free when that entry is accessed later, which ASan catches. The proposed solution is to explicitly call frame_info_del on frame 0, if it exists, and if its frame id is not computed. If its frame id is computed, it is expected that it will be in the frame stash, so it will be "deleted" through that.

2023-02-15Remove RETURNS from BFD chew commentsTom Tromey7-51/+26
When reading the BFD manual, I noticed text like this: -- Function: bool bfd_close (bfd *abfd); Close a BFD. If the BFD was open for writing, then pending operations are completed and the file written out and closed. If ... *Returns* 'TRUE' is returned if all is ok, otherwise 'FALSE'. The *Returns*, like the *Synopsis* in the earlier patch, is un-info-like. It's also used inconsistently. This patch removes all the uses of the RETURNS word and removes it entirely from the chew scripts. Now this example reads: -- Function: bool bfd_close (bfd *abfd); Close a BFD. If the BFD was open for writing, then pending operations are completed and the file written out and closed. If ... 'TRUE' is returned if all is ok, otherwise 'FALSE'. In a few cases I had to slightly reword the comment. There were also a couple of cases where there was redundant text. In these cases I just dropped the RETURNS copy. 2023-02-07 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * bfd.c, cache.c, compress.c, opncls.c: Remove RETURNS from documentation comments. * doc/doc.str, doc/proto.str (RETURNS): Remove.
2023-02-15Use @deftypefn in chew outputTom Tromey4-14/+59
When reading the BFD info manual, function definitions looked very strange to me: *Synopsis* long bfd_get_mtime (bfd *abfd); *Description* Return the file modification time (as read from the file system, or from the archive header for archive members). The *Synopsis* and *Description* text in particular is very un-info-like. To fix this, I tried removing the *Synopsis* text and having FUNCTION use @deftypefn instead. However, this ended up requiring some new state, because SYNOPSIS can appear without FUNCTION. This in turn required "catstrif" (I considered adding FORTH-style if-else-then, but in the end decided on an ad hoc approach). After this the result looks like: -- Function: long bfd_get_mtime (bfd *abfd); Return the file modification time (as read from the file system, or from the archive header for archive members). This patch also reorders a few documentation comments to ensure that SYNOPSIS comes before DESCRIPTION. This is the more common style and is also now required by doc.str. 2023-02-07 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * syms.c (bfd_decode_symclass, bfd_is_undefined_symclass) (bfd_symbol_info): Reorder documentation comment. * doc/doc.str (synopsis_seen): New variable.

2023-02-15Simplify @node use in BFD documentationTom Tromey3-29/+35
The BFD docs currently specify all the parameters to @node. However, this results in bad navigation in certain nodes -- the "space" command in info doesn't know how to find the next node. I think this style of @node is a leftover from ancient times.

2023-02-15gdb: store internalvars in an std::mapSimon Marchi1-27/+28
In a test downstream in ROCgdb, we had a test case failing when GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS was set. The test was assuming a particular order in the output of "show convenience". And the order changes when running with GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS. I think that a nice way to fix it is to make the output of "show convenience" sorted, and therefore stable. Ideally, I think that the the user-visible behavior of GDB should not change when using GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS. Plus, it makes the output of "show convenience" look nice, not that it's really important. Implement this by storing the internal vars in an std::map, which is a sorted container.

2023-02-15Do not record a rejected target descriptionTom Tromey1-1/+4
When connecting to a certain target, gdb issues a warning about the target description: (gdb) target remote localhost:7947 Remote debugging using localhost:7947 warning: Architecture rejected target-supplied description If you then kill the inferior and change the exec-file, this will happen: (gdb) file bar Architecture of file not recognized. After this, debugging doesn't work very well. What happens here is that, despite the warning, target_find_description records the downloaded description in the target_desc_info. Then the "file" command ends up calling set_gdbarch_from_file, which uses that description. It seems to me that, because the architecture rejected the description, it should not be used. That is what this patch implements.
2023-02-15gdb/manual: Move @findex entriesPedro Alves1-165/+165
The manual currently has many cases like these: @item $_gdb_setting_str (@var{setting}) @findex $_gdb_setting_str@r{, convenience function} As suggested by Eli, move the @findex entries before @item so that the index records the position of @item, and the Info reader places you there when you use index-search. I went over all @findex calls in the manual, and most are like the above. Most either appear before @item, or before @subheading, like: @subheading The @code{-break-after} Command @findex -break-after I fixed all of them. There are findex entries in annotate.texinfo,python.texi, and stabs.texinfo as well, though those all look right to me already. Tested by typing "i _isvoid" (@item case) and "i -complete" (@subheading case) in an Info reader, and checking where those took me.

2023-02-15gdb, fortran: Fix quad floating-point type for ifort compiler.Felix Willgerodt1-1/+3
I fixed this a while ago for ifx, one of the two Intel compilers, in 8d624a9d8050ca96e154215c7858ac5c2d8b0b19. Apparently I missed that the older ifort Intel compiler actually emits slightly different debug info again: 0x0000007a: DW_TAG_base_type DW_AT_byte_size (0x20) DW_AT_encoding (DW_ATE_complex_float) DW_AT_name ("COMPLEX(16)") 0x00000081: DW_TAG_base_type DW_AT_byte_size (0x10) DW_AT_encoding (DW_ATE_float) DW_AT_name ("REAL(16)") This fixes two failures in gdb.fortran/complex.exp with ifort.

2023-02-15gas: buffer_and_nest() needs to pass nul-terminated string to temp_ilp()Jan Beulich1-5/+5
In 7545aa2dd2eb ("gas: improve interaction between read_a_source_file() and s_linefile()") I didn't pay attention to the dual purpose of the nul character previously used. This was to a fair degree because of the open-coding of certain operations. Insert the earlier found line terminator instead of a hard-coded newline, and do so early in this special case (bypassing the later general insertion point). Plus properly use sb_terminate() to mark the end of the string. (Note that saved_eol_char was misnamed: Without calling sb_terminate() there's simply random data at that position in the buffer.)
2023-02-15More ecoff sanity checksAlan Modra1-20/+24
Change FIX so that unused pointers that escape the UPDATE_RAW_END sanity checks won't result in overflows. Also sanity check the local sym fdr isymBase and csym values. * ecoff.c (_bfd_ecoff_slurp_symbolic_info): Define FIX to set pointers into swapped internal data to NULL if count is zero. Sanity check local sym fdr_ptr->isymBase and fdr_ptr->csym.
2023-02-15binutils stabs type listAlan Modra1-21/+15
Fuzzers have found that specifying a large stab type number results in lots of memory being requested, as the list is extended with a 16 element array at a time until we reach the given stab type. It also takes a long time. Of course normal sane stab types use small positive integers, but it's not hard to modify the code to handle type numbers starting anyhere. * stabs.c (struct stab_types): Add base_index. (stab_find_slot): Simplify filenum check. Delete type number check. Don't allocate entire array from 0 to type number, allocate a sparse array.

I noticed that the TUI temporarily sets pagination_enabled and gdb_stdout in one spot. However, I don't believe these settings are necessary here, as a ui_file is passed to gdbarch_print_registers_info. This patch removes these settings.

Well, a user could delete the directory from their source tree but... it doesn't make sense. Remove the check for that directory in configure.

2023-02-14Do not cast away const in agent_run_commandTom Tromey5-13/+17
While investigating something else, I noticed some weird code in agent_run_command (use of memcpy rather than strcpy). Then I noticed that 'cmd' is used as both an in and out parameter, despite being const. Casting away const like this is bad. This patch removes the const and fixes the memcpy. I also added a static assert to assure myself that the code in gdbserver is correct -- gdbserver is passing its own buffer directly to agent_run_command.

2023-02-14[gdb/testsuite] Add xfail in gdb.python/py-record-btrace.expTom de Vries1-1/+42
There's a HW bug affecting Processor Trace on some Intel processors (Ice Lake to Raptor Lake microarchitectures). The bug was exposed by linux kernel commit 670638477aed ("perf/x86/intel/pt: Opportunistically use single range output mode"), added in version v5.5.0, and was worked around by commit ce0d998be927 ("perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix sampling using single range output") in version 6.1.0. The bug manifests (on a Performance-core of an i7-1250U, an Alder Lake cpu) in a single test-case: ... (gdb) python insn = r.instruction_history^M warning: Decode error (-20) at instruction 33 (offset = 0x3d6a, \ pc = 0x400501): compressed return without call.^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/py-record-btrace.exp: prepare record: \ python insn = r.instruction_history ... Add a corresponding XFAIL. Note that the i7-1250U has both Performance-cores and Efficient-cores, and on an Efficient-Core the test-case runs without any problems, so if the testsuite run is not pinned to a specific cpu, the test may either PASS or XFAIL. Tested on x86_64-linux: - openSUSE Leap 15.4 with linux kernel version 5.14.21 - openSUSE Tumbleweed with linux kernel version 6.1.8 PR testsuite/30075 Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30075

2023-02-14gas: improve interaction between read_a_source_file() and s_linefile()Jan Beulich2-6/+10
read_a_source_file() would bump line numbers only when seeing a newline, whereas is_end_of_line[] indicates further end-of-line characters, in particular the nul character. s_linefile() attempts to compensate for the bump, but was too aggressive with this so far: It should only adjust when a newline ends the line. To facilitate such a check, the check for nothing else on the line needs to move ahead, which luckily is easily possible: The relevant two conditions match, and the function can simply return from the body of that earlier instance of the conditional. The more strict treatment in s_linefile() then requires an adjustment to buffer_and_nest()'s invocation of the function: The line terminator now needs to be a newline, not nul.
2023-02-14Fix build bug in ppc-linux-nat.cTom Tromey1-1/+1
The buildbot pointed out that my value refactoring series introduced a bug in ppc-linux-nat.c: ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/ppc-linux-nat.c: In member function β€˜int ppc_linux_nat_target::num_memory_accesses(const std::vector<gdb::ref_ptr<value, value_ref_policy> >&)’: ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/ppc-linux-nat.c:2458:44: error: expected unqualified-id before β€˜->’ token 2458 | if (VALUE_LVAL (v) == not_lval || v->->deprecated_modifiable () == 0) I don't know how that happened, but I am checking in this patch which I think should fix it. It just removes the second "->". I can't readily test this, so perhaps there's another bug lurking after this one.

2023-02-13Rely on value_ref_ptr::operator->Tom Tromey6-21/+21
Simon pointed out some spots were doing val.get()->mumble, where val is a value_ref_ptr. These were introduced by the function-to-method script, replacing older code that passed the result of .get() to a function. Now that value.h is using methods, we can instead rely on operator->. This patch replaces all the newly-introduced instances of this. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
