TL;DR - GDB can hang if something refreshes the thread list out of the
target while the target is running. GDB hangs inside td_ta_thr_iter.
The fix is to not use that libthread_db function anymore.
Long version:
Running the testsuite against my all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series is
still exposing latent non-stop bugs.
I was originally seeing this with the multi-create.exp test, back when
we were still using libthread_db thread event breakpoints. The
all-stop-on-top-of-non-stop series forces a thread list refresh each
time GDB needs to start stepping over a breakpoint (to pause all
threads). That test hits the thread event breakpoint often, resulting
in a bunch of step-over operations, thus a bunch of thread list
refreshes while some threads in the target are running.
The commit adds a real non-stop mode test that triggers the issue,
based on multi-create.exp, that does an explicit "info threads" when a
breakpoint is hit. IOW, it does the same things the as-ns series was
doing when testing multi-create.exp.
The bug is a race, so it unfortunately takes several runs for the test
to trigger it. In fact, even when setting the test running in a loop,
it sometimes takes several minutes for it to trigger for me.
The race is related to libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter. This is
libthread_db's entry point for walking the thread list of the
inferior.
Sometimes, when GDB refreshes the thread list from the target,
libthread_db's td_ta_thr_iter can somehow see glibc's thread list as a
cycle, and get stuck in an infinite loop.
The issue is that when a thread exits, its thread control structure in
glibc is moved from a "used" list to a "cache" list. These lists are
simply circular linked lists where the "next/prev" pointers are
embedded in the thread control structure itself. The "next" pointer
of the last element of the list points back to the list's sentinel
"head". There's only one set of "next/prev" pointers for both lists;
thus a thread can only be in one of the lists at a time, not in both
simultaneously.
So when thread C exits, simplifying, the following happens. A-C are
threads. stack_used and stack_cache are the list's heads.
Before:
stack_used -> A -> B -> C -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> (&stack_cache)
After:
stack_used -> A -> B -> (&stack_used)
stack_cache -> C -> (&stack_cache)
td_ta_thr_iter starts by iterating at the list's head's next, and
iterates until it sees a thread whose next pointer points to the
list's head again. Thus in the before case above, C's next points to
stack_used, indicating end of list. In the same case, the stack_cache
list is empty.
For each thread being iterated, td_ta_thr_iter reads the whole thread
object out of the inferior. This includes the thread's "next"
pointer.
In the scenario above, it may happen that td_ta_thr_iter is iterating
thread B and has already read B's thread structure just before thread
C exits and its control structure moves to the cached list.
Now, recall that td_ta_thr_iter is running in the context of GDB, and
there's no locking between GDB and the inferior. From it's local copy
of B, td_ta_thr_iter believes that the next thread after B is thread
C, so it happilly continues iterating to C, a thread that has already
exited, and is now in the stack cache list.
After iterating C, td_ta_thr_iter finds the stack_cache head, which
because it is not stack_used, td_ta_thr_iter assumes it's just another
thread. After this, unless the reverse race triggers, GDB gets stuck
in td_ta_thr_iter forever walking the stack_cache list, as no thread
in thatlist has a next pointer that points back to stack_used (the
terminating condition).
Before fully understanding the issue, I tried adding cycle detection
to GDB's td_ta_thr_iter callback. However, td_ta_thr_iter skips
calling the callback in some cases, which means that it's possible
that the callback isn't called at all, making it impossible for GDB to
break the loop. I did manage to get GDB stuck in that state more than
once.
Fortunately, we can avoid the issue altogether. We don't really need
td_ta_thr_iter for live debugging nowadays, given PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE.
We already know how to map and lwp id to a thread id without iterating
(thread_from_lwp), so use that more.

This function has a few latent bugs that are triggered by a non-stop
mode test that will be added in a subsequent patch.
First, as described in the function's intro comment, the function is
supposed to return 1 if we're already auto attached to the thread, but
haven't processed the PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE event of its parent thread
yet.
Then, we may find that we're trying to attach to a clone child that
hasn't yet stopped for its initial stop, and therefore 'waitpid(...,
WNOHANG)' returns 0. In that case, we're currently adding the LWP to
the stopped_pids list, which results in linux_handle_extended_wait
skipping the waitpid call on the child, and thus confusing things
later on when the child eventually reports the stop.
Then, the tail end of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
last_resume_kind of the LWP to resume_stop, which is wrong given that
the user may be doing "info threads" while some threads are running.
And then, the else branch of lin_lwp_attach_lwp always sets the
stopped flag of the LWP. This branch is reached if the LWP is the
main LWP, which may well be running at this point (to it's wrong to
set its 'stopped' flag).
AFAICS, there's no reason anymore for special-casing the main/leader
LWP here:
- For the "attach" case, linux_nat_attach already adds the main LWP to
the lwp list, and sets its 'stopped' flag.
- For the "run" case, after linux_nat_create_inferior, end up in
linux_nat_wait_1 here:
/* The first time we get here after starting a new inferior, we may
not have added it to the LWP list yet - this is the earliest
moment at which we know its PID. */
if (ptid_is_pid (inferior_ptid))
{
/* Upgrade the main thread's ptid. */
thread_change_ptid (inferior_ptid,
ptid_build (ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid),
ptid_get_pid (inferior_ptid), 0));
lp = add_initial_lwp (inferior_ptid);
lp->resumed = 1;
}
... which adds the LWP to the LWP list already, before
lin_lwp_attach_lwp can ever be reached.

Another fix I'm working made schedlock.exp fail with gdbserver
frequently. Looking deeper, it turns out to be a pre-existing bug.
status_pending_p_callback is filtering out LWPs incorrectly. The
result is that that sometimes status_pending_p_callback returns a
pending event for an LWP that isn't expected, and then GDBserver gets
very confused.
E.g,. when doing a step-over, linux_wait_for_event is called with a
particular LWP's ptid, meaning events for all other LWPs should be
left pending, but here we see it retuning an event for some other LWP:
linux_wait_1: [<all threads>]
step_over_bkpt set [LWP 29577.29577], doing a blocking wait <--------
my_waitpid (-1, 0x40000001)

Even though this target supports tracing, the test restarts GDB and

at that point, GDB only has the "exec" target, which obviously doesn't
do tracing.
The test is about doing "tstart" before running a program, so the fix
is to do gdb_target_supports_trace with whatever target GDB ends up
connected after clean_restart.

On GNU/Linux, if a pthreaded program has a thread call clone(CLONE_VM)
directly, and then that clone LWP hits a debug event (breakpoint,
etc.) GDB internal errors. Threaded programs shouldn't really be
calling clone directly, but GDB shouldn't crash either.
The crash looks like this:
(gdb) break clone_fn
Breakpoint 2 at 0x4007d8: file clone-thread_db.c, line 35.
(gdb) r
...
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
...
src/gdb/linux-nat.c:1030: internal-error: lin_lwp_attach_lwp: Assertion `lwpid > 0' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
The problem is that 'clone' ends up clearing the parent thread's tid
field in glibc's thread data structure. For x86_64, the glibc code in
question is here:
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:
...
testq $CLONE_THREAD, %rdi
jne 1f
testq $CLONE_VM, %rdi
movl $-1, %eax <----
jne 2f
movl $SYS_ify(getpid), %eax
syscall
2: movl %eax, %fs:PID
movl %eax, %fs:TID <----
1:
When GDB refreshes the thread list out of libthread_db, it finds a
thread with LWP with pid -1 (the clone's parent), which naturally
isn't yet on the thread list. GDB then tries to attach to that bogus
LWP id, which is caught by that assertion.
The fix is to detect the bad PID early.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20. GDBserver doesn't need any fix.

The IBM z13 has new 128-bit wide vector registers v0-v31, where v0-v15
include the existing 64-bit wide floating point registers. The Linux
kernel presents the vector registers as two additional register sets,
one for the right halves of v0-v15 and another one for the full
registers v16-v31. Thus a new core file may contain two new register
note sections, and this patch adds support to binutils for them.

When gdb creates a dummy frame to execute a function in the inferior,
the process may generate a SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL because the stack
is non executable. If the signal handler set in gdb has option print
or stop enabled for these signals gdb handles this correctly.
However, in the case of noprint and nostop the signal is short-circuited
and the inferior process is sent the signal directly. This causes the
inferior to crash because of gdb.
This patch adds a check for SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP or SIGILL so that these
signals are sent to gdb rather than short-circuited in the inferior.
gdb then handles them properly and the inferior process does not
crash.
This patch also fixes the same behavior in gdbserver.
Also added a small testcase to test the issue called catch-gdb-caused-signals.
This applies to Linux only, tested on Linux.

gdb/doc/agentexpr.texi documents the "setv" opcode as follow:
@item @code{setv} (0x2d) @var{n}: @result{} @var{v}
Set trace state variable number @var{n} to the value found on the top
of the stack. The stack is unchanged, so that the value is readily
available if the assignment is part of a larger expression. The
handling of @var{n} is as described for @code{getv}.
The @item line is incorrect (and does not match with its
description), so this patch fixes it.
Additionally, in gdb/common/ax.def we find the line:
DEFOP (setv, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0x2d)
From the comment earlier in the file:
Each line is of the form:
DEFOP (name, size, data_size, consumed, produced, opcode)
[...]
CONSUMED is the number of stack elements consumed.
PRODUCED is the number of stack elements produced.
which is saying that nothing is consumed and one item is produced.
Both should be 0 or both should be 1.
This patch sets them both to 1, which seems better since if nothing
is on the stack an error will occur.

This patch teaches the TUI to resize itself asynchronously instead of
synchronously. Asynchronously resizing the screen when the underlying
terminal gets resized is the more intuitive behavior and is surprisingly
simple to implement thanks to GDB's async infrastructure.
The implementation is straightforward. TUI's SIGWINCH handler is just
tweaked to asynchronously invoke a new callback,
tui_async_resize_screen, which is responsible for safely resizing the
screen. Care must be taken to not to attempt to asynchronously resize
the screen while the TUI is not active. When the TUI is not active, the
callback will do nothing, but the screen will yet be resized in the next
call to tui_enable() by virtue of win_resized being TRUE.
(So, after the patch there are still two places where the screen gets
resized: one in tui_enable() and the other now in
tui_async_resize_screen() as opposed to being in
tui_handle_resize_during_io(). The one in tui_enable() is still
necessary to handle the case where the terminal gets resized inside the
CLI: in that case, the TUI still needs resizing, but it must wait until
the TUI gets re-enabled.)

This patch adds the target-specific code in order to support the
calculation of DTrace probes arguments in x86_64 targets, and also the

This patch adds a new type of probe to GDB: the DTrace USDT probes. The new
type is added by providing functions implementing all the entries of the
`probe_ops' structure defined in `probe.h'. The implementation is
self-contained and does not depend on DTrace source code in any way.

dtrace_enable_probe, dtrace_disable_probe.
This patch adds several gdbarch functions (along with the corresponding
predicates): `dtrace_parse_probe_argument', `dtrace_probe_is_enabled',
`dtrace_enable_probe' and `dtrace_disable_probe'. These functions will
be implemented by target-specific code, and called from the DTrace
probes implementation in order to calculate the value of probe
arguments, and manipulate is-enabled probes.

This patch adds the above-mentioned commands to the generic probe
abstraction implemented in probe.[ch]. The effects associated to
enabling or disabling a probe depend on the type of probe being
handled, and is triggered by invoking two back-end hooks in
`probe_ops'.
In case some particular probe type does not support the notion of
enabling and/or disabling, the corresponding fields on `probe_ops' can
be initialized to NULL. This is the case of SystemTap probes.

This patch moves the `compute_probe_arg' and `compile_probe_arg' functions
from stap-probe.c to probe.c. The rationale is that it is reasonable to
assume that all backends will provide the `$_probe_argN' convenience
variables, and that the user must be placed on the PC of the probe when
requesting that information. The value and type of the argument can still be
determined by the probe backend via the `pops->evaluate_probe_argument' and
`pops->compile_to_ax' handlers.
Note that a test in gdb.base/stap-probe.exp had to be adjusted because the "No
SystemTap probe at PC" messages are now "No probe at PC".

A "probe type" (backend for the probe abstraction implemented in
probe.[ch]) can extend the information printed by `info probes' by
defining additional columns. This means that when `info probes' is
used to print all the probes regardless of their types, some of the
columns will be "not applicable" to some of the probes (like, say, the
Semaphore column only makes sense for SystemTap probes). This patch
makes `info probes' fill these slots with "n/a" marks (currently it
breaks the table) and not include headers for which no actual probe
has been found in the list of defined probes.
This patch also adds support for a new generic column "Type", that
displays the type of each probe. SystemTap probes identify themselves
as "stap" probes.

I was having a little closer look at what is going on here and noticed
that HJ unconditionally emits a NULL STT_FILE symbol before emitting
forced local symbols. That means we really don't need a second pass
over forced local symbols. The only reason for two passes is when
some forced local symbol can be emitted before the NULL STT_FILE. So
I set about removing the second pass, updating the testsuite all over
again. It's also unnecessary to emit the NULL STT_FILE when no
previous file symbol has been emitted.

The function key_is_command_char() is simply a predicate that determines
whether the function tui_dispatch_ctrl_char() will do anything useful.
Since tui_dispatch_ctrl_char() performs the same checks as
key_is_command_char() it is unnecessary to keep key_is_command_char()
around. This patch removes this useless function and instead
unconditionally calls tui_dispatch_ctrl_char() inside its only caller,
tui_getc().

* tui/tui-io.c (tui_getc): Don't call key_is_command_char.
(key_is_command_char): Delete.

If the user:
#1 - disables the TUI
#2 - resizes the terminal
#3 - and then re-enables the TUI
the next wgetch() returns KEY_RESIZE. This indicates to the ncurses
client that ncurses detected that the terminal has been resized. We
don't handle KEY_RESIZE anywhere, so it gets passed on to readline
which interprets it as a multibyte character, and then the end result
is that the first key press after enabling the TUI is misinterpreted.
We shouldn't really need to handle KEY_RESIZE (and not all ncurses
implementations have that). We have our own SIGWINCH handler, and,
when we re-enable the TUI, we explicitly detect terminal resizes and
resize all windows. The reason ncurses currently does detects a
resize is that something within tui_enable forces a refresh/display of
some window before we get to do the actual resizing. Setting a break
on ncurses' 'resizeterm' function helps find the culprit(s):
(top-gdb) bt

That is, tui_enable calls tui_set_key_mode before we've resized all
windows, and that refreshes a window as side effect.
And if we're already debugging something (there's a frame), then we'll
instead show a window from within tui_show_frame_info:

In PR 13577, the complaint was that -Bsymbolic was overriding the binding
behavior for symbols listed in the --dynamic-list by setting the DT_SYMBOLIC
tag in the dynamic table. In reading the Gnu ld manual, I decided that
--dynamic-list should be mutually exclusive of -Bsymbolic, and modified
gold so that --dynamic-list would treat symbols listed as preemptible,
and all other symbols as internally bound. I was wrong.
PR 16992 shows that with --dynamic-list (and not -Bsymbolic), a symbol
not listed in the dynamic list is being internally bound within the
shared library, but because it's still in the dynamic symbol table, we
expose it to a COPY relocation, and things go really bad from there.
(I can reproduce the same failure, simply by turning on -Bsymbolic-functions
with the Gnu linker. Even though the symbol is bound internally, it's
still exported to the dynamic symbol table, and is exposed to a COPY
relocation.)
I've backed out part of the fix for PR 13577, and -Bsymbolic (or
-Bsymbolic-functions) can now be used with --dynamic-list, but if the
two are used together, we do not set DT_SYMBOLIC or DF_SYMBOLIC
(this matches Gnu ld behavior). We now treat symbols listed in the
dynamic list as premptible, but we do not automatically treat symbols
not listed there as non-premptible.
