I added the same comment for nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c yesterday.
Christian suggested adding the comment for the other file that I had
identified as including both <sys/ptrace.h> and <asm/ptrace.h>.
I searched the sources in gdb/, but found no other files which include
both of these headers.
If possible, I would prefer to see us use <sys/ptrace.h> when possible,
however, from past experience, I've found that this file does not always
contain all of the constants, etc. required by the particular source
file.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.h: Add comment regarding include
order for <sys/ptrace.h> and <asm/ptrace.h>.

As reported in PR 26861, when killing an inferior on macOS, we hit the
assert:
../../gdb-10.1/gdb/target.c:2149: internal-error: void target_mourn_inferior(ptid_t): Assertion `ptid == inferior_ptid' failed.
This is because darwin_nat_target::kill passes a pid-only ptid to
target_mourn_inferior, with the pid of the current inferior:
target_mourn_inferior (ptid_t (inf->pid));
... which doesn't satisfy the assert in target_mourn_inferior:
gdb_assert (ptid == inferior_ptid);
The reason for this assertion is that target_mourn_inferior is a
prototype shared between GDB and GDBserver, so that shared code in
gdb/nat (used in both GDB and GDBserver) can call target_mourn_inferior.
In GDB's implementation, it is likely that some targets still rely on
inferior_ptid being set to "the current thread we are working on". So
until targets are completely decoupled from inferior_ptid (at least
their mourn_inferior implementations), we need to ensure the passed in
ptid matches inferior_ptid, to ensure the calling code called
target_mourn_inferior with the right global context.
However, I think the assert is a bit too restrictive. The
mourn_inferior operation works on an inferior, not a specific thread.
And by the time we call mourn_inferior, the threads of the inferior
don't exist anymore, the process is gone, so it doesn't really make
sense to require inferior_ptid to point a specific thread.
I looked at all the target_ops::mourn_inferior implementations, those
that read inferior_ptid only care about the pid field, which supports
the idea that only the inferior matters. Other implementations look at
the current inferior (call `current_inferior ()`).
I think it would make sense to change target_mourn_inferior to accept
only a pid rather than a ptid. It would then assert that the pid is the
same as the current inferior's pid. However, this would be a quite
involved change, so I'll keep it for later.
To fix the macOS issue immediately, I propose to relax the assert to
only compare the pids, as is done in this patch.
Another solution would obviously be to make darwin_nat_target::kill pass
inferior_ptid to target_mourn_inferior. However, the solution I propose
is more in line with where I think we want to go (passing a pid to
target_mourn_inferior).

This change fixes the initial state of the main thread of remote
targets which have no concept of threading. Such targets are
treated as single-threaded by gdb, and this single thread needs
to be initially set to the "resumed" state, in the same manner as
threads in thread-aware remote targets (see remote.c,
remote_target::remote_add_thread).
Without this fix, the following assert was triggered on thread-
unaware remote targets:
remote_target::select_thread_for_ambiguous_stop_reply(const target_waitstatus*): Assertion `first_resumed_thread != nullptr' failed.
The bug can be reproduced using gdbserver
* by disabling packets 'T' and 'qThreadInfo', or
* by disabling all thread-related packets.
The test suite has been updated to include these two scenarios, see
gdb.server/stop-reply-no-thread.exp.

When attempting to call a Fortran function for which there is no debug
information we currently trigger undefined behaviour in GDB by
accessing non-existent type fields.
The reason is that in order to prepare the arguments, for a call to a
Fortran function, we need to know the type of each argument. If the
function being called has no debug information then obviously GDB
doesn't know about the argument types and we should either give the
user an error or pick a suitable default. What we currently do is
just assume the field exist and access undefined memory, which is
clearly wrong.
The reason GDB needs to know the argument type is to tell if the
argument is artificial or not, artificial arguments will be passed by
value while non-artificial arguments will be passed by reference.
An ideal solution for this problem would be to allow the user to cast
the function to the correct type, we already do this to some degree
with the return value, for example:
(gdb) print some_func_ ()
'some_func_' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
(gdb) print (integer) some_func_ ()
$1 = 1
But if we could extend this to allow casting to the full function
type, GDB could figure out from the signature what are real
parameters, and what are artificial parameters. Maybe something like
this:
(gdb) print ((integer () (integer, double)) some_other_func_ (1, 2.3)
Alas, right now the Fortran expression parser doesn't seem to support
parsing function signatures, and we certainly don't have support for
figuring out real vs artificial arguments from a signature.
Still, I think we can prevent GDB from accessing undefined memory and
provide a reasonable default behaviour.
In this commit I:
- Only ask if the argument is artificial if the type of the argument
is actually known.
- Unknown arguments are assumed to be artificial and passed by
value (non-artificial arguments are pass by reference).
- If an artificial argument is prefixed with '&' by the user then we
treat the argument as pass-by-reference.
With these three changes we avoid undefined behaviour in GDB, and
allow the user, in most cases, to get a reasonably natural default
behaviour.

This commit adds support for the ASSOCIATED builtin to the Fortran
expression evaluator. The ASSOCIATED builtin takes one or two
arguments.
When passed a single pointer argument GDB returns a boolean indicating
if the pointer is associated with anything.
When passed two arguments the second argument should either be some a
pointer could point at or a second pointer.
If the second argument is a pointer target, then the result from
associated indicates if the pointer is pointing at this target.
If the second argument is another pointer, then the result from
associated indicates if the two pointers are pointing at the same
thing.

* nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c: Add comment regarding include
order for <sys/ptrace.h> and <asm/ptrace.h>.
|

Due to a recent glibc header file change, the file
nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c no longer builds on Fedora rawhide.
An enum for PTRACE_SYSEMU is now provided by <sys/ptrace.h>. In the
past, PTRACE_SYSEMU was defined only in <asm/ptrace.h>. This is
what it looks like...
In <asm/ptrace.h>:
#define PTRACE_SYSEMU 31
In <sys/ptrace.h>:
enum __ptrace_request
{
...
PTRACE_SYSEMU = 31,
#define PT_SYSEMU PTRACE_SYSEMU
...
}
When <asm/ptrace.h> and <sys/ptrace.h> are both included in a source
file, we run into the following build problem when the former is
included before the latter:
In file included from nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c:26:
/usr/include/sys/ptrace.h:86:3: error: expected identifier before numeric constant
86 | PTRACE_SYSEMU = 31,

(There are more errors after this one too.)
The file builds without error when <asm/ptrace.h> is included after
<sys/ptrace.h>. I found that this is already done in
nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.h (which is included by

The only target that implements target_ops::get_section_table in a
meaningful way is exec_target. This target calls back into the
program space to return the current global section_table.
The global section table is populated whenever the user provides GDB
with an executable, or when a symbol file is loaded, e.g. when a
dynamic library is loaded, or when the user does add-symbol-file.
I recently ran into a situation where a user, debugging a remote
target, was not supplying GDB with a main executable at all. Instead
the user attached to the target then did add-symbol-file, and then
proceeded to debug the target.
This works fine, but it was noticed that even when
trust-readonly-sections was on GDB was still accessing the target to
get the contents of readonly sections.
The problem is that by not providing an executable there was no
exec_target in the target stack, and so when GDB calls the
target_ops::get_section_table function GDB ends up in
dummy_target::get_section_table, which just returns NULL.
What I want is that even when GDB doesn't have an exec_target in the
target stack, a call to target_ops::get_section_table will still
return the section_table from the current program space.
When considering how to achieve this my first though was, why is the
request for the section table going via the target stack at all? The
set of sections loaded is a property of the program space, not the
target. This is, after all, why the data is being stored in the
program space.
So I initially tried changing target_get_section_table so that,
instead of calling into the target it just returns
current_program_space->target_sections ().
This would be fine except for one issue, target_bfd (from
bfd-target.c). This code is used from solib-svr4.c to create a
temporary target_ops structure that implements two functions
target_bfd::xfer_partial and target_bfd::get_section_table.
The purpose behind the code is to enable two targets, ppc64 and frv to
decode function descriptors from the dynamic linker, based on the
non-relocated addresses from within the dynamic linker bfd object.
Both of the implemented functions in target_bfd rely on the target_bfd
object holding a section table, and the ppc64 target requires that the
target_bfd implement ::get_section_table.
The frv target doesn't require ::get_section_table, instead it
requires the ::xfer_partial. We could in theory change the ppc64
target to use the same approach as frv, however, this would be a bad
idea. I believe that the frv target approach is broken. I'll
explain:
The frv target calls get_target_memory_unsigned to read the function
descriptor. The address being read is the non-relocated address read
from the dynamic linker in solib-srv4.c:enable_break. Calling
get_target_memory_unsigned eventually ends up in target_xfer_partial
with an object type of TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY. This will then call
memory_xfer_check_region. I believe that it is quite possible that a
the non-relocated addresses pulled from the dynamic linker could be in
a memory region that is not readable, while the relocated addresses
are in a readable memory region. If this was ever the case for the
frv target then GDB would reject the attempt to read the non-relocated
function pointer.
In contrast the ppc64 target calls target_section_by_addr, which calls
target_get_section_table, which then calls the ::get_section_table
function on the target.
Thus, when reflecting on target_bfd we see two functions,
::xfer_partial and ::get_section_table. The former is required by the
frv target, but that target is (I think) potentially broken. While
the latter is required by the ppc64 target, but this forces
::get_section_table to exist as a target_ops member function.
So my original plan, have target_get_section_table NOT call a
target_ops member function appears to be flawed.
My next idea was to remove exec_target::get_section_table, and instead
move the implementation into dummy_target::get_section_table.
Currently the dummy_target implementation always returns NULL
indicating no section table, but plenty of other dummy_target member
functions do more than just return null values.
So now, dummy_target::get_section_table returns the section table from
the current program space. This allows target_bfd to remain
unchanged, so ppc64 and frv should not be affected.
Making this change removes the requirement for the user to provide an
executable, GDB can now always access the section_table, as the
dummy_target always exists in the target stack.
Finally, there's a test that the target_section table is not empty in
the case where the user does add-symbol-file without providing an
executable.

Following on from earlier commits which made access to the
target_sections table more 'const', this commit makes the table
private within the program_space class and provides member functions
to access the table.
Ideally I would have liked for the new target_sections member
function (on program_space) to return a 'const' reference to the table
within the program_space. Unfortunately, there are two places in
solib-*.c, where code outside of the program_space class modifies the
target_sections table, and so to support this we need to return a
non-const reference.

We already have a command 'maint info sections', this command prints
all sections from all known object files.
However, GDB maintains a second section table internally. This
section table is used when GDB wants to read directly from an object
file rather than actually reading memory on the target. As such only
some sections (the allocatable ones) are added to this secondary
section table.
I recently ran into a situation where some of GDB's optimisations for
reading directly from the files were not working. In 'maint info
sections' I could see that GDB knew about the object file, and did
know about the sections that it _should_ have been reading from. But
I couldn't ask GDB which sections it had copied into its secondary
section table.
This commit adds a new command 'maint info target-sections' that fills
this gap. This command lists only those sections that GDB has copied
into its secondary table.
You'll notice that the testsuite includes a comment indicating that
there's a bug in GDB. Normally this is not something I would add to
the testsuite, instead we should raise an actual bugzilla bug and then
mark an xfail, however, a later patch in this series will remove this
comment once the actual bug in GDB is fixed.

GDB for RISC-V always uses target descriptions. When the target
doesn't provide a target description then a default is selected.
Usually this default is selected based on the properties of the
executable being debugged. However, when there is no executable being
debugged we currently fallback to the riscv:rv64 target description as
the default. This leads to strange behaviour like this:
$ gdb
(gdb) set architecture riscv:rv32
(gdb) p sizeof ($pc)
$1 = 8
Despite the users specifically setting the architecture to riscv:rv32
GDB still thinks that the target has riscv:rv64 register sizes.
The above is a bit of a contrived situation. I actually ran into this
situation while trying to connect to a running riscv:rv32 target
without supplying an executable (the target didn't provide a target
description). When I tried to set a register on the target I ran into
errors because GDB was passing 8 bytes to the target rather than the
expected 4. Even when I manually specified the architecture (as
above) I couldn't convince GDB to only send 4 bytes.
This patch fixes this issue. Now, when we selected a default target
description we will make use of the user selected architecture to
guide our choice. In the above example we now get:
$ gdb
(gdb) set architecture riscv:rv32
(gdb) p sizeof ($pc)
$1 = 4
And my real world example of connecting to a remote without an
executable works fine.
I've used the fact that we can ask GDB about $pc even when no
executable is loaded as the basis for a test to cover this situation.

EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS, GDB currently (mostly) returns the result of
a call to value_zero meaning we get back an object with the correct
type, but its contents are all zero.
If the target type contains fields with dynamic type then in order to
resolve these dynamic fields GDB will need to read the value of the
field from within the parent object. In this case the field value
will be zero as a result of the call to value_zero mentioned above.
The idea behind EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS is to avoid the chance that
doing something like `ptype` will modify state within the target, for
example consider: ptype i++.
However, there is already precedence within GDB that sometimes, in
order to get accurate type results, we can't avoid reading from the
target, even when EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS is in effect. For example I
would point to eval.c:evaluate_var_value, the handling of OP_REGISTER,
the handling of value_x_unop in many places. I believe the Ada
expression evaluator also ignore EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS in some
cases.
I am therefor proposing that, in the case where a pointer points at a
dynamic type, we allow UNOP_IND to perform the actual indirection.
This allows accurate types to be displayed in more cases.

* eval.c (evaluate_subexp_standard): Call value_ind for points to
dynamic types in UNOP_IND.

As described in the log of patch "gdb/dwarf: add assertion in
maybe_queue_comp_unit", it would happen that a call to
maybe_queue_comp_unit would enqueue a CU in the to-expand queue while
nothing up the stack was processing the queue. This is not desirable,
as items are then left lingering in the queue when we exit the
dwarf2/read code. This is an inconsistent state.
The normal case of using the queue is when we go through
dw2_do_instantiate_symtab and process_queue. As depended-on CUs are
found, they get added to the queue. process_queue expands CUs until the
queue is empty.
To catch these cases where things are enqueued while nothing up the
stack is processing the queue, change dwarf2_per_bfd::queue to be an
optional. The optional is instantiated in dwarf2_queue_guard, just
before where we call process_queue. In the dwarf2_queue_guard
destructor, the optional gets reset. Therefore, the queue object is
instantiated only when something up the stack is handling it. If
another entry point tries to enqueue a CU for expansion, an assertion
will fail and we know we have something to fix.
dwarf2_queue_guard sounds like the good place for this, as it's
currently responsible for making sure the queue gets cleared if we exit
due to an error.
This also allows asserting that when age_comp_units or remove_all_cus
run, the queue is not instantiated, and gives us one more level of
assurance that we won't free the DIEs of a CU that is in the
CUs-to-expand queue.

The previous commit log described how items could be left lingering in
the dwarf2_per_bfd::queue and how that could cause trouble.
This patch fixes the issue by changing maybe_queue_comp_unit so that it
doesn't put a CU in the to-expand queue if that CU is already expanded.
This will make it so that when dwarf2_fetch_die_type_sect_off calls
follow_die_offset and maybe_queue_comp_unit, it won't enqueue the target
CU, because it will see the CU is already expanded.
This assumes that if a CU is dwarf2_fetch_die_type_sect_off's target CU,
it will have previously been expanded. I think it is the case, but I
can't be 100% sure. If that's not true, the assertions added in the
following patch will catch it, and it means we'll have to re-think a bit
more how things work (it wouldn't be well handled at all today anyway).
This fixes something else in maybe_queue_comp_unit that looks wrong.
Imagine the DIEs of a CU are loaded in memory, but that CU is not
expanded. In that case, maybe_queue_comp_unit will use this early
return:
/* If the compilation unit is already loaded, just mark it as
used. */
dwarf2_cu *cu = per_objfile->get_cu (per_cu);
if (cu != nullptr)
{
cu->last_used = 0;
return 0;
}
... so the CU won't be queued for expansion. Whether the DIEs of a CU
are loaded in memory and whether that CU is expanded are two orthogonal
things, but that function appears to mix them. So, move the queuing
above that check / early return, so that if the CU's DIEs are loaded in
memory but the CU is not expanded yet, it gets enqueued.
I tried to improve maybe_queue_comp_unit's documentation to clarify what
the return value means. By clarifying this, I noticed that two callers
(follow_die_offset and follow_die_sig_1) access the CU's DIEs after
calling maybe_queue_comp_unit, only relying on maybe_queue_comp_unit's
return value to tell whether DIEs need to be loaded first or not. As
explained in the new comment, this is problematic:
maybe_queue_comp_unit's return value doesn't tell whether DIEs are
currently loaded, it means whether maybe_queue_comp_unit requires the
caller to load them. If the CU is already expanded but the DIEs to have
been freed, maybe_queue_comp_unit returns 0, meaning "I don't need you
to load the DIEs". So if these two functions (follow_die_offset and
follow_die_sig_1) need to access the DIEs in any case, for their own
usage, they should make sure to load them if they are not loaded
already. I therefore added an extra check to the condition they use,
making it so they will always load the DIEs if they aren't already.
From what I found, other callers don't care for the CU's DIEs, they call
maybe_queue_comp_unit to ensure the CU gets expanded eventually, but
don't care for it after that.

I noticed that linux_nat_filter_event returns a value, but its caller
doesn't use it. This has been since 9c02b52532ac ("linux-nat.c: better
starvation avoidance, handle non-stop mode too"). Before that commit,
the return value was used to tell the caller whether to continue
processing that event or not. But since then, the model is that we pull
all events from the kernel and linux_nat_filter_event just saves the
status to the lwp_info structure if it thinks it's relevant. And the
caller, linux_nat_wait_1, selects a status at random amongst the threads
with a pending status. So essentially, the return value of
linux_nat_filter_event does not have a reason to be anymore. Change it
so it returns void.

While looking at Andrew's recent target sections series, I saw that
target_bfd_reopen took a "bfd *", leading to a call to new_reference.
However, because the only caller of target_bfd_reopen is already using
gdb_bfd_ref_ptr, this code can be simplified and the explicit call to
new_reference can be removed.

Unlike the previous patch, I don't propose that we take this patch into
gdb-10-branch.
This patch adds two asserts, prompted by investigating and fixing the
bug fixed by the previous patch.
The assert in find_thread_ptid would have caught the original issue
before the segfault (I think it's slightly more use friendly).
The assert in add_thread_silent would have made it clear that the
solution proposed in [1] isn't the right one. The solution ended up
passing nullptr as a target to add_thread. We don't want that, because
add_thread_silent uses it to look up the inferior to which to add the
thread. If the target is nullptr, we could find an inferior with the
same pid, but belonging to an unrelated target. So we always want a
non-nullptr target in add_thread_silent.

Since this is a GDB 9 -> 10 regression, I would like to push it to
gdb-10-branch.
This is a follow-up to:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-February/176202.html
This patch fixes a segfault seen when attaching to a process on Solaris.
The steps leading to the segfault are:
- procfs_target::attach calls do_attach, at this point the inferior's
process slot in the target stack is empty.
- do_attach adds a thread with `add_thread (&the_procfs_target, ptid)`
- in add_thread_silent, the passed target (&the_procfs_target) is
passed to find_inferior_ptid
- find_inferior_ptid returns nullptr, as there is no inferior with this
ptid that has &the_procfs_target as its process target
- the nullptr `inf` is passed to find_thread_ptid, which dereferences
it, causing a segfault
- back in procfs_target::attach, after do_attach, we push the
the_procfs_target on the inferior's target stack, although we never
reach this because the segfault happens before.
To fix this, I think we need to do the same as is done in
inf_ptrace_target::attach: push the target early and unpush it in case
the attach fails (and keep it if the attach succeeds).
Implement it by moving target_unpush_up to target.h, so it can be
re-used here. Make procfs_target::attach use it. Note that just like
is mentioned in inf_ptrace_target::attach, we should push the target
before calling target_pid_to_str, so that calling target_pid_to_str ends
up in procfs_target::pid_to_str.
Tested by trying to attach on a process on gcc211 on the gcc compile
farm.

On Fedora rawhide, after updating to glibc-2.33, I'm seeing the
following build failure:

glibc-2.33 has changed signal.h to now include <bits/sigstksz.h> which,
in turn, includes <unistd.h>. For a gdb build, this causes the gnulib
version of unistd.h to be pulled in first. The build failure shown
above happens because gnulib's config.h has not been included before
the include of <signal.h>.
The fix is simple - we just rearrange the order of the header file
includes to make sure that gdbsupport/commondefs.h is included before
attempting to include signal.h. Note that gdbsupport/commondefs.h
includes <gnulib/config.h>.
Build and regression tested on Fedora 33. On Fedora rawhide, GDB
builds again.

This introduces a new method, expression::evaluate, and changes the
top-level expression-evaluation functions to use it. Stack temporary
handling is moved into this new method, which makes sense because that
handling was only done when "*pos == 0".
This patch avoids some temporary regressions related to stack
temporary in the larger expression rewrite series. I've pulled it out
separately because it seems like a reasonable change in its own right,
and because it's better to avoid making that series even longer.

Any code using AC_DEBUGINFOD from this dir is using -I../config when
running aclocal, so an explicit include on pkg.m4 is unnecessary:
aclocal will find the pkg.m4 in this dir just as easily. This is
seen in the only two dirs that use AC_DEBUGINFOD (binutils & gdb)
as their aclocal.m4 already has m4_include on config m4 files.
The include as written only works if aclocal is run on a dir that is
at the same level of config/. Any other depth will fail.

The problem is that glibc-internal signal SIGCANCEL is not recognized by gdb.
There's code in check_thread_signals that is supposed to take care of that,
but it's not working because this code in lin_thread_get_thread_signals has
stopped working:
...
/* NPTL reserves the first two RT signals, but does not provide any
way for the debugger to query the signal numbers - fortunately
they don't change. */
sigaddset (set, __SIGRTMIN);
sigaddset (set, __SIGRTMIN + 1);
...
Since glibc commit d2dc5467c6 "Filter out NPTL internal signals (BZ #22391)"
(first released as part of glibc 2.28), a sigaddset with a glibc-internal
signal has no other effect than setting errno to EINVALID.
Fix this by eliminating the usage of sigset_t in check_thread_signals and
lin_thread_get_thread_signals.

The 'maintenance info sections' command currently takes a list of
filters on the command line. It can also accept the magic string
'ALLOBJ' which acts more like a command line flag, telling the command
to print information about all objfiles.
The manual has this to say about the options and filters:
... In addition, 'maint info sections' provides the following
command options (which may be arbitrarily combined): ...
Implying (to me at least) that I can do this:
(gdb) maint info sections ALLOBJ READONLY
to list all the read-only sections from all currently loaded object
files.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work. The READONLY filter will work, but
ALLOBJ will not be detected correctly.
It would be fairly simple to fix the ALLOBJ detection. However, I
dislike this mixing of command options (ALLOBJ) with command data (the
filters, e.g. READONLY, etc).
As this is a maintenance command, so not really intended for end
users, I think we can be a little more aggressive in "fixing" the
option parsing. So that's what I do in this commit.
The ALLOBJ mechanism is replaced with a real command
option (-all-objects). The rest of the command operates just as
before. The example above would now become:
(gdb) maint info sections -all-objects READONLY
The manual has been updated, and I added a NEWS entry to document the
change.

The 'maint info sections' command is split into two blocks or work,
first if there's an executable then the sections from the executable,
and optionally all other loaded object files are printed. Then all
the sections from any core file are printed.
I ran into a situation where (for various reasons) I wasn't using a
main executable. Instead I connected to a remote target and used
add-symbol-file. This allowed me to debug an image that was already
loaded on the remote system.
Unfortunately, when I tried to use 'maint info sections' I saw
nothing. The reason is that the loop over all object files is hidden
behind a check that we have a main executable.
This commit removes this check and merges together some duplicate
code. I also (I think) made the output of this command cleaner.
Here is the original output of 'maint info sections':
Exec file:
`/tmp/hello.x', file type elf64-x86-64.
[0] 0x004002a8->0x004002c4 at 0x000002a8: .interp ALLOC LOAD READONLY DATA HAS_CONTENTS
[1] 0x004002c4->0x004002e8 at 0x000002c4: .note.gnu.build-id ALLOC LOAD READONLY DATA HAS_CONTENTS
...
And my modified output:
Exec file: `/home/andrew/tmp/hello.x', file type elf64-x86-64.
[0] 0x004002a8->0x004002c4 at 0x000002a8: .interp ALLOC LOAD READONLY DATA HAS_CONTENTS
[1] 0x004002c4->0x004002e8 at 0x000002c4: .note.gnu.build-id ALLOC LOAD READONLY DATA HAS_CONTENTS
...
The forced newline after 'Exec file: ' has been removed. This is now
a wrap point (in case the filename is very long).
Here is the original output of 'maint info sections ALLOBJ':
Exec file:
`/tmp/hello.x', file type elf64-x86-64.
Object file: /tmp/hello.x

The executable now only gets a single header line. The header line
for the additional object files is no longer indented as it was
before, and the line is laid out in a similar style to the main
executable line (with quotes and file type information).
And of course, the biggest change. If GDB is started with no
executable, but then the user does 'add-symbol-file ....' followed by
'maint info sections ALLOBJ', previously they got nothing, now they
get:
Object file: `/tmp/hello.x', file type elf64-x86-64.

Add support for the LBOUND and UBOUND built in functions to the
Fortran expression parser.
Both support taking one or two arguments. A single argument, which
must be an array, returns an array containing all of the lower or
upper bound data.
When passed two arguments, the second argument is the dimension being
asked about. In this case the result is a scalar containing the lower
or upper bound just for that dimension.
Some examples of usage taken from the new test:
# Given:
# integer, dimension (-8:-1,-10:-2) :: neg_array
#
(gdb) p lbound (neg_array)
$1 = (-8, -10)
(gdb) p lbound (neg_array, 1)

Delete two more symbol/section related macros. This time it's
SYMBOL_SECTION and MSYMBOL_SECTION.
As with general_symbol_info::m_name it is not currently possible to
make general_symbol_info::m_section private as general_symbol_info
must remain a POD type.
But other than failing to make the new m_section private, this change
does what you'd expect, adds a get and set member function and updates
all users to use the new functions instead of the previous wrapper
macros.

This reverts commit 82a1fd3a4935fe665cf08bc6820942c4a091184c.
It was pointed out:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-February/175750.html
that commit 82a1fd3a4935 caused GDB to have an unconditional
dependency on ELF specific parts of BFD. What this means is that if
GDB and BFD are built for a non-elf target then there will be
undefined symbol references within GDB.
The right solution isn't immediately obvious. So rather than rush a
fix in I'm reverting this commit for now, and will bring it back once
I have a good solution.

With a certain Ada program, ada-lang.c:coerce_unspec_val_to_type can
cause a crash. This function may copy a value, and in the particular
case in the crash, the new value's type is smaller than the original
type. This causes coerce_unspec_val_to_type to create a lazy value --
but the original value is also not_lval, so later, when the value is
un-lazied, gdb asserts.
As with the previous patch, we believe there is a compiler bug here,
but it is difficult to reproduce, so we're not completely certain.
In the particular case we saw, the original value has record type, and
the record holds some variable-length arrays. This leads to the
type's length being 0. At the same time, the value is optimized out.
This patch changes coerce_unspec_val_to_type to handle an
optimized-out value correctly.
It also slightly restructures this code to avoid a crash should a
not_lval value wind up here. This is a purely defensive change.
This change also made it clear that value_contents_copy_raw can now be
made static, so that is also done.

resolve_dynamic_struct says:
gdb_assert (type->num_fields () > 0);
However, a certain Ada program has a structure with no fields but with
a dynamic size, causing this assertion to fire.
It is difficult to be certain, but we think this is a compiler bug.
However, in the meantime this assertion does not seem to be checking
any kind of internal consistency; so this patch removes it.

When stepping over thread-lock related codes (in uClibc), the inferior process
gets stuck and never manages to enter the critical section:
------8<-------
1 size_t fwrite(const void * __restrict ptr, size_t size,
2 size_t nmemb, register FILE * __restrict stream)
3 {
4 size_t retval;
5 __STDIO_AUTO_THREADLOCK_VAR;
6
7 > __STDIO_AUTO_THREADLOCK(stream);
8
9 retval = fwrite_unlocked(ptr, size, nmemb, stream);
10
11 __STDIO_AUTO_THREADUNLOCK(stream);
12
13 return retval;
14 }
------>8-------
Here, we are at line 7. Using the "next" command leads no where.
However, setting a breakpoint on line 9 and issuing "continue" works.
Looking at the assembly instructions reveals that we're dealing with the
critical section entry code [1] that should never be interrupted, in this
case by the debugger's implicit breakpoints:
------8<-------
...
1 add_s r0,r13,0x38
2 mov_s r3,1
3 llock r2,[r0] <-.
4 brne.nt r2,0,14 --. |
5 scond r3,[r0] | |
6 bne -10 --|--'
7 brne_s r2,0,84 <-'
...
------>8-------
Lines 3 until 5 (inclusive) are supposed to be executed atomically.
Therefore, GDB should never (implicitly) insert a breakpoint on lines
4 and 5, else the program will try to acquire the lock again by jumping
back to line 3 and gets stuck in an infinite loop.
The solution is to make GDB aware of these patterns so it inserts
breakpoints after the sequence -- line 6 in this example.

"llock" (Load Locked) loads the 32-bit word pointed by the source
operand. If the load is completed without any interruption or
exception, the physical address is remembered, in Lock Physical Address
(LPA), and the Lock Flag (LF) is set to 1. LF is a non-architecturally
visible flag and is cleared whenever an interrupt or exception takes
place. LF is also cleared (atomically) whenever another process writes
to the LPA.
"scond" (Store Conditional) will write to the destination address if
and only if the LF is set to 1. When finished, with or without a write,
it atomically copies the LF value to ZF (Zero Flag).
These two instructions together provide the mechanism for entering a
critical section. The code snippet above comes from uClibc:
-----------------------
v3 (after Tom's remarks[2]):
handle_atomic_sequence()
- no need to initialize the std::vector with "{}"
- fix typo in comments: "conditial" -> "conditional"
- add braces to the body of "if" condition because of the comment line
arc_linux_software_single_step()
- make the performance slightly more efficient by moving a few
variables after the likely "return" point.
v2 (after Simon's remarks[3]):
- handle_atomic_sequence() gets a copy of an instruction instead of
a reference.
- handle_atomic_sequence() asserts if the given instruction is an llock.

If the user implements a TUI window in Python, and this window
responds to GDB events and then redraws its window contents then there
is currently an edge case which can lead to problems.
The Python API documentation suggests that calling methods like erase
or write on a TUI window (from Python code) will raise an exception if
the window is not valid.
And the description for is_valid says:
This method returns True when this window is valid. When the user
changes the TUI layout, windows no longer visible in the new layout
will be destroyed. At this point, the gdb.TuiWindow will no longer
be valid, and methods (and attributes) other than is_valid will
throw an exception.
From this I, as a user, would expect that if I did 'tui disable' to
switch back to CLI mode, then the window would no longer be valid.
However, this is not the case.
When the TUI is disabled the windows in the TUI are not deleted, they
are simply hidden. As such, currently, the is_valid method continues
to return true.
This means that if the users Python code does something like:
def event_handler (e):
global tui_window_object
if tui_window_object->is_valid ():
tui_window_object->erase ()
tui_window_object->write ("Hello World")
gdb.events.stop.connect (event_handler)
Then when a stop event arrives GDB will try to draw the TUI window,
even when the TUI is disabled.
This exposes two bugs. First, is_valid should be returning false in
this case, second, if the user forgot to add the is_valid call, then I
believe the erase and write calls should be throwing an
exception (when the TUI is disabled).
The solution to both of these issues is I think bound together, as it
depends on having a working 'is_valid' check.
There's a rogue assert added into tui-layout.c as part of this
commit. While working on this commit I managed to break GDB such that
TUI_CMD_WIN was nullptr, this was causing GDB to abort. I'm leaving
the assert in as it might help people catch issues in the future.

This commit was inspired by this mailing list patch:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-January/174713.html
Currently, calling tui_layout_window::apply will add the window from
the layout object to the global tui_windows list.
Unfortunately, when the user runs the 'winheight' command, this calls
tui_adjust_window_height, which calls the tui_layout_base::adjust_size
function, which can then call tui_layout_base::apply. The consequence
of this is that when the user does 'winheight' duplicate copies of a
window can be added to the global tui_windows list.
The original patch fixed this by changing the apply function to only
update the global list some of the time.
This patch takes a different approach. The apply function no longer
updates the global tui_windows list. Instead a new virtual function
is added to tui_layout_base which is used to gather all the currently
applied windows into a vector. Finally tui_apply_current_layout is
updated to make use of this new function to update the tui_windows
list.
The benefits I see in this approach are, (a) the apply function now no
longer touches global state, this solves the immediate problem,
and (b) now that tui_windows is updated directly in the function
tui_apply_current_layout, we can drop the saved_tui_windows global.

* tui-layout.c (saved_tui_windows): Delete.
