2016-08-10Support setting thread names (MS-Windows)Руслан Ижбулатов1-0/+6
This is done by catching an exception number 0x406d1388 (it has no documented name, though MSDN dubs it "MS_VC_EXCEPTION" in one code example), which is thrown by the program. The exception record contains an ID of a thread and a name to give it. This requires rolling back some changes in handle_exception(), which now again returns more than two distinct values. The new HANDLE_EXCEPTION_IGNORED value means that gdb should just continue, without returning the thread ID up the stack (which would result in further handling of the exception, which is not what we want). gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-08-10 Руслан Ижбулатов <lrn1986@gmail.com> Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * windows-nat.c (MS_VC_EXCEPTION): New define.

2016-07-25btrace: Resume recording after disconnect.Tim Wiederhake1-0/+3
This patch allows gdbserver to continue recording after disconnect. On reconnect, the recorded data is accessible to gdb as if no disconnect happened. A possible application for this feature is remotely examine bugs that occur at irregular intervals, where maintaining a gdb connection is inconvenient.

2016-06-06Add method/format information to =record-startedSimon Marchi1-0/+5
Eclipse CDT now supports enabling execution recording using two methods (full and btrace) and both formats for btrace (bts and pt). In the event that recording is enabled behind the back of the GUI (by the user on the command line, or a script), we need to know which method/format are being used, so it can be correctly reflected in the interface. This patch adds this information to the =record-started async record. Before: =record-started,thread-group="i1" After: =record-started,thread-group="i1",method="btrace",format="bts" =record-started,thread-group="i1",method="btrace",format="pt" =record-started,thread-group="i1",method="full" The "format" field is only present when the current method supports multiple formats (only the btrace method as of now). gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Mention the new fields in =record-started. * common/btrace-common.h (btrace_format_short_string): New function declaration. * common/btrace-common.c (btrace_format_short_string): New function. * mi/mi-interp.c (mi_record_changed): Output method and format fields in the =record-started record. * record-btrace.c (record_btrace_open): Adapt record_changed notification. * record-full.c (record_full_open): Likewise. * record.c (cmd_record_stop): Likewise. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Async Records): Document method and format fields in =record-started. * observer.texi (record_changed): Add method and format parameters. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.mi/mi-record-changed.exp: Adjust =record-started output matching.

2016-05-17Add self-test framework to gdbTom Tromey1-0/+3
I wanted to unit test the Rust lexer, so I added a simple unit testing command to gdb. The intent is that self tests will only be compiled into gdb in development mode. In release mode they simply won't exist. So, this exposes $development to C code as GDB_SELF_TEST. In development mode, test functions are registered with the self test module. A test function is just a function that does some checks, and throws an exception on failure. Then this adds a new "maint selftest" command which invokes the test functions, and a new dejagnu test case that invokes it. 2016-05-17 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * NEWS: Add "maint selftest" entry. * selftest.h: New file. * selftest.c: New file. * maint.c: Include selftest.h.

2016-02-18Intel MPX bound violation handlingWalfred Tedeschi1-0/+14
With Intel Memory Protection Extensions it was introduced the concept of boundary violation. A boundary violations is presented to the inferior as a segmentation fault having SIGCODE 3. This patch adds a handler for a boundary violation extending the information displayed when a bound violation is presented to the inferior. In the stop mode case the debugger will also display the kind of violation: "upper" or "lower", bounds and the address accessed. On no stop mode the information will still remain unchanged. Additional information about bound violations are not meaningful in that case user does not know the line in which violation occurred as well. When the segmentation fault handler is stop mode the out puts will be changed as exemplified below. The usual output of a segfault is: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault 0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050, c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68 68 value = *(p + len); In case it is a bound violation it will be presented as: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault Upper bound violation while accessing address 0x7fffffffc3b3 Bounds: [lower = 0x7fffffffc390, upper = 0x7fffffffc3a3] 0x0000000000400d7c in upper (p=0x603010, a=0x603030, b=0x603050, c=0x603070, d=0x603090, len=7) at i386-mpx-sigsegv.c:68 68 value = *(p + len); In mi mode the output of a segfault is: *stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV", signal-meaning="Segmentation fault", frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c", func="upper",args=[{name="p", value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"} ,{name="b",value="0x603050"}, {name="c",value="0x603070"}, {name="d",value="0x603090"},{name="len",value="7"}], file="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",fullname="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",line="68"}, thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="6" in the case of a bound violation: *stopped,reason="signal-received",signal-name="SIGSEGV", signal-meaning="Segmentation fault", sigcode-meaning="Upper bound violation", lower-bound="0x603010",upper-bound="0x603023",bound-access="0x60302f", frame={addr="0x0000000000400d7c",func="upper",args=[{name="p", value="0x603010"},{name="a",value="0x603030"},{name="b",value="0x603050"}, {name="c",value="0x603070"},{name="d",value="0x603090"}, {name="len",value="7"}],file="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c", fullname="i386-mpx-sigsegv.c",line="68"},thread-id="1", stopped-threads="all",core="6" 2016-02-18 Walfred Tedeschi <walfred.tedeschi@intel.com> gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Add entry for bound violation. * amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_init_abi_common): Add handler for segmentation fault. * gdbarch.sh (handle_segmentation_fault): New. * gdbarch.c: Regenerate. * gdbarch.h: Regenerate. * i386-linux-tdep.c (i386_linux_handle_segmentation_fault): New.

2016-02-01gdb: New set/show max-value-size command.Andrew Burgess1-0/+6
For languages with dynamic types, an incorrect program, or uninitialised variables within a program, could result in an incorrect, overly large type being associated with a value. Currently, attempting to print such a variable will result in gdb trying to allocate an overly large buffer. If this large memory allocation fails then the result can be gdb either terminating, or (due to memory contention) becoming unresponsive for the user. A new user visible variable in gdb helps guard against such problems, two new commands are available: set max-value-size show max-value-size The 'max-value-size' is the maximum size of memory in bytes that gdb will allocate for the contents of a value. Any attempt to allocate a value with a size greater than this will result in an error. The initial default for this limit is set at 64k, this is based on a similar limit that exists within the ada specific code. It is possible for the user to set max-value-size to unlimited, in which case the old behaviour is restored. gdb/ChangeLog: * value.c (max_value_size): New variable. (MIN_VALUE_FOR_MAX_VALUE_SIZE): New define. (show_max_value_size): New function. (check_type_length_before_alloc): New function. (allocate_value_contents): Call check_type_length_before_alloc.

2016-01-19Add support for LWP-based threads on FreeBSD.John Baldwin1-0/+6
Older versions of FreeBSD supported userland threading via a pure user-space threading library (N threads scheduled on 1 process) and a N:M model (N threads scheduled on M LWPs). However, modern FreeBSD versions only support a M:M threading model where each user thread is backed by a dedicated LWP. This thread target only supports this threading model. It also uses ptrace to query and alter LWP state directly rather than using libthread_db to simplify the implementation. FreeBSD recently gained support for reporting LWP events (birth and death of LWPs). GDB will use LWP events when present. For older systems it fetches the list of LWPs in the to_update_thread_list target op to update the list of threads on each stop. This target supports scheduler locking by using ptrace to suspend individual LWPs as necessary before resuming a process. gdb/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Check for support for LWP names on FreeBSD. * fbsd-nat.c [PT_LWPINFO] New variable debug_fbsd_lwp.

2016-01-18Fix PR threads/19422 - show which thread caused stopPedro Alves1-0/+7
This commit changes GDB like this: - Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt. + Thread 1 "main" received signal SIGINT, Interrupt. - Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87. + Thread 3 "bar" hit Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87. ... once the program goes multi-threaded. Until GDB sees a second thread spawn, the output is still the same as before, per the discussion back in 2012: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2012-11/msg00010.html This helps non-stop mode, where you can't easily tell which thread hit a breakpoint or received a signal: (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame * 1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1740 (LWP 19362) "main" (running) 2 Thread 0x7ffff7fc0700 (LWP 19366) "foo" (running) 3 Thread 0x7ffff77bf700 (LWP 19367) "bar" (running) (gdb) Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1. 0x0000003616a09237 in pthread_join (threadid=140737353877248, thread_return=0x7fffffffd5b8) at pthread_join.c:92 92 lll_wait_tid (pd->tid); (gdb) b threads.c:87 Breakpoint 1 at 0x40087a: file threads.c, line 87. (gdb) Breakpoint 1, thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:87 87 usleep (1); /* Loop increment. */ The best the user can do is run "info threads" and try to figure things out. It actually also affects all-stop mode, in case of "handle SIG print nostop": ... Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1. Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1. Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1. Program received signal SIGUSR1, User defined signal 1. ... The above doesn't give any clue that these were different threads getting the SIGUSR1 signal. I initially thought of lowercasing "breakpoint" in "Thread 3 hit Breakpoint 1" but then after trying it I realized that leaving "Breakpoint" uppercase helps the eye quickly find the relevant information. It's also easier to implement not showing anything about threads until the program goes multi-threaded this way. Here's a larger example session in non-stop mode: (gdb) c -a& Continuing.

2016-01-13Per-inferior/Inferior-qualified thread IDsPedro Alves1-0/+34
This commit changes GDB to track thread numbers per-inferior. Then, if you're debugging multiple inferiors, GDB displays "inferior-num.thread-num" instead of just "thread-num" whenever it needs to display a thread: (gdb) info inferiors Num Description Executable 1 process 6022 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads * 2 process 6037 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame 1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6022) "threads" (running) 1.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6028) "threads" (running) 1.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6032) "threads" (running) 2.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1700 (LWP 6037) "threads" (running) 2.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6038) "threads" (running) * 2.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6039) "threads" (running) (gdb) ... (gdb) thread 1.1 [Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 8155))] (gdb) ... etc. You can still use "thread NUM", in which case GDB infers you're referring to thread NUM of the current inferior. The $_thread convenience var and Python's InferiorThread.num attribute are remapped to the new per-inferior thread number. It's a backward compatibility break, but since it only matters when debugging multiple inferiors, I think it's worth doing. Because MI thread IDs need to be a single integer, we keep giving threads a global identifier, _in addition_ to the per-inferior number, and make MI always refer to the global thread IDs. IOW, nothing changes from a MI frontend's perspective. Similarly, since Python's Breakpoint.thread and Guile's breakpoint-thread/set-breakpoint-thread breakpoint methods need to work with integers, those are adjusted to work with global thread IDs too. Follow up patches will provide convenient means to access threads' global IDs. To avoid potencially confusing users (which also avoids updating much of the testsuite), if there's only one inferior and its ID is "1", IOW, the user hasn't done anything multi-process/inferior related, then the "INF." part of thread IDs is not shown.

2015-12-14Target remote mode fork and exec event documentationDon Breazeal1-0/+7
This patch implements documentation updates for target remote mode fork and exec events. A summary of the rationale for the changes made here: * Connecting to a remote target -- explain that the two protocols exist. * Connecting in target remote mode -- explain invoking gdbserver for target remote mode, and move remote-specific text from original "Connecting to a remote target" section. * Connecting in target extended-remote mode -- promote this section from "Using the gdbserver Program | Running gdbserver | Multi-Process Mode for gdbserver". Put it next to the target remote mode section. * Host and target files -- collect paragraphs dealing with how to locate symbol files from original sections "Connecting to a remote target" and "Using the gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver". * Steps for connecting to a remote target -- used to be "Using the gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver" * Remote connection commands -- used to be the bulk of "Connecting to a remote target". Added "target extended-remote" commands and information. gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Announce fork and exec event support for target remote. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Forks): Correct Linux kernel version where fork and exec events are supported, add notes about support of these events in target remote mode. (Connecting): Reorganize and clarify distinctions between target remote, extended-remote, and multiprocess. Reorganize related text from separate sections into new sections. (Server): Note effects of target extended-remote mode. Delete section on Multi-Process Mode for gdbserver. Move some text to "Connecting" node.

2015-11-30Implement TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED in the remote protocolPedro Alves1-0/+6
Testing with "maint set target-non-stop on" causes regressions in tests that rely on TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, which isn't modelled on the RSP. In real all-stop, gdbserver detects the situation and reporst error to GDB, and so the tests (e.g., gdb.threads/no-unwaited-for-left.exp) at fail quickly. But with "maint set target-non-stop on", GDB instead hangs forever waiting for a stop reply that never comes, and so the tests take longer to time out. This adds a new "N" stop reply packet that maps 1-1 to TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-11-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR 14618 * NEWS (New remote packets): Mention the N stop reply. * remote.c (remote_protocol_features): Add "no-resumed" entry.

2015-11-30Remote thread create/exit eventsPedro Alves1-0/+18
When testing with "maint set target-non-stop on", a few threading-related tests expose an issue that requires new RSP packets. Say there are 3 threads running, 1-3. If GDB tries to stop thread 1, 2 and 3, and then waits for their stops, but meanwhile say, thread 2 exits, GDB hangs forever waiting for a stop for thread 2 that won't ever happen. This patch fixes the issue by adding support for thread exit events to the protocol. However, we don't want these always enabled, as they're useless most of the time, and would slow down remote debugging. So I made it so that GDB can enable/disable them, and then made gdb do that around the cases that need it, which currently is only infrun.c:stop_all_threads. In turn, if we have thread exit events, then the extra "thread x exited" traffic slows down attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp enough that gdb has trouble keeping up with new threads that are spawned while gdb tries to stop existing ones. To fix that I added support for the counterpart thread created events too. Enabling those when we try to stop threads ensures that new threads never get a chance to themselves start new threads, killing the race. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: 2015-11-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.texinfo (Remote Configuration): List "set/show remote thread-events" command in configuration table.
