2015-03-07Split TRY_CATCH into TRY + CATCHPedro Alves1-16/+22
This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from this: ~~~ volatile gdb_exception ex; TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } if (ex.reason < 0) { } ~~~ to this: ~~~ TRY { } CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } END_CATCH ~~~ Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and declaring the caught exception in the catch block. This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode (using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step. TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY and the CATCH blocks, like: TRY { } // some code here. CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR) { } END_CATCH Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch. By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more directly to C++'s catch blocks. The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB still builds at each incremental step. END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons: First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere. Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for block, like: #define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \ for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \ exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \ EXCEPTION = exception_none) would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90, which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code. Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will be done in END_CATCH. After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist. IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering C++. gdb/ChangeLog. 2015-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * common/common-exceptions.c (struct catcher) <exception>: No longer a pointer to volatile exception.

2015-02-10Finish constification of varobj interfaceSimon Marchi1-11/+11
This completes the constification of the struct varobj pointers in the lang_varobj_ops interface partially done in b09e2c591f9221d865bfe8425990a6bf9fab24e3.

2015-01-30Constify some parameters in the varobj codeSimon Marchi1-11/+12
To make it clear that some functions should not modify the variable object, this patch adds the const qualifier where it makes sense to some struct varobj * parameters. Most getters should take a const pointer to guarantee they don't modify the object. Unfortunately, I couldn't add it to some callbacks (such as name_of_child). In the C implementation, they call c_describe_child, which calls varobj_get_path_expr. varobj_get_path_expr needs to modify the object in order to cache the computed value. It therefore can't take a const pointer, and it affects the whole call chain. I suppose that's where you would use a "mutable" in C++. I did that to make sure there was no other cases like the one fixed in the previous patch. I don't think it can hurt. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-varobj.c (ada_number_of_children): Constify struct varobj * parameter. (ada_name_of_variable): Same. (ada_path_expr_of_child): Same.

2015-01-30Set varobj->path_expr in varobj_get_path_exprSimon Marchi1-4/+8
It seems like different languages are doing this differently (e.g. C and Ada). For C, var->path_expr is set inside c_path_expr_of_child. The next time the value is requested, is it therefore not recomputed. Ada does not set this field, but just returns the value. Since the field is never set, the value is recomputed every time it is requested. This patch makes it so that path_expr_of_child's only job is to compute the path expression, not save/cache the value. The field is set by the varobj common code. gdb/ChangeLog: * varobj.c (varobj_get_path_expr): Set var->path_expr. * c-varobj.c (c_path_expr_of_child): Set local var instead of child->path_expr. (cplus_path_expr_of_child): Same.

2014-07-09Improve MI -var-info-path-expression for nested struct/union case.Andrew Burgess1-2/+54
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-05/msg00383.html The MI command -var-info-path-expression currently does not handle non-anonymous structs / unions nested within other structs / unions, it will skip parts of the expression. Consider this example: ## START EXAMPLE ## $ cat ex.c #include <string.h> int main () { struct s1 { int a; }; struct ss { struct s1 x; }; struct ss an_ss; memset (&an_ss, 0, sizeof (an_ss)); return 0; } $ gcc -g -o ex.x ex.c $ gdb ex.x (gdb) break 18 Breakpoint 1 at 0x80483ba: file ex.c, line 18. (gdb) run Starting program: /home/user/ex.x Breakpoint 1, main () at ex.c:18 18 return 0; (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-create an_ss * an_ss" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss" ^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x",exp="x",numchild="1",type="struct s1",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x" ^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x.a",exp="a",numchild="0",type="int",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x.a" ^done,numchild="0",has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-info-path-expression an_ss.x.a" ^done,path_expr="(an_ss).a" (gdb) print (an_ss).a There is no member named a. ## END EXAMPLE ## Notice that the path expression returned is wrong, and as a result the print command fails. This patch adds a new method to the varobj_ops structure called is_path_expr_parent, to allow language specific control over finding the parent varobj, the current logic becomes the C/C++ version and is extended to handle the nested cases. No other language currently uses this code, so all other languages just get a default method. With this patch, the above example now finishes like this: ## START EXAMPLE ## $ gdb ex.x (gdb) break 18 Breakpoint 1 at 0x80483ba: file ex.c, line 18. (gdb) run Starting program: /home/user/ex.x Breakpoint 1, main () at ex.c:18 18 return 0; (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss" ^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x",exp="x",numchild="1",type="struct s1",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x" ^done,numchild="1",children=[child={name="an_ss.x.a",exp="a",numchild="0",type="int",thread-id="1"}],has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-list-children an_ss.x.a" ^done,numchild="0",has_more="0" (gdb) interpreter-exec mi "-var-info-path-expression an_ss.x.a" ^done,path_expr="((an_ss).x).a" (gdb) print ((an_ss).x).a $1 = 0 ## END EXAMPLE ## Notice that the path expression is now correct, and the print is a success. gdb/ChangeLog: * ada-varobj.c (ada_varobj_ops): Fill in is_path_expr_parent field. * c-varobj.c (c_is_path_expr_parent): New function, moved core from varobj.c, with additional checks.
