Most files including gdbcmd.h currently rely on it to access things
actually declared in cli/cli-cmds.h (setlist, showlist, etc). To make
things easy, replace all includes of gdbcmd.h with includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h. This might lead to some unused includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h, but it's harmless, and much faster than going through
the 170 or so files by hand.

In Ada, sometimes the compiler must emit array bounds by referencing
an artificial variable that's created for this purpose. However, with
optimization enabled, these variables can be optimized away.
Currently this can result in displays like:
(gdb) print mumble
$1 = (warning: unable to get bounds of array, assuming null array
)
This patch changes this to report that the array is optimized-out,
instead, which is closer to the truth, and more generally useful. For
example, Python pretty-printers can now recognize this situation.
In order to accomplish this, I introduced a new PROP_OPTIMIZED_OUT
enumerator and changed one place to use it. Reusing the "unknown"
state wouldn't work properly, because in C it is normal for array
bounds to be unknown.

This changes lookup_symbol and associated APIs to accept
domain_search_flags rather than a domain_enum.
Note that this introduces some new constants to Python and Guile. I
chose to break out the documentation patch for this, because the
internals here do not change until a later patch, and it seemed
simpler to patch the docs just once, rather than twice.

This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.

Since GDB now requires C++17, we don't need the internally maintained
gdb::optional implementation. This patch does the following replacing:
- gdb::optional -> std::optional
- gdb::in_place -> std::in_place
- #include "gdbsupport/gdb_optional.h" -> #include <optional>
This change has mostly been done automatically. One exception is
gdbsupport/thread-pool.* which did not use the gdb:: prefix as it
already lives in the gdb namespace.

them is a spot that didn't consider the possibility that value_mark
can return NULL. I tend to doubt this can be seen in this context,

History Of This Patch
=====================
This commit aims to address PR gdb/21699. There have now been a
couple of attempts to fix this issue. Simon originally posted two
patches back in 2021:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180894.html
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180896.html
Before Pedro then posted a version of his own:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180970.html
After this the conversation halted. Then in 2023 I (Andrew) also took
a look at this bug and posted two versions:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-April/198570.html
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-April/198680.html
The approach taken in my first patch was pretty similar to what Simon
originally posted back in 2021. My second attempt was only a slight
variation on the first.
Pedro then pointed out his older patch, and so we arrive at this
patch. The GDB changes here are mostly Pedro's work, but updated by
me (Andrew), any mistakes are mine.
The tests here are a combinations of everyone's work, and the commit
message is new, but copies bits from everyone's earlier work.
Problem Description
===================
Bug PR gdb/21699 makes the observation that using $_as_string with
GDB's printf can cause GDB to print unexpected data from the
inferior. The reproducer is pretty simple:
#include <stddef.h>
static char arena[100];
/* Override malloc() so value_coerce_to_target() gets a known
pointer, and we know we"ll see an error if $_as_string() gives
a string that isn't null terminated. */
void
*malloc (size_t size)
{
memset (arena, 'x', sizeof (arena));
if (size > sizeof (arena))
return NULL;
return arena;
}
int
main ()
{
return 0;
}
And then in a GDB session:
$ gdb -q test
Reading symbols from /tmp/test...
(gdb) start
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4004c8: file test.c, line 17.
Starting program: /tmp/test
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:17
17 return 0;
(gdb) printf "%s\n", $_as_string("hello")
"hello"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
(gdb) quit
The problem above is caused by how value_cstring is used within
py-value.c, but once we understand the issue then it turns out that
value_cstring is used in an unexpected way in many places within GDB.
Within py-value.c we have a null-terminated C-style string. We then
pass a pointer to this string, along with the length of this
string (so not including the null-character) to value_cstring.
In value_cstring GDB allocates an array value of the given character
type, and copies in requested number of characters. However
value_cstring does not add a null-character of its own. This means
that the value created by calling value_cstring is only
null-terminated if the null-character is included in the passed in
length. In py-value.c this is not the case, and indeed, in most uses
of value_cstring, this is not the case.
When GDB tries to print one of these strings the value contents are
pushed to the inferior, and then read back as a C-style string, that
is, GDB reads inferior memory until it finds a null-terminator. For
the py-value.c case, no null-terminator is pushed into the inferior,
so GDB will continue reading inferior memory until a null-terminator
is found, with unpredictable results.
Patch Description
=================
The first thing this patch does is better define what the arguments
for the two function value_cstring and value_string should represent.
The comments in the header file are updated to describe whether the
length argument should, or should not, include a null-character.
Also, the data argument is changed to type gdb_byte. The functions as
they currently exist will handle wide-characters, in which case more
than one 'char' would be needed for each character. As such using
gdb_byte seems to make more sense.
To avoid adding casts throughout GDB, I've also added an overload that
still takes a 'char *', but asserts that the character type being used
is of size '1'.
The value_cstring function is now responsible for adding a null
character at the end of the string value it creates.
However, once we start looking at how value_cstring is used, we
realise there's another, related, problem. Not every language's
strings are null terminated. Fortran and Ada strings, for example,
are just an array of characters, GDB already has the function
value_string which can be used to create such values.
Consider this example using current GDB:
(gdb) set language ada
(gdb) p $_gdb_setting("arch")
$1 = (97, 117, 116, 111)
(gdb) ptype $
type = array (1 .. 4) of char
(gdb) p $_gdb_maint_setting("test-settings string")
$2 = (0)
(gdb) ptype $
type = array (1 .. 1) of char
This shows two problems, first, the $_gdb_setting and
$_gdb_maint_setting functions are calling value_cstring using the
builtin_char character, rather than a language appropriate type. In
the first call, the 'arch' case, the value_cstring call doesn't
include the null character, so the returned array only contains the
expected characters. But, in the $_gdb_maint_setting example we do
end up including the null-character, even though this is not expected
for Ada strings.
This commit adds a new language method language_defn::value_string,
this function takes a pointer and length and creates a language
appropriate value that represents the string. For C, C++, etc this
will be a null-terminated string (by calling value_cstring), and for
Fortran and Ada this can be a bounded array of characters with no null
terminator. Additionally, this new language_defn::value_string
function is responsible for selecting a language appropriate character
type.
After this commit the only calls to value_cstring are from the C
expression evaluator and from the default language_defn::value_string.
And the only calls to value_string are from Fortan, Ada, and ObjectC
related code.

gdbarch implements its own registry-like approach. This patch changes
it to instead use registry.h. It's a rather large patch but largely
uninteresting -- it's mostly a straightforward conversion from the old
approach to the new one.
The main benefit of this change is that it introduces type safety to
the gdbarch registry. It also removes a bunch of code.
One possible drawback is that, previously, the gdbarch registry
differentiated between pre- and post-initialization setup. This
doesn't seem very important to me, though.

The operators FLOOR, CEILING, CMPLX, LBOUND, UBOUND, and SIZE accept
(some only with Fortran 2003) the optional parameter KIND. This
parameter determines the kind of the associated return value. So far,
implementation of this kind parameter has been missing in GDB.
Additionally, the one argument overload for the CMPLX intrinsic function
was not yet available.
This patch adds overloads for all above mentioned functions to the
Fortran intrinsics handling in GDB.
It re-writes the intrinsic function handling section to use the helper
methods wrap_unop_intrinsic/wrap_binop_intrinsic/wrap_triop_intrinsic.
These methods define the action taken when a Fortran intrinsic function
is called with a certain amount of arguments (1/2/3). The helper methods
fortran_wrap2_kind and fortran_wrap3_kind have been added as equivalents
to the existing wrap and wrap2 methods.
After adding more overloads to the intrinsics handling, some of the
operation names were no longer accurate. E.g. UNOP_FORTRAN_CEILING
has been renamed to FORTRAN_CEILING as it is no longer a purely unary
intrinsic function. This patch also introduces intrinsic functions with
one, two, or three arguments to the Fortran parser and the
UNOP_OR_BINOP_OR_TERNOP_INTRINSIC token has been added.

Currently, when asking GDB to print the type of a Fortran default type
such as INTEGER or REAL, GDB will return the default name of that type,
e.g. "integer"/"real":
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
(gdb) ptype real
type = real
For LOGICAL and COMPLEX it would return the actual underlying types
(gdb) ptype logical
type = logical*4
(gdb) ptype complex
type = complex*4
Similarly, GDB would print the default integer type for the underlying
default type:
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer
(gdb) ptype real*4
type = real
(gdb) ptype logical
type = logical*4
(gdb) ptype complex*4
type = complex*4
This is inconsistent and a bit confusing. Both options somehow indicate
what the internal underlying type for the default type is - but I think
the logical/complex version is a bit clearer.
Consider again:
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
This indicates to a user that the type of "integer" is Fortran's default
integer type. Without examining "ptype integer*4" I would expect, that
any variable declared integer in the actual code would also fit into a
GDB integer. But, since we cannot adapt out internal types to the
compiler flags used at compile time of a debugged binary, this might be
wrong. Consider debugging Fortran code compiled with GNU and e.g. the
"-fdefault-integer-8" flag. In this case the gfortran default integer
would be integer*8 while GDB internally still would use a builtin_integer,
so an integer of the size of an integer*4 type. On the other hand having
GDB print
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer*4
makes this clearer. I would still be tempted to fit a variable declared
integer in the code into a GDB integer - but at least ptype would
directly tell me what is going on. Note, that when debugging a binary
compiled with "-fdefault-integer-8" a user will always see the actual
underlying type of any variable declared "integer" in the Fortran code.
So having the code
program test
integer :: a = 5
print *, a ! breakpt
end program test
will, when breaking at breakpt print
(gdb) ptype var
type = integer(kind=4)
or
(gdb) ptype var
type = integer(kind=8)
depending on the compiler flag.
This patch changes the outputs for the REAL and INTEGER default types to
actually print the internally used type over the default type name.
The new behavior for the above examples is:
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer*4
Existing testcases have been adapted to reflect the new behavior.

The currently implemented intrinsic type handling for Fortran missed some
tokens and their parsing. While still not all Fortran type kinds are
implemented this patch at least makes the currently handled types
consistent. As an example for what this patch does, consider the
intrinsic type INTEGER. GDB implemented the handling of the
keywords "integer" and "integer_2" but missed "integer_4" and "integer_8"
even though their corresponding internal types were already available as
the Fortran builtin types builtin_integer and builtin_integer_s8.
Similar problems applied to LOGICAL, REAL, and COMPLEX. This patch adds
all missing tokens and their parsing. Whenever a section containing the
type handling was touched, it also was reordered to be in a more easy to
grasp order. All INTEGER/REAL/LOGICAL/COMPLEX types were grouped
together and ordered ascending in their size making a missing one more
easy to spot.
Before this change GDB would print the following when tyring to use the
INTEGER keywords:
(gdb) set language fortran
(gdb) ptype integer*1
unsupported kind 1 for type integer
(gdb) ptype integer_1
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer*2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer_2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer
(gdb) ptype integer_4
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer*8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer_8
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
With this patch all keywords are available and the GDB prints:
(gdb) set language fortran
(gdb) ptype integer*1
type = integer*1
(gdb) ptype integer_1
type = integer*1
(gdb) ptype integer*2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer_2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer_4
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer*8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer_8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
The described changes have been applied to INTEGER, REAL, COMPLEX,
and LOGICAL. Existing testcases have been adapted to reflect the
new behavior. Tests for formerly missing types have been added.

According to the Fortran standard, logical is of the size of a
'single numeric storage unit' (just like real and integer). For
gfortran, flang and ifx/ifort this storage unit (or the default
logical type) is of size kind 4, actually occupying 4 bytes of
storage, and so the default type for logical expressions in
Fortran should probably also be Logical*4 and not Logical*2. I
adapted GDB's behavior to be in line with
gfortran/ifort/ifx/flang.

Add a few newlines after the type definitions and remove some
unnecessary linebreaks.

Before this patch things like
(gdb) ptype complex*8
complex*16
(gdb) ptype complex*4
complex*8
were possible in GDB, which seems confusing for a user. The reason
is a mixup in the implementation of the Fortran COMPLEX type. In
Fortran the "*X" after a type would normally (I don't think this
is language required) specify the type's size in memory. For the
COMPLEX type the kind parameters usually (at least for GNU, Intel, Flang)
specify not the size of the whole type but the size of the individual
two REALs used to form the COMPLEX. Thus, a COMPLEX*4 will usually
consist of two REAL*4s. Internally this type was represented by a
builtin_complex_s8 - but here I think the s8 actually meant the raw
size of the type. This is confusing and I renamed the types (e.g.
builting_complex_s8 became builtin_complex_s4 according to its most
common useage) and their printed names to their language equivalent.
Additionally, I added the default COMPLEX type "COMPLEX" being the same
as a COMPLEX*4 (as is normally the case) and removed the latter. I added
a few tests for this new behavior as well.
The new behavior is
(gdb) ptype complex*8
complex*8
(gdb) ptype complex*4
complex*4

Add `set print array-indexes' handling for Fortran arrays. Currently
the setting is ignored and indices are never shown.
Keep track of the most recent index handled so that any outstanding
repeated elements printed when the limit set by `set print elements' is
hit have the correct index shown.
Output now looks like:
(gdb) set print array-indexes on
(gdb) print array_1d
$1 = ((-2) = 1, (-1) = 1, (0) = 1, (1) = 1, (2) = 1)
(gdb) set print repeats 4
(gdb) set print elements 12
(gdb) print array_2d
$2 = ((-2) = ((-2) = 2, <repeats 5 times>) (-1) = ((-2) = 2, <repeats 5 times>) (0) = ((-2) = 2, (-1) = 2, ...) ...)
(gdb)
for a 5-element vector and a 5 by 5 array filled with the value of 2.

Implement `set print repeats' handling for Fortran arrays. Currently
the setting is ignored and always treated as if no limit was set.
Unlike the generic array walker implemented decades ago the Fortran one
is a proper C++ class. Rather than trying to mimic the old walker then,
which turned out a bit of a challenge where interacting with the `set
print elements' setting, write it entirely from scratch, by adding an
extra specialization handler method for processing dimensions other than
the innermost one and letting the specialization class call the `walk_1'
method from the handler as it sees fit. This way repeats can be tracked
and the next inner dimension recursed into as a need arises only, or
unconditionally in the base class.
Keep track of the dimension number being handled in the class rather as
a parameter to the walker so that it does not have to be passed across
by the specialization class.
Use per-dimension element count tracking, needed to terminate processing
early when the limit set by `set print elements' is hit. This requires
extra care too where the limit triggers exactly where another element
that is a subarray begins. In that case rather than recursing we need
to terminate processing or lone `(...)' would be printed. Additionally
if the skipped element is the last one in the current dimension we need
to print `...' by hand, because `continue_walking' won't print it at the
upper level, because it can see the last element has already been taken
care of.
Preserve the existing semantics of `set print elements' where the total
count of the elements handled is matched against the trigger level which
is unlike with the C/C++ array printer where the per-dimension element
count is used instead.
Output now looks like:
(gdb) set print repeats 4
(gdb) print array_2d
$1 = ((2, <repeats 5 times>) <repeats 5 times>)
(gdb) set print elements 12
(gdb) print array_2d
$2 = ((2, <repeats 5 times>) (2, <repeats 5 times>) (2, 2, ...) ...)
(gdb)
for a 5 by 5 array filled with the value of 2.
Amend existing test cases accordingly that rely on the current incorrect
behavior and explicitly request that there be no limit for printing
repeated elements there.
Add suitable test cases as well covering sliced arrays in particular.

The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

Following on from the previous commit, this commit changes the API of
value_struct_elt to take gdb::optional<gdb::array_view<value *>>
instead of a pointer to the gdb::array_view.
This makes the optional nature of the array_view parameter explicit.
This commit is purely a refactoring commit, there should be no user
visible change after this commit.
I have deliberately kept this refactor separate from the previous two
commits as this is a more extensive change, and I'm not 100% sure that
using gdb::optional for the parameter type, instead of a pointer, is
going to be to everyone's taste. If there's push back on this patch
then this one can be dropped from the series.

Previously, the prefixname field of struct cmd_list_element was manually
set for prefix commands. This seems verbose and error prone as it
required every single call to functions adding prefix commands to
specify the prefix name while the same information can be easily
generated.
Historically, this was not possible as the prefix field was null for
many commands, but this was fixed in commit
3f4d92ebdf7f848b5ccc9e8d8e8514c64fde1183 by Philippe Waroquiers, so
we can rely on the prefix field being set when generating the prefix
name.
This commit also fixes a use after free in this scenario:
* A command gets created via Python (using the gdb.Command class).
The prefix name member is dynamically allocated.
* An alias to the new command is created. The alias's prefixname is set
to point to the prefixname for the original command with a direct
assignment.
* A new command with the same name as the Python command is created.
* The object for the original Python command gets freed and its
prefixname gets freed as well.
* The alias is updated to point to the new command, but its prefixname
is not updated so it keeps pointing to the freed one.

* command.h (add_prefix_cmd): Remove the prefixname argument as
it can now be generated automatically. Update all callers.

This commit replaces this patch:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-January/174933.html
which was itself a replacement for this patch:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-July/170335.html
The motivation behind the original patch can be seen in the new test,
which currently gives a GDB session like this:
(gdb) ptype var8
type = Type type6
PTR TO -> ( Type type2 :: ptr_1 )
PTR TO -> ( Type type2 :: ptr_2 )
End Type type6
(gdb) ptype var8%ptr_2
type = PTR TO -> ( Type type2
integer(kind=4) :: spacer
Type type1, allocatable :: t2_array(:) <------ Issue #1
End Type type2 )
(gdb) ptype var8%ptr_2%t2_array
Cannot access memory at address 0x38 <------ Issue #2
(gdb)
Issue #1: Here we see the abstract dynamic type, rather than the
resolved concrete type. Though in some cases the user might be
interested in the abstract dynamic type, I think that in most cases
showing the resolved concrete type will be of more use. Plus, the
user can always figure out the dynamic type (by source code inspection
if nothing else) given the concrete type, but it is much harder to
figure out the concrete type given only the dynamic type.
Issue #2: In this example, GDB evaluates the expression in
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode (due to ptype). The value returned for
var8%ptr_2 will be a non-lazy, zero value of the correct dynamic
type. However, when GDB asks about the type of t2_array this requires
GDB to access the value of var8%ptr_2 in order to read the dynamic
properties. As this value was forced to zero (thanks to the use of
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS) then GDB ends up accessing memory at a base
of zero plus some offset.
Both this patch, and my previous two attempts, have all tried to
resolve this problem by stopping EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS replacing the
result value with a zero value in some cases.
This new patch is influenced by how Ada handles its tagged typed.
There are plenty of examples in ada-lang.c, but one specific case is
ada_structop_operation::evaluate. When GDB spots that we are dealing
with a tagged (dynamic) type, and we're in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS
mode, then GDB re-evaluates the child operation in EVAL_NORMAL mode.
This commit handles two cases like this specifically for Fortran, a
new fortran_structop_operation, and the already existing
fortran_undetermined, which is where we handle array accesses.
In these two locations we spot when we are dealing with a dynamic type
and re-evaluate the child operation in EVAL_NORMAL mode so that we
are able to access the dynamic properties of the type.
The rest of this commit message is my attempt to record why my
previous patches failed.
To understand my second patch, and why it failed lets consider two
expressions, this Fortran expression:
(gdb) ptype var8%ptr_2%t2_array --<A>
Operation: STRUCTOP_STRUCT --(1)
Operation: STRUCTOP_STRUCT --(2)
Operation: OP_VAR_VALUE --(3)
Symbol: var8
Block: 0x3980ac0
String: ptr_2
String: t2_array
And this C expression:
(gdb) ptype ptr && ptr->a == 3 --<B>
Operation: BINOP_LOGICAL_AND --(4)
Operation: OP_VAR_VALUE --(5)
Symbol: ptr
Block: 0x45a2a00
Operation: BINOP_EQUAL --(6)
Operation: STRUCTOP_PTR --(7)
Operation: OP_VAR_VALUE --(8)
Symbol: ptr
Block: 0x45a2a00
String: a
Operation: OP_LONG --(9)
Type: int
Constant: 0x0000000000000003
In expression <A> we should assume that t2_array is of dynamic type.
Nothing has dynamic type in expression <B>.
This is how GDB currently handles expression <A>, in all cases,
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS or EVAL_NORMAL, an OP_VAR_VALUE operation
always returns the real value of the symbol, this is not forced to a
zero value even in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode. This means that (3),
(5), and (8) will always return a real lazy value for the symbol.
However a STRUCTOP_STRUCT will always replace its result with a
non-lazy, zero value with the same type as its result. So (2) will
lookup the field ptr_2 and create a zero value with that type. In
this case the type is a pointer to a dynamic type.
Then, when we evaluate (1) to figure out the resolved type of
t2_array, we need to read the types dynamic properties. These
properties are stored in memory relative to the objects base address,
and the base address is in var8%ptr_2, which we already figured out
has the value zero. GDB then evaluates the DWARF expressions that
take the base address, add an offset and dereference. GDB then ends
up trying to access addresses like 0x16, 0x8, etc.
To fix this, I proposed changing STRUCTOP_STRUCT so that instead of
returning a zero value we instead returned the actual value
representing the structure's field in the target. My thinking was
that GDB would not try to access the value's contents unless it needed
it to resolve a dynamic type. This belief was incorrect.
Consider expression <B>. We already know that (5) and (8) will return
real values for the symbols being referenced. The BINOP_LOGICAL_AND,
operation (4) will evaluate both of its children in
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS in order to get the types, this is required
for C++ operator lookup. This means that even if the value of (5)
would result in the BINOP_LOGICAL_AND returning false (say, ptr is
NULL), we still evaluate (6) in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode.
Operation (6) will evaluate both children in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS
mode, operation (9) is easy, it just returns a value with the constant
packed into it, but (7) is where the problem lies. Currently in GDB
this STRUCTOP_STRUCT will always return a non-lazy zero value of the
correct type.
When the results of (7) and (9) are back in the BINOP_LOGICAL_AND
operation (6), the two values are passed to value_equal which performs
the comparison and returns a result. Note, the two things compared
here are the immediate value (9), and a non-lazy zero value from (7).
However, with my proposed patch operation (7) no longer returns a zero
value, instead it returns a lazy value representing the actual value
in target memory. When we call value_equal in (6) this code causes
GDB to try and fetch the actual value from target memory. If `ptr` is
NULL then this will cause GDB to access some invalid address at an
offset from zero, this will most likely fail, and cause GDB to throw
an error instead of returning the expected type.
And so, we can now describe the problem that we're facing. The way
GDB's expression evaluator is currently written we assume, when in
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode, that any value returned from a child
operation can safely have its content read without throwing an
error. If child operations start returning real values (instead of
the fake zero values), then this is simply not true.
If we wanted to work around this then we would need to rewrite almost
all operations (I would guess) so that EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode
does not cause evaluation of an operation to try and read the value of
a child operation. As an example, consider this current GDB code from
eval.c:
struct value *
eval_op_equal (struct type *expect_type, struct expression *exp,
enum noside noside, enum exp_opcode op,
struct value *arg1, struct value *arg2)
{
if (binop_user_defined_p (op, arg1, arg2))
{
return value_x_binop (arg1, arg2, op, OP_NULL, noside);
}
else
{
binop_promote (exp->language_defn, exp->gdbarch, &arg1, &arg2);
int tem = value_equal (arg1, arg2);
struct type *type = language_bool_type (exp->language_defn,
exp->gdbarch);
return value_from_longest (type, (LONGEST) tem);
}
}
We could change this function to be this:
struct value *
eval_op_equal (struct type *expect_type, struct expression *exp,
enum noside noside, enum exp_opcode op,
struct value *arg1, struct value *arg2)
{
if (binop_user_defined_p (op, arg1, arg2))
{
return value_x_binop (arg1, arg2, op, OP_NULL, noside);
}
else
{
struct type *type = language_bool_type (exp->language_defn,
exp->gdbarch);
if (noside == EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS)
return value_zero (type, VALUE_LVAL (arg1));
else
{
binop_promote (exp->language_defn, exp->gdbarch, &arg1, &arg2);
int tem = value_equal (arg1, arg2);
return value_from_longest (type, (LONGEST) tem);
}
}
}
Now we don't call value_equal unless we really need to. However, we
would need to make the same, or similar change to almost all
operations, which would be a big task, and might not be a direction we
wanted to take GDB in.
So, for now, I'm proposing we go with the more targeted, Fortran
specific solution, that does the minimal required in order to
correctly resolve the dynamic types.
