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.

This commit extends the breakpoint mechanism to allow for inferior
specific breakpoints (but not watchpoints in this commit).
As GDB gains better support for multiple connections, and so for
running multiple (possibly unrelated) inferiors, then it is not hard
to imagine that a user might wish to create breakpoints that apply to
any thread in a single inferior. To achieve this currently, the user
would need to create a condition possibly making use of the $_inferior
convenience variable, which, though functional, isn't the most user
friendly.
This commit adds a new 'inferior' keyword that allows for the creation
of inferior specific breakpoints.
Inferior specific breakpoints are automatically deleted when the
associated inferior is removed from GDB, this is similar to how
thread-specific breakpoints are deleted when the associated thread is
deleted.
Watchpoints are already per-program-space, which in most cases mean
watchpoints are already inferior specific. There is a small window
where inferior-specific watchpoints might make sense, which is after a
vfork, when two processes are sharing the same address space.
However, I'm leaving that as an exercise for another day. For now,
attempting to use the inferior keyword with a watchpoint will give an
error, like this:
(gdb) watch a8 inferior 1
Cannot use 'inferior' keyword with watchpoints
A final note on the implementation: currently, inferior specific
breakpoints, like thread-specific breakpoints, are inserted into every
inferior, GDB then checks once the inferior stops if we are in the
correct thread or inferior, and resumes automatically if we stopped in
the wrong thread/inferior.
An obvious optimisation here is to only insert breakpoint locations
into the specific program space (which mostly means inferior) that
contains either the inferior or thread we are interested in. This
would reduce the number times GDB has to stop and then resume again in
a multi-inferior setup.
I have a series on the mailing list[1] that implements this
optimisation for thread-specific breakpoints. Once this series has
landed I'll update that series to also handle inferior specific
breakpoints in the same way. For now, inferior specific breakpoints
are just slightly less optimal, but this is no different to
thread-specific breakpoints in a multi-inferior debug session, so I
don't see this as a huge problem.

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.

This commit contains QUIT processing updates for GDB's Guile support.
As with the Python updates, we don't want to permit this code to
swallow the exception, gdb_exception_forced_quit, which is associated
with GDB receiving a SIGTERM.
I've adopted the same solution that I used for Python; whereever
a gdb_exception is caught in try/catch code in the Guile extension
language support, a catch for gdb_exception_forced_quit has been
added; this catch block will simply call quit_force(), which will
cause the necessary cleanups to occur followed by GDB exiting.

Within the breakpoint struct we have two fields ::thread and ::task
which are used for thread or task specific breakpoints. When a
breakpoint doesn't have a specific thread or task then these fields
have the values -1 and 0 respectively.
There's no particular reason (as far as I can tell) why these two
"default" values are different, and I find the difference a little
confusing. Long term I'd like to potentially fold these two fields
into a single field, but that isn't what this commit does.
What this commit does is switch to using -1 as the "default" value for
both fields, this means that the default for breakpoint::task has
changed from 0 to -1. I've updated all the code I can find that
relied on the value of 0, and I see no test regressions, especially in
gdb.ada/tasks.exp, which still fully passes.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

After this mailing list posting:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-February/196607.html
it seems to me that in practice an Ada task maps 1:1 with a GDB
thread, and so it doesn't really make sense to allow uses to give both
a thread and a task within a single breakpoint or watchpoint
condition.
This commit updates GDB so that the user will get an error if both
are specified.
I've added new tests to cover the CLI as well as the Python and Guile
APIs. For the Python and Guile testing, as far as I can tell, this
was the first testing for this corner of the APIs, so I ended up
adding more than just a single test.
For documentation I've added a NEWS entry, but I've not added anything
to the docs themselves. Currently we document the commands with a
thread-id or task-id as distinct command, e.g.:
'break LOCSPEC task TASKNO'
'break LOCSPEC task TASKNO if ...'
'break LOCSPEC thread THREAD-ID'
'break LOCSPEC thread THREAD-ID if ...'
As such, I don't believe there is any indication that combining 'task'
and 'thread' would be expected to work; it seems clear to me in the
above that those four options are all distinct commands.
I think the NEWS entry is enough that if someone is combining these
keywords (it's not clear what the expected behaviour would be in this
case) then they can figure out that this was a deliberate change in
GDB, but for a new user, the manual doesn't suggest combining them is
OK, and any future attempt to combine them will give an error.

Rather than just `unlimited' allow the integer set commands (or command
options) to define arbitrary keywords for the user to use, removing
hardcoded arrangements for the `unlimited' keyword.
Remove the confusingly named `var_zinteger', `var_zuinteger' and
`var_zuinteger_unlimited' `set'/`show' command variable types redefining
them in terms of `var_uinteger', `var_integer' and `var_pinteger', which
have the range of [0;UINT_MAX], [INT_MIN;INT_MAX], and [0;INT_MAX] each.
Following existing practice `var_pinteger' allows extra negative values
to be used, however unlike `var_zuinteger_unlimited' any number of such
values can be defined rather than just `-1'.
The "p" in `var_pinteger' stands for "positive", for the lack of a more
appropriate unambiguous letter, even though 0 obviously is not positive;
"n" would be confusing as to whether it stands for "non-negative" or
"negative".
Add a new structure, `literal_def', the entries of which define extra
keywords allowed for a command and numerical values they correspond to.
Those values are not verified against the basic range supported by the
underlying variable type, allowing extra values to be allowed outside
that range, which may or may not be individually made visible to the
user. An optional value translation is possible with the structure to
follow the existing practice for some commands where user-entered 0 is
internally translated to UINT_MAX or INT_MAX. Such translation can now
be arbitrary. Literals defined by this structure are automatically used
for completion as necessary.
So for example:
const literal_def integer_unlimited_literals[] =
{
{ "unlimited", INT_MAX, 0 },
{ nullptr }
};
defines an extra `unlimited' keyword and a user-visible 0 value, both of
which get translated to INT_MAX for the setting to be used with.
Similarly:
const literal_def zuinteger_unlimited_literals[] =
{
{ "unlimited", -1, -1 },
{ nullptr }
};
defines the same keyword and a corresponding user-visible -1 value that
is used for the requested setting. If the last member were omitted (or
set to `{}') here, then only the keyword would be allowed for the user
to enter and while -1 would still be used internally trying to enter it
as a part of a command would result in an "integer -1 out of range"
error.
Use said error message in all cases (citing the invalid value requested)
replacing "only -1 is allowed to set as unlimited" previously used for
`var_zuinteger_unlimited' settings only rather than propagating it to
`var_pinteger' type. It could only be used for the specific case where
a single extra `unlimited' keyword was defined standing for -1 and the
use of numeric equivalents is discouraged anyway as it is for historical
reasons only that they expose GDB internals, confusingly different
across variable types. Similarly update the "must be >= -1" Guile error
message.
Redefine Guile and Python parameter types in terms of the new variable
types and interpret extra keywords as Scheme keywords and Python strings
used to communicate corresponding parameter values. Do not add a new
PARAM_INTEGER Guile parameter type, however do handle the `var_integer'
variable type now, permitting existing parameters defined by GDB proper,
such as `listsize', to be accessed from Scheme code.
With these changes in place it should be trivial for a Scheme or Python
programmer to expand the syntax of the `make-parameter' command and the
`gdb.Parameter' class initializer to have arbitrary extra literals along
with their internal representation supplied.
Update the testsuite accordingly.

While working on another patch, Simon pointed out that GDB could be
improved by marking the functions passed to the disassembler as
noexcept.
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-October/193084.html
The reason this is important is the on some hosts, libopcodes, being C
code, will not be compiled with support for handling exceptions. As
such, an attempt to throw an exception over libopcodes code will cause
GDB to terminate.
See bug gdb/29712 for an example of when this happened.
In this commit all the functions that are passed to the disassembler,
and which might be used as callbacks by libopcodes are marked
noexcept.
Ideally, I would have liked to change these typedefs:
using read_memory_ftype = decltype (disassemble_info::read_memory_func);
using memory_error_ftype = decltype (disassemble_info::memory_error_func);
using print_address_ftype = decltype (disassemble_info::print_address_func);
using fprintf_ftype = decltype (disassemble_info::fprintf_func);
using fprintf_styled_ftype = decltype (disassemble_info::fprintf_styled_func);
which are declared in disasm.h, as including the noexcept keyword.
However, when I tried this, I ran into this warning/error:
In file included from ../../src/gdb/disasm.c:25:
../../src/gdb/disasm.h: In constructor ‘gdb_printing_disassembler::gdb_printing_disassembler(gdbarch*, ui_file*, gdb_disassemble_info::read_memory_ftype, gdb_disassemble_info::memory_error_ftype, gdb_disassemble_info::print_address_ftype)’:
../../src/gdb/disasm.h:116:3: error: mangled name for ‘gdb_printing_disassembler::gdb_printing_disassembler(gdbarch*, ui_file*, gdb_disassemble_info::read_memory_ftype, gdb_disassemble_info::memory_error_ftype, gdb_disassemble_info::print_address_ftype)’ will change in C++17 because the exception specification is part of a function type [-Werror=noexcept-type]
116 | gdb_printing_disassembler (struct gdbarch *gdbarch,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I've left that change out. This does mean that if somebody adds a
new use of the disassembler classes in the future, and forgets to mark
the callbacks as noexcept, this will compile fine. We'll just have to
manually check for that during review.

sed 's/struct frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g' - which left some
issues in a few files, that were manually fixed.
sed 's/\<frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g'
sed 's/frame_info_ptr $/frame_info_ptr/g' - used to remove whitespace
problems.
The changed files were then manually checked and some 'sed' changes
undone, some constructors and some gets were added, according to what
made sense, and what Tromey originally did

This replaces frame_id_eq with operator== and operator!=. I wrote
this for a version of this series that I later abandoned; but since it
simplifies the code, I left this patch in.

This changes ui_out_redirect_pop to also perform the redirection, and
then updates several sites to use this, rather than explicit
redirects.

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 Guile code generally checks to see if an htab is non-null before
destroying it. However, the registry code already ensures this, so we
can change these checks to asserts and simplify the code a little.

This rewrites registry.h, removing all the macros and replacing it
with relatively ordinary template classes. The result is less code
than the previous setup. It replaces large macros with a relatively
straightforward C++ class, and now manages its own cleanup.
The existing type-safe "key" class is replaced with the equivalent
template class. This approach ended up requiring relatively few
changes to the users of the registry code in gdb -- code using the key
system just required a small change to the key's declaration.
All existing users of the old C-like API are now converted to use the
type-safe API. This mostly involved changing explicit deletion
functions to be an operator() in a deleter class.
The old "save/free" two-phase process is removed, and replaced with a
single "free" phase. No existing code used both phases.
The old "free" callbacks took a parameter for the enclosing container
object. However, this wasn't truly needed and is removed here as
well.

The guile code has a couple of unused functions that touch on the
registry API. This patch removes them.

When an objfile is destroyed, types that are still in use and
allocated on that objfile are copied. A temporary hash map is created
during this process, and it is allocated on the destroyed objfile's
obstack -- which normally is fine, as that is going to be destroyed
shortly anyway.
However, this approach requires that the objfile be passed to registry
destruction, and this won't be possible in the rewritten registry.
This patch changes the copied type hash table to simply use the heap
instead. It also removes the 'objfile' parameter from
copy_type_recursive, to make this all more clear.
This patch also fixes an apparent bug in copy_type_recursive.
Previously it was copying the dynamic property list to the dying
objfile's obstack:
- = copy_dynamic_prop_list (&objfile->objfile_obstack,
However I think this is incorrect -- that obstack is about to be
destroyed.

When building gdb with guile 3.0.8, we run into:
...
gdb/guile/guile.c: In function \

The variable has been deprecated because it no longer has any effect.
Fix this by disabling the specific deprecation warning.
Also handle upcoming guile versions > 3.0, in which the variable will be
removed, by limiting the usage of the variable to guile versions <= 3.0.
This does not break anything. The variable was merely used to address a
problem present in guile versions <= v3.0.5.
Note that we don't limit the usage of the variable to guile versions <= 3.0.5,
because we want to support f.i. building against 3.0.6 and then using a shared
lib with 3.0.5.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

This converts location_spec_to_string to a method of location_spec,
simplifying the code using it, as it no longer has to use
std::unique_ptr::get().

Currently, GDB internally uses the term "location" for both the
location specification the user input (linespec, explicit location, or
an address location), and for actual resolved locations, like the
breakpoint locations, or the result of decoding a location spec to
SaLs. This is expecially confusing in the breakpoints module, as
struct breakpoint has these two fields:
breakpoint::location;
breakpoint::loc;
"location" is the location spec, and "loc" is the resolved locations.
And then, we have a method called "locations()", which returns the
resolved locations as range...
The location spec type is presently called event_location:
/* Location we used to set the breakpoint. */
event_location_up location;
and it is described like this:
/* The base class for all an event locations used to set a stop event
in the inferior. */
struct event_location
{
and even that is incorrect... Location specs are used for finding
actual locations in the program in scenarios that have nothing to do
with stop events. E.g., "list" works with location specs.
To clean all this confusion up, this patch renames "event_location" to
"location_spec" throughout, and then all the variables that hold a
location spec, they are renamed to include "spec" in their name, like
e.g., "location" -> "locspec". Similarly, functions that work with
location specs, and currently have just "location" in their name are
renamed to include "spec" in their name too.
