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.

A user noticed that TYPE_CODE_FIXED_POINT was not exported by the gdb
Python layer. This patch fixes the bug, and prevents future
occurences of this type of bug.

Do not assert that a value intended for an integer parameter, of either
the PARAM_UINTEGER or the PARAM_ZUINTEGER_UNLIMITED type, is boolean,
causing error messages such as:
ERROR: In procedure make-parameter:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_make_parameter: Wrong type argument in position 15 (expecting integer or #:unlimited): 3
Error while executing Scheme code.
when initialization with a number is attempted. Instead assert that it
is integer. Keep matching `#:unlimited' keyword as an alternative. Add
suitable test cases.

The frame_info_ptr patches broke the build with Guile. This patch
fixes the problem. In mos cases I chose to preserve the use of
frame_info_ptr, at least where I could be sure that the object
lifetime did not interact with Guile's longjmp-based exception scheme.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.

This changes GDB to use frame_info_ptr instead of frame_info *
The substitution was done with multiple sequential `sed` commands:
sed 's/^struct frame_info;/class frame_info_ptr;/'
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 for a version of this series that I later abandoned; but since it

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:

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().
Change-Id: I621bdad8ea084470a2724163f614578caf8f2dd5

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.

This commit is setup for the next commit.
In the next commit I will add a Python API to intercept the print_insn
calls within GDB, each print_insn call is responsible for
disassembling, and printing one instruction. After the next commit it
will be possible for a user to write Python code that either wraps
around the existing disassembler, or even, in extreme situations,
entirely replaces the existing disassembler.
This commit does not add any new Python API.
What this commit does is put the extension language framework in place
for a print_insn hook. There's a new callback added to 'struct
extension_language_ops', which is then filled in with nullptr for Python
and Guile.
Finally, in the disassembler, the code is restructured so that the new
extension language function ext_lang_print_insn is called before we
delegate to gdbarch_print_insn.
After this, the next commit can focus entirely on providing a Python
implementation of the new print_insn callback.
There should be no user visible change after this commit.

This turns symbol_objfile into a method on symbol.
|

Same idea as previous patch, but for symtab::objfile. I find
it clearer without this wrapper, as it shows that the objfile is
common to all symtabs of a given compunit. Otherwise, you could think
that each symtab (of a given compunit) can have a specific objfile.

symtab::blockvector is a wrapper around compunit_symtab::blockvector.
It is a bit misleadnig, as it gives the impression that a symtab has a
blockvector. Remove it, change all users to fetch the blockvector
through the compunit instead.

print_spaces_filtered is now misnamed, because whether filtering
happens is up to the stream. So, rename it.

This changes all existing calls to wrap_here to call the method on the
appropriate ui_file instead. The choice of ui_file is determined by
context.
|
|
I think it only really makes sense to call wrap_here with an argument
consisting solely of spaces. Given this, it seemed better to me that
the argument be an int, rather than a string. This patch is the
result. Much of it was written by a script.
|
|
A common pattern for string_file is to want to move out the internal
string buffer, because it is the result of the computation that we want
to return. It is the reason why string_file::string returns a non-const
reference, as explained in the comment. I think it would make sense to
have a dedicated method for that instead and make string_file::string
return a const reference.
This allows removing the explicit std::move in the typical case. Note
that compile_program::compute was missing a move, meaning that the
resulting string was copied. With the new version, it's not possible to
forget to move.

While looking into the language-capturing issue, I found another way
to crash gdb using parameters from Python:
(gdb) python print(gdb.parameter('endian'))
(This is related to PR python/12188, though this patch isn't going to
fix what that bug is really about.)
The problem here is that the global variable that underlies the
"endian" parameter is initialized to NULL. However, that's not a
valid value for an "enum" set/show parameter.
My understanding is that, in gdb, an "enum" parameter's underlying
variable must have a value that is "==" (not just strcmp-equal) to one
of the values coming from the enum array. This invariant is relied on
in various places.
I started this patch by fixing the problem with "endian". Then I
added some assertions to add_setshow_enum_cmd to try to catch other
problems of the same type.
This patch fixes all the problems that I found. I also looked at all
the calls to add_setshow_enum_cmd to ensure that they were all
included in the gdb I tested. I think they are: there are no calls in
nat-* files, or in remote-sim.c; and I was trying a build with all
targets, Python, and Guile enabled.

In an earlier version of the pager rewrite series, it was important to
audit unfiltered output calls to see which were truly necessary.
This is no longer necessary, but it still seems like a decent cleanup
to change calls to avoid explicitly passing gdb_stdout. That is,
rather than using something like fprintf_unfiltered with gdb_stdout,
the code ought to use plain printf_unfiltered instead.
This patch makes this change. I went ahead and converted all the
_filtered calls I could find, as well, for the same clarity.
|
|
This moves the gdb_argv class to a new header in gdbsupport.
|
|
In my tour of the ui_file subsystem, I found that fputstr and fputstrn
can be simplified. The _filtered forms are never used (and IMO
unlikely to ever be used) and so can be removed. And, the interface
can be simplified by removing a callback function and moving the
implementation directly to ui_file.
A new self-test is included. Previously, I think nothing was testing
this code.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.
