2023-11-21gdb: Replace gdb::optional with std::optionalLancelot Six1-2/+2
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.

2023-10-05gdb/configure.ac: Add option --with-additional-debug-dirsThiago Jung Bauermann1-0/+5
If you want to install GDB in a custom prefix, have it look for debug info in that prefix but also in the distro's default location (typically, /usr/lib/debug) and run the GDB testsuite before doing "make install", you have a bit of a problem: Configuring GDB with '--prefix=$PREFIX' sets the GDB 'debug-file-directory' parameter to $PREFIX/lib/debug. Unfortunately this precludes GDB from looking for distro-installed debug info in /usr/lib/debug. For regular GDB use you could set debug-file-directory to $PREFIX:/usr/lib/debug in $PREFIX/etc/gdbinit so that GDB will look in both places, but if you want to run the testsuite then that doesn't help because in that case GDB runs with the '-nx' option. There's the configure option '--with-separate-debug-dir' to set the default value for 'debug-file-directory', but it accepts only one directory and not a list. I considered modifying it to accept a list, but it's not obvious how to do that because its value is also used by BFD, as well as processed for "relocatability". I thought it was simpler to add a new option to specify a list of additional directories that will be appended to the debug-file-directory setting.

2023-10-05gdb: remove print_sys_errmsgAndrew Burgess1-6/+1
This started with me running into this comment in symfile.c: /* FIXME, should use print_sys_errmsg but it's not filtered. */ gdb_printf (_("`%ps' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.\n"), styled_string (file_name_style.style (), filename)); In this particular case I think I disagree with the comment; I think the output should be a warning rather than just a message printed to gdb_stdout, I think when the executable, or some other objfile that is currently being debugged, disappears from disk, this is likely an unexpected situation, and worth warning the user about. So, in theory, I could just call print_sys_errmsg and remove the comment, but that would mean loosing the filename styling in the output... so in the end I remove the comment and updated the code to call warning. But that got me looking at print_sys_errmsg and how it's used. Currently the function takes a string and an errno, and prints, to stderr, the string followed by the result of calling strerror on the errno. In some places the string passed to print_sys_errmsg is just a filename, and this is used when something goes wrong. In these cases, I think calling warning rather than gdb_printf to gdb_stderr, would be better, and in fact, in a couple of places we manually print a "warning" prefix, and then call print_sys_errmsg. And so, for these users I have added a new function warning_filename_and_errno, which takes a filename, which is printed with styling, and an errno, which is passed through strerror and the resulting string printed. This new function calls warning to print its output. I then updated some of the print_sys_errmsg users to use this new function. Some other users of print_sys_errmsg are also emitting what is clearly a warning, however, the string being passed in is more than just a filename, so the new warning_filename_and_errno function can't be used, it would style the whole string. For these users I have switched to calling warning directly, this allows me to style the warning message correctly. Finally, in inflow.c there is one last call to print_sys_errmsg, in this case I just inlined the definition of print_sys_errmsg. This is a really weird case, as after printing this message GDB just does a hard exit. This is pretty old code, dating back to the initial GDB import, I guess it should be updated to call error() maybe, but I'm reluctant to make this change as part of this commit, just in case there's some reason why we can't throw an error at this point. With that done there are now no users of print_sys_errmsg, and so the old function can be removed. While I was doing all of the above I added some additional filename styling in soure.c, this is in an else block where the if contained the print_sys_errmsg call, so these felt related. And finally, while I was updating the uses of print_sys_errmsg in procfs.c, I noticed that we used a static errmsg buffer to format some error strings. As the above changes got rid of one of the users of errmsg I also removed the other two users, and the static buffer. There were a couple of tests that depended on the existing output message format that needed updating. In one case we gained an extra 'warning: ' prefix, and in the other 'Warning: ' becomes 'warning: ', I think in both cases the new output is an improvement. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>

2023-02-27Handle gdb SIGTERM by throwing / catching gdb_exception_force_quitKevin Buettner1-0/+12
When a GDB process receives the SIGTERM signal, handle_sigterm() in event-top.c is called. The global variable 'sync_quit_force_run' is set by this signal handler. It does some other things too, but the setting of this global is the important bit for the SIGTERM part of this discussion. GDB will periodically check to see whether a Ctrl-C or SIGTERM has been received. This is performed via use of the QUIT macro in GDB's code. QUIT is defined to invoke maybe_quit(), which will be periodically called during any lengthy operation. This is supposed to ensure that the user won't have to wait too long for a Ctrl-C or SIGTERM to be acted upon. When a Ctrl-C / SIGINT is received, quit_handler() will decide whether to pass the SIGINT onto the inferior or to call quit() which causes gdb_exception_quit to be thrown. This exception (usually) propagates to the top level. Control is then returned to the top level event loop. At the moment, SIGTERM is handled very differently. Instead of throwing an exception, quit_force() is called. This does eventually cause GDB to exit(), but prior to that happening, the inferiors are killed or detached and other target related cleanup occurs. As shown in this discussion between Pedro Alves and myself... https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180802.html https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180902.html https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-July/180903.html ...we found that it is possible for inferior_ptid and current_thread_ to get out of sync. When that happens, the "current_thread_ != nullptr" assertion in inferior_thread() can fail resulting in a GDB internal error. Pedro recommended that we "let the normal quit exception propagate all the way to the top level, and then have the top level call quit_force if sync_quit_force_run is set." However, after the v2 series for this patch set, we tweaked that idea by introducing a new exception for handling SIGTERM. This commit implements the obvious part of Pedro's suggestion: Instead of calling quit_force from quit(), throw_forced_quit() is now called instead. This causes the new exception 'gdb_exception_forced_quit' to be thrown. At the top level, I changed catch_command_errors() and captured_main() to catch gdb_exception_forced_quit and then call quit_force() from the catch block. I also changed start_event_loop() to also catch gdb_exception_forced_quit; while we could also call quit_force() from that catch block, it's sufficient to simply rethrow the exception since it'll be caught by the newly added code in captured_main(). Making these changes fixed the failure / regression that I was seeing for gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp when run on a machine with glibc-2.34. However, there are many other paths back to the top level which this test case does not test. I did an audit of all of the try / catch code in GDB in which calls in the try-block might (eventually) call QUIT. I found many cases where gdb_exception_quit and the new gdb_exception_forced_quit will be swallowed. (When using GDB, have you ever hit Ctrl-C and not have it do anything; if so, it could be due to a swallowed gdb_exception_quit in one of the cases I've identified.) The rest of the patches in this series deal with this concern.

2022-03-29Remove unnecessary calls to wrap_here and gdb_flushTom Tromey1-4/+0
Various spots in gdb currently know about the wrap buffer, and so are careful to call wrap_here to be certain that all output has been flushed. Now that the pager is just an ordinary stream, this isn't needed, and a simple call to gdb_flush is enough. Similarly, there are places where gdb prints to gdb_stderr, but first flushes gdb_stdout. stderr_file already flushes gdb_stdout, so these aren't needed.

2021-10-03gdb: make string-like set show commands use std::string variableSimon Marchi1-11/+6
String-like settings (var_string, var_filename, var_optional_filename, var_string_noescape) currently take a pointer to a `char *` storage variable (typically global) that holds the setting's value. I'd like to "mordernize" this by changing them to use an std::string for storage. An obvious reason is that string operations on std::string are often easier to write than with C strings. And they avoid having to do any manual memory management. Another interesting reason is that, with `char *`, nullptr and an empty string often both have the same meaning of "no value". String settings are initially nullptr (unless initialized otherwise). But when doing "set foo" (where `foo` is a string setting), the setting now points to an empty string. For example, solib_search_path is nullptr at startup, but points to an empty string after doing "set solib-search-path". This leads to some code that needs to check for both to check for "no value". Or some code that converts back and forth between NULL and "" when getting or setting the value. I find this very error-prone, because it is very easy to forget one or the other. With std::string, we at least know that the variable is not "NULL". There is only one way of representing an empty string setting, that is with an empty string. I was wondering whether the distinction between NULL and "" would be important for some setting, but it doesn't seem so. If that ever happens, it would be more C++-y and self-descriptive to use optional<string> anyway. Actually, there's one spot where this distinction mattered, it's in init_history, for the test gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp. init_history sets the history filename to the default ".gdb_history" if it sees that the setting was never set - if history_filename is nullptr. If history_filename is an empty string, it means the setting was explicitly cleared, so it leaves it as-is. With the change to std::string, this distinction doesn't exist anymore. This can be fixed by moving the code that chooses a good default value for history_filename to _initialize_top. This is ran before -ex commands are processed, so an -ex command can then clear that value if needed (what gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp tests). Another small improvement, in my opinion is that we can now easily give string parameters initial values, by simply initializing the global variables, instead of xstrdup-ing it in the _initialize function. In Python and Guile, when registering a string-like parameter, we allocate (with new) an std::string that is owned by the param_smob (in Guile) and the parmpy_object (in Python) objects. This patch started by changing all relevant add_setshow_* commands to take an `std::string *` instead of a `char **` and fixing everything that failed to build. That includes of course all string setting variable and their uses. string_option_def now uses an std::string also, because there's a connection between options and settings (see add_setshow_cmds_for_options). The add_path function in source.c is really complex and twisted, I'd rather not try to change it to work on an std::string right now. Instead, I added an overload that copies the std:string to a `char *` and back. This means more copying, but this is not used in a hot path at all, so I think it is acceptable.

2021-04-15gdb: process early initialization files and command line optionsAndrew Burgess1-1/+60
Adds the ability to process commands at a new phase during GDB's startup. This phase is earlier than the current initialisation file processing, before GDB has produced any output. The number of commands that can be processed at this early stage will be limited, and it is expected that the only commands that would be processed at this stage will relate to some of the fundamentals of how GDB starts up. Currently the only commands that it makes sense to add to this early initialization file are those like 'set style version ....' as the version string is displayed during startup before the standard initialization files are parsed. As such this commit fully resolved bug cli/25956. This commit adds a mechanism to execute these early initialization files from a users HOME directory, as well as some corresponding command line flags for GDB. The early initialization files that GDB will currently check for are ~/.config/gdb/gdbearlyinit (on Linux like systems) or ~/.gdbearlyinit if the former is not found.

2021-01-21gdb: convert auto-load to new-style debug macrosSimon Marchi1-7/+9
Function file_is_auto_load_safe was taking a format string and varargs just to output a debug print. This is probably because that function is used in linux-thread-db.c and main.c, but debug_auto_load is static in auto-load.c. I simplified that, making debug_auto_load visible outside of auto-load.c, and making the callers of file_is_auto_load_safe output the debug print themselves. This file uses _() for internationalization of the debug messages. This is not necessary, as these are mostly messages for GDB developers, and it's not used in other files anyway. So I removed them.

Small refactor to wrap up executing the scripts and commands passed using the -x, -ex, -ix, -iex command line flags. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. gdb/ChangeLog: * main.c (execute_cmdargs): New function. (captured_main_1): Make use of execute_cmdargs.
2020-11-02gdb: use get_standard_config_dir when looking for .gdbinitAndrew Burgess1-11/+2
This commit effectively changes the default location of the .gdbinit file, while maintaining backward compatibility. For non Apple hosts the .gdbinit file will now be looked for in the following locations: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gdb/gdbinit $HOME/.config/gdb/gdbinit $HOME/.gdbinit On Apple hosts the search order is instead: $HOME/Library/Preferences/gdb/gdbinit $HOME/.gdbinit I've performed an extensive rewrite of the documentation, moving all information about initialization files and where to find them into a new @node, text from other areas has been moved into this one location, and other areas cross-reference to this new @node as much as possible. gdb/ChangeLog: * NEWS: Mention changes to config file search path. * main.c gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Mode Options): Descriptions of initialization files has been moved to 'Initialization Files'. (Startup): Likewise. (Initialization Files): New node. (gdb man): Update to mention alternative file paths. (gdbinit man): Likewise.
2020-11-02gdb, gdbserver, gdbsupport: fix leading space vs tabs issuesSimon Marchi1-17/+17
Many spots incorrectly use only spaces for indentation (for example, there are a lot of spots in ada-lang.c). I've always found it awkward when I needed to edit one of these spots: do I keep the original wrong indentation, or do I fix it? What if the lines around it are also wrong, do I fix them too? I probably don't want to fix them in the same patch, to avoid adding noise to my patch. So I propose to fix as much as possible once and for all (hopefully). One typical counter argument for this is that it makes code archeology more difficult, because git-blame will show this commit as the last change for these lines. My counter counter argument is: when git-blaming, you often need to do "blame the file at the parent commit" anyway, to go past some other refactor that touched the line you are interested in, but is not the change you are looking for. So you already need a somewhat efficient way to do this. Using some interactive tool, rather than plain git-blame, makes this trivial. For example, I use "tig blame <file>", where going back past the commit that changed the currently selected line is one keystroke. It looks like Magit in Emacs does it too (though I've never used it). Web viewers of Github and Gitlab do it too. My point is that it won't really make archeology more difficult. The other typical counter argument is that it will cause conflicts with existing patches. That's true... but it's a one time cost, and those are not conflicts that are difficult to resolve. I have also tried "git rebase --ignore-whitespace", it seems to work well. Although that will re-introduce the faulty indentation, so one needs to take care of fixing the indentation in the patch after that (which is easy). gdb/ChangeLog: * aarch64-linux-tdep.c: Fix

This converts the get_inferior_io_terminal and set_inferior_io_terminal free functions to inferior methods. Since the related commands are called "tty", "{set,show} inferior-tty", and MI's "-inferior-tty-{set,show}", to make the connection between the commands and the code more obvious, the methods are named set_tty/tty instead of set_io_terminal/io_terminal. gdb/ChangeLog: * fork-child.c (prefork_hook): Adjust. * infcmd.c (set_inferior_io_terminal, get_inferior_io_terminal): Delete.

2020-04-13Move start_event_loop out of event-loop.cTom Tromey1-0/+56
A subsequent patch is going to move event-loop.c to gdbsupport. In a review of an earlier version of this series, Pedro pointed out that the resulting code would be cleaner if start_event_loop were not shared -- because gdb and gdbserver have some different needs here -- and so this moves start_event_loop to main.c. Because the only caller is there, it is also now static. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-04-13 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * event-loop.h (start_event_loop): Don't declare. * event-loop.c (start_event_loop): Move... * main.c (start_event_loop): ...here. Now static.
2020-02-20gdb: Allow more control over where to find python librariesAndrew Burgess1-8/+3
The motivation behind this commit is to make it easier to bundle the Python *.py library files with GDB when statically linking GDB against libpython. The Python files will be manually added into the GDB installation tree, and GDB should be able to find them at run-time. The installation tree will look like this: . |-- bin/ |-- include/ |-- lib/ | `-- python3.8/ `-- share/ The benefit here is that the entire installation tree can be bundled into a single archive and copied to another machine with a different version of Python installed, and GDB will still work, including its Python support. In use the new configure options would be used something like this, first build and install a static Python library: mkdir python cd python # Clone or download Python into a src/ directory. mkdir build export PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH=$PWD/install cd build ../src/configure --disable-shared --prefix=$PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH make make install Now build and install GDB: mkdir binutils-gdb cd binutils-gdb # Clone or download GDB into a src/ directory. mkdir build export GDB_INSTALL_DIR=$PWD/install cd build ../src/configure \ --prefix=$GDB_INSTALL_DIR \ --with-python=$PYTHON_INSTALL_PATH/bin/python3 \ --with-python-libdir=$GDB_INSTALL_DIR/lib make all-gdb make install-gdb Finally, copy the Python libraries into the GDB install: cp -r $PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR/lib/python3.8/ $GDB_INSTALL_DIR/lib After this the Python src, build, and install directories are no longer needed and can be deleted. If the new --with-python-libdir option is not used then the existing behaviour is left unchanged, GDB will look for the Python libraries in the lib/ directory within the python path. The concatenation of the python prefix and the string 'lib/' is now done at configure time, rather than at run time in GDB as it was previous, however, this was never something that the user had dynamic control over, so there's no loss of functionality. gdb/ChangeLog: * config.in: Regenerate. * configure: Regenerate. * configure.ac: Add --with-python-libdir option. * main.c: Use WITH_PYTHON_LIBDIR.

While handling the comments of Tom related to [RFC] Have an option to tell GDB to detect and possibly handle mismatched exec-files. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-12/msg00621.html I saw that GDB warnings are produced ignoring the given styles. This patch: * ensures that style markups are properly handled by "warning". * changes 'set/show data-directory' so that file style is used in warnings and in 'show message' * changes all other messages in top.c to use file style when appropriate. * Uses the above data-directory changes in gdb.base/style.exp 2020-01-03 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * ui-file.c (stdio_file::can_emit_style_escape) (tee_file::can_emit_style_escape): Ensure style is used also on gdb_stderr when gdb_stderr is a tty supporting styling, similarly to gdb_stdout. * main.c (set_gdb_data_directory): Use file style to output the warning that the given pathname is not a directory. * top.c (show_history_filename, gdb_safe_append_history) (show_gdb_datadir): Use file style. 2020-01-03 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.base/style.exp: Test that warnings are styled.

2019-11-26Introduce alternate_signal_stack RAII classTom Tromey1-24/+2
This introduces a new RAII class that temporarily installs an alternate signal stack (on systems that have sigaltstack); then changes the one gdb use of sigaltstack to use this class instead. This will be used in a later patch, when creating new threads that may want to handle SIGSEGV. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * main.c (setup_alternate_signal_stack): Remove. (captured_main_1): Use gdb::alternate_signal_stack. * gdbsupport/alt-stack.h: New file. Change-Id: I721c047ae9d51a35fd274a6dbc00a58c6440dae6
