2023-12-14gdb: change value_of_register and value_of_register_lazy to take the next frameSimon Marchi1-1/+2
Some functions related to the handling of registers in frames accept "this frame", for which we want to read or write the register values, while other functions accept "the next frame", which is the frame next to that. The later is needed because we sometimes need to read register values for a frame that does not exist yet (usually when trying to unwind that frame-to-be). value_of_register and value_of_register_lazy both take "this frame", even if what they ultimately want internally is "the next frame". This is annoying if you are in a spot that currently has "the next frame" and need to call one of these functions (which happens later in this series). You need to get the previous frame only for those functions to get the next frame again. This is more manipulations, more chances of mistake. I propose to change these functions (and a few more functions in the subsequent patches) to operate on "the next frame". Things become a bit less awkward when all these functions agree on which frame they take. So, in this patch, change value_of_register_lazy and value_of_register to take "the next frame" instead of "this frame". This adds a lot of get_next_frame_sentinel_okay, but if we convert the user registers API to also use "the next frame" instead of "this frame", it will get simple again.

This changes gdb to use the C++17 [[fallthrough]] attribute rather than special comments. This was mostly done by script, but I neglected a few spellings and so also fixed it up by hand. I suspect this fixes the bug mentioned below, by switching to a standard approach that, presumably, clang supports.

2023-11-21gdb: Replace gdb::optional with std::optionalLancelot Six7-16/+16
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.

2023-11-17gdb: remove get_current_regcacheSimon Marchi1-2/+1
Remove get_current_regcache, inlining the call to get_thread_regcache in callers. When possible, pass the right thread_info object known from the local context. Otherwise, fall back to passing `inferior_thread ()`. This makes the reference to global context bubble up one level, a small step towards the long term goal of reducing the number of references to global context (or rather, moving those references as close as possible to the top of the call tree). No behavior change expected. Change-Id: Ifa6980c88825d803ea586546b6b4c633c33be8d6

2023-10-10gdb: remove target_gdbarchSimon Marchi2-5/+5
This function is just a wrapper around the current inferior's gdbarch. I find that having that wrapper just obscures where the arch is coming from, and that it's often used as "I don't know which arch to use so I'll use this magical target_gdbarch function that gets me an arch" when the arch should in fact come from something in the context (a thread, objfile, symbol, etc). I think that removing it and inlining `current_inferior ()->arch ()` everywhere will make it a bit clearer where that arch comes from and will trigger people into reflecting whether this is the right place to get the arch or not.

2023-09-07gdb/mi: make current_token a field of mi_interpSimon Marchi4-14/+19
Following the commit f818c32ba459 ("gdb/mi: fix ^running record with multiple MI interpreters"), I thought it would make sense to make current_token a field of mi_interp. This variable contains the token of the currently handled MI command, like the 222 in: 222-exec-continue I didn't find any bug related to that, it's just a "that seems nicer" cleanup, since the current token is a fundamentally per-interp thing. mi_execute_command needs a check similar to what we already have in mi_cmd_gdb_exit: when invoked from Python's gdb.execute_mi, the current interpreter is not an mi_interp. When using the Python gdb.execute_mi function, there is no such concept of token, so we can just skip that. There should be no user-visible change.

2023-08-23gdb: centralize "[Thread ...exited]" notificationsPedro Alves2-2/+5
Currently, each target backend is responsible for printing "[Thread ...exited]" before deleting a thread. This leads to unnecessary differences between targets, like e.g. with the remote target, we never print such messages, even though we do print "[New Thread ...]". E.g., debugging the gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp with gdbserver, letting it run for a bit, and then pressing Ctrl-C, we currently see: (gdb) c Continuing. ^C[New Thread 3850398.3887449] [New Thread 3850398.3887500] [New Thread 3850398.3887551] [New Thread 3850398.3887602] [New Thread 3850398.3887653] ...

There's one wrinkle, though. While most targest want to print: [Thread ... exited] the Windows target wants to print: [Thread ... exited with code <exit_code>] ... and sometimes wants to suppress the notification for the main thread. To address that, this commits adds a delete_thread_with_code function, only used by that target (so far).

2023-08-17gdb: add inferior-specific breakpointsAndrew Burgess3-4/+31
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.

2023-07-07Remove unchecked casts to mi_interpTom Tromey3-27/+39
Simon noticed a crash that could be caused via new Python gdb.execute_mi function. Looking into this, I found a few unchecked casts to mi_interp, like: - struct mi_interp *mi = (struct mi_interp *) command_interp (); This patch replaces all such casts with safer variants. For -gdb-exit and mi_load_progress, I chose to have the functions simply not generate any output. It didn't seem useful to do so. Some casts I eliminated by adding a parameter to a function. Then, in mi_execute_command, I changed the code to use gdb::checked_static_cast. This is appropriate because this particular overload can only be called by the MI interpreter. There does not seem to be a very good way to test -gdb-exit. Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 36.
