gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files
|
|
The recent-ish commit e5f25bc5d6db ('Fix "list ambiguous_variable"')
caused a serious regression on PPC64. See
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-11/msg00666.html>.
Basically, after that patch, GDB sets breakpoints in function
descriptors instead of where the descriptors point to, which is
incorrect.
The problem is that GDB now only runs a minsym's address through
gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr if msymbol_is_text returns true.
However, if the symbol points to a function descriptor,
msymbol_is_text is false since function descriptors are in fact
outside the text section.
The fix is to also run a non-text address through
gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr, and if that detects that it was
indeed a function descriptor, treat the resulting address as a
function.
While implementing that directly in linespec.c:minsym_found (where the
bad msymbol_is_text check is) fixes the issue, I noticed that
linespec.c:add_minsym has some code that also basically needs to do
the same checks, however it's implemented differently. Also,
add_minsym is calling find_pc_sect_line on non-function symbols, which
also doesn't look right.
So I introduced msymbol_is_function, so that we have a simple place to
consider minsyms and function descriptors.
And then, the only other use of msymbol_is_text is in
find_function_alias_target, which turns out to also be incorrect.
Changing that one to use msymbol_is_function, i.e., to consider
function descriptors too fixes (on PPC64):
-FAIL: gdb.base/symbol-alias.exp: p func_alias
-FAIL: gdb.base/symbol-alias.exp: p *func_alias()
+PASS: gdb.base/symbol-alias.exp: p func_alias
+PASS: gdb.base/symbol-alias.exp: p *func_alias()
And then after that, msymbol_is_text is no longer used anywhere, so it
can be removed.
Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux, no regressions. Tested on PPC64 GNU/Linux
and results compared to a testrun of e5f25bc5d6db^ (before the
offending commit), also no regressions. (there's a couple new FAILs
and some new symbol name matching unit tests are crashing, but that
looks unrelated).

The support for setting breakpoint in functions with ABI tags patch
will add a use of SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT in cp-support.c, which fails to
compile with:
src/gdb/cp-support.c:38:0:
src/gdb/cp-support.c: In function ‘unsigned int cp_search_name_hash(const char*)’:
src/gdb/../include/safe-ctype.h:148:20: error: ‘do_not_use_tolower_with_safe_ctype’ was not declared in this scope
#define tolower(c) do_not_use_tolower_with_safe_ctype
^
src/gdb/minsyms.h:174:18: note: in expansion of macro ‘tolower’
((hash) * 67 + tolower ((unsigned char) (c)) - 113)
^
src/gdb/cp-support.c:1677:14: note: in expansion of macro ‘SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT’
hash = SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT (hash, *string);
^
This fixes the problem before it happens.
I was somewhat worried about whether this might have an impact with
languages that are case insensitive, but I convinced myself that it
doesn't. As bonus, this improves GDB's minsym interning performance a
bit (3%-10%). See
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-11/msg00021.html>.

* dictionary.c: Include "safe-ctype.h".
* minsyms.c: Include "safe-ctype.h".
* minsyms.c (SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT): Use TOLOWER instead of tolower.

Summary:
- This is preparation for supporting wild name matching on C++ too.
- This is also preparation for TAB-completion fixes.
- Makes symbol name matching (think strcmp_iw) be based on a per-language method.
- Merges completion and non-completion name comparison (think
language_ops::la_get_symbol_name_cmp generalized).
- Avoid re-hashing lookup name multiple times
- Centralizes preparing a name for lookup (Ada name encoding / C++ Demangling),
both completion and non-completion.
- Fixes Ada latent bug with verbatim name matches in expressions
- Makes ada-lang.c use common|symtab.c completion code a bit more.
Ada's wild matching basically means that
"(gdb) break foo"
will find all methods named "foo" in all packages. Translating to
C++, it's roughly the same as saying that "break klass::method" sets
breakpoints on all "klass::method" methods of all classes, no matter
the namespace. A following patch will teach GDB about fullname vs
wild matching for C++ too. This patch is preparatory work to get
there.
Another idea here is to do symbol name matching based on the symbol
language's algorithm. I.e., avoid dependency on current language set.
This allows for example doing
(gdb) b foo::bar< int > (<tab>
and having gdb name match the C++ symbols correctly even if the
current language is C or Assembly (or Rust, or Ada, or ...), which can
easily happen if you step into an Assembly/C runtime library frame.
By encapsulating all the information related to a lookup name in a
class, we can also cache hash computation for a given language in the
lookup name object, to avoid recomputing it over and over.
Similarly, because we don't really know upfront which languages the
lookup name will be matched against, for each language we store the
lookup name transformed into a search name. E.g., for C++, that means
demangling the name. But for Ada, it means encoding the name. This
actually forces us to centralize all the different lookup name
encoding in a central place, resulting in clearer code, IMO. See
e.g., the new ada_lookup_name_info class.
The lookup name -> symbol search name computation is also done only
once per language.
The old language->la_get_symbol_name_cmp / symbol_name_cmp_ftype are
generalized to work with both completion, and normal symbol look up.
At some point early on, I had separate completion vs non-completion
language vector entry points, but a single method ends up being better
IMO for simplifying things -- the more we merge the completion /
non-completion name lookup code paths, the less changes for bugs
causing completion vs normal lookup finding different symbols.
The ada-lex.l change is necessary because when doing
(gdb) p <UpperCase>
then the name that is passed to write_ write_var_or_type ->
ada_lookup_symbol_list misses the "<>", i.e., it's just "UpperCase",
and we end up doing a wild match against "UpperCase" lowercased by
ada_lookup_name_info's constructor. I.e., "uppercase" wouldn't ever
match "UpperCase", and the symbol lookup fails.
This wouldn't cause any regression in the testsuite, but I added a new
test that would pass before the patch and fail after, if it weren't
for that fix.
This is latent bug that happens to go unnoticed because that
particular path was inconsistent with the rest of Ada symbol lookup by
not lowercasing the lookup name.
Ada's symbol_completion_add is deleted, replaced by using common
code's completion_list_add_name. To make the latter work for Ada, we
needed to add a new output parameter, because Ada wants to return back
a custom completion candidates that are not the symbol name.
With this patch, minimal symbol demangled name hashing is made
consistent with regular symbol hashing. I.e., it now goes via the
language vector's search_name_hash method too, as I had suggested in a
previous patch.
dw2_expand_symtabs_matching / .gdb_index symbol names were a
challenge. The problem is that we have no way to telling what is the
language of each symbol name found in the index, until we expand the
corresponding full symbol, which is off course what we're trying to
avoid. Language information is simply not considered in the index
format... Since the symbol name hashing and comparison routines are
per-language, we now have a problem. The patch sorts this out by
matching each name against all languages. This is inneficient, and
indeed slows down completion several times. E.g., with:
$ cat script.cmd
set pagination off
set $count = 0
while $count < 400
complete b string_prin
printf "count = %d\n", $count
set $count = $count + 1
end
$ time gdb --batch -q ./gdb-with-index -ex "source script-string_printf.cmd"
I get, before patch (-O2, x86-64):
real 0m1.773s
user 0m1.737s
sys 0m0.040s
While after patch (-O2, x86-64):
real 0m9.843s
user 0m9.482s
sys 0m0.034s
However, the following patch will optimize this, and will actually
make this use case faster compared to the "before patch" above:
real 0m1.321s
user 0m1.285s
sys 0m0.039s

The previous patch left GDB with an inconsistency. While with normal
expression evaluation the "unknown return type" error shows the name
of the function that misses debug info:
(gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^
which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:
(gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
^^^^^^^^
This commit is a step toward fixing it.
The problem is that while evaluating the expression above, we have no
reference to the minimal symbol where we could extract the name from.
This is because the resulting expression tree has no reference to the
minsym at all. During parsing, the type and address of the minsym are
extracted and an UNOP_MEMVAL / UNOP_MEMVAL_TLS operator is generated
(see write_exp_elt_msym). With "set debug expression", here's what
you see:
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 UNOP_MEMVAL Type @0x565334a51930 (<text variable, no debug info>)
6 OP_LONG Type @0x565334a51c60 (__CORE_ADDR), value 140737345035648 (0x7ffff7751d80)
The "print" case finds the function name, because
call_function_by_hand looks up the function by address again.
However, for "ptype", we don't reach that code, because obviously we
don't really call the function.
Unlike minsym references, references to variables with debug info have
a pointer to the variable's symbol in the expression tree, with
OP_VAR_VALUE:
(gdb) ptype main()
...
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 OP_VAR_VALUE Block @0x0, symbol @0x559bbbd9b358 (main(int, char**))
...
so I don't see why do minsyms need to be different. So to prepare for
fixing the missing function name issue, this commit adds a new
OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE operator that mimics OP_VAR_VALUE, except that it's
for minsyms instead of debug symbols. For infcalls, we now get
expressions like these:
0 OP_FUNCALL Number of args: 0
3 OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE Objfile @0x1e41bf0, msymbol @0x7fffe599b000 (getenv)
In the following patch, we'll make OP_FUNCALL extract the function
name from the symbol stored in OP_VAR_VALUE/OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE.
OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE will be used more in a later patch in the series
too.

(Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2017-06/msg00048.html)
This patch improves GDB support for function aliases defined with
__attribute__ alias. For example, in the test added by this commit,
there is no reference to "func_alias" in the debug info at all, only
to "func"'s definition:
$ nm ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep " func"
00000000004005ae t func
00000000004005ae T func_alias
$ readelf -w ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep func -B 1 -A 8
<1><db>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<dc> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x111): func
<e0> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<e1> DW_AT_decl_line : 27
<e2> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<e2> DW_AT_type : <0xf8>
<e6> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x4005ae
<ee> DW_AT_high_pc : 0xb
<f6> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<f8> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
So all GDB knows about "func_alias" is from the minsym (elf symbol):
(gdb) p func_alias
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func_alias
type = int ()
(gdb) p func
$2 = {struct S *(void)} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func
type = struct S {
int field1;
int field2;
} *(void)
The result is that calling func_alias from the command line produces
incorrect results.
This is similar (though not exactly the same) to the glibc
errno/__errno_location/__GI___errno_location situation. On glibc,
errno is defined like this:
extern int *__errno_location (void);
#define errno (*__errno_location ())
with __GI___errno_location being an internal alias for
__errno_location. On my system's libc (F23), I do see debug info for
__errno_location, in the form of name vs linkage name:
<1><95a5>: Abbrev Number: 18 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<95a6> DW_AT_external : 1
<95a6> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x2c26): __errno_location
<95aa> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<95ab> DW_AT_decl_line : 24
<95ac> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x2c21): __GI___errno_location
<95b0> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<95b0> DW_AT_type : <0x9206>
<95b4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x20f40
<95bc> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x11
<95c4> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<95c6> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
however that doesn't matter in practice, because GDB doesn't record
demangled names anyway, and so we end up with the exact same situation
covered by the testcase.
So the fix is to make the expression parser find a debug symbol for
the same address as the just-found minsym, when a lookup by name
didn't find a debug symbol by name. We now get:
(gdb) p func_alias

I've made the test exercise variable aliases too, for completeness.
Those already work correctly, because unlike for function aliases, GCC
emits debug information for variable aliases.
Tested on GNU/Linux.

This changes minimal_symbol_reader to require the objfile to be

automatically uses it later in "install".
This is a minor cleanup that will come in useful in the next patch.

minsyms.h incorrectly claims that a couple of functions call
prim_record_minimal_symbol_full with COPY_NAME=0 -- but actually they
pass 1. Passing 1 is the correct behavior, so this patch fixes the
documentation.
I'm checking this in as obvious.

This removes the runtime offsets from minsyms. Instead, these offsets
will now be applied whenever the minsym's address is computed.
This patch redefines MSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS to actually use the offsets
from the given objfile. Then, it updates all the symbol readers,
changing them so that they do not add in the section offset when
creating the symbol.
This change also lets us remove relocation of minsyms from
objfile_relocate1 and also msymbols_sort.

This patch changes a few minimal symbol lookup functions to return a
bound_minimal_symbol rather than a pointer to the minsym. This change
helps prepare gdb for computing a minimal symbol's address at the
point of use.
Note that this changes even those functions that ostensibly search a
single objfile. That was necessary because, in fact, those functions
can search an objfile and its separate debug objfiles; and it is
important for the caller to know in which objfile the minimal symbol
was actually found.
The bulk of this patch is mechanical.

This introduces minimal_symbol_upper_bound and changes various bits of
code to use it. Since this function is intimately tied to the
implementation of minimal symbol tables, I believe it belongs in
minsyms.c.
The new function is extracted from find_pc_partial_function_gnu_ifunc.
This isn't a "clean" move because the old function interleaved the
caching and the computation; but this doesn't make sense for the new
code.

This is another patch in my ongoing series to "split" objfile to share
more read-only data across inferiors. See
http://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/ObjfileSplitting
When symbols are finally shared, there will be no back-link from the
symbol to its containing objfile, because there may be more than one
such objfile. So, all such back-links must be removed.
One hidden back-link is the msymbol_objfile function. Since
(eventually) a symbol may appear in more than one objfile, trying to
look up the objfile given just a symbol cannot work.
This patch removes msymbol_objfile in favor of using a bound minimal
symbol. It introduces a new function to make this conversion simpler
in some spots.
The bonus of this patch is that using msymbol_objfile is slower than
simply looking up the owning objfile in the first place.
