2024-04-23gdb: move a bunch of quit-related things to event-top.{c,h}Simon Marchi1-0/+1
Move some declarations related to the "quit" machinery from defs.h to event-top.h. Most of the definitions associated to these declarations are in event-top.c. The exceptions are `quit()` and `maybe_quit()`, that are defined in utils.c. For consistency, move these two definitions to event-top.c. Include "event-top.h" in many files that use these things.

2024-01-28Use the new symbol domainsTom Tromey1-4/+4
This patch changes the DWARF reader to use the new symbol domains. It also adjusts many bits of associated code to adapt to this change. The non-DWARF readers are updated on a best-effort basis. This is somewhat simpler since most of them only support C and C++. I have no way to test a few of these. I went back and forth a few times on how to handle the "tag" situation. The basic problem is that C has a special namespace for tags, which is separate from the type namespace. Other languages don't do this. So, the question is, should a DW_TAG_structure_type end up in the tag domain, or the type domain, or should it be language-dependent? I settled on making it language-dependent using a thought experiment. Suppose there was a Rust compiler that only emitted nameless DW_TAG_structure_type objects, and specified all structure type names using DW_TAG_typedef. This DWARF would be correct, in that it faithfully represents the source language -- but would not work with a purely struct-domain implementation in gdb. Therefore gdb would be wrong. Now, this approach is a little tricky for C++, which uses tags but also enters a typedef for them. I notice that some other readers -- like stabsread -- actually emit a typedef symbol as well. And, I think this is a reasonable approach. It uses more memory, but it makes the internals simpler. However, DWARF never did this for whatever reason, and so in the interest of keeping the series slightly shorter, I've left some C++-specific hacks in place here. Note that this patch includes language_minimal as a language that uses tags. I did this to avoid regressing gdb.dwarf2/debug-names-tu.exp, which doesn't specify the language for a type unit. Arguably this test case is wrong. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30164
2024-01-12Update copyright year range in header of all files managed by GDBAndrew Burgess1-1/+1
This commit is the result of the following actions: - Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to include 2024, - Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the file, - Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright date, - Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've updated them this year to 2024. I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as you spot them.

2023-11-21Remove byte vectors from cplus_struct_typeTom Tromey1-81/+42
This removes some byte vectors from cplus_struct_type, moving the information into bitfields in holes in struct field. A new 'enum accessibility' is added to hold some of this information. A similar enum is removed from c-varobj.c. Note that the stabs reader treats "ignored" as an accessibility. However, the stabs texinfo documents this as a public field that is optimized out -- unfortunately nobody has updated the stabs reader to use the better value-based optimized-out machinery. I looked and apparently gcc never emitted this visibility value, so whatever compiler generated this stab is unknown. I left a comment in gdbtypes.h to this effect.

2023-11-21gdb: Use std::string_view instead of gdb::string_viewLancelot Six1-1/+1
Given that GDB now requires a C++17, replace all uses of gdb::string_view with std::string_view. This change has mostly been done automatically: - gdb::string_view -> std::string_view - #include "gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h" -> #include <string_view> One things which got brought up during review is that gdb::stging_view does support being built from "nullptr" while std::sting_view does not. Two places are manually adjusted to account for this difference: gdb/tui/tui-io.c:tui_getc_1 and gdbsupport/format.h:format_piece::format_piece. The above automatic change transformed "gdb::to_string (const gdb::string_view &)" into "gdb::to_string (const std::string_view &)". The various direct users of this function are now explicitly including "gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h". A later patch will remove the users of gdb::to_string. The implementation and tests of gdb::string_view are unchanged, they will be removed in a following patch.

2023-09-19Give a language to a typeTom Tromey1-9/+11
This changes main_type to hold a language, and updates the debug readers to set this field. This is done by adding the language to the type-allocator object. Note that the non-DWARF readers are changed on a "best effort" basis. This patch also reimplements type::is_array_like to use the type's language, and it adds a new type::is_string_like as well. This in turn lets us change the Python implementation of these methods to simply defer to the type.

2023-08-31[gdb/symtab] Do more zero-initialization of type::fieldsTom de Vries1-1/+1
Now that we've introduced type::{alloc_fields,copy_fields}, the places where no zero-initialization of allocated fields is done are easy to spot: ... $ find gdb* -type f | grep -v ChangeLog | xargs grep alloc_fields | grep false gdb/coffread.c: type->alloc_fields (nfields, false); gdb/coffread.c: type->alloc_fields (nsyms, false); gdb/stabsread.c: ftype->alloc_fields (nsemi, false); gdb/gdbtypes.c: resolved_type->alloc_fields (nfields, false); gdb/gdbtypes.c: alloc_fields (nfields, false); gdb/gdbtypes.c: alloc_fields (nfields, false); gdb/mdebugread.c: t->alloc_fields (nfields, false); gdb/mdebugread.c: ftype->alloc_fields (nparams, false); ... All hits in gdbtypes.c are ok. There are two hits in the two variants of copy_fields, and there's already a comment for the third.

2023-08-31[gdb/symtab] Factor out type::{alloc_fields,copy_fields}Tom de Vries1-17/+4
After finding this code in buildsym_compunit::finish_block_internal: ... ftype->set_fields ((struct field *) TYPE_ALLOC (ftype, nparams * sizeof (struct field))); ... and fixing PR30810 by using TYPE_ZALLOC, I wondered if there were more locations that needed fixing. I decided to make things easier to spot by factoring out a new function alloc_fields: ... /* Allocate the fields array of this type, with NFIELDS elements. If INIT, zero-initialize the allocated memory. */ void type::alloc_fields (unsigned int nfields, bool init = true); ... where: - a regular use would be "alloc_fields (nfields)", and - an exceptional use that needed no initialization would be "alloc_fields (nfields, false)". Pretty soon I discovered that most of the latter cases are due to initialization by memcpy, so I added two variants of copy_fields as well. After this rewrite there are 8 uses of set_fields left: ... gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr); gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr); gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr); gdb/eval.c: type->set_fields gdb/gdbtypes.c: type->set_fields (args); gdb/gdbtypes.c: t->set_fields (XRESIZEVEC (struct field, t->fields (), gdb/dwarf2/read.c: type->set_fields (new_fields); gdb/dwarf2/read.c: sub_type->set_fields (sub_type->fields () + 1); ... These fall into the following categories: - set to nullptr (coffread.c), - type not owned by objfile or gdbarch (eval.c), and - modifying an existing fields array, like adding an element at the end or dropping an element at the start (the rest). Tested on x86_64-linux.

2023-02-08Set section indices when symbols are madeTom Tromey1-6/+8
Most places in gdb that create a new symbol will apply a section offset to the address. It seems to me that the choice of offset here is also an implicit choice of the section. This is particularly true if you examine fixup_section, which notes that it must be called before such offsets are applied -- meaning that if any such call has an effect, it's purely by accident. This patch cleans up this area by tracking the section index and applying it to a symbol when the address is set. This is done for nearly every case -- the remaining cases will be handled in later patches.

2022-12-01Add name canonicalization for CTom Tromey1-11/+19
PR symtab/29105 shows a number of situations where symbol lookup can result in the expansion of too many CUs. What happens is that lookup_signed_typename will try to look up a type like "signed int". In cooked_index_functions::expand_symtabs_matching, when looping over languages, the C++ case will canonicalize this type name to be "int" instead. Then this method will proceed to expand every CU that has an entry for "int" -- i.e., nearly all of them. A crucial component of this is that the caller, objfile::lookup_symbol, does not do this canonicalization, so when it tries to find the symbol for "signed int", it fails -- causing the loop to continue. This patch fixes the problem by introducing name canonicalization for C. The idea here is that, by making C and C++ agree on the canonical name when a symbol name can have multiple spellings, we avoid the bad behavior in objfile::lookup_symbol (and any other such code -- I don't know if there is any). Unlike C++, C only has a few situations where canonicalization is needed. And, in particular, due to the lack of overloading (thus avoiding any issues in linespec) and due to the way c-exp.y works, I think that no canonicalization is needed during symbol lookup -- only during symtab construction. This explains why lookup_name_info is not touched. The stabs reader is modified on a "best effort" basis. The DWARF reader needed one small tweak in dwarf2_name to avoid a regression in dw2-unusual-field-names.exp. I think this is adequately explained by the comment, but basically this is a scenario that should not occur in real code, only the gdb test suite. lookup_signed_typename is simplified. It used to search for two different type names, but now gdb can search just for the canonical form. gdb.dwarf2/enum-type.exp needed a small tweak, because the canonicalizer turns "unsigned integer" into "unsigned int integer". It seems better here to use the correct C type name.

2022-07-28Rewrite registry.hTom Tromey1-2/+2
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.
