2023-11-21[gdb/testsuite] Fix spurious FAILs with examine-backward.exp, againTom de Vries1-9/+9
Commit 59a561480d5 ("Fix spurious FAILs with examine-backward.exp") describes the problem that: ... The test case examine-backward.exp issues the command "x/-s" after the end of the first string in TestStrings, but without making sure that this string is preceded by a string terminator. Thus GDB may spuriously print some random characters from before that string, and then the test fails. ... The commit fixes the problem by adding a Barrier variable before the TestStrings variable: ... +const char Barrier[] = { 0x0 }; const char TestStrings[] = { ... There is however no guarantee that Barrier is placed immediately before TestStrings. Before recent commit 169fe7ab54b ("Change gdb.base/examine-backwards.exp for AIX.") on x86_64-linux, I see: ... 0000000000400660 R Barrier 0000000000400680 R TestStrings ... So while the Barrier variable is the first before the TestStrings variable, it's not immediately preceding TestStrings. After commit 169fe7ab54b: ... 0000000000402259 B Barrier 0000000000402020 D TestStrings ... they're not even in the same section anymore. Fix this reliably by adding the zero in the array itself: ... char TestStringsBase[] = { 0x0, ... }; char *TestStrings = &TestStringsBase[1]; ... and do likewise for TestStringsH and TestStringsW. Tested on x86_64-linux. PR testsuite/31064 Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31064
2023-01-01Update copyright year range in header of all files managed by GDBJoel Brobecker1-1/+1
This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script, which automated the update of the copyright year range for all source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include year 2023.

2021-09-30gdb/testsuite: make runto_main not pass no-message to runtoSimon Marchi1-1/+0
As follow-up to this discussion: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-August/171385.html ... make runto_main not pass no-message to runto. This means that if we fail to run to main, for some reason, we'll emit a FAIL. This is the behavior we want the majority of (if not all) the time. Without this, we rely on tests logging a failure if runto_main fails, otherwise. They do so in a very inconsisteny mannet, sometimes using "fail", "unsupported" or "untested". The messages also vary widly. This patch removes all these messages as well. Also, remove a few "fail" where we call runto (and not runto_main). by default (without an explicit no-message argument), runto prints a failure already. In two places, gdb.multi/multi-re-run.exp and gdb.python/py-pp-registration.exp, remove "message" passed to runto. This removes a few PASSes that we don't care about (but FAILs will still be printed if we fail to run to where we want to). This aligns their behavior with the rest of the testsuite.

2020-09-18gdb.base/examine-backward.exp C++ify and ClangPedro Alves1-2/+5
Adjust gdb.base/examine-backward.exp to let the testcase build and run as a C++ program, built with either G++ or Clang++. The change to use unsigned char instead of plain char is to avoid narrowing warnings: gdb compile failed, src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/examine-backward.c:55:1: error: narrowing conversion of '227' from 'int' to 'char' [-Wnarrowing] 55 | }; | ^ gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/examine-backward.c (Barrier, TestStrings): Now unsigned char array. (main): Add references to Barrier, TestStrings, TestStringsH and TestStringsW. * gdb.base/examine-backward.exp: Issue "set print asm-demangle on" and expect a full prototype in C++.

2019-08-15Fix paste-o in examine-backward.exp.Sandra Loosemore1-1/+1
This patch fixes a paste-o that was introduced in commit c8ad9b9a31aa3e6039567fc1f152dd454c946d5f. Previously the regexp for the "examine 3 bytes backward from ${address_zero}" test correctly matched 3 "${byte}" patterns, but in that commit the 6-byte regexp from the previous test was mistakenly repeated here instead. 2019-08-15 Sandra Loosemore <sandra@codesourcery.com> gdb/testsuite/ * gdb.base/examine-backward.exp: Correct regexp for "examine 3 bytes backward from ${address_zero}".
2019-01-01Update copyright year range in all GDB files.Joel Brobecker1-1/+1
This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py script. Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid copyright header (gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc). As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header was sent to gcc-patches first. gdb/ChangeLog: Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
2018-07-09gdb/testsuite: Allow for failure to read some memory addressesAndrew Burgess1-12/+56
In the gdb.base/examine-backward.exp test script, we check to see if address zero is readable, and then read memory first forward from address zero, and then backward from address zero. The problem is, being able to read address zero does not guarantee that you'll be able to read from the other end of the address space, and the test probably shouldn't assume that is the case. This patch updates the test script so that even if address zero is known non-readable, we still run the tests, the tests in question are mostly about, can GDB calculate the correct address to read from, we can confirm this even if the final read ultimately fails. We also no longer assume that if address zero is readable, then the other end of the address space will be readable. One further change is that, when we examined the memory at address zero, the regexp used to match the address expected that the zero address would have two '0' digits as the least significant digits. As GDB strips leading zeros from addresses this was causing the test to fail. I've reduced the zero address to a single 0 digit. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/examine-backward.exp: Still run tests around address 0x0, even if address 0x0 is not readable. Update the pattern for matching address 0x0 in expected output.

2016-12-01Fix test names starting with uppercase output by basic functionsLuis Machado1-1/+1
The following patch is based on the previous patch i sent and handles cases of test names that start with an uppercase letter. Test names should start with lowercase unless it starts with the name of a technology, architecture, ISA etc. This first patch addresses cases of test names output explicitly via xfail, kfail, kpass, fail, pass, unsupported, untested and also names set with the pattern "set test" and "set testname". gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2016-12-01 Luis Machado <lgustavo@codesourcery.com> Fix test names

2016-06-09Add negative repeat count to 'x' commandToshihito Kikuchi1-0/+324
This change adds support for specifying a negative repeat count to all the formats of the 'x' command to examine memory backward. A new testcase 'examine-backward' is added to cover this new feature.
