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.
2023-01-01Update 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.
2022-11-28gdbserver: switch to right process in find_one_threadSimon Marchi1-0/+26
New in this version: add a dedicated test. When I do this: $ ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q \ /bin/sleep \ -ex "maint set target-non-stop on" \ -ex "tar ext :1234" \ -ex "set remote exec-file /bin/sleep" \ -ex "run 1231 &" \ -ex add-inferior \ -ex "inferior 2" Reading symbols from /bin/sleep...

Note the "attach" command just above. When doing it on the command-line with a -ex switch, the bug doesn't trigger. The internal error of GDB is actually caused by GDBserver crashing, and the error recovery of GDB is not on point. This patch aims to fix just the GDBserver crash, not the GDB problem. GDBserver crashes with a segfault here: (gdb) bt #0 0x00005555557fb3f4 in find_one_thread (ptid=...) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/thread-db.cc:177 #1 0x00005555557fd5cf in thread_db_thread_handle (ptid=<error reading variable: Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffffffffffa0>, handle=0x7fffffffc400, handle_len=0x7fffffffc3f0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/thread-db.cc:461 #2 0x000055555578a0b6 in linux_process_target::thread_handle (this=0x5555558a64c0 <the_x86_target>, ptid=<error reading variable: Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffffffffffa0>, handle=0x7fffffffc400, handle_len=0x7fffffffc3f0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.cc:6905 #3 0x00005555556dfcc6 in handle_qxfer_threads_worker (thread=0x60b000000510, buffer=0x7fffffffc8a0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:1645 #4 0x00005555556e00e6 in operator() (__closure=0x7fffffffc5e0, thread=0x60b000000510) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:1696 #5 0x00005555556f54be in for_each_thread<handle_qxfer_threads_proper(buffer*)::<lambda(thread_info*)> >(struct {...}) (func=...) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/gdbthread.h:159 #6 0x00005555556e0242 in handle_qxfer_threads_proper (buffer=0x7fffffffc8a0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:1694 #7 0x00005555556e04ba in handle_qxfer_threads (annex=0x629000000213 "", readbuf=0x621000019100 '\276' <repeats 200 times>..., writebuf=0x0, offset=0, len=4097) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:1732 #8 0x00005555556e1989 in handle_qxfer (own_buf=0x629000000200 "qXfer:threads", packet_len=26, new_packet_len_p=0x7fffffffd630) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:2045 #9 0x00005555556e720a in handle_query (own_buf=0x629000000200 "qXfer:threads", packet_len=26, new_packet_len_p=0x7fffffffd630) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:2685 #10 0x00005555556f1a01 in process_serial_event () at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:4176 #11 0x00005555556f4457 in handle_serial_event (err=0, client_data=0x0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:4514 #12 0x0000555555820f56 in handle_file_event (file_ptr=0x607000000250, ready_mask=1) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:573 #13 0x0000555555821895 in gdb_wait_for_event (block=1) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:694 #14 0x000055555581f533 in gdb_do_one_event (mstimeout=-1) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:264 #15 0x00005555556ec9fb in start_event_loop () at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:3512 #16 0x00005555556f0769 in captured_main (argc=4, argv=0x7fffffffe0d8) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:3992 #17 0x00005555556f0e3f in main (argc=4, argv=0x7fffffffe0d8) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/server.cc:4078 The reason is a wrong current process when find_one_thread is called. The current process is the 2nd one, which was just attached. It does not yet have thread_db data (proc->priv->thread_db is nullptr). As we iterate on all threads of all process to fulfull the qxfer:threads:read request, we get to a thread of process 1 for which we haven't read thread_db information yet (lwp_info::thread_known is false), so we get into find_one_thread. find_one_thread uses `current_process ()->priv->thread_db`, assuming the current process matches the ptid passed as a parameter, which is wrong. A segfault happens when trying to dereference that thread_db pointer. Fix this by making find_one_thread not assume what the current process / current thread is. If it needs to call into libthread_db, which we know will try to read memory from the current process, then temporarily set the current process. In the case where the thread is already know and we return early, we don't need to switch process. Add a test to reproduce this specific situation.
