When using $_thread in info threads to showonly the current thread,
you get this error:
```
(gdb) info thread $_thread
Convenience variable must have integer value.
Args must be numbers or '$' variables.
```
It's because $_thread is a dynamically computed convenience
variable, which isn't supported yet by get_internalvar_integer.
Now the output looks like this:
```
(gdb) info threads $_thread

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.

In the following commit I ran into a problem. The next commit aims to
improve GDB's handling of the main executable being a file on a remote
target (i.e. one with a 'target:' prefix).
To do this I have replaced a system 'stat' call with a bfd_stat call.
However, doing this caused a regression in gdb.base/attach.exp.
The problem is that the bfd library caches open FILE* handles for bfd
objects that it has accessed, which is great for short-lived, non
interactive programs (e.g. the assembler, or objcopy, etc), however,
for GDB this caching causes us a problem.
If we open the main executable as a bfd then the bfd library will
cache the open FILE*. If some time passes, maybe just sat at the GDB
prompt, or with the inferior running, and then later we use bfd_stat
to check if the underlying, on-disk file has changed, then the bfd
library will actually use fstat on the underlying file descriptor.
This is of course slightly different than using system stat on with
the on-disk file name.
If the on-disk file has changed then system stat will give results for
the current on-disk file. But, if the bfd cache is still holding open
the file descriptor for the original on-disk file (from before the
change) then fstat will return a result based on the original file,
and so show no change as having happened.
This is a known problem in GDB, and so far this has been solved by
scattering bfd_cache_close_all() calls throughout GDB. But, as I
said, in the next commit I've made a change and run into a
problem (gdb.base/attach.exp) where we are apparently missing a
bfd_cache_close_all() call.
Now I could solve this problem by adding a bfd_cache_close_all() call
before the bfd_stat call that I plan to add in the next commit, that
would for sure solve the problem, but feels a little crude.
Better I think would be to track down where the bfd is being opened
and add a corresponding bfd_cache_close_all() call elsewhere in GDB
once we've finished doing whatever it is that caused us to open the
bfd in the first place.
This second solution felt like the better choice, so I tracked the
problem down to elf_locate_base and fixed that. But that just exposed
another problem in gdb_bfd_map_section which was also re-opening the
bfd, so I fixed this (with another bfd_cache_close_all() call), and
that exposed another issue in gdbarch_lookup_osabi... and at this
point I wondered if I was approaching this problem the wrong way...
.... And so, I wonder, is there a _better_ way to handle these
bfd_cache_close_all() calls?
I see two problems with the current approach:
1. It's fragile. Folk aren't always aware that they need to clear
the bfd cache, and this feels like something that is easy to
overlook in review. So adding new code to GDB can innocently touch
a bfd, which populates the cache, which will then be a bug that can
lie hidden until an on-disk file just happens to change at the wrong
time ... and GDB fails to spot the change. Additionally,
2. It's in efficient. The caching is intended to stop the bfd
library from continually having to re-open the on-disk file. If we
have a function that touches a bfd then often that function is the
obvious place to call bfd_cache_close_all. But if a single GDB
command calls multiple functions, each of which touch the bfd, then
we will end up opening and closing the same on-disk file multiple
times. It feels like we would be better postponing the
bfd_cache_close_all call until some later point, then we can benefit
from the bfd cache.
So, in this commit I propose a new approach. We now clear the bfd
cache in two places:
(a) Just before we display a GDB prompt. We display a prompt after
completing a command, and GDB is about to enter an idle state
waiting for further input from the user (or in async mode, for an
inferior event). If while we are in this idle state the user
changes the on-disk file(s) then we would like GDB to notice this
the next time it leaves its idle state, e.g. the next time the user
executes a command, or when an inferior event arrives,
(b) When we resume the inferior. In synchronous mode, resuming the
inferior is another time when GDB is blocked and sitting idle, but
in this case we don't display a prompt. As with (a) above, when an
inferior event arrives we want GDB to notice any changes to on-disk
files.
It turns out that there are existing observers for both of these
cases (before_prompt and target_resumed respectively), so my initial
thought was that I should attach to these observers in gdb_bfd.c, and
in both cases call bfd_cache_close_all().
And this does indeed solve the gdb.base/attach.exp problem that I see
with the following commit.
However, I see a problem with this solution.
Both of the observers I'm using are exposed through the Python API as
events that a user can hook into. The user can potentially run any
GDB command (using gdb.execute), so Python code might end up causing
some bfds to be reopened, and inserted into the cache.
To solve this one solution would be to add a bfd_cache_close_all()
call into gdbpy_enter::~gdbpy_enter(). Unfortunately, there's no
similar enter/exit object for Guile, though right now Guile doesn't
offer the same event API, so maybe we could just ignore that
problem... but this doesn't feel great.
So instead, I think a better solution might be to not use observers
for the bfd_cache_close_all() calls. Instead, I'll call
bfd_cache_close_all() directly from core GDB after we've notified the
before_prompt and target_resumed observers, this was we can be sure
that the cache is cleared after the observers have run, and before GDB
enters an idle state.
This commit also removes all of the other bfd_cache_close_all() calls
from GDB. My claim is that these are no longer needed.

GDB doesn't handle correctly the case where a thread steps over a
breakpoint (using either in-line or displaced stepping), and the
executed instruction causes the thread to exit.
Using the test program included later in the series, this is what it
looks like with displaced-stepping, on x86-64 Linux, where we have two
displaced-step buffers:

The first two times we do "continue", we displaced-step the syscall
instruction that causes the thread to exit. When the thread exits,
the main thread, waiting on pthread_join, is unblocked. It spawns a
new thread, which hits the breakpoint on the syscall again. However,
infrun was never notified that the displaced-stepping threads are done
using the displaced-step buffer, so now both buffers are marked as
used. So when we do the third continue, there are no buffers
available to displaced-step the syscall, so the thread waits forever
for its turn.

... hangs ...
The "continue" causes an in-line step to occur, meaning the main
thread is stopped while we step the syscall. The stepped thread exits
when executing the syscall, the linux-nat target notices there are no
more resumed threads to be waited for, so returns
TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, which causes the prompt to return. But
infrun never clears the in-line step over info. So if we try
continuing the main thread, GDB doesn't resume it, because it thinks
there's an in-line step in progress that we need to wait for to
finish, and we are stuck there.
To fix this, infrun needs to be informed when a thread doing a
displaced or in-line step over exits. We can do that with the new
target_set_thread_options mechanism which is optimal for only enabling
exit events of the thread that needs it; or, if that is not supported,
by using target_thread_events, which enables thread exit events for
all threads. This is done by this commit.
This patch then modifies handle_inferior_event in infrun.c to clean up
any step-over the exiting thread might have been doing at the time of
the exit. The cases to consider are:
- the exiting thread was doing an in-line step-over with an all-stop
target
- the exiting thread was doing an in-line step-over with a non-stop
target
- the exiting thread was doing a displaced step-over with a non-stop
target
The displaced-stepping buffer implementation in displaced-stepping.c
is modified to account for the fact that it's possible that we
"finish" a displaced step after a thread exit event. The buffer that
the exiting thread was using is marked as available again and the
original instructions under the scratch pad are restored. However, it
skips applying the fixup, which wouldn't make sense since the thread
does not exist anymore.
Another case that needs handling is if a displaced-stepping thread
exits, and the event is reported while we are in stop_all_threads. We
should call displaced_step_finish in the handle_one function, in that
case. It was already called in other code paths, just not the "thread
exited" path.
This commit doesn't make infrun ask the target to report the
TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_EXITED events yet, that'll be done later in the
series.
Note that "stop_print_frame = false;" line is moved to normal_stop,
because TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_EXITED can also end up with the event
transmorphed into TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED. Moving it to
normal_stop keeps it centralized.

A previous patch taught GDB about a new TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_CLONED
event kind, and made the Linux target report clone events.
A following patch will teach Linux GDBserver to do the same thing.
However, for remote debugging, it wouldn't be ideal for GDBserver to
report every clone event to GDB, when GDB only cares about such events
in some specific situations. Reporting clone events all the time
would be potentially chatty. We don't enable thread create/exit
events all the time for the same reason. Instead we have the
QThreadEvents packet. QThreadEvents is target-wide, though.
This patch makes GDB instead explicitly request that the target
reports clone events or not, on a per-thread basis.
In order to be able to do that with GDBserver, we need a new remote
protocol feature. Since a following patch will want to enable thread
exit events on per-thread basis too, the packet introduced here is
more generic than just for clone events. It lets you enable/disable a
set of options at once, modelled on Linux ptrace's PTRACE_SETOPTIONS.
IOW, this commit introduces a new QThreadOptions packet, that lets you
specify a set of per-thread event options you want to enable. The
packet accepts a list of options/thread-id pairs, similarly to vCont,
processed left to right, with the options field being a number
interpreted as a bit mask of options. The only option defined in this
commit is GDB_THREAD_OPTION_CLONE (0x1), which ask the remote target
to report clone events. Another patch later in the series will
introduce another option.
For example, this packet sets option "1" (clone events) on thread
p1000.2345:
QThreadOptions;1:p1000.2345
and this clears options for all threads of process 1000, and then sets
option "1" (clone events) on thread p1000.2345:
QThreadOptions;0:p1000.-1;1:p1000.2345
This clears options of all threads of all processes:
QThreadOptions;0
The target reports the set of supported options by including
"QThreadOptions=<supported options>" in its qSupported response.
infrun is then tweaked to enable GDB_THREAD_OPTION_CLONE when stepping
over a breakpoint.
Unlike PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, fork/vfork/clone children do NOT inherit
their parent's thread options. This is so that GDB can send e.g.,
"QThreadOptions;0;1:TID" without worrying about threads it doesn't
know about yet.
Documentation for this new remote protocol feature is included in a
documentation patch later in the series.

I noticed that sometimes the value returned by $_inferior_thread_count
can become out of sync with the actual thread count of the inferior,
and will disagree with the number of threads reported by 'info
threads'. This commit fixes this issue.
The cause of the problem is that 'info threads' includes a call to
update_thread_list, this can be seen in print_thread_info_1 in
thread.c, while $_inferior_thread_count doesn't include a similar
call, see the function inferior_thread_count_make_value also in
thread.c.
Of course, this is only a problem when GDB is running on a target that
relies on update_thread_list calls to learn about new threads,
e.g. remote or extended-remote targets. Native targets generally
learn about new threads as soon as they appear and will not have this
problem.
I ran into this issue when writing a test for the next commit which
uses inferior function calls to add an remove threads from an
inferior. But for testing I've made use of non-stop mode and
asynchronous inferior execution; by reading the inferior state I can
know when a new thread has been created, at which point I can print
$_inferior_thread_count while the inferior is still running. This is
important, if I stop the inferior then GDB will pass through an
update_thread_list call in the normal stop code, which will
synchronise the thread list, after which $_inferior_thread_count will
report the correct value.
With this change in place $_inferior_thread_count is now correct.

Currently, each target backend is responsible for printing "[Thread

This commit fixes this by moving the thread exit printing to common
code instead, triggered from within delete_thread (or rather,
set_thread_exited).
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).

Always emit =thread-exited notifications, even if silent
The function mi_interp::on_thread_exited (or mi_thread_exit as the

parameter.
As a result there is no difference between inferior::clear_thread_list
with silent true or false, because:
- None of the interpreter ::on_thread_exited functions rely on the
silent parameter, and
- None of GDB's thread_exit observers rely on the silent parameter

I noticed that breakpoint::print_recreate_thread was printing the
global thread-id. This function is used to implement the 'save
breakpoints' command, and should be writing out suitable CLI commands
for recreating the current breakpoints. The CLI does not use global
thread-ids, but instead uses the inferior specific thread-ids,
e.g. "2.1".
After some discussion on the mailing list it was suggested that the
most consistent solution would be for the saved breakpoints file to
always contain the inferior-qualified thread-id, so the file would
include "thread 1.1" instead of just "thread 1", even when there is
only a single inferior.
So, this commit adds print_full_thread_id, which is just like the
existing print_thread_id, only it always prints the inferior-qualified
thread-id.
I then update the existing print_thread_id to make use of this new
function, and finally, I update breakpoint::print_recreate_thread to
also use this new function.
There's a multi-inferior test that confirms the saved breakpoints file
correctly includes the fully-qualified thread-id, and I've also
updated the single inferior test gdb.base/save-bp.exp to have it
validate that the saved breakpoints file includes the
inferior-qualified thread-id, even for this single inferior case.

When a thread-specific breakpoint is deleted as a result of the
specific thread exiting the function remove_threaded_breakpoints is
called which sets the disposition of the breakpoint to
disp_del_at_next_stop and sets the breakpoint number to 0. Setting
the breakpoint number to zero has the effect of hiding the breakpoint
from the user. We also print a message indicating that the breakpoint
has been deleted.
It was brought to my attention during a review of another patch[1]
that setting a breakpoints number to zero will suppress the MI
breakpoint-deleted notification for that breakpoint, and indeed, this
can be seen to be true, in delete_breakpoint, if the breakpoint number
is zero, then GDB will not notify the breakpoint_deleted observer.
It seems wrong that a user created, thread-specific breakpoint, will
have a =breakpoint-created notification, but will not have a
=breakpoint-deleted notification. I suspect that this is a bug.

The First Problem
-----------------
During my initial testing I wanted to see how GDB handled the
breakpoint after it's number was set to zero. To do this I created
the testcase gdb.threads/thread-bp-deleted.exp. This test creates a
worker thread, which immediately exits. After the worker thread has
exited the main thread spins in a loop.
In GDB I break once the worker thread has been created and place a
thread-specific breakpoint, then use 'continue&' to resume the
inferior in non-stop mode. The worker thread then exits, but the main
thread never stops - instead it sits in the spin. I then tried to use
'maint info breakpoints' to see what GDB thought of the
thread-specific breakpoint.
Unfortunately, GDB crashed like this:
(gdb) continue&
Continuing.
(gdb) [Thread 0x7ffff7c5d700 (LWP 1202458) exited]
Thread-specific breakpoint 3 deleted - thread 2 no longer in the thread list.
maint info breakpoints
... snip some output ...

... etc ...
As the thread-specific breakpoint is set to disp_del_at_next_stop, and
GDB hasn't stopped yet, then the breakpoint still exists in the global
breakpoint list.
The breakpoint will not show in 'info breakpoints' as its number is
zero, but it will show in 'maint info breakpoints'.
As GDB prints the breakpoint, the thread-id for the breakpoint is
printed as part of the 'stop only in thread ...' line. Printing the
thread-id involves calling find_thread_global_id to convert the global
thread-id into a thread_info*. Then calling print_thread_id to
convert the thread_info* into a string.
The problem is that find_thread_global_id returns nullptr as the
thread for the thread-specific breakpoint has exited. The
print_thread_id assumes it will be passed a non-nullptr. As a result
GDB crashes.
In this commit I've added an assert to print_thread_id (gdb/thread.c)
to check that the pointed passed in is not nullptr. This assert would
have triggered in the above case before GDB crashed.
MI Notifications: The Dangers Of Changing A Breakpoint's Number
---------------------------------------------------------------
Currently the delete_breakpoint function doesn't trigger the
breakpoint_deleted observer for any breakpoint with the number zero.
There is a comment explaining why this is the case in the code; it's
something about watchpoints. But I did consider just removing the 'is
the number zero' guard and always triggering the breakpoint_deleted
observer, figuring that I'd then fix the watchpoint issue some other
way.
But I realised this wasn't going to be good enough. When the MI
notification was delivered the number would be zero, so any frontend
parsing the notifications would not be able to match
=breakpoint-deleted notification to the earlier =breakpoint-created
notification.
What this means is that, at the point the breakpoint_deleted observer
is called, the breakpoint's number must be correct.
MI Notifications: The Dangers Of Delaying Deletion
--------------------------------------------------
The test I used to expose the above crash also brought another problem
to my attention. In the above test we used 'continue&' to resume,
after which a thread exited, but the inferior didn't stop. Recreating
the same test in the MI looks like this:
-break-insert -p 2 main
^done,bkpt={number="2",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",...<snip>...}
(gdb)
-exec-continue
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)
~"[Thread 0x7ffff7c5d700 (LWP 987038) exited]\n"
=thread-exited,id="2",group-id="i1"
~"Thread-specific breakpoint 2 deleted - thread 2 no longer in the thread list.\n"
At this point the we have a single thread left, which is still
running:
-thread-info
^done,threads=[{id="1",target-id="Thread 0x7ffff7c5eb80 (LWP 987035)",name="thread-bp-delet",state="running",core="4"}],current-thread-id="1"
(gdb)
Notice that we got the =thread-exited notification from GDB as soon as
the thread exited. We also saw the CLI line from GDB, the line
explaining that breakpoint 2 was deleted. But, as expected, we didn't
see the =breakpoint-deleted notification.
I say "as expected" because the number was set to zero. But, even if
the number was not set to zero we still wouldn't see the
notification. The MI notification is driven by the breakpoint_deleted
observer, which is only called when we actually delete the breakpoint,
which is only done the next time GDB stops.
Now, maybe this is fine. The notification is delivered a little
late. But remember, by setting the number to zero the breakpoint will
be hidden from the user, for example, the breakpoint is removed from
the MI's -break-info command output.
This means that GDB is in a position where the breakpoint doesn't show
up in the breakpoint table, but a =breakpoint-deleted notification has
not yet been sent out. This doesn't seem right to me.
What this means is that, when the thread exits, we should immediately
be sending out the =breakpoint-deleted notification. We should not
wait for GDB to next stop before sending the notification.
The Solution
------------
My proposed solution is this; in remove_threaded_breakpoints, instead
of setting the disposition to disp_del_at_next_stop and setting the
number to zero, we now just call delete_breakpoint directly.
The notification will now be sent out immediately; as soon as the
thread exits.
As the number has not changed when delete_breakpoint is called, the
notification will have the correct number.
And as the breakpoint is immediately removed from the breakpoint list,
we no longer need to worry about 'maint info breakpoints' trying to
print the thread-id for an exited thread.
My only concern is that calling delete_breakpoint directly seems so
obvious that I wonder why the original patch (that added
remove_threaded_breakpoints) didn't take this approach. This code was
added in commit 49fa26b0411d, but the commit message offers no clues
to why this approach was taken, and the original email thread offers
no insights either[2]. There are no test regressions after making
this change, so I'm hopeful that this is going to be fine.
[2] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2013-September/106493.html
The Complication
----------------
Of course, it couldn't be that simple.
The script gdb.python/py-finish-breakpoint.exp had some regressions
during testing.
The problem was with the FinishBreakpoint.out_of_scope callback
implementation. This callback is supposed to trigger whenever the
FinishBreakpoint goes out of scope; and this includes when the thread
for the breakpoint exits.
The problem I ran into is the Python FinishBreakpoint implementation.
Specifically, after this change I was loosing some of the out_of_scope
calls.
The problem is that the out_of_scope call (of which I'm interested) is
triggered from the inferior_exit observer. Before my change the
observers were called in this order:
thread_exit
inferior_exit
breakpoint_deleted
The inferior_exit would trigger the out_of_scope call.
After my change the breakpoint_deleted notification (for
thread-specific breakpoints) occurs earlier, as soon as the
thread-exits, so now the order is:
thread_exit
breakpoint_deleted
inferior_exit
Currently, after the breakpoint_deleted call the Python object
associated with the breakpoint is released, so, when we get to the
inferior_exit observer, there's no longer a Python object to call the
out_of_scope method on.
My solution is to follow the model for how bpfinishpy_pre_stop_hook
and bpfinishpy_post_stop_hook are called, this is done from
gdbpy_breakpoint_cond_says_stop in py-breakpoint.c.
I've now added a new bpfinishpy_pre_delete_hook
gdbpy_breakpoint_deleted in py-breakpoint.c, and from this new hook
function I check and where needed call the out_of_scope method.
With this fix in place I now see the
gdb.python/py-finish-breakpoint.exp test fully passing again.

This helps resolve some cyclic include problem later in the series.
The only language-related thing frame.h needs is enum language, and that

Doing so reveals that a bunch of files were relying on frame.h to

Now that filtered and unfiltered output can be treated identically, we
can unify the printf family of functions. This is done under the name
"gdb_printf". Most of this patch was written by script.
|
|
A number of spots call printf_unfiltered only because they are in code
that should not be interrupted by the pager. However, I believe these
cases are all handled by infrun's blanket ban on paging, and so can be
converted to the default (_filtered) API.
After this patch, I think all the remaining _unfiltered calls are ones
that really ought to be. A few -- namely in complete_command -- could
be replaced by a scoped assignment to pagination_enabled, but for the
remainder, the code seems simple enough like this.

While working on function calls, I realized that the thread_fsm member
of struct thread_info is a raw pointer to a resource it owns. This
commit changes the type of the thread_fsm member to a std::unique_ptr in
order to signify this ownership relationship and slightly ease resource
management (no need to manually call delete).
To ensure consistent use, the field is made a private member
(m_thread_fsm). The setter method (set_thread_fsm) can then check
that it is incorrect to associate a FSM to a thread_info object if
another one is already in place. This is ensured by an assertion.
The function run_inferior_call takes an argument as a pointer to a
call_thread_fsm and installs it in it in a thread_info instance. Also
change this function's signature to accept a unique_ptr in order to
signify that the ownership of the call_thread_fsm is transferred during
the call.
No user visible change expected after this commit.
Tested on x86_64-linux with no regression observed.

Add new commands:

Prints additional debug information relating to thread creation and
deletion.
GDB already announces when threads are created of course.... most of
the time, but sometimes threads are added silently, in which case this
debug message is the only mechanism to see the thread being added.
Also, though GDB does announce when a thread exits, it doesn't
announce when the thread object is deleted, I've added a debug message
for that.
Additionally, having message printed through the debug system will
cause the messages to be nested to an appropriate depth when other
debug sub-systems are turned on (especially things like `infrun` and
`lin-lwp`).

I stumbled on a bug caused by the fact that a code path read
target_waitstatus::value::sig (expecting it to contain a gdb_signal
value) while target_waitstatus::kind was TARGET_WAITKIND_FORKED. This
meant that the active union field was in fact
target_waitstatus::value::related_pid, and contained a ptid. The read
signal value was therefore garbage, and that caused GDB to crash soon
after. Or, since that GDB was built with ubsan, this nice error
message:
/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/linux-nat.c:1271:12: runtime error: load of value 2686365, which is not a valid value for type 'gdb_signal'
Despite being a large-ish change, I think it would be nice to make
target_waitstatus safe against that kind of bug. As already done
elsewhere (e.g. dynamic_prop), validate that the type of value read from
the union matches what is supposed to be the active field.
- Make the kind and value of target_waitstatus private.
- Make the kind initialized to TARGET_WAITKIND_IGNORE on
target_waitstatus construction. This is what most users appear to do
explicitly.
- Add setters, one for each kind. Each setter takes as a parameter the
data associated to that kind, if any. This makes it impossible to
forget to attach the associated data.
- Add getters, one for each associated data type. Each getter
validates that the data type fetched by the user matches the wait
status kind.
- Change "integer" to "exit_status", "related_pid" to "child_ptid",
just because that's more precise terminology.
- Fix all users.
That last point is semi-mechanical. There are a lot of obvious changes,
but some less obvious ones. For example, it's not possible to set the
kind at some point and the associated data later, as some users did.
But in any case, the intent of the code should not change in this patch.
This was tested on x86-64 Linux (unix, native-gdbserver and
native-extended-gdbserver boards). It was built-tested on x86-64
FreeBSD, NetBSD, MinGW and macOS. The rest of the changes to native
files was done as a best effort. If I forgot any place to update in
these files, it should be easy to fix (unless the change happens to
reveal an actual bug).

The pattern for using execute_command_to_string is:
...
std::string output;
output = execute_fn_to_string (fn, term_out);
...
This results in a problem when using it in a try/catch:
...
try
{
output = execute_fn_to_string (fn, term_out)
}
catch (const gdb_exception &e)
{
/* Use output. */
}
...
If an expection was thrown during execute_fn_to_string, then the output
remains unassigned, while it could be worthwhile to known what output was
generated by gdb before the expection was thrown.
Fix this by returning the string using a parameter instead:
...
execute_fn_to_string (output, fn, term_out)
...
Also add a variant without string parameter, to support places where the
function is used while ignoring the result:
...
execute_fn_to_string (fn, term_out)

This started out as changing thread_info::name to a unique_xmalloc_ptr.
That showed that almost all users of that field had the same logic to
get a thread's name: use thread_info::name if non-nullptr, else ask the

the field private (rename to m_name) and add some accessors.

Currently the stop_pc field of thread_suspect_state is a CORE_ADDR and
when we want to indicate that there is no stop_pc available we set
this field back to a special value.
There are actually two special values used, in post_create_inferior
the stop_pc is set to 0. This is a little unfortunate, there are
plenty of embedded targets where 0 is a valid pc value. The more
common special value for stop_pc though, is set in
thread_info::set_executing, where the value (~(CORE_ADDR) 0) is used.
This commit changes things so that the stop_pc is instead a
gdb::optional. We can now explicitly reset the field to an
uninitialised state, we also have asserts that we don't read the
stop_pc when its in an uninitialised state (both in
gdbsupport/gdb_optional.h, when compiling with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG
defined, and in thread_info::stop_pc).
One situation where a thread will not have a stop_pc value is when the
thread is stopped as a consequence of GDB being in all stop mode, and
some other thread stopped at an interesting event. When GDB brings
all the other threads to a stop those other threads will not have a
stop_pc set (thus avoiding an unnecessary read of the pc register).
Previously, when GDB passed through handle_one (in infrun.c) the
threads executing flag was set to false and the stop_pc field was left
unchanged, i.e. it would (previous) have been left as ~0.
Now, handle_one leaves the stop_pc with no value.
This caused a problem when we later try to set these threads running
again, in proceed() we compare the current pc with the cached stop_pc.
If the thread was stopped via handle_one then the stop_pc would have
been left as ~0, and the compare (in proceed) would (likely) fail.
Now however, this compare tries to read the stop_pc when it has no
value and this would trigger an assert.
To resolve this I've added thread_info::stop_pc_p() which returns true
if the thread has a cached stop_pc. We should only ever call
thread_info::stop_pc() if we know that there is a cached stop_pc,
however, this doesn't mean that every call to thread_info::stop_pc()
needs to be guarded with a call to thread_info::stop_pc_p(), in most
cases we know that the thread we are looking at stopped due to some
interesting event in that thread, and so, we know that the stop_pc is
valid.
After running the testsuite I've seen no other situations where
stop_pc is read uninitialised.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

Rename thread_info::executing to thread_info::m_executing, and make it
private. Add a new get/set member functions, and convert GDB to make
use of these.
The only real change of interest in this patch is in thread.c where I
have deleted the helper function set_executing_thread, and now just
use the new set function thread_info::set_executing. However, the old
helper function set_executing_thread included some code to reset the
thread's stop_pc, so I moved this code into the new function
thread_info::set_executing. However, I don't believe there is
anywhere that this results in a change of behaviour, previously the
executing flag was always set true through a call to
set_executing_thread anyway.

If I debug a single-thread program and look at the infrun debug logs, I
see:

That makes no sense... turns out there's a buglet in
thread_step_over_chain_length, "num" should be initialized to 0. I
think this bug is a leftover from an earlier version of the code (not
merged upstream) that manually walked the list, where the first item was

When debugging a large number of threads (thousands), looking up a
thread by ptid_t using the inferior::thread_list linked list can add up.
Add inferior::thread_map, an std::unordered_map indexed by ptid_t, and
change the find_thread_ptid function to look up a thread using
std::unordered_map::find, instead of iterating on all of the
inferior's threads. This should make it faster to look up a thread

status
Looking up threads that are both resumed and have a pending wait
status to report is something that we do quite often in the fast path
and is expensive if there are many threads, since it currently requires
walking whole thread lists.
The first instance is in maybe_set_commit_resumed_all_targets. This is
called after handling each event in fetch_inferior_event, to see if we
should ask targets to commit their resumed threads or not. If at least
one thread is resumed but has a pending wait status, we don't ask the
targets to commit their resumed threads, because we want to consume and
handle the pending wait status first.
The second instance is in random_pending_event_thread, where we want to
select a random thread among all those that are resumed and have a
pending wait status. This is called every time we try to consume
events, to see if there are any pending events that we we want to
consume, before asking the targets for more events.
To allow optimizing these cases, maintain a per-process-target list of
threads that are resumed and have a pending wait status.
In maybe_set_commit_resumed_all_targets, we'll be able to check in O(1)
if there are any such threads simply by checking whether the list is
empty.
In random_pending_event_thread, we'll be able to use that list, which
will be quicker than iterating the list of threads, especially when
there are no resumed with pending wait status threads.
About implementation details: using the new setters on class
thread_info, it's relatively easy to maintain that list. Any time the
"resumed" or "pending wait status" property is changed, we check whether
that should cause the thread to be added or removed from the list.
In set_thread_exited, we try to remove the thread from the list, because
keeping an exited thread in that list would make no sense (especially if
the thread is freed). My first implementation assumed that a process
stratum target was always present when set_thread_exited is called.
That's however, not the case: in some cases, targets unpush themselves
from an inferior and then call "exit_inferior", which exits all the
threads. If the target is unpushed before set_thread_exited is called
on the threads, it means we could mistakenly leave some threads in the
list. I tried to see how hard it would be to make it such that targets
have to exit all threads before unpushing themselves from the inferior
(that would seem logical to me, we don't want threads belonging to an
inferior that has no process target). That seemed quite difficult and
not worth the time at the moment. Instead, I changed
inferior::unpush_target to remove all threads of that inferior from the
list.
As of this patch, the list is not used, this is done in the subsequent
patches.
The debug messages in process-stratum-target.c need to print some ptids.
However, they can't use target_pid_to_str to print them without
introducing a dependency on the current inferior (the current inferior
is used to get the current target stack). For debug messages, I find it
clearer to print the spelled out ptid anyway (the pid, lwp and tid
values). Add a ptid_t::to_string method that returns a string
representation of the ptid that is meant for debug messages, a bit like
we already have frame_id::to_string.

A following patch will want to take some action when a pending wait
status is set on or removed from a thread. Add a getter and a setter on
thread_info for the pending waitstatus, so that we can add some code in
the setter later.
The thing is, the pending wait status field is in the
thread_suspend_state, along with other fields that we need to backup
before and restore after the thread does an inferior function call.
Therefore, make the thread_suspend_state member private
(thread_info::suspend becomes thread_info::m_suspend), and add getters /
setters for all of its fields:
- pending wait status
- stop signal
- stop reason
- stop pc
For the pending wait status, add the additional has_pending_waitstatus
and clear_pending_waitstatus methods.
I think this makes the thread_info interface a bit nicer, because we
now access the fields as:
thread->stop_pc ()
rather than
thread->suspend.stop_pc
The stop_pc field being in the `suspend` structure is an implementation
detail of thread_info that callers don't need to be aware of.
For the backup / restore of the thread_suspend_state structure, add
save_suspend_to and restore_suspend_from methods. You might wonder why
`save_suspend_to`, as opposed to a simple getter like
thread_suspend_state &suspend ();
I want to make it clear that this is to be used only for backing up and
restoring the suspend state, _not_ to access fields like:
thread->suspend ()->stop_pc
Adding some getters / setters allows adding some assertions. I find
that this helps understand how things are supposed to work. Add:
- When getting the pending status (pending_waitstatus method), ensure
that there is a pending status.
- When setting a pending status (set_pending_waitstatus method), ensure
there is no pending status.
There is one case I found where this wasn't true - in
remote_target::process_initial_stop_replies - which needed adjustments
to respect that contract. I think it's because
process_initial_stop_replies is kind of (ab)using the
thread_info::suspend::waitstatus to store some statuses temporarily, for
its internal use (statuses it doesn't intent on leaving pending).
process_initial_stop_replies pulls out stop replies received during the
initial connection using target_wait. It always stores the received
event in `evthread->suspend.waitstatus`. But it only sets
waitstatus_pending_p, if it deems the event interesting enough to leave
pending, to be reported to the core:
if (ws.kind != TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
|| ws.value.sig != GDB_SIGNAL_0)
evthread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p = 1;
It later uses this flag a bit below, to choose which thread to make the
"selected" one:
if (selected == NULL
&& thread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p)
selected = thread;
And ultimately that's used if the user-visible mode is all-stop, so that
we print the stop for that interesting thread:
/* In all-stop, we only print the status of one thread, and leave
others with their status pending. */
if (!non_stop)
{
thread_info *thread = selected;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = lowest_stopped;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = first;
print_one_stopped_thread (thread);
}
But in any case (all-stop or non-stop), print_one_stopped_thread needs
to access the waitstatus value of these threads that don't have a
pending waitstatus (those that had TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0). This doesn't work with the assertions I've
put.
So, change the code to only set the thread's wait status if it is an
interesting one that we are going to leave pending. If the thread
stopped due to a non-interesting event (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0), don't store it. Adjust print_one_stopped_thread to
understand that if a thread has no pending waitstatus, it's because it
stopped with TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED + GDB_SIGNAL_0.
The call to set_last_target_status also uses the pending waitstatus.
However, given that the pending waitstatus for the thread may have been
cleared in print_one_stopped_thread (and that there might not even be a
pending waitstatus in the first place, as explained above), it is no
longer possible to do it at this point. To fix that, move the call to
set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread. I think this will
preserve the existing behavior, because set_last_target_status is
currently using the current thread's wait status. And the current
thread is the last one for which print_one_stopped_thread is called. So
by calling set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread, we'll get
the same result. set_last_target_status will possibly be called
multiple times, but only the last call will matter. It just means
possibly more calls to set_last_target_status, but those are cheap.

A following patch will want to do things when a thread's resumed state
changes. Make the `resumed` field private (renamed to `m_resumed`) and
add a getter and a setter for it. The following patch in question will
therefore be able to add some code to the setter.

The threads that need a step-over are currently linked using an
hand-written intrusive doubly-linked list, so that seems a very good
candidate for intrusive_list, convert it.
For this, we have a use case of appending a list to another one (in
start_step_over). Based on the std::list and Boost APIs, add a splice
method. However, only support splicing the other list at the end of the
`this` list, since that's all we need.
Add explicit default assignment operators to
reference_to_pointer_iterator, which are otherwise implicitly deleted.
This is needed because to define thread_step_over_list_safe_iterator, we
wrap reference_to_pointer_iterator inside a basic_safe_iterator, and
basic_safe_iterator needs to be able to copy-assign the wrapped
iterator. The move-assignment operator is therefore not needed, only
the copy-assignment operator is. But for completeness, add both.
