On Cygwin, with "attach PID":
- GDB first tries to interpret PID as a Windows native PID, and tries
to attach to that.
- if the attach fails, GDB then tries to interpret the PID as a
Cygwin PID, and attach to that.
If converting the user-provided PID from a Cygwin PID to a Windows PID
fails, you get this:
(gdb) attach 12345
Can't attach to process 0 (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.)
Note "process 0".
With the fix in this commit, we'll now get:
(gdb) attach 12345
Can't attach to process 12345 (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.)
I noticed this while looking at gdb.log after running
gdb.base/attach.exp on Cygwin.

On Cygwin, gdb.base/attach.exp exposes that an "attach" after a
previously failed "attach" hangs:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to digits-starting nonsense is prohibited
attach 0
Can't attach to process 0 (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to nonexistent process is prohibited
attach 10644
FAIL: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: first attach (timeout)
The problem is that windows_nat_target::attach always returns success
even if the attach fails. When we return success, the helper thread
begins waiting for events (which will never come), and thus the next
attach deadlocks on the do_synchronously call within
windows_nat_target::attach.
"run" has the same problem, which is exposed by the new
gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp testcase added in a following patch:
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
Error creating process .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox, (error 6: The handle is invalid.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 1
run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
FAIL: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 2 (timeout)
The problem here is the same, except that this time it is
windows_nat_target::create_inferior that returns the incorrect result.
This commit fixes both the "attach" and "run" paths, and the latter
both the Cygwin and MinGW paths. The tests mentioned above now pass
on Cygwin. Confirmed the fixes manually for MinGW GDB.

Most files including gdbcmd.h currently rely on it to access things
actually declared in cli/cli-cmds.h (setlist, showlist, etc). To make
things easy, replace all includes of gdbcmd.h with includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h. This might lead to some unused includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h, but it's harmless, and much faster than going through
the 170 or so files by hand.

While testing a WIP Cygwin GDB that supports non-stop, I noticed that
gdb.threads/attach-non-stop.exp exposes that this:
(gdb) attach PID&
...
(gdb) detach
... hangs.
And it turns out that it hangs in all-stop as well. This commits
fixes that.
After "attach &", the target is set running, we've called
ContinueDebugEvent and the process_thread thread is waiting for
WaitForDebugEvent events. It is the equivalent of "attach; c&".
In windows_nat_target::detach, the first thing we do is
unconditionally call windows_continue (for ContinueDebugEvent), which
blocks in do_synchronously, until the process_thread sees an event out
of WaitForDebugEvent. Unless the inferior happens to run into a
breakpoint, etc., then this hangs indefinitely.
If we've already called ContinueDebugEvent earlier, then we shouldn't
be calling it again in ::detach.
Still in windows_nat_target::detach, we have an interesting issue that
ends up being the bulk of the patch -- only the process_thread thread
can call DebugActiveProcessStop, but if it is blocked in
WaitForDebugEvent, we need to somehow force it to break out of it.
The only way to do that, is to force the inferior to do something that
causes WaitForDebugEvent to return some event.
This patch uses CreateRemoteThread to do it, which results in
WaitForDebugEvent reporting CREATE_THREAD_DEBUG_EVENT. We then
terminate the injected thread before it has a chance to run any
userspace code.
Note that Win32 functions like DebugBreakProcess and
GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent would also inject a new thread in the
inferior. I first used DebugBreakProcess, but that is actually more
complicated to use, because we'd have to be sure to consume the
breakpoint event before detaching, otherwise the inferior would likely
die due a breakpoint exception being raised with no debugger around to
intercept it.
See the new break_out_process_thread method.
So the fix has two parts:
- Keep track of whether we've called ContinueDebugEvent and the
process_thread thread is waiting for events, or whether
WaitForDebugEvent already returned an event.
- In windows_nat_target::detach, if the process_thread thread is
waiting for events, unblock out of its WaitForDebugEvent, before
proceeding with the actual detach.
New test included. Passes cleanly on GNU/Linux native and gdbserver,
and also passes cleanly on Cygwin and MinGW, with the fix. Before the
fix, it would hang and fail with a timeout.

While working on Windows non-stop mode, I managed to introduce a bug
that led to fake_create_process being called. That then resulted in
GDB crashes later on, because fake_create_process added a thread with
an incorrect ptid for this target. It is putting dwThreadId in the
tid field of the ptid instead of on the lwp field. This is fixed by
this patch.

There is no need to limit shared library path sizes to
SO_NAME_MAX_PATH_SIZE nowadays. windows_solib::name and
windows_solib::original_name are std::strings nowadays, and so are
solib::so_name and solib::so_original_name in the core solib code.
This commit reworks the code to remove that limit. This also fixes a
leak where we were not releasing 'rname' in the realpath branch if the
'rname' string was larger than SO_NAME_MAX_PATH_SIZE.
Note: I tested the cygwin_conv_path with a manual hack to force that
path, and then stepping through the code. You only get to that path
if Windows doesn't report an absolute path for ntdll.dll, and on my
machine (running Windows 10), it always does.

There are two separate #ifndef __CYGWIN__/#else/#endif sections in the
windows_make_so function with 3 lines of shared code separating them.
I find this makes the code harder to understand than necessary.
AFAICS, there is no reason those three shared lines need to be after
the first #ifdef block. There is no early return, nor are 'load_addr'
nor 'name' modified.
This commit moves that shared code to the top of the function, and
then combines the two #ifndef sections.

Simplify Cygwin signal handling by dropping the special way of getting
inferior context after a Cygwin signal.
I think the reason this existed was because previously we were not
able to unwind through the alternate stack used by _sigfe frames, so
without the hint of the "user" code IP, the backtrace from a signal
was unusable.
Now we can unwind through _sigfe frames, drop all this complexity.
(Restoring this specially obtained context to the inferior (as the
code currently does) skips over the actual signal delivery and
handling. Cygwin has carried for a long time a patch which clears the
ContextFlags in the signal context, so we never attempt to restore it
to the inferior, but that interfers with gdb's ability to modify that
context e.g. if it decides it wants to turn on FLAG_TRACE_BIT.)

My earlier attempt to mask the segment registers in gdbserver for
Windows introduced some bugs. That patch is here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-December/205306.html
The problem turned out to be that these fields in the Windows
'CONTEXT' type are just 16 bits, so while masking the values on read
is fine, writing the truncated values back then causes zeros to be
written to some subsequent field.
This patch cleans this up by arranging never to write too much data to
a field.
I also noticed that two register numbers here were never updated for
the 64-bit port. This patch fixes this as well, and renames the "FCS"
register to follow gdb.
Finally, this patch applies the same treatment to windows-nat.c.

This changes gdb to use the C++17 [[fallthrough]] attribute rather

This was mostly done by script, but I neglected a few spellings and so

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.

Remove get_current_regcache, inlining the call to get_thread_regcache in
callers. When possible, pass the right thread_info object known from
the local context. Otherwise, fall back to passing `inferior_thread ()`.
This makes the reference to global context bubble up one level, a small
step towards the long term goal of reducing the number of references to
global context (or rather, moving those references as close as possible
to the top of the call tree).
No behavior change expected.

This function is just a wrapper around the current inferior's gdbarch.
I find that having that wrapper just obscures where the arch is coming
from, and that it's often used as "I don't know which arch to use so
I'll use this magical target_gdbarch function that gets me an arch" when
the arch should in fact come from something in the context (a thread,
objfile, symbol, etc). I think that removing it and inlining
`current_inferior ()->arch ()` everywhere will make it a bit clearer
where that arch comes from and will trigger people into reflecting
whether this is the right place to get the arch or not.

This started with me running into this comment in symfile.c:
/* FIXME, should use print_sys_errmsg but it's not filtered. */
gdb_printf (_("`%ps' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.\n"),
styled_string (file_name_style.style (), filename));
In this particular case I think I disagree with the comment; I think
the output should be a warning rather than just a message printed to
gdb_stdout, I think when the executable, or some other objfile that is
currently being debugged, disappears from disk, this is likely an
unexpected situation, and worth warning the user about.
So, in theory, I could just call print_sys_errmsg and remove the
comment, but that would mean loosing the filename styling in the
output... so in the end I remove the comment and updated the code to
call warning.
But that got me looking at print_sys_errmsg and how it's used.
Currently the function takes a string and an errno, and prints, to
stderr, the string followed by the result of calling strerror on the
errno.
In some places the string passed to print_sys_errmsg is just a
filename, and this is used when something goes wrong. In these cases,
I think calling warning rather than gdb_printf to gdb_stderr, would be
better, and in fact, in a couple of places we manually print a
"warning" prefix, and then call print_sys_errmsg. And so, for these
users I have added a new function warning_filename_and_errno, which
takes a filename, which is printed with styling, and an errno, which
is passed through strerror and the resulting string printed. This new
function calls warning to print its output. I then updated some of
the print_sys_errmsg users to use this new function.
Some other users of print_sys_errmsg are also emitting what is clearly
a warning, however, the string being passed in is more than just a
filename, so the new warning_filename_and_errno function can't be
used, it would style the whole string. For these users I have
switched to calling warning directly, this allows me to style the
warning message correctly.
Finally, in inflow.c there is one last call to print_sys_errmsg, in
this case I just inlined the definition of print_sys_errmsg. This is
a really weird case, as after printing this message GDB just does a
hard exit. This is pretty old code, dating back to the initial GDB
import, I guess it should be updated to call error() maybe, but I'm
reluctant to make this change as part of this commit, just in case
there's some reason why we can't throw an error at this point.
With that done there are now no users of print_sys_errmsg, and so the
old function can be removed.
While I was doing all of the above I added some additional filename
styling in soure.c, this is in an else block where the if contained
the print_sys_errmsg call, so these felt related.
And finally, while I was updating the uses of print_sys_errmsg in
procfs.c, I noticed that we used a static errmsg buffer to format some
error strings. As the above changes got rid of one of the users of
errmsg I also removed the other two users, and the static buffer.
There were a couple of tests that depended on the existing output
message format that needed updating. In one case we gained an extra
'warning: ' prefix, and in the other 'Warning: ' becomes 'warning: ',
I think in both cases the new output is an improvement.

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).

As Hannes pointed out, the Windows target-async patches broke C-c
handling there. Looking into this, I found a few oddities, fixed
here.
First, windows_nat_target::interrupt calls GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent.
I think this event can be ignored by the inferior, so it's not a great
way to interrupt. Instead, using DebugBreakProcess (or a more
complicated thing for Wow64) seems better.
Second, windows_nat_target did not implement the pass_ctrlc method.
Implementing this lets us remove the special code to call
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and instead integrate into gdb's approach to C-c
handling. I believe that this should also fix the race that's
described in the comment that's being removed.
Initially, I thought a simpler version of this patch would work.
However, I think what happens is that some other library (I'm not sure
what) calls SetConsoleCtrlHandler while gdb is running, and this
intercepts and handles C-c -- so that the gdb SIGINT handler is not
called. C-break continues to work, presumably because whatever
handler is installed ignores it.
This patch works around this issue by ensuring that the gdb handler
always comes first.

This patch fixes a static initialization order problem in

The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.
The non-mechanical changes are in gdbsupport/errors.h,
gdbsupport/gdb_assert.h, and gdb/gdbarch.py.

This implements target async for Windows. The basic idea is to have
the worker thread block in WaitForDebugEvent, then notify the event
loop when an event is seen. In a few situations, this blocking
behavior is undesirable, so the functions passed to do_synchronously
are changed to return a boolean indicating which behavior is needed.
|
|
On Windows, certain debugging APIs can only be called from the thread
that started (or attached) to the inferior. Also, there is no way on
Windows to wait for a debug event in addition to other events.
Therefore, in order to implement target async for Windows, gdb will
have to call some functions in a worker thread.
This patch implements the worker thread and moves the necessary
operations there. Target async isn't yet implemented, so this patch
does not cause any visible changes.

When working on windows-nat.c, it's useful to see an error message in
addition to the error number given by GetLastError. This patch moves
strwinerror from gdbserver to gdbsupport, and then updates
windows-nat.c to use it. A couple of minor changes to strwinerror
(constify the return type and use the ARRAY_SIZE macro) are also
included.
|
|
windows_nat_target::detach has a variable 'detached' that is only set
after a call to 'error'. However, this can't happen because 'error'
throws an exception.
This patch removes the dead code.

I noticed a typo in a printf in windows-nat.c. This fixes it.

I built GDB for all targets on a x86-64/GNU-Linux system, and
then (accidentally) passed GDB a RISC-V binary, and asked GDB to "run"
the binary on the native target. I got this error:
(gdb) show architecture
The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "i386").
(gdb) file /tmp/hello.rv32.exe
Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.rv32.exe...
(gdb) show architecture
The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "riscv:rv32").
(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/hello.rv32.exe
../../src/gdb/i387-tdep.c:596: internal-error: i387_supply_fxsave: Assertion `tdep->st0_regnum >= I386_ST0_REGNUM' failed.
What's going on here is this; initially the architecture is i386, this
is based on the default architecture, which is set based on the native
target. After loading the RISC-V executable the architecture of the
current inferior is updated based on the architecture of the
executable.
When we "run", GDB does a fork & exec, with the inferior being
controlled through ptrace. GDB sees an initial stop from the inferior
as soon as the inferior comes to life. In response to this stop GDB
ends up calling save_stop_reason (linux-nat.c), which ends up trying
to read register from the inferior, to do this we end up calling
target_ops::fetch_registers, which, for the x86-64 native target,
calls amd64_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers.
After this I eventually end up in i387_supply_fxsave, different x86
based targets will end in different functions to fetch registers, but
it doesn't really matter which function we end up in, the problem is
this line, which is repeated in many places:
i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = (i386_gdbarch_tdep *) gdbarch_tdep (arch);
The problem here is that the ARCH in this line comes from the current
inferior, which, as we discussed above, will be a RISC-V gdbarch, the
tdep field will actually be of type riscv_gdbarch_tdep, not
i386_gdbarch_tdep. After this cast we are relying on undefined
behaviour, in my case I happen to trigger an assert, but this might
not always be the case.
The thing I tried that exposed this problem was of course, trying to
start an executable of the wrong architecture on a native target. I
don't think that the correct solution for this problem is to detect,
at the point of cast, that the gdbarch_tdep object is of the wrong
type, but, I did wonder, is there a way that we could protect
ourselves from incorrectly casting the gdbarch_tdep object?
I think that there is something we can do here, and this commit is the
first step in that direction, though no actual check is added by this
commit.
This commit can be split into two parts:
(1) In gdbarch.h and arch-utils.c. In these files I have modified
gdbarch_tdep (the function) so that it now takes a template argument,
like this:
template<typename TDepType>
static inline TDepType *
gdbarch_tdep (struct gdbarch *gdbarch)
{
struct gdbarch_tdep *tdep = gdbarch_tdep_1 (gdbarch);
return static_cast<TDepType *> (tdep);
}
After this change we are no better protected, but the cast is now
done within the gdbarch_tdep function rather than at the call sites,
this leads to the second, much larger change in this commit,
(2) Everywhere gdbarch_tdep is called, we make changes like this:
- i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = (i386_gdbarch_tdep *) gdbarch_tdep (arch);
+ i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = gdbarch_tdep<i386_gdbarch_tdep> (arch);
There should be no functional change after this commit.
In the next commit I will build on this change to add an assertion in
gdbarch_tdep that checks we are casting to the correct type.

* Remove a stray semicolon
* Restore dropped nullptr program argument in use of create_process() under CYGWIN

Prior to c6ca3dab dropping support for Cygwin 1.5, __USEWIDE was not
defined for Cygwin 1.5. After that, it's always defined if __CYGWIN__
is, so remove __USEWIDE conditionals inside __CYGWIN__ conditionals.
|
|
Prior to c6ca3dab dropping support for Cygwin 1.5, cygwin_buf_t was
defined as char for Cygwin 1.5. After that, it's always wchar_t, so
just use that.

This changes windows_process_info to use virtual methods for its
callbacks, and then changes the two clients of this code to subclass
this class to implement the methods.
I considered using CRTP here, but that would require making the new
structures visible to the compilation of of nat/windows-nat.c. This
seemed like a bit of a pain, so I didn't do it.
This change then lets us change all the per-inferior globals to be
members of the new subclass. Note that there can still only be a
single inferior -- currently there's a single global of the new type.
This is just another step toward possibly implementing multi-inferior
for Windows.
It's possible this could be cleaned up further... ideally I'd like to
move more of the data into the base class. However, because gdb
supports Cygwin and gdbserver does not, and because I don't have a way
to build or test Cygwin, larger refactorings are difficult.

This patch turns some windows-nat.c static functions into methods on
windows_nat_target. This avoids having to reference the
windows_nat_target singleton in some more spots -- a minor code
cleanup.

On Windows, it is possible to disable ASLR when creating a process.
This patch adds code to do this, and hooks it up to gdb's existing
disable-randomization feature. Because the Windows documentation
cautions that this isn't available on all versions of Windows, the
CreateProcess wrapper function is updated to make the attempt, and
then fall back to the current approach if it fails.
|
|
This is a small refactoring that introduces a wrapper for the Windows
CreateProcess function. This is done to make the next patch a bit
simpler.
