2013-11-08constify to_detachTom Tromey26-38/+67
This patch constifies the target_ops method to_detach. This is a small cleanup, but also, I think, a bug-prevention fix, since gdb already acts as if the "args" argument here was const. In particular, top.c:quit_force calls kill_or_detach via iterate_over_inferiors. kill_or_detach calls target_detach, passing the same argument each time. So, if one of these methods was not const-correct, then kill_or_detach would change its behavior in a strange way. I could not build every target I modified in this patch. I've inspected them all by hand, though. Many targets do not use the "args" parameter; a couple pass it to atoi; and a few pass it on to the to_detach method of the target beneath. The only code that required a real change was in linux-nat.c, and that only needed the introduction of a temporary variable for const-correctness. 2013-11-08 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * aix-thread.c (aix_thread_detach): Update. * corelow.c (core_detach): Update. * darwin-nat.c (darwin_detach): Update. * dec-thread.c (dec_thread_detach): Update. * gnu-nat.c (gnu_detach): Update. * go32-nat.c (go32_detach): Update. * inf-ptrace.c (inf_ptrace_detach): Update. * inf-ttrace.c (inf_ttrace_detach): Update. * linux-fork.c (linux_fork_detach): Update. * linux-fork.h (linux_fork_detach): Update. * linux-nat.c (linux_nat_detach): Update.

2013-11-07Remove varobj_language_string, languages and varobj_languagesYao Qi6-55/+27
This patch does some cleanups, removing some language-related stuff. Note that mi_cmd_var_info_expression uses varobj_language_string, which is redundant, because we can get language name from lang->la_natural_name. varobj_language_string doesn't have "Ada", which looks like a bug to me. With this patch applied, this problem doesn't exist, because the language name is got from the same place (field la_natural_name). gdb: 2013-11-07 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * mi/mi-cmd-var.c: Include "language.h".

2013-11-06S390: Fix TDB regset recognitionAndreas Arnez4-20/+44
When checking for the presence of the TDB regset, the current code interprets ENODATA from PTRACE_GETREGSET as an indication that the TDB regset *could* occur on this system, but the inferior stopped outside a transaction. However, the Linux kernel actually reports ENODATA even on systems without the transactional execution facility. Thus the logic is now changed to check the TE field in the HWCAP as well. This version also checks the existence of the TDB regset -- just to be on the safe side when running on TE-enabled hardware with a kernel that does not offer the TDB regset for some reason. gdb/ * s390-linux-nat.c (s390_read_description): Consider the TE field in the HWCAP for determining 'have_regset_tdb'. gdbserver/ * linux-s390-low.c (HWCAP_S390_TE): New define.

2013-11-06Test on solib load and unloadYao Qi5-0/+260
This patch is to add a test case to on the performance of GDB handling load and unload of shared library. In V4: - Handle malloc and dlopen failure, - Document test parameters. In V3, there are some changes, - Adapt to perf test framework changes. - Measure load and unload separately. In V2, there are some changes, - A new proc gdb_produce_source to produce source files. I tried to move all source file generation code out of solib.exp, but compilation step still needs to know the generated file names. I have to hard-code the file names in compilation step, which is not good to me, so I give up on this moving. - SOLIB_NUMBER -> SOLIB_COUNT - New variable SOLIB_DLCLOSE_REVERSED_ORDER to control the order of iterating a list of shared libs to dlclose them. - New variable GDB_PERFORMANCE to enable these perf test cases. - Remove dlsym call in solib.c. - Update solib.py for the updated framework. gdb/testsuite/ * lib/gdb.exp (gdb_produce_source): New procedure. * gdb.perf/solib.c: New. * gdb.perf/solib.exp: New. * gdb.perf/solib.py: New.

2013-11-06Perf test frameworkYao Qi7-0/+491
This patch adds a basic framework to do performance testing for GDB. perftest.py is about the test case, testresult.py is about test results, and how are they saved. reporter.py is about how results are reported (in what format). measure.py is about measuring the execution of tests by a collection of measurements. In V5: - Simplify perftest.exp. In V4: - Rename MeasurementCPUTime to MeasurementCpuTime, - Add 'pass' in empty method, - Simplify string comparison in perftest.exp. - Rename GDB_PERFORMANCE to GDB_PERFTEST_MODE and rename GDB_PERFORMANCE_TIMEOUT to GDB_PERFTEST_TIMEOUT. In V3, there are some changes, - Add wall time measurement, cpu time measurement and vmsize measurement. - Rename SingleStatisticTestCase to TestCaseWithBasicMeasurements, which measures cpu time, wall time, and memory (vmsize). - GDB_PERFORMANCE=run|compile|both to control the mode of perf testing. - New GDB_PERFORMANCE_TIMEOUT to specify the timeout. - Split proc prepare to proc compile and startup. - Disable GC while doing measurements. In V2, there are several changes to address Doug and Sanimir's comments. - Add copyright header and docstring in perftest/__init__.py - Remove config.py. - Fix docstring format. - Rename classes "SingleVariable" to "SingleStatistic". - Don't extend gdb.Function in class TestCase. Add a new method run to run the test case so that we can pass parameters to test. - Allow to customize whether to warm up and to append test log. - Move time measurement into test harness. Add a new class Measurement for a specific measurement and a new class Measure to measure them for a given test case. - A new class ResultFactory to create instances of TestResult. - New file lib/perftest.exp, which is to do some preparations and cleanups to simplify each *.exp file. - Skip compilation step if GDB_PERFORMANCE_SKIP_COMPILE is set. gdb/testsuite/ 2013-11-06 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * lib/perftest.exp: New. * gdb.perf/lib/perftest/__init__.py: New. * gdb.perf/lib/perftest/measure.py: New. * gdb.perf/lib/perftest/perftest.py: New. * gdb.perf/lib/perftest/reporter.py: New. * gdb.perf/lib/perftest/testresult.py: New.
2013-11-06New make target 'check-perf' and new dir gdb.perfYao Qi7-2/+41
We add a new dir gdb.perf in testsuite for all performance tests. However, current 'make check' logic will either run dejagnu in directory testsuite or iterate all gdb.* directories which has *.exp files. Both of them will run tests in gdb.perf. We want to achieve: 1) typical 'make check' should not run performance tests. In each perf test case, GDB_PERFTEST_MODE is checked. If it doesn't exist, return. 2) run perf tests easily. We add a new makefile target 'check-perf'. gdb: 2013-11-06 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * Makefile.in (check-perf): New target. gdb/testsuite: 2013-11-06 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> * Makefile.in (check-perf): New target. * configure.ac (AC_OUTPUT): Output Makefile in gdb.perf. * configure: Re-generated. * gdb.perf/Makefile.in: New.

2013-11-04switch to fully parallel modeTom Tromey2-58/+56
This switches "make check" to fully parallel mode. One primary issue facing full parallelization is the overhead of "runtest". On my machine, if I "touch gdb.base/empty.exp", making a new file, and then "time runtest.exp", it takes 0.08 seconds. Multiply this by the 1008 (in my configuration) tests and you get ~80 seconds. This is the overhead that would theoretically be present if all tests were run in parallel. However, the problem isn't nearly as bad as this, for two reasons. First, you must divide by the number of jobs, assuming perfect parallelization -- reasonably true for small -j numbers, based on the results I see. Second, the current test suite parallelization approach bundles the tests, largely by directory, but also splitting up gdb.base into two halves. I was curious to see how the current bundling played out in practice, so I ran "make -j1 check RUNTEST='/bin/time runtest'". This invokes the parallel mode (thus the bundling) and then shows the time taken by each invocation of runtest. Then, I ran "/bin/time make -j3 check". (See below about -j2.) The time for the entire -j3 test run was the same as the time for "gdb.base1". What this means is that gdb.base1 is currently the time-limiting run, preventing further parallelization gains. So, I reason, whatever overhead we see from full parallelization will only be seen by "-j1" and "-j2". I then tried a -j2 test run. This does take longer than a -j3 build, meaning that the gdb.base1 job finishes and then proceeds to other runtest invocations. Finally I tried a -j2 test run with the appended patch. This was 9% slower than the -j2 run without the patch. I think that is a reasonable slowdown for what is probably a rare case. I believe this patch will yield faster test results for all -j values greater than 2. For -j3 on my machine, the test suite is a few seconds faster; I didn't try any larger -j values. For -j1, I went ahead and changed the Makefile so that, if no -j option is given, then the "check-single" mode is used. You can still use "make -j1 check" to get single-job parallel-mode, though of course there's no good reason to do so. This change is likely to speed up the plain "make check" scenario a little as we will now bypass dg-extract-results.sh. One drawback of this change is that "make -jN check" is now much more verbose. I generally only look at the .sum and .log files, but perhaps this will bother some. Another interesting question is scalability of the result. The slowest test, which limits the scalability, took 80.78 seconds. The mean of the remaining tests is 1.08 seconds. (Note that this is just a rough estimate, since there are still outliers.) This means we can run 80.78 / 1.08 =~ 74 tests in the time available. And, in this data set (slightly older than the above, but materially the same) there were 948 tests. So, I think the current test suite should scale ok up to about -j12. We could improve this number if need be by breaking up the biggest tests. 2013-11-04 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (TEST_DIRS): Remove. (TEST_TARGETS, check-parallel): Rewrite.

2013-11-04fix up log-file togglingTom Tromey2-1/+7
Currently a proc in gdb.exp toggles the expect (and thus dejagnu) logging. This is not a super idea, but it is there to avoid putting some preprocessor output into the log. In the right circumstances, this can result in the log file being mysteriously truncated. I think this happens because it doesn't necessarily write to the correct log file again. The fix is to use "log_file -info" to save the previous log file. 2013-11-04 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * lib/gdb.exp (get_compiler_info): Use log_file -info and restore from that.

I noticed a large (100MB) restore took hours to complete. The problem is memory_xfer_partial repeatedly mallocs and memcpys the entire 100MB buffer for breakpoint shadow handling only to find a small portion of it is actually written. The testcase that originally took hours now takes 50 seconds. gdb/ 2013-07-29 Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> * target.c (memory_xfer_partial): Cap write to 4KB.

2013-11-01breakpoint.c: fix libc probe scan when no get_longjmp_target exists.Tiago Stürmer Daitx2-2/+8
As discussed on the GDB ML[1], libc probes for longjmp were not being loaded if a custom <arch>_get_longjmp_target function was not implemented. This is trivially fixed by moving the 'if (!gdbarch_get_longjmp_target_p (gdbarch))' down, just bellow libc probe code and above the per-objfile cache lookup. While the condition could also be removed altogether with no side-effects, it is in fact an optimization to avoid searching for symbols if the arch doesn't provide support for get_longjmp_target(). This has been tested on PPC and PPC64.

2013-10-31infrun.c: use GDB_SIGNAL_0 when hidding signals, not GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP.Pedro Alves2-9/+15
IMO, it doesn't make sense to map random syscall, fork, etc. events to GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, and possible have the debuggee see that trap. This just seems conceptually wrong to me - these aren't real signals a debuggee would ever see. In fact, when stopped for those events, on Linux, the debuggee isn't in a signal-stop -- there's no way to resume-and-deliver-signal at that point, for example. E.g., when stopped at a fork event: (gdb) catch fork Catchpoint 2 (fork) (gdb) c Continuing. Catchpoint 2 (forked process 4570), 0x000000323d4ba7c4 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131 131 pid = ARCH_FORK (); (gdb) set debug infrun 1 (gdb) signal SIGTRAP Continuing with signal SIGTRAP. infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (process 4566) infrun: proceed (addr=0xffffffffffffffff, signal=5, step=0) infrun: resume (step=0, signal=5), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 4566] at 0x323d4ba7c4 infrun: wait_for_inferior () infrun: target_wait (-1, status) = infrun: 4566 [process 4566], infrun: status->kind = exited, status = 0 infrun: infwait_normal_state infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_EXITED [Inferior 1 (process 4566) exited normally] infrun: stop_stepping (gdb) Note the signal went nowhere. It was swallowed. Resuming with a SIGTRAP from a syscall event does queue the signal, but doesn't deliver it immediately, like "signal SIGTRAP" from a real signal would. It's still an artificial SIGTRAP: (gdb) catch syscall Catchpoint 2 (any syscall) (gdb) c Continuing. Catchpoint 2 (call to syscall clone), 0x000000323d4ba7c4 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131 131 pid = ARCH_FORK (); (gdb) set debug infrun 1 (gdb) signal SIGTRAP Continuing with signal SIGTRAP. infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (process 4622) infrun: proceed (addr=0xffffffffffffffff, signal=5, step=0) infrun: resume (step=0, signal=5), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 4622] at 0x323d4ba7c4 infrun: wait_for_inferior () infrun: target_wait (-1, status) = infrun: 4622 [process 4622], infrun: status->kind = exited syscall infrun: infwait_normal_state infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_SYSCALL_RETURN infrun: syscall number = '56' infrun: BPSTAT_WHAT_STOP_NOISY infrun: stop_stepping Catchpoint 2 (returned from syscall clone), 0x000000323d4ba7c4 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131 131 pid = ARCH_FORK (); (gdb) c Continuing. infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (process 4622) infrun: proceed (addr=0xffffffffffffffff, signal=144, step=0) infrun: resume (step=0, signal=0), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 4622] at 0x323d4ba7c4 infrun: wait_for_inferior () infrun: target_wait (-1, status) = infrun: 4622 [process 4622], infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = SIGTRAP infrun: infwait_normal_state infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4ba7c4 infrun: random signal 5 Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap. infrun: stop_stepping 0x000000323d4ba7c4 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131 131 pid = ARCH_FORK (); (gdb) In all the above, I used 'signal SIGTRAP' to emulate 'handle SIGTRAP pass'. As described in "keep_going", 'handle SIGTRAP pass' does have its place: /* Do not deliver GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP (except when the user explicitly specifies that such a signal should be delivered to the target program). Typically, that would occur when a user is debugging a target monitor on a simulator: the target monitor sets a breakpoint; the simulator encounters this breakpoint and halts the simulation handing control to GDB; GDB, noting that the stop address doesn't map to any known breakpoint, returns control back to the simulator; the simulator then delivers the hardware equivalent of a GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP to the program being debugged. */ ... and I've made use of that myself when implementing/debugging stubs/monitors. But in these cases, treating these events as SIGTRAP possibly injects signals in the debuggee they'd never see otherwise, because you need to use ptrace to enable these special events, which aren't real signals. There's more. Take this bit of handle_inferior_event, where we determine whether a real signal (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED) was random or not: if (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP) ecs->random_signal = !((bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat, GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP) != BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO) || stopped_by_watchpoint || ecs->event_thread->control.trap_expected || (ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_end && (ecs->event_thread->control.step_resume_breakpoint == NULL))); else { enum bpstat_signal_value sval; sval = bpstat_explains_signal (ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat, ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal); ecs->random_signal = (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_NO); if (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE) ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP; } Note that the if (sval == BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE) ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP; bit is only reacheable for signals != GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP. AFAICS, sval can only be BPSTAT_SIGNAL_HIDE if nothing in the bpstat returns BPSTAT_SIGNAL_PASS. So that excludes a "catch signal" for the signal in question in the bpstat. All other catchpoints that aren't based on breakpoints behind the scenes call process_event_stop_test directly (don't pass through here) (well, almost all: TARGET_WAITKIND_LOADED does have a fall through, but only for STOP_QUIETLY or STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP, which still return before this code is reached). Catchpoints that are implemented as breakpoints behind the scenes can only appear in the bpstat if the signal was GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP (bkpt_breakpoint_hit returns false otherwise). So that leaves a target reporting a hardware watchpoint hit with a signal other than GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP. And even then it looks quite wrong to me to magically convert the signal into a GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP here too -- if the user has set SIGTRAP to "handle pass", the program will see a trap that gdb invented, not one the program would ever see without gdb in the picture. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17. gdb/ 2013-10-31 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * infrun.c (handle_syscall_event): Don't set or clear stop_signal. (handle_inferior_event) <TARGET_WAITKIND_FORKED, TARGET_WAITKIND_VFORKED>: Don't set stop_signal to GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP, or clear it. Pass GDB_SIGNAL_0 to bpstat_explains signal, instead of GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP. <bpstat handling>: If the bpstat chain wants the signal to be hidden, then set stop_signal to GDB_SIGNAL_0 instead of GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP.

2013-10-30S/390: Rename source files to *-linux-*Ulrich Weigand8-9/+27
As suggested before, rename the S/390-related source files (tdep and nat) such that "-linux-" occurs in the file name, like with other GNU/Linux targets. Since no other operating system is currently supported by GDB on this architecture, this isn't strictly necessary. But the old names sometimes caused GDB contributors to miss these files when performing a change that affects all GNU/Linux targets. The latest such incident was observed here: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-09/msg00619.html gdb/ 2013-10-30 Andreas Arnez <arnez@linux.vnet.ibm.com> * s390-tdep.h: Rename to... * s390-linux-tdep.h: ...here. * s390-tdep.c: Rename to... * s390-linux-tdep.c: ...here.

2013-10-29undef reg in gdb_curses.hTom Tromey3-5/+13
I tried to build gdb on the AIX machine in the GCC compile farm (gcc111), but it failed in a couple of spots because gdb uses "reg" as a variable name and the AIX <curses.h> defines "reg" to "register". I saw that we already had a workaround for this lurking in utils.c, so I just moved that to gdb_curses.h. This fixed the problem on AIX and still builds on x86-64 Fedora 18. 2013-10-29 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> * utils.c (reg): Move undefinition... * gdb_curses.h: ... here.
