2017-08-07GDB/opcodes: Remove arch/mach/endian disassembler assertionsMaciej W. Rozycki2-7/+5
Fix `set architecture' and `set endian' command disassembly regressions from commit 39503f82427e ("Delegate opcodes to select disassembler in GDB"), and commit 003ca0fd2286 ("Refactor disassembler selection"), as well as a MIPS compressed ISA disassembly target regression from commit 6394c606997f ("Don't use print_insn_XXX in GDB"), which caused assertion failures to trigger. For example with the `mips-linux-gnu' target we get: $ cat main.c int main (void) { return 0; } $ gcc -mips32r2 -O2 main.c -o main $ gcc -mips16 -mips32r2 -O2 main.c -o main16 $ gdb GNU gdb (GDB) 8.0.50.20170731-git [...] (gdb) file main Reading symbols from main...done.

2017-08-07gdbarch: Use an anonymous union for target data in `gdbarch_info'Maciej W. Rozycki15-22/+68
As an update to commit ede5f15146ae ("gdbarch.h: Change gdbarch_info::tdep_info's type to void *") replace the definition of the `tdep_info' member in `struct gdbarch_info' with an anonymous union, comprising the original member, with its type reverted to `struct gdbarch_tdep_info *', a `tdesc_data' member of a `struct tdesc_arch_data *' type and an `id' member of an `int *' type. Remove now unnecessary casts throughout use places then, making code easier to read an less prone to errors, which may happen with casting. gdb/ * gdbarch.sh (gdbarch_info): Replace the `tdep_info' member with a union of `tdep_info', `tdesc_data' and `id'. * aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_gdbarch_init): Use `info.tdesc_data' rather than `info.tdep_info'. * amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_init_abi): Likewise. * i386-linux-tdep.c (i386_linux_init_abi): Likewise. * i386-tdep.c (i386_gdbarch_init): Likewise. * mips-linux-tdep.c (mips_linux_init_abi): Likewise. * mips-tdep.c (mips_gdbarch_init): Likewise. * nds32-tdep.c (nds32_gdbarch_init): Likewise. * rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_gdbarch_init): Likewise. * ppc-linux-tdep.c (ppu2spu_sniffer): Use `info.id' rather than `info.tdep_info'.

2017-08-07Fix dwarf2_string_attr for -gsplit-dwarfLeszek Swirski2-1/+6
The dwarf2_string_attr did not allow DW_FORM_GNU_str_index as a form for string types. This manifested as null strings in the namespace_name lookup (replaced with "(anonymous namespace)") when debugging Fission-compiled code. gdb/ChangeLog: * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_string_attr): Allow DW_FORM_GNU_strp_alt.
2017-08-07remote-sim.c: Fix arg variables conflictsSimon Marchi2-4/+8
The recent change introducing gdb_argv introduced some build failures in remote-sim.c. /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/remote-sim.c: In function 'void gdbsim_load(target_ops*, const char*, int)': /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/remote-sim.c:573:22: error: conflicting declaration 'gdb_argv argv' gdb_argv argv (args); ^ /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/remote-sim.c:565:10: note: previous declaration as 'char** argv' char **argv; ^~~~ /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/remote-sim.c: In function 'void gdbsim_open(const char*, int)': /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/remote-sim.c:730:25: error: declaration of 'gdb_argv args' shadows a parameter gdb_argv args (arg_buf); In gdbsim_load, the new gdb_argv object conflicts with old char **argv variable. I think the old variable should be removed. In gdbsim_open, the new gdb_argv object conflicts with the args parameter. This patch renames it to argv. Built-tested for a mips host. gdb/ChangeLog: * remote-sim.c (gdbsim_load): Remove char **argv local variable. (gdbsim_open): Rename gdb_argv args object to argv.
2017-08-05Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr when calling tilde_expandTom Tromey12-203/+129
This patch changes most sites calling tilde_expand to use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr, rather than a cleanup. It also changes scan_expression_with_cleanup to return a unique pointer, because the patch was already touching code in that area. Regression tested on the buildbot. ChangeLog 2017-08-05 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * compile/compile-object-load.c (compile_object_load): Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr. * cli/cli-dump.c (scan_filename): Rename from scan_filename_with_cleanup.

2017-08-05Fix Rust test suite for 1.20 betaTom Tromey2-3/+8
I ran the gdb.rust tests against Rust 1.20 (beta) and saw a few failures. The failures all came because a particular item moved to a different module. Since the particular choice of module name isn't important here, I simply widened the allowable results. Tested locally against rustc 1.19, 1.20, and 1.21. testsuite/ChangeLog 2017-08-05 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.rust/simple.exp: Allow String to appear in a different namespace.
2017-08-05Remove cleanups from Rust parserTom Tromey2-162/+202
This removes the few remaining cleanups in the Rust language code. The main difficulty here was that the earlier code allocated VEC heads on an obstack. The new code instead introduces an object that allocates and maintains the storage for whatever vectors are needed during the parse. Regression tested on the buildbot. ChangeLog 2017-08-05 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * rust-exp.y (rust_op_ptr, set_field): Remove typedefs. (rust_op_vector, rust_set_vector): New typedefs. (current_parser): New global. (work_obstack): Change to pointer type. Update all users. (rust_ast, pstate): Remove globals. (struct rust_parser): New. (%union) <params, field_inits>: Change type. (start, tuple_expr, unit_expr, struct_expr_list, literal) (field_expr, expr_list, maybe_expr_list, type_list): Update. (ast_call_ish, ast_path, ast_function_type, ast_tuple_type) (convert_params_to_types, convert_params_to_expression): Change type of "params". (ast_string): Change type of "fields". (rust_parse): Make a rust_parser. Remove cleanups. (rust_lex_tests): Make and install an auto_obstack.

2017-08-03Remove make_cleanup_freeargv and gdb_buildargvTom Tromey3-31/+6
After the previous patches in this series, make_cleanup_freeargv and gdb_buildargv are now unused and can be removed. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.c (make_cleanup_freeargv, do_freeargv, gdb_buildargv): Remove. * utils.h (make_cleanup_freeargv, gdb_buildargv): Remove.
2017-08-03Use gdb_argv in PythonTom Tromey2-17/+11
This changes one spot in the Python code to use gdb_argv. This removes the last cleanup from the Python layer. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-param.c (compute_enum_values): Use gdb_argv.
2017-08-03Introduce gdb_argv, a class wrapper for buildargvTom Tromey24-249/+289
This introduces gdb_argv, a class wrapping an "argv" pointer; that is, a pointer to a NULL-terminated array of char*, where both the array and each non-NULL element in the array are xmalloc'd. This patch then changes most users of gdb_buildargv to use gdb_argv instead. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (struct gdb_argv_deleter): New. (gdb_argv): New class. * utils.c (gdb_argv::reset): New method. * tracepoint.c (delete_trace_variable_command): Use gdb_argv. * tracefile.c (tsave_command): Use gdb_argv. * top.c (new_ui_command): Use gdb_argv. * symmisc.c (maintenance_print_symbols) (maintenance_print_msymbols, maintenance_expand_symtabs): Use gdb_argv. * symfile.c (symbol_file_command, generic_load) (remove_symbol_file_command): Use gdb_argv. * stack.c (backtrace_command): Use gdb_argv. * source.c (add_path, show_substitute_path_command) (unset_substitute_path_command, set_substitute_path_command): Use gdb_argv. * skip.c (skip_command): Use gdb_argv.

2017-08-03Remove a cleanup in PythonTom Tromey2-23/+11
This removes cleanups from gdbpy_decode_line, in favor of a use of unique_xmalloc_ptr. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/python.c (gdbpy_decode_line): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
2017-08-03Avoid some manual memory management in PythonTom Tromey4-42/+29
This changes a few places in the Python code to avoid manual memory management, in favor of letting std::string do the work. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/python.c (compute_python_string): Return std::string. (gdbpy_eval_from_control_command): Update. (do_start_initialization): Use std::string. * python/py-varobj.c (py_varobj_iter_next): Use string_printf, not xstrprintf. * python/py-breakpoint.c (local_setattro): Use string_printf, not xstrprintf.
2017-08-03Replace do_restore_instream_cleanup with scoped_restoreTom Tromey4-23/+11
This changes the users of do_restore_instream_cleanup to use a scoped_restore instead. This patch is broken out because it warrants some additional attention: in particular it's unclear to me whether current_ui can change in the body of these functions -- but if it can, then the cleanup would have modified a different UI's instream member. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * top.h (do_restore_instream_cleanup): Remove. * top.c (do_restore_instream_cleanup): Remove. (read_command_file): Use scoped_restore. * cli/cli-script.c (execute_user_command): Use scoped_restore.
2017-08-03Use a scoped_restore for command_nest_depthTom Tromey2-6/+11
This changes a couple of places to use a scoped_restore when manipulating command_nest_depth. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * cli/cli-script.c (execute_user_command) (execute_control_command): Use scoped_restore.
2017-08-03Remove user_call_depthTom Tromey2-15/+8
This changes execute_user_command to remove user_call_depth, using the size of user_args_stack instead. This avoids a cleanup. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * cli/cli-script.c (do_restore_user_call_depth): Remove. (execute_user_command): Remove user_call_depth; use user_args_stack's size instead.
2017-08-03Remove in_user_commandTom Tromey4-11/+7
While working on the next patch in this series, I found that the global in_user_command is not used. This patch removes it. (I didn't think to check Insight until submitting this series; and it's not very convenient to do so, so if someone has it checked out and could look at it, that would be nice.) ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * top.h (in_user_command): Remove. * top.c (in_user_command): Remove. * cli/cli-script.c (do_restore_user_call_depth) (execute_user_command): Update.
2017-08-03Use containers to avoid cleanupsTom Tromey10-108/+63
This patch introduces the use of various containers -- std::vector, std::string, or gdb::byte_vector -- in several spots in gdb that were using xmalloc and a cleanup. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * valops.c (search_struct_method): Use gdb::byte_vector. * valarith.c (value_concat): Use std::vector. * target.c (memory_xfer_partial): Use gdb::byte_vector. (simple_search_memory): Likewise. * printcmd.c (find_string_backward): Use gdb::byte_vector. * mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_data_write_memory): Use gdb::byte_vector. * gcore.c (gcore_copy_callback): Use gdb::byte_vector. * elfread.c (elf_rel_plt_read): Use std::string. * cp-valprint.c (cp_print_value): Use gdb::byte_vector. * cli/cli-dump.c (restore_section_callback): Use gdb::byte_vector.
2017-08-03Use unique_xmalloc_ptr in jit.cTom Tromey2-14/+9
This removes some cleanups from jit.c by using unique_xmalloc_ptr instead. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * jit.c (jit_reader_load_command): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
2017-08-03Replace tui_restore_gdbout with scoped_restoreTom Tromey2-20/+11
This patch replaces tui_restore_gdbout (a cleaup function) with a use of scoped_restore. This one is broken out into its own patch because it might slightly change the behavior of gdb: it saves and restores pagination_enabled, whereas the tui_restore_gdbout unconditionally set pagination_enabled to 1; and I think this warrants closer review. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * tui/tui-regs.c (tui_restore_gdbout): Remove. (tui_register_format): Use scoped_restore.
2017-08-03More uses of scoped_restoreTom Tromey5-115/+56
There were a few more places in gdb that could easily use scoped_restore, replacing some cleanups. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * reverse.c (exec_direction_default): Remove. (exec_reverse_once): Use scoped_restore. * remote.c (restore_remote_timeout): Remove. (remote_flash_erase, remote_flash_write, remote_flash_done) (readchar, remote_serial_write): Use scoped_restore. * cli/cli-script.c (struct source_cleanup_lines_args) (source_cleanup_lines): Remove. (script_from_file): Use scoped_restore. * cli/cli-cmds.c (source_verbose_cleanup): Remove. (source_command): Use scoped_restore.
2017-08-03Remove make_cleanup_free_soTom Tromey5-39/+26
make_cleanup_free_so is used in a single spot. This patch introduces a unique pointer wrapper for struct so_list, and changes this spot to use it. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (make_cleanup_free_so): Remove. * utils.c (do_free_so, make_cleanup_free_so): Remove. * solist.h (struct so_deleter): New. (so_list_up): New typedef. * solib-svr4.c (svr4_read_so_list): Use so_list_up.
2017-08-03Remove make_cleanup_restore_current_languageTom Tromey6-36/+47
This patch replaces make_cleanup_restore_current_language with an RAII class that saves the current language, and restores it when the object is destroyed. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (make_cleanup_restore_current_language): Remove. * utils.c (do_restore_current_language) (make_cleanup_restore_current_language): Remove. * parse.c (parse_exp_in_context_1) (parse_expression_with_language): Use scoped_restore_current_language. * mi/mi-main.c (mi_cmd_execute): Use scoped_restore_current_language. * language.h (scoped_restore_current_language): New class.
2017-08-03Remove an unlink cleanupTom Tromey2-19/+25
compile/compile.c had its own cleanup to unlink a file. This patch replaces this cleanup with gdb::unlinker. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * compile/compile.c (cleanup_unlink_file): Remove. (compile_to_object): Use gdb::unlinker. (eval_compile_command): Likewise.
2017-08-03Remove make_cleanup_fcloseTom Tromey3-20/+5
After the preceding patches, make_cleanup_fclose is no longer used, so remove it. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (make_cleanup_fclose): Remove. * utils.c (do_fclose_cleanup, make_cleanup_fclose): Remove.
2017-08-03Change open_terminal_stream to return a gdb_file_upTom Tromey2-12/+17
This changes open_terminal_stream to return a gdb_file_up, eliminating another use of make_cleanup_fclose. Arguably perhaps new_ui should take ownership of the files using a move, but there is at least one spot where this isn't appropriate (or at least not currently done), so I elected to use a more minimal approach. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * top.c (open_terminal_stream): Return gdb_file_up. (new_ui_command): Update.
2017-08-03Use gdb_file_up in source.cTom Tromey2-29/+21
This changes some functions in source.c to use gdb_file_up. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * source.c (print_source_lines_base, forward_search_command) (reverse_search_command): Use gdb_file_up.
2017-08-03Use gdb_file_up in fbsd-nat.cTom Tromey2-4/+6
This updates fbsd-nat.c to use gdb_file_up. This removes a use of a cleanup, and helps remove make_cleanup_fclose in a later patch. I have no way to test this patch. ChangeLog 2017-08-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * fbsd-nat.c (fbsd_find_memory_regions): Update.

2017-07-31Fix documentation about rot agent expression bytecodeSimon Marchi2-2/+9
The rot agent expression bytecode rotates the three items on the top of the stack. It is not clear which way the rotation is. However, the documentation currently shows this as the effect of the instructions: a b c => c b a which doesn't make sense, since the value b doesn't move. The two valid possibilities I see are a b c => b c a a b c => c a b depending on which way you rotate. When looking at the gdbserver code, the top of the stack becomes the third item, and the next-to-top item becomes the top. So the second form would be the right one, since in this notation the top of the stack is the rightmost element: a b c => c a b I adjusted the symbolic description and added a bit of text to make it more obvious. gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * agentexpr.texi (rot): Fix symbolic description, improve textual description.

2017-07-26Add "maint check xml-descriptions" to test builtin xml target descriptionsYao Qi11-0/+259
Now, GDB is able to dynamically create i386-linux target descriptions from features, instead of using pre-generated target descriptions.

2017-07-26Lazily and dynamically create i386-linux target descriptionsYao Qi5-34/+112
Instead of using pre-generated target descriptions, this patch changes GDB to lazily and dynamically create target descriptions according to the target hardware capability (xcr0 in i386). This support any combination of target features. Some reg in target description has "regnum" attribute, so its register number is got from the attribute value instead from sequential allocation. <reg name="xmm0" bitsize="128" type="vec128" regnum="32"/> when target description is created, it should match the regnum, so this patch adds a new field m_next_regnum to track it, if attribute number is greater than the m_next_regnum, print the code to set register number explicitly. gdb: 2017-07-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * i386-linux-tdep.c: Don't include features/i386/i386-*linux.c.

2017-07-26Generate c for feature instead of tdescYao Qi10-12/+425
This patch changes Makefile and command "maint print c-files" so that GDB can print c files for features instead target description. Previously, we feed GDB a target description xml file, which generate c files including multiple features. With this patch, in Makefile, we wrap each feature xml file, and create a temp target description which include only one feature. Then, adjust the target description printer for them, and print a c function for each given feature, so that we can use these c functions later to create target description in a flexible way. gdb: 2017-07-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * features/Makefile (CFILES): Rename with TDESC_CFILES.

2017-07-26Use visitor pattern for "maint print c-tdesc"Yao Qi96-558/+764
Target description can be modeled as a tree, the target description is the root node, features are children nodes, registers and types are grand-children nodes. So command "maint print c-tdesc" in effect traverse/visit each node, and print them in c. This can be implemented by visitor pattern, this is the first reason. Secondly, I want to this command prints c files in a different way for some specific xml files, but still print c files the same way for the rest of xml files. Third, I even want to print xml files from target descriptions, so that GDBserver can use it to reply GDB's query qXfer:features:read:target.xml. gdb: 2017-07-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * target-descriptions.c (tdesc_element_visitor): New class.

2017-07-26Add optional argument to command "maint prints c-tdesc"Yao Qi6-14/+44
Nowadays, we need two steps to print c files for xml target description, that is, 1) read xml target description in, update the current tdesc, 2) visit the current tdesc, print the c file. It is unnecessary to involve in current tdesc, and some validations in each gdbarch are performed unnecessarily, which will reject some target descriptions if they are missing some mandatory feature. This patch adds an optional argument to "maint print c-tdesc", which is an XML file target description, so that we can combine the two steps above into one step, and don't have to involve in global current tdesc. gdb: 2017-07-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * NEWS: Mention it. * features/Makefile (%.c: %.xml): Pass the xml file name to command "maint print c-tdesc". * target-descriptions.c (maint_print_c_tdesc_cmd): Get file name from 'arg'. gdb/doc: 2017-07-26 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * gdb.texinfo (Maintenance Commands): Document optional argument of "maint print c-tdesc".

If you can help find a shorter but still relavant name, it would be awesome. Otherwise, we'll go with that, fast_tpoint_collect_result, which is at least consistent with the existing fast_tpoint_collect_status. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: * tracepoint.h (enum class fast_tpoint_collect_result): New enumeration.

This error can be reproduced by changing reread.exp. The test reread.exp has already test that breakpoint can be reset correctly after the executable is re-read. This patch extends this test by compiling test c file with and without -fPIE. (gdb) run ^M The program being debugged has been started already.^M Start it from the beginning?
