2015-07-08Delete program spaces directly when removing inferiorsSimon Marchi6-57/+57
When deleting an inferior, delete the associated program space as well if it becomes unused. This replaces the "pruning" approach, with which you could forget to call prune_program_spaces (as seen, with the -remove-inferior command, see [1]). This allows to remove the prune_program_spaces function. At the same time, I was able to clean up the delete_inferior* family. delete_inferior_silent and delete_inferior were unused, which allowed renaming delete_inferior_1 to delete_inferior. Also, since all calls to it were with silent=1, I removed that parameter completely. I renamed pspace_empty_p to program_space_empty_p. I prefer if the "exported" functions have a more explicit and standard name. Tested on Ubuntu 14.10. This obsoletes my previous patch "Add call to prune_program_spaces in mi_cmd_remove_inferior" [1]. [1] https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-09/msg00717.html gdb/Changelog: * inferior.c (delete_inferior_1): Rename to ...

2015-07-08compile: Warn for old GCC on cv-qualified self-referenceJan Kratochvil5-35/+60
GDB could: compile code struct_object.selffield = &struct_object ./compile/compile-c-types.c:83: internal-error: insert_type: Assertion `add == NULL || add->gcc_type == gcc_type' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.compile/compile.exp: compile code struct_object.selffield = &struct_object (GDB internal error) The bug was not in GDB but in the GCC part interfacing with GDB.

2015-07-08PR18617 - Incorrect expression bytecode generated for narrowing conversionsRobert O'Callahan4-1/+13
The existing code preserves 'from' bits, which is incorrect. E.g. (gdb) maint agent-eval (char)255L Scope: 0x4008d6 Reg mask: 00 0 const16 255 3 ext 64 5 end 'ext 64' should be 'ext 8'; this bytecode evaluates to 255 instead of the correct result of -1. The fix is simple. I ran the entire test suite on x86-64 and there were no new test failures. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-07-08 Robert O'Callahan <robert@ocallahan.org> PR exp/18617 * ax-gdb.c (gen_conversion): Extend to 'to' bits, not 'from'. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-07-08 Robert O'Callahan <robert@ocallahan.org> PR exp/18617 * gdb.trace/ax.exp: Add test.

2015-07-07New proc is_aarch64_targetYao Qi6-4/+23
Some tests expect the the target is aarch64, but checking target triplet is not accurate, because target triplet can be aarch64 but the program is in arm (or aarch32) state. This patch addes a new proc is_aarch64_target which returns true if the target is on aarch64 state. gdb/testsuite: 2015-07-07 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * gdb.arch/aarch64-atomic-inst.exp: Check is_aarch64_target instead of istarget "aarch64*-*-*". * gdb.arch/aarch64-fp.exp: Likewise. * gdb.base/float.exp: Likewise. * gdb.reverse/aarch64.exp: Likewise. * lib/gdb.exp (is_aarch64_target): New proc.
2015-07-07New proc is_aarch32_targetYao Qi9-7/+56
GDB tests running on arm target should be also run on aarch32 (32-bit mode on aarch64). There should be no difference. It is not precise to check target triplet to decide which tests should be run, because if I compiler all the test binary in 32-bit (arm program), but target triplet is still aarch64, so that these arm specific tests are skipped. This patch is to add a new proc is_aarch32_target which return true if target triplet is arm or the test binary is compiled for arm. gdb/testsuite: 2015-07-07 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * lib/gdb.exp (is_aarch32_target): New proc. * gdb.arch/arm-bl-branch-dest.exp: Check is_aarch32_target instead of "istarget "arm*-*-*"". * gdb.arch/arm-disp-step.exp: Likewise. * gdb.arch/thumb-bx-pc.exp: Likewise. * gdb.arch/thumb-prologue.exp: Likewise. * gdb.arch/thumb-singlestep.exp: Likewise. * gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: Likewise. * gdb.base/float.exp: Likewise.

2015-07-07Adjust gdb.multi tests for aarch64Yao Qi3-2/+41
Multi-arch related tests under gdb.multi are to compile programs with the same compiler but different compiler options (-m64 vs -m32). However, different compilers are needed to compile both aarch64 program and arm (aarch32) program. This patch is to adjust these test cases to compile programs in different modes with different compiler. When we use gcc for arm-linux target, its file name can be different, arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc, arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc, or arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc, so I add a variable ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET, so that user can set the name of gcc for arm-linux target on aarch64, like: $ make check RUNTESTFLAGS='ARM_CC_FOR_TARGET=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc multi-arch.exp' gdb/testsuite: 2015-07-07 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.exp: Set march1 and march2 to "" if target is aarch64.

2015-07-07Set architecture to arm in arm-*.xml filesYao Qi13-0/+33
This patch is to add the following line to various arm target description xml files, <architecture>arm</architecture> in order to fix problems I've seen on aarch64 multi-arch debugging, detach^M Detaching from program: build-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/attach, process 17145^M (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: attach1 detach file^M No executable file now.^M Architecture of file not recognized.^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/attach.exp: attach1, purging symbols after detach Without this patch, struct target_desc *tdesc_* are not initialised properly, that is, fields arch and osabi in 'struct target_desc' are not set properly. This doesn't cause any problems on single arch debugging, because arch-utils.c:gdbarch_info_fill will guess correctly. However, in multi-arch debugging, gdbarch_info_fill gets the aarch64 arch, but the target description is for arm (because the current inferior is 32-bit arm). It is a surprise to me we didn't set architecture to "arm" before in *.xml files, and I didn't find out why didn't do so. AFAICS, gdb/features/arm-with-iwmmxt.xml was added firstly (in patch https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-01/msg00593.html) which had <architecture>iwmmxt</architecture>, however, afterwards, architecture isn't set anymore in features/arm-*.xml files (in patches https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-07/msg00689.html and https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-08/msg00225.html). gdb: 2015-07-07 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * features/arm-with-m-fpa-layout.xml: Set architecture to arm. * features/arm-with-m-fpa-layout.c: Regenerated. * features/arm-with-m-vfp-d16.xml: Likewise. * features/arm-with-m-vfp-d16.c: Regenerated. * features/arm-with-m.xml: Likewise. * features/arm-with-m.c: Regenerated. * features/arm-with-neon.xml: Likewise. * features/arm-with-neon.c: Regenerated. * features/arm-with-vfpv2.xml: Likewise. * features/arm-with-vfpv2.c: Regenerated. * features/arm-with-vfpv3.xml: Likewise. * features/arm-with-vfpv3.c: Regenerated.
2015-07-07Native debug arm program by aarch64 GDBYao Qi6-43/+192
This patch is to let aarch64 GDB debug 32-bit arm program natively. In each function for fetching and storing registers, GDB will check gdbarch_bfd_arch_info (gdbarch)->bits_per_word, if it is 32, call the corresponding aarch32 functions in aarch32-linux-nat.c, otherwise fall back to aarch64 code to fetch and store registers. aarch64_linux_read_description has to return the right target description, but we don't have gdbarch available there, so GDB fetches auxv and gets AT_PHENT, in order to determine whether the target is 32-bit or 64-bit.

2015-07-02Add support for backtracing through Renesas RX exception frames.Kevin Buettner2-21/+265
This change adds support for backtracing through Renesas RX exception frames. Determination about the type of frame is made by scanning the remainder of the function for a return instruction and then looking at which, if any, return instruction is found. A normal RTS instruction indicates that the frame is a normal frame. An RTFI instruction indicates that it's a fast interrupt, and an RTE instruction indicates that the frame is a (normal) exception frame. If no return instruction is found within the scanned region - which can happen when the end of the function cannot be found - it is assumed to be a normal frame. I was able to test that normal prologue scanning still works by disabling the dwarf2 sniffer. I've tested this code for normal interrupts. The fast interrupt case has not been tested. gdb/ChangeLog: * rx-tdep.c (RX_USP_REGNUM, RX_BPC_REGNUM): New constants. (enum rx_frame_type): New. (struct rx_prologue): Add new field `frame_type'.

2015-07-01TUI: Make sure to update registers if frame information has changedPatrick Palka4-10/+33
When I replaced TUI's frame_changed hook to fix PR tui/13378 I assumed that there's no reason to refresh register information following a call to "up", "down" or "frame". This assumption was made to fix the problem of refreshing frame information twice following a sync-execution normal stop (once in tui_normal_stop and then in tui_before_prompt) -- the second refresh removing any highlights made by the first. I was wrong about that -- GDB's snapshot of register information is per-frame, and when the frame changes, registers do too (most prominently the %rip and %rsp registers). So e.g. GDB 7.8 would highlight such register changes after invoking "up", "down" or "frame", and current GDB does not. To fix this regression, this patch adds another (sufficient) condition for refreshing register information: in tui_refresh_frame_and_register_information, always refresh register information if frame information has changed. This makes register information get refreshed following a call to "up", "down" or "frame" while still avoiding the "double refresh" issue following a normal stop. This condition may seem to obsolete the existing registers_too_p parameter, but it does not: following a normal stop, it is possible that registers may have changed while frame information had not. We could be on the exact same PC with different register values. The new condition would not catch such a case, but the registers_too_p condition will. So both conditions seem necessary (and either one is sufficient). gdb/ChangeLog: * tui/tui-hooks.c (tui_refresh_frame_and_register_information): Update commentary. Always refresh the registers when frame information has changed. * tui/tui-stack.c (tui_show_frame_info): Update commentary. Change return type to int.

2015-06-30Replace TUI's select_frame hook (PR tui/13378)Patrick Palka5-24/+82
The select_frame hook is used by TUI to update TUI's frame and register information following changes to the selected frame. The problem with this hook is that it gets called after every single frame change, even if the frame change is only temporary or internal. This is the primary cause of flickering and slowdown when running the inferior under TUI with conditional breakpoints set. Internal GDB events are the source of many calls to select_frame and these internal events are triggered frequently, especially when a few conditional breakpoints are set. This patch removes the select_frame hook altogether and instead makes the frame and register information get updated in two key places (using observers): after an inferior stops, and right before displaying a prompt. The latter hook covers the case when frame information must be updated following a call to "up", "down" or "frame", and the former covers the case when frame and register information must be updated after a call to "continue", "step", etc. or after the inferior stops in async execution mode. Together these hooks should cover all the cases when frame information ought to be refreshed (and when the relevant windows ought to be subsequently updated). The print_frame_info_listing hook is also effectively obsolete now, but it still must be set while the TUI is active because its caller print_frame_info will otherwise assume that the CLI is active, and will print the frame informaion accordingly. So this patch also sets the print_frame_info_listing hook to a dummy callback, in lieu of outright removing it yet. Effectively, with this patch, frame/PC changes that do not immediately precede an inferior-stop event or a prompt display event no longer cause TUI's frame and register information to be updated. And as a result of this change and of the previous change to tui_show_frame_info, the TUI is much more disciplined about updating the screen, and so the flicker as described in the PR is totally gone. gdb/ChangeLog: PR tui/13378 * frame.c (select_frame): Remove reference to deprecated_selected_frame_level_changed_hook. * frame.h (deprecated_selected_frame_level_changed_hook): Remove declaration. * stack.c (deprecated_selected_frame_level_changed_hook): Likewise. * tui/tui-hooks.c (tui_selected_frame_level_changed_hook): Rename to ...

2015-06-30Be lazy about refreshing the windows in tui_show_frame_info (PR tui/13378)Patrick Palka2-16/+64
tui_show_frame_info is responsible for updating the visible windows following a change in frame information (that being the currently selected frame, PC, line number, etc). Currently it always redraws and refreshes each window even if frame information has not changed. This behavior is inefficient and helps contribute to the occassional flickering of the TUI as described in the mentioned PR. This patch makes tui_show_frame_info refresh the windows only if frame information has changed. Determining whether frame information has changed is done indirectly by determining whether the locator has changed. This approach is convenient and yet sensible because the locator contains all the relevant info we need to check anyway: the current PC, the line number, the name of the executable and the name of the current function. Probably only the PC is really necessary to check, but it doesn't hurt to check every field. Effectively, with this patch, consecutive calls to select_frame with the same frame/PC no longer cause TUI's frame information to be updated multiple times. gdb/ChangeLog: PR tui/13378 * tui/tui-stack.c (tui_set_locator_info): Change prototype to return an int instead of void. Return whether the locator window has changed. (tui_show_frame_info): If the locator info has not changed, then bail out early to avoid refreshing the windows.
2015-06-30Correctly initialize the TUI locator windowPatrick Palka2-1/+6
The call to tui_alloc_content in tui_set_locator_info passes locator->type as the type of the window whose content is being allocated. This may seem correct but it's actually not because when this code path actually get executed locator->type has not yet been to set LOCATOR_WIN so it defaults to 0 i.e. SRC_WIN. Thus we allocate the content of the locator window as if it was the source window. This oversight turns out not to be a big deal in practice but the patch that follows depends on the locator's proc_name and full_name arrays to be initialized to the empty string which is done by tui_alloc_content if we pass to it LOCATOR_WIN. This patch fixes this bug by explicitly passing LOCATOR_WIN to tui_alloc_content. gdb/ChangeLog: * tui/tui-stack.c (tui_set_locator_info): Explicitly pass LOCATOR_WIN to tui_alloc_content.

2015-06-29PR threads/18127 - threads spawned by infcall end up stuck in "running" statePedro Alves6-18/+148
Refs: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2015-03/msg00024.html https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2015-06/msg00005.html On GNU/Linux, if an infcall spawns a thread, that thread ends up with stuck running state. This happens because: - when linux-nat.c detects a new thread, it marks them as running, and does not report anything to the core. - we skip finish_thread_state when the thread that is running the infcall stops. As result, that new thread ends up with stuck "running" state, even though it really is stopped. On Windows, _all_ threads end up stuck in running state, not just the one that was spawned. That happens because when a new thread is detected, unlike linux-nat.c, windows-nat.c reports TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS to infrun. It's the fact that that event does not cause a user-visible stop that triggers the problem. When the target is re-resumed, we call set_running with a wildcard ptid, which marks all thread as running. That set_running is not suppressed because the (leader) thread being resumed does not have in_infcall set. Later, when the infcall finally finishes successfully, nothing marks all threads back to stopped. We can trigger the same problem on all targets by having a thread other than the one that is running the infcall report a breakpoint hit to infrun, and then have that breakpoint not cause a stop. That's what the included test does. The fix is to stop GDB from suppressing the set_running calls while doing an infcall, and then set the threads back to stopped when the call finishes, iff they were originally stopped before the infcall started. (Note the MI *running/*stopped event suppression isn't affected.)

2015-06-29[GDBServer][AArch64] Use the same break instruction as GDBPierre Langlois2-6/+15
GDB uses a "brk #0" instruction to perform a software breakpoint while GDBServer uses an illegal instruction. Both instructions should match. When enabling support for the 'Z0' packet, we let GDBServer insert the breakpoint instruction instead of GDB. And in case of permanent breakpoints for example, GDB will check if a breakpoint is inserted in the inferior with `program_breakpoint_here_p (gdbarch, address)', and compare the instruction read from the inferior with the breakpoint instruction. On AArch64, instructions are always little endian so we need to represent it as an array of bytes, as done in aarch64-tdep.c. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: * linux-aarch64-low.c: Remove comment about endianness.
