2017-09-06Fix calls in gdb.arch/thumb2-it.expThomas Preud'homme2-2/+6
Tests in gdb.arch/thumb2-it.exp call functions defined in assembly without type debugging information. Since 7022349d5c86bae74b49225515f42d2e221bd368 ("Stop assuming no-debug-info functions return int") this triggers an error which leads to many tests to FAIL. This patch cast the call to indicate the return type of the functions when calling them. 2017-09-06 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com> gdb/testsuite/ * gdb.arch/thumb2-it.exp: Cast call to assembly defined function.

2017-09-06Fix accessing TLS variables with no debug infoJan Kratochvil5-2/+77
Since 2273f0ac95a7 ("change minsyms not to be relocated at read-time"), printing TLS symbols of objfiles with a non-zero base address, without debug info, fails. E.g., with: $ mv /usr/lib/debug /usr/lib/debug-x to get debug info out of the way, we get: $ echo 'int main(){}' | gcc -pthread -x c - $ ./gdb -q -ex start -ex 'p (int) errno' ./a.out Cannot access memory at address 0xffffef7c0698 instead of the expected: $1 = 0 The regression is not visible with glibc debuginfo installed. The problem is that we compute the address of TLS minsyms incorrectly. To trigger the problem, it is important that the variable is in an objfile with a non-zero base address. While glibc is a shared library for 'errno', it's easier for the testcase to use PIE instead of a shlib. For TLS variables in PT_EXEC the regression obviously does not happen. gdb/ChangeLog 2017-09-06 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> * parse.c (find_minsym_type_and_address): Don't relocate addresses of TLS symbols. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2017-09-06 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> * gdb.threads/tls-nodebug-pie.c: New file. * gdb.threads/tls-nodebug-pie.exp: New file.
2017-09-05Fix leak of auto_obstack objfile_per_bfd_storage->storage_obstack;Philippe Waroquiers2-1/+5
commit 23732b1e32dd58f7c731d9aee56ff0b22a645d53 Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Date: Tue Jun 27 16:22:08 2017 +0100 changed objfile_per_bfd_storage->storage_obstack from 'struct obstack storage_obstack;' to 'auto_obstack storage_obstack;' So the obstack is auto allocated when the objfile_per_bfd_storage ctor is manually called by get_objfile_bfd_data). However, the ctor call was still followed by a manual call to obstack_init (&storage->storage_obstack); This results in a bunch of leaks detected by valgrind, such as: ==24665== 4,064 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 11,469 of 11,590 ==24665== at 0x4C27BF5: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:299) ==24665== by 0x5437B7: xmalloc (common-utils.c:44) ==24665== by 0x77CAA7: _obstack_begin_worker (obstack.c:141) ==24665== by 0x60168F: auto_obstack (gdb_obstack.h:70) ==24665== by 0x60168F: get_objfile_bfd_data(objfile*, bfd*) (objfiles.h:188) ==24665== by 0x601DB6: allocate_objfile(bfd*, char const*, enum_flags<objfile_flag>) (objfiles.c:423) ==24665== by 0x647753: symbol_file_add_with_addrs(bfd*, char const*, enum_flags<symfile_add_flag>, section_addr_info*, enum_flags<objfile_flag>, objfile*) (symfile.c:1158) ==24665== by 0x647C7B: symbol_file_add_separate(bfd*, char const*, enum_flags<symfile_add_flag>, objfile*) (symfile.c:1252) ==24665== by 0x4C7D79: elf_symfile_read(objfile*, enum_flags<symfile_add_flag>) (elfread.c:1270) ==24665== by 0x647CB4: read_symbols(objfile*, enum_flags<symfile_add_flag>) (symfile.c:861) ==24665== by 0x647809: syms_from_objfile_1 (symfile.c:1062) -> remove the manual call to obstack_init.

2017-09-05Don't use -fdiagnostics-color=never for rustcTom Tromey2-1/+11
I noticed that the gdb.rust tests fail because the test suite passes -fdiagnostics-color=never to rustc. This is not a recognized rustc option, and the test suite already handles passing the appropriate option to the Rust compiler. This patch fixes the problem. testsuite/ChangeLog 2017-09-05 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Don't use universal_compile_options for rust.
2017-09-05Test different follow-exec-mode settings in gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.expSimon Marchi2-7/+23
Using follow-exec-mode "new" takes a different code path than "same", so it's interesting to test this path in combination with a change in architecture of the inferior. This test fails if you remove the previous patch. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.exp: Test with different "follow-exec-mode" settings. (do_test): New procedure.
2017-09-05Add thread after updating gdbarch when exec'ingSimon Marchi2-1/+10
As mentioned in the previous patch, we should avoid doing register reads after a process does an exec and before we've updated that inferior's gdbarch. Otherwise, we may interpret the registers using the wrong architecture. When a process does an exec with "follow-exec-mode new", a new inferior is added by follow_exec. The gdbarch of that new inferior is at first set to some default value, probably specific to the gdb build (I get "i386" here), which may not be the right one. It is updated later by the call to target_find_description. Before that point, if we try to read the inferior's registers, we may not interpret them correctly. This has been exposed by a failure in gdb.base/foll-exec-mode.exp after the previous patch, with: Remote 'g' packet reply is too long (expected 312 bytes, got 816 bytes) The call to "add_thread" done just after adding the inferior is problematic, because it ends up reading the registers (because the ptid is re-used, we end up doing a switch_to_thread to it, which tries to update stop_pc). The registers returned by gdbserver are the x86-64 ones, while we try to interpret them using the "i386" gdbarch. Postponing the call to add_thread to until the target description/gdbarch has been updated seems to fix the issue. As to why this issue was uncovered by the previous patch: what I think happened before that patch is that since we were updating stop_pc before switching to the new inferior, we were filling the regcache associated to the ptid (this worked fine as long as the architectures of the previous and new process images were the same). The call to switch_to_thread then worked, because the register read hit the regcache. Now, it triggers a register read, while the gdbarch is not set correctly, leading to the "reply is too long" error. If this is right, it sounds wrong that we delete and re-add a thread with the same ptid, and are able to access the registers from the deleted thread. When we delete a thread, should we clear the regcache associated to that ptid, so that the new thread starts with a fresh/empty regcache? gdb/ChangeLog: * infrun.c (follow_exec): Call add_thread after target_find_description.
2017-09-05Read stop_pc after updating the gdbarch when exec'ingSimon Marchi2-2/+7
When an inferior execs and changes architecture (e.g. 64 bits to 32 bits), the gdbarch associated to the inferior is updated by the follow_exec call in handle_inferior_event_1. We should avoid doing any register read before that point, because the registers sent by the remote side will be those of the new architecture, but we would interpret them using the old architecture. We do just that by setting stop_pc during this window, which obviously requires reading the registers. This results in gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.exp failing, GDB outputting the following error: Truncated register 50 in remote 'g' packet This patch fixes that by postponing the setting of stop_pc to after we've updated the inferior gdbarch. This bug was hiding another problem, and as such introduces some failures in gdb.base/foll-exec-mode.exp. The following patch takes care of that. gdb/ChangeLog: * infrun.c (handle_inferior_event_1): When exec'ing, read stop_pc after follow_exec.
2017-09-05Improve "'g' reply is is to long" error messageSimon Marchi2-1/+6
... by adding the expected size, and the received size. I found this useful when debugging gdbarch/remote issues, since it gives a hint of what gdb expects and what the remote sent. gdb/ChangeLog: * remote.c (process_g_packet): Update error message.

2017-09-05eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard: Factor out function call handlingPedro Alves2-451/+482
While working on the no-debug-info debugging improvements, I found evaluate_subexp_standard's function call code unnecessarily long and hard to navigate and debug. The use of goto doesn't help either. This commit tries to improve things by factoring out the function-call-related code to separate helper functions. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-05 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * eval.c (eval_call, evaluate_funcall): New functions, factored out from ...

2017-09-05Dynamically composite xml in reply to GDBYao Qi15-39/+150
GDBserver still uses pre-generated target descriptions in order to reply to GDB's query on target description (see xml-builtin-generated.c in GDBserver build directory). This patch teaches GDBserver to create XML contents according to the target descriptions rather than using pre-generated ones. First, change target feature c files to pass the feature xml file name to tdesc_create_feature, so that target description in GDBserver can record them, and create XML contents from these features in buffer, like ... <xi:include href="$FEATURE1_XML_NAME"/> <xi:include href="$FEATURE2_XML_NAME"/> ... and send this buffer back to GDB. Note that this patch reuses target_desc.xmltarget a little bit, which is to hold the XML contents dynamically generated in tdesc_get_features_xml. However, it is not xfree'ed in ~target_desc, because we can't tell it is from xstrdup or a literal string. Since we don't delete target_desc, there is no memory leak yet. After we change all target descriptions to the new style, target_desc.xmltarget is from xstrdup, then, we can safely xfree it in ~target_desc. gdb: 2017-09-05 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * arch/tdesc.h (tdesc_create_feature): Add an argument xml. * target-descriptions.c (tdesc_create_feature): Likewise, and adjust code. * features/i386/32bit-avx.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-avx512.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-core.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-linux.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-mpx.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-pkeys.c: Re-generated. * features/i386/32bit-sse.c: Re-generated. gdb/gdbserver: 2017-09-05 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * linux-x86-tdesc.c: Don't include <inttypes.h>.

tdesc_i386_XXX_linux is used in many places in linux-x86-low.c and this patch adds a new function i386_linux_read_description to return the right tdesc according to xcr0. i386_linux_read_description is quite similar to the counterpart in GDB, and the following patch will share the duplicated code, so this patch adds arch/tdesc.h includes the declarations of various tdesc apis which are used by the shared code.

2017-09-05Use VEC for target_desc.reg_defsYao Qi7-32/+61
Nowadays, target_desc.reg_defs is a pointer points to a pre-generated array, which is not flexible. This patch changes it from an array to a VEC so that GDBserver can create target descriptions dynamically later. Instead of using pre-generated array, the -generated.c calls VEC_safe_push to add each register to vector. Since target_desc.reg_defs is used in IPA, we need to build common/vec.c for IPA too. gdb/gdbserver: 2017-09-05 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * Makefile.in (IPA_OBJS): Add vec-ipa.o * regcache.c (get_thread_regcache): Use VEC_length.

2017-09-05Adjust code generated by regformats/regdat.shYao Qi2-8/+13
regformats/regdat.sh generate some *-generated.c files when GDBserver is built. Each .c file has some static variables, which are only used within function init_registers_XXX, like this, static struct reg regs_i386_linux[] = { { "eax", 0, 32 }, { "ecx", 32, 32 }, ... }; static const char *expedite_regs_i386_linux[] = { "ebp", "esp", "eip", 0 }; static const char *xmltarget_i386_linux = "i386-linux.xml"; void init_registers_i386_linux (void) { ... } This patch moves these static variables' definitions to function init_registers_XXX, so the generated files look like this, void init_registers_i386_linux (void) { static struct target_desc tdesc_i386_linux_s; struct target_desc *result = &tdesc_i386_linux_s; static struct reg regs_i386_linux[] = { ... }; static const char *expedite_regs_i386_linux[] = { "ebp", "esp", "eip", 0 }; static const char *xmltarget_i386_linux = "i386-linux.xml"; ... } We want GDBserver create target descriptions dynamically in each init_registers_XXXX functions, so this patch moves all the related code into function init_registers_XXXX, so that the following patch can easily change function init_registers_XXXX to create target description dynamically, rather than using current pre-generated array. gdb: 2017-09-05 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * regformats/regdat.sh: Adjust code order.

2017-09-04Make "p S::method() const::static_var" work tooPedro Alves12-46/+327
Trying to print a function local static variable of a const-qualified method still doesn't work after the previous fixes: (gdb) p 'S::method() const'::static_var $1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3} (gdb) p S::method() const::static_var No symbol "static_var" in specified context. The reason is that the expression parser/evaluator loses the "const", and the above unquoted case is just like trying to print a variable of the non-const overload, if it exists, even. As if the above unquoted case had been written as: (gdb) p S::method()::static_var No symbol "static_var" in specified context. We can see the problem without static vars in the picture. With: struct S { void method (); void method () const; }; Compare: (gdb) print 'S::method(void) const' $1 = {void (const S * const)} 0x400606 <S::method() const> (gdb) print S::method(void) const $2 = {void (S * const)} 0x4005d8 <S::method()> # wrong method! That's what we need to fix. If we fix that, the function local static case starts working. The grammar production for function/method types is this one: exp: exp '(' parameter_typelist ')' const_or_volatile This results in a TYPE_INSTANCE expression evaluator operator. For the example above, we get something like this ("set debug expression 1"): ... 0 TYPE_INSTANCE 1 TypeInstance: Type @0x560fda958be0 (void) 5 OP_SCOPE Type @0x560fdaa544d8 (S) Field name: `method' ... While evaluating TYPE_INSTANCE, we end up in value_struct_elt_for_reference, trying to find the method named "method" that has the prototype recorded in TYPE_INSTANCE. In this case, TYPE_INSTANCE says that we're looking for a method that has "(void)" as parameters (that's what "1 TypeInstance: Type @0x560fda958be0 (void)" above means. The trouble is that nowhere in this mechanism do we communicate to value_struct_elt_for_reference that we're looking for the _const_ overload. value_struct_elt_for_reference only compared parameters, and the non-const "method()" overload has matching parameters, so it's considered the right match... Conveniently, the "const_or_volatile" production in the grammar already records "const" and "volatile" info in the type stack. The type stack is not used in this code path, but we can borrow the information. The patch converts the info in the type stack to an "instance flags" enum, and adds that as another element in TYPE_INSTANCE operators. This type instance flags is then applied to the temporary type that is passed to value_struct_elt_for_reference for matching. The other side of the problem is that methods in the debug info aren't marked const/volatile, so with that in place, the matching never finds const/volatile-qualified methods. The problem is that in the DWARF, there's no indication at all whether a method is const/volatile qualified... For example (c++filt applied to the linkage name for convenience): <2><d3>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <d4> DW_AT_external : 1 <d4> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x3df): method <d8> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <d9> DW_AT_decl_line : 58 <da> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x5b2): S::method() const <de> DW_AT_declaration : 1 <de> DW_AT_object_pointer: <0xe6> <e2> DW_AT_sibling : <0xec> I see the same with both GCC and Clang. The patch works around this by extracting the cv qualification from the "const" and "volatile" in the demangled name. This will need further tweaking for "&" and "const &" overloads, but we don't support them in the parser yet, anyway. The TYPE_CONST changes were necessary otherwise the comparisons in valops.c: if (TYPE_CONST (intype) != TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONST (f, j)) continue; would fail, because when both TYPE_CONST() TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONST() were true, their values were different. BTW, I'm recording the const/volatile-ness of methods in the TYPE_FN_FIELD info because #1 - I'm not sure it's kosher to change the method's type directly (vs having to call make_cv_type to create a new type), and #2 it's what stabsread.c does: ... case 'A': /* Normal functions. */ new_sublist->fn_field.is_const = 0; new_sublist->fn_field.is_volatile = 0; (*pp)++; break; case 'B': /* `const' member functions. */ new_sublist->fn_field.is_const = 1; new_sublist->fn_field.is_volatile = 0; ... After all this, this finally all works: print S::method(void) const $1 = {void (const S * const)} 0x400606 <S::method() const> (gdb) p S::method() const::static_var $2 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3} gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * c-exp.y (function_method, function_method_void): Add current instance flags to TYPE_INSTANCE. * dwarf2read.c (check_modifier): New.

2017-09-04Handle "p 'S::method()::static_var'" (quoted) in symbol lookupPedro Alves6-29/+61
While the previous commit made "p method()::static_var" (no single-quotes) Just Work, if users (or frontends) try wrapping the expression with quotes, they'll get: (gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var' 'S::method()::static_var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type even if we _do_ have debug info for that variable. That's better than the bogus/confusing value what GDB would print before the stop-assuming-int patch: (gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var' $1 = 1 but I think it'd still be nice to make this case Just Work too. In this case, due to the quoting, the C/C++ parser (c-exp.y) interprets the whole expression/string as a single symbol name, and we end up calling lookup_symbol on that name. There's no debug symbol with that fully-qualified name, but since the compiler gives the static variable a mangled linkage name exactly like the above, it appears in the mininal symbols: $ nm -A local-static | c++filt | grep static_var local-static:0000000000601040 d S::method()::static_var ... and that's what GDB happens to find/print. This only happens in C++, note, since for C the compiler uses different linkage names: local-static-c:0000000000601040 d static_var.1848 So while (in C++, not C) function local static variables are given a mangled name that demangles to the same syntax that GDB documents/expects as the way to access function local statics, there's no global symbol in the debug info with that name at all. The debug info for a static local variable for a non-inline function looks like this: <1><2a1>: Abbrev Number: 19 (DW_TAG_subprogram) ... <2><2f7>: Abbrev Number: 20 (DW_TAG_variable) <2f8> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x4e9): static_var <2fc> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <2fd> DW_AT_decl_line : 64 <2fe> DW_AT_type : <0x25> <302> DW_AT_location : 9 byte block: 3 40 10 60 0 0 0 0 0 (DW_OP_addr: 601040) and for an inline function, it looks like this (linkage name run through c++filt for convenience): <2><21b>: Abbrev Number: 16 (DW_TAG_variable) <21c> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x21a): static_var <220> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <221> DW_AT_decl_line : 48 <222> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x200): S::inline_method()::static_var <226> DW_AT_type : <0x25> <22a> DW_AT_external : 1 <22a> DW_AT_location : 9 byte block: 3 a0 10 60 0 0 0 0 0 (DW_OP_addr: 6010a0) (The inline case makes the variable external so that the linker can merge the different inlined copies. It seems like GCC never outputs the linkage name for non-extern globals.) When we read the DWARF, we record the static_var variable as a regular variable of the containing function's block. This makes stopping in the function and printing the variable as usual. The variable just so happens to have a memory address as location. So one way to make "p 'S::method()::static_var'" work would be to record _two_ copies of the symbols for these variables. One in the function's scope/block, with "static_var" as name, as we currently do, and another in the static or global blocks (depending on whether the symbol is external), with a fully-qualified name. I wrote a prototype patch for that, and it works. For the non-inline case above, since the debug info doesn't point to the linkage same, that patch built the physname of the static local variable as the concat of the physname of the containing function, plus "::", plus the variable's name. We could make that approach work for C too, though it kind of feels awkward to record fake symbol names like that in C. The other approach I tried is to change the C++ symbol lookup routines instead. This is the approach this commit takes. We can already lookup up symbol in namespaces and classes, so this feels like a good fit, and was easy enough. The advantage is that this doesn't require recording extra symbols. The test in gdb.cp/m-static.exp that exposed the need for this is removed, since the same functionality is now covered by gdb.cp/local-static.exp. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cp-namespace.c (cp_search_static_and_baseclasses): Handle function/method scopes; lookup the nested name as a function local static variable. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.base/local-static.exp: Also test with class::method::variable wholly quoted. * gdb.cp/m-static.exp (class::method::variable): Remove test.
2017-09-04Handle "p S::method()::static_var" in the C++ parserPedro Alves10-2/+405
This commit makes "print S::method()::static_var" actually find the debug symbol for static_var. Currently, you get: (gdb) print S::method()::static_var A syntax error in expression, near `'. Quoting the whole string would seemingly work before the previous patch that made GDB stop assuming int for no-debug-info variables: (gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var' $1 = 1 ... except that's incorrect output, because: (gdb) ptype 'S::method()::static_var' type = <data variable, no debug info> The way to make it work correctly currently is by quoting the function/method part, like this: (gdb) print 'S::method()'::static_var $1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3} (gdb) ptype 'S::method()'::static_var type = struct aggregate { int i1; int i2; int i3; } At least after the "stop assuming int" patch, this is what we now get: (gdb) p 'S::method()::static_var' 'S::method()::static_var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type (gdb) p (struct aggregate) 'S::method()::static_var' $1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3} However, IMO, users shouldn't really have to care about any of this. GDB should Just Work, without quoting, IMO. So here's a patch that implements support for that in the C++ parser. With this patch, you now get: (gdb) p S::method()::S_M_s_var_aggregate $1 = {i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3} (gdb) ptype S::method()::S_M_s_var_aggregate type = struct aggregate { int i1; int i2; int i3; } gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> (%type <voidval>): Add function_method. * c-exp.y (exp): New production for calls with no arguments.

2017-09-04Stop assuming no-debug-info variables have type intPedro Alves18-68/+343
An earlier commit made GDB no longer assume no-debug-info functions return int. This commit gives the same treatment to variables. Currently, you can end misled by GDB over output like this: (gdb) p var $1 = -1 (gdb) p /x var $2 = 0xffffffff until you realize that GDB is assuming that the variable is an "int", because: (gdb) ptype var type = <data variable, no debug info> You may try to fix it by casting, but that doesn't really help: (gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var $3 = 0xffffffffffffffff # incorrect ^^ That's incorrect output, because the variable was defined like this: uint64_t var = 0x7fffffffffffffff; ^^ What happened is that with the cast, GDB did an int -> 'unsigned long long' conversion instead of reinterpreting the variable as the cast-to type. To get at the variable properly you have to reinterpret the variable's address manually instead, with either: (gdb) p /x *(unsigned long long *) &var $4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff (gdb) p /x {unsigned long long} &var $5 = 0x7fffffffffffffff After this commit GDB does it for you. This is what you'll get instead: (gdb) p var 'var' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type (gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) var $1 = 0x7fffffffffffffff As in the functions patch, the "compile" machinery doesn't currently have the cast-to type handy, so it continues assuming no-debug variables have int type, though now at least it warns. The change to gdb.cp/m-static.exp deserves an explanation: - gdb_test "print 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \ + gdb_test "print (int) 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar'" "\\$\[0-9\]+ = 4" \ That's printing the "sintvar" function local static of the "gnu_obj_1::method()" method. The problem with that test is that that "'S::method()::static_var'" syntax doesn't really work in C++ as you'd expect. The way to make it work correctly currently is to quote the method part, not the whole expression, like: (gdb) print 'gnu_obj_1::method()'::sintvar If you wrap the whole expression in quotes, like in m-static.exp, what really happens is that the parser considers the whole string as a symbol name, but there's no debug symbol with that name. However, local statics have linkage and are given a mangled name that demangles to the same string as the full expression, so that's what GDB prints. After this commit, and without the cast, the print in m-static.exp would error out saying that the variable has unknown type: (gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar' 'gnu_obj_1::method()::sintvar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type TBC, if currently (even before this series) you try to print any function local static variable of type other than int, you'll get bogus results. You can see that with m-static.cc as is, even. Printing the "svar" local, which is a boolean (1 byte) still prints as "int" (4 bytes): (gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' $1 = 1 (gdb) ptype 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' type = <data variable, no debug info> This probably prints some random bogus value on big endian machines. If 'svar' was of some aggregate type (etc.) we'd still print it as int, so the problem would have been more obvious... After this commit, you'll get instead: (gdb) p 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' 'gnu_obj_1::method()::svar' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type ... so at least GDB is no longer misleading. Making GDB find the real local static debug symbol is the subject of the following patches.

2017-09-04evaluate_subexp_standard: Eliminate one gotoPedro Alves2-55/+60
A following patch will want to factor out a bit of evaluate_subexp_standard, and it'd be handy to reuse the code under the "nosideret:" label there too. This commits moves it to a separate function as preparation for that. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * eval.c (eval_skip_value): New function.

2017-09-04Make ptype/whatis print function name of functions with no debug info tooPedro Alves4-9/+28
The patch to make GDB stop assuming functions return int left GDB with an inconsistency. While with normal expression evaluation the "unknown return type" error shows the name of the function that misses debug info: (gdb) p getenv ("PATH") 'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type ^^^^^^ which is handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not: (gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH") function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type ^^^^^^^^ This commit builds on the new OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE to fix it, by making OP_FUNCALL extract the function name from the symbol stored in OP_VAR_VALUE/OP_VAR_MSYM_VALUE. We now get the same error in "print" vs "ptype": (gdb) ptype getenv() 'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type (gdb) p getenv() 'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * eval.c (evaluate_subexp_standard): <OP_FUNCALL>: Extract function name from symbol/minsym and pass it to error_call_unknown_return_type. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2017-09-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.base/nodebug.exp: Test that ptype's error about functions with unknown return type includes the function name too.
