2018-04-03Change read_alphacoff_dynamic_symtab to use gdb::byte_vectorTom Tromey2-61/+35
This changes read_alphacoff_dynamic_symtab to use gdb::byte_vector. This allows for the removal of some cleanups. Tested by the buildbot; though I don't know whether this code path is ever actually run. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-04-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * mipsread.c (read_alphacoff_dynamic_symtab): Use gdb::byte_vector.

2018-04-02Fix infinite recursion when printing static member with typedefWeimin Pan5-3/+105
The original problem was fixed (see related PR 22242). But using a typedef as the declared type for a static member variable, as commented in this PR, is still causing gdb to get into infinite loop when printing the static member's value. This problem can be reproduced as follows: % cat t.cc class A { typedef A type; public: bool operator==(const type& other) { return true; } static const type INSTANCE; }; const A A::INSTANCE; int main() { A a; if (a == A::INSTANCE) { return -1; } return 0; } % g++ -g t.cc % gdb -ex "start" -ex "p a" a.out The fix is rather trivial - in cp_print_static_field(), should call check_typedef() to get the static member's real type and use it to check whether it's a struct or an array. As Simon suggested, I've added a new test case to the testsuite and am passing the original type, not the real type, as argument to both cp_print_value_fields() and val_print(). Re-tested on both aarch64-linux-gnu and amd64-linux-gnu. No regressions.

2018-04-01Change rs6000_ptrace_ldinfo to return a byte_vectorTom Tromey2-21/+16
This changes rs6000_ptrace_ldinfo to return a byte_vector. I think this points out an existing double-free in rs6000_xfer_shared_libraries. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-04-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * rs6000-nat.c (rs6000_ptrace_ldinfo): Return a byte_vector. (rs6000_xfer_shared_libraries): Update.
2018-04-01Remove char_ptr typedefSimon Marchi3-2/+6
Now that all instances of VEC(char_ptr) are gone, we can remove the typedef. There is just one usage left, that is trivial to replace. Tested by rebuilding on an enable-targets=all build. gdb/ChangeLog: * common/gdb_vecs.h (char_ptr): Remove. * tracepoint.c (encode_actions_1): Remove usage of char_ptr.
2018-03-30Remove usage of VEC(char_ptr) in gdbscm_parse_function_argsSimon Marchi3-11/+10
This is a straightforward replacement, no change in behavior are intended/expected. This is the last usage of VEC(char_ptr), so it can now be removed. gdb/ChangeLog: * guile/scm-utils.c (gdbscm_parse_function_args): Replace VEC with std::vector. * common/gdb_vecs.h (DEF_VEC_P (char_ptr)): Remove.
2018-03-30Use std::vector and std::string instead of VEC(char_ptr) in gdbserver tdescSimon Marchi3-11/+13
This is a straightforward replacement, no change in behavior are intended/expected. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: * tdesc.h (struct target_desc) <features>: Change type to std::vector<std::string>. * tdesc.c (target_desc::~target_desc): Adjust to std::vector changes. (tdesc_get_features_xml): Likewise. (tdesc_create_feature): Likewise.
2018-03-30Use std::vector in uploaded_tpSimon Marchi6-46/+55
This patch changes the VEC(char_ptr) fields in uploaded_tp to use std::vector<char *>. At first, I wanted to creep in more changes, like using std::string, but it was making the patch too big and less focused, so I decided to keep it to just that. It also looks like the strings in those vectors are never free'd. If so, we can fix that in another patch. gdb/ChangeLog: * tracepoint.h (struct uploaded_tp): Initialize fields. <actions, step_actions, cmd_strings>: Change type to std::vector<char *>. * tracepoint.c (get_uploaded_tp): Allocate with new.

2018-03-30Remove some cleanups from solib-svr4.cTom Tromey2-46/+23
This removes a few cleanups from solib-svr4.c in a straightforward way. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * solib-svr4.c (lm_info_read): Use gdb::byte_vector. Return std::unique_ptr. (svr4_keep_data_in_core): Update. (svr4_read_so_list): Update.
2018-03-30Change target_read_string to use unique_xmalloc_ptrTom Tromey11-49/+55
This changes the out parameter of target_read_string to be a unique_xmalloc_ptr. This avoids a cleanup and sets the stage for more cleanup removals. This patch also removes a seemingly needless alloca from print_subexp_standard. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * windows-nat.c (handle_output_debug_string, handle_exception): Update. * target.h (target_read_string): Update. * target.c (target_read_string): Change "string" to unique_xmalloc_ptr. * solib-svr4.c (open_symbol_file_object, svr4_read_so_list): Update. * solib-frv.c (frv_current_sos): Update. * solib-dsbt.c (dsbt_current_sos): Update. * solib-darwin.c (darwin_current_sos): Update. * linux-thread-db.c (inferior_has_bug): Update. * expprint.c (print_subexp_standard) <case OP_OBJC_MSGCALL>: Update. Remove alloca. * ada-lang.c (ada_main_name): Update.
2018-03-30Remove free_dwo_file_cleanupTom Tromey2-30/+27
This removes free_dwo_file_cleanup, the last cleanup in dwarf2read.c. This is replaced with a unique_ptr; which, despite the fact that a dwo_file is obstack-allocated, seemed like the best fit. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf2read.c (struct free_dwo_file_cleanup_data): Remove. (struct dwo_file_deleter): New. (dwo_file_up): New typedef. (open_and_init_dwo_file): Use dwo_file_up. (free_dwo_file_cleanup): Remove.
2018-03-30Remove parameter from free_dwo_fileTom Tromey2-8/+9
The objfile parameter to free_dwo_file is unused, so remove it. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf2read.c (free_dwo_file): Remove "objfile" parameter. (free_dwo_file_cleanup, free_dwo_file_from_slot): Update.
2018-03-30Remove free_cached_comp_units cleanupsTom Tromey2-20/+32
This changes free_cached_comp_units from a cleanup function to an RAII class. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf2read.c (class free_cached_comp_units): New class. (dw2_instantiate_symtab, dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard): Use it. (free_cached_comp_units): Remove function.
2018-03-30Remove make_cleanup_unpush_targetTom Tromey4-27/+31
This removes make_cleanup_unpush_target, replacing it with a unique_ptr. This may seem odd, because the object in question is not actually freed, but unique_ptr provided the necessary functionality. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.h (make_cleanup_unpush_target): Remove. * inf-ptrace.c (struct target_unpusher): New. (target_unpush_up) New typedef. (inf_ptrace_create_inferior, inf_ptrace_attach): Use target_unpush_up. * utils.c (do_unpush_target, make_cleanup_unpush_target): Remove.
2018-03-27Remove cleanups from prompt_for_continueTom Tromey2-7/+6
This removes the cleanups from prompt_for_continue by the use of unique_xmalloc_ptr. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * utils.c (prompt_for_continue): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
2018-03-27Remove cleanups from gdb_readline_wrapperTom Tromey2-57/+59
This removes some cleanups from gdb_readline_wrapper by changing the existing gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup struct to have a constructor and destructor, and then changing gdb_readline_wrapper to simply instantiate it on the stack. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-27 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * top.c (class gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup): Add constructor, destructor. Now a class. (gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup): Remove function. (gdb_readline_wrapper): Remove cleanups.
2018-03-27C++-ify typedef hashTom Tromey6-165/+153
This changes the typedef_hash_table structure to be a C++ class. It adds constructors and destructors and changes some functions to be methods of the class. Then it changes the various users of this class to adapt. This allows for the removal of some cleanups. Regression tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * typeprint.h (struct type_print_options) <local_typedefs, global_typedefs>: Remove "struct" keyword.

2018-03-27Include <cmath> in dwarf-index-write.cTom Tromey2-0/+5
On x86-64 Fedora 26, when building with the system gcc, I get: ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf-index-write.c: In member function ‘void debug_names::build()’: ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf-index-write.c:705:13: error: ‘pow’ is not a member of ‘std’ There are actually more messages, but this is sufficient to show the problem. The fix is to include <cmath>. I'm checking this in as obvious. Tested by building. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-27 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf-index-write.c: Include <cmath>.
2018-03-27set varsize-limit: New GDB setting for maximum dynamic object sizeJoel Brobecker11-0/+167
This is a command we somehow forgot to contribute at the time the Ada language was first contributed to the FSF. This command allows the user to change the maximum size we allow when reading memory from dynamic objects (the default is 65536 bytes). At the moment, this limit is only used by Ada, and so the implementation is kept inside ada-lang.c. However, it is conceivable that other language might want to use it also to handle the same kind of issues; for instance, this might be useful when handling dynamic types in C. So the name of the setting was made language-neutral, to allow for this. Note that an alias for "set var" needs to be introduced as well. We are not adding a test for that, since this is a feature that is already exercized by numerous existing tests. gdb/ChangeLog * NEWS: Add entry describing new "set|show varsize-limit" command. * ada-lang.c (_initialize_ada_language): Add "set/show varsize-limit" command. * printcmd.c (_initialize_printcmd): Add "set var" alias of "set variable". gdb/doc/ChangeLog: * gdb.texinfo (Ada Settings): New subsubsection. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/varsize_limit: New testcase. Tested on x86_64-linux.
2018-03-27Move DWARF index-related things to a separate fileSimon Marchi7-2053/+2256
I want to add a DWARF index-related feature (automatically produce index files when loading objfiles in GDB), but I don't want to add many hundred lines to the already too big dwarf2read.c. I thought it would be a logical split to move everything related to the DWARF index to its own file. I first tried to move everything that reads and writes DWARF indices to a separate file, but found that the "read" part is a little bit entangled with the rest of dwarf2read.c, so the line is hard to draw about where to split. The write part is quite isolated though, so I moved this part to a new file, dwarf-index-write.c. Some things are necessary to both reading and writing indices, so I placed them in dwarf-index-common.{c,h}. The idea would be to have a dwarf-index-read.c eventually that would use it too (for now that code is still in dwarf2read.c). This required moving some things to a new dwarf2read.h header, so they can be read by the code that writes the index. The patch is big in number of lines, but it's all existing code being moved around. The only changes are that some functions are not static anymore, a declaration is added in a .h file, and therefore the comment is moved there. I built-tested it with a little and big endian target. This patch is also available on the users/simark/split-dwarf2read branch. gdb/ChangeLog: * Makefile.in (COMMON_SFILES): Add dwarf-index-common.c and dwarf-index-write.c (HFILES_NO_SRCDIR): Add dwarf-index-common.h and dwarf2read.h. * dwarf-index-common.c: New file. * dwarf-index-common.h: New file. * dwarf-index-write.c: New file. * dwarf2read.c: Include dwarf2read.h and dwarf-index-common.h.

2018-03-27problem looking up some symbols when they have a linkage nameJoel Brobecker23-2/+278
This patch fixes a known failure in gdb.ada/maint_with_ada.exp (maintenance check-psymtabs). Another way to witness the same issue is by considering the following Ada declarations... type Wrapper is record A : Integer; end record; u00045 : constant Wrapper := (A => 16#060287af#); pragma Export (C, u00045, "symada__cS"); ... which declares a variable name "u00045" but with a linkage name which is "symada__cS". This variable is a record with one component, the Ada equivalent of a struct with one field in C. Trying to print that variable's value currently yields: (gdb) p /x <symada__cS> 'symada(char, signed)' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type This indicates that GDB was only able to find the minimal symbol, but not the full symbol. The expected output is: (gdb) print /x <symada__cS> $1 = (a => 0x60287af) The error message gives a hint about what's happening: We processed the symbol through gdb_demangle, which in the case of this particular symbol name, ends up matching the C++ naming scheme. As a result, the demangler transforms our symbol name into 'symada(char, signed)', thus breaking Ada lookups. This patch fixes the issue by first introducing a new language_defn attribute called la_store_sym_names_in_linkage_form_p, which is a boolean to be set to true for the few languages that do not want their symbols to have their names stored in demangled form, and false otherwise. We then use this language attribute to skip the call to gdb_demangle for all languages whose la_store_sym_names_in_linkage_form_p is true. In terms of the selection of languages for which the new attribute is set to true, the selection errs on the side of preserving the existing behavior, and only changes the behavior for the languages where we are certain storing symbol names in demangling form is not needed. It is conceivable that other languages might be in the same situation, but I not knowing in detail the symbol name enconding strategy, I decided to play it safe and let other language maintainers potentially adjust their language if it makes sense to do so. gdb/ChangeLog: PR gdb/22670 * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_physname): Do not return the demangled symbol name if the CU's language stores symbol names in linkage format. * language.h (struct language_defn) <la_store_sym_names_in_linkage_form_p>: New field.

2018-03-26Remove verbose code from backtrace commandTom Tromey2-18/+4
In https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-06/msg00741.html, Pedro asks: > Doesn't the "info verbose on" bit affect frame filters too? The answer is that yes, it could. However, it's not completely effective, because the C code can't guess how many frames might need to be unwound to satisfy the request -- a frame filter will request as many frames as it needs. Also, I tried removing this code from backtrace, and I think the result is better without it. In particular, now the expansion line occurs just before the frame that caused the expansion, like: (gdb) bt no-filters #0 0x00007ffff576cecd in poll () from /lib64/libc.so.6 Reading in symbols for ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/event-loop.c...done. #1 0x00000000007ecc33 in gdb_wait_for_event (block=1) at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/event-loop.c:772 #2 0x00000000007ec006 in gdb_do_one_event () at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/event-loop.c:347 #3 0x00000000007ec03e in start_event_loop () at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/event-loop.c:371 Reading in symbols for ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/main.c...done. #4 0x000000000086693d in captured_command_loop ( Reading in symbols for ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/exceptions.c...done. data=0x0) at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/main.c:325 So, I am proposing this patch to simply remove this code. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * stack.c (backtrace_command_1): Remove verbose code.

This patch changes py-framefilter.c as suggested by Pedro in: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-06/msg00748.html In particular, gdb exceptions are now caught at the outermost layer, rather than in each particular function.

2018-03-26Improve "backtrace" help textTom Tromey2-6/+12
This improves help text in stack.c in two ways. First, it removes trailing newlines from various help strings. I think these are never needed. Second, it adds a "Usage" line to the "backtrace" text, as suggested by Pedro. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * stack.c (_initialize_stack): Remove trailing newlines from help text.

PR backtrace/15584 notes that some code in backtrace_command_1 is not useful when frame filters are in use. This patch moves this code into the no-frame-filters "if".

If a C-c comes while the Python code for a frame filter is running, it will be turned into a Python KeyboardException. It seems good for this to be treated like a GDB quit, so this patch changes py-framefilter.c to notice this situation and call throw_quit in this case. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-framefilter.c (throw_quit_or_print_exception): New function.

PR cli/17716 notes that it is difficult to C-c (or "q" at a pagination prompt) while backtracing using a frame filter. One reason for this is that many places in py-framefilter.c use RETURN_MASK_ALL in a try/catch. This patch changes these spots to use RETURN_MASK_ERROR instead. This is safe to do because this entire file is exception safe now. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR cli/17716: * python/py-framefilter.c (py_print_type, py_print_value) (enumerate_args, py_print_args, gdbpy_apply_frame_filter): Use RETURN_MASK_ERROR.

When a frame filter elides some frames, they are still printed by "bt", indented a few spaces. PR backtrace/15582 notes that it would be nice for users if elided frames could simply be dropped.

2018-03-26Rationalize "backtrace" command line parsingTom Tromey4-73/+57
The backtrace command has peculiar command-line parsing. In particular, it splits the command line, then loops over the arguments. If it sees a word it recognizes, like "full", it effectively drops this word from the argument vector. Then, it pastes together the remaining arguments, passing them on to backtrace_command_1, which in turn passes the resulting string to parse_and_eval_long. The documentation doesn't mention the parse_and_eval_long at all, so it is a bit of a hidden feature that you can "bt 3*2". The strange algorithm above also means you can "bt 3 * no-filters 2" and get 6 frames... This patch changes backtrace's command line parsing to be a bit more rational. Now, special words like "full" are only recognized at the start of the command. This also updates the documentation to describe the various bt options individually. gdb/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * stack.c (backtrace_command): Rewrite command line parsing. gdb/doc/ChangeLog 2018-03-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdb.texinfo (Backtrace): Describe options individually.

2018-03-23aarch64: Make "info address" resolve TLS variablesWeimin Pan3-15/+10
TLS variables can't be resolved on aarch64-linux-gnu Running the test case with upstream gdb shows two failures: (1) Receiving different error messages when printing TLS variable before program runs - because the ARM compiler does not emit dwarf attribute DW_AT_location for TLS, the result is expected and the baseline may need to be changed for aarch64. (2) Using "info address" command on C++ static TLS object resulted in "symbol unresolved" error - below is a snippet from the test case: class K { public: static __thread int another_thread_local; }; __thread int K::another_thread_local; (gdb) info address K::another_thread_local Symbol "K::another_thread_local" is unresolved. This patch contains fix for (2). Function info_address_command() handles the "info address" command and calls lookup_minimal_symbol_and_objfile() to find sym's symbol entry in mininal symbol table if SYMBOL_COMPUTED_OPS (sym) is false. Problem is that function lookup_minimal_symbol_and_objfile() only looked up an objfile's minsym ordinary hash table, not its demangled hash table, which was the reason why the C++ name was not found. The fix is to call lookup_minimal_symbol(), which already looks up entries in both minsym's hash tables, to find names when traversing the object file list in lookup_minimal_symbol_and_objfile(). Tested in both aarch64-linux-gnu and amd64-linux-gnu. No regressions.
2018-03-23Add psymbols for nested typesKeith Seitz7-1/+190
c++/22968 involves the inability of ptype to find a type definition for a type defined inside another type. I recently added some additional support for nested type definitions, but I apparently overlooked psymbols. The user reports that using -readnow fixes the problem: $ gdb 22968 -ex "ptype Outer::Inner" There is no field named Inner $ gdb -readnow 22968 -ex "ptype Outer::Inner" type = struct Outer::Inner { <no data field> } We clearly did not find a psymbol for Outer::Inner because it was located in another CU. This patch addresses this problem by scanning structs for additional psymbols. Rust is already doing this. With this patch, the identical result to "-readnow" is given (without using `-readnow', of course). gdb/ChangeLog: PR c++/22968 * dwarf2read.c (scan_partial_symbols): Scan structs/classes for nested type definitions for C++, too. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: PR c++/22968 * gdb.cp/subtypes.exp: New file. * gdb.cp/subtypes.h: New file. * gdb.cp/subtypes.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/subtypes-2.cc: New file.

2018-03-23gdb: Fix testsuite issue in gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.expAndrew Burgess3-8/+32
This test starts up and confirms that $xmm0 has the value 0, it then modifies $xmm0 (in the inferior) and confirms that the new value can be read (in GDB). On some machines I was noticing that this test would occasionally fail, and on investigation I believe that the reason for this is that the test is linked as a dynamically linked executable and makes use of the system libraries during startup. The reason that this causes problems is that both the runtime linker and the startup code run before main can, and do (on at least some platforms) make use of the XMM registers. In this commit I modify the test program slightly to allow it to be linked statically, without using the startup libraries. Now by the time GDB reaches the symbol main we have only executed one 'nop' instruction, and the XMM registers should all have the value 0. I've extended the test script to confirm that $xmm0 to $xmm15 are all initially 0, and I also check that at the point after $xmm0 has been modified, all the other XMM registers ($xmm1 to $xmm15) are still 0. The test program is still linked against libc in order that we can call the exit function, however, we now call _exit rather than exit in order to avoid all of the usual cleanup that exit does. This clean up tries to tear down things that are usually setup during the startup code, but now this isn't called calling exit will just result in a crash. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.S: Add '_start' label. (done): Call '_exit' not 'exit' to avoid atexit handlers. * gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp: Pass -static, and -nostartfiles when compiling the test. Confirm that all registers xmm0 to xmm15 are initially 0, and that xmm1 to xmm15 are 0 after.
2018-03-23gdb: Minor cleanup in some gdb.arch/* testsAndrew Burgess6-33/+16
A small number of tests incorrectly tried to pass -Wa,-g through to GCC as an extra compile time flag, either to gdb_compile or prepare_for_testing. The problem is that the syntax used for passing the flags was incorrect, and as a result these extra flags were being ignored. Luckily, the 'debug' flag was being passed in each case anyway, which means that the '-g' flag would already be added. Given that all these tests pass 'debug', and the invalid flag has been ignored for some time, I'm just removing the flags in this commit. I've also changed the tests from using gdb_compile to prepare_for_testing, which allows some extra code to be removed from a couple of tests scripts. There should be no change in the test results after this commit. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step-avx.exp: Remove unneeded assembler flag option, syntax was wrong anyway. * gdb.arch/arm-disp-step.exp: Likewise. * gdb.arch/sparc64-regs.exp: Likewise. * gdb.arch/amd64-disp-step.exp: Remove unneeded assembler flag option, syntax was wrong anyway, switch to use prepare_for_testing. * gdb.arch/i386-disp-step.exp: Likewise.
