In gdb/nat/linux-btrace.c:btrace_this_cpu() we initialize the cpu
structure given to the libipt btrace decoder.
We only consider the extended model field for family 0x6 and forget about
family 0xf and we don't consider the extended family field. Fix it.

I noticed an address in a test name:
...
PASS: gdb.base/eh_return.exp: gdb_breakpoint: \
set breakpoint at *0x000000000040071b
...
Stabilize the test name by using "set breakpoint on address" instead.
Likewise in two other test-cases.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

Propagate fix from commit 17c68d98f74 ("[gdb/testsuite] Disable styling in host

Tested on x86_64-linux.

I noticed that running test-case gdb.mi/mi-exec-run.exp with host board
local-remote-host.exp takes about 44 seconds.
I found two silent timeouts responsible for this.
The first is in mi_gdb_exit, where we have:
...
if { [is_remote host] && [board_info host exists fileid] } {
send_gdb "999-gdb-exit\n"
gdb_expect 10 {
-re "y or n" {
send_gdb "y\n"
exp_continue
}
-re "Undefined command.*$gdb_prompt $" {
send_gdb "quit\n"
exp_continue
}
-re "DOSEXIT code" { }
}
}
...
so in gdb.log we see:
...
999-gdb-exit^M
999^exit^M
=thread-exited,id="1",group-id="i1"^M
=thread-group-exited,id="i1"^M
...
after which expect just waits for the timeout.
Fix this by adding a gdb_expect clause to parse the exit:
...
-re "\r\n999\\^exit\r\n" { }
...
Note that we're not parsing the thread-exited/thread-group-exited messages, because
they may not be present:
...
$ gdb -i=mi
=thread-group-added,id="i1"
(gdb)
999-gdb-exit
999^exit
$
...
After fixing that, we have:
...
(gdb) ^M
saw mi error
PASS: gdb.mi/mi-exec-run.exp: inferior-tty=separate: mi=separate: \
force-fail=1: run failure detected
quit^M
&"quit\n"^M
...
What seems to be happening is that default_gdb_exit sends a cli interpreter
quit command to an mi interpreter, after which again expect just waits for the
timeout.
Fix this by adding mi_gdb_exit to the end of the test-case, as in many other
gdb.mi/*.exp test-cases.
After these two fixes, the test-case takes about 4 seconds.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

I build gdb using -O2, and ran the testsuite using taskset -c 0, and ran into:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp: sysroot=: \
action=delete: setup: adjust sysroot
builtin_spawn gdbserver --once localhost:2385 /connect-with-no-symbol-file^M

localhost:2385: Connection timed out.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp: sysroot=: \
action=delete: connection to GDBserver succeeded
...
The expected series of events is (skipping disconnect and detach as I don't
think they're relevant to the problem):
- enter scenario "permission"
- cp $exec.bak $exec
- gdbserver start with $exec
- chmod 000 $exec
- connect to gdbserver
- enter scenario "delete"
- cp $exec.bak $exec
- gdbserver start with $exec
- delete $exec
- connect to gdbserver
The problem is that the chmod is executed using remote_spawn:
...
} elseif { $action == "permission" } {
remote_spawn target "chmod 000 $target_exec"
}
...
without waiting on the resulting spawn id, so we're not sure when the
chmod will have effect.
The FAIL we're seeing above is explained by the chmod having effect during the
delete scenario, after the "cp $exec.bak $exec" and before the "gdbserver
start with $exec".
Fix this by using remote_exec instead.
Likewise, fix a similar case in gdb.mi/mi-exec-run.exp.

pattern for Guile >= 2.2
Since commit 90319cefe3 ("GDB/Guile: Don't assert that an integer value
is boolean"), I see:
FAIL: gdb.guile/scm-parameter.exp: kind=PARAM_ZINTEGER: test-PARAM_ZINTEGER-param: guile (set-parameter-value! test-PARAM_ZINTEGER-param #:unlimited)
FAIL: gdb.guile/scm-parameter.exp: kind=PARAM_ZUINTEGER: test-PARAM_ZUINTEGER-param: guile (set-parameter-value! test-PARAM_ZUINTEGER-param #:unlimited)
This comes from the fact that GDB outputs this:
ERROR: In procedure set-parameter-value!:
In procedure gdbscm_set_parameter_value_x: Wrong type argument in position 2 (expecting integer): #:unlimited
Error while executing Scheme code.
while the test expects an additional "ERROR:" on the second line,
something like this:
ERROR: In procedure set-parameter-value!:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_set_parameter_value_x: Wrong type argument in position 2 (expecting integer): #:unlimited
Error while executing Scheme code.
Guile 2.0 outputs the `ERROR:` on the second line, while later versions
do not. Change the pattern to accept both outputs. This is similar to
commit 6bbe1a929c6 ("[gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.guile/scm-breakpoint.exp

Arm v8-M Architecture Reference Manual,
D1.2.95 EXC_RETURN, Exception Return Payload
describes ES bit:
"ES, bit [0]
Exception Secure. The security domain the exception was taken to.
The possible values of this bit are:
0 Non-secure.
1 Secure"
arm-tdep.c:3443, arm_m_exception_cache () function tests this bit:
exception_domain_is_secure = (bit (lr, 0) == 0);
The test is negated!
Later on line 3553, the condition evaluates if an additional state
context is stacked:
/* With the Security extension, the hardware saves R4..R11 too. */
if (tdep->have_sec_ext && secure_stack_used
&& (!default_callee_register_stacking || exception_domain_is_secure))
RM, B3.19 Exception entry, context stacking
reads:
RPLHM "In a PE with the Security Extension, on taking an exception,
the PE hardware:
...
2. If exception entry requires a transition from Secure state to
Non-secure state, the PE hardware extends the stack frame and also
saves additional state context."
So we should test for !exception_domain_is_secure instead of non-negated
value!
These two bugs compensate each other so unstacking works correctly.
But another test of exception_domain_is_secure (negated due to the
first bug) prevents arm_unwind_secure_frames to work as expected:
/* Unwinding from non-secure to secure can trip security
measures. In order to avoid the debugger being
intrusive, rely on the user to configure the requested
mode. */
if (secure_stack_used && !exception_domain_is_secure
&& !arm_unwind_secure_frames)

In the lockup state the PC value of the the outer frame is irreversibly
lost. The other registers are intact so LR likely contains
PC of some frame next to the outer one, but we cannot analyze
the nearest outer frame without knowing its PC
therefore we do not know SP fixup for this frame.
The frame unwinder possibly gets mad due to the wrong SP value.
To prevent problems terminate unwinding if PC contains the magic
value of the lockup state.
Example session wihtout this change,
Cortex-M33 CPU in lockup, gdb 13.0.50.20221016-git:

gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp
This test fails quite reliably for me when ran as:
$ taskset -c 1 make check TESTS="gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp" RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver"
or more simply:
$ make check-read1 TESTS="gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp"
The problem is that the gdb_test_multiple call that grabs the frame id
from "maint print frame-id" does not consume the prompt. Well, it does
sometimes due to the trailing .*, but not always. If the prompt is not
consumed, the tests that follow get confused:
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp: gdb_breakpoint: set breakpoint at *foo
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp: disassemble foo
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp: get $sp and frame base in foo: get hexadecimal valueof "$sp"
... many more ...
Use -wrap to make gdb_test_multiple consume the prompt.
While at it, remove the bit that consumes the command name and do
exp_continue, it's not really necessary. And for consistency, do the
same changes to the gdb_test_multiple that consumes the stack address,
although that one was fine, it did consume the prompt explicitly.

On openSUSE Tumbleweed I run into this for the dwarf assembly test-cases, and

The idiom for arm seems to be to use %progbits instead, see commit 9a5911c08be
("gdb/testsuite/gdb.dwarf2: Replace @ with % for ARM compatability"), so
hand-edit gdb/testsuite/gdb.arch/arm-disp-step.S to use %progbits instead.

PR symtab/29694 points out a regression caused by the new DWARF
scanner when the cc-with-gdb-index target board is used.
What happens here is that an older version of gdb will make an index
describing the "A" type as:
[737] A: 1 [global, type]
whereas the new gdb says:
[1008] A: 0 [global, type]
Here the old one is correct because the A in CU 0 is just a
declaration without a size:
<1><45>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_structure_type)
<46> DW_AT_name : A
<48> DW_AT_declaration : 1
<48> DW_AT_sibling : <0x6d>
This patch fixes the problem by introducing the idea of a "type
declaration". I think gdb still needs to recurse into these types,
searching for methods, but by marking the type itself as a
declaration, gdb can skip this type during lookups and when writing
the index.
Regression tested on x86-64 using the cc-with-gdb-index board.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29694

A user noticed that gdb would crash when printing a packed array after
doing "set lang c". Packed arrays don't exist in C, but it's
occasionally useful to print things in C mode when working in a non-C
language -- this lets you see under the hood a little bit.
The bug here is that generic value printing does not handle packed
arrays at all. This patch fixes the bug by introducing a new function
to extract a value from a bit offset and width.
The new function includes a hack to avoid problems with some existing
test cases when using -fgnat-encodings=all. Cleaning up this code
looked difficult, and since "all" is effectively deprecated, I thought
it made sense to simply work around the problems.
|
|
A user found a bug where an array of packed arrays was printed
incorrectly. The bug here is that the packed array has a bit stride,
but the outer array does not -- and should not. However,
update_static_array_size does not distinguish between an array of
packed arrays and a multi-dimensional packed array, and for the
latter, only the innermost array will end up with a stride.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a flag to indicate whether a
given array type is a constituent of a multi-dimensional array.

Currently, when using GDB to do reverse debugging, if we try to use the
command "reverse next" to skip a recursive function, instead of skipping
all of the recursive calls and stopping in the previous line, we stop at
the second to last recursive call, and need to manually step backwards
until we leave the first call. This is well documented in PR gdb/16678.
This bug happens because when GDB notices that a reverse step has
entered into a function, GDB will add a step_resume_breakpoint at the
start of the function, then single step out of the prologue once that
breakpoint is hit. The problem was happening because GDB wouldn't give
that step_resume_breakpoint a frame-id, so the first time the breakpoint
was hit, the inferior would be stopped. This is fixed by giving the
current frame-id to the breakpoint.
This commit also changes gdb.reverse/step-reverse.c to contain a
recursive function and attempt to both, skip it altogether, and to skip
the second call from inside the first call, as this setup broke a
previous version of the patch.
|
|
When GDB is stopped at a ret instruction and no debug information is
available for unwinding, GDB defaults to the amd64 epilogue unwinder, to
be able to generate a decent backtrace. However, when calculating the
frame id, the epilogue unwinder generates information as if the return
instruction was the whole frame.
This was an issue especially when attempting to reverse debug, as GDB
would place a step_resume_breakpoint from the epilogue of a function if
we were to attempt to skip that function, and this breakpoint should
ideally have the current function's frame_id to avoid other problems
such as PR record/16678.
This commit changes the frame_id calculation for the amd64 epilogue,
so that it is always the same as the dwarf2 unwinder's frame_id.
It also adds a test to confirm that the frame_id will be the same,
regardless of using the epilogue unwinder or not, thanks to Andrew
Burgess.

Similarly to booleans and following the fix for PR python/29217 make
`gdb.parameter' accept `None' for `unlimited' with parameters of the
PARAM_UINTEGER, PARAM_INTEGER, and PARAM_ZUINTEGER_UNLIMITED types, as
`None' is already returned by parameters of the two former types, so

already covered, and verify a choice of existing GDB parameters. Add
verification for reading parameters via `<parameter>.value' in addition
to `gdb.parameter('<parameter>')' as this covers different code paths.

Do not assert that a value intended for an integer parameter, of either
the PARAM_UINTEGER or the PARAM_ZUINTEGER_UNLIMITED type, is boolean,
causing error messages such as:
ERROR: In procedure make-parameter:
ERROR: In procedure gdbscm_make_parameter: Wrong type argument in position 15 (expecting integer or #:unlimited): 3
Error while executing Scheme code.
when initialization with a number is attempted. Instead assert that it
is integer. Keep matching `#:unlimited' keyword as an alternative. Add
suitable test cases.

With gcc 7.5.0 and test-case gdb.base/rtld-step.exp, I run into:
...
gdb compile failed, gcc: error: unrecognized command line option \
'-static-pie'; did you mean '-static'?
...
Silence this by checking in the test-case that -static-pie is supported, and
emitting instead:
...
UNTESTED: gdb.base/rtld-step.exp: \
failed to compile (-static-pie not supported or static libc missing)
...
Tested on x86_64-linux, with:
- gcc 7.5.0: UNTESTED
- gcc 12.2.1 with static glibc not installed: UNTESTED
- gcc 12.2.1 with static glibc installed: PASS

In a later commit in this series I will propose removing all of the
explicit gdbpy_initialize_* calls from python.c and replace these
calls with a more generic mechanism.
One of the side effects of this generic mechanism is that the order in
which the various Python sub-systems within GDB are initialized is no
longer guaranteed.
On the whole I don't think this matters, most of the sub-systems are
independent of each other, though testing did reveal a few places
where we did have dependencies, though I don't think those
dependencies were explicitly documented in comment anywhere.
This commit is similar to the previous one, and fixes the second
dependency issue that I found.
In this case the finish_breakpoint_object_type uses the
breakpoint_object_type as its tp_base, this means that
breakpoint_object_type must have been initialized with a call to
PyType_Ready before finish_breakpoint_object_type can be initialized.
Previously we depended on the ordering of calls to
gdbpy_initialize_breakpoints and gdbpy_initialize_finishbreakpoints in
python.c.
After this commit a new function gdbpy_breakpoint_init_breakpoint_type
exists, this function ensures that breakpoint_object_type has been
initialized, and can be called from any gdbpy_initialize_* function.
I feel that this change makes the dependency explicit, which I think
is a good thing.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

This commit removes the first dependency issue, with this and the next
commit, all of the implicit inter-sub-system dependencies will be
replaced by explicit dependencies, which will allow me to, I think,
clean up how the sub-systems are initialized.
The dependency is around the py_insn_type. This type is setup in
gdbpy_initialize_instruction and used in gdbpy_initialize_record.
Rather than depend on the calls to these two functions being in a
particular order, in this commit I propose adding a new function
py_insn_get_insn_type. This function will take care of setting up the
py_insn_type type and calling PyType_Ready. This helper function can
be called from gdbpy_initialize_record and
gdbpy_initialize_instruction, and the py_insn_type will be initialized
just once.
To me this is better, the dependency is now really obvious, but also,
we no longer care in which order gdbpy_initialize_record and
gdbpy_initialize_instruction are called.

Some int to bool conversion in breakpoint.c. I've only updated the
function signatures of static functions, but I've updated some
function local variables throughout the file.

I noticed that we could make use of a scoped_restore in the function
unduplicated_should_be_inserted. I've also converted the function
return type from int to bool.
This change shouldn't make any difference, as I don't think anything
within should_be_inserted could throw an exception, but the change
doesn't hurt, and will help keep us safe if anything ever changes in
the future.

I was doing some int to bool cleanup in update_watchpoint, and I
noticed a manual version of scoped_restore_selected_frame. As always
when these things are done manually, there is the chance that, in an
error case, we might leave the wrong frame selected.
This commit updates things to use scoped_restore_selected_frame, and
also converts a local variable from int to bool.
The only user visible change after this commit is in the case where
update_watchpoint throws an error - we should now correctly restore
the previously selected frame. Otherwise, this commit should be
invisible to the user.

With test-case gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp and check-read1, I run
into:
...
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp: local_url: \
file fetch_src_and_symbols (got interactive prompt)
...
The problem is that this output:
...
Enable debuginfod for this session? (y or [n]) y^M
...
is matched using regexp "Enable debuginfod?.*" with matches only the first two
words of the output, after which an implicit clause in gdb_test_multiple triggers
on the second part containing the interactive prompt.
Fix this by included the interactive prompt in the regexp.

With test-case gdb.mi/mi-disassemble.exp and check-read1 I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-disassemble.exp: disassemble /b main
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-disassemble.exp: get valueof "*((unsigned char *) 0x400549)"
...
The problem for both FAILs is that the output is parsed using
gdb_test_multiple, which has implicit clauses using $gdb_prompt, which can
match before the explicit clauses using $mi_gdb_prompt.
Fix this by passing -prompt "$mi_gdb_prompt$" to gdb_test_multiple.

See the remarks in rtld-step.exp for a description of what this
test is about.
This test case has been tested using gcc on the following x86-64 Linux
distributions/releases:
Fedora 28
Fedora 32
Fedora 33
Fedora 34
Fedora 35
Fedora 36
Fedora 37
rawhide (f38)
RHEL 9.1
Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
It's also been tested (and found to be working) with
RUNTESTFLAGS="CC_FOR_TARGET=clang" on all of the above expect for
Fedora 28. The (old) version of clang available on F28 did not
accept the -static-pie option.
I also tried to make this test work on FreeBSD 13.1. While I think I
made significant progress, I was ultimately stymied by this message
which occurs when attempting to run the main program which has been
set to use the fake/pretend RTLD as the ELF interpreter:
ELF interpreter /path/to/rtld-step-rtld not found, error 22
I have left one of the flags (-static) in place which I believe
to be needed for FreeBSD (though since I never got it to work, I
don't know for sure.) I've also left some declarations needed
for FreeBSD in rtld-step-rtld.c. They're currently disabled via
a #if 0; you'll need to enable them if you want to try to make
it work on FreeBSD.

At present, GDB does not allow for the debugging of the runtime loader
and/or dynamic linker. Much of the time, this makes sense. An
application programmer doesn't normally want to see symbol resolution
code when stepping into a function that hasn't been resolved yet.
But someone who wishes to debug the runtime loader / dynamic linker
might place a breakpoint in that code and then wish to debug it
as normal. At the moment, this is not possible. Attempting to step
will cause GDB to internally step (and not stop) until code
unrelated to the dynamic linker is reached.
This commit makes a minor change to infrun.c which allows the dynamic
loader / linker to be debugged in the case where a step, next, etc.
is initiated from within that code.
While developing this fix, I tried some approaches which weren't quite
right. The GDB testusite definitely contains tests which FAIL when
it's done incorrectly. (At one point, I saw 17 regressions!) This
commit has been tested on x86-64 linux with no regressions.

handle_jit_event.

Currently, every internal_error call must be passed __FILE__/__LINE__
explicitly, like:
internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__, "foo %d", var);
The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.
The non-mechanical changes are in gdbsupport/errors.h,
gdbsupport/gdb_assert.h, and gdb/gdbarch.py.

I spotted that the gdb.gdb/unittest.exp script causes a temporary file
inserters_extractors-2.txt to be created in build/gdb/testsuite/
instead of in build/gdb/testsuite/output/gdb.gdb/unittest/.
This is because some of the 'maint selftest' tests create temporary
files in GDB's current directory, specifically, the two source files:
gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/inserters/wchar_t/2.cc
gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/inserters/char/2.cc
both create a temporary file called inserters_extractors-2.txt, though
we only run the second of these as part of GDB's selftests.
I initially proposed just using GDB's 'cd' command in unittest.exp to
switch to the test output directory before running the selftests,
however, Pedro pointed out that there was a risk here that, if GDB
crashed during shutdown, the generated core file would be left in the
test output directory rather than in the testsuite directory. As a
result, our clever core file spotting logic would fail to spot the
core file and alert the user.
Instead, I propose this slightly more involved solution. I've added a
new with_gdb_cwd directory proc, used like this:
with_gdb_cwd $directory {
# Tests here...
}
The new proc temporarily switches to $directory and then runs the
tests within the block. After running the tests the previous current
working directory is restored.
Additionally, after switching back to the previous cwd, we check that
GDB is still responsive. This means that if GDB crashed immediately
prior to restoring the previous directory, and left the core file in
the wrong place, then the responsiveness check will fail, and a FAIL
will be emitted, this should be enough to alert the user that
something has gone wrong.
With this commit in place the unittest.exp script now leaves its
temporary file in the test output directory.

I spotted that the test gdb.dwarf2/dw2-using-debug-str.exp was
creating an output file called debug_str_section in the root
build/gdb/testsuite directory instead of using the
build/gdb/testsuite/output/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-using-debug-str/ directory.
This appears to be caused by a missing '$' character. We setup a
variable debug_str_section which contains a path within the output
directory, but then when we build the objcopy command we use
'debug_str_section' without a '$' prefix, as a result, we create the
debug_str_section file.
This commit adds the missing '$', the file is now created in the
output directory.

Allows aarch64-pe to be targeted natively, not having to use objcopy to convert it from ELF to PE.
