Remove it, change users (well, a single one) to use all_bp_locations.
This requires moving all_bp_locations to breakpoint.h to expose it.

Now that we have range functions that let us use ranged for loops, we
can remove iterate_over_breakpoints in favor of those, which are easier
to read and write. This requires exposing the declaration of
all_breakpoints and all_breakpoints_safe in breakpoint.h, as well as the
supporting types.
Change some users of iterate_over_breakpoints to use all_breakpoints,
when they don't need to delete the breakpoint, and all_breakpoints_safe
otherwise.

* breakpoint.h (iterate_over_breakpoints): Remove. Update
callers to use all_breakpoints or all_breakpoints_safe.

Add the all_bp_locations_at_addr function, which returns a range of all
breakpoint locations at exactly the given address. This lets us
replace:
bp_location *loc, **loc2p, *locp;
ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR (loc2p, locp, address)
{
loc = *loc2p;
// use loc
}
with
for (bp_location *loc : all_bp_locations_at_addr (address))
{
// use loc
}
The all_bp_locations_at_addr returns a bp_locations_at_addr_range
object, which is really just a wrapper around two std::vector iterators
representing the beginning and end of the interesting range. These
iterators are found when constructing the bp_locations_at_addr_range
object using std::equal_range, which seems a perfect fit for this use
case.
One thing I noticed about the current ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR is that
if you call it with a NULL start variable, that variable gets filled in
and can be re-used for subsequent iterations. This avoids the cost of
finding the start of the interesting range again for the subsequent
iterations. This happens in build_target_command_list, for example.
The same effect can be achieved by storing the range in a local
variable, it can be iterated on multiple times.
Note that the original comment over ALL_BP_LOCATIONS_AT_ADDR says:
Iterates through locations with address ADDRESS for the currently
selected program space.
I don't see anything restricting the iteration to a given program space,
as we iterate over all bp_locations, which as far as I know contains all
breakpoint locations, regardless of the program space. So I just
dropped that part of the comment.

Add the all_bp_locations function to replace the ALL_BP_LOCATIONS macro.
For simplicity, all_bp_locations simply returns a const reference to the
bp_locations vector. But the callers just treat it as a range to
iterate on, so if we ever change the breakpoint location storage, we can
change the all_bp_locations function to return some other range type,
and the callers won't need to be changed.

* breakpoint.c (ALL_BP_LOCATIONS): Remove, update users to use
all_bp_locations.

Change the type of the global location list, bp_locations, to be an
std::vector.
Adjust the users to deal with that, mostly in an obvious way by using
.data() and .size(). The user where it's slightly less obvious is
update_global_location_list. There, we std::move the old location list
out of the global vector into a local variable. The code to fill the
new location list gets simpler, as it's now simply using .push_back(),
no need to count the locations beforehand.
In the rest of update_global_location_list, the code is adjusted to work
with indices instead of `bp_location **`, to iterate on the location
list. I believe it's a bit easier to understand this way. But more
importantly, when we build with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, the operator[] of the
vector does bound checking, so we will know if we ever access past a
vector size (which we won't if we access by raw pointer). I think that
work can further be done to make that function easier to understand,
notably find better names than "loc" and "loc2" for variables, but
that's work for later.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (bp_locations): Change to std::vector, update all
users.

Add the breakpoint::locations method, which returns a range that can be
used to iterate over a breakpoint's locations. This shortens
for (bp_location *loc = b->loc; loc != nullptr; loc = loc->next)
into
for (bp_location *loc : b->locations ())
Change all the places that I found that could use it.

Same idea as the previous patches, but to replace the ALL_TRACEPOINTS
macro. Define a new filtered_iterator that only keeps the breakpoints
for which is_tracepoint returns true (just like the macro did).
I would have like to make it so tracepoint_range yields some
`tracepoint *` instead of some `breakpoint *`, that would help simplify
the callers, who wouldn't have to do the cast themselves. But I didn't
find an obvious way to do it. It can always be added later.
It turns out there is already an all_tracepoints function, which returns
a vector containing all the breakpoints that are tracepoint. Remove it,
most users will just work seamlessly with the new function. The
exception is start_tracing, which iterated multiple times on the vector.
Adapt this one so it iterates multiple times on the returned range.
Since the existing users of all_tracepoints are outside of breakpoint.c,
this requires defining all_tracepoints and a few supporting types in
breakpoint.h. So, move breakpoint_iterator from breakpoint.c to
breakpoint.h.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.h (all_tracepoints): Remove.
(breakpoint_iterator): Move here.

Same as the previous patch, but intended to replace the
ALL_BREAKPOINTS_SAFE macro, which allows deleting the current breakpoint
while iterating. The new range type simply wraps the range added by the
previous patch with basic_safe_range.
I didn't remove the ALL_BREAKPOINTS_SAFE macro, because there is one
spot where it's more tricky to remove, in the
check_longjmp_breakpoint_for_call_dummy function. More thought it
needed for this one.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.c (breakpoint_safe_range): New.

be used to iterate on breakpoints. Replace all uses of the
ALL_BREAKPOINTS macro with this.
In one instance, I could replace the breakpoint iteration with a call to
get_breakpoint.

An earlier patch in this series fixed a dependency problem between two
_initialize functions. That problem was uncovered by reversing the
order of the initialize function calls.
In short, symtab.c tried to add the alias "maintenance
flush-symbol-cache" for the command "maintenance flush symbol-cache".
Because the "maintenance flush" prefix command was not yet created (it
happens in maint.c, initialized later in this reversed order), the
add_alias_cmd function returned NULL. That result was passed to
deprecate_cmd, which didn't expected that value, and that caused a
segfault. This was fixed by changing alias creation functions to take
the target command as a cmd_list_element, instead of by name.
This patch adds a runtime option to reverse the order of the initialize
calls at will. I chose to use an environment variable for this, over a
parameter (even a "maintenance" one), because:
- The init functions are called before the early init commands are
executed, so we could use -iex to turn this mode on early enough.
This is obvious when you remember that commands / parameters are
created by initialize funcitions :).
- This is not something anybody would want to tweak after startup
anyway.

I would like to modify how the init.c file is generated (its content).
But as it is, a shell script with multiple sed invocations in a Makefile
target, it's not very maintainable. Replace that with a shell script
that does the same, but in a more readable way.
The Makefile rule uses the "-" prefix in front of the for loop, I
presume to ignore any error coming from the fact that xml-builtin.c and
cp-name-parser.c are not found in the srcdir (they are generated source
files). I prefer not to blindly ignore errors, so filter these files
out of INIT_FILES instead (we already filter out other files).
There are no expected meaningful changes to the generated init.c file.
Just the _initialize_all_file declaration that is moved down and "void"
in parenthesis that is removed.
The new regular expression is a bit tighter than the existing one, it
requires the init function to be followed by exactly ` ()`. Update
bpf-tdep.c accordingly.

* Makefile.in (INIT_FILES_FILTER_OUT): New.

The alias creation functions currently accept a name to specify the
target command. They pass this to add_alias_cmd, which needs to lookup
the target command by name.
Given that:
- We don't support creating an alias for a command before that command
exists.
- We always use add_info_alias just after creating that target command,
and therefore have access to the target command's cmd_list_element.
... change add_com_alias to accept the target command as a
cmd_list_element (other functions are done in subsequent patches). This
ensures we don't create the alias before the target command, because you
need to get the cmd_list_element from somewhere when you call the alias
creation function. And it avoids an unecessary command lookup. So it
seems better to me in every aspect.

* command.h (add_com_alias): Accept target as
cmd_list_element. Update callers.

In add_setshow_generic, we create set/show commands using add_setshow_*

Some add_set_show commands return a single cmd_list_element, the one for
the "set" command. A subsequent patch will need to access the show
command's cmd_list_element as well. Change these functions to return a
new structure type that holds both pointers.
I initially only modified add_setshow_boolean_cmd (the one I needed),
but I think it's better to change the whole chain to keep everything in
sync.

When loading the debug info package
libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug from openSUSE Leap 15.2, we
run into a dwarf error:
...
$ gdb -q -batch libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug
Dwarf Error: Cannot not find DIE at 0x18a936e7 \
[from module libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug]
...
The DIE @ 0x18a936e7 does in fact exist, and is part of a CU @ 0x18a23e52.
No error message is printed when using -readnow.
What happens is the following:
- a dwarf2_per_cu_data P is created for the CU.
- a dwarf2_cu A is created for the same CU.
- another dwarf2_cu B is created for the same CU.
- the dwarf2_cu B is set in per_objfile->m_dwarf2_cus, such that
per_objfile->get_cu (P) returns B.
- P->load_all_dies is set to 1.
- all dies are read into the A->partial_dies htab
- dwarf2_cu A is destroyed.
- we try to find the partial_die for the DIE @ 0x18a936e7 in B->partial_dies.
We can't find it, but do not try to load all dies, because P->load_all_dies
is already set to 1.
- an error message is generated.
The question is why we're creating dwarf2_cu A and B for the same CU.
The dwarf2_cu A is created here:

So in frame #9, a cutu_reader is created with dwarf2_cu A. Then a fixup takes
us to the following CU @ 0x18aa33d6, in frame #5. And a similar fixup in
frame #4 takes us back to CU @ 0x18a23e52. At that point, there's no
information available that we're already trying to read that CU, and we end up
creating another cutu_reader with dwarf2_cu B.
It seems that there are two related problems:
- creating two dwarf2_cu's is not optimal
- the unoptimal case is not handled correctly
This patch addresses the last problem, by moving the load_all_dies flag from
dwarf2_per_cu_data to dwarf2_cu, such that it is paired with the partial_dies
field, which ensures that the two can be kept in sync.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

This was wrong: dwarf_die_debug is used as an integer, for example where

The reg_buffer constructor zero-initializes (value-initializes, in C++
speak) the gdb_bytes of the m_registers array. This is not necessary,
as these bytes are only meaningful if the corresponding register_status
is REG_VALID. If the corresponding register_status is REG_VALID, then
they will have been overwritten with the actual register data when
reading the registers from the system into the reg_buffer.
Fix that by removing the empty parenthesis following the new expression,
meaning that the bytes will now be default-initialized, meaning they'll
be left uninitialized. For reference, this is explained here:
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/new#Construction
These new expressions were added in 835dcf92618e ("Use std::unique_ptr
in reg_buffer"). As mentioned in that commit message, the use of
value-initialisation was done on purpose to keep existing behavior, but
now there is some data that suggest it would be beneficial not to do it,
which is why I suggest changing it.
This doesn't make a big difference on typical architectures where the
register buffer is not that big. However, on ROCm (AMD GPU), the
register buffer is about 65000 bytes big, so the reg_buffer constructor
shows up in profiling. If you want to make some tests and profile it on
a standard system, it's always possible to change:
- m_registers.reset (new gdb_byte[m_descr->sizeof_raw_registers] ());
+ m_registers.reset (new gdb_byte[65000] ());
and run a program that constantly hits a breakpoint with a false
condition. For example, by doing this change and running the following
program:
static void break_here () {}
int main ()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
break_here ();
}
with the following GDB incantation:
/usr/bin/time ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q test -ex "b break_here if 0" -ex r -batch
I get, for value-intializing:
11.75user 7.68system 0:18.54elapsed 104%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 56644maxresident)k
And for default-initializing:

In a linux kernel mailing list discussion, it was mentioned that "gdb has
this odd thing where it takes the 64-bit vs 32-bit data for the whole process
from one thread, and picks the worst possible thread to do it (ie explicitly
not even the main thread, ...)" [1].
The picking of the thread is done here in
x86_linux_nat_target::read_description:
...
/* GNU/Linux LWP ID's are process ID's. */
tid = inferior_ptid.lwp ();
if (tid == 0)
tid = inferior_ptid.pid (); /* Not a threaded program. */
...
To understand what this code does, let's investigate a scenario in which
inferior_ptid.lwp () != inferior_ptid.pid ().
Say we start exec jit-attach-pie, identified with pid x. The main thread
starts another thread that sleeps, and then the main thread waits for the
sleeping thread. So we have two threads, identified with LWP IDs x and x+1:
...
PID LWP CMD
x x ./jit-attach-pie
x x+1 ./jit-attach-pie
...
[ The thread with LWP x is known as the thread group leader. ]
When attaching to this exec using the pid, gdb does a stop_all_threads which
iterates over all the threads, first LWP x, and then LWP x+1.
So the state we arrive with at x86_linux_nat_target::read_description is:
...
(gdb) p inferior_ptid
$1 = {m_pid = x, m_lwp = x+1, m_tid = 0}
...
and consequently we probe 64/32-bitness from thread LWP x+1.
[ Note that this is different from when gdb doesn't attach but instead
launches the exec itself, in which case there's just one thread to begin with,
and consequently the probed thread is LWP x. ]
According to aforementioned remark, a better choice would have been the main
thread, that is, LWP x.
This patch implement that choice, by simply doing:
...
tid = inferior_ptid.pid ();
...
The fact that gdb makes a per-process permanent choice for 64/32-bitness is a
problem in itself: each thread can be in either 64 or 32 bit mode, and change
forth and back. That is a problem that this patch doesn't fix.
Now finally: why does this matter in the context of the linux kernel
discussion? The discussion was related to a patch that exposed io_uring
threads to user-space. This made it possible that one of those threads would
be picked out to select 64/32-bitness. Given that such threads are atypical
user-space threads in the sense that they don't return to user-space and don't
have a userspace register state, reading their registers returns garbage, and
so it could f.i. occur that in a 64-bit process with all normal user-space
threads in 64-bit mode, the probing would return 32-bit.
It may be that this is worked-around on the kernel side by providing userspace
register state in those threads such that current gdb is happy. Nevertheless,
it seems prudent to fix this on the gdb size as well.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

The test in gdb.dwarf2/dw2-inline-with-lexical-scope.c fails with icc.
The reason is, icc did not emit code for a dead statement, which in
turn caused some labels to be collapsed. Fix this by replacing the
dead code with assignment to a global value. The statement itself
does not change the test scenario.
Also fix a whitespacing problem around an assignment operator.

Consider a minimal test-case test.c:
...
int main (void) { return 0; }
...
which we can compile into llvm byte code using clang:
...
$ clang -g -S -emit-llvm --target=x86_64-unknown-unknown-elf test.c
...
and then run using lli, which uses the llvm jit:
...
$ lli test.ll
...
If we run this under gdb, we run into an assert:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex run --args /usr/bin/lli test.ll
Dwarf Error: Cannot not find DIE at 0x18a936e7 \
[from module libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug]
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
src/gdb/jit.c:1178: internal-error: \
void jit_event_handler(gdbarch*, objfile*): \
Assertion `jiter->jiter_data != nullptr' failed.
...
This is caused by the following.
When running jit_breakpoint_re_set_internal, we first handle
libLLVM.so.10.debug, and set a jit breakpoint.
Next we handle libLLVM.so.10:
...
(gdb) p the_objfile.original_name
$42 = 0x2494170 "libLLVM.so.10"
...
but the minimal symbols we find are from libLLVM.so.10.debug:
...
(gdb) p reg_symbol.objfile.original_name
$43 = 0x38e7c50 "libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug"
(gdb) p desc_symbol.objfile.original_name
$44 = 0x38e7c50 "libLLVM.so.10-10.0.1-lp152.30.4.x86_64.debug"
...
and consequently, the objf_data is the one from libLLVM.so.10.debug:
...
jiter_objfile_data *objf_data
= get_jiter_objfile_data (reg_symbol.objfile);
...
and so we hit this:
...
if (objf_data->cached_code_address == addr)
continue;
...
and no second jit breakpoint is inserted.
Subsequently, the jit breakpoint is triggered and handled, but when finding
the symbol for the breakpoint address we get:
...
(gdb) p jit_bp_sym.objfile.original_name
$52 = 0x2494170 "libLLVM.so.10"
...
The assert 'jiter->jiter_data != nullptr' triggers because it checks
libLLVM.so.10 while the one with jiter_data setup is libLLVM.so.10.debug.
This fixes the assert:
...
jiter_objfile_data *objf_data
- = get_jiter_objfile_data (reg_symbol.objfile);
- = get_jiter_objfile_data (the_objfile);
...
but consequently we'll have two jit breakpoints, so we also make sure we don't
set a jit breakpoint on separate debug objects like libLLVM.so.10.debug.
