When doing "checkpoint delete 0" we run into an assertion failure:
...
+delete checkpoint 0
inferior.c:406: internal-error: find_inferior_pid: Assertion `pid != 0' failed.
...
Fix this by handling the "pptid == null_ptid" case in
delete_checkpoint_command.

Consider test-case gdb.base/checkpoint.exp. At some point, it issues an info
checkpoints command:
...
(gdb) info checkpoints^M
* 0 process 30570 (main process) at 0x0^M
1 process 30573 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
2 process 30574 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
3 process 30575 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
4 process 30576 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
5 process 30577 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
6 process 30578 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
7 process 30579 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
8 process 30580 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
9 process 30582 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
10 process 30583 at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M
...
According to the docs, each of these (0-10) is a checkpoint.
But the pc address (as well as the file name and line number) is missing for
checkpoint 0.
Fix this by sampling the pc value for the current process in
info_checkpoints_command, such that we have instead:
...
* 0 process 30570 (main process) at 0x4008bb, file checkpoint.c, line 49^M

Make this explicit by changing the variable type to bool.

Currently cooked_index entry creation is either:
- done immediately if the parent_entry is known, or
- deferred if the parent_entry is not yet known, and done later while
resolving the deferred entries.
Instead, create all cooked_index entries immediately, and keep track of which
entries have a parent_entry that needs resolving later using the new
IS_PARENT_DEFERRED flag.

Simon pointed out that my recent change to the DWO code caused a
failure in ASAN testing.
The bug here was I updated the code to use a different search type in
the hash table; but then did not change the search code to use
htab_find_slot_with_hash.
Note that this bug would not be possible with my type-safe hash table
series, hint, hint.

A user pointed out that the recent background DWARF reader series
broke the build when --disable-threading is in use. This patch fixes
the problem. I am checking it in.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31223

dwarf2_base_index_functions::find_per_cu is documented as using an
unrelocated address. This patch changes the interface to use the
unrelocated_addr type, just to be a bit more type-safe.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.
|
|
Now that the DWARF reader does not use parallel_for_each, we can
remove some of the features that were added just for it: return values
and task sizing.
The thread_pool typed tasks feature could also be removed, but I
haven't done so here. This one seemed less intrusive and perhaps more
likely to be needed at some point.
|
|
The previous patches are nearly enough to enable background DWARF
reading. However, this hack in language_defn::get_symbol_name_matcher
causes an early computation of current_language:
/* If currently in Ada mode, and the lookup name is wrapped in
'<...>', hijack all symbol name comparisons using the Ada
matcher, which handles the verbatim matching. */
if (current_language->la_language == language_ada
&& lookup_name.ada ().verbatim_p ())
return current_language->get_symbol_name_matcher_inner (lookup_name);
I considered various options here -- reversing the order of the
checks, or promoting the verbatim mode to not be a purely Ada feature
-- but in the end found that the few calls to this during startup
could be handled more directly.
In the JIT code, and in create_exception_master_breakpoint_hook, gdb
is really looking for a certain kind of symbol (text or data) using a
linkage name. Changing the lookup here is clearer and probably more
efficient as well.
In create_std_terminate_master_breakpoint, the lookup can't really be
done by linkage name (it would require relying on a certain mangling
scheme, and also may trip over versioned symbols) -- but we know that
this spot is C++-specific, and so the language ought to be temporarily
set to C++ here.
After this patch, the "file" case is much faster:
(gdb) file /tmp/gdb
2023-10-23 13:16:54.456 - command started
Reading symbols from /tmp/gdb...
2023-10-23 13:16:54.520 - command finished

lookup_minimal_symbol_text always loops over all objfiles, even when
an objfile is passed in as an argument. This patch changes the
function to loop over the minimal number of objfiles in the latter
situation.
|
|
When gdb starts up with a symbol file, it uses the program's "main" to
decide the "static context" and the initial language. With background
DWARF reading, this means that gdb has to wait for a significant
amount of DWARF to be read synchronously.
This patch introduces lazy language setting. The idea here is that in
many cases, the prompt can show up early, making gdb feel more
responsive.
|
|
This changes the 'current_language' global to be a macro that wraps a
function call. This change will let a subsequent patch introduce lazy
language setting.
|
|
quick_symbol_functions::read_partial_symbols is no longer implemented,
so both it and quick_symbol_functions::can_lazily_read_symbols can be
removed. This allows for other functions to be removed as well.
Note that SYMFILE_NO_READ is now pretty much dead. I haven't removed
it here -- but could if that's desirable. I tend to think that this
functionality would be better implemented in the core; but whenever I
dive into the non-DWARF readers it is pretty depressing.
|
|
dwarf2_has_info and dwarf2_initialize_objfile are only separate
because the DWARF reader implemented lazy psymtab reading. However,
now that this is gone, we can simplify the public DWARF API again.
|
|
This patch rearranges the DWARF reader so that more work is done in
the background. This is PR symtab/29942.
The idea here is that there is only a small amount of work that must
be done on the main thread when scanning DWARF -- before the main
scan, the only part is mapping the section data.
Currently, the DWARF reader uses the quick_symbol_functions "lazy"
functionality to defer even starting to read. This patch instead
changes the reader to start reading immediately, but doing more in
worker tasks.
Before this patch, "file" on my machine:
(gdb) file /tmp/gdb
2023-10-23 12:29:56.885 - command started
Reading symbols from /tmp/gdb...
2023-10-23 12:29:58.047 - command finished
Command execution time: 5.867228 (cpu), 1.162444 (wall)
After the patch, more work is done in the background and so this takes
a bit less time:
(gdb) file /tmp/gdb
2023-10-23 13:25:51.391 - command started
Reading symbols from /tmp/gdb...
2023-10-23 13:25:51.712 - command finished
Command execution time: 1.894500 (cpu), 0.320306 (wall)
I think this could be further sped up by using the shared library load
map to avoid objfile loops like the one in expand_symtab_containing_pc
-- it seems like the correct objfile could be chosen more directly.

This changes the cooked index code to wait for threads in its
public-facing API. That is, the waits are done in cooked_index now,
and never in the cooked_index_shard. Centralizing this decision makes
it easier to wait for other events here as well.
|
|
For testing, it's sometimes convenient to be able to request that
DWARF reading be done synchronously. This patch adds a new "maint"
setting for this purpose.

This moves cooked_index_storage to cooked-index.h. This is needed by
a subsequent patch.
|
|
This adds a new compute_main_name method to quick_symbol_functions.
Currently there are no implementations of this, but a subsequent patch
will add one.
|
|
When DWARF reading is done in the background,
read_addrmap_from_aranges will be called from a worker thread.
Because warnings can't be emitted from these threads, this patch adds
a new deferred_warnings parameter to the function, letting the caller
control exactly how the warnings are emitted.
|
|
This patch changes the way complaint works in a background thread.
The new approach requires installing a complaint interceptor in each
worker, and then the resulting complaints are treated as one of the
results of the computation. This change is needed for a subsequent
patch, where installing a complaint interceptor around a parallel-for
is no longer a viable approach.
|

This changes gdb to ensure that gdb's BFD cache is guarded by a lock.
This avoids any races when multiple threads might open a BFD (and thus
use the BFD cache) at the same time.
Currently, this change is not needed because the the main thread waits
for some DWARF scanning to be completed before returning. The only
locking that's required is when opening DWO files, and there's a local
lock to this end in dwarf2/read.c.
However, in the coming patches, the DWARF reader will begin its work
earlier, in the background. This means there is the potential for the
DWARF reader and other code on the main thread to both attempt to open
BFDs at the same time.
|
|
This adds a couple of calls to bfd_cache_close at points where a BFD
isn't actively needed by gdb. Normally at these points, all the
needed section data is already mapped, so we can simply close the file
descriptor. This is harmless at worst, because if this is needed
after all, the BFD file descriptor cache will reopen it.
|
|
This changes the DWZ code to pre-read the section data and somewhat
simplify the DWZ API. This makes it easier to add the bfd_cache_close
call to the new dwarf2_read_dwz_file function -- after this is done,
there shouldn't be a reason to keep the BFD's file descriptor open.
|
|
The DWO code in the DWARF reader currently uses objfile::intern. This
accesses a shared data structure and so would be racy when used from
multiple threads. I don't believe this can happen right now, but
background reading could provoke this, and in any case it's better to
avoid this, just to be sure.
This patch changes this code to just use a std::string. A new type is
introduced to do hash table lookups, to avoid unnecessary copies.

if { $expect_fail } {
# If the backtrace output is correct the test isn't sufficiently
# testing what it should.
if { $count == $total_expected } {
set fail 1
}
...
The test-case:
- builds two versions of two shared libs, a "right" and "wrong" version, the
difference being an additional dummy function (called spacer function),
- uses the "right" version to generate a core file,
- uses the "wrong" version to interpret the core file, and
- generates a backtrace.
The intent is that the backtrace is incorrect due to using the "wrong"
version, but actually it's correct. This is because the spacer functions
aren't large enough.
Fix this by increasing the size of the spacer functions by adding a dummy
loop, after which we have, as expected, an incorrect backtrace:

This commits changes how errors are reported from the expression
parser. Previously, parser errors were reported like this:
(gdb) p a1 +}= 432
A syntax error in expression, near `}= 432'.
(gdb) p a1 +
A syntax error in expression, near `'.
The first case is fine, a user can figure out what's going wrong, but
the second case is a little confusing; as the error occurred at the
end of the expression GDB just reports the empty string to the user.
After this commit the first case is unchanged, but the second case now
reports like this:
(gdb) p a1 +
A syntax error in expression, near the end of `a1 +'.
Which I think is clearer. There is a possible issue if the expression
being parsed is very long, GDB will repeat the whole expression. But
this issue already exists in the standard case; if the error occurs
early in a long expression GDB will repeat everything after the syntax
error. So I've not worried about this case in my new code either,
which keeps things simpler.
I did consider trying to have multi-line errors here, in the style
that gcc produces, with some kind of '~~~~~^' marker on the second
line to indicate where the error occurred; but I rejected this due to
the places in GDB where we catch an error and repackage the message
within some longer string, I don't think multi-line error messages
would work well in that case. At a minimum it would require some
significant work in order to make all our error handling multi-line
aware.
I've added a couple of extra tests in gdb.base/exprs.exp.

Many (all?) of the expression parsers implement yyerror to handle
parser errors, and all of these functions are basically identical.
This commit adds a new parser_state::parse_error() function, which
implements the common error handling code, this function can then be
called from all the different yyerror functions.
The benefit of this is that (in a future commit) I can improve the
error output, and all the expression parsers will benefit.
This commit is pure refactoring though, and so, there should be no
user visible changes after this commit.

While working on a later commit in this series I realised that the
error() function doesn't support output styling. Due to the way that
output from error() calls is passed around within the exception
object and often combined with other output, it's not immediately
obvious to me if we should be trying to support styling in this
context or not.
On inspection, I found one place in GDB where we apparently try to
apply styling within the error() output (in procfs.c). I suspect this
error() call might not be tested.
Rather than try to implement styling in the error() output, right now
I'm proposing to just remove the attempt to style error() output.
This doesn't mean that someone shouldn't add error() styling in the
future, but right now, I'm not planning to do that, I just wanted to
fix this in passing.

Currently GDB when executing in reverse over multiple statements in a single

42 shr1 ("message 1\n"); /* shr1 one */
Normal execution:
- step from line 38 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 42.
Reverse execution:
- step from line 42 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 40.
- step from line 40 will land on line 38.
The problem here is that line 40 contains two contiguous but distinct
PC ranges in the line table, like so:
Line 40 - [0x7ec ~ 0x7f4]
Line 40 - [0x7f4 ~ 0x7fc]
The two distinct ranges are generated because GCC started outputting source
column information, which GDB doesn't take into account at the moment.
When stepping forward from line 40, we skip both of these ranges and land on
line 42. When stepping backward from line 42, we stop at the start PC of the
second (or first, going backwards) range of line 40.
Since we've reached ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_start, we stop
stepping backwards.
The above issues were fixed by introducing a new function that looks for
adjacent PC ranges for the same line, until we notice a line change. Then
we take that as the start PC of the range. The new start PC for the range
is used for the control.step_range_start when setting up a step range.
The test case gdb.reverse/map-to-same-line.exp is added to test the fix
for the above reverse step issues.
Patch has been tested on PowerPC, X86 and AArch64 with no regressions.

This patch adds two new options to gdb_compile to specify if the compile
should or should not generate the line table information. The
options are supported on clang and gcc version 7 and newer.
Patch has been tested on PowerPC with both gcc and clang.

This commit adds a mechanism for GDB to detect the linetable opcode
DW_LNS_set_epilogue_begin. This opcode is set by compilers to indicate
that a certain instruction marks the point where the frame is destroyed.
While the standard allows for multiple points marked with epilogue_begin
in the same function, for performance reasons, the function that
searches for the epilogue address will only find the last address that
sets this flag for a given block.
This commit also changes amd64_stack_frame_destroyed_p_1 to attempt to
use the epilogue begin directly, and only if an epilogue can't be found
will it attempt heuristics based on the current instruction.
Finally, this commit also changes the dwarf assembler to be able to emit
epilogue-begin instructions, to make it easier to test this patch

Mark pointed out that a recent patch of mine caused the buildbot to
complain about the formatting of some Python test code. This patch
re-runs 'black' to fix the problem.

On aarch64-linux with a gdb build without libexpat, I run into:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: determine pipe syscall: \
catch syscall 59
continue
Continuing.
Catchpoint 5 (call to syscall 59), 0x0000fffff7e04578 in pipe () from \
/lib64/libc.so.6
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: determine pipe syscall: continue
...
In the test-case, this pattern handles either the syscall name or number for
the pipe syscall:
...
-re -wrap "Catchpoint $decimal \\(call to syscall (pipe|$SYS_pipe)\\).*" {
...
but the pattern for the pipe2 syscall mistakenly uses SYS_pipe instead of
SYS_pipe2:
...
-re -wrap "Catchpoint $decimal \\(call to syscall (pipe2|$SYS_pipe)\\).*" {
...
and consequently doesn't handle the pipe2 syscall number.
Fix the typo by using SYS_pipe2 instead.
Tested on aarch64-linux.

The gdb docs promise that methods with more than two or more arguments
will accept keywords. However, I found that TuiWindow.write didn't
allow them. This patch adds the missing support.

When running test-case gdb.base/gdb-index-err.exp in a container as root user,
I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/gdb-index-err.exp: flag=: \
try to write index to a non-writable directory
FAIL: gdb.base/gdb-index-err.exp: flag=-dwarf-5: \
try to write index to a non-writable directory
...
The test-case creates a directory without write permissions:
...
$ ls -ald private
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 29 06:26 private/
...
but apparently the root user is still able to write in it.
Fix this by making the test unsupported for the root user.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

There will be another update in January.

Fortran provides additional entry points for subroutines and functions.
These entry points may use only a subset (or a different set) of the
parameters of the original subroutine. The entry points may be described
via the DWARF tag DW_TAG_entry_point.
This commit adds support for parsing the DW_TAG_entry_point DWARF tag.
Currently, between ifx/ifort/gfortran, only ifort is actually emitting
this tag. Both, ifx and gfortran use the DW_TAG_subprogram tag as
workaround/alternative. Thus, this patch really only adds more ifort
support. Even so, some of the attached tests still fail for ifort, due
to some wrong line info generated for the entry points in ifort.
After this patch it is possible to set a breakpoint in gdb with the
ifort compiled example at the entry points 'foo' and 'foobar', which was not
possible before.
As gcc and ifx do not emit the tag I also added a test to gdb.dwarf2
which uses some underlying c compiled code and adds some Fortran style DWARF
to it emitting the DW_TAG_entry_point. Before this patch it was not
possible to actually define breakpoint at the entry point tags.
For gfortran there actually exists a bug on bugzilla, asking for the use
of DW_TAG_entry_point over DW_TAG_subprogram:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37134
This patch was originally posted here
https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/gdb-patches/2017-07/msg00317.html
but its review/pinging got lost after a while. I reworked it to fit the
current GDB.

In dwarf2_get_pc_bounds we were writing unchecked to *lowpc. This
commit adds a gdb_assert to first check that lowpc != nullptr.

This commit is in preparation of the next commit. There, we will add
a second variation to retrieve the pc bounds for DIEs tagged with
DW_TAG_entry_point. Instead of dwarf_get_pc_bounds_ranges_or_highlow_pc
we will call a separate method for entry points. As the validity checks
at the endo f dwarf2_get_pc_bounds are the same for both variants,
we introduced the new dwarf_get_pc_bounds_ranges_or_highlow_pc method,
outsourcing part of dwarf2_get_pc_bounds.
This commit should have no functional impact on GDB.

Some spots loop on the frame chain to find the first next non-inline
frame, and pass that as the "next frame" to
value::allocate_register_lazy / value::allocate_register. This is
necessary if the value is used in the process of computing the id of
"this frame". If the frame next to "this frame" is inlined into "this
frame", then you that next frame won't have a computed id yet. You have
to go past that to find the next non-inline frame, which will have a
computed id.
In other cases, it's fine to store the id of an inline frame as the
"next frame id" in a register struct value. When trying to unwind a
register from it, it will just call inline_frame_prev_register, which
will forward the request to the next next frame, until we hit the next
physical frame.
I think it would make things simpler to just never store the id of an
inline frame as the next frame id of register struct values, and go with
the first next non-inline frame directly. This way, we don't have to
wonder which code paths have to skip inline frames when creating
register values and which don't.
So, change value::allocate_register_lazy to do that work, and remove the
loops for the callers that did it.

Remove VALUE_REGNUM, replace it with a method on struct value. Set
`m_location.reg.regnum` directly from value::allocate_register_lazy,
which is fine because allocate_register_lazy is a static creation
function for struct value.

As explained in the comment removed by the previous commit "gdb: pass
non-nullptr frame to gdbarch_value_from_register in
address_from_register", address_from_register copies some implementation
bits from value_from_register:
/* This routine may be called during early unwinding, at a time
where the ID of FRAME is not yet known. Calling value_from_register
would therefore abort in get_frame_id. However, since we only need
a temporary value that is never used as lvalue, we actually do not
really need to set its VALUE_NEXT_FRAME_ID. Therefore, we re-implement
the core of value_from_register, but use the null_frame_id. */
This is no longer relevant, since we now create a value with a valid next
frame id, so change address_from_register to use value_from_register.
