2019-12-01Fix latent bug in tui_copy_source_lineTom Tromey4-0/+58
tui_copy_source_line has a bug, where it can advance past the terminating \0 in its input string. This patch fixes the bug and adds a test case for this function. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-12-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * tui/tui-winsource.c (tui_copy_source_line): Don't advance past \0. * unittests/tui-selftests.c: New file. * Makefile.in (SUBDIR_UNITTESTS_SRCS): Add tui-selftests.c.

2019-12-01Re-highlight windows when needed during TUI startupTom Tromey2-2/+7
I noticed that "tui enable" did not correctly show the source window as having the focus. Debugging showed that the problem was that tui_update_variables was called after the windows were drawn, and its result was being ignored. This changed the code to re-highlight the windows if the value changed. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-12-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * tui/tui.c (tui_enable): Call tui_update_variables earlier.

2019-12-01Add TUI border colorsTom Tromey10-27/+146
This adds the ability to change the color of the TUI borders, both ordinary and active. Unlike other styling options, this doesn't allow setting the intensity, because that is already done by the TUI in a different way. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-12-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * NEWS: Document new settings. * tui/tui-wingeneral.c (box_win): Apply appropriate border style. * tui/tui-win.c (_initialize_tui_win): Add border style observers. * tui/tui-io.h (tui_apply_style): Declare. * tui/tui-io.c (tui_apply_style): Rename from apply_style.

2019-12-01Allow using less horizontal space in TUI source windowTom Tromey10-11/+102
The source window currently uses a field width of 6 for line numbers, and it further aligns to the next tab stop. This seemed a bit wasteful of horizontal space to me, so I changed that in an earlier patch. However, that change wasn't universally popular. This patch instead adds the option to use less horizontal space in the TUI source window. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-12-01 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * tui/tui-winsource.h (tui_copy_source_line): Add "ndigits" parameter. * tui/tui-winsource.c (tui_copy_source_line): Add "ndigits" parameter. * tui/tui-win.h (compact_source): Declare. * tui/tui-win.c (compact_source): New global.

2019-11-30Correctly compute length of DW_TAG_variant_part unionTom Tromey2-3/+13
Currently, gdb internally transforms DW_TAG_variant_part into a union (with some special attbributes). When doing so, it computes the length of this union from the length of the fields. However, this computation didn't include the offset of these fields, resulting in the length being too short. This is not a problem given the way the code currently works. However, I have a patch series to switch gdb to value-based printing, where this does have an impact. Tested on x86-64 Fedora 28; and, considering that this only affects Rust, I am checking it in. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-30 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_add_field): Include field offset when computing variant part length.

gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-30 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * NEWS: Mention define-prefix. Tell that command names can now contain a . character. gdb/doc/ChangeLog 2019-11-30 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.texinfo (Define): Indicate that user-defined prefix can be used in 'define' command.

2019-11-30Allow . character as part of command names.Philippe Waroquiers10-25/+76
This patch adds . as an allowed character for user defined commands. Combined with 'define-prefix', this allows to e.g. define a set of Valgrind specific user command corresponding to the Valgrind monitor commands (such as check_memory, v.info, v.set, ...). gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-30 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * command.h (valid_cmd_char_p): Declare. * cli/cli-decode.c (valid_cmd_char_p): New function factorizing the check of valid command char.

2019-11-30Test define-prefix.Philippe Waroquiers2-0/+168
Adds a test testing the new define-prefix command. 2019-11-30 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.base/define-prefix.exp: New file.
2019-11-30Implement user defined prefix.Philippe Waroquiers3-16/+135
This patch adds the new 'define-prefix' command that creates (or mark an existing user defined command) as a prefix command. This approach was preferred compared to add a -prefix option to 'define' command : with define-prefix, a command can be defined and afterwards marked as a prefix. Also, it is easier to define a 'prefix' only command in one operation. This patch also adds completers for the 'define' and 'document' commands. This makes it easier for the user to type the prefixes for 'define' and type the documented command name for 'document'. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-30 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * cli/cli-script.c (do_define_command): Ensure a redefined prefix command is kept as a prefix command. (define_prefix_command): New function. (show_user_1): Report user defined prefixes. (_initialize_cli_script): Create the new 'define-prefix' command. Add completers for 'define' and 'document'. * top.c (execute_command): If command is a user-defined prefix only command, report the list of commands for this prefix command.
2019-11-29gdb: improve debug output of function overload resolutionTankut Baris Aktemur2-3/+12
Function overload resolution prints debug output if turned on via the 'set debug overload' command. The output includes the badness vector (BV). For each function, this vector contains a badness value of the length of parameters as its first element. So, BV[0] does not correspond to a parameter. The badness values of parameters start with BV[1]. A badness value is a pair; it contains a rank and a subrank. Printing both fields provides useful information. Improve printing the badness vector along these lines. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-11-29 Tankut Baris Aktemur <tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com> * valops.c (find_oload_champ): Improve debug output.

2019-11-29gdb: fix segfault in overload resolution debug outputTankut Baris Aktemur2-23/+30
A segfault occurs if overload resolution debug mode is turned on via the 'set debug overload' command. E.g.: ~~~ $ gdb ./a.out ... (gdb) start ... (gdb) set debug overload 1 (gdb) print foo(5) -- Arg is int [8], parm is double [9] Overloaded function instance (null) # of parms 1 Segmentation fault $ ~~~ The problem is, GDB tries to print the badness vector after it has been std::move'd. Fix the problem by printing the vector before it is moved. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-11-29 Tankut Baris Aktemur <tankut.baris.aktemur@intel.com> * valops.c (find_oload_champ): Print part of debug messages before the badness vector is std::move'd.

2019-11-28Make two range_bounds bitfields unsignedTom Tromey2-2/+7
While debugging gdb, I noticed that the bitfields in a range_bounds were signed, causing the values of these fields to be -1. I think this is odd; and while we haven't yet committed to boolean bitfields, I think it is a small improvement to change these types to unsigned. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-28 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbtypes.h (struct range_bounds) <flag_upper_bound_is_count, flag_bound_evaluated>: Now unsigned.

2019-11-27Turn off threaded minsym demangling by defaultChristian Biesinger4-4/+33
Per discussion on gdb-patches with Joel, this patch turns off multihreaded symbol loading by default. It can be turned on using: maint set worker-threads unlimited To keep the behavior as close as possible to the old code, it still calls symbol_set_names in the old place if n_worker_threads is 0. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-11-27 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> * maint.c (n_worker_threads): Default to 0.

2019-11-27gdb/testsuite: Fix race condition compiling fortran testAndrew Burgess2-1/+6
The Fortran test gdb.fortran/info-modules compiles the files info-types.f90 and info-types-2.f90 in that order. Unfortunately info-types.f90 makes use of a module defined in info-types-2.f90. This currently doesn't cause a problem if you run all of the Fortran tests as the info-types.exp test already compiles info-types-2.f90 and so the module description file 'mod2.mod' will be created, and can then be found by info-modules.exp during its compile. If however you try to run just info-modules.exp in a clean build directory, the test will fail to compile. Fix this by compiling the source files in the reverse order so that the module is compiled first, then the test program that uses the module. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.fortran/info-modules.exp: Compile source files in correct order.

2019-11-27Test case for BZ 25065Kevin Buettner3-0/+218
Running a GDB with the fix for BZ 25065 should cause these new tests to all pass. When run against a GDB without the fix, there will be 2 unresolved testcases. This is what I see in the gdb.sum file when I try it using a GDB without the fix: ERROR: GDB process no longer exists UNRESOLVED: gdb.dwarf2/imported-unit.exp: ptype main::Foo ERROR: Couldn't send ptype main::foo to GDB. UNRESOLVED: gdb.dwarf2/imported-unit.exp: ptype main::foo These are "unresolved" versus outright failures due to the fact that GDB dies (segfaults) during the running of the test. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.dwarf2/imported-unit.exp: New file. * gdb.dwarf2/imported-unit.c: New file.

2019-11-27Fix BZ 25065 - Ensure that physnames are computed for inherited DIEsKevin Buettner2-0/+8
This is a fix for BZ 25065. GDB segfaults when running either gdb.cp/subtypes.exp or gdb.cp/local.exp in conjunction with using the -flto compiler/linker flag. A much simpler program, which was used to help create the test for this fix, is: -- doit.cc -- int main() { class Foo { public: int doit () { return 0; } }; Foo foo; return foo.doit (); } -- end doit.cc -- gcc -o doit -flto -g doit.cc gdb -q doit Reading symbols from doit... (gdb) ptype main::Foo type = class Foo { Segmentation fault (core dumped) The segfault occurs due to a NULL physname in c_type_print_base_struct_union in c-typeprint.c. Specifically, calling is_constructor_name() eventually causes the SIGSEGV is this code in c-typeprint.c: const char *physname = TYPE_FN_FIELD_PHYSNAME (f, j); int is_full_physname_constructor = TYPE_FN_FIELD_CONSTRUCTOR (f, j) || is_constructor_name (physname) || is_destructor_name (physname) || method_name[0] == '~'; However, looking at compute_delayed_physnames(), we see that the TYPE_FN_FIELD_PHYSNAME field should never be NULL. This field will be set to "" for NULL physnames: physname = dwarf2_physname (mi.name, mi.die, cu); TYPE_FN_FIELD_PHYSNAME (fn_flp->fn_fields, mi.index) = physname ? physname : ""; For this particular case, it turns out that compute_delayed_physnames wasn't being called, which left TYPE_FN_FIELD_PHYSNAME set to the NULL value that it started with when that data structure was allocated. The place to fix it, I think, is towards the end of inherit_abstract_dies(). My first attempt at fix caused the origin CU's method_list (which is simply the list of methods whose physnames still need to be computed) to be added to the CU which is doing the inheriting. One drawback with this approach is that compute_delayed_physnames is (eventually) called with a CU that's different than the CU in which the methods were found. It's not clear whether this will cause problems or not. A safer approach, which is what I ultimately settled on, is to call compute_delayed_physnames() from inherit_abstract_dies(). One potential drawback is that all needed types might not be known at that point. However, in my testing, I haven't seen a problem along these lines. gdb/ChangeLog: * dwarf2read.c (inherit_abstract_dies): Ensure that delayed physnames are computed for inherited DIEs.

Introduce a new class to wrap up the parameters needed for the function search_symbols, which has now become a member function of this new class. The motivation is that search_symbols already takes a lot of parameters, and a future commit is going to add even more. This commit hopefully makes collecting the state required for a search easier. As part of this conversion the list of filenames in which to search has been converted to a std::vector. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. gdb/ChangeLog: * python/python.c (gdbpy_rbreak): Convert to using global_symbol_searcher. * symtab.c (file_matches): Convert return type to bool, change file list to std::vector, update header comment.

This adds a "name_allocated" field to cmd_list_element, so that commands can own their "name" when necessary. Then, this changes a few spots in gdb that currently free the name by hand to instead use this facility. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-function.c (fnpy_init): Update. * value.h (add_internal_function): Adjust declaration. * value.c (function_destroyer): Remove.

2019-11-26Add add_internal_function overloadTom Tromey4-13/+54
add_internal_function sets a command destroyer that frees the doc string. However, many callers do not pass in an allocated doc string. This adds a new overload to clearly differentiate the two cases, fixing the latent bug. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * value.h (add_internal_function): Add new overload. Move documentation from value.h. * value.c (do_add_internal_function): New function. (add_internal_function): Use it. Add new overload.

2019-11-26Use cmd_list_element::doc_allocated for Python commandsTom Tromey2-3/+7
Python commands manage their "doc" string manually, but cmd_list_element already has doc_allocated to handle this case. This changes the Python code to use the existing facility. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/py-cmd.c (cmdpy_destroyer): Don't free "doc".

2019-11-26Set names of worker threadsTom Tromey8-9/+45
This adds some configury so that gdb can set the names of worker threads. This makes them show up more nicely when debugging gdb itself. 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbsupport/thread-pool.c (thread_pool::set_thread_count): Set name of worker thread. * gdbsupport/common.m4 (GDB_AC_COMMON): Check for pthread_setname_np. * configure, config.in: Rebuild. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * configure, config.in: Rebuild.

2019-11-26Use run_on_main_thread in gdb.post_eventTom Tromey2-72/+71
This changes gdb.post_event to use the new run_on_main_thread function. This is somewhat tricky because the Python GIL must be held while manipulating reference counts. 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * python/python.c (class gdbpy_gil): New.

2019-11-26Demangle minsyms in parallelTom Tromey6-18/+158
This patch introduces a simple parallel for_each and changes the minimal symbol reader to use it when computing the demangled name for a minimal symbol. This yields a speedup when reading minimal symbols. 2019-11-26 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * minsyms.c (minimal_symbol_reader::install): Use parallel_for_each. * gdbsupport/parallel-for.h: New file. * Makefile.in (HFILES_NO_SRCDIR): Add gdbsupport/parallel-for.h.

2019-11-26Implement a thread poolChristian Biesinger4-0/+228
This adds a simple thread pool to gdb. In the end, this seemed preferable to the approach taken in an earlier version of this series; namely, starting threads in the parallel-foreach implementation. This approach reduces the overhead of starting new threads, and also lets the user control (in a subsequent patch) exactly how many worker threads are running. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Christian Biesinger <cbiesinger@google.com> Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbsupport/thread-pool.h: New file. * gdbsupport/thread-pool.c: New file. * Makefile.in (COMMON_SFILES): Add thread-pool.c.

2019-11-26Introduce thread-safe way to handle SIGSEGVTom Tromey4-73/+131
The gdb demangler installs a SIGSEGV handler in order to protect gdb from demangler bugs. However, this is not thread-safe, as signal handlers are global to the process. This patch changes gdb to always install a global SIGSEGV handler, and then lets threads indicate their interest in handling the signal by setting a thread-local variable. This patch then arranges for the demangler code to use this; being sure to arrange for calls to warning and the like to be done on the main thread. One thing I wondered while writing this patch is if there are any systems that do not have "sigaction". If gdb could assume this, it would simplify this code. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * event-top.h (thread_local_segv_handler): Declare. * event-top.c (thread_local_segv_handler): New global.

2019-11-26Introduce alternate_signal_stack RAII classTom Tromey3-24/+78
This introduces a new RAII class that temporarily installs an alternate signal stack (on systems that have sigaltstack); then changes the one gdb use of sigaltstack to use this class instead. This will be used in a later patch, when creating new threads that may want to handle SIGSEGV. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * main.c (setup_alternate_signal_stack): Remove. (captured_main_1): Use gdb::alternate_signal_stack. * gdbsupport/alt-stack.h: New file. Change-Id: I721c047ae9d51a35fd274a6dbc00a58c6440dae6
2019-11-26Add RAII class for blocking gdb signalsTom Tromey17-38/+391
This adds configury support and an RAII class that can be used to temporarily block signals that are used by gdb. (This class is not used in this patch, but it split out for easier review.) The idea of this patch is that these signals should only be delivered to the main thread. So, when creating a background thread, they are temporarily blocked; the blocked state is inherited by the new thread. The sigprocmask man page says: The use of sigprocmask() is unspecified in a multithreaded process; see pthread_sigmask(3). This patch changes gdb to use pthread_sigmask when appropriate, by introducing a convenience define. I've updated gdbserver as well, because I had to touch gdbsupport, and because the threading patches will make it link against the thread library. I chose not to touch the NTO code, because I don't know anything about that platform and because I cannot test it. Finally, this modifies an existing spot in the Guile layer to use the new facility. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbsupport/signals-state-save-restore.c (original_signal_mask): Remove comment.

2019-11-26Add configure check for std::threadTom Tromey11-6/+1615
This adds a configure check for std::thread. This is needed because std::thread is not available on some systems, like some versions of mingw and DJGPP. This also adds configury to make sure that a threaded gdb links against the correct threading library (-lpthread or the like), and passes the right flags (e.g., -pthread) to the compilations. Note that this also links gdbserver against the thread library. This is not strictly necessary at this point in the series, but a later patch will change gdbsupport to use pthread_sigmask, at which point this will be needed. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * acinclude.m4: Include ax_pthread.m4. * Makefile.in (PTHREAD_CFLAGS, PTHREAD_LIBS): New variables.

Currently the demangled name of a minimal symbol is set when creating the symbol. However, there is no intrinsic need to do this.

PyGILState_Release (m_state); python_gdbarch = m_gdbarch; python_language = m_language; restore_active_ext_lang (m_previous_active); } So, it releases the GIL lock, does 2 assignments and then leads to the following call sequence: restore_active_ext_lang => check_quit_flag => python.c gdbpy_check_quit_flag => PyOS_InterruptOccurred => is_main. is_main code is: static int is_main(_PyRuntimeState *runtime) { unsigned long thread = PyThread_get_thread_ident(); PyInterpreterState *interp = _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState(runtime)->interp; return (thread == runtime->main_thread && interp == runtime->interpreters.main); } The macros and functions to access the thread state are documented as: /* Variable and macro for in-line access to current thread and interpreter state */ #define _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState(runtime) \ ((PyThreadState*)_Py_atomic_load_relaxed(&(runtime)->gilstate.tstate_current)) /* Get the current Python thread state. Efficient macro reading directly the 'gilstate.tstate_current' atomic variable. The macro is unsafe: it does not check for error and it can return NULL. The caller must hold the GIL. See also PyThreadState_Get() and PyThreadState_GET(). */ #define _PyThreadState_GET() _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState(&_PyRuntime) So, we see that GDB releases the GIL and then potentially calls _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState that needs the GIL. It is not very clear why the problem is only observed when running under Valgrind. Probably caused by the slowdown due to Valgrind and/or to the 'single thread' scheduling by Valgrind. This patch fixes the crashes by releasing the GIT lock later. 2019-11-26 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * python/python.c (gdbpy_enter::~gdbpy_enter): Release GIL after restore_active_ext_lang, as GIL is needed for (indirectly) called PyOS_InterruptOccurred.
