But somehow, that resulted in GDB printing "Quit", instead of the Ctrl-C stopping the program with SIGINT. Here's what is happening: #1 - those "pid=..., count=..." lines we see above weren't actually output by the inferior after it has been continued (see #1). Note that "inf1_how" and "inf2_how" are "attach". What happened is that those "pid=..., count=..." lines were output by the inferiors _before_ they were attached to. We see them at that point instead of earlier, because that's where the testcase reads from the inferiors' spawn_ids. #2 - The testcase mistakenly thinks those "pid=..., count=..." lines happened after the continue was processed by GDB, meaning it has waited enough, and so sends the Ctrl-C. GDB hasn't yet passed the terminal to the inferior, so the Ctrl-C results in that Quit. The fix here is twofold: #1 - flush inferior output right after attaching #2 - consume the "Continuing" printed by "continue", indicating the inferior has the terminal. This is the same as done throughout the testsuite to handle this exact problem of sending Ctrl-C too soon. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <pedro@palves.net <mailto:pedro@palves.net>> * gdb.multi/multi-term-settings.exp (create_inferior): Flush inferior output.

2021-09-29[gdb/testsuite] Disable vgdb tests if xml not supportedTom de Vries4-0/+20

After googling the error message with context valgrind gdbserver, I found indications that the Remote 'g' packet reply error is due to missing xml support. And here ( https://www.valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual-core-adv.html ) I found: ... GDB version needed for ARM and PPC32/64. You must use a GDB version which is able to read XML target description sent by a gdbserver. This is the standard setup if GDB was configured and built with the "expat" library. If your GDB was not configured with XML support, it will report an error message when using the "target" command. Debugging will not work because GDB will then not be able to fetch the registers from the Valgrind gdbserver. ... So I guess I'm running into the same problem for x86_64. Fix this by skipping all gdb.base/valgrind-*.exp tests if xml support is not available. Although only the gdb.base/valgrind-infcall*.exp produce fails, the Remote 'g' packet reply error occurs in all tests, so it seems prudent to disable them all. Tested on x86_64-linux.

Apparently, that's not the case. Fix this by removing "hit" from the regexp, making the regexp more similar to what is used in say, continue_to_breakpoint. Tested on x86_64-linux.
2021-09-29gdb: fix build when libbacktrace and execinfo backtrace are not availableAndrew Burgess1-0/+2

2021-09-28gdb: enable target_async around stop_all_threads call in ↵Simon Marchi3-1/+117
process_initial_stop_replies The following scenario hangs: - maint set target-non-stop on - `gdbserver --attach` - a multi-threaded program For example: Terminal 1: $ gnome-calculator& [1] 495731 $ ../gdbserver/gdbserver --once --attach :1234 495731 Attached; pid = 495731 Listening on port 1234 Terminal 2: $ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory /usr/bin/gnome-calculator -ex "maint set target-non-stop on" -ex "tar rem :1234" Reading symbols from /usr/bin/gnome-calculator... (No debugging symbols found in /usr/bin/gnome-calculator) Remote debugging using :1234 * hangs * What happens is: - The protocol between gdb and gdbserver is in non-stop mode, but the user-visible behavior is all-stop - On connect, gdbserver sends one stop reply for one thread that is stops, the others stay running - In process_initial_stop_replies, gdb calls stop_all_threads to stop these other threads, because we are using the all-stop user-visible mode - stop_all_threads sends a stop request for all the running threads and then waits for resulting events - At this point, the remote target is in target_async(0) mode, which makes stop_all_threads not consider it for events - stop_all_threads loops indefinitely (it does not even block indefinitely, it is in an infinite busy loop) because there are no event sources. wait_one_event returns a TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED wait status. Fix that by making the remote target async around the stop_all_threads call. I haven't implemented it because I'm not sure how to do it, but I think it would be a good idea to have, in stop_all_threads / wait_one / handle_one, an assert to check that if we are expecting one or more event, then there are some targets that are in a state where they can supply some events. Otherwise, we'll necessarily be stuck in this infinite loop, and it's probably due to a bug in GDB. I'm not too sure where to put this or how to express it though. Perhaps in stop_all_threads, here: for (int i = 0; i < waits_needed; i++) { wait_one_event event = wait_one (); *here* if (handle_one (event)) break; } If at that point, the returned event is TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, there's a problem. We expect some event, because we've asked some threads to stop, but all targets are answering that they won't have any events for us. That's a contradiction, and a sign that something has gone wrong. It could perhaps event be: gdb_assert (event.ws.kind != TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED); in handle_one, as the idea is the same in prepare_for_detach. A bit more sophisticated would be: we know which targets we are expecting waits from, since we know which threads we have asked to stop. So if any of these targets returns TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, something is fishy. Add a test that tests attaching with gdbserver's --attach flag to a multi-threaded program, and then connecting to it. Without the fix, the test reproduces the hang.

Here, the insertion order comes from the order of SALs when creating the breakpoint, which can vary from machine to machine. While it would be more user-friendly to have a more stable order for printed breakpoint locations, it doesn't really matter for this test, and it would be hard to define an order that will be the same everywhere, all the time. So, loosen the regexp to accept "inf 1" and "inf 2" in any order. Co-Authored-By: Pedro Alves <pedro@palves.net> Change-Id: I5ada2e0c6ad0669e0d161bfb6b767229c0970d16
2021-09-28gdb: print backtrace for internal error/warningAndrew Burgess5-37/+174
This commit builds on previous work to allow GDB to print a backtrace of itself when GDB encounters an internal-error or internal-warning. This fixes PR gdb/26377. There's not many places where we call internal_warning, and I guess in most cases the user would probably continue their debug session. And so, in order to avoid cluttering up the output, by default, printing of a backtrace is off for internal-warnings. In contrast, printing of a backtrace is on by default for internal-errors, as I figure that in most cases hitting an internal-error is going to be the end of the debug session. Whether a backtrace is printed or not can be controlled with the new settings: maintenance set internal-error backtrace on|off maintenance show internal-error backtrace maintenance set internal-warning backtrace on|off maintenance show internal-warning backtrace Here is an example of what an internal-error now looks like with the backtrace included: (gdb) maintenance internal-error blah ../../src.dev-3/gdb/maint.c:82: internal-error: blah A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. ----- Backtrace ----- 0x5c61ca gdb_internal_backtrace_1 ../../src.dev-3/gdb/bt-utils.c:123 0x5c626d _Z22gdb_internal_backtracev ../../src.dev-3/gdb/bt-utils.c:165 0xe33237 internal_vproblem ../../src.dev-3/gdb/utils.c:393 0xe33539 _Z15internal_verrorPKciS0_P13__va_list_tag ../../src.dev-3/gdb/utils.c:470 0x1549652 _Z14internal_errorPKciS0_z ../../src.dev-3/gdbsupport/errors.cc:55 0x9c7982 maintenance_internal_error ../../src.dev-3/gdb/maint.c:82 0x636f57 do_simple_func ../../src.dev-3/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:97 .... snip, lots more backtrace lines .... --------------------- ../../src.dev-3/gdb/maint.c:82: internal-error: blah A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable.

2021-09-28gdb: use libbacktrace to create a better backtrace for fatal signalsAndrew Burgess7-45/+315
GDB recently gained the ability to print a backtrace when a fatal signal is encountered. This backtrace is produced using the backtrace and backtrace_symbols_fd API available in glibc. However, in order for this API to actually map addresses to symbol names it is required that the application (GDB) be compiled with -rdynamic, which GDB is not by default. As a result, the backtrace produced often looks like this: Fatal signal: Bus error ----- Backtrace ----- ./gdb/gdb[0x80ec00] ./gdb/gdb[0x80ed56] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3c6b0)[0x7fc2ce1936b0] /lib64/libc.so.6(__poll+0x4f)[0x7fc2ce24da5f] ./gdb/gdb[0x15495ba] ./gdb/gdb[0x15489b8] ./gdb/gdb[0x9b794d] ./gdb/gdb[0x9b7a6d] ./gdb/gdb[0x9b943b] ./gdb/gdb[0x9b94a1] ./gdb/gdb[0x4175dd] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf3)[0x7fc2ce17e1a3] ./gdb/gdb[0x4174de] --------------------- This is OK if you have access to the exact same build of GDB, you can manually map the addresses back to symbols, however, it is next to useless if all you have is a backtrace copied into a bug report. GCC uses libbacktrace for printing a backtrace when it encounters an error. In recent commits I added this library into the binutils-gdb repository, and in this commit I allow this library to be used by GDB. Now (when GDB is compiled with debug information) the backtrace looks like this: ----- Backtrace ----- 0x80ee08 gdb_internal_backtrace ../../src/gdb/event-top.c:989 0x80ef0b handle_fatal_signal ../../src/gdb/event-top.c:1036 0x7f24539dd6af ??? 0x7f2453a97a5f ??? 0x154976f gdb_wait_for_event ../../src/gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:613 0x1548b6d _Z16gdb_do_one_eventv ../../src/gdbsupport/event-loop.cc:237 0x9b7b02 start_event_loop ../../src/gdb/main.c:421 0x9b7c22 captured_command_loop ../../src/gdb/main.c:481 0x9b95f0 captured_main ../../src/gdb/main.c:1353 0x9b9656 _Z8gdb_mainP18captured_main_args ../../src/gdb/main.c:1368 0x4175ec main ../../src/gdb/gdb.c:32 --------------------- Which seems much more useful. Use of libbacktrace is optional. If GDB is configured with --disable-libbacktrace then the libbacktrace directory will not be built, and GDB will not try to use this library. In this case GDB would try to use the old backtrace and backtrace_symbols_fd API. All of the functions related to writing the backtrace of GDB itself have been moved into the new files gdb/by-utils.{c,h}.

"set detach-on-fork on" (the default) 4. run to a breakpoint somewhere after the fork Step 4 should have created a new inferior: (gdb) info inferiors Num Description Connection Executable 1 <null> /home/smarchi/build/wt/amd/gdb/fork * 2 process 251425 1 (native) /home/smarchi/build/wt/amd/gdb/fork By inspecting the state of GDB, we can see that the two inferiors now share one program space and one address space: Inferior 1: (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.num $2 = 1 (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.aspace $3 = (struct address_space *) 0x5595e2520400 (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.pspace $4 = (struct program_space *) 0x5595e2520440 Inferior 2: (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.next.num $5 = 2 (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.next.aspace $6 = (struct address_space *) 0x5595e2520400 (top-gdb) p inferior_list.m_front.next.pspace $7 = (struct program_space *) 0x5595e2520440 You can then run inferior 1 again and the two inferiors will still erroneously share their spaces, but already at this point this is wrong. The cause of the bad {a,p}space sharing is in follow_fork_inferior. When following the child and detaching from the parent, we just re-use the parent's spaces, rather than cloning them. When we switch back to inferior 1 and run again, we find ourselves with two unrelated inferiors sharing spaces. Fix that by creating new spaces for the parent after having moved them to the child. My initial implementation created new spaces for the child instead. Doing this breaks doing "next" over fork(). When "next" start, we record the symtab of the starting location. When the program stops, we compare that symtab with the symtab the program has stopped at. If the symtab or the line number has changed, we conclude the "next" is done. If we create a new program space for the child and copy the parent's program space to it with clone_program_space, it creates new symtabs for the child as well. When the child stop, but still on the fork() line, GDB thinks the "next" is done because the symtab pointers no longer match. In reality they are two symtab instances that represent the same file. But moving the spaces to the child and creating new spaces for the parent, we avoid this problem. Note that the problem described above happens today with "detach-on-fork off" and "follow-fork-mode child", because we create new spaces for the child. This will have to be addressed later. Test-wise, improve gdb.base/foll-fork.exp to set a breakpoint that is expected to have a location in each inferiors. Without the fix, when the two inferiors erroneously share a program space, GDB reports a single location. Change-Id: Ifea76e14f87b9f7321fc3a766217061190e71c6e

2021-09-27gdb.base/foll-fork.exp: refactor to restart GDB between each portion of the testSimon Marchi1-63/+81
This test is difficult to follow and modify because the state of GDB is preserved some tests. Add a setup proc, which starts a new GDB and runs to main, and use it in all test procs. Use proc_with_prefix to avoid duplicates. The check_fork_catchpoints proc also seems used to check for follow-fork support by checking if catchpoints are supported. If they are not, it uses "return -code return", which makes its caller return. I find this unnecessary complex, versus just returning a boolean. Modify it to do so.

2021-09-27gdb.base/foll-fork.exp: remove gating based on target tripletSimon Marchi1-7/+0
It looks like this test has some code to check at runtime the support of fork handling of the target (see check_fork_catchpoints). So, it seems to me that the check based on target triplet at the beginning of the test is not needed. This kind of gating is generally not desirable, because we wouldn't think of updating it when adding fork support to a target. For example, FreeBSD supports fork, but it wasn't listed here.

2021-09-27[gdb/build] Fix build with g++-4.8Tom de Vries1-2/+6
When building g++-4.8, we run into: ... src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:919:5: error: multiple fields in union \ 'partial_die_info::<anonymous union>' initialized ... This is due to: ... union { struct { CORE_ADDR lowpc = 0; CORE_ADDR highpc = 0; }; ULONGEST ranges_offset; }; ... The error looks incorrect, given that only one union member is initialized, and does not reproduce with newer g++. Nevertheless, work around this by moving the initialization to a constructor. [ I considered just removing the initialization, with the idea that access should be guarded by has_pc_info, but I ran into one failure in the testsuite, for gdb.base/check-psymtab.exp due to add_partial_symbol using lowpc without checking has_pc_info. ] Tested on x86_64-linux.
2021-09-27gdb: add setting to disable reading source code filesAndrew Burgess7-3/+179
In some situations it is possible that a user might not want GDB to try and access source code files, for example, the source code might be stored on a slow to access network file system. It is almost certainly possible that using some combination of 'set directories' and/or 'set substitute-path' a user can trick GDB into being unable to find the source files, but this feels like a rather crude way to solve the problem. In this commit a new option is add that stops GDB from opening and reading the source files. A user can run with source code reading disabled if this is required, then re-enable later if they decide that they now want to view the source code.
2021-09-27gdb: remove duplicate cmd_list_element declarationsAndrew Burgess2-104/+33
For some reason we have two locations where cmd_list_elements are declared, cli/cli-cmds.h and gdbcmd.h. Worse still there is duplication between these two locations. In this commit I have moved all of the cmd_list_element declarations from gdbcmd.h into cli/cli-cmds.h and removed the duplicates. There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
2021-09-27gdb: prevent an assertion when computing the frame_id for an inline frameAndrew Burgess5-9/+344
I ran into this assertion while GDB was trying to unwind the stack: gdb/inline-frame.c:173: internal-error: void inline_frame_this_id(frame_info*, void**, frame_id*): Assertion `frame_id_p (*this_id)' failed. That is, when building the frame_id for an inline frame, GDB asks for the frame_id of the previous frame. Unfortunately, no valid frame_id was returned for the previous frame, and so the assertion triggers. What is happening is this, I had a stack that looked something like this (the arrows '->' point from caller to callee): normal_frame -> inline_frame However, for whatever reason (e.g. broken debug information, or corrupted stack contents in the inferior), when GDB tries to unwind "normal_frame", it ends up getting back effectively the same frame, thus the call stack looks like this to GDB: .-> normal_frame -> inline_frame | | '-----' Given such a situation we would expect GDB to terminate the stack with an error like this: Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?) However, the inline_frame causes a problem, and here's why: When unwinding we start from the sentinel frame and call get_prev_frame. We eventually end up in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, in here we create a raw frame, and as this is frame #0 we immediately return. However, eventually we will try to unwind the stack further. When we do this we inevitably needing to know the frame_id for frame #0, and so, eventually, we end up in compute_frame_id. In compute_frame_id we first find the right unwinder for this frame, in our case (i.e. for inline_frame) the $pc is within the function normal_frame, but also within a block associated with the inlined function inline_frame, as such the inline frame unwinder claims this frame. Back in compute_frame_id we next compute the frame_id, for our inline_frame this means a call to inline_frame_this_id. The ID of an inline frame is based on the id of the previous frame, so from inline_frame_this_id we call get_prev_frame_always, this eventually calls get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle again, which creates another raw frame and calls compute_frame_id (for frames other than frame 0 we immediately compute the frame_id). In compute_frame_id we again identify the correct unwinder for this frame. Our $pc is unchanged, however, the fact that the next frame is of type INLINE_FRAME prevents the inline frame unwinder from claiming this frame again, and so, the standard DWARF frame unwinder claims normal_frame. We return to compute_frame_id and call the standard DWARF function to build the frame_id for normal_frame. With the frame_id of normal_frame figured out we return to compute_frame_id, and then to get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, where we add the ID for normal_frame into the frame_id cache, and return the frame back to inline_frame_this_id. From inline_frame_this_id we build a frame_id for inline_frame and return to compute_frame_id, and then to get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, which adds the frame_id for inline_frame into the frame_id cache. So far, so good. However, as we are trying to unwind the complete stack, we eventually ask for the previous frame of normal_frame, remember, at this point GDB doesn't know the stack is corrupted (with a cycle), GDB still needs to figure that out. So, we eventually end up in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle where we create a raw frame and call compute_frame_id, remember, this is for the frame before normal_frame. The first task for compute_frame_id is to find the unwinder for this frame, so all of the frame sniffers are tried in order, this includes the inline frame sniffer. The inline frame sniffer asks for the $pc, this request is sent up the stack to normal_frame, which, due to its cyclic behaviour, tells GDB that the $pc in the previous frame was the same as the $pc in normal_frame. GDB spots that this $pc corresponds to both the function normal_frame and also the inline function inline_frame. As the next frame is not an INLINE_FRAME then GDB figures that we have not yet built a frame to cover inline_frame, and so the inline sniffer claims this new frame. Our stack is now looking like this: inline_frame -> normal_frame -> inline_frame But, we have not yet computed the frame id for the outer most (on the left) inline_frame. After the frame sniffer has claimed the inline frame GDB returns to compute_frame_id and calls inline_frame_this_id. In here GDB calls get_prev_frame_always, which eventually ends up in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle again, where we create a raw frame and call compute_frame_id. Just like before, compute_frame_id tries to find an unwinder for this new frame, it sees that the $pc is within both normal_frame and inline_frame, but the next frame is, again, an INLINE_FRAME, so, just like before the standard DWARF unwinder claims this frame. Back in compute_frame_id we again call the standard DWARF function to build the frame_id for this new copy of normal_frame. At this point the stack looks like this: normal_frame -> inline_frame -> normal_frame -> inline_frame After compute_frame_id we return to get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle, where we try to add the frame_id for the new normal_frame into the frame_id cache, however, unlike before, we fail to add this frame_id as it is a duplicate of the previous normal_frame frame_id. Having found a duplicate get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle unlinks the new frame from the stack, and returns nullptr, the stack now looks like this: inline_frame -> normal_frame -> inline_frame The nullptr result from get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle is fed back to inline_frame_this_id, which forwards this to get_frame_id, which immediately returns null_frame_id. As null_frame_id is not considered a valid frame_id, this is what triggers the assertion. In summary then: - inline_frame_this_id currently assumes that as the inline frame exists, we will always get a valid frame back from get_prev_frame_always, - get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle currently assumes that it is safe to return nullptr when it sees a cycle. Notice that in frame.c:compute_frame_id, this code: fi->this_id.value = outer_frame_id; fi->unwind->this_id (fi, &fi->prologue_cache, &fi->this_id.value); gdb_assert (frame_id_p (fi->this_id.value)); The assertion makes it clear that the this_id function must always return a valid frame_id (e.g. null_frame_id is not a valid return value), and similarly in inline_frame.c:inline_frame_this_id this code: *this_id = get_frame_id (get_prev_frame_always (this_frame)); /* snip comment */ gdb_assert (frame_id_p (*this_id)); Makes it clear that every inline frame expects to be able to get a previous frame, which will have a valid frame_id. As I have discussed above, these assumptions don't currently hold in all cases. One possibility would be to move the call to get_prev_frame_always forward from inline_frame_this_id to inline_frame_sniffer, however, this falls foul of (in frame.c:frame_cleanup_after_sniffer) this assertion: /* No sniffer should extend the frame chain; sniff based on what is already certain. */ gdb_assert (!frame->prev_p); This assert prohibits any sniffer from trying to get the previous frame, as getting the previous frame is likely to depend on the next frame, I can understand why this assertion is a good thing, and I'm in no rush to alter this rule. The solution proposed here takes onboard feedback from both Pedro, and Simon (see the links below). The get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle function is renamed to get_prev_frame_maybe_check_cycle, and will now not do cycle detection for inline frames, even when we spot a duplicate frame it is still returned. This is fine, as, if the normal frame has a duplicate frame-id then the inline frame will also have a duplicate frame-id. And so, when we reject the inline frame, the duplicate normal frame, which is previous to the inline frame, will also be rejected. In inline-frame.c the call to get_prev_frame_always is no longer nested inside the call to get_frame_id. There are reasons why get_prev_frame_always can return nullptr, for example, if there is a memory error while trying to get the previous frame, if this should happen then we now give a more informative error message.

2021-09-24Move value_true to value.hTom Tromey8-34/+20
I noticed that value_true is declared in language.h and defined in language.c. However, as part of the value API, I think it would be better in one of those files. And, because it is very short, I changed it to be an inline function in value.h. I've also removed a comment from the implementation, on the basis that it seems obsolete -- if the change it suggests was needed, it probably would have been done by now; and if it is needed in the future, odds are it would be done differently anyway. Finally, this patch also changes value_true and value_logical_not to return a bool, and updates some uses.

2021-09-24Fix handling of DW_AT_data_bit_offsetTom Tromey3-17/+114
A newer version of GCC will now emit member locations using just DW_AT_data_bit_offset, like: <3><14fe>: Abbrev Number: 1 (DW_TAG_member) <14ff> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x215e): nb_bytes <1503> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <1503> DW_AT_decl_line : 10 <1504> DW_AT_decl_column : 7 <1505> DW_AT_type : <0x150b> <1509> DW_AT_bit_size : 31 <150a> DW_AT_data_bit_offset: 64 whereas earlier versions would emit something like: <3><164f>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_member) <1650> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x218d): nb_bytes <1654> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <1655> DW_AT_decl_line : 10 <1656> DW_AT_decl_column : 7 <1657> DW_AT_type : <0x165f> <165b> DW_AT_byte_size : 4 <165c> DW_AT_bit_size : 31 <165d> DW_AT_bit_offset : 1 <165e> DW_AT_data_member_location: 8 That is, DW_AT_data_member_location is not emitted any more. This is a change due to the switch to DWARF 5 by default. This change pointed out an existing bug in gdb, namely that the attr_to_dynamic_prop depends on the presence of DW_AT_data_member_location. This patch moves the handling of DW_AT_data_bit_offset into handle_data_member_location, and updates attr_to_dynamic_prop to handle this new case. A new test case is included. This test fails with GCC 11, but passes with an earlier version of GCC.
2021-09-24[gdb/testsuite] Don't leave gdb instance running after function_rangeTom de Vries2-3/+9
A typical dwarf assembly test-case start like this: ... standard_testfile .c -debug.S set asm_file [standard_output_file $srcfile2] Dwarf::assemble $asm_file { ... } if { [prepare_for_testing "failed to prepare" ${testfile} \ [list $srcfile $asm_file] {nodebug}] } { return -1 } ... When accidentally using build_for_executable instead of prepare_for_testing (or intentionally using it but forgetting to add clean_restart $binfile or some such) the mistake may not be caught, because another gdb instance is still running, and we may silently end up testing compiler-generated DWARF. This can be caused by something relatively obvious, like an earlier prepare_for_testing or clean_restart, but also by something more obscure like function_range, which may even be triggered by dwarf assembly like this: ... {MACRO_AT_func {main}} ... Fix this by calling gdb_exit at the end of function_range. Also fix the fallout of that in test-case gdb.dwarf2/dw2-bad-elf.exp, where a get_sizeof call used the gdb instance left lingering by function_range. [ A better and more complete fix would add a new proc get_exec_info, that would be called at the start of the dwarf assembly body: ... Dwarf::assemble $asm_file { get_exec_info {main foo} {int void*} ... that would: - do a prepare_for_testing with $srcfile (roughtly equivalent to what MACRO_AT_func does, - call function_range for all functions main and foo, without starting a new gdb instance - set corresponding variables at the call-site: main_start, main_len, main_end, foo_start, foo_len, foo_end. - get size for types int and void* - set corresponding variables at the call-site: int_size, void_ptr_size. - do a gdb_exit. ] Tested on x86_64-linux.

I noticed two test-cases where -fpie is used. Using the canonical pie option will usually get one -fPIE instead. That choice is justified here in gdb_compile: ... # For safety, use fPIE rather than fpie. On AArch64, m68k, PowerPC # and SPARC, fpie can cause compile errors due to the GOT exceeding # a maximum size. On other architectures the two flags are # identical (see the GCC manual). Note Debian9 and Ubuntu16.10 # onwards default GCC to using fPIE. If you do require fpie, then # it can be set using the pie_flag. set flag "additional_flags=-fPIE" ... There is no indication that using -fpie rather than -fPIE is on purpose, so use pie instead. Tested on x86_64-linux.
