2022-06-27Make GDBserver abort on internal error in development modePedro Alves1-0/+13
Currently, if GDBserver hits some internal assertion, it exits with error status, instead of aborting. This makes it harder to debug GDBserver, as you can't just debug a core file if GDBserver fails an assertion. I've had to hack the code to make GDBserver abort to debug something several times before. I believe the reason it exits instead of aborting, is to prevent potentially littering the filesystem of smaller embedded targets with core files. I think I recall Daniel Jacobowitz once saying that many years ago, but I can't be sure. Anyhow, that seems reasonable to me. Since we nowadays have a distinction between development and release modes, I propose to make GDBserver abort on internal error if in development mode, while keeping the status quo when in release mode. Thus, after this patch, in development mode, you get: $ ../gdbserver/gdbserver ../../src/gdbserver/server.cc:3711: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected. captured_main: Assertion `0' failed. Aborted (core dumped) $ while in release mode, you'll continue to get: $ ../gdbserver/gdbserver ../../src/gdbserver/server.cc:3711: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected. captured_main: Assertion `0' failed. $ echo $? 1 I do not think that this requires a separate configure switch. A "--target_board=native-extended-gdbserver" run on Ubuntu 20.04 ends up with: === gdb Summary === # of unexpected core files 29 ... for me, of which 8 are GDBserver core dumps, 7 more than without this patch.

2022-04-14Let std::thread check pass even without pthreadsTom Tromey1-10/+9
Currently, the configure check for std::thread relies on pthreads existing. However, this means that if std::thread is implemented for a non-pthreads host, then the check will yield the wrong answer. This happened in AdaCore internal builds. Here, we have this GCC patch: https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc-patches/2019-06/msg01840.html ... which adds mingw support to GCC's gthreads implementation, and also to std::thread. This configure change fixes this problem and enables threading for gdb.
2022-02-22gdbsupport: Add an event-pipe class.John Baldwin1-0/+15
This pulls out the implementation of an event pipe used to implement target async support in both linux-low.cc (gdbserver) and linux-nat.c (gdb). This will be used to replace the existing event pipe in linux-low.cc and linux-nat.c in future commits. Co-Authored-By: Lancelot SIX <lsix@lancelotsix.com>
2022-01-13gdb: don't use -Wmissing-prototypes with g++Andrew Burgess1-1/+65
This commit aims to not make use of -Wmissing-prototypes when compiling with g++. Use of -Wmissing-prototypes was added with this commit: commit a0761e34f054767de6d6389929d27e9015fb299b Date: Wed Mar 11 15:15:12 2020 -0400 gdb: enable -Wmissing-prototypes warning Because clang can provide helpful warnings with this flag. Unfortunately, g++ doesn't accept this flag, and will give this warning: cc1plus: warning: command line option ‘-Wmissing-prototypes’ is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ In theory the fact that this flag is not supported should be detected by the configure check in gdbsupport/warning.m4, but for users of ccache, this check doesn't work due to a long standing ccache issue: https://github.com/ccache/ccache/issues/738 The ccache problem is that -W... options are reordered on the command line, and so -Wmissing-prototypes is seen before -Werror. Usually this doesn't matter, but the above warning (about the flag not being valid) is issued before the -Werror flag is processed, and so is not fatal. There have been two previous attempts to fix this that I'm aware of. The first is: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-September/182148.html In this attempt, instead of just relying on a compile to check if a flag is valid, the proposal was to both compile and link. As linking doesn't go through ccache, we don't suffer from the argument reordering problem, and the link phase will correctly fail when using -Wmissing-prototypes with g++. The configure script will then disable the use of this flag. This approach was rejected, and the suggestion was to only add the -Wmissing-prototypes flag if we are compiling with gcc. The second attempt, attempts this approach, and can be found here: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-November/183076.html This attempt only adds the -Wmissing-prototypes flag is the value of GCC is not 'yes'. This feels like it is doing the right thing, unfortunately, the GCC flag is really a 'is gcc like' flag, not a strict, is gcc check. As such, GCC is set to 'yes' for clang, which would mean the flag was not included for clang or gcc. The entire point of the original commit was to add this flag for clang, so clearly the second attempt is not sufficient either. In this new attempt I have added gdbsupport/compiler-type.m4, this file defines AM_GDB_COMPILER_TYPE. This macro sets the variable GDB_COMPILER_TYPE to either 'gcc', 'clang', or 'unknown'. In future the list of values might be extended to cover other compilers, if this is ever useful. I've then modified gdbsupport/warning.m4 to only add the problematic -Wmissing-prototypes flag if GDB_COMPILER_TYPE is not 'gcc'. I've tested this with both gcc and clang and see the expected results, gcc no longer attempts to use the -Wmissing-prototypes flag, while clang continues to use it. When compiling using ccache, I am no longer seeing the warning.
2021-12-15New --enable-threading configure option to control use of threads in ↵Luis Machado1-1/+23
GDB/GDBserver Add the --enable-threading configure option so multithreading can be disabled at configure time. This is useful for statically-linked builds of GDB/GDBserver, since the thread library doesn't play well with that setup. If you try to run a statically-linked GDB built with threading, it will crash when setting up the number of worker threads. This new option is also convenient when debugging GDB in a system with lots of threads, where the thread discovery code in GDB will emit too many messages, like so: [New Thread 0xfffff74d3a50 (LWP 2625599)] If you have X threads, that message will be repeated X times. The default for --enable-threading is "yes".
2021-11-09Fix build on rhES5Tom Tromey1-0/+16
The rhES5 build failed due to an upstream import a while back. The bug here is that, while the 'personality' function exists, ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE is only defined in <linux/personality.h>, not <sys/personality.h>. However, <linux/personality.h> does not declare the 'personality' function, and <sys/personality.h> and <linux/personality.h> cannot both be included. This patch restores one of the removed configure checks and updates the code to check it. We had this as a local patch at AdaCore, because it seemed like there was no interest upstream. However, now it turns out that this fixes PR build/28555, so I'm sending it now.
2021-10-19Fix format_pieces selftest on WindowsTom Tromey1-0/+46
The format_pieces selftest currently fails on Windows hosts. The selftest doesn't handle the "%ll" -> "%I64" rewrite that the formatter may perform, but also gdbsupport was missing a configure check for PRINTF_HAS_LONG_LONG. This patch fixes both issues.
2021-10-04[gdb/build] Add CXX_DIALECT to CXXTom de Vries1-0/+8
Say we use a gcc version that (while supporting c++11) does not support c++11 by default, and needs an -std setting to enable it. If gdb would use the default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive, then we'd have: ... CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11" ... That mechanism however has the following problem (quoting from commit 0bcda685399): ... the top level Makefile passes CXX down to subdirs, and that overrides whatever gdb/Makefile may set CXX to. The result would be that a make invocation from the build/gdb/ directory would use "g++ -std=gnu++11" as expected, while a make invocation at the top level would not. ... Commit 0bcda685399 fixes this by using a custom AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX which does: ... CXX=g++ CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11 ... The problem reported in PR28318 is that using the custom instead of the default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX makes the configure test for std::thread support fail. We could simply add $CXX_DIALECT to the test for std::thread support, but that would have to be repeated for each added c++ support test. Instead, fix this by doing: ... CXX="g++ -std=gnu++11" CXX_DIALECT=-std=gnu++11 ... This is somewhat awkward, since it results in -std=gnu++11 occuring twice in some situations: ... $ touch src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c $ ( cd build/gdb; make V=1 dwarf2/read.o ) g++-4.8 -std=gnu++11 -x c++ -std=gnu++11 ... ... However, both settings are needed: - the switch in CXX for the std::thread tests (and other tests) - the switch in CXX_DIALECT so it can be appended in Makefiles, to counteract the fact that the top-level Makefile overrides CXX The code added in gdb/ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 is copied from the default AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX from autoconf-archive. Tested on x86_64-linux. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28318
2021-10-04gdbsupport: remove attempt to define TARGET_WORD_SIZEAndrew Burgess1-7/+0
In the gdbsupport configure.ac file, there is an attempt to define TARGET_WORD_SIZE. This is done by running grep on the file ../bfd/bfd-in3.h. The problem with this is, the file bfd-in3.h is generated into the bfd build directory when bfd is configured, and there is no dependency between the gdbsupport module and the bfd module, so, for example, if I do: $ ../src/configure $ make all-gdbsupport Then bfd will neither be configured, or built. In this case TARGET_WORD_SIZE ends up being defined, but with no value because the grep on bfd-in3.h fails. However, it turns out that this doesn't matter; we don't actually use TARGET_WORD_SIZE anywhere. My proposal in this commit is to just remove the definition of TARGET_WORD_SIZE, the alternative would be to add a dependency between configure-gdbsupport and configure-bfd into Makefile.def, but adding a dependency for something we don't need seems pretty pointless.

2020-09-16Require kinfo_get_file and kinfo_get_vmmap for FreeBSD hosts.John Baldwin1-1/+15
FreeBSD systems have provided these functions in libutil since 7.1 release. The most recent release without support is 6.4 released in November of 2008. This also requires libutil-freebsd on GNU/kFreeBSD systems.

2020-07-30Unify Solaris procfs and largefile handlingRainer Orth1-34/+83
GDB currently doesn't build on 32-bit Solaris: * On Solaris 11.4/x86: In file included from /usr/include/sys/procfs.h:26, from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/gdb/i386-sol2-nat.c:24: /usr/include/sys/old_procfs.h:31:2: error: #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment" #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment" ^~~~~ * On Solaris 11.3/x86 there are several more instances of this. The interaction between procfs and large-file support historically has been a royal mess on Solaris: * There are two versions of the procfs interface: ** The old ioctl-based /proc, deprecated and not used any longer in either gdb or binutils. ** The `new' (introduced in Solaris 2.6, 1997) structured /proc. * There are two headers one can possibly include: ** <procfs.h> which only provides the structured /proc, definining _STRUCTURED_PROC=1 and then including ... ** <sys/procfs.h> which defaults to _STRUCTURED_PROC=0, the ioctl-based /proc, but provides structured /proc if _STRUCTURED_PROC == 1. * procfs and the large-file environment didn't go well together: ** Until Solaris 11.3, <sys/procfs.h> would always #error in 32-bit compilations when the large-file environment was active (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64). ** In both Solaris 11.4 and Illumos, this restriction was lifted for structured /proc. So one has to be careful always to define _STRUCTURED_PROC=1 when testing for or using <sys/procfs.h> on Solaris. As the errors above show, this isn't always the case in binutils-gdb right now. Also one may need to disable large-file support for 32-bit compilations on Solaris. config/largefile.m4 meant to do this by wrapping the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE autoconf macro with appropriate checks, yielding ACX_LARGEFILE. Unfortunately the macro doesn't always succeed because it neglects the _STRUCTURED_PROC part. To make things even worse, since GCC 9 g++ predefines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on Solaris. So even if largefile.m4 deciced not to enable large-file support, this has no effect, breaking the gdb build. This patch addresses all this as follows: * All tests for the <sys/procfs.h> header are made with _STRUCTURED_PROC=1, the definition going into the various config.h files instead of having to make them (and sometimes failing) in the affected sources. * To cope with the g++ predefine of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64, -U_FILE_OFFSET_BITS is added to various *_CPPFLAGS variables. It had been far easier to have just #undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS in config.h, but unfortunately such a construct in config.in is commented by config.status irrespective of indentation and whitespace if large-file support is disabled. I found no way around this and putting the #undef in several global headers for bfd, binutils, ld, and gdb seemed way more invasive. * Last, the applicability check in largefile.m4 was modified only to disable largefile support if really needed. To do so, it checks if <sys/procfs.h> compiles with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 defined. If it doesn't, the disabling only happens if gdb exists in-tree and isn't disabled, otherwise (building binutils from a tarball), there's no conflict. What initially confused me was the check for $plugins here, which originally caused the disabling not to take place. Since AC_PLUGINGS does enable plugin support if <dlfcn.h> exists (which it does on Solaris), the disabling never happened. I could find no explanation why the linker plugin needs large-file support but thought it would be enough if gld and GCC's lto-plugin agreed on the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value. Unfortunately, that's not enough: lto-plugin uses the simple-object interface from libiberty, which includes off_t arguments. So to fully disable large-file support would mean also disabling it in libiberty and its users: gcc and libstdc++-v3. This seems highly undesirable, so I decided to disable the linker plugin instead if large-file support won't work. The patch allows binutils+gdb to build on i386-pc-solaris2.11 (both Solaris 11.3 and 11.4, using GCC 9.3.0 which is the worst case due to predefined _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also regtested on amd64-pc-solaris2.11 (again on Solaris 11.3 and 11.4), x86_64-pc-linux-gnu and i686-pc-linux-gnu. config: * largefile.m4 (ACX_LARGEFILE) <sparc-*-solaris*|i?86-*-solaris*>: Check for <sys/procfs.h> incompatilibity with large-file support on Solaris.

2020-03-20gdb: remove HAVE_DECL_PTRACESimon Marchi1-20/+0
I stumbled on this snippet in nat/gdb_ptrace.h: /* Some systems, in particular DEC OSF/1, Digital Unix, Compaq Tru64 or whatever it's called these days, don't provide a prototype for ptrace. Provide one to silence compiler warnings. */ #ifndef HAVE_DECL_PTRACE extern PTRACE_TYPE_RET ptrace(); #endif I believe this is unnecessary today and should be removed. First, the comment only mentions OSes we don't support (and to be honest, I had never even heard of). But most importantly, in C++, a declaration with empty parenthesis declares a function that accepts no arguments, unlike in C. So if this declaration was really used, GDB wouldn't build, since all ptrace call sites pass some arguments. Since we haven't heard anything about this causing some build failures since we have transitioned to C++, I conclude that it's not used. This patch removes it as well as the corresponding configure check. gdb/ChangeLog: * ptrace.m4: Don't check for ptrace declaration. * config.in: Re-generate. * configure: Re-generate. * nat/gdb_ptrace.h: Don't declare ptrace if HAVE_DECL_PTRACE is not defined. gdbserver/ChangeLog: * config.in: Re-generate. * configure: Re-generate. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: * config.in: Re-generate. * configure: Re-generate.
2020-03-12Move sourcing of development.sh to GDB_AC_COMMONSimon Marchi1-4/+5
The same is done for gdb, gdbserver and gdbsupport. I therefore think it makes sense to move that to GDB_AC_COMMON. It is required to move the call to GDB_AC_COMMON so it is before GDB_AC_SELFTEST in gdbserver/configure.ac, otherwise the $development variable isn't set when the code behind GDB_AC_SELFTEST executes. gdb/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh. * selftest.m4: Modify comment. * configure: Re-generate. gdbserver/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh, move GDB_AC_COMMON higher. * configure: Re-generate. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Don't source bfd/development.sh. * common.m4: Source bfd/development.sh. * configure: Re-generate.
2020-03-12gdb/selftest.m4: ensure $development is setSimon Marchi1-0/+5
Before commit 3d1e5a43cbe ("gdbsupport/configure.ac: source development.sh"), the GDB build in non-development mode (turn development to false in bfd/development.sh if you want to try) was broken because the gdbsupport configure script didn't source bfd/development.sh to set the development variable. Since the GDB_AC_SELFTEST macro relies on the `development` variable, I propose to modify it such that it errors out if $development does not have an expected value of "true" or "false". This could prevent a future similar problem from happening while refactoring the configure scripts.

While compiling with clang, I noticed it didn't catch cases where my function declaration didn't match my function definition. This is normally caught by gcc with -Wmissing-declarations. On clang, this is caught by -Wmissing-prototypes instead. Note that on gcc, -Wmissing-prototypes also exists, but is only valid for C and Objective-C. It gets correctly rejected by the configure script since gcc rejects it with: cc1plus: error: command line option '-Wmissing-prototypes' is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ -Werror So this warning flag ends up not used for gcc (which is what we want). gdb/ChangeLog: * configure: Re-generate. gdbserver/ChangeLog: * configure: Re-generate. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: * configure: Re-generate. * warning.m4: Enable -Wmissing-prototypes.
2020-03-05gdbsupport/configure.ac: source development.shVyacheslav Petrishchev1-0/+3
[Commit message by Simon Marchi] The GDB build in non-development mode (turn development to false in bfd/development.sh if you want to try) is currently broken: CXXLD gdb /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/disasm-selftests.c:218: error: undefined reference to 'selftests::register_test_foreach_arch(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&, void (*)(gdbarch*))' /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/disasm-selftests.c:220: error: undefined reference to 'selftests::register_test_foreach_arch(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&, void (*)(gdbarch*))' /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/frame.c:2310: error: undefined reference to 'selftests::register_test_foreach_arch(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&, void (*)(gdbarch*))' /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbarch-selftests.c:168: error: undefined reference to 'selftests::register_test_foreach_arch(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&, void (*)(gdbarch*))' /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbsupport/selftest.cc:96: error: undefined reference to 'selftests::reset()' This is because the gdbsupport configure script doesn't source bfd/development.sh to set the development variable. When $development is unset, GDB_AC_SELFTEST defaults to enabling selftests. I don't think the macro was written with this intention in mind, it just happens to be that way. So gdbsupport thinks selftests are enabled, while gdb thinks they are disabled. gdbsupport compiles in code that calls selftests:: functions, which are normally provided by gdb, but gdb doesn't provide them, hence the undefined references. Fix this by sourcing bfd/development.sh in gdbsupport/configure.ac, so that the development variable is set. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: * configure.ac: Added call development.sh. * configure: Regenerate.
2020-02-19Merge changes from GCC for the config/ directoryAndrew Burgess1-6/+23
GCC's config/ChangeLog since the last time this merge was done (in the binutils-gdb commit 0b4d000cc4e8e77c823) is included at the end of this commit message. It is worth noting that the binutils-gdb commit 301a9420d947da1458 added the file config/debuginfod.m4 which is not present in GCC's config/ directory. This file is preserved, unmodified, after this commit. In order to regenerate all of the configure files, I configured with --enable-maintainer-mode, and built the 'all' target. I then did the same thing on a source tree without this patch, and only committed those files that changed when this patch was added.

2020-01-17Fix gdbsupport buildPedro Alves1-46/+46
I'm seeing this on F27 (a clean build from scratch): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[3]: Entering directory '/home/pedro/brno/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/build/gdbsupport' CC gdb_tilde_expand.o In file included from /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdbsupport/../gnulib/import/libc-config.h:33:0, from ../gnulib/import/glob.h:544, from /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdbsupport/gdb_tilde_expand.c:22: ../bfd/config.h:7:4: error: #error config.h must be #included before system headers # error config.h must be #included before system headers ^~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ libc-config.h, where it includes config.h, says: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /* This is intended to be a good-enough substitute for glibc system macros like those defined in <sys/cdefs.h>, so that Gnulib code shared with glibc can do this as the first #include: #ifndef _LIBC # include <libc-config.h> #endif When compiled as part of glibc this is a no-op; when compiled as part of Gnulib this includes Gnulib's <config.h> and defines macros that glibc library code would normally assume. */ #include <config.h> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The issue is that that '#include <config.h>' picks up bfd's config.h instead of gnulib's. This problem doesn't trigger in the gdb dir because there we generate config.h under that exact name so gnulib's libc-config.h ends up picking gdb's config.h instead of gnulib.c and that ends up harmless. In gdbsupport, the config.h file is really named support-config.h, so that '#include <config.h>' in libc-config.h doesn't pick it like it would if it had the conventional config.h name. This patch fixes it by simply renaming gdbserver's support-config.h to config.h. gdbsupport/ChangeLog: 2020-01-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * configure.ac: Generate config.h instead of support-config.h. * common-defs.h: Include <gdbsupport/config.h> instead of <gdbsupport/support-config.h>. * Makefile.in: Regenerate. * configure: Regenerate.
2020-01-14Move many configure checks to common.m4Tom Tromey1-2/+1871
This moves many needed configure checks from gdb and gdbserver into common.m4. This helps gdbsupport, nat, and target be self-contained. The result is a bit spaghetti-ish, because gdbsupport uses another m4 file from gdb/. The resulting code is somewhat non-obvious. However, these problems already exist, so it's not really that much worse than what is already done. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-01-14 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Move many checks to ../gdbsupport/common.m4. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog 2020-01-14 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Remove any checks that were added to common.m4. * acinclude.m4: Include lib-ld.m4, lib-prefix.m4, and lib-link.m4. gdbsupport/ChangeLog 2020-01-14 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * configure, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, common.m4, config.in: Rebuild. * common.m4 (GDB_AC_COMMON): Move many checks from gdb/configure.ac. * acinclude.m4: Include bfd.m4, ptrace.m4.

2020-01-14Move gdbsupport to the top levelTom Tromey1-0/+10425
This patch moves the gdbsupport directory to the top level. This is the next step in the ongoing project to move gdbserver to the top level. The bulk of this patch was created by "git mv gdb/gdbsupport gdbsupport". This patch then adds a build system to gdbsupport and wires it into the top level. Then it changes gdb to use the top-level build. gdbserver, on the other hand, is not yet changed. It still does its own build of gdbsupport.
