Currently, the callers of ada_identical_enum_types_p must check that
both enum types have the same number of members. In another series
I'm working on, it was convenient to move this check into the callee
instead; and I broke this patch out to make that series a little

This commit updates GDB so that thread or inferior specific
breakpoints are only inserted into the program space in which the
specific thread or inferior is running.
In terms of implementation, getting this basically working is easy
enough, now that a breakpoint's thread or inferior field is setup
prior to GDB looking for locations, we can easily use this information
to find a suitable program_space and pass this to as a filter when
creating the sals.
Or we could if breakpoint_ops::create_sals_from_location_spec allowed
us to pass in a filter program_space.
So, this commit extends breakpoint_ops::create_sals_from_location_spec
to take a program_space argument, and uses this to filter the set of
returned sals. This accounts for about half the change in this patch.
The second set of changes starts from breakpoint_set_thread and
breakpoint_set_inferior, this is called when the thread or inferior
for a breakpoint changes, e.g. from the Python API.
Previously this call would never result in the locations of a
breakpoint changing, after all, locations were inserted in every
program space, and we just use the thread or inferior variable to
decide when we should stop. Now though, changing a breakpoint's
thread or inferior can mean we need to figure out a new set of
breakpoint locations.
To support this I've added a new breakpoint_re_set_one function, which
is like breakpoint_re_set, but takes a single breakpoint, and just
updates the locations for that one breakpoint. We only need to call
this function if the program_space in which a breakpoint's thread (or
inferior) is running actually changes. If the program_space does
change then we call the new breakpoint_re_set_one function passing in
the program_space which should be used to filter the new locations (or
nullptr to indicate we should set locations in all program spaces).
This filter program_space needs to propagate down to all the re_set
methods, this accounts for the remaining half of the changes in this
patch.
There were a couple of existing tests that created thread or inferior
specific breakpoints and then checked the 'info breakpoints' output,
these needed updating. These were:
gdb.mi/user-selected-context-sync.exp
gdb.multi/bp-thread-specific.exp

A user noticed that when an Ada program (including the runtime) is
compiled with -flto, then "catch exception" does not work -- even
though setting the equivalent breakpoint by hand does work.
Looking into this, it turns out that GCC puts the exception functions
from the Ada runtime into a CU that uses the C language, not Ada.
Then, when trying to look up the relevant symbol,
lookup_name_info::search_name_hash uses the "verbatim" form of the
symbol name (like "<__gnat_debug_raise_exception>") rather than the
"<>"-less form, causing the symbol not to be found.
This patch fixes the problem in two steps.
First, lookup_name_info::search_name_hash is changed to use the same
hack that language_defn::get_symbol_name_matcher uses. That is, when
the current language is Ada, verbatim-mode lookups are special-cased.
(This is a bit unfortunate; perhaps a better long term approach would
be to promote verbatim mode to a fundamental mode of
lookup_name_info.)
Second, although the above fixes the problem in the Ada language mode,
the code still fails in other languages. However, due to the way
these lookups are coded in ada-lang.c, I think it makes sense to
temporarily set the current language to Ada in
create_ada_exception_catchpoint.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.
A new test case that mimics the -flto scenario is included.

passing a value to `sfile`, swap the order so `objf` comes first, to
avoid having to pass a nullptr value to `sfile` when wanting to pass a

Ada 2022 includes iterated assignment for array initialization. This
patch implements a subset of this for gdb. In particular, only arrays
with integer index types really work -- currently there's no decent
way to get the index type in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode during
parsing. Fixing this probably requires the Ada parser to take a
somewhat more sophisticated approach to type resolution; and while
this would help fix another bug in this area, this patch is already
useful without it.
This patch is a refactoring to add a new aggregate_assigner type.
This type is passed to Ada aggregate assignment operations in place of
passing a number of separate arguments. This new approach makes it
simpler to change some aspects of aggregate assignment behavior.
Now that defs.h, server.h and common-defs.h are included via the
`-include` option, it is no longer necessary for source files to include
them. Remove all the inclusions of these files I could find. Update

I noticed that "info locals" on a certain large Ada program was very
slow. I tracked this down to ada_get_tsd_type expanding nearly every
CU in the program.
This patch fixes the problem by changing this code to use the more
efficient lookup_transparent_type which, unlike the Ada-specific
lookup functions, does not try to find all matching instances.
Note that I first tried fixing this by changing ada_find_any_type, but
this did not work -- I may revisit this approach at some later date.
Also note that the copyright dates on the test files are set that way
because I copied them from another test.
New in v2: the new test failed on the Linaro regression tester.
Looking at the logs, it seems that gdb was picking up a 'value' from
libgnat:
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0xf7e227a4 <ada.calendar.formatting.value>
This version renames the local variable in an attempt to work around
this.
v3: In v2, while trying to reproduce the problem locally, I
accidentally forgot to commit one of the changes.
ptype is a bit funny, in that it accepts both expressions and type
names. It also evaluates the resulting expression using
EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS -- which both seems sensible (as a user would
you expect ptype to possibly cause inferior execution?), but is also a
historical artifact of how expressions are implemented (there's no
EVAL_FOR_TYPE).
In Ada, calling a function with an array will sometimes result in a
"thick pointer" array descriptor being made. This is essentially a
structure holding a pointer and bounds information.
Currently, in such a callee, printing the type of the array will yield
funny results:
(gdb) print str.all
$1 = "Hello World"
(gdb) ptype str
type = array (<>) of character
(gdb) ptype str.all
type = array (1 .. 0) of character
That "1 .. 0" is the result of an EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS branch
trying to do "something" with an array descriptor, without doing too
much.
I tried briefly to make this code really dereference the array
descriptor and get the correct runtime type. However, that proved to
be tricky; it certainly can't be done for all access types, because
that will cause dynamic type resolution and end up printing just the
runtime type -- which with variants may be pretty far from what the
user may expect.
Instead, this patch arranges to just leave such types alone in this
situation. I don't think this should have an extra effects, because
things like array subscripting still work on thick pointers.
This patch also touches arrayptr.exp, because in that case the access
type is a "thin pointer", and this ensures that the output does not
change in that scenario.
I noticed a spot in ada-lang.c where the return value of
value_as_address was cast to CORE_ADDR -- a no-op cast. I searched
and found another. This patch fixes both.
We currently pass frames to function by value, as `frame_info_ptr`.
This is somewhat expensive:
- the size of `frame_info_ptr` is 64 bytes, which is a bit big to pass
by value
- the constructors and destructor link/unlink the object in the global
`frame_info_ptr::frame_list` list. This is an `intrusive_list`, so
it's not so bad: it's just assigning a few points, there's no memory
allocation as if it was `std::list`, but still it's useless to do
that over and over.
As suggested by Tom Tromey, change many function signatures to accept
`const frame_info_ptr &` instead of `frame_info_ptr`.
Some functions reassign their `frame_info_ptr` parameter, like:
void
the_func (frame_info_ptr frame)
{
for (; frame != nullptr; frame = get_prev_frame (frame))
{
...
}
}
I wondered what to do about them, do I leave them as-is or change them
(and need to introduce a separate local variable that can be
re-assigned). I opted for the later for consistency. It might not be
clear why some functions take `const frame_info_ptr &` while others take
`frame_info_ptr`. Also, if a function took a `frame_info_ptr` because
it did re-assign its parameter, I doubt that we would think to change it
to `const frame_info_ptr &` should the implementation change such that
it doesn't need to take `frame_info_ptr` anymore. It seems better to
have a simple rule and apply it everywhere.

In Ada, sometimes the compiler must emit array bounds by referencing
an artificial variable that's created for this purpose. However, with
optimization enabled, these variables can be optimized away.
Currently this can result in displays like:
(gdb) print mumble
$1 = (warning: unable to get bounds of array, assuming null array
)
This patch changes this to report that the array is optimized-out,
instead, which is closer to the truth, and more generally useful. For
example, Python pretty-printers can now recognize this situation.
In order to accomplish this, I introduced a new PROP_OPTIMIZED_OUT
enumerator and changed one place to use it. Reusing the "unknown"
state wouldn't work properly, because in C it is normal for array
bounds to be unknown.
This changes some of the Ada code to simplify symbol searches. For
example, if a function is being looked for, the search is narrowed to
use SEARCH_FUNCTION_DOMAIN rather than SEARCH_VFT. In one spot, a
search of the "struct" domain is removed, because Ada does not have a
tag domain.
This changes lookup_symbol and associated APIs to accept
domain_search_flags rather than a domain_enum.
Note that this introduces some new constants to Python and Guile. I
chose to break out the documentation patch for this, because the
internals here do not change until a later patch, and it seemed
simpler to patch the docs just once, rather than twice.
This changes quick_symbol_functions::lookup_global_symbol_language to
accept domain_search_flags rather than just a domain_enum, and fixes
up the fallout.
To avoid introducing any regressions, any code passing VAR_DOMAIN now
uses SEARCH_VFT.
That is, no visible changes should result from this patch. However,
it sets the stage to refine some searches later on.
This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.
Currently, the overload handling in Ada assumes that any two array
types are compatible. However, this is obviously untrue, and a user
reported an oddity where comparing two Ada strings resulted in a call
to the "=" function for packed boolean arrays.
This patch improves the situation somewhat, by requiring that the two
arrays have the same arity and compatible base element types. This is
still over-broad, but it seems safe and is better than the status quo.
The previous patch fixed the immediate performance problem with Ada
name matching, by having a subset of matches call
expand_symtabs_matching rather than expand_matching_symbols. However,
it seemed to me that expand_matching_symbols should not be needed at
all.
To achieve this, this patch changes ada_lookup_name_info::split_name
to use the decoded name, rather than the encoded name. In order to
make this work correctly, a new decoded form is used: one that does
not decode operators (this is already done) and also does not decode
wide characters. The latter change is done so that changes to the Ada
source charset don't affect the DWARF index.
With this in place, we can change ada-lang.c to always use
expand_symtabs_matching rather than expand_matching_symbols.
A user reported that certain operations -- like printing a large
structure -- could be slow. I tracked this down to
ada-lang.c:map_matching_symbols taking an inordinate amount of time.
Specifically, calls like the one to look for a parallel "__XVZ"
variable, in ada_to_fixed_type_1, could result in gdb walking over all
the entries in the cooked index over and over.
Looking into this reveals that
cooked_index_functions::expand_matching_symbols is not written
efficiently -- it ignores its "ordered_compare" parameter. While
fixing this would be good, it turns out that this entire method isn't
needed; so this series removes it.
However, the deletion is not done in this patch. This one, instead,
fixes the immediate cause of the slowdown, by using
objfile::expand_symtabs_matching when possible. This approach is
faster because it is more selective about which index entries to
examine.
This changes gdb to use the C++17 [[fallthrough]] attribute rather
than special comments.
This was mostly done by script, but I neglected a few spellings and so
also fixed it up by hand.
I suspect this fixes the bug mentioned below, by switching to a
standard approach that, presumably, clang supports.

The new_objfile observer is currently used to indicate both when a new

objfiles of a program space were just removed (when passed nullptr).
I think this is confusing (and Andrew apparently thinks so too [1]).
Add a new "all_objfiles_removed" observer to remove the second role from
"new_objfile".
Some existing users of new_objfile do nothing if the passed objfile is
nullptr. For them, we can simply drop the nullptr check. For others,
add a new all_objfiles_removed callback, and refactor things a bit to
keep the existing behavior as much as possible.
Some callbacks relied on current_program_space, and following
the refactoring now use either objfile->pspace or the pspace passed to
all_objfiles_removed. I think this should be relatively safe, and in
general a step in the right direction.
On the notify side, I found only one call site to change from
new_objfile to all_objfiles_removed, in clear_symtab_users. It is not

Ada has a few complexities when it comes to array handling. Currently
these are all handled in Ada-specific code -- but unfortunately that
means they aren't really accessible to Python.
This patch changes the Python code to defer to Ada when given an Ada
array. In order to make this work, one spot in ada-lang.c had to be
updated to set the "GNAT-specific" flag on an array type.
The test case for this will come in a later patch.
