On <=RHEL6 hosts Fedora/RHEL GDB started to 'kill -STOP' all processes it
detached. Even those not originally T-stopped. This is a Fedora-specific
patch which is based on upstream GDB's PROC_STATE_STOPPED state.
I believe (I did not verify) this patch did regress it:

PR gdb/22046
* nat/linux-procfs.c (parse_proc_status_state): Fix PROC_STATE_STOPPED
detection.
This patch implements the ability to set/unset environment variables
on the remote target, mimicking what GDB already offers to the user.
There are two features present here: user-set and user-unset
environment variables.
User-set environment variables are only the variables that are
explicitly set by the user, using the 'set environment' command. This
means that variables that were already present in the environment when
starting GDB/GDBserver are not transmitted/considered by this feature.
User-unset environment variables are variables that are explicitly
unset by the user, using the 'unset environment' command.
The idea behind this patch is to store user-set and user-unset
environment variables in two separate sets, both part of gdb_environ.
Then, when extended_remote_create_inferior is preparing to start the
inferior, it will iterate over the two sets and set/unset variables
accordingly. Three new packets are introduced:
- QEnvironmentHexEncoded, which is used to set environment variables,
and contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR=VALUE" (VALUE
can be empty if the user set a variable with a null value, by doing
'set environment VAR=').
- QEnvironmentUnset, which is used to unset environment variables, and
contains an hex-encoded string in the format "VAR".
- QEnvironmentReset, which is always the first packet to be
transmitted, and is used to reset the environment, i.e., discard any
changes made by the user on previous runs.
The QEnvironmentHexEncoded packet is inspired on LLDB's extensions to
the RSP. Details about it can be seen here:
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/llvm-mirror/lldb/master/docs/lldb-gdb-remote.txt>
I decided not to implement the QEnvironment packet because it is
considered deprecated by LLDB. This packet, on LLDB, serves the same
purpose of QEnvironmentHexEncoded, but sends the information using a
plain text, non-hex-encoded string.
The other two packets are new.
This patch also includes updates to the documentation, testsuite, and
unit tests, without introducing regressions.

The problem of failing to build with arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++-4.8 was
that type CORE_ADDR is of "unsigned long" on a 64-bit machine so it's
OK to use %lx but is of type "unsigned long long" on a 32 bit system.
Fixed the problem in three places - (1) use a temp variable of type
CORE_ADDR as argument 3 when calling target_auxv_search() then assign
its value to "blksize" and "nbits" in 2 calls; (2) redo
adi_normalize_address() using masks and xor operators to calculate
normalized address; (3) call paddress() to print CORE_ADDR in either
printf_filtered() or error(). Thank you, Pedro, for all your
suggestions.

FreeBSD/mips kernels were recently changed to include the floating
point implementation revision register in the floating point register
set exported in process cores and via ptrace() (r318067). This change
will first ship in FreeBSD 12.0 when it is eventually released. The
space used to hold FIR was previously reserved in 'struct fpreg' as a
zero-filled dummy for padding, so 'struct fpreg' has not changed in
size. Since FIR should be non-zero on all MIPS processors supported
by FreeBSD, ignore a value of 0 from 'struct fpreg' and only report
non-zero values as a valid FIR register.

* mips-fbsd-nat.c (getfpregs_supplies): Return true for FIR.

Commit
Command names: make them case sensitive
3d7b173c29
made command name lookup case sensitive. However, define_command, used
when creating a user-defined command, converts the command name to
lowercase, assuming that the command name lookup works in a case
insensitive way. This causes user-defined commands with capital letters
in their name to only be callable with a lowercase version:
(gdb) define Foo
Type commands for definition of "Foo".
End with a line saying just "end".
>print 1
>end
(gdb) Foo
Undefined command: "Foo". Try "help".
(gdb) foo
$1 = 1
This patch removes that conversion to lowercase, so that the user can
call the command with the same name they provided.

* cli/cli-script.c (define_command): Don't convert command name
to lower case.

There is an assertion that is triggering when we start GDB and
instruct it to debug a remote inferior, but don't provide a local
binary, like:
./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory -ex "tar ext :1234" \
-ex "set remote exec-file /bin/ls" -ex r
In this case, when calling exec_file_locate_attach to locate the
inferior, GDB is incorrectly resetting the breakpoints without a
thread/inferior even running, which causes an assertion to be
triggered:
binutils-gdb/gdb/thread.c:1609: internal-error: scoped_restore_current_thread::scoped_restore_current_thread(): Assertion `tp != NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
This happens because add_current_inferior_and_thread (on remote.c) is
breaking an invariant: making inferior_ptid point to a non-existing
thread and then calling common code, which in this case is
breakpoint_re_set. The fix is to make sure that inferior_ptid points
to null_ptid if there is no thread present.
A testcase is provided. Regtested on buildbot.

The M7 processor supports an Application Data Integrity (ADI) feature
that detects invalid data accesses. When software allocates data, it
chooses a 4-bit version number, sets the version in the upper 4 bits
of the 64-bit pointer to that data, and stores the 4-bit version in
every cacheline of the object. Hardware saves the latter in spare
bits in the cache and memory hierarchy. On each load and store, the
processor compares the upper 4 VA (virtual address) bits to the
cacheline's version. If there is a mismatch, the processor generates a
version mismatch trap which can be either precise or disrupting. The
trap is an error condition which the kernel delivers to the process as
a SIGSEGV signal.
The upper 4 bits of the VA represent a version and are not part of the
true address. The processor clears these bits and sign extends bit 59
to generate the true address.
Note that 32-bit applications cannot use ADI.
This patch adds ADI support in gdb which allows the user to examine
current version tags and assign new version tags in the program. It
also catches and reports precise or disrupting memory corruption
traps.

With the following C++ code:
int bar() { return 0;}
int bar(int) { return 0; }
GDB behaves as:
(gdb) list bar
file: "overload.cc", line number: 1
file: "overload.cc", line number: 2
It would be better for GDB to list the actual code around those two
locations, not just print the location. Like:
(gdb) list bar
file: "overload.cc", line number: 1
1 int bar() { return 0;}
2 int bar(int) { return 0; }
file: "overload.cc", line number: 2
1 int bar() { return 0;}
2 int bar(int) { return 0; }
That's what this this commit implements.

This patch improves GDB support for function aliases defined with
__attribute__ alias. For example, in the test added by this commit,
there is no reference to "func_alias" in the debug info at all, only
to "func"'s definition:
$ nm ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep " func"
00000000004005ae t func
00000000004005ae T func_alias
$ readelf -w ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/symbol-alias/symbol-alias | grep func -B 1 -A 8
<1><db>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<dc> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x111): func
<e0> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<e1> DW_AT_decl_line : 27
<e2> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<e2> DW_AT_type : <0xf8>
<e6> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x4005ae
<ee> DW_AT_high_pc : 0xb
<f6> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<f8> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
So all GDB knows about "func_alias" is from the minsym (elf symbol):
(gdb) p func_alias
$1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func_alias
type = int ()
(gdb) p func
$2 = {struct S *(void)} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) ptype func
type = struct S {
int field1;
int field2;
} *(void)
The result is that calling func_alias from the command line produces
incorrect results.
This is similar (though not exactly the same) to the glibc
errno/__errno_location/__GI___errno_location situation. On glibc,
errno is defined like this:
extern int *__errno_location (void);
#define errno (*__errno_location ())
with __GI___errno_location being an internal alias for
__errno_location. On my system's libc (F23), I do see debug info for
__errno_location, in the form of name vs linkage name:
<1><95a5>: Abbrev Number: 18 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<95a6> DW_AT_external : 1
<95a6> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x2c26): __errno_location
<95aa> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<95ab> DW_AT_decl_line : 24
<95ac> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x2c21): __GI___errno_location
<95b0> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<95b0> DW_AT_type : <0x9206>
<95b4> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x20f40
<95bc> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x11
<95c4> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<95c6> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
however that doesn't matter in practice, because GDB doesn't record
demangled names anyway, and so we end up with the exact same situation
covered by the testcase.
So the fix is to make the expression parser find a debug symbol for
the same address as the just-found minsym, when a lookup by name
didn't find a debug symbol by name. We now get:
(gdb) p func_alias
$1 = {struct S *(void)} 0x4005ae <func>
(gdb) p __errno_location
$2 = {int *(void)} 0x7ffff6e92830 <__errno_location>
I've made the test exercise variable aliases too, for completeness.
Those already work correctly, because unlike for function aliases, GCC
emits debug information for variable aliases.
Tested on GNU/Linux.

Assuming int_t is a typedef to int:
typedef int int_t;
gdb currently loses this expression's typedef:
(gdb) p (int_t) 0
$1 = 0
(gdb) whatis $1
type = int
or:
(gdb) whatis (int_t) 0
type = int
or, to get "whatis" out of the way:
(gdb) maint print type (int_t) 0
...
name 'int'
code 0x8 (TYPE_CODE_INT)
...
This prevents a type printer for "int_t" kicking in, with e.g.:
(gdb) p (int_t) 0
From the manual, we can see that that "whatis (int_t) 0" command
invocation should have printed "type = int_t":
If @var{arg} is a variable or an expression, @code{whatis} prints its
literal type as it is used in the source code. If the type was
defined using a @code{typedef}, @code{whatis} will @emph{not} print
the data type underlying the @code{typedef}.
(...)
If @var{arg} is a type name that was defined using @code{typedef},
@code{whatis} @dfn{unrolls} only one level of that @code{typedef}.
That one-level stripping is currently done here, in
gdb/eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard, handling OP_TYPE:
...
else if (noside == EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS)
{
struct type *type = exp->elts[pc + 1].type;
/* If this is a typedef, then find its immediate target. We
use check_typedef to resolve stubs, but we ignore its
result because we do not want to dig past all
typedefs. */
check_typedef (type);
if (TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF)
type = TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (type);
return allocate_value (type);
}
However, this stripping is reachable in both:
#1 - (gdb) whatis (int_t)0 # ARG is an expression with a cast to
# typedef type.
#2 - (gdb) whatis int_t # ARG is a type name.
while only case #2 should strip the typedef. Removing that code from
evaluate_subexp_standard is part of the fix. Instead, we make the
"whatis" command implementation itself strip one level of typedefs
when the command argument is a type name.
We then run into another problem, also fixed by this commit:
value_cast always drops any typedefs of the destination type.
With all that fixed, "whatis (int_t) 0" now works as expected:
(gdb) whatis int_t
type = int
(gdb) whatis (int_t)0
type = int_t
value_cast has many different exit/convertion paths, for handling many
different kinds of casts/conversions, and most of them had to be
tweaked to construct the value of the right "to" type. The new tests
try to exercise most of it, by trying castin of many different
combinations of types. With:
$ make check TESTS="*/whatis-ptype*.exp */gnu_vector.exp */dfp-test.exp"
... due to combinatorial explosion, the testsuite results for the
tests above alone grow like:
- # of expected passes 246
+ # of expected passes 3811
You'll note that the tests exposed one GCC buglet, filed here:

This removes save_inferior_ptid, a cleanup function, in favor of
scoped_restore.
This also fixes a possible (it seems unlikely that it could happen in
practice) memory leak -- save_inferior_ptid should have used
make_cleanup_dtor, because it allocated memory.
I tested this on the buildbot. However, there are two caveats to
this. First, sometimes it seems I misread the results. Second, I
think this patch touches some platforms that can't be tested by the
buildbot. So, extra care seems warranted.

opcodes/arm-dis.c:print_insn may update disassemble_info.mach to
bfd_mach_arm_unknown unless USER_SPECIFIED_MACHINE_TYPE is marked.
When default_print_insn is called for the first time,
disassemble_info.mach is correctly set in GDB, but arm-dis.c:print_insn
sets it to bfd_mach_arm_unknown. Then, when default_print_insn is
called again (in a loop), it triggers the assert.
The patch fixes the assert by marking USER_SPECIFIED_MACHINE_TYPE so that
opcodes won't reset disassemble_info.mach.

This plugs a couple leaks introduced by commit fff8551cf5
("dwarf2read.c: Some C++fycation, use std::vector, std::unique_ptr").
The first problem is that nothing owns the temporary line_header that
handle_DW_AT_stmt_list creates in some cases. Before the commit
mentioned above, the temporary line_header case used to have:
make_cleanup (free_cu_line_header, cu);
and that cleanup was assumed to be run by process_die, after
handle_DW_AT_stmt_list returns and before child DIEs were processed.
The second problem is found in setup_type_unit_groups: that also used
to have a similar make_cleanup call, and ended up with a similar leak
after the commit mentioned above.
Fix both cases by recording in dwarf2_cu whether a line header is
owned by the cu/die, and have process_die explicitly free the
line_header if so, making use of a new RAII object that also replaces
the reset_die_in_process cleanup, while at it.
Thanks to Philippe Waroquiers for noticing the leak and pointing in
the right direction.
