An earlier attempt at doing this had failed (wouldn't work in GCCs
around 4.8, IIRC), but now that I try again, it works. I suspect that
my previous attempt did not use the pre C++14-safe void_t (in
traits.h).
I want to switch to this model because:
- It's the standard detection idiom that folks will learn starting
with C++17.
- In the enum_flags unit tests, I have a static_assert that triggers
a warning (resulting in build error), which GCC does not suppress
because the warning is not being triggered in the SFINAE context.
Switching to the detection idiom fixes that. Alternatively,
switching to the C++03-style expression-validity checking with a
varargs overload would allow addressing that, but I think that
would be going backwards idiomatically speaking.
- While this patch shows a net increase of lines of code, the magic
being added to traits.h can be removed in a few years when we start
requiring C++17.
gdbsupport/ChangeLog:
* traits.h (struct nonesuch, struct detector, detected_or)
(detected_or_t, is_detected, detected_t, detected_or)
(detected_or_t, is_detected_exact, is_detected_convertible): New.
* valid-expr.h (CHECK_VALID_EXPR_INT): Use gdb::is_detected_exact.
These methods now take/return a type_instance_flags instead of a raw
integer, so rename them accordingly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* c-typeprint.c (c_type_print_modifier): Adjust to rename.
* gdbtypes.c (address_space_name_to_int): Rename to ...
(address_space_name_to_type_instance_flags): ... this.
(address_space_int_to_name): Rename to ...
(address_space_type_instance_flags_to_name): ... this.
* gdbtypes.h (address_space_name_to_int): Rename to ...
(address_space_name_to_type_instance_flags): ... this.
(address_space_int_to_name): Rename to ...
(address_space_type_instance_flags_to_name): ... this.
* type-stack.c (type_stack::insert): Adjust to rename.
* type-stack.h (type_stack::insert): Likewise.
A later patch in this series will rewrite enum_flags fixing some API
holes. That would cause build failures around code using
type_instance_flags. Or rather, that should be using it, but wasn't.
This patch fixes it by using type_instance_flags throughout instead of
plain integers.
Note that we can't make the seemingly obvious change to struct
type::instance_flags:
- unsigned instance_flags : 9;
+ ENUM_BITFIELD (type_instance_flag_value) instance_flags : 9;
Because G++ complains then that 9 bits isn't sufficient for holding
all values of type_instance_flag_value.
So the patch adds an type::instance_flags() method, which takes care
of casting appropriately, and adds a separate type::set_instance_flags
method, following the pattern of the ongoing TYPE_XXX macro
elimination. This converts uses of TYPE_INSTANCE_FLAGS to
type::instance_flags() in the places where the code was already being
touched, but there are still many references to the
TYPE_INSTANCE_FLAGS macro left behind. Those could/should be fully
replaced at some point.

Many global arrays in gdb could be marked "const" but are not. This
patch changes some of them. (There may be other arrays that could
benefit from this treatment. I only examined arrays of strings.)
This lets the linker move some symbols to the readonly data section.
For example, previously:
0000000000000000 d _ZL18can_use_agent_enum
is now:
0000000000000030 r _ZL18can_use_agent_enum

target_ops::wait implementations should not rely on the value of
inferior_ptid on entry. While looking at another wait-related patch, I
noticed that the code in linux_nat_wait_1, checking for a newly created
process, did just that. This patch fixes it. Note that I didn't see
any bug, this "fix" is simply to make the function respect the
target_ops::wait contract.
Instead of checking inferior_ptid, check for the passed in `ptid`
value.
During startup, linux_nat_wait_1 gets called a few times with the
pid-only ptid, while startup_inferior waits for the expected number of
exec events. For this reason, I needed to add a `find_lwp_pid` call to
ensure that the actions of changing the main thread's ptid, and adding
the initial lwp, were done only once for a given process.
This was not needed before, since thread_change_ptid, through the
thread_ptid_changed observer, ends up changing inferior_ptid. So the
second time around, inferior_ptid was not a pid-only ptid.
That find_lwp_pid won't add much overhead, as it will only be called
when the ptid is a pid-only ptid. And AFAIK, that only happens during
inferior startup.
An alternative to that `find_lwp_pid` call might be to make
startup_inferior realize that the main thread has changed ptid, and make
it wait for the new ptid. But that doesn't look easy to do.
Regtested on amd64/Linux.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* linux-nat.c (linux_nat_wait_1): Don't use inferior_ptid when
checking for initial lwp.

Recently I tried the m68k port of gdb. It had some issues, which are
fixed in this patch.
* Various types of return values were not being handled properly. In
particular:
* arrays are returned by following the same convention as
structures. This matters in languages like Ada, where an array
can in fact be returned as a value.
* "long double" was not being handled correctly in
m68k_svr4_return_value.
* GCC's m68k back end does not return vector types in registers, so
change gdb to follow.
* GCC's m68k back end doesn't faithfully implement the ABI, and so
some objects with unusual size (not possible in C, but possible in
Ada) are not returned correctly.
* gcc implements an m68k ABI variant that it simply describes as
"embedded". This ABI is similar to the SVR4 ABI, but rather than
returning pointer-typed values in %a0, such values are returned in
%d0. To support this, an ELF osabi sniffer is added.
* Commit 85f7484a ("m68k: tag floating-point ABI used") adds an
attribute that can be used to recognize when hard- or soft-float is
in use. gdb can now read this tag and choose the ABI accordingly.
I was unable to run the gdb test suite with this patch. Instead, I
tested it using qemu and the internal AdaCore test suite.

For Cortex-M targets using floating-point, eg the Cortex-M4F, its not possible
to get any call-stack backtrace if setting a breakpoint in ISR.
The exception stack unwinder for Cortex-M does not consider if floating-point
registers was stacked or not, further the Cortex-M has two stack pointers: MSP
(Main Stack Pointer) and PSP (Process Stack Pointer).
This is not handled when GDB tries to backtrace in the exception stack
unwinder.
This patch fixes this, and gives a correct call-stack backtrace from
breakpoints set in a handler or ISR.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* arm-tdep.c (arm_m_exception_cache): Try use correct stack
pointer and stack frame offset when unwinding.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/share-env-with-gdbserver.c (main): Call my_getenv
instead of getenv.
If a board file wants to customize how gdb is launched, the obvious
way is to have the board override gdb_spawn. However, that doesn't
work for either gdb.mi/ testcases or gdb.base/dbx.exp, because
default_mi_gdb_start and dbx_gdb_start don't use gdb_spawn currently.
That is fixed by this patch.
gdb/testsuite/
* gdb.base/dbx.exp (dbx_gdb_start): Adjust to use gdb_spawn
instead of spawning GDB with remote_spawn.
* lib/mi-support.exp (default_mi_gdb_start): Adjust to use
gdb_spawn instead of spawning GDB with remote_spawn.
gdb.dwarf2/atomic-type.exp and gdb.dwarf2/ada-linkage-name.exp fail
when testing with "clang -flto" as compiler, like:
$ make check TESTS="gdb.dwarf2/ada-linkage-name.exp" RUNTESTFLAGS="CC_FOR_TARGET='clang -flto'"
because with -flto, functions that aren't referenced anywhere are not
emitted in the final binary. Fix it by adding uses of the functions.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/ada-linkage-name.c (main): Move to the bottom of the
file and add calls to first and second.
* gdb.dwarf2/atomic.c (main): Move to the bottom of the file and
add call to f.
Currently -break-insert always creates a wildmatching breakpoint, and
there's no way to ask for a fullname match. To address that, this
patch adds the equivalent of "break -qualified" to MI:
"-break-insert --qualified".
For the testcase, curiously, it doesn't look like we have _any_
testcase that tests a breakpoint with multiple locations, and, the
existing mi_create_breakpoint / mi_make_breakpoint procedures are only
good for breakpoints with a single location. This patch thus adds a
few new companion routines to mi-support.exp for breakpoints with
multiple locations: mi_create_breakpoint_multi,
mi_make_breakpoint_loc, mi_make_breakpoint_multi.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS: Document "-break-insert --qualified".
* mi/mi-cmd-break.c (mi_cmd_break_insert_1): Handle "--qualified".
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Breakpoint Commands): Document
"-break-insert --qualified" and "-dprintf-insert --qualified".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-break-qualified.cc: New file.
* gdb.mi/mi-break-qualified.exp: New file.
* lib/mi-support.exp (mi_create_breakpoint_multi)
(mi_make_breakpoint_loc, mi_make_breakpoint_multi): New
procedures.
(mi_create_breakpoint_1): New, factored out from
mi_create_breakpoint.
gdb.cp/misc.cc seems to have been originally copied from
gdb.cp/classes.cc. The testcases that use it, misc.exp and
inherit.exp don't reference the "register" bits anywhere. Remove
them, since they trigger warnings with newer GCCs, given "register" is
being removed in C++17.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.cp/inherit.exp: No longer pass -Wno-deprecated-register.
* gdb.cp/misc.exp: No longer pass -Wno-deprecated-register.
* gdb.cp/misc.cc (class small, small::method, marker_reg1)
(register_class): Delete.
(main): Don't call register_class.
The gdb.cp/classes.exp testcase has one test that tries to exercise
the case of calling a method on a variable that has been put in a
register.
See the declaration of small in classes.cc:
/* Try to get the compiler to allocate a class in a register. */
class small {
public:
int x;
int method ();
};
and the comment in classes.exp:
# This class is so small that an instance of it can fit in a register.
# When gdb tries to call a method, it gets embarrassed about taking
# the address of a register.
#
# TODO: I think that message should be a PASS, not an XFAIL.
# gdb prints an informative message and declines to do something
# impossible.
#
# The method call actually succeeds if the compiler allocates very
# small classes in memory instead of registers. So this test does
# not tell us anything interesting if the call succeeds.

"register keyword has other uses, e.g. for -O0 code variables
declared with register keyword can be put into registers, while
variables declared without it always get stack slots."
"I think it does, without optimization. There's some unique GDB
tests that use this. It causes them to be live between statements in
a machine register instead of always stored in stack slots."
The "register" keyword seems to be ignored by the compiler nowadays
even at -O0, though. With or without the register keyword, the
variable is given a stack slot, at least on x86-64 with GCC 9.
However, if we use the GCC extension to put the variable
in a specific variable:

That's what this commit does.

Currently, with a program built from these sources:
$ cat extern.c
void foo () {}
$ cat static.c
static void foo () {}
$ cat main.c
int main () { return 0; }
... if you set a breakpoint on "foo", like:
(gdb) break foo
.. when there's debug info, GDB creates a breakpoint with two
locations, one for each of the external and static functions.
But, when there's no debug info, GDB creates a breakpoint with a
single location, for the external foo. Vis:
$ gcc extern.c static.c main.c -o classify.nodebug
$ gcc extern.c static.c main.c -o classify.debug -g
$ gdb classify.nodebug

(No debugging symbols found in classify.nodebug)

1.2 y 0x0000000000400492 in foo at static.c:1
GDB drops the static function is search_minsyms_for_name, where at the
very end of that function we pick only the locations with highest
classification, according to classify_type.
The classify_type logic was introduced here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2011-December/087864.html
which said:
"Previously, linespec was trying to filter out minsyms as they were
seen. However, this isn't faithful to gdb's historical approach,
which is to priority-order minsyms; see lookup_minimal_symbol."
lookup_minimal_symbol's intro says, in the .c file:
/* Look through all the current minimal symbol tables and find the
first minimal symbol that matches NAME. If OBJF is non-NULL, limit
the search to that objfile. If SFILE is non-NULL, the only file-scope
symbols considered will be from that source file (global symbols are
still preferred). Returns a pointer to the minimal symbol that
matches, or NULL if no match is found.
Note: One instance where there may be duplicate minimal symbols with
the same name is when the symbol tables for a shared library and the
symbol tables for an executable contain global symbols with the same
names (the dynamic linker deals with the duplication).
It's also possible to have minimal symbols with different mangled
names, but identical demangled names. For example, the GNU C++ v3
ABI requires the generation of two (or perhaps three) copies of
constructor functions --- "in-charge", "not-in-charge", and
"allocate" copies; destructors may be duplicated as well.
Obviously, there must be distinct mangled names for each of these,
but the demangled names are all the same: S::S or S::~S. */
struct bound_minimal_symbol
lookup_minimal_symbol (const char *name, const char *sfile,
struct objfile *objf)
{
If you look inside this function, you'll see:
/* External symbols are best. */
...
/* File-local symbols are next best. */
...
/* Symbols for shared library trampolines are next best. */
...
While this logic is good when you're looking for the single "best"
symbol by name, I question it for linespecs, since we want to set
breakpoints in all the multiple locations that match. I see no point
in hidding static functions.
Now, for breakpoints, it does make sense to filter out PLT/trampoline
symbols if we find the actual global matching function symbol.
Otherwise, if we did no filtering (i.e., just removed the
classify_type logic), you would end up with e.g.:
(gdb) b printf
Breakpoint 1 at 0x413a60 (2 locations)
(top-gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y <MULTIPLE>
1.1 y 0x0000000000413a60 <printf@plt>
1.2 y 0x00007ffff4653640 in __printf at printf.c:28
instead of this (which is what we get currently) before the shared
library is loaded (a location set in the PLT):
(gdb) b printf
Breakpoint 1 at 0x413a60
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y 0x0000000000413a60 <printf@plt>
and this after the library is loaded (only one location, no breakpoint
in the PLT):
(gdb) b printf
Breakpoint 1 at 0x7ffff4653640: file printf.c, line 28.
(gdb) info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
1 breakpoint keep y 0x00007ffff4653640 in __printf at printf.c:28
This patch fixes the missing breakpoint locations issue by replacing
the classify_type logic in linespec.c with a different logic.
Instead, discard a trampoline symbol if we also found a
global/external symbol with the same name. The patch adds a couple of
testcases testing locations in external vs static functions vs
trampolines/PLTs.
We now get:

Now that the GDB 10 branch has been created, we can
bump the version number.
gdb/ChangeLog:
GDB 10 branch created (8087c3fa8b):
* version.in: Bump version to 11.0.50.DATE-git.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/default.exp: Change $_gdb_major to 11.
I noticed this while testing the GDB in the context of the upcoming
GDB 10 release branching, because part of the process involves setting
development to False, which in turn changes the default for including
unittest to false as well. As a result, without this patch, we get
compilation errors in infrun.c such as:
infrun.c:9219:5: error: `scoped_mock_context' was not declared in this scope
This patch fixes it by bracketing the unitttest in namespace selftest
with an #if GDB_SELF_TEST.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* infrun.c (namespace selftests): Only define #if GDB_SELF_TEST.
Tested on x86_64-linux, with and without self-tests.
