This commit merges both the registers and $_siginfo "thread
running/executing" checks into a single function.
Accessing $_siginfo from a "catch signal" breakpoint condition doesn't
work. The condition always fails with "Selected thread is running":
(gdb) catch signal
Catchpoint 3 (standard signals)
(gdb)
condition $bpnum $_siginfo.si_signo == 5
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Error in testing breakpoint condition:
Selected thread is running.
Catchpoint 3 (signal SIGUSR1), 0x0000003615e35877 in __GI_raise (sig=10) at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:56
56 return INLINE_SYSCALL (tgkill, 3, pid, selftid, sig);
(gdb)
When accessing the $_siginfo object, we check whether the thread is
marked running (external/public) state and refuse the access if so.
This is so "print $_siginfo" at the prompt fails nicelly when the
current thread is running. While evaluating breakpoint conditionals,
we haven't decided yet whether the thread is going to stop, so
is_running still returns true, and we thus always error out.
Evaluating an expression that requires registers access is really
conceptually the same -- we could think of $_siginfo as a pseudo
register. However, in that case we check whether the thread is marked
executing (internal/private state), not running (external/public
state). Changing the $_siginfo validation to check is_executing as
well fixes the bug in question.
Note that checking is_executing is not fully correct, not even for
registers. See PR 19389. However, I think this is the lesser of two
evils and ends up as an improvement. We at least now have a single
place to fix.
Tested on x86_64 GNU/Linux.

gdb/gdbserver/../nat/linux-ptrace.c: In function 'linux_fork_to_function':
gdb/gdbserver/../nat/linux-ptrace.c:283: error: passing argument 1 of 'clone' from incompatible pointer type

int clone(int (*fn)(void *), void *child_stack,

so this patch changes function signature from 'void (*function) (gdb_byte *)'
to 'int (*function) (void *)'.
Note that I find Pedro advised to change argument type from 'void *'
to 'gdb_byte *' during the patch review
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-08/msg00611.html however,
I think fix compile error can justify the change back to 'void *'.

This patch changes the document that interrupt (ctrl-c) is not ignored
when the program is stopped.
When the interrupt was supported in remote target, people thought interrupt
is meaningless when the program is stopped. See
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2005-11/msg00349.htmlhttps://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2005-11/msg00307.html
recently we find it is hard to preserve this feature "ignore interrupt
while program is stopped" when we fix some other bugs. See
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-01/msg00039.html
so we think we can go to the simpler approach "not ignoring ctrl-c when
program is stopped". As a result, we tweak the documentation here.

There are a few errors when trying to run the performance testsuite with
Python 3. This commit fixes them.
In Python 2, it was possible to use relative imports (importing a module
relative to the current one). In Python 3 it isn't. So I use
absolute_import from the __future__ module, which allows Python 2 to
behave like Python 3, and use the Python 3 syntax.
In Python 3, dict.iterkeys doesn't exist anymore. Using dict.keys is a
good compromise in this case.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.perf/lib/perftest/perftest.py: Change relative imports to
absolute.
(SingleStatisticTestResult.report): Use dict.keys instead of
dict.iterkeys.

when GDB goes to python extension, or other language extension, the
SIGINT handler is changed, and is restored when GDB leaves extension
language. GDB only stays in extension language for a very short period
in this case, but if ctrl-c is pressed at that moment, python extension
will handle the SIGINT, and exceptions.KeyboardInterrupt is shown.
Language extension is used in GDB side rather than inferior side,
so GDB should only change SIGINT handler for extension language when
the terminal is ours (not inferior's). This is what this patch does.
With this patch applied, I run random-signal.exp in a loop for 18
hours, and no fail is shown.

Hi,
I see timeout in one of several runs of random-signal.exp like this,
$ (set -e; while true; do make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=native-gdbserver random-signal.exp"; done)
In about every five runs, we can see a fail,
PASS: gdb.base/random-signal.exp: continue
^CFAIL: gdb.base/random-signal.exp: stop with control-c (timeout)
after some investigation, I find '\003' may be discarded by GDBserver when
it is expecting '$'. In GDB side, both normal packets and '\003' are sent
via function send, but GDBserver may receive them at any time, that is to
say, in the receive buffer in GDBserver, '\003' may appear before or after
normal packet. However, current GDBserver doesn't handle this case.
With this patch applied, I don't see this fail in multiple runs.
Although there is still timeout fail, that is a different problem, the
next patch will fix it.

There has never been a GNU/sim port for the S+Core architecture.
It was added to support private code that has (and most likely
never will) see the light of day [1]. Punt this as we don't do
this for other people. If you want to maintain a proprietary
internal build, then that's not really our problem.

Multitarget builds currently fail when:
(1) simulator support is enabled (the main --target supports target sim)
(2) powerpc is included in the --enable-targets list
(3) powerpc is not the main/default target (--target)
This is because the powerpc sim provides a non-standard API function
sim_spr_register_name which gdb/rs6000-tdep.c utilizes. Since the sim
does not yet support multitarget, only the sim (if one exists) for the
main target is built. When that target isn't powerpc, this function
is not available leading to linking errors:
rs6000-tdep.c:(.text+0x1e34d): undefined reference to
`sim_spr_register_name'
Fix this by only using that API if the sim linked in is the powerpc
sim.

gdb/testsuite/
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_test): Update comments to clarify that the
PATTERN argument is optional.
The current approach when building Ada programs for testing is
based on the use of a project file (testsuite/gdb.ada/gnat_ada.gpr).
To do that, we pass a number of additional arguments to target_compile,
one of them being the project file (via "-P/path/to/gnat_ada.gpr").
This used to work well-enough, but AdaCore is currently working towards
removing project-file support from gnatmake (the prefered tool for
using project files is gprbuild). So, we need to either switch
the compilation to gprbuild, or stop using project files.
First, using gprbuild is not always what users will be using to
build their applications. So having the option of using gnatmake
provides more flexibility towards exactly reproducing past bugs.
If we ever need a testcase that requires the use of gprbuild, then
I believe support for a new target needs to be added to dejagnu's
target_compile.
Also, the only real reason behind using a project file in the first
place is that we wanted to make it easy to specify the directory
where all compilation artifacts get stored. This is a consequence
of the organization choice we made for gdb.ada to keep each testcase
well organized. It is very easy to achieve that goal without using
project files.
This is therefore what this patch does: It change gdb_compile_ada
to build any program using gnatmake without using a project file
(by temporarily changing the current working directory).
There is a small (beneficial) side-effect; in the situation where
GDB is built in-tree, gnatmake is called as...
% gnatmake [...] unit.adb
... which means that the debugging info in unit.o will say contain
a filename whose name is 'unit.adb', rather than '/path/to/unit.adb'.
This also better matches what users might typically do. But the side-
effect is that the unit name in the GDB output is not always a full
path. This patch tweaks a couple of testcases to make the path part
optional.

With any program under GDBserver control on LynxOS, killing
the program from the debugger (using the "kill" command) causes
GDBserver to properly kill the inferior but GDBserver then hangs.
This change of behavior occured after the following change was
applied:
commit f0ea042932e6922c90df3fd0001497d287b97677
Date: Mon Nov 30 16:05:27 2015 +0000
Subject: gdbserver: don't exit until GDB disconnects
One of the changes introduced by the commit above is that
process_serial_event no longer calls exit after handling
the vKill packet. Instead, what happens is that we wait
until captured_main finds that we no longer have any inferior
to debug, at which point it throws_quit. This (normal) exception
is then expected to propagate all the way to the exception handle
in function "main", which calls exit.
However, before the exception gets propagated, the cleanups
are first executed, and one of the cleanups in question is
detach_or_kill_for_exit_cleanup, which was put in place by
captured_main. detach_or_kill_for_exit_cleanup is basically
a wrapper around detach_or_kill_for_exit, which iterates
over all inferiors, and kills them all.
In our case, we have only one inferior, which we have already
killed during the handling for the "vKill" packet. Unfortunately,
we did not properly clean our internal data for that inferior up,
and so detach_or_kill_for_exit thinks that we still have one inferior,
and therefore tries to kill it. This results in lynx_kill being
called, doing the following:
lynx_ptrace (PTRACE_KILL, ptid, 0, 0, 0);
lynx_wait (ptid, &status, 0);
the_target->mourn (process);
The hang is caused by the call to lynx_wait, which waits for
an event from a process which does not exist...
This patch fixes the issue by enhancing lynx_mourn to clean
the threads and process list up.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* lynx-low.c (lynx_delete_thread_callback): New function.
(lynx_mourn): Properly delete our process and all of its
threads. Remove call to clear_inferiors.
Connecting GDB to a LynxOS-178 GDBserver causes GDBserver to crash:
% gdbserver :4444 simple_main
Process simple_main created; pid = 19
Listening on port 4444
Remote debugging from host 205.232.38.10
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The crash happens in thread_search_callback where the function
calls the_target->thread_stopped (via the thread_stopped macro)
without verifying whether the callback is NULL or not.
For the record, the regression was introduced by:
commit a67a9faef0
Date: Mon Nov 30 16:05:26 2015 +0000
Subject: gdbserver:prepare_access_memory: pick another thread
This patch avoids the crash by checking the value of the callback
first, before calling it.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

the thread_stopped target callback is not NULL before
calling it.
The following change...
commit 43499ea30d
Date: Tue Nov 17 15:17:44 2015 +0000
Subject: [C++/mingw] windows-nat.c casts
... causes a small regression in GDB, where we get the following
warning at startup:
% gdb
C:\[...]\gdb.exe: warning: cannot automatically find executable file or library to read symbols.
Use "file" or "dll" command to load executable/libraries directly.
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.10.50.20151218-cvs (with AdaCore local changes)
[...]
(gdb)
The warning comes from _initialize_loadable which tries to dynamically
load some symbols from kernel32.dll and psapi.dll, and in particular:
hm = LoadLibrary ("psapi.dll");
if (hm)
{
GPA (hm, EnumProcessModules);
GPA (hm, GetModuleInformation);
GPA (hm, GetModuleFileNameEx);
}
The problem is that the new GPA macro assumes that the name of
the variable we use to point to the function, and the name of
its associated symbol are the same. This is mostly the case,
except for GetModuleFileNameEx, where the name is provided by
the GetModuleFileNameEx_name macro (defined differently depending
on whether we are on cygwin or not). As a result, the dynamic
resolution for GetModuleFileNameEx returns NULL, and we trip
the following check which leads to the warning:
if (!EnumProcessModules || !GetModuleInformation || !GetModuleFileNameEx)
{
[...]
warning(_("[...]"));
}
This patch fixes the problem by calling GetProcAddress directly,
rather than through the GPA macro, but in a way which hopefully
avoids the C++ compilation warning that the previous patch was
trying to get rid of.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* windows-nat.c (_initialize_loadable): Fix computing of
GetModuleFileNameEx.

This patch adds some documentation to gdb_compile. It describes the

handled by DejaGnu, but are not really documented anywhere, so I think

are relevant in the context of writing a test case.

regcache_raw_get_unsigned so that GDB and GDBServer can use the same call
to fetch a raw register into an integer.
No regressions, tested on ubuntu 14.04 ARMv7 and x86.

This patch is in preparation for software single step support on ARM in
GDBServer. It refactors arm_*_software_single_step and sub-functions to
use regcache instead of frame to access registers so that the code can be
shared more easily between GDB and GDBServer.
Note also that since the intention is at some point to get rid of frame
completely in that function, memory reads have also been replaced by
read_memory_unsigned_integer rather than get_frame_memory_unsigned.

This patch in preparation for software single step support on ARM. It refactors
breakpoint_reinsert_addr into get_next_pcs so that multiple location can be
returned.
When software single stepping there can be multiple possible next addresses
because we're stepping over a conditional branch instruction, for example.
The operation get_next_pcs handles that by returning a vector of all the
possible next addresses.
Software breakpoints are installed at each location returned.

[PATCH] Remove support for LinuxThreads and vendor 2.4 kernels w/ backported NPTL
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-12/msg00214.html
We try to avoid using libthread_db.so to list threads in the inferior
when debugging live processes, but the code that decides whether to
use it decides incorrectly if you have more than one inferior, and the
current inferior doesn't have execution yet. The result is visible
as:
(gdb) add-inferior
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
1 process 15397 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads
* 2 <null>
(gdb) info threads
Cannot find new threads: generic error
(gdb)
Fix this by checking whether each inferior has execution rather than
just the current inferior.
By moving the core updating to linux-nat.c's update_thread_list
implementation, this also ends up fixing the
lwp-last-seen-running-on-core updating in the case we're debugging a
program that uses raw clone rather than pthreads, as linux-thread-db.c
isn't pushed in the target stack in that scenario.

Since we now rely on PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE being available (added in
Linux 2.5.46), we're relying on NPTL.
This commit removes the support for older LinuxThreads, as well as the
workarounds for vendor 2.4 kernels with NPTL backported.
- Rely on tkill being available.
- Assume gdb doesn't get cancel signals.
- Remove code that checks the LinuxThreads restart and cancel signals
in the inferior.
- Assume that __WALL is available.
- Assume that non-leader threads report WIFEXITED.
- Thus, no longer need to send signal 0 to check whether threads are
still alive.
- Update comments throughout.

The problem is that an instance of stack_item_t is created to adjust
stack for alignment, the item.len is correct, but item.data is buf,
which is wrong, because item.len can be greater than the length of
buf. This patch sets item.data to NULL, and only update sp (no
inferior memory writes on stack for this item).

We have code in configure.ac that tries to detect whether the compiler

with "-Wno-" options, because gcc doesn't error out for

This patch implements documentation updates for target remote mode fork and
exec events. A summary of the rationale for the changes made here:
* Connecting to a remote target -- explain that the two protocols exist.
* Connecting in target remote mode -- explain invoking gdbserver for target
remote mode, and move remote-specific text from original "Connecting to a
remote target" section.
* Connecting in target extended-remote mode -- promote this section from
"Using the gdbserver Program | Running gdbserver | Multi-Process Mode for
gdbserver". Put it next to the target remote mode section.
* Host and target files -- collect paragraphs dealing with how to locate
symbol files from original sections "Connecting to a remote target" and
"Using the gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver".
* Steps for connecting to a remote target -- used to be "Using the
gdbserver program | Connecting to gdbserver"
* Remote connection commands -- used to be the bulk of "Connecting to a
remote target". Added "target extended-remote" commands and information.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS: Announce fork and exec event support for target remote.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Forks): Correct Linux kernel version where
fork and exec events are supported, add notes about support
of these events in target remote mode.
(Connecting): Reorganize and clarify distinctions between
target remote, extended-remote, and multiprocess.
Reorganize related text from separate sections into new
sections.
(Server): Note effects of target extended-remote mode.
Delete section on Multi-Process Mode for gdbserver.
Move some text to "Connecting" node.
This patch implements support for fork and exec events with target remote
mode Linux targets. For such targets with Linux kernels 2.5.46 and later,
this enables follow-fork-mode, detach-on-fork and fork and exec
catchpoints.
The changes required to implement this included:
* Don't exit from gdbserver if there are still active inferiors.
* Allow changing the active process in remote mode.
* Enable fork and exec events in remote mode.
* Print "Ending remote debugging" only when disconnecting.
* Combine remote_kill and extended_remote_kill into a single function
that can handle the multiple inferior case for target remote. Also,
the same thing for remote_mourn and extended_remote_mourn.
* Enable process-style ptids in target remote.
* Remove restriction on multiprocess mode in target remote.

remote.
(remote_pid_to_str): Enable "process" style ptid string for
target remote.
(remote_supports_multi_process): Remove restriction on target
remote mode.
This patch updates tests for fork and exec events in target remote mode.
In the majority of cases this was a simple matter of removing some code
that disabled the test for target remote. In a few cases the test needed
to be disabled; in those cases the gdb_protocol was checked instead of
using the [is_remote target] etc.
In a couple of cases we needed to use clean_restart, since target remote
doesn't support the run command, and in one case we had to modify an expect
expression to allow for a "multiprocess-style" ptid.
Tested with the patch that implemented target remote mode fork and exec
event support.

gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-cmds.c (_initialize_cli_cmds): Extend help text for

When a a user uses 'list +' to list forward through a source file they
eventually reach the end of the source file. Subsequent uses of 'list
+' result in an error message like this, that let the user know they are
at the end of the source file:
Line number XXX out of range; FILENAME has YYY lines.
Compare this to the current behaviour of 'list -' which lists backwards
through a source file. When the user reaches the beginning of the
source file, subsequent uses of 'list -' result in the command silently
returning. This can be confusing if the previous uses of 'list -' have
scrolled off the users display, the user receives no reminder that the
have already seen the start of the file.
After this commit a use of 'list -' when the user has already seen the
start of a file will receive the following error:
Already at the start of FILENAME.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-cmds.c (list_command): Add an error when trying to use
'-' to scan read off the start of the source file.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

test.
(test_repeat_list_command): Add end of file error test.
(test_list_backwards): Add beginning of file error test.
There is an inconsistency with the handling of the special +/- arguments
to the list command.
For the very first time that list is used (after the inferior has
changed locations) then only the first character of the argument string
is checked, so 'list +BLAH' will operate as 'list +' and 'list -----FOO'
will operate as 'list -'. This compares to each subsequent use of list,
where the whole argument string is checked, so 'list +BLAH' will try to
list lines of code around the function '+BLAH'.
This commit unifies the behaviour so that the whole argument string is
checked, in order to list the next 10, or previous 10 lines from a file
only 'list +' and 'list -' are now valid.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-cmds.c (list_command): Check that the argument string is
a single character, either '+' or '-'.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/list.exp (test_list_invalid_args): New function,
defined, and called.

inside a single if block, this helps group all related functionality
together. There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

warnings. The warnings in question all come from missing headers,
like e.g.:
src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.multi/multi-arch-exec.c:28:3: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'exit' [enabled by default]
exit (1);
^
There's no point in trying to avoid to include standard headers. In
gdb.base/hangout.c's case, it's even dangerous, as that file calls
printf. In order to compile a call to a variatic function correctly,
a declaration must be visible.

Before, on systems that did not support PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE, both GDB and
GDBServer coordinated with libthread_db.so to insert breakpoints at magic
locations in libpthread.so, in order to break at thread creation and
thread death.
Support for thread events was removed from GDBServer as patch:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-11/msg00466.html

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2015-12-10 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Stack): Reorder menu.
It is possible to use multiple base addresses within a single address
range series, within the .debug_ranges section. The following is a
simplified example for 32-bit addresses:
.section ".debug_ranges"
.4byte 0xffffffff
.4byte BASE_1
.4byte START_OFFSET_1
.4byte END_OFFSET_1
.4byte START_OFFSET_2
.4byte END_OFFSET_2
.4byte 0xffffffff
.4byte BASE_2
.4byte START_OFFSET_3
.4byte END_OFFSET_3
.4byte 0
.4byte 0
In this example START/END 1 and 2 are relative to BASE_1, while
START/END 3 are relative to BASE_2.
Currently gdb does not correctly parse this DWARF, resulting in
corrupted address range information. This commit fixes this issue, and
adds a new test to cover this case.
In order to support testing of this feature extensions were made to the
testsuite dwarf assembler, additional functionality was added to the
.debug_line generation function, and a new function for generating the
.debug_ranges section was added.

FAIL: gdb.base/vla-ptr.exp: print td_vla
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-vla-c99.exp: evaluate complete vla
The first failure in this bunch occurs due to printing an incorrect
result for a variable length array:
print int_vla
$1 = {-1, -1, -1, -1, -1}
The result should actually be this:
$1 = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}
When I started examining this bug, I found that printing an
individual array element worked correctly. E.g. "print int_vla[2]"
resulted in 4 being printed. I have not looked closely to see why
this is the case.
I found that evaluation of the location expression for int_vla was
causing problems. This is the relevant DWARF entry for int_vla:
<2><15a>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_variable)
<15b> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xbf): int_vla
<15f> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<160> DW_AT_decl_line : 35
<161> DW_AT_type : <0x393>
<165> DW_AT_location : 4 byte block: 86 7a 94 2 (DW_OP_breg22 (r22): -6; DW_OP_deref_size: 2)
I found that DW_OP_breg22 was providing a correct result.
DW_OP_deref_size was fetching the correct value from memory. However,
the value being fetched should be considered a pointer.
DW_OP_deref_size zero extends the fetched value prior to pushing
it onto the evaluation stack. (The DWARF-4 document specifies this
action; so GDB is faithfully implementing the DWARF-4 specification.)
However, zero extending the pointer is not sufficient for converting
that value to an address for rl78 and (perhaps) other architectures
which define a `pointer_to_address' method. (I suspect that m32c
would have the same problem.)
Ideally, we would perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. We don't, however, know the type of the object
that the address refers to in DW_OP_deref_size. I can't think
of a way to infer the type at that point in the code.
Before proceeding, I should note that there are two other DWARF
operations that could be used in place of DW_OP_deref_size. One of
these is DW_OP_GNU_deref_type. Current GDB implements this operation,
but as is obvious from the name, it is non-standard DWARF. The other
operation is DW_OP_xderef_size. Even though it's part of DWARF-2
through DWARF-4 specifications, it's not presently implemented in GDB.
Present day GCC does not output dwarf expressions containing this
operation either. [Of the two, I like DW_OP_GNU_deref_type better.
Using it avoids the need to specify an "address space identifier".
(GCC, GDB, and other non-free tools all need to agree on the meanings
of these identifiers.)]
Back to the bug analysis...
The closest consumer of the DW_OP_deref_size result is the
DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY case in dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full. At that
location, we do know the object type to which the address is intended
to refer. I added code to perform a pointer to address conversion at
this location. (See the patch.)
I do have some misgivings regarding this patch. As noted earlier, it
would really be better to perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. I can't, however, think of a way to make this work.
Changing GCC to output one of the other aforementioned operations might
be preferable but, as noted earlier, these solutions have problems as
well. Long term, I think it'd be good to have something like
DW_OP_GNU_deref_type become part of the standard. If that can't or
won't happen, we'll need to implement DW_OP_xderef_size.
But until that happens, this patch will work for expressions in which
DW_OP_deref_size occurs last. It should even work for dereferences
followed by adding an offset. I don't think it'll work for more than
one dereference in the same expression.

When `info float` is used on an AMD64 system, GDB prints
floating-point values of x87 registers with raw contents like
0x361a867a8e0527397ce0 or 0xc4f988454a1ddd3cfdab wrongly.
This happens due to truncation to double, after which the former
becomes 0.0, and the latter becomes negative infinity. This is caused
by failed detection of x86-64 host, which results in setting
gdb_host_{float,double,long_double}_format to zeros.
This commit fixes this misdetection, and adds a test to make sure
future commits don't introduce a regression here.

In commit 6085d6f6, Z0 packet is disabled in aarch64 GDBserver if
the inferior is 32-bit or there may be multiple inferiors, because
Z0 packet isn't supported for arm then. Recently, Z0 packet
is supported in arm target, so we don't have such limitation in
aarch64 GDBserver, that is to say, aarch64 GDBserver can use Z0
packet in multi-arch/multi-inferior debugging when the inferior's
arch is arm.
Part of this patch is to revert 6085d6f6, and the rest of the patch
is to move some breakpoint related arm_* functions into

So far, trying to evaluate an expression involving a function call for
which GDB could find multiple function candidates outputs a menu so that
the user can select the one to run. For instance, with the two
following functions:
type New_Integer is new Integer;
function F (I : Integer) return Boolean;
function F (I : New_Integer) return Boolean;
Then we get the following GDB session:
(gdb) print f(1)
Multiple matches for f
[0] cancel
[1] foo.f at foo.adb:23
[2] foo.f at foo.adb.28
>
While the source location information is sufficient in order to
determine which one to select, one has to look for them in source files,
which is not convenient.
This commit tunes this menu in order to also include the list of formal
and return types (if any) in each entry. The above then becomes:
(gdb) print f(1)
Multiple matches for f
[0] cancel
[1] foo.f (integer) return boolean at foo.adb:23
[2] foo.f (foo.new_integer) return boolean at foo.adb.28

This patch removes support for thread events if PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE is not
supported in GDBServer.
Before, on systems that did not support PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE, both GDB and
GDBServer coordinated with libthread_db.so to insert breakpoints at magic
locations in libpthread.so, in order to break at thread creation and thread
death.
Simple software single stepping support was implemented to step over these
breakpoints in case there was no hardware single stepping support. However,
these simple software single stepping implementations were not fit for any other
use as discussed in :
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-04/msg01110.html
These too simple implementations conflict with ongoing work to make proper
implementations of software single stepping in GDBServer.
The problem is that if some implementations are correct and others are not and
only there for the thread magic breakpoint, we can't enable features based
solely software single step support since some would be broken.
To keep the incorrect implementations and allow the new proper ones at the same
time we would need to implement fallback code and it quickly becomes ugly and
confusing with multiple checks for legacy software single step or proper
software single step.
However, PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE was first introduced in Linux 2.5.46,
released in November 2002.
So I think it's reasonable to just remove support for kernels that don't support
PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE, and sidestep the libthread_db breakpoints issues entirely.
This thread on the mailling list discusses the issue :

Before this patch there was only one call: can_hardware_single_step. Its
implementation was a check on breakpoint_reinsert_addr if NULL it assumed
that the target could hardware single step.
This patch prepares for the case where this is not true anymore.
In order to improve software single stepping in GDBServer the
breakpoint_reinsert_addr operation of targets that had a very simple
software implementation used only for stepping over thread creation events
will be removed.
This will create a case where a target does not support hardware single
step and has the operation breakpoint_reinsert_addr set to NULL, thus
can_hardware_single_step needs to be implemented another way.
A new target operation supports_hardware_single_step is introduced and is
to return true if the target does support such a feature, support for the
feature is manually hardcoded.
Note that the hardware single step support was enabled as per the current
behavior, I did not check if tile for example really has ptrace singlestep
support but since the current implementation assumed it had, I kept it

Without this patch, when doing a software single step, with for example
a conditional breakpoint, gdbserver would wrongly avance the pc of
breakpoint_len and skips an instruction.
This is due to gdbserver assuming that it's hardware single stepping.
When it resumes from the breakpoint address it expects the trap to be
caused by ptrace and if it's rather caused by a software breakpoint
it assumes this is a permanent breakpoint and that it needs to skip
over it.
However when software single stepping, this breakpoint is legitimate as
it's the reinsert breakpoint gdbserver has put in place to break at
the next instruction. Thus gdbserver wrongly advances the pc and skips
an instruction.
This patch fixes this behavior so that gdbserver checks if it is a
reinsert breakpoint from software single stepping. If it is it won't
advance the pc. And if there's no reinsert breakpoint there we assume
then that it's a permanent breakpoint and advance the pc.
Here's a commented log of what would happen before and after the fix on
gdbserver :
/* Here there is a conditional breakpoint at 0x10428 that needs to be
stepped over. */
Need step over [LWP 11204]? yes, found breakpoint at 0x10428
...
/* e7f001f0 is a breakpoint instruction on arm
Here gdbserver writes the software breakpoint we would like to hit
*/
Writing e7f001f0 to 0x0001042c in process 11204
...
Resuming lwp 11220 (continue, signal 0, stop not expected)
pending reinsert at 0x10428
stop pc is 00010428
continue from pc 0x10428
...
/* Here gdbserver hit the software breakpoint that was in place
for the step over */
stop pc is 0001042c
pc is 0x1042c

Finished step over.
Could not find fast tracepoint jump at 0x10428 in list (reinserting).
/* Here gdbserver writes back the original instruction */
Writing e50b3008 to 0x0001042c in process 11220
Step-over finished.
Need step over [LWP 11220]? No
/* Here because gdbserver assumes this is a permenant breakpoint it advances
the pc of breakpoint_len, in this case 4 bytes, so we have just skipped
the instruction that was written back here :

*/
stop pc is 00010430
pc is 0x10430
Need step over [LWP 11220]? No, no breakpoint found at 0x10430
Proceeding, no step-over needed
proceed_one_lwp: lwp 11220
stop pc is 00010430
This patch fixes this situation and we get the right behavior :
Writing e50b3008 to 0x0001042c in process 11245
Hit a gdbserver breakpoint.
Hit a gdbserver breakpoint.
Step-over finished.
proceeding all threads.
Need step over [LWP 11245]? No
stop pc is 0001042c
pc is 0x1042c
Need step over [LWP 11245]? No, no breakpoint found at 0x1042c
Proceeding, no step-over needed
proceed_one_lwp: lwp 11245
stop pc is 0001042c
pc is 0x1042c
Resuming lwp 11245 (continue, signal 0, stop not expected)
stop pc is 0001042c
continue from pc 0x1042c
It also works if the value at 0x0001042c is a permanent breakpoint.
If so gdbserver will finish the step over, remove the reinserted breakpoint,
resume at that location and on the next SIGTRAP gdbserver will trigger
the advance PC condition as reinsert_breakpoint_inserted_here will be false.
I also tested this against bp-permanent.exp on arm (with a work in progress
software single step patchset) without any regressions.
It's also tested against x86 bp-permanent.exp without any regression.
So both software and hardware single step are tested.

When manually stepping over a permanent breakpoint on ARM we need to fetch the
right breakpoint size based on the current instruction set used.
Since this is not encoded in the stop_pc, the instruction mode needs to be
fetched from the CPSR register.
This is done by introducing a new target operation called :
breakpoint_kind_from_current_state.
For other targets that do not need this, breakpoint_kind_from_pc is used.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: iter 1: continue until exit
Notice the "Packet received: W0;process:2b51" followed by
vStopped->OK.
That means the process exit notification was successfully sent to GDB
and GDB fetched it. That makes gdbserver exit, in
server.c:process_serial_event:
if (!extended_protocol && have_ran && !target_running ())
{
/* In non-stop, defer exiting until GDB had a chance to query
the whole vStopped list (until it gets an OK). */
if (QUEUE_is_empty (notif_event_p, notif_stop.queue))
{
/* Be transparent when GDB is connected through stdio -- no
need to spam GDB's console. */
if (!remote_connection_is_stdio ())
fprintf (stderr, "GDBserver exiting\n");
remote_close ();
exit (0);
}
}
However, GDB is still busy processing an earlier "no-resumed" event,
and sends a "Hg" packet, which errors out with "Remote connection
closed". IOW, it's not enough to wait for GDB to query the whole
vStopped list, gdbserver needs to wait until the exit event is really
processed.
The fix is to make gdbserver not disconnect until gdb does.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora, native gdbserver, remote + extended-remote +
with and without "maint set target-non-stop on".
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

* remote-utils.c (readchar): Don't print "Got EOF" unless
debugging gdbserver.
* server.c (captured_main): Exit gdbserver if gdb disconnects when
in "target remote" mode and there are no processes left to debug.
(process_serial_event): Remove 'have_ran' static local and remove
logic that exits gdbserver in "target remote" mode.
Running killed-outside.exp in with "maint set target-non-stop on"
hangs currently. This test has the inferior process die with a
SIGKILL while stopped. gdbserver gets a SIGCHLD and reacts by
retrieveing the SIGKILL events out of waitpid. But because the
process is not resumed from GDB's perspective, the event is left
pending. When GDB resumes the process afterwards, the process is not
really resumed because it already has the event pending. But nothing
wakes up the event loop to consume the event.
Handle this in the same way nat/linux-nat.c:linux_nat_resume handles
this.

2015-11-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (linux_resume): Wake up the event loop before
returning.
Say GDB wants to access the inferior process's memory. The current
remote general thread is 3, but GDB's switched to thread 2. Because
both threads are of the same process, GDB skips making the remote
thread be thread 2 as well (sending an Hg packet) before accessing
memory (remote.c:set_general_process). However, if thread 3 has
exited meanwhile, thread 3 no longer exists on the server and
gdbserver points current_thread to NULL. The result is the memory
access fails, even through the process still exists.
Fix this by making prepare_to_access memory select the thread to
access memory through.

Testing with "maint set target-non-stop on" causes regressions in
tests that rely on TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, which isn't modelled on
the RSP. In real all-stop, gdbserver detects the situation and
reporst error to GDB, and so the tests (e.g.,
gdb.threads/no-unwaited-for-left.exp) at fail quickly. But with
"maint set target-non-stop on", GDB instead hangs forever waiting for
a stop reply that never comes, and so the tests take longer to time
out.
This adds a new "N" stop reply packet that maps 1-1 to
TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.

When testing with "maint set target-non-stop on", a few
threading-related tests expose an issue that requires new RSP packets.
Say there are 3 threads running, 1-3. If GDB tries to stop thread 1,
2 and 3, and then waits for their stops, but meanwhile say, thread 2
exits, GDB hangs forever waiting for a stop for thread 2 that won't
ever happen.
This patch fixes the issue by adding support for thread exit events to
the protocol. However, we don't want these always enabled, as they're
useless most of the time, and would slow down remote debugging. So I
made it so that GDB can enable/disable them, and then made gdb do that
around the cases that need it, which currently is only
infrun.c:stop_all_threads.
In turn, if we have thread exit events, then the extra "thread x
exited" traffic slows down attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp enough
that gdb has trouble keeping up with new threads that are spawned
while gdb tries to stop existing ones. To fix that I added support
for the counterpart thread created events too. Enabling those when we
try to stop threads ensures that new threads never get a chance to
themselves start new threads, killing the race.

Testing with the extended-remote board with "maint set target-non-stop

the test is expecting output that is only valid for the native target:

[process 8676] #1 stopped.
remote:
[Thread 8900.8900] #1 stopped.
In order to expose this without "maint set target-non-stop on", this

With "maint set target-non-stop on", the attach tests occasionally
crash gdbserver.
Basically, gdb attaches with vAttach;PID, and then shortly after reads
the xml target description for that process, to figure out the
process' architecture. On the gdbserver side, the target description
is only filled in when the first process/thread in the thread group
reports its initial PTRACE_ATTACH SIGSTOP. So if GDB is fast enough,
it can read the target description _before_ that initial stop, and
then gdbserver dies dereferencing a NULL tdesc pointer.

* linux-low.c (linux_attach): In non-stop mode, wait for one stop
before returning.
There's currently no non-stop equivalent of the all-stop ^C (\003)
"packet" that GDB sends when a ctrl-c is pressed while a foreground
command is active. There's vCont;t, but that's defined to cause a
"signal 0" stop.
This fixes many tests that type ^C, when testing with extended-remote
with "maint set target-non-stop on". E.g.:
Continuing.

* server.c (handle_v_requests): Handle vCtrlC.
Running local-watch-wrong-thread.exp with "maint set target-non-stop
on" exposes that gdb/remote.c only records whether the target stopped
for a breakpoint/watchpoint plus the watchpoint data address *for the
last reported remote event*. But in non-stop mode, we need to keep
that info per-thread, as each thread can end up with its own
last-status pending.

This fixes a gdbserver crash when running
gdb.threads/non-ldr-exc-1.exp with "maint set target-non-stop on".
The problem is that qSymbol is called when gdbserver has
current_thread == NULL.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:

* gdbthread.h (find_any_thread_of_pid): Declare.

functions.
* server.c (handle_query): If current_thread is NULL, look for
another thread of the selected process.
When running with "maint set target-non-stop on", and in all-stop
mode, nothing is stopping all threads after attaching. vAttach in
non-stop can leave all threads running and GDB has to explicitly pause
them.
This is not visible with the native target, as in that case, attach
always stops all threads (the core re-resumes them in case of
"attach&").
In addition, it's not defined which thread manages to report the
initial attach stop, so always pick the lowest one (otherwise
multi-attach.exp regresses).
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-11-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* infcmd.c (attach_post_wait): If the target is always in non-stop
mode, and the UI is in all-stop mode, stop all threads and pick
the one with lowest number as current.
This is the first pass at implementing support for all-stop mode
running against the remote target using the non-stop variant of the
protocol.
The trickiest part here is the initial connection setup/synching. We
need to fetch all inferiors' target descriptions etc. before stopping
threads, because stop_all_threads needs to read the threads' registers
(to record each thread's stop_pc). But OTOH, the initial inferior
setup (target_post_attach, post_create_inferior, etc.), only works
correctly if the inferior is stopped... So I've split that initial
setup part from attach_command_post_wait to a separate function, and
added a "still needs setup" flag to the inferior structure. This is
similar to gdbserver/linux-low.c's handling of discovering the
process's target description). Then if on connection all threads of
the remote inferior are running, when we go about stopping them, as
soon as they stop we call setup_inferior, from within
stop_all_threads.
Also, in all-stop, we need to process all the initial stop replies to
learn about all the pending signal the threads may already be stopped
for, and pick the one to report as current. This is exposed by
gdb.threads/reconnect-signal.exp.

Testing with "maint set target-non-stop on" makes mi-nonstop.exp run
with the extended-remote board. That reveals that mi-nonstop.exp is
using the wrong predicate to check for "using remote protocol".
This is not visible today because non-stop tests all fail to run with
extended-remote board, because they spawn gdb and then do "set
non-stop on". However, with that board, gdb connects to the gdbserver
from within mi_gdb_start, and changing non-stop when already connected
doesn't work. Fix that by instead enabling non-stop mode on gdb's
command line.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2015-11-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.mi/mi-nonstop.exp: Append "set non-stop on" to GDBFLAGS

After the fork, GDB will physically remove the breakpoints from the child
process (in frame #14), but at that time, GDB doesn't create an inferior
yet for child, but inferior_ptid is set to child's ptid (in frame #13).
In aarch64_point_is_aligned, we'll get the regcache of current_lwp_ptid
to determine if the current process is 32-bit or 64-bit, so the inferior
can't be found, and the internal error is caused.
I don't find a better fix other than not checking alignment on removing
breakpoint.
gdb:

* nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c (aarch64_dr_state_remove_one_point):
Don't assert on alignment.
(aarch64_handle_breakpoint): Only check alignment when IS_INSERT
is true.
Both ARM and AArch64 have defined some SIMD data types in arm_neon.h,
but we don't have a test case for passing them and returning them in
inferior call. This test also covers passing and returning
homogeneous short vector aggregate (defined by AArch64 ABI document)
in inferior call too.
gdb/testsuite:
* gdb.arch/arm-neon.exp: New.
* gdb.arch/arm-neon.c: New.
AArch64 AAPCS defined HFA (homogeneous floating-point aggregate)
and HVF (homogeneous short vector aggregate), bug GDB only handles the
former. In the AAPCS doc, both types are treated exactly the same
in terms of alignment and passing locations (on registers or stack).
This patch is to extend is_hfa to handle both HFA and HVA.

(aarch64_store_return_value): Likewise.
(aarch64_return_in_memory): Update comments.
As defined in AArch64 AAPCS, short vectors are passed through V
registers, and its maximum alignment is 16-byte. This patch is
to reflect these rules in GDB. This patch fixes some fails in
gdb.base/gnu_vector.exp.

Hi,
I see one fail on aarch64-linux testing,
FAIL: gdb.cp/annota2.exp: watch triggered on a.x (timeout)
because GDB prints two frames-invalid annotation but the test expects
only one.

Note I also see the fail on Debian-s390x-m64 too.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2015-q4/msg07291.html
The test shouldn't only expect one frames-invalid annotation, because
there can be multiple times of stop/resume before the user visible
stop. Ulrich did something similar before
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-06/msg00118.html
This patch only changes ${frames_invalid} to \(${frames_invalid}\)*
in the regexp pattern.
The patch below fixes the fail on aarch64-linux.
gdb/testsuite:
2015-11-27 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.cp/annota2.exp: Allow multiple occurrences of the
frames-invalid annotation.
Variable frames_invalid was defined, but wasn't used much. This patch
is to replace the literals in the regexp with ${frames_invalid}.
gdb/testsuite:
2015-11-27 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.cp/annota2.exp: Use ${frames_invalid}.
I couldn't find a test that verified the thread name functionality, so I
created a new one.
A target board can define gdb,no_thread_names if it doesn't support thread
names and wants to skip the tests that uses them.
This test has been made with Linux in mind. Not all platforms use
pthread_setname_np to set the thread name, but some #ifdefs can be added
later in order to support other platforms.
Tested on x86-64 Ubuntu 14.04, native and remote.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.threads/names.exp: New file.
* gdb.threads/names.c: New file.
* README: Mention gdb,no_thread_names.
This patch adds support for thread names in the remote protocol, and
updates gdb/gdbserver to use it. The information is added to the XML

Since this code path returns a string owned by the target (we don't know how
it's allocated, could be a static read-only string), it's safer if we return
a constant string. If, for some reasons, the caller wishes to modify the
string, it should make itself a copy.

(mi_check_thread_states): No longer reverse list.
... like the kernel does.
gcore-thread.exp has a check to make sure the signalled thread is the
current thread after loading the core back, but that just works by
accident, because the signalled thread happened to be the last thread
on the thread list, and gdb currently iterates over threads in reverse
order.
So this fixes gcore-thread.exp once we start walking threads in
ascending number.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-11-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-tdep.c (find_stop_signal): Delete.
(struct linux_corefile_thread_data) <pid>: Remove field.
(linux_corefile_thread_callback): Rename to ...
(linux_corefile_thread): ... this. Now takes a struct
linux_corefile_thread_data pointer rather than a void pointer.
Remove thread state and thread pid checks.
(linux_make_corefile_notes): Prefer dumping the signalled thread
first. Use ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS instead of
iterate_over_threads.
