0a93529c56 Implement remote_bfd_iovec_stat
This commit adds a new packet "vFile:fstat:" to the remote protocol
that can be used by to retrieve information about files that have
been previously opened using vFile:open.  vFile:fstat: support is
added to GDB, and remote_bfd_iovec_stat is implemented using it.  If
vFile:fstat: is not supported by the remote GDB creates a dummy result
by zeroing the supplied stat structure and setting its st_size field
to INT_MAX.  This mimics GDB's previous behaviour, with the exception
that GDB did not previously zero the structure so all other fields
would have been returned unchanged, which is to say very likely
populated with random values from the stack.

f7e6eed528 remote+docs: software/hardware breakpoint traps
This adjusts target remote to tell the core whether a trap was caused
by a breakpoint.

To that end, the patch teaches GDB about new RSP stop reasons "T05
swbreak" and "T05 hwbreak", that remote targets report back to GDB,
similarly to how "T05 watch" indicates a stop caused by a watchpoint.

Because targets that can report these events are expected to
themselves adjust the PC after a software breakpoint, these new stop
reasons must only be reported if the stub is talking to a GDB that
understands them.  Because of that, the use of the new stop reasons
needs to be handshaked on initial connection, using the qSupported
mechanism.  GDB simply sends "swbreak+" in its qSupports query, and
the stub reports back "swbreak+" too.

Because these new stop reasons are required to fix a fundamental
non-stop mode problem, this commit extends the remote non-stop intro
section in the manual, documenting the events as required.

To be clear, GDB will still cope with remote targets that don't
support these new stop reasons; it will behave just like today.

Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

53cf2ee0d9 [gdb/ax] small "setv" fix and documentation's adjustment.
gdb/doc/agentexpr.texi documents the "setv" opcode as follow:

    @item @code{setv} (0x2d) @var{n}: @result{} @var{v}
    Set trace state variable number @var{n} to the value found on the top
    of the stack.  The stack is unchanged, so that the value is readily
    available if the assignment is part of a larger expression.  The
    handling of @var{n} is as described for @code{getv}.

The @item line is incorrect (and does not match with its
description), so this patch fixes it.

Additionally, in gdb/common/ax.def we find the line:

    DEFOP (setv, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0x2d)

From the comment earlier in the file:

       Each line is of the form:

       DEFOP (name, size, data_size, consumed, produced, opcode)
[...]
       CONSUMED is the number of stack elements consumed.
       PRODUCED is the number of stack elements produced.

which is saying that nothing is consumed and one item is produced.
Both should be 0 or both should be 1.

This patch sets them both to 1, which seems better since if nothing
is on the stack an error will occur.

gdb/ChangeLog:

        * common/ax.def (setv): Fix consumed entry in setv DEFOP.

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:

        * agentexpr.texi (Bytecode Descriptions): Fix summary line for setv.

9aca2ff83e New commands enable probe' and disable probe'.
This patch adds the above-mentioned commands to the generic probe
abstraction implemented in probe.[ch].  The effects associated to
enabling or disabling a probe depend on the type of probe being
handled, and is triggered by invoking two back-end hooks in
`probe_ops'.

In case some particular probe type does not support the notion of
enabling and/or disabling, the corresponding fields on `probe_ops' can
be initialized to NULL.  This is the case of SystemTap probes.

d33501a51f record-btrace: add bts buffer size configuration option
Allow the size of the branch trace ring buffer to be defined by the
user.  The specified buffer size will be used when BTS tracing is
enabled for new threads.

The obtained buffer size may differ from the requested size.  The
actual buffer size for the current thread is shown in the "info record"
command.

Bigger buffers mean longer traces, but also longer processing time.

f4abbc1682 record btrace: add configuration struct
Add a struct to describe the branch trace configuration and use it for
enabling branch tracing.

The user will be able to set configuration fields for each tracing format
to be used for new threads.

The actual configuration that is active for a given thread will be shown
in the "info record" command.

At the moment, the configuration struct only contains a format field
that is set to the only available format.

The format is the only configuration option that can not be set via set
commands.  It is given as argument to the "record btrace" command when
starting recording.

253828f102 Sort threads for thread apply all
downstream Fedora request:
	Please make it easier to find the backtrace of the crashing thread
	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1024504

Currently after loading a core file GDB prints:

Core was generated by `./threadcrash1'.
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
8       *(volatile int *)0=0;
(gdb) _

there is nowhere seen which of the threads had crashed.  In reality GDB always
numbers that thread as #1 and it is the current thread that time.  But after
dumping all the info into a file for later analysis it is no longer obvious.
'thread apply all bt' even puts the thread #1 to the _end_ of the output!!!

I find maybe as good enough and with no risk of UI change flamewar to just
sort the threads by their number.  Currently they are printed as they happen
in the internal GDB list which has no advantage.  Printing thread #1 as the
first one with assumed 'thread apply all bt' (after the core file is loaded)
should make the complaint resolved I guess.

On Thu, 15 Jan 2015 20:29:07 +0100, Doug Evans wrote:
No objection to sorting the list, but if thread #1 is the important one,
then a concern could be it'll have scrolled off the screen (such a
concern has been voiced in another thread in another context),
and if not lost (say it's in an emacs buffer) one would still have
to scroll back to see it.
So one *could* still want #1 to be last.
Do we want an option to choose the sort direction?

6a3ca06752 Temporarily revert symbol lookup cache.
clear_symtab_users calls breakpoint_re_set before
observer_notify_new_objfile(NULL), and thus symbol lookup
done during breakpoint_re_set will see a stale cache.

Presumably we just need to move the call to observer_notify_new_objfile(NULL)
to before breakpoint_re_set, but need to check for other such issues,
and 7.9 is scheduled to branch tomorrow.

bb2ec1b34e the "compile" command
This final patch adds the new "compile" command and subcommands, and
all the machinery needed to make it work.

A shared library supplied by gcc is used for all communications with
gcc.  Types and most aspects of symbols are provided directly by gdb
to the compiler using this library.

gdb provides some information about the user's code using plain text.
Macros are emitted this way, and DWARF location expressions (and
bounds for VLA) are compiled to C code.

This hybrid approach was taken because, on the one hand, it is better
to provide global declarations and such on demand; but on the other
hand, for local variables, translating DWARF location expressions to C
was much simpler than exporting a full compiler API to gdb -- the same
result, only easier to implement, understand, and debug.

In the ordinary mode, the user's expression is wrapped in a dummy
function.  After compilation, gdb inserts the resulting object code
into the inferior, then calls this function.

Access to local variables is provided by noting which registers are
used by location expressions, and passing a structure of register
values into the function.  Writes to registers are supported by
copying out these values after the function returns.

This approach was taken so that we could eventually implement other
more interesting features based on this same infrastructure; for
example, we're planning to investigate inferior-side breakpoint
conditions.

f10c5b19e0 Add add-auto-load-scripts-directory.
There is already "add-auto-load-safe-path" which works
like "set auto-load safe-path" but in append mode.

There was missing an append equivalent for "set auto-load scripts-directory".

ABRT has directory /var/cache/abrt-di/ as an alternative one
to /usr/lib/debug/ . Therefore ABRT needs to use -iex parameters to add this
/var/cache/abrt-di/ directory as a first-class debuginfo directory.
Using absolute "set auto-load scripts-directory" would hard-code the path
possibly overriding local system directory additions; besides it would not be
nice anyway.

e5f8a7cc2d stepi/nexti: skip signal handler if "handle nostop" signal arrives
I noticed that "si" behaves differently when a "handle nostop" signal
arrives while the step is in progress, depending on whether the
program was stopped at a breakpoint when "si" was entered.
Specifically, in case GDB needs to step off a breakpoint, the handler
is skipped and the program stops in the next "mainline" instruction.
Otherwise, the "si" stops in the first instruction of the signal
handler.

I was surprised the testsuite doesn't catch this difference.  Turns
out gdb.base/sigstep.exp covers a bunch of cases related to stepping
and signal handlers, but does not test stepi nor nexti, only
step/next/continue.

My first reaction was that stopping in the signal handler was the
correct thing to do, as it's where the next user-visible instruction
that is executed is.  I considered then "nexti" -- a signal handler
could be reasonably considered a subroutine call to step over, it'd
seem intuitive to me that "nexti" would skip it.

But then, I realized that signals that arrive while a plain/line
"step" is in progress _also_ have their handler skipped.  A user might
well be excused for being confused by this, given:

  (gdb) help step
  Step program until it reaches a different source line.

And the signal handler's sources will be in different source lines,
after all.

I think that having to explain that "stepi" steps into handlers, (and
that "nexti" wouldn't according to my reasoning above), while "step"
does not, is a sign of an awkward interface.

E.g., if a user truly is interested in stepping into signal handlers,
then it's odd that she has to either force the signal to "handle
stop", or recall to do "stepi" whenever such a signal might be
delivered.  For that use case, it'd seem nicer to me if "step" also
stepped into handlers.

This suggests to me that we either need a global "step-into-handlers"
setting, or perhaps better, make "handle pass/nopass stop/nostop
print/noprint" have have an additional axis - "handle
stepinto/nostepinto", so that the user could configure whether
handlers for specific signals should be stepped into.

In any case, I think it's simpler (and thus better) for all step
commands to behave the same.  This commit thus makes "si/ni" skip
handlers for "handle nostop" signals that arrive while the command was
already in progress, like step/next do.

To be clear, nothing changes if the program was stopped for a signal,
and the user enters a stepping command _then_ -- GDB still steps into
the handler.  The change concerns signals that don't cause a stop and
that arrive while the step is in progress.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver.

fab3a15dfb Small fixes to the Python API doc
First:
"Breakpoint.delete" is missing parenthesis.

Second:
Someone on IRC asked, how come there is no disable() method in the
Breakpoint object.  It turns out you have to do "bp.enabled = False".
Since every normal person would probably search for "disable" in that page
if their intent is to disable a python breakpoint, I thought it would be
useful if the description contained "disable" so it would be easy to find.
The result might seem a bit silly and redundant, so I am open to
suggestions.

	* python.texi (Breakpoints In Python): Add parenthesis after
	Breakpoint.delete.  Clarify Breakpoint.enabled description so
	that it	contains "disable".

32a8097ba5 Delete Tru64 support
This commit does most of the mechanical removal.  IOW, the easy part.

procfs.c isn't touched beyond removing a couple obvious bits that are
guarded by a couple macros defined in config/alpha/nm-osf3.h.  Going
beyond that for procfs.c & co would be a harder excision that
potentially affects Solaris.

Some comments in the generic alpha code ABIs that may still be
relevant and I wouldn't know what to do with them.  That can always be
done on a separate pass, preferably by someone who can test on alpha.

A couple other spots have references to OSF/Tru64 and related files
being removed, but it felt like removing them would make things worse,
not better.  We can revisit those when we next need to touch that
code.

I didn't remove a reference to osf in testsuite/lib/future.exp, as I
believe that code is imported from DejaGNU.

Built and tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with --enable-targets=all.

Tested that building for --target=alpha-osf3 on x86_64 Fedora 20
fails with:

a25a5a45ef Fix "breakpoint always-inserted off"; remove "breakpoint always-inserted auto"
By default, GDB removes all breakpoints from the target when the
target stops and the prompt is given back to the user.  This is useful
in case GDB crashes while the user is interacting, as otherwise,
there's a higher chance breakpoints would be left planted on the
target.

But, as long as any thread is running free, we need to make sure to
keep breakpoints inserted, lest a thread misses a breakpoint.  With
that in mind, in preparation for non-stop mode, we added a "breakpoint
always-inserted on" mode.  This traded off the extra crash protection
for never having threads miss breakpoints, and in addition is more
efficient if there's a ton of breakpoints to remove/insert at each
user command (e.g., at each "step").

When we added non-stop mode, and for a period, we required users to
manually set "always-inserted on" when they enabled non-stop mode, as
otherwise GDB removes all breakpoints from the target as soon as any
thread stops, which means the other threads still running will miss
breakpoints.  The test added by this patch exercises this.

That soon revealed a nuisance, and so later we added an extra
"breakpoint always-inserted auto" mode, that made GDB behave like
"always-inserted on" when non-stop was enabled, and "always-inserted
off" when non-stop was disabled.  "auto" was made the default at the
same time.

In hindsight, this "auto" setting was unnecessary, and not the ideal
solution.  Non-stop mode does depends on breakpoints always-inserted
mode, but only as long as any thread is running.  If no thread is
running, no breakpoint can be missed.  The same is true for all-stop
too.  E.g., if, in all-stop mode, and the user does:

 (gdb) c&
 (gdb) b foo

That breakpoint at "foo" should be inserted immediately, but it
currently isn't -- currently it'll end up inserted only if the target
happens to trip on some event, and is re-resumed, e.g., an internal
breakpoint triggers that doesn't cause a user-visible stop, and so we
end up in keep_going calling insert_breakpoints.  The test added by
this patch also covers this.

IOW, no matter whether in non-stop or all-stop, if the target fully
stops, we can remove breakpoints.  And no matter whether in all-stop
or non-stop, if any thread is running in the target, then we need
breakpoints to be immediately inserted.  And then, if the target has
global breakpoints, we need to keep breakpoints even when the target
is stopped.

So with that in mind, and aiming at reducing all-stop vs non-stop
differences for all-stop-on-stop-of-non-stop, this patch fixes
"breakpoint always-inserted off" to not remove breakpoints from the
target until it fully stops, and then removes the "auto" setting as
unnecessary.  I propose removing it straight away rather than keeping
it as an alias, unless someone complains they have scripts that need
it and that can't adjust.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

81219e5358 New command queue-signal.
If I want to change the signalled state of multiple threads
it's a bit cumbersome to do with the "signal" command.
What you really want is a way to set the signal state of the
desired threads and then just do "continue".

This patch adds a new command, queue-signal, to accomplish this.
Basically "signal N" == "queue-signal N" + "continue".
That's not precisely true in that "signal" can be used to inject
any signal, including signals set to "nopass"; whereas "queue-signal"
just queues the signal as if the thread stopped because of it.
"nopass" handling is done when the thread is resumed which
"queue-signal" doesn't do.

One could add extra complexity to allow queue-signal to be used to
deliver "nopass" signals like the "signal" command.  I have no current
need for it so in the interests of incremental complexity, I have
left such support out and just have the code flag an error if one
tries to queue a nopass signal.
