This commit adds a new maintenance command that dumps the current
target description as an XML document. This is a maintenance command
as I currently only see this being useful for GDB developers, or for
people debugging a new remote target.
By default the command will print whatever the current target
description is, whether this was delivered by the remote, loaded by
the user from a file, or if it is a built in target within GDB.
The command can also take an optional filename argument. In this case
GDB loads a target description from the file, and then reprints it.
This could be useful for testing GDB's parsing of target descriptions,
or to check that GDB can successfully parse a particular XML
description.
It is worth noting that the XML description printed will not be an
exact copy of the document fed into GDB. For example this minimal
input file:
<target>
<feature name="abc">
<reg name="r1" bitsize="32"/>
</feature>
</target>
Will produce this output:
(gdb) maint print xml-tdesc path/to/file.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE target SYSTEM "gdb-target.dtd">
<target>
<feature name="abc">
<reg name="r1" bitsize="32" type="int" regnum="0"/>
</feature>
</target>
Notice that GDB filled in both the 'type' and 'regnum' fields of the
<reg>. I think this is actually a positive as it means we get to
really understand how GDB processed the document, if GDB made some
assumptions that differ to those the user expected then hopefully this
will bring those issues to the users attention.
To implement this I have tweaked the output produced by the
print_xml_feature which is defined within the gdbsupport/ directory.
The changes I have made to this class are:
1. The <architecture>...</architecture> tags are now not produced if
the architecture name is NULL.
2. The <osabi>...</osabi> tags get a newline at the end.
3. And, the whole XML document is indented using white space in a
nested fashion (as in the example output above).
I think that these changes should be fine, the print_xml_feature class
is used:
1. In gdbserver to generate an XML document to send as the target
description to GDB.
2. In GDB as part of a self-check function, a target_desc is
converted to XML then parsed back into a target_desc. We then check
the before and after target_desc objects are the same.
3. In the new 'maint print xml-tdesc' command.
In all of these use cases adding the extra white space should be fine.

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:

The gdbsupport directory contains a helper class print_xml_feature
that is shared between gdb and gdbserver. This class is used for
printing an XML representation of a target_desc object.
Currently this class doesn't have the ability to print the
<compatible> entities that can appear within a target description, I
guess no targets have needed that functionality yet.
The print_xml_feature classes API is based around operating on the
target_desc class, however, the sharing between gdb and gdbserver is
purely textural, we rely on their being a class called target_desc in
both gdb and gdbserver, but there is no shared implementation. We
then have a set of functions declared that operate on an object of
type target_desc, and again these functions have completely separate
implementations.
Currently then the gdb version of target_desc contains a vector of
bfd_arch_info pointers which represents the compatible entries from a
target description. The gdbserver version of target_desc has no such
information. Further, the gdbserver code doesn't seem to include the
bfd headers, and so doesn't know about the bfd types.
I was reluctant to include the bfd headers into gdbserver just so I
can reference the compatible information, which isn't (currently) even
needed in gdbserver.
So, the approach I take in this patch is to wrap the compatible
information into a new helper class. This class is declared in the
gdbsupport library, but implemented separately in both gdb and
gdbserver.
In gdbserver the class is empty. The compatible information within
the gdbserver is an empty list, of empty classes.
In gdb the class contains a pointer to the bfd_arch_info object.
With this in place we can now add support to print_xml_feature for
printing the compatible information if it is present. In the
gdbserver code this will never happen, as the gdbserver never has any
compatible information. But in gdb, this code will trigger when
appropriate.

The maintenance command 'maintenance print c-tdesc' can only print the
target description if it was loaded from a local file, or if the local
filename is passed to the maintenance command as an argument.
Sometimes it would be nice to know what target description GDB was
given by the remote, however, if I connect to a remote target and try
this command I see this:
(gdb) maintenance print c-tdesc
The current target description did not come from an XML file.
(gdb)
Which is not very helpful.
This commit changes things so that if the description came from the
remote end then GDB will use a fake filename 'fetched from target' as
the filename for the description, GDB will then create the C
description of the target as though it came from this file. Example
output would look like this (I snipped the feature creation from the
middle as that hasn't changed):
(gdb) maintenance print c-tdesc
/* THIS FILE IS GENERATED. -*- buffer-read-only: t -*- vi:set ro:
Original: fetched from target */
#include "defs.h"
#include "osabi.h"
#include "target-descriptions.h"
struct target_desc *tdesc_fetched_from_target;
static void
initialize_tdesc_fetched_from_target (void)
{
struct target_desc *result = allocate_target_description ();
struct tdesc_feature *feature;
/* ... features created here ... */
tdesc_fetched_from_target = result;
}
(gdb)
In order to support using 'fetched from target' I had to update the
print_c_tdesc code to handle filenames that include a space. This has
the benefit that we can now print out real files with spaces in the
name, for example the file 'with space.xml':
(gdb) maint print c-tdesc with space.xml
I originally added this functionality so I could inspect the
description passed to GDB by the remote target. After using this for
a while I realised that actually having GDB recreate the XML would be
even better, so a later commit will add that functionality too.
Still, given how small this patch is I thought it might be nice to
include this in GDB anyway.
While I was working on this anyway I've added filename command
completion to this command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* target-descriptions.c (print_c_tdesc::print_c_tdesc): Change
whitespace to underscore.
(maint_print_c_tdesc_cmd): Use fake filename for target
descriptions that came from the target.
(_initialize_target_descriptions): Add filename command completion
for 'maint print c-tdesc'.
Add some empty lines at places I forgot in the previous patch.

lines.

I always found that some switch statements in this file were a bit too
packed. I think having empty lines between each case helps with
reading. I'm pushing this as obvious, I hope it won't be too
controversial.

AuthorDate: Thu Jun 18 21:28:37 2020 +0100
Decouple inferior_ptid/inferior_thread(); dup ptids in thread list (PR 25412)
caused a regression for gdb.gdb/unittest.exp when GDB is configured
with --enable-targets=all. The failure is:
gdb/thread.c:95: internal-error: thread_info* inferior_thread(): Assertion `current_thread_ != nullptr' failed.
The problem is in this line in regcache.c:cooked_read_test:
/* Switch to the mock thread. */
scoped_restore restore_inferior_ptid
= make_scoped_restore (&inferior_ptid, mock_ptid);
Both gdbarch-selftest.c and regcache.c set up a similar mock context,
but the series the patch above belongs to only updated the
gdbarch-selftest.c context to not write to inferior_ptid directly, and
missed updating regcache.c's.
Instead of copying the fix over to regcache.c, share the mock context
setup code in a new RAII class, based on gdbarch-selftest.c's version.
Also remove the "target already pushed" error from regcache.c, like it
had been removed from gdbarch-selftest.c in the multi-target series.
That check is unnecessary because each inferior now has its own target
stack, and the unit test pushes a target on a separate (mock)
inferior, not the current inferior on entry.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2020-06-23 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdbarch-selftests.c: Don't include inferior.h, gdbthread.h or
progspace-and-thread.h. Include scoped-mock-context.h instead.
(register_to_value_test): Use scoped_mock_context.
* regcache.c: Include "scoped-mock-context.h".
(cooked_read_test): Don't error out if a target is already pushed.
Use scoped_mock_context. Adjust.
* scoped-mock-context.h: New file.
The history-scrolling commands "+", "-", "<" and ">" are only known to
GDB when TUI is enabled. This means the "complete pipe " command
produces different output depending on whether TUI is present, which
in turn caused
FAIL: gdb.base/shell.exp: cmd complete "pipe "
This patch provides different patterns for that test depending on
whether or not TUI is available.

* lib/completion-support.exp (test_gdb_completion_offers_commands):

be provided.
(gdb) h alias
Define a new command that is an alias of an existing command.
Usage: alias [-a] [--] ALIAS = COMMAND [DEFAULT-ARGS...]
ALIAS is the name of the alias command to create.
COMMAND is the command being aliased to.
Options:
-a
Specify that ALIAS is an abbreviation of COMMAND.
Abbreviations are not used in command completion..
GDB will automatically prepend the provided DEFAULT-ARGS to the list
of arguments explicitly provided when using ALIAS.
Use "help aliases" to list all user defined aliases and their default args.
Examples:
Make "spe" an alias of "set print elements":
alias spe set print elements
Make "elms" an alias of "elements" in the "set print" command:
alias -a set print elms set print elements
Make "btf" an alias of "backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main" :
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Make "wLapPeu" an alias of 2 nested "with":
alias wLapPeu = with language pascal -- with print elements unlimited --
(gdb)
The way 'default-args' is implemented makes it trivial to set default
args also for GDB commands (such as "backtrace") and for GDB pre-defined
aliases (such as "bt"). It was however deemed better to not allow to
define default arguments for pre-defined commands and aliases, to avoid
users believing that e.g. default args for "backtrace" would apply to "bt".
If needed, default-args could be allowed for GDB predefined commands
and aliases by adding a command
'set default-args GDB_COMMAND_OR_PREDEFINED_ALIAS [DEFAULT-ARGS...]'.
* 'alias' command now has a completer that helps to complete:
- ALIAS (if the user defines an alias after a prefix),
- the aliased COMMAND
- the possible options for the aliased COMMAND.
* Help and apropos commands show the definitions of the aliases
that have default arguments, e.g.
(gdb) help backtrace
backtrace, btf, where, bt
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Print backtrace of all stack frames, or innermost COUNT frames.
Usage: backtrace [OPTION]... [QUALIFIER]... [COUNT | -COUNT]
Options:
-entry-values no|only|preferred|if-needed|both|compact|default
Set printing of function arguments at function entry.

One set of tests in this file does a lot of complicated directory
manipulations to force a specific DW_AT_comp_dir format and gdb
directory search path. As it's written, everything assumes host ==
build, and it does not seem to me that there is any obvious way to
rewrite this so it will work in general on remote host. For instance,
our harness for testing on remote Windows host normally does all
compilation and GDB execution in $cwd using relative pathnames and I'm
not sure all these directory tricks would set up the scenario it's
trying to test even if they were correctly performed on host rather
than build. So I think it's reasonable just to disable this on remote
host instead.
I also noted that it's using the wrong search path syntax for Windows
host in the "set directories" command and conditionalized that while I
was looking at it. That's a necessary fix to make this work in a
situation where host == build and it's Windows, but I'm not actually
set up to test that it's sufficient, too.

Debugging on Solaris is broken, with the procfs target backend failing
with:
procfs: couldn't find pid 0 in procinfo list.
as soon as you start a program.
The problem is procfs_target::wait assuming that inferior_ptid is
meaningful on entry, but, since the multi-target series, inferior_ptid
is null_ptid before we call target_wait, in infrun.c:
static ptid_t
do_target_wait_1 (inferior *inf, ptid_t ptid,
target_waitstatus *status, int options)
{
...
/* We know that we are looking for an event in the target of inferior
INF, but we don't know which thread the event might come from. As
such we want to make sure that INFERIOR_PTID is reset so that none of
the wait code relies on it - doing so is always a mistake. */
switch_to_inferior_no_thread (inf);
This patch tweaks the backend to remove the assumption that
inferior_ptid points at something. sol-thread.c (the thread_stratum
that sits on top of procfs.c) also has the same issue.
Some spots in procfs_target::wait were returning
TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS+inferior_ptid. This commit replaces those
with waiting again without returning to the core. This fixes the
relying on inferior_ptid, and also should fix the issue discussed
here:

Looking closer, I found that in add_thread_silent as called from
procfs.c (procfs_target::create_inferior) find_inferior_ptid returns
NULL. The all_inferiors (targ) iterator comes up empty.
Going from there, I see that in add_thread_silent
m_target_stack = {m_top = file_stratum, m_stack = {0x20190e0
<the_dummy_target>, 0x200b8c0 <exec_ops>, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0}}}
i.e. the_procfs_target is missing compared to the_amd64_linux_nat_target
on Linux/x86_64.
Moving the push_target call earlier allows debugging to get over the
initial assertion failure. I run instead into
procfs: couldn't find pid 0 in procinfo list.

Following the implementation of exec-file-mismatch based on build-id,
an attach to a process that runs a modified exec-file was triggering
the exec-file-mismatch handling, giving a warning such as:
warning: Mismatch between current exec-file /bd/home/philippe/gdb/git/build_termours/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/attach/attach
and automatically determined exec-file /bd/home/philippe/gdb/git/build_termours/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/attach/attach
exec-file-mismatch handling is currently "ask"
as the build-ids differ when an exec-file is recompiled.
This patch ensures that the exec-file-mismatch check is done with an up to date
build-id. With this, exec-file-mismatch check will only trigger when the
PID file really differs from the (build-id refreshed) current exec-file.
Note that the additional check does not (yet) reload the symbols if
the exec-file is changed: this reload will happen later if needed.

The file lib/future.exp contains an override of dejagnu's
default_target_compile.
The override is activated if dejagnu's default_target_compile is missing
support for one or more languages.
However, if the override is activated, it's active for all languages.
This unnecessarily extends the scope of potential problems in the override to
languages that don't need the override.
Fix this by limiting the scope of the override.
Also add a note stating for which languages the override is active, as a
reminder that support for those languages needs to be ported to dejagnu. With
my system dejagnu 1.6.1, as well as with current dejagnu trunk, that gives us:
...

local override

In PR 25412, Simon noticed that after the multi-target series, the
tid-reuse.exp testcase manages to create a duplicate thread in the
thread list. Or rather, two threads with the same PTID.
add_thread_silent has code in place to detect the case of a new thread
reusing some older thread's ptid, but it doesn't work correctly
anymore when the old thread is NOT the current thread and it has a
refcount higher than 0. Either condition prevents a thread from being
deleted, but the refcount case wasn't being considered. I think the
reason that case wasn't considered is that that code predates
thread_info refcounting. Back when it was originally written,
delete_thread always deleted the thread.
That add_thread_silent code in question has some now-unnecessary
warts, BTW. For instance, this:
/* Make switch_to_thread not read from the thread. */
new_thr->state = THREAD_EXITED;
... used to be required because switch_to_thread would update
'stop_pc' otherwise. I.e., it would read registers from an exited
thread otherwise. switch_to_thread no longer reads the stop_pc, since:
commit f2ffa92bbc
Author: Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Jun 28 20:18:24 2018 +0100
gdb: Eliminate the 'stop_pc' global
Also, if the ptid of the now-gone current thread is reused, we
currently return from add_thread_silent with the current thread
pointing at the _new_ thread. Either pointing at the old thread, or
at no thread selected would be reasonable. But pointing at an
unrelated thread (the new thread that happens to reuse the ptid) is
just broken. Seems like I was the one who wrote it like that but I
have no clue why, FWIW.
Currently, an exited thread kept in the thread list still holds its
original ptid. The idea was that we need the ptid to be able to
temporarily switch to another thread and then switch back to the
original thread, because thread switching is really inferior_ptid
switching. Switching back to the original thread requires a ptid
lookup.
Now, in order to avoid exited threads with the same ptid as a live
thread in the same thread list, one thing I considered (and tried) was
to change an exited thread's ptid to minus_one_ptid. However, with
that, there's a case that we won't handle well, which is if we end up
with more than one exited thread in the list, since then all exited
threads will all have the same ptid. Since inferior_thread() relies
on inferior_ptid, may well return the wrong thread.
My next attempt to address this, was to switch an exited thread's ptid
to a globally unique "exited" ptid, which is a ptid with pid == -1 and
tid == 'the thread's global GDB thread number'. Note that GDB assumes
that the GDB global thread number is monotonically increasing and
doesn't wrap around. (We should probably make GDB thread numbers
64-bit to prevent that happening in practice; they're currently signed
32-bit.) This attempt went a long way, but still ran into a number of
issues. It was a major hack too, obviously.
My next attempt is the one that I'm proposing, which is to bite the
bullet and break the connection between inferior_ptid and
inferior_thread(), aka the current thread. I.e., make the current
thread be a global thread_info pointer that is written to directly by
switch_to_thread, etc., and making inferior_thread() return that
pointer, instead of having inferior_thread() lookup up the
inferior_ptid thread, by ptid_t. You can look at this as a
continuation of the effort of using more thread_info pointers instead
of ptids when possible.
By making the current thread a global thread_info pointer, we can make
switch_to_thread simply write to the global thread pointer, which
makes scoped_restore_current_thread able to restore back to an exited
thread without relying on unrelyable ptid look ups. I.e., this makes
it not a real problem to have more than one thread with the same ptid
in the thread list. There will always be only one live thread with a
given ptid, so code that looks up a live thread by ptid will always be
able to find the right one.
This change required auditing the whole codebase for places where we
were writing to inferior_ptid directly to change the current thread,
and change them to use switch_to_thread instead or one of its
siblings, because otherwise inferior_thread() would return a thread
unrelated to the changed-to inferior_ptid. That was all (hopefully)
done in previous patches.
After this, inferior_ptid is mainly used by target backend code. It
is also relied on by a number of target methods. E.g., the
target_resume interface and the memory reading routines -- we still
need it there because we need to be able to access memory off of
processes for which we don't have a corresponding inferior/thread
object, like when handling forks. Maybe we could pass down a context
explicitly to target_read_memory, etc.

generic_mourn_inferior already takes care of switching to no thread.

* go32-nat.c (go32_nat_target::create_inferior): Don't write to
inferior_ptid.
A best effort patch, which fixes some bit rot and removes some
inferior_ptid references -- this port clearly hasn't been built in a
long while.

inferior_ptid directly.

* tracefile-tfile.c (tfile_target_open): Don't write to
inferior_ptid directly, instead switch to added thread.
(tfile_target::close): Use switch_to_no_thread instead of writing
to inferior_ptid directly.
The inferior_ptid write in procfs_do_thread_registers should be
unnecessary because the target_fetch_registers method should (and
does) extract the ptid from the regcache.
Not tested.
