Currently, every internal_error call must be passed __FILE__/__LINE__
explicitly, like:
internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__, "foo %d", var);
The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.
The non-mechanical changes are in gdbsupport/errors.h,
gdbsupport/gdb_assert.h, and gdb/gdbarch.py.

I spotted that the gdb.gdb/unittest.exp script causes a temporary file
inserters_extractors-2.txt to be created in build/gdb/testsuite/
instead of in build/gdb/testsuite/output/gdb.gdb/unittest/.
This is because some of the 'maint selftest' tests create temporary
files in GDB's current directory, specifically, the two source files:
gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/inserters/wchar_t/2.cc
gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/inserters/char/2.cc
both create a temporary file called inserters_extractors-2.txt, though
we only run the second of these as part of GDB's selftests.
I initially proposed just using GDB's 'cd' command in unittest.exp to
switch to the test output directory before running the selftests,
however, Pedro pointed out that there was a risk here that, if GDB
crashed during shutdown, the generated core file would be left in the
test output directory rather than in the testsuite directory. As a
result, our clever core file spotting logic would fail to spot the
core file and alert the user.
Instead, I propose this slightly more involved solution. I've added a
new with_gdb_cwd directory proc, used like this:
with_gdb_cwd $directory {
# Tests here...
}
The new proc temporarily switches to $directory and then runs the
tests within the block. After running the tests the previous current
working directory is restored.
Additionally, after switching back to the previous cwd, we check that
GDB is still responsive. This means that if GDB crashed immediately
prior to restoring the previous directory, and left the core file in
the wrong place, then the responsiveness check will fail, and a FAIL
will be emitted, this should be enough to alert the user that
something has gone wrong.
With this commit in place the unittest.exp script now leaves its
temporary file in the test output directory.
I spotted that the test gdb.dwarf2/dw2-using-debug-str.exp was
creating an output file called debug_str_section in the root
build/gdb/testsuite directory instead of using the
build/gdb/testsuite/output/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-using-debug-str/ directory.
This appears to be caused by a missing '$' character. We setup a
variable debug_str_section which contains a path within the output
directory, but then when we build the objcopy command we use
'debug_str_section' without a '$' prefix, as a result, we create the
debug_str_section file.
This commit adds the missing '$', the file is now created in the
output directory.
Allows aarch64-pe to be targeted natively, not having to use objcopy to convert it from ELF to PE.

In the downstream ROCm GDB port, we would create multiple register
groups with duplicate names. While it did not really hurt, it certainly
wasn't the intent. And I don't think it ever makes sense to do so.
To catch these, change the assert in reggroups::add to check for
duplicate names. It's no longer necessary to check for duplicate
reggroup pointers, because adding the same group twice would be caught
by the duplicate name check.

PR python/16324 points out that comparing a frame id to null_frame_id
can never succeed, and proposes simply removing the dead code. That
is what this patch does.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16324
The hardware watchpoint check has been updated in a couple of recent
patches. This patch updates the hardware watchpoint test in the remaining
gdb tests.
The issue is the PowerPC processors support hardware watchpoints with the
exception of Power 9. The hardware watchpoint support is disabled on
Power 9. The test skip_hw_watchpoint_tests must be used to correctly
determine if the PowerPC processor supports hardware watchpoints.
This patch fixes 6 test failures in test gdb.threads/watchpoint-fork.exp.
Test gdb.base/watch-vfork.exp runs with can-use-hw-watchpoints set to
true and false. When the test is run with can-use-hw-watchpoints set to
true, gdb just falls back to using software watchpoints. The
patch reduces the number of expected passes by 2 since because it now
only runs once with can-use-hw-watchpoints set to false.
Test gdb.mi/mi-watch.exp runs the test with argument hw and sw. If the
argument is hw and hardware watchpoints are not supported the test exits.
The number of expected passes is cut in half with the patch as it now only
runs the test using software breakpoints. Previously the pass to use
hardware watchpoints was not skipped and the test actually ran using
software watchpoints.
The following tests run the same with and without the patch. The tests
are supposed to execute the gdb command "set can-use-hw-watchpoints 0" if
the processor does not support hardware bwatchpoints. However the command
was not being executed and gdb was falling back to using software
watchpoints since the Power 9 watchpoint resource check fails. With the
patch, the tests now execute the command and the test runs using software
watchpoints as it did previously. The tests are:
gdb.base/commands.exp
gdb.base/cond-eval-mode.exp
gdb.base/display.exp
gdb.base/gdb11531.exp
gdb.base/recurse.exp
gdb.base/value-double-free.exp
gdb.base/watch-bitfields.exp
gdb.base/watch-cond-infcall.exp
gdb.base/watch-cond.exp
gdb.base/watchpoint-solib.exp
gdb.base/watchpoints.exp
The following two tests are not supported on the Power 9 system used to
test the changes. The patch does not change the tests results for these
tests:
gdb.python/py-breakpoint.exp
gdb.mi/mi-watch-nonstop.exp

means the board now uses a pseudo-tty, but with editing disabled.
When looking up names, GDB needs to stay within one linker namespace to
find the correct instance in case the same name is provided in more than
one namespace.
Modify svr4_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order() to stay within the
namespace of the current_objfile argument. If no current_objfile is
provided (i.e. it is nullptr), iterate over objfiles in the initial
namespace.
For objfiles that do not have a corresponding so_list to provide the
namespace, assume that the objfile was loaded into the initial namespace.
This would cover the main executable objfile (which is indeed loaded into
the initial namespace) as well as manually added symbol files.
Expected fails:
- gdb.base/non-lazy-array-index.exp: the expression parser may lookup
global symbols, which may result in xfers to read auxv for determining
the debug base as part of svr4_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order().
- gdb.server/non-lazy-array-index.exp: symbol lookup may access the
target to read AUXV in order to determine the debug base for SVR4
linker namespaces.
Known issues:
- get_symbol_address() and get_msymbol_address() search objfiles for a
'better' match. This was introduced by
4b610737f0 Handle copy relocations
to handle copy relocations but it now causes a wrong address to be
read after symbol lookup actually cound the correct symbol. This can
be seen, for example, with gdb.base/dlmopen.exp when compiled with
clang.
- gnu ifuncs are only looked up in the initial namespace.
- lookup_minimal_symbol() and lookup_minimal_symbol_text() directly
iterate over objfiles and are not aware of linker namespaces.
Update elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_cache() and elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got()
to use gdbarch_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order() in order to
restrict the objfile traversal to the initial namespace.
In order to extend this to other namespaces, we'd need to provide context,
e.g. via an objfile inside that namespace.
There is only one use of find_quick_global_symbol_language that calls it
for the special symbol "main".
Inline the function as it is probably not correct in the general case
where we may have multiple instances of global symbols with the same name
but different languages in different libraries in different linker
namespaces.
Further, change the objfiles iteration into a call to
gdbarch_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order, which would only search the
initial linker namespace, where we expect "main" to be located.
I stumbled over this while reviewing all objfiles traversals with regards
to impact of linker namespaces.
Recursive grep only finds two occurrences of hppa_lookup_stub_minimal_symbol:
- the declaration in hppa-tdep.h.
- the definition in hppa-tdep.c.
There appear to be no calls to this function. Remove it.
Iterate over objfiles in search order using the objfile of the selected
block as current_objfile so the iteration can stay inside the block's
linker namespace.
Iterate over objfile in search order using the objfile of the context
block as current_objfile so the iteration can stay inside the block's
linker namespace.
When searching for standard exceptions for Ada, we lookup the minimal
symbol of each exception. With linker namespaces there can be multiple
instances in different namespaces. Collect them all.
The implementation of gdb.lookup_objfile() iterates over all objfiles and
compares their name or build id to the user-provided search string.
This will cause problems when supporting linker namespaces as the first
objfile in any namespace will be found. Instead, use
gdbarch_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order to only consider the
namespace of gdb.current_objfile() for the search, which defaults to the
initial namespace when gdb.current_objfile() is None.
When cleaning up after a compile command, we iterate over all objfiles and
unlink the first objfile with the same name as the one we compiled.
Since we already store a pointer to that objfile in the module and use it
to get the name we're comparing against, there's no reason to iterate, at
all. We can simply use that objfile.
This further avoids potential issues when an objfile with the same name is
loaded into a different linker namespace.
Introduce a new qXfer:libraries-svr4:read annex key/value pair
lmid=<namespace identifier>
to be used together with start and prev to provide the namespace of start
and prev to gdbserver.
Unknown key/value pairs are ignored by gdbserver so no new supports check
is needed.
Introduce a new library-list-svr4 library attribute
lmid
to provide the namespace of a library entry to GDB.
This implementation uses the address of a namespace's r_debug object as
namespace identifier.
This should have incremented the minor version but since unknown XML
attributes are ignored, anyway, and since changing the version results in
a warning from GDB, the version is left at 1.0.
In glibc, the r_debug structure contains (amongst others) the following
fields:
int r_version:
Version number for this protocol. It should be greater than 0.
If r_version is 2, struct r_debug is extended to struct r_debug_extended
with one additional field:
struct r_debug_extended *r_next;
Link to the next r_debug_extended structure. Each r_debug_extended
structure represents a different namespace. The first r_debug_extended
structure is for the default namespace.
1. Change solib_svr4_r_map argument to take the debug base.
2. Add solib_svr4_r_next to find the link map in the next namespace from
the r_next field.
3. Update svr4_current_sos_direct to get the link map in the next namespace
from the r_next field.
4. Don't check shared libraries in other namespaces when updating shared
libraries in a new namespace.
5. Update svr4_same to check the load offset in addition to the name
6. Update svr4_default_sos to also set l_addr_inferior
7. Change the flat solib_list into a per-namespace list using the
namespace's r_debug address to identify the namespace.
Add gdb.base/dlmopen.exp to test this.
To remain backwards compatible with older gdbserver, we reserve the
namespace zero for a flat list of solibs from all namespaces. Subsequent
patches will extend RSP to allow listing libraries grouped by namespace.
This fixes PR 11839.

While investigating PR symtab/29179, I found that one Ada test failed
because, although a certain symbol was present in the index, with the
new DWARF reader it pointed to a different CU than was chosen by
earlier versions of gdb.
This patch changes how symbol de-duplication is done, deferring the
process until the entire symbol table has been constructed. This way,
it's possible to always choose the lower-numbered CU among duplicates,
which is how gdb (implicitly) previously worked.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29179
The cooked index work changed how .gdb_index is constructed, and in
the process broke .gdb_index support. This is PR symtab/29179.
This patch partially fixes the problem. It arranges for Ada names to
be encoded in the form expected by the index code. In particular,
linkage names for Ada are emitted, including the "main" name; names
are Ada-encoded; and names are no longer case-folded, something that
prevented operator names from round-tripping correctly.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29179
The compiler will sometimes emit a linkage name for a type, like:
<1d3> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x106f): 11__mbstate_t
These names aren't very useful, and this patch changes the DWARF
reader so that they are ignored by the cooked index.
c-linkage-name.exp started failing with the gdb-index target board due
to an earlier patch. The problem here is that some linkage names must
be in the index -- but, based on inspection, not C++ linkage names.
This patch updates the code to exclude only these.
Since "NULL" and "0" are used to represent invalid address in function
"gdbarch_find_by_info" in "binutils-gdb/gdb/arch-utils.c", I modified
them to "nullptr".

This is because clang 15 warns for something like this:

n = 0;
++n;
whereas previous versions do not.
yynerrs is defined in yyparse and is there for actions to use. Since
the actions in cp-name-parser.y don't use it, we get a warning. We see
this problem on this particular .y file because it uses `%pure-parser`
[1], which makes yynerrs a local rather than a global.
I initially fixed this by using
DIAGNOSTIC_IGNORE_UNUSED_BUT_SET_VARIABLE (like in commit f7aa1a5acc
("gold: Suppress "unused" variable warning on Clang")), but then I
realized we could suppress the warning in a more fine-grained way using
this in a rule:

This patch changes a few more uses of static_cast to use
checked_static_cast. In this patch, cast-to-references are converted
by moving the dereference outside of the cast, as checked_static_cast
only handles pointers.
Setting SP of the next frame to the same address as the current frame
is an ugly way to stop the unwinding. A cleaner way is to rely on
the frame_unwind_stop_reason function to return UNWIND_OUTERMOST.

and according to https://stackoverflow.com/a/63241102 the behaviour we're

The related host board local-remote-host.exp does use '-t', and the only
difference between the two boards mentioned is whether editing is on or off.

- moving the content of local-remote-host-notty.exp into

gdb) are the same. For this host board however, gdb executes on a remote
host, and the setenv has no effect.
We could try to make some generic way to set TERM on the host, but for the
purposes of this test-case it seems sufficient to just add:
...
set GDBFLAGS "${GDBFLAGS} -iex \"set style enabled off\""
...
so let's go with that for now.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
I looked at all the spots using value_mark, and converted all the
straightforward ones to use scoped_value_mark instead.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.
When it's impossible to read the FPCCR and XPSR, the unwinding is
unpredictable as the it's not possible to determine the correct
frame size or padding.
The only sane thing to do in this condition is to stop the unwinding.
Example session without this patch:

.../gdb/arm-tdep.c:3594: internal-error: arm_m_exception_cache: Assertion `safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer (FPCCR, ARM_INT_REGISTER_SIZE, byte_order, &fpccr)' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.

I noticed in gdb.base/skip-solib.exp:
...
if {[gdb_compile_shlib ${srcdir}/${subdir}/${srcfile_lib} ${binfile_lib} \
[list debug -Wl,-soname,${libname}.so]] != ""} {
return -1
}
...
that the -Wl,-soname argument is missing an ldflags= prefix, but adding it
gives us a duplicate:
...
Executing on host: gcc -fno-stack-protector \
outputs/gdb.base/skip-solib/skip-solib-lib.c.o -fdiagnostics-color=never \
-shared -g -Wl,-soname,libskip-solib.so -Wl,-soname,libskip-solib.so -lm \
-o outputs/gdb.base/skip-solib/libskip-solib.so (timeout = 300)
...
so apparently it's taken care of by gdb_compile_shlib.
Drop the inactive and also unnecessary -Wl,-soname,${libname}.so from the
flags list for the gdb_compile_shlib call.

With test-case gdb.base/infoline-reloc-main-from-zero.exp and target board
unix/-fPIE/-pie I run into:
...
gdb compile failed, ld: infoline-reloc-main-from-zero: error: \
PHDR segment not covered by LOAD segment
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
...
When running with native, I find that the executable is static:
...
$ file infoline-reloc-main-from-zero
infoline-reloc-main-from-zero: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, \
version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, BuildID[sha1]=$hex, with debug_info, \
not stripped
...
despite not having been compiled with -static.
Fix the compilation by adding -static to the compilation flags.
