Tom de Vries 745ff14e6e [gdb/tdep] Fix 'Unexpected register class' assert in amd64_push_arguments
Atm, when executing gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp on x86_64-linux, we get:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs.exp: l=c++: types-tc-tf: \
  p/d check_arg_struct_02_01 (ref_val_struct_02_01)

                === gdb Summary ===

nr of expected passes            9255
nr of unexpected failures        3
nr of expected failures          142
...

The 3 FAILs are reported as PR tdep/25096.

The 142 XFAILs are for a gdb assertion failure, reported in PR tdep/24104,
which should have been KFAILs since there's a problem in gdb rather than in
the environment.

A minimal version of the assertion failure looks like this. Consider test.c:
...
struct s { struct { } es1; long f; };
struct s ref = { {}, 'f' };

int __attribute__((noinline,noclone)) check (struct s arg)
{ return arg.f == 'f'; }

int main (void)
{ return check (ref); }
...

When calling 'check (ref)' from main, we have '1' as expected:
...
$ g++ test3.c -g && ( ./a.out; echo $? )
1
...

But when calling 'check (ref)' from the gdb prompt, we get:
...
$ gdb a.out -batch -ex start -ex "p check (ref)"
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4004f7: file test.c, line 8.

Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:8
8       { return check (ref); }
src/gdb/amd64-tdep.c:982: internal-error: \
  CORE_ADDR amd64_push_arguments(regcache*, int, value**, CORE_ADDR, \
                                 function_call_return_method): \
  Assertion `!"Unexpected register class."' failed.
...

The assert happens in this loop in amd64_push_arguments:
...
          for (j = 0; len > 0; j++, len -= 8)
            {
              int regnum = -1;
              int offset = 0;

              switch (theclass[j])
                {
                case AMD64_INTEGER:
                  regnum = integer_regnum[integer_reg++];
                  break;

                case AMD64_SSE:
                  regnum = sse_regnum[sse_reg++];
                  break;

                case AMD64_SSEUP:
                  gdb_assert (sse_reg > 0);
                  regnum = sse_regnum[sse_reg - 1];
                  offset = 8;
                  break;

                default:
                  gdb_assert (!"Unexpected register class.");
                }
		...
            }
...
when processing theclass[0], which is AMD64_NO_CLASS:
...
(gdb) p theclass
$1 = {AMD64_NO_CLASS, AMD64_INTEGER}
...

The layout of struct s is that the empty field es1 occupies one byte (due to
c++) at offset 0, and the long field f occupies 8 bytes at offset 8.

When compiling at -O2, we can see from the disassembly of main:
...
  4003f0:       48 8b 3d 41 0c 20 00    mov    0x200c41(%rip),%rdi \
                                               # 601038 <ref+0x8>
  4003f7:       e9 e4 00 00 00          jmpq   4004e0 <_Z5check1s>
  4003fc:       0f 1f 40 00             nopl   0x0(%rax)
...
that check is called with field f passed in %rdi, meaning that the
classification in theclass is correct, it's just not supported in the loop in
amd64_push_arguments mentioned above.

Fix the assert by implementing support for 'AMD64_NO_CLASS' in that loop.

This exposes 9 more FAILs of the PR tdep/25096 type, so mark all 12 of them as
KFAIL.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

Tested with g++ 4.8.5, 7.4.1, 8.3.1, 9.2.1.  With 4.8.5, 3 of the 12 KFAILs
are KPASSing.

Tested with clang++ 5.0.2 (which requires removing additional_flags=-Wno-psabi
and adding additional_flags=-Wno-deprecated).

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
