Introduce a serial interface for select'able events This patch adds a new "event" struct serial type, that is an abstraction specifically for waking up blocking waits/selects, implemented on top of a pipe on POSIX, and on top of a native Windows event (CreateEvent, etc.) on Windows. This will be used to plug signal handler / mainline code races. For example, GDB can indefinitely delay handling a quit request if the user presses Ctrl-C between the last QUIT call and the next (blocking) gdb_select call in the event loop: QUIT; <<< press ctrl-c here and end up blocked in gdb_select indefinitely. gdb_select (...); // whoops, SIGINT was already handled, no EINTR. A global alone (either the quit flag, or the "ready" flag of the async signal handlers in the event loop) is not sufficient. To plug races such as these on POSIX systems, we have to register some waitable file descriptor in the set of files gdb_select waits on, and write to it from the signal handler. This is classically a pipe, and the pattern called the self-pipe trick. On Linux, it could be a more efficient eventfd instead, but I'm sticking with a pipe for simplifity, as we need it for portability anyway. (Alternatively, we could use pselect/ppoll, and block signals until the pselect. The latter is not a design I think GDB could use, because we want the QUIT macro to be super cheap, as it is used in loops. Plus, Windows.) This is a "struct serial" because Windows's gdb_select relies on that. Windows's gdb_select, our "select" replacement, knows how to wait on all kinds of handles (regular files, pipes, sockets, console, etc.) unlike the native Windows "select" function, which can only wait on sockets. Each file descriptor for a "serial" type that is not normally waitable with WaitForMultipleObjects must have a corresponding struct serial instance. gdb_select then internally looks up the struct serial instance that wraps each file descriptor, and asks it for the corresponding Windows waitable handle. We could use serial_pipe() to create a "struct serial"-wrapped pipe that is usable everywhere, including Windows. That's what currently python/python.c uses for cross-thread posting of events. However, serial_write and serial_readchar are not designed to be async-signal-safe on POSIX hosts. It's easier to bypass those when setting/clearing the event source. And writing and a serial pipe is a bit heavy weight on Windows. gdb_select requires an extra thread to wait on the pipe and several Windows events, when a single manual-reset Windows event, with no extra thread is sufficient. The intended usage is simply: - Call make_serial_event to create a serial event object. - From the signal handler call serial_event_set to set the event. - From mainline code, have select/poll wait for serial_event_fd(), in addition to whatever other files you're about to wait for. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-04-12 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add ser-event.c.

Rename common to gdbsupport This is the next patch in the ongoing series to move gdbsever to the top level. This patch just renames the "common" directory. The idea is to do this move in two parts: first rename the directory (this patch), then move the directory to the top. This approach makes the patches a bit more tractable. I chose the name "gdbsupport" for the directory. However, as this patch was largely written by sed, we could pick a new name without too much difficulty. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-07-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * contrib/ari/gdb_ari.sh: Change common to gdbsupport. * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Change common to gdbsupport. *

/* On POSIX hosts, a serial_event is basically an abstraction for the
classical self-pipe trick.
On Windows, a serial_event is a wrapper around a native Windows
event object. Because we want to interface with gdb_select, which
takes file descriptors, we need to wrap that Windows event object
in a file descriptor. As _open_osfhandle can not be used with
event objects, we instead create a dummy file wrap that in a file
descriptor with _open_osfhandle, and pass that as selectable
descriptor to callers. As Windows' gdb_select converts file
descriptors back to Windows handles by calling serial->wait_handle,
nothing ever actually waits on that file descriptor. */

Each file descriptor for a "serial" type that is not normally waitable with WaitForMultipleObjects must have a corresponding struct serial instance. gdb_select then internally looks up the struct serial instance that wraps each file descriptor, and asks it for the corresponding Windows waitable handle. We could use serial_pipe() to create a "struct serial"-wrapped pipe that is usable everywhere, including Windows. That's what currently python/python.c uses for cross-thread posting of events. However, serial_write and serial_readchar are not designed to be async-signal-safe on POSIX hosts. It's easier to bypass those when setting/clearing the event source. And writing and a serial pipe is a bit heavy weight on Windows. gdb_select requires an extra thread to wait on the pipe and several Windows events, when a single manual-reset Windows event, with no extra thread is sufficient. The intended usage is simply: - Call make_serial_event to create a serial event object. - From the signal handler call serial_event_set to set the event. - From mainline code, have select/poll wait for serial_event_fd(), in addition to whatever other files you're about to wait for. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-04-12 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add ser-event.c.

struct serial_event_state *state = (struct serial_event_state *) ser->state;
Introduce a serial interface for select'able events This patch adds a new "event" struct serial type, that is an abstraction specifically for waking up blocking waits/selects, implemented on top of a pipe on POSIX, and on top of a native Windows event (CreateEvent, etc.) on Windows. This will be used to plug signal handler / mainline code races. For example, GDB can indefinitely delay handling a quit request if the user presses Ctrl-C between the last QUIT call and the next (blocking) gdb_select call in the event loop: QUIT; <<< press ctrl-c here and end up blocked in gdb_select indefinitely. gdb_select (...); // whoops, SIGINT was already handled, no EINTR. A global alone (either the quit flag, or the "ready" flag of the async signal handlers in the event loop) is not sufficient. To plug races such as these on POSIX systems, we have to register some waitable file descriptor in the set of files gdb_select waits on, and write to it from the signal handler. This is classically a pipe, and the pattern called the self-pipe trick. On Linux, it could be a more efficient eventfd instead, but I'm sticking with a pipe for simplifity, as we need it for portability anyway. (Alternatively, we could use pselect/ppoll, and block signals until the pselect. The latter is not a design I think GDB could use, because we want the QUIT macro to be super cheap, as it is used in loops. Plus, Windows.) This is a "struct serial" because Windows's gdb_select relies on that. Windows's gdb_select, our "select" replacement, knows how to wait on all kinds of handles (regular files, pipes, sockets, console, etc.) unlike the native Windows "select" function, which can only wait on sockets. Each file descriptor for a "serial" type that is not normally waitable with WaitForMultipleObjects must have a corresponding struct serial instance. gdb_select then internally looks up the struct serial instance that wraps each file descriptor, and asks it for the corresponding Windows waitable handle. We could use serial_pipe() to create a "struct serial"-wrapped pipe that is usable everywhere, including Windows. That's what currently python/python.c uses for cross-thread posting of events. However, serial_write and serial_readchar are not designed to be async-signal-safe on POSIX hosts. It's easier to bypass those when setting/clearing the event source. And writing and a serial pipe is a bit heavy weight on Windows. gdb_select requires an extra thread to wait on the pipe and several Windows events, when a single manual-reset Windows event, with no extra thread is sufficient. The intended usage is simply: - Call make_serial_event to create a serial event object. - From the signal handler call serial_event_set to set the event. - From mainline code, have select/poll wait for serial_event_fd(), in addition to whatever other files you're about to wait for. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-04-12 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add ser-event.c.
