Some remote stubs do not have a proper exit() function implementation.
gdb.base/bang.exp was failing on those targets due to timeout. With
this patch bang.exp uses already defined library procedures to handle
this situation gracefully without breaking native targets.
Tested with x86_64 (unix, native-gdbserver) and with arc-*-elf32.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2013-10-25 Anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@synopsys.com> (tiny change)
* gdb.base/bang.exp: Use gdb_continue_to_end to properly support
remote stubs where exit() behaviour is unreliable.
With:
struct static_struct { static int aaa; };
struct static_struct sss;
int main () { return 0; }
We get:
(gdb) p sss
$1 = {static aaa = <optimized out>}
(gdb) p sss.aaa
field aaa is nonexistent or has been optimized out
Note that the "field aaa ..." message is an error being thrown.
GDB is graceful everywhere else when printing optimized out values.
IOW it usually prints an <optimized out> value and puts that in the
value history. I see no reason for here to be different, more so that
when the print the whole "containing" object (well, it's a static
field, so it's not really a container), we already print <optimized
out>.
After the patch:
(gdb) p sss
$1 = {static aaa = <optimized out>}
(gdb) p sss.aaa
$2 = <optimized out>
The value_entirely_optimized_out checks are there to preserve
behavior. Without those, if the static field is a struct/union, GDB
would go and print its fields one by one (and print <optimized out>
for each).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

When I do 'si', I find many 'qXfer:traceframe-info:read' packets are sent,
which is not necessary. It slows down the single step.

This problem was introduced by this patch
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-04/msg00000.html), in
which get_traceframe_number is not checked before calling
traceframe_available_memory. This patch moves the check to
remote_traceframe_info, say, if GDB doesn't have traceframe selected, GDB
doesn't need to send qXfer:traceframe-info:read packets.
With this patch applied, there is no qXfer:traceframe-info:read sent
out and single step is speed up a little bit.

Occasionaly we hear about people having problems with GDB not being
able to start programs (with "run"/"start"). GDB spawns a shell to
start the program, and most often, it'll be the case that the problem
is actually with the user's shell setup.
GDB has code to disable the use of the shell to start programs.
That's the STARTUP_WITH_SHELL macro that native targets could set to 0
in their nm.h file (though no target actually uses it nowadays).
This patch makes that setting a run-time knob instead. This will be
useful to quickly diagnose such shell issues, and might also come in
handy at other times (such as when debugging the shell itself, if you
don't have a different shell handy).

The other day while debugging something related to random signals, I
got confused with "set debug infrun 1" output, for it said:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal 20
On GNU/Linux, 20 is SIGTSTP. For some reason, it took me a few
minutes to realize that 20 is actually a GDB signal number, not a
target signal number (duh!). In any case, I propose making GDB's
output clearer here:
One way would be to use gdb_signal_to_name, like already used
elsewhere:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal SIGCHLD (20)
but I think that might confuse someone too ("20? Why does GDB believe
SIGCHLD is 20?"). So I thought of printing the enum string instead:
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal GDB_SIGNAL_CHLD (20)
Looking at a more complete infrun debug log, we had actually printed
the (POSIX) signal name name a bit before:
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 9300 [Thread 0x7ffff7fcb740 (LWP 9300)],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = SIGCHLD
...
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4e8b94
infrun: random signal 20
So I'm now thinking that it'd be even better to make infrun output
consistently use the enum symbol string, like so:
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (Thread 0x7ffff7fca700 (LWP 25663))
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (Thread 0x7ffff7fcb740 (LWP 25659))

infrun: infwait_normal_state

+ infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: infwait_normal_state

GDB's signal numbers are public and hardcoded (see
include/gdb/signals.h), so there's really no need to clutter the
output with numeric values in some places while others not. Replacing
the magic "144" with GDB_SIGNAL_DEFAULT in "proceed"'s debug output
(see above) I think is quite nice.
I posit that all this makes it clearer to newcomers that GDB has its
own signal numbering (and that there must be some mapping going on).
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

In the first hunk, the format string was off-by-one for cmd, and cmd
itself was larger than the maximum size required. cmd was reduced in
size and the format string adjusted.
In the second hunk, the format string was off-by-one for local_address,
remote_address and extra, although the buffers for the two addresses
were large enough for this not to matter. The specifiers for the two
addresses was corrected, and a number of unused variables including
extra were suppressed from parsing.
In the third hunk, the format string was off-by-one for name,
dependencies and status. This code was rewritten using strtok since
dependencies can be arbitrarily long.

'*ecs' is always memset by handle_inferior_event's callers, so all
these clears are unnecessary. There's one place that sets the flag to
true, but, afterwards, before ecs->random_signal is ever read, we
reach the part of handle_inferior_even that clears ecs->random_signal,
among other things:
clear_stop_func (ecs);
ecs->event_thread->stepping_over_breakpoint = 0;
bpstat_clear (&ecs->event_thread->control.stop_bpstat);
ecs->event_thread->control.stop_step = 0;
stop_print_frame = 1;
ecs->random_signal = 0;
stopped_by_random_signal = 0;
So all these ecs->random_signal accesses are dead code.

* infrun.c (keep_going): Update comments.
I realized that remote.c is not validating input here. Currently, if
a remote stub sends in an invalid signal number (or put another way,
if a future stub sends a new signal an old GDB doesn't know about),
GDB will do out of bounds accesses in the
signal_pass/signal_stop/signal_program arrays. It'll probably be a
long while before we add another signal number (and buggy stubs should
just be fixed), but can't hurt to be defensive.

- The Mach exception/signals escaped the TARGET_ -> GDB_ prefix change

for TARGET_EXC and fixed all found, which unsurprisingly, means
darwin-nat.c needed fixing. I think the change there is as obvious
and trivial as it can get, so I'd be quite surprised if this broke
anything there somehow.
- GDB_SIGNAL_LAST's description string was unnecessarily inconsistent
with the enum name.

Notice how the third "si" didn't actually make progress.
Turning on infrun and lin-lwp debug, we see:
(gdb)
infrun: clear_proceed_status_thread (process 5252)
infrun: proceed (addr=0xffffffffffffffff, signal=144, step=1)
infrun: resume (step=1, signal=0), trap_expected=0, current thread [process 5252] at 0x323d4ba7c4

LNW: waitpid(-1, ...) returned 5252, No child processes
LLW: waitpid 5252 received Child exited (stopped)
LLW: Candidate event Child exited (stopped) in process 5252.
SEL: Select single-step process 5252
LLW: exit
infrun: target_wait (-1, status) =
infrun: 5252 [process 5252],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = SIGCHLD
infrun: infwait_normal_state
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x323d4ba7c4
infrun: random signal 20
infrun: stepi/nexti
infrun: stop_stepping
So the inferior got a SIGCHLD (because the fork child exited while
we're doing 'si'), and since that signal is set to "nostop noprint
pass" (by default), it's considered a random signal, so it should not
cause a stop. But, it resulted in an immediate a stop_stepping call
anyway. So the single-step never really finished.
This is a regression caused by:
[[PATCH] Do not respawn signals, take 2.]

Specifically, caused by this change (as mentioned in the "the lost
step issue first" part of that mail):

That made GDB fall through to the

part. However, if we don't have a stepped thread to get back to,
we'll now also fall through to all the "stepping" tests. For line
stepping, that'll turn out okay, as we'll just end up realizing the
thread is still in the stepping range, and needs to be re-stepped.
However, for stepi/nexti, we'll reach:
if (ecs->event_thread->control.step_range_end == 1)
{
/* It is stepi or nexti. We always want to stop stepping after
one instruction. */
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "infrun: stepi/nexti\n");
ecs->event_thread->control.stop_step = 1;
print_end_stepping_range_reason ();
stop_stepping (ecs);
return;
}
and stop, even though the thread actually made no progress. The fix
is to restore the keep_going call, but put it after the "switch back
to the stepped thread" code, and before the stepping tests.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver. New test included.

This patch fixes PR gdb/15995.
The bug here is that gdb's printf command does not flush the output
stream. This makes a printf that is not newline-terminated interleave
incorrectly with other forms of output, such as that generated via a
call to an external program using "shell".
I note that the "output" command already does this flushing.
The fix is to call gdb_flush in printf_command.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
New test case included.
