My co-worker Kévin taught me that using a mutable object as a default
argument in Python is somewhat dangerous, because the object is
created a single time (when the function is defined), and so if it is
mutated in the body of the function, the changes will stick around.
This patch changes the cases like this in DAP to use () rather than []
as the default. This patch is merely preventative, as no bugs like
this are in the code.
The 'request' decorator is intended to also ensure that the request
function runs in the DAP thread. However, the unwrapped function is
installed in the global request map, so the wrapped version is never
called. This patch fixes the bug.
When I first started implementing DAP, I had some vague plan of having
the implementation functions use the same name as the request. I
abandoned this idea, but one vestige remained. This patch renames the
one remaining function to be gdb-ish.
This implements the DAP "attach" request.
Note that the copyright dates on the new test source file are not
incorrect -- this was copied verbatim from another directory.

This implements the DAP setExceptionBreakpoints request for Ada. This
is a somewhat minimal implementation, in that "exceptionOptions" are
not implemented (or advertised) -- I wasn't completely sure how this
feature is supposed to work.
I haven't added C++ exception handling here, but it's easy to do if
needed.
This patch relies on the new MI command execution support to do its
work.
Currently, Ada catchpoints require that the inferior be running.
However, there's no deep reason for this -- for example, C++ exception
catchpoints do not have this requirement. Instead, those work like
ordinary breakpoints: they are pending until the needed runtime
locations are seen.
This patch changes Ada catchpoints to work the same way.
This patch merges create_excep_cond_exprs into ada_catchpoint::re_set.
This is less verbose and is also a step toward making ada_catchpoint
work more like the other code_breakpoint-based exception catchpoints.
gnat_runtime_has_debug_info starts a new gdb to do its work. However,
it also leaves this gdb running, which can potentially confuse the
calling test -- I encountered this when writing a new DAP test. This
patch changes the proc to shut down gdb.
With a gdb 13.2 based package on SLE-15 aarch64, I run into:
...

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.python/py-rbreak.exp: check number of returned breakpoints is 11
...
The FAIL is due to:
- the glibc object crti.o containing debug information for function
call_weak_fn, and
- the test-case not expecting this.
The debug information is there due to compiling glibc using a binutils which
contains commit 591cc9fbbf ("gas/Dwarf: record functions").
I've run into a similar issue before, see commit 3fbbcf473a ("[gdb/testsuite]
Fix regexp in py-rbreak.exp").
The fix I applied there was to use a regexp "^[^_]" to filter out
__libc_csu_fini and __libc_csu_init, but that doesn't work for call_weak_fn.
Fix this by:
- reverting the regexp to "", and
- rewriting the check to require at least 11 functions, rather than a precise
match.

This commit implements a fix for a bug reported against GDB on
Fedora bugzilla...
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2166796
The test case in that bug report involved running gdb against the 'jq'
program (which is a command-line JSON processor) on Fedora 37. Since
the debug info is compiler (and compile-time option) dependent, it
won't necessarily show up in other distributions or even past or
future versions of Fedora. (E.g. when trying the example shown below
on Fedora 38, GDB says that the value of 'value' has been optimized
out. I.e. it does not demonstrate the same DWARF error that can be
see when using Fedora 37.)
That said, on Fedora 37, the bug could be reproduced as follows:
[kev@f37-1 ~]$ gdb jq -q -ex 'b src/util.c:415' -ex 'r </dev/null'

DWARF-2 expression error: DW_OP_GNU_uninit must always be the very last op.
This is undesirable - rather than output an error about the DWARF

Examination of the debuginfo showed the following:

Note that there's no DW_AT_location, so I looked for an abstract origin entry:
<2><2dfa0>: Abbrev Number: 90 (DW_TAG_variable)
<2dfa1> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x46921>
<2dfa5> DW_AT_location : 0x27cf1 (location list)
<2dfa9> DW_AT_GNU_locviews: 0x27ce1
(Note that the DW_AT_abstract_origin attribute's value is 0x46921 which
is the DIE for the local variable "value".)
Looking at the location list, I see:
00027cf1 v000000000000000 v000000000000000 views at 00027ce1 for:
000000000002f8fe 000000000002f92e (DW_OP_reg13 (r13); DW_OP_GNU_uninit; DW_OP_piece: 8; DW_OP_reg12 (r12); DW_OP_GNU_uninit; DW_OP_piece: 8)
While DW_OP_GNU_uninit is not the very last op, it is the last op
prior to DW_OP_piece. The fix involved changing the DW_OP_GNU_uninit
case in dwarf_expr_context::execute_stack_op in gdb/dwarf2/expr.c so
that DW_OP_GNU_uninit may appear just before DW_OP_piece.
With the fix in place, attempting to print 'value' now looks like
this:
(gdb) p value
$1 = [uninitialized] {kind_flags = 0 '\000', pad_ = 0 '\000', offset = 0,
size = 0, u = {ptr = 0x0, number = 0}}
Note that "[uninitialized]" is part of the output. (But also note
that there's an extra space character.)
I've made a new test case,
gdb.dwarf2/DW_OP_piece_with_DW_OP_GNU_uninit.exp, by adapting an
existing one, gdb.dwarf2/opt-out-not-implptr.exp. Since it uses the
DWARF assembler, the test case does not depend on a specific compiler
version or compiler options.
Tested on Fedora 37 and Fedora 38.
Add a new test plt-findfre-1 to ensure lookup of SFrame stack trace
information for pltN entries is correct.
In this test, a dummy SFrame FDE of type SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK is
created. The size of the 'function code block' covered by the SFrame
FDE is equivalent to 5 pltN entries of 16 bytes each.
The test first looks up SFrame FREs for some addresses in the first pltN
entry, followed by lookups for some addresses in the fourth pltN entry.

* testsuite/libsframe.find/find.exp: Add new test.

* testsuite/libsframe.find/plt-findfre-1.c: New test.
To find SFrame stack trace information from an FDE of type
SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK, sframe_find_fre () was doing an operation
like,
(start_ip_offset & 0xff) >= (pc & 0xff), etc.
This is buggy and needs correction. The mask 0xff should be 0xf (to
work for a pltN entry of size say, 16 bytes).
At this time, the size of the pltN entry is implicitly assumed to be 16
bytes by libsframe. In next version of the SFrame format, we can encode
this information explicitly in the SFrame FDE.
For now, we should fix the code to at least behave correctly for the
generated code and the generated SFrame stack trace information for the
pltN entries on x86_64.

A GDB crash was discovered on Fedora GDB that was tracked back to an
issue with the way that debuginfod is cleaned up.
The bug was reported on Fedora 37, 38, and 39. Here are the steps to
reproduce:
1. The file /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf contains the following lines:
[provider_sect]
default = default_sect
##legacy = legacy_sect
##
[default_sect]
activate = 1
##[legacy_sect]
##activate = 1
The bug will occur when the '##' characters are removed so that the
lines in question look like this:
[provider_sect]
default = default_sect
legacy = legacy_sect
[default_sect]
activate = 1
[legacy_sect]
activate = 1
2. Clean up any existing debuginfod cache data:
> rm -rf $HOME/.cache/debuginfod_client
3. Run GDB:
> gdb -nx -q -iex 'set trace-commands on' \
-iex 'set debuginfod enabled on' \
-iex 'set confirm off' \
-ex 'start' -ex 'quit' /bin/ls
+set debuginfod enabled on
+set confirm off

Temporary breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffde38) at ../src/ls.c:1646
1646 {

Fatal signal: Segmentation fault
----- Backtrace -----
... snip ...
So GDB ends up crashing during exit.
What's happening is that when debuginfod is initialised
debuginfod_begin is called (this is in the debuginfod library), this
in turn sets up libcurl, which makes use of openssl. Somewhere during
this setup process an at_exit function is registered to cleanup some
state.
Back in GDB the debuginfod_client object is managed using this code:
/* Deleter for a debuginfod_client. */
struct debuginfod_client_deleter
{
void operator() (debuginfod_client *c)
{
debuginfod_end (c);
}
};
using debuginfod_client_up
= std::unique_ptr<debuginfod_client, debuginfod_client_deleter>;
And then a global debuginfod_client_up is created to hold a pointer to
the debuginfod_client object. As a global this will be cleaned up
using the standard C++ global object destructor mechanism, which is
run after the at_exit handlers.
However, it is expected that when debuginfod_end is called the
debuginfod_client object will still be in a usable state, that is, we
don't expect the at_exit handlers to have run and started cleaning up
the library state.
To fix this issue we need to ensure that debuginfod_end is called
before the at_exit handlers have a chance to run.
This commit removes the debuginfod_client_up type, and instead has GDB
hold a raw pointer to the debuginfod_client object. We then make use
of GDB's make_final_cleanup to register a function that will call
debuginfod_end.
As GDB's final cleanups are called before exit is called, this means
that debuginfod_end will be called before the at_exit handlers are
called, and the crash identified above is resolved.
It's not obvious how this issue can easily be tested for. The bug does
not appear to manifest when using a local debuginfod server, so we'd
need to setup something more involved. For now I'm proposing this
patch without any associated tests.

The problem is in cli/cli-cmds.c, in the function setting_cmd, where
we do this:
const char *a0 = (const char *) argv[0]->contents ().data ();
Here argv[0] is a value* which we know is either a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY or
a TYPE_CODE_STRING. The problem is that the above line is casting the
value contents directly to a C-string, i.e. one that is assumed to
have a null-terminator at the end.
After the above commit this can no longer be assumed to be true. A
string value will be represented just as it would be in the current
language, so for Ada and Fortran the string will be an array of
characters with no null-terminator at the end.
My proposed solution is to copy the string contents into a std::string
object, and then use the std::string::c_str() value, this will ensure
that a null-terminator has been added.
I had a check through GDB at places TYPE_CODE_STRING was used and
couldn't see any other obvious places where this type of assumption
was being made, so hopefully this is the only offender.
Running the above test with ASan compiled in no longer gives an error.

I found a couple of spots that could use scoped_value_mark. One of
them is a spot that didn't consider the possibility that value_mark
can return NULL. I tend to doubt this can be seen in this context,
but nevertheless this is safer.

Freeing ecoff_debug_info "pointers to the unswapped symbolic info"
isn't a simple matter, due to differing allocation strategies. In
_bfd_ecoff_slurp_symbolic_info the pointers are to objalloc memory.
In the ecoff linker they are to separately malloc'd memory. In gas we
have most (obj-elf) or all (obj-ecoff) into a single malloc'd buffer.
This patch fixes the leaks for binutils and ld, leaving the gas leaks
for another day. The mips elf backend already had this covered, and
the ecoff backend had a pointer, raw_syments used as a flag, so most
of the patch is moving these around a little so they are accessible
for both ecoff and elf.

In the current implementation, core_target::build_file_mappings will try
to locate and open files which were mapped in the process for which the
core dump was produced. If the file cannot be found or cannot be
opened, GDB will re-try to open it once for each time it was mapped in
the process's address space.
This patch makes it so GDB recognizes that it has already failed to open
a given file once and does not re-try the process for each mapping.

When GDB opens a coredump it tries to locate and then open all files
which were mapped in the process.
If a file is found but cannot be opened with BFD (bfd_open /
bfd_check_format fails), then a warning is printed to the user. If the
same file was mapped multiple times in the process's address space, the
warning is printed once for each time the file was mapped. I find this
un-necessarily noisy.
This patch makes it so the warning message is printed only once per
file.
There was a comment in the code assuming that if the file was found on
the system, opening it (bfd_open + bfd_check_format) should always
succeed. A recent change in BFD (014a602b86 "Don't optimise bfd_seek
to same position") showed that this assumption is not valid. For
example, it is possible to have a core dump of a process which had
mmaped an IO page from a DRI render node (/dev/dri/runderD$NUM). In
such case the core dump does contain the information that portions of
this special file were mapped in the host process, but trying to seek to
position 0 will fail, making bfd_check_format fail. This patch removes
this comment.

In core_target::build_file_mappings, GDB tries to open files referenced
in the core dump.
The process goes like this:
struct bfd *bfd = bfd_map[filename];
if (bfd == nullptr)
{
bfd = bfd_map[filename]
= bfd_openr (expanded_fname.get (), "binary");
if (bfd == nullptr || !bfd_check_format (bfd, bfd_object))
{
if (bfd != nullptr)
bfd_close (bfd);
return;
}
}
asection *sec = bfd_make_section_anyway (bfd, "load");
...
The problem is that if bfd_check_format fails, we close the bfd but keep
a reference to it in the bfd_map.
If the same filename appears another time in the NT_FILE note, we enter
this code again. The second time, bfd_map[filename] is not nullptr and
we try to call bfd_make_section_anyway on an already closed BFD, which
is a use-after-free error.
This patch makes sure that the bfd is only saved in the bfd_map if it
got opened successfully.
This error got exposed by a recent change in BFD (014a602b86 "Don't
optimise bfd_seek to same position"). Since this change, opening a
coredump which contains mapping to some special files such as a DRI
render node (/dev/dri/renderD$NUM) exposes the issue. This happens for
example for processes using AMDGPU devices to offload compute tasks.

In commit faf01aee1d ("[gdb] Handle pending ^C after rl_callback_read_char")
we handled a problem (described in detail in that commit) for readline >= 8
using public readline functions rl_pending_signal and rl_check_signals.
For readline 7 (note that we require at least readline 7 so there's no need to
worry about readline 6), there was no fix though, because rl_check_signals was
not available.
Fix this by instead using the private readline function _rl_signal_handler.
There is precedent for using private readline variables and functions, but
it's something we want to get rid of (PR build/10723). Nevertheless, I think
we can allow this specific instance because it's not used when building
against readline >= 8.
[ In the meanwhile, a fix was committed in the devel branch of the readline
repo, contained in commit 8d0c439 ("rollup of changes since readline-8.2"),
first proposed here (
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2022-10/msg00008.html ). ]

The gdb.dwarf2/dw2-prologue-end-2.exp test was failing for both AArch64 and
Arm.
As Tom pointed out here (https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/6663707c-4297-c2f2-a0bd-f3e84fc62aad@suse.de/),
there are issues with both the prologue skipper for AArch64 and Arm and an
incorrect assumption by the testcase.
This patch fixes both of AArch64's and Arm's prologue skippers to not skip past
the end of a function. It also incorporates a fix to the testcase so it
doesn't assume the prologue skipper will stop at the first instruction of the
functions/labels.
