When the GCC compiler plugin responds with GCC_C_FE_VERSION_2, gdb can
use the new 'finish_record_with_alignment' method. This lets gdb pass
alignment information to the compiler, which in turn fixes the test
case included in this patch.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31397
This removes the embedded 'if' from GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and
GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION. I believe this 'if' was necessary with
the old gdb try/catch macros, but it no longer is: these should only
ever be called from a 'catch' block, where it's already known that an
exception was thrown.
Simon pointed out, though, that in a few spots, these were in facts
called outside of 'catch' blocks. This patch cleans up these spots.
I also found one spot where a redundant 'return nullptr' could be
removed.
On aarch64-linux, with test-case gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp I run into:
...
(gdb) watch data.u.size8twice[1]^M
Hardware watchpoint 241: data.u.size8twice[1]^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: watch data.u.size8twice[1]
continue^M
Continuing.^M
FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: continue (timeout)
FAIL: gdb.base/watchpoint-unaligned.exp: size8twice write
...
This happens as follows.
We start the exec and set an 8-byte hardware watchpoint on
data.u.size8twice[1] at address 0x440048:
...
(gdb) p sizeof (data.u.size8twice[1])
$1 = 8
(gdb) p &data.u.size8twice[1]
$2 = (uint64_t *) 0x440048 <data+16>
...
We continue execution, and a 16-byte write at address 0x440040 triggers the
hardware watchpoint:
...
4101c8: a9000801 stp x1, x2, [x0]
...
When checking whether a watchpoint has triggered in
aarch64_stopped_data_address, we check against address 0x440040 (passed in
parameter addr_trap). This behaviour is documented:
...
/* ADDR_TRAP reports the first address of the memory range
accessed by the CPU, regardless of what was the memory
range watched. ... */
...
and consequently the matching logic compares against an addr_watch_aligned:
...
&& addr_trap >= addr_watch_aligned
&& addr_trap < addr_watch + len)
...
However, the comparison fails:
...
(gdb) p /x addr_watch_aligned
$3 = 0x440048
(gdb) p addr_trap >= addr_watch_aligned
$4 = false
...
Consequently, aarch64_stopped_data_address returns false, and
stopped_by_watchpoint returns false, and watchpoints_triggered returns 0,
which make infrun think it's looking at a delayed hardware
breakpoint/watchpoint trap:
...
[infrun] handle_signal_stop: stop_pc=0x4101c8
[infrun] handle_signal_stop: delayed hardware breakpoint/watchpoint trap, ignoring
...
Infrun then ignores the trap and continues, but runs into the same situation
again and again, causing a hang which then causes the test timeout.
Fix this by allowing a match 8 bytes below addr_watch_aligned. This
introduces the possibility for false positives, so we only do this for regular
"value changed" watchpoints.
An earlier version of this patch worked by aligning addr_watch_aligned to 16
instead of 8:
...
- const CORE_ADDR addr_watch_aligned = align_down (state->dr_addr_wp[i], 8);
+ const CORE_ADDR addr_watch_aligned = align_down (state->dr_addr_wp[i], 16);
...
but while that fixed the test-case, it didn't fix the problem completely, so
extend the test-case to check more scenarios.

In a minimal form, if we step past line 37 which sets q.e, and we have a
watchpoint set on q.e, it triggers:
...
$ gdb -q -batch watch-bitfields -ex "b 37" -ex run -ex "watch q.e" -ex step

Old value = 0
New value = 5
main () at /home/vries/gdb/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/watch-bitfields.c:38
38 q.f = 6;
...
However, if we set in addition a watchpoint on q.a, the watchpoint on q.e
doesn't trigger.
How does this happen?
Bitfield q.a is just bit 0 of byte 0, and bitfield q.e is bit 4..7 of byte 1
and bit 1 of byte 2. So, watch q.a should watch byte 0, and watch q.e should
watch bytes 1 and 2.
Using "maint set show-debug-regs on" (and some more detailed debug prints) we
get:
...
WP2: addr=0x440028 (orig=0x440029), ctrl=0x000000d5, ref.count=1
ctrl: enabled=1, offset=1, len=2
WP3: addr=0x440028 (orig=0x440028), ctrl=0x00000035, ref.count=1
ctrl: enabled=1, offset=0, len=1
...
which matches that.
When executing line 37, a hardware watchpoint trap triggers and we hit
aarch64_stopped_data_address with addr_trap == 0x440028:
...
(gdb) p /x addr_trap
$1 = 0x440028
....
and since the loop in aarch64_stopped_data_address walks backward, we check
WP3 first, which matches, and consequently target_stopped_by_watchpoint
returns true in watchpoints_triggered.
Likewise for target_stopped_data_address, which also returns addr == 0x440028.
Watchpoints_triggered matches watchpoint q.a to that address, and sets
watch_triggered_yes.
However, subsequently the value of q.a is checked, and it's the same value as
before (becase the insn in line 37 didn't change q.a), so the watchpoint
hardware trap is not reported to the user.
The problem originates from that fact that aarch64_stopped_data_address picked
WP3 instead of WP2.
There's something we can do about this. In the example above, both
target_stopped_by_watchpoint and target_stopped_data_address returned true.
Instead we can return true in target_stopped_by_watchpoint but false in
target_stopped_data_address. This lets watchpoints_triggered known that a
watchpoint was triggered, but we don't know where, and both watchpoints
get set to watch_triggered_unknown.
Subsequently, the values of both q.a and q.e are checked, and since q.e is not
the same value as before, the watchpoint hardware trap is reported to the user.
Note that this works well for regular (write) watchpoints (watch command), but
not for read watchpoints (rwatch command), because for those no value is
checked. Likewise for access watchpoints (awatch command).
So, fix this by:
- passing a nullptr in aarch64_fbsd_nat_target::stopped_by_watchpoint and
aarch64_linux_nat_target::stopped_by_watchpoint to make clear we're not
interested in the stop address,
- introducing a two-phase approach in aarch64_stopped_data_address, where:
- phase one handles access and read watchpoints, as before, and
- phase two handles write watchpoints, where multiple matches cause:
- return true if addr_p == null, and
- return false if addr_p != null.

This patch removes tui-out.[ch] and changes the TUI to use an ordinary

As far as I can tell, this doesn't affect behavior at all -- the TUI
tests all pass, and interactively I tried switching stack frames,

aclocal picks up the relevant include paths from AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS in
configure.ac, so there's no need to pass `-I ../config` here.
Passing `-I ../config` is actually annoying, because it makes the output
different between when the update is triggered by the maintainer mode
and when aclocal or autoreconf is ran with no special flags. The
difference in the output is due to the order of include paths being
different.

commit f18fc7e5 ("gdb, types: Resolve pointer types dynamically")
caused a regression on a test case in the AdaCore internal test suite.
The issue here is that gdb would try to resolve the type of a dynamic
pointer that happened to be NULL. In this case, the "Location address
is not set." error would end up being thrown from the DWARF expression
evaluator.
I think it makes more sense to special-case NULL pointers and not try
to resolve their target type, as that type can't really be accessed
anyway.
This patch implements this idea, and also adds the missing Ada test
case.
A Python file in my previous commit (5eb2254a1d) was formatted with
an older version of black, which gives slightly different results.
Reformat with a newer version of black. This should make our

Just because a path is an error path doesn't mean the program terminates
there if you don't ask it to. And we don't want to -- but that means

When we improved error messages in
cd393cec3a gdb, btrace: improve error messages
we cleared the original errno. When the error reason can not be explained
in a more detailed error message, and we fall back to the default error
message, it now gives Success as error.
Restore the original errno to fix that.
This started with a Red Hat bug report which can be seen here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1850710
The problem reported here was using GDB on GNU/Linux for S390, the
user stepped into JIT generated code. As they enter the JIT code GDB
would report 'PC not saved', and this same message would be reported
after each step/stepi.
Additionally, the user had 'set disassemble-next-line on', and once
they entered the JIT code this output was not displayed, nor were any
'display' directives displayed.
The user is not making use of the JIT plugin API to provide debug
information. But that's OK, they aren't expecting any source level
debug here, they are happy to use 'stepi', but the missing 'display'
directives are a problem, as is the constant 'PC not saved' (error)
message.
What is happening here is that as GDB is failing to find any debug
information for the JIT generated code, it is falling back on to the
S390 prologue unwinder to try and unwind frame #0. Unfortunately,
without being able to identify the function boundaries, the S390
prologue scanner can't help much, in fact, it doesn't even suggest an
arbitrary previous $pc value (some targets that use a link-register
will, by default, assume the link-register contains the previous $pc),
instead the S390 will just say, "sorry, I have no previous $pc value".
The result of this is that when GDB tries to find frame #1 we end
throwing an error from frame_unwind_pc (the 'PC not saved' error).
This error is not caught anywhere except at the top-level interpreter
loop, and so we end up skipping all the 'display' directive handling.
While thinking about this, I wondered, could I trigger the same error
using the Python Unwinder API? What happens if a Python unwinder
claims a frame, but then fails to provide a previous $pc value?
Turns out that exactly the same thing happens, which is great, as that
means we now have a way to reproduce this bug on any target. And so
the test included with this patch does just this. I have a Python
unwinder that claims a frame, but doesn't provide any previous
register values.
I then do two tests, first I stop in the claimed frame (i.e. frame #0
is the frame that can't be unwound), I perform a few steps, and check
the backtrace. And second, I stop in a child of the problem
frame (i.e. frame #1 is the frame that can't be unwound), and from
here I check the backtrace.
While all this is going on I have a 'display' directive in place, and
each time GDB stops I check that the display directive triggers.
Additionally, when checking the backtrace, I am checking that the
backtrace finishes with the message 'Backtrace stopped: frame did not
save the PC'.
As for the fix I chose to add a call to frame_unwind_pc directly to
get_prev_frame_always_1. Calling frame_unwind_pc will cache the
unwound $pc value, so this doesn't add much additional work as
immediately after the new frame_unwind_pc call, we call
get_prev_frame_maybe_check_cycle, which actually generates the
previous frame, which will always (I think) require a call to
frame_unwind_pc anyway.
The reason for adding the frame_unwind_pc call into
get_prev_frame_always_1, is that if the frame_unwind_pc call fails we
want to set the frames 'stop_reason', and get_prev_frame_always_1
seems to be the place where this is done, so I wanted to keep the new
stop_reason setting code next to all the existing stop_reason setting
code.
Additionally, once we enter get_prev_frame_maybe_check_cycle we
actually create the previous frame, then, if it turns out that the
previous frame can't be created we need to remove the frame .. this
seemed more complex than just making the check in
get_prev_frame_always_1.
With this fix in place the original S390 bug is fixed, and also the
test added in this commit, that uses the Python API, is also fixed.

The problem is that the clauses in the gdb_test_multiple for
"thread apply all backtrace" intent to match one line, but actually can
match more than one line, and consequently a match for one type of thread can
consume a line that was supposed to match another thread.
For instance, there's this regexp:
...
-re "\[^\n\]*syscall_task .location=SIGNAL_ALT_STACK\[^\n\]*" {
...
It's limited at the end by \[^\n\]*, meaning the match stops at the end of the
line.
But it doesn't start with a ^, and consequently can match more than one line.
The "\[^\n\]*" at the start doesn't prevent this, there's an implicit .* at
the start of each pattern, unless it's anchored using a ^.
Fix this by rewriting the regexps in a "^\r\n$hs$regexp$hs$eol" style, where:
- hs is: \[^\n\]* (horizontal space), and
- eol is (?=\r\n) (look-ahead end-of-line).
It also turned out to be necessary to drop the -lbl switch, and introduce a
corresponding explicit clause. The -lbl clause is placed ALAP, and
consequently allowed the default fail clause to trigger.

Some of these have no explicit %xmm operand(s), yet they still act SSE-
like (in leaveing bits 128 and up untouched). Hence they want similarly
diagnosing, if that was asked for.
These aren't useful, but can be encoded for their AVX forms and hence
should also be permitted for the APX surrogates. Extend the respective
conditional by a base opcode check, to restrict it to VROUND{P,S}{S,D}.
Since ar can be built defaulting to deterministic mode, tests which
expect non-deterministic behaviour need to explicitly set the U flag.
The non-deterministic member test expects SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to not be
set; this documents that. Unconditionally unsetting the variable
causes issues in test infrastructure (which expects unsetenv to only
be called on variables which are already set).

The background DWARF reader changes introduced a race when writing to
the index cache. The problem here is that constructing the
index_cache_store_context object should only happen on the main
thread, to ensure that the various value captures do not race.
This patch adds an assert to the construct to that effect, and then
arranges for this object to be constructed by the cooked_index_worker
constructor -- which is only invoked on the main thread.

I think it is cleaner for 'store' to be a method on
index_cache_store_context rather than on the global index cache
itself. This patch makes this change.
This changes index_cache_store_context to also capture the per-BFD
object when it is constructed. This is used when storing to the
cache, and this approach makes the code a little simpler.
I noticed that index_cache_store_context captures the 'enabled'
setting, but not the index cache directory. This patch makes this
change, which avoids a possible race -- with background reading, the
user could possibly change this directory at the exact moment the
writer examines the variable.
