The original reproducer for PR28030 required use of a specific
compiler version - gcc-c++-11.1.1-3.fc34 is mentioned in the PR,
though it seems probable that other gcc versions might also be able to
reproduce the bug as well. This commit introduces a test case which,
using the DWARF assembler, provides a reproducer which is independent
of the compiler version. (Well, it'll work with whatever compilers
the DWARF assembler works with.)
To the best of my knowledge, it's also the first test case which uses
the DWARF assembler to provide debug info for a shared object. That
being the case, I provided more than the usual commentary which should
allow this case to be used as a template when a combo shared
library / DWARF assembler test case is required in the future.
I provide some details regarding the bug in a comment near the
beginning of locexpr-dml.exp.
This problem was difficult to reproduce; I found myself constantly
referring to the backtrace while trying to figure out what (else) I
might be missing while trying to create a reproducer. Below is a
partial backtrace which I include for posterity.

I'll note a few points regarding this backtrace:
Frame #1 is where the internal error occurs. It's caused by an
unhandled case for FIELD_LOC_KIND_DWARF_BLOCK. The fix for this bug
adds support for this case.
Frame #22 - it's a partial backtrace - shows that GDB is attempting to
(re)run the program. You can see the exact command sequence that was
used for reproducing this problem in the PR (at
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28030), but in a
nutshell, after starting the program and advancing to the appropriate
source line, GDB was asked to step into libstdc++; a "finish" command
was issued, returning a value. The fact that a value was returned is
very important. GDB was then used to step back into libstdc++. A
breakpoint was set on a source line in the library after which a "run"
command was issued.
Frame #19 shows a call to objfile_purge_solibs. It's aptly named.
Frame #7 is a call to the destructor for one of the objfile solibs; it
turned out to be the one for libstdc++.
Frames #6 thru #3 show various value preservation frames. If you look
at preserve_values() in gdb/value.c, the value history is preserved
first, followed by internal variables, followed by values for the
extension languages (python and guile).

The top level Makefile, the ld Makefile and others, define
CC_FOR_TARGET to be a compiler for the binutils target machine. This
is the compiler that should be used for almost all tests with C
source. There are _FOR_TARGET versions of CFLAGS, CXX, and CXXFLAGS
too. This was all supposed to work with the testsuite .exp files
using CC for the target compiler, and CC_FOR_HOST for the host
compiler, with the makefiles passing CC=$CC_FOR_TARGET and
CC_FOR_HOST=$CC to the runtest invocation.
One exception to the rule of using CC_FOR_TARGET is the native-only ld
bootstrap test, which uses the newly built ld to link a copy of
itself. Since the files being linked were created with the host
compiler, the boostrap test should use CC and CFLAGS, in case some
host compiler option provides needed libraries automatically.
However, bootstrap.exp used CC where it should have used CC_FOR_HOST.
I set about fixing that problem, then decided that playing games in
the makefiles with CC was a bad idea. Not only is it confusing, but
other dejagnu code knows about CC_FOR_TARGET. See dejagnu/target.exp.
So this patch gets rid of the makefile variable renaming and changes
all the .exp files to use the correct _FOR_TARGET variables.
CC_FOR_HOST and CFLAGS_FOR_HOST disappear. A followup patch will
correct bootstrap.exp to use CFLAGS, and a number of other things I
noticed.

.symtab_shndx section contents is an array, one entry for each symbol
in .symtab, present when the number of symbols exceeds a little less
than 64k. Since the mapping is 1-1 with symbols there is no need to
keep both dest_index and destshndx_index in elf_sym_strtab. Instead,
just make sure that the shndx pointers to the swap functions are kept
NULL when .symtab_shndx does not exist. Also, strtabcount in the
linker's elf hash table is incremented in lock-step with the output
symcount, so that can disappear too.
This defines a couple of macros used to avoid ubsan complaints about
calculations involving NULL pointers. PTR_ADD should be used in the
case where it is known that the offset is always zero with a NULL
pointer, and you'd like to know if a non-zero offset is ever used.
NPTR_ADD should be rarely used, but is defined for cases where a
non-zero offset is expected and should be ignored if the pointer is
NULL.

The problem is that the executable refers to the dwo file using path name

while the actual dwo file is at
$build/gdb/testsuite.unix/outputs/gdb.dwarf2/fission-base/fission-base.dwo.
This is caused by this trick in fission-base.S:
...
#define XSTR(s) STR(s)
#define STR(s) #s
...
.asciz XSTR(DWO) # DW_AT_GNU_dwo_name
...
and:
...
$ echo | gcc -E -dD - | grep "define unix"
...
I used this trick to avoid doing additional_flags=-DDWO=\"$dwo\", since I was
concerned that there could be quoting issues.
However, I've found other uses of this pattern, f.i. in
gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/corefile-buildid.exp:
...
additional_flags=-DSHLIB_NAME=\"$dlopen_lib\"]
...
So, fix this by:
- using additional_flags=-DDWO=\"$dwo\" and
- using plain DWO instead of XSTR(DWO)

* gdb.fortran/call-no-debug.exp: Avoid shared lib symbols for
find_mangled_name calls.
Remove breakpoint_find_if, replace its sole usage with using
all_breakpoints directly instead. At the same time, change return
types to use bool.

The .insn directive can let users use their own instructions, or
some new instruction, which haven't supported in the old binutils.
For example, if users want to use sifive cache instruction, they
cannot just write "cflush.d1.l1" in the assembly code, they should
use ".insn i SYSTEM, 0, x0, x10, -0x40". But the .insn directive
may not easy to use for some cases, and not so friendly to users.
Therefore, I believe most of the users will use ".word 0xfc050073",
to encode the instructions directly, rather than use .insn. But
once we have supported the mapping symbols, the .word directives
are marked as data, so disassembler won't dump them as instructions
as usual. I have discussed this with Kito many times, we all think
extend the .insn direcitve to support the hardcode encoding, is the
easiest way to resolve the problem. Therefore, there are two more
.insn formats are proposed as follows,
(original) .insn <type>, <operand1>, <operand2>, ...
.insn <insn-length>, <value>
.insn <value>
The <type> is string, and the <insn-length> and <value> are constants.

gdbfmt was already used for printf_filtered, so using it for
vprintf_filtered is more consistent.
As a result, all callers of vfprintf_maybe_filtered now use gdbfmt, so
the function can be simplified to assume the gdbfmt case and remove
the associated bool argument. Similary, vprintf_filtered is now a
simple wrapper around vfprintf_filtered.
The handler for 'info proc status' for native processes on FreeBSD
uses the 'j' size modifier along with uintmax_t / intmax_t casts to
output integer values for types such as off_t that are not aliases of
a basic C type such as 'int' or 'long'. printf_filtered does not
support the 'j' modifer, so this resulted in runtime errors in
practice:
(gdb) info proc stat
process 8674
Name: ls
State: T (stopped)
Parent process: 8673
Process group: 8674
Session id: 2779
Unrecognized format specifier 'j' in printf
Instead, use plongest and pulongest to generate the output strings of
these integer values.
We get this error when building GDB on some platforms. I get it using
g++-10 on Ubuntu 20.04 (installed using the distro package). It was
also reported by John Baldwin, using a clang that uses libc++.

I haven't dug to know why it does not happen everywhere, but this patch
fixes it by using the constructor to initialize the variable, rather
than the assignment operator.

Tom de Vries noticed that a patch in the DWARF scanner rewrite series
caused a regression in parallel_for_each -- it started crashing in the
case where the number of threads is 0 (there was an unchecked use of
"n-1" that was used to size an array).
He also pointed out that there were no tests of parallel_for_each.
This adds a few tests of parallel_for_each, primarily testing that
different settings for the number of threads will work. This test
catches the bug that he found in that series.
I wanted to see how many threads gdb thought it was using, but
"maint show worker-threads" only reported "unlimited". This patch
adds a show function so that it will now report the number of threads
gdb has started.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34.

Similar to ARM/AARCH64, we add mapping symbols in the symbol table,
to mark the start addresses of data and instructions. The $d means
data, and the $x means instruction. Then the disassembler uses these
symbols to decide whether we should dump data or instruction.
Consider the mapping-04 test case,
$ cat tmp.s
.text
.option norelax
.option norvc
.fill 2, 4, 0x1001
.byte 1
.word 0
.balign 8
add a0, a0, a0
.fill 5, 2, 0x2002
add a1, a1, a1
.data
.word 0x1 # No need to add mapping symbols.
.word 0x2
$ riscv64-unknown-elf-as tmp.s -o tmp.o
$ riscv64-unknown-elf-objdump -d tmp.o

0000000000000000 <.text>:

14: 20022002 .word 0x20022002 # Marked $d, .fill directive.
18: 20022002 .word 0x20022002
1c: 2002 .short 0x2002
1e: 00b585b3 add a1,a1,a1 # Marked $x.
22: 0001 nop # Section tail alignment.
24: 00000013 nop
* Use $d and $x to mark the distribution of data and instructions.
Alignments of code are recognized as instructions, since we usually
fill nops for them.
* If the alignment have odd bytes, then we cannot just fill the nops
into the spaces. We always fill an odd byte 0x00 at the start of
the spaces. Therefore, add a $d mapping symbol for the odd byte,
to tell disassembler that it isn't an instruction. The behavior
is same as Arm and Aarch64.
The elf/linux toolchain regressions all passed. Besides, I also
disable the mapping symbols internally, but use the new objudmp, the
regressions passed, too. Therefore, the new objudmp should dump
the objects corretly, even if they don't have any mapping symbols.

The current syntax of proc arange is:
...
proc arange { arange_start arange_length {comment ""} {seg_sel ""} } {
...
and a typical call looks like:
...
arange $start $len
...
This style is somewhat annoying because if you want to specify the last
parameter, you need to give the default values of all the other optional ones
before as well:
...
arange $start $len "" $seg_sel
...
Update the syntax to:
...
proc arange { options arange_start arange_length } {
parse_options {
{ comment "" }
{ seg_sel "" }
}
...
such that a typical call looks like:
...
arange {} $start $len
...
and a call using seg_sel looks like:
...
arange {
seg_sel $seg_sel
} $start $len
...
Also update proc aranges, which already has an options argument, to use the
new proc parse_options.

When comparing the sizes of the index files generated for shlib
outputs/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-zero-range/shr1.sl, I noticed a large difference
between .debug_names:
...
$ gdb -q -batch $shlib -ex "save gdb-index -dwarf-5 ."
$ du -b -h shr1.sl.debug_names shr1.sl.debug_str
61 shr1.sl.debug_names
0 shr1.sl.debug_str
...
and .gdb_index:
...
$ gdb -q -batch $shlib -ex "save gdb-index ."
$ du -b -h shr1.sl.gdb-index
8.2K shr1.sl.gdb-index
...
The problem is that the .gdb_index contains a non-empty symbol table with only
empty entries.
Fix this by making the symbol table empty, such that we have instead:
...
$ du -b -h shr1.sl.gdb-index
184 shr1.sl.gdb-index
...

Before commit 5ef670d81f "[gdb/testsuite] Add dummy start and end CUs in
dwarf assembly" we had in exec outputs/gdb.dlang/watch-loc/watch-loc a D
compilation unit at offset 0xc7:
...
Compilation Unit @ offset 0xc7:
Length: 0x4c (32-bit)
Version: 4
Abbrev Offset: 0x64
Pointer Size: 8
<0><d2>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
<d3> DW_AT_language : 19 (D)
...
with a corresponding .debug_aranges entry:
...
Offset into .debug_info: 0xc7
Pointer Size: 4
Segment Size: 0
Address Length
004004a7 0000000b
00000000 00000000
...
After that commit we have a dummy CU at offset 0xc7 and the D compilation unit
at offset 0xd2:
...
Compilation Unit @ offset 0xc7:
Length: 0x7 (32-bit)
Version: 4
Abbrev Offset: 0x64
Pointer Size: 8
Compilation Unit @ offset 0xd2:
Length: 0x4c (32-bit)
Version: 4
Abbrev Offset: 0x65
Pointer Size: 8
<0><dd>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
<de> DW_AT_language : 19 (D)
...
while the .debug_aranges entry still points to 0xc7.
The problem is that the test-case uses a hack (quoting from
commit 75f06e9dc5):
...
[ Note: this is a non-trivial test-case. The file watch-loc-dw.S contains a
.debug_info section, but not an .debug_aranges section or any actual code.
The file watch-loc.c contains code and a .debug_aranges section, but no other
debug section. So, the intent for the .debug_aranges section in watch-loc.c
is to refer to a compilation unit in the .debug_info section in
watch-loc-dw.S. ]
...
and adding the dummy CU caused that hack to stop working.
Fix this by moving the generation of .debug_aranges from watch-loc.c to
watch-loc.exp, such that we have:
...
Offset into .debug_info: 0xd2
Pointer Size: 4
Segment Size: 0
Address Length
004004a7 0000000b
00000000 00000000

Add a proc aranges such that we can generate .debug_aranges sections in dwarf
assembly using:

cu { label cu_label } {

aranges {} cu_label {
arange $addr $len [<comment>] [$segment_selector]
}
...
Tested on x86_64-linux.
We can use current dwarf assembly infrastructure to declare a label that marks
the start of the CU header:
...
declare_labels header_start_cu_a
_section ".debug_info"
header_start_cu_a : cu {} {
}
_section ".debug_info"
header_start_cu_b : cu {} {
}
...
on the condition that we switch to the .debug_info section before, which makes
this style of use fragile.
Another way to achieve the same is to use the label as generated by the cu
proc itself:
...
variable _cu_label
cu {} {
}
set header_start_cu_a $_cu_label
cu {} {
}
set header_start_cu_b $_cu_label
...
but again that seems fragile given that adding a new CU inbetween will
silently result in the wrong value for the label.
Add a label option to proc cu such that we can simply do:
...
cu { label header_start_cu_a } {
}
cu { label header_start_cu_b } {
}
...
