The standard layout of the XSAVE extended state area consists of three
regions. The first 512 bytes (legacy region) match the layout of the
FXSAVE instruction including floating point registers, MMX registers,
and SSE registers. The next 64 bytes (XSAVE header) contains a header
with a fixed layout. The final region (extended region) contains zero
or more optional state components. Examples of these include the
upper 128 bits of YMM registers for AVX.
These optional state components generally have an
architecturally-fixed size, but they are not assigned architectural
offsets in the extended region. Instead, processors provide
additional CPUID leafs describing the size and offset of each
component in the "standard" layout for a given CPU. (There is also a
"compact" format which uses an alternate layout, but existing OS's
currently export the "standard" layout when exporting XSAVE data via
ptrace() and core dumps.)
To date, GDB has assumed the layout used on current Intel processors
for state components in the extended region and hardcoded those
offsets in the tables in i387-tdep.c and i387-fp.cc. However, this
fails on recent AMD processors which use a different layout.
Specifically, AMD Zen3 and later processors do not leave space for the
MPX register set in between the AVX and AVX512 register sets.
To rectify this, add an x86_xsave_layout structure which contains the
total size of the XSAVE extended state area as well as the offset of
each known optional state component.
Subsequent commits will modify XSAVE parsing in both gdb and gdbserver
to use x86_xsave_layout.

While GDB is still C++11, lets add a gdb::make_unique template
function that can be used to create std::unique_ptr objects, just like
the C++14 std::make_unique.
If GDB is being compiled with a C++14 compiler then the new
gdb::make_unique function will delegate to the std::make_unique. I
checked with gcc, and at -O1 and above gdb::make_unique will be
optimised away completely in this case.
If C++14 (or later) becomes our minimum, then it will be easy enough
to go through the code and replace gdb::make_unique with
std::make_unique later on.
I've make use of this function in all the places I think this can
easily be used, though I'm sure I've probably missed some.
Should be no user visible changes after this commit.

unrelocated_addr is currently defined in symtab.h, but in order to
avoid having to include that in more places, I wanted to move the type
elsewhere. I considered defs.h, but it seemed reasonable to have it
next to CORE_ADDR, which is what this patch does.
This commit adds a new format for the printf and dprintf commands:
'%V'. This new format takes any GDB expression and formats it as a
string, just as GDB would for a 'print' command, e.g.:
(gdb) print a1
$a = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20}
(gdb) printf "%V\n", a1
{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20}
(gdb)
It is also possible to pass the same options to %V as you might pass
to the print command, e.g.:
(gdb) print -elements 3 -- a1
$4 = {2, 4, 6...}
(gdb) printf "%V[-elements 3]\n", a1
{2, 4, 6...}
(gdb)
This new feature would effectively replace an existing feature of GDB,
the $_as_string builtin convenience function. However, the
$_as_string function has a few problems which this new feature solves:
1. $_as_string doesn't currently work when the inferior is not
running, e.g:
(gdb) printf "%s", $_as_string(a1)
You can't do that without a process to debug.
(gdb)
The reason for this is that $_as_string returns a value object with
string type. When we try to print this we call value_as_address,
which ends up trying to push the string into the inferior's address
space.
Clearly we could solve this problem, the string data exists in GDB, so
there's no reason why we have to push it into the inferior, but this
is an existing problem that would need solving.
2. $_as_string suffers from the fact that C degrades arrays to
pointers, e.g.:
(gdb) printf "%s\n", $_as_string(a1)
0x404260 <a1>
(gdb)
The implementation of $_as_string is passed a gdb.Value object that is
a pointer, it doesn't understand that it's actually an array. Solving
this would be harder than issue #1 I think. The whole array to
pointer transformation is part of our expression evaluation. And in
most cases this is exactly what we want. It's not clear to me how
we'd (easily) tell GDB that we didn't want this reduction in _some_
cases. But I'm sure this is solvable if we really wanted to.
3. $_as_string is a gdb.Function sub-class, and as such is passed
gdb.Value objects. There's no super convenient way to pass formatting
options to $_as_string. By this I mean that the new %V feature
supports print formatting options. Ideally, we might want to add this
feature to $_as_string, we might imagine it working something like:
(gdb) printf "%s\n", $_as_string(a1,
elements = 3,
array_indexes = True)
where the first item is the value to print, while the remaining
options are the print formatting options. However, this relies on
Python calling syntax, which isn't something that convenience
functions handle. We could possibly rely on strictly positional
arguments, like:
(gdb) printf "%s\n", $_as_string(a1, 3, 1)
But that's clearly terrible as there's far more print formatting
options, and if you needed to set the 9th option you'd need to fill in
all the previous options.
And right now, the only way to pass these options to a gdb.Function is
to have GDB first convert them all into gdb.Value objects, which is
really overkill for what we want.
The new %V format solves all these problems: the string is computed
and printed entirely on the GDB side, we are able to print arrays as
actual arrays rather than pointers, and we can pass named format
arguments.
Finally, the $_as_string is sold in the manual as allowing users to
print the string representation of flag enums, so given:
enum flags
{
FLAG_A = (1 << 0),
FLAG_B = (1 << 1),
FLAG_C = (1 << 1)
};
enum flags ff = FLAG_B;
We can:
(gdb) printf "%s\n", $_as_string(ff)
FLAG_B
This works just fine with %V too:
(gdb) printf "%V\n", ff
FLAG_B
So all functionality of $_as_string is replaced by %V. I'm not
proposing to remove $_as_string, there might be users currently
depending on it, but I am proposing that we don't push $_as_string in
the documentation.
As %V is a feature of printf, GDB's dprintf breakpoints naturally gain
access to this feature too. dprintf breakpoints can be operated in
three different styles 'gdb' (use GDB's printf), 'call' (call a
function in the inferior), or 'agent' (perform the dprintf on the
remote).
The use of '%V' will work just fine when dprintf-style is 'gdb'.
When dprintf-style is 'call' the format string and arguments are
passed to an inferior function (printf by default). In this case GDB
doesn't prevent use of '%V', but the documentation makes it clear that
support for '%V' will depend on the inferior function being called.
I chose this approach because the current implementation doesn't place
any restrictions on the format string when operating in 'call' style.
That is, the user might already be calling a function that supports
custom print format specifiers (maybe including '%V') so, I claim, it
would be wrong to block use of '%V' in this case. The documentation
does make it clear that users shouldn't expect this to "just work"
though.
When dprintf-style is 'agent' then GDB does no support the use of
'%V' (right now). This is handled at the point when GDB tries to
process the format string and send the dprintf command to the remote,
here's an example:
Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.x...
(gdb) dprintf call_me, "%V", a1
Dprintf 1 at 0x401152: file /tmp/hello.c, line 8.
(gdb) set sysroot /
(gdb) target remote | gdbserver --once - /tmp/hello.x

(gdb) set dprintf-style agent
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Unrecognized format specifier 'V' in printf
Command aborted.
(gdb)
This is exactly how GDB would handle any other invalid format
specifier, for example:
Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.x...
(gdb) dprintf call_me, "%Q", a1
Dprintf 1 at 0x401152: file /tmp/hello.c, line 8.
(gdb) set sysroot /

The error message isn't the greatest, but improving that can be put
off for another day I hope.

This is because the operator* method of the basic_safe_iterator iterator
wrapper returns a value_type. So, even if the method of the underlying
iterator (breakpoint_iterator, an intrusive_list iterator) returns a
`breakpoint &`, the method of the wrapper returns a `breakpoint`.
I think it would make sense for iterator wrappers such as
basic_safe_iterator to return the exact same thing as the iterator they
wrap. At least, it fixes my problem.

the reference_to_pointer_iterator wrapper does not. I'm not to sure why
the compiler chooses the overload of __advance that accepts a

be decremented, but adding those operators seems like the right thing to
do in any case, for completeness.

The error message does not make it clear in the context of which enum
flag this fails (i.e. what is T in this context), but it doesn't really
matter, we have similar warning/errors for many of them, if we let the

clang is right that the value -1 is invalid for the enum type we cast -1
to. However, we do need this expression in order to select an integer
type with the appropriate signedness. That is, with the same signedness
as the underlying type of the enum.
I first wondered if that was really needed, if we couldn't use
std::underlying_type for that. It turns out that the comment just above
says:
/* Note that std::underlying_type<enum_type> is not what we want here,
since that returns unsigned int even when the enum decays to signed
int. */
I was surprised, because std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<enum_type>>
returns the right thing. So I tried replacing all this with
std::underlying_type, see if that would work. Doing so causes some

This is a bit hard to decode, but basically enumerations have the
following funny property that they decay into a signed int, even if
their implicit underlying type is unsigned. This code:
enum A {};
enum B {};
int main() {
std::cout << std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<A>::type>::value
<< std::endl;
std::cout << std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<B>::type>::value
<< std::endl;
auto result = true ? A() : B();
std::cout << std::is_signed<decltype(result)>::value << std::endl;
}
produces:
0
0
1
So, the "CHECK_VALID" above checks that this property works for enum flags the
same way as it would if you were using their underlying enum types. And
somehow, changing integer_for_size to use std::underlying_type breaks that.
Since the current code does what we want, and I don't see any way of doing it
differently, ignore -Wenum-constexpr-conversion around it.

This commit adds a new exception 'gdb_exception_forced_quit', reason
code 'REASON_FORCED_QUIT', return mask 'RETURN_MASK_FORCED_QUIT', and
a wrapper for throwing the exception, throw_forced_quit().
The addition of this exception plus supporting code will allow us to
recognize that a SIGTERM has been received by GDB and then propagate
recognition of that fact to the upper levels of GDB where it can be
correctly handled. At the moment, when GDB receives a SIGTERM, it
will attempt to exit via a series of calls from the QUIT checking
code. However, before it can exit, it must do various cleanups, such
as killing or detaching all inferiors. Should these cleanups be
attempted while GDB is executing very low level code, such as reading
target memory from within ps_xfer_memory(), it can happen that some of
GDB's state is out of sync with regard to the cleanup code's
expectations. In the case just mentioned, it's been observed that
inferior_ptid and the current_thread_ are not in sync; this triggers
an assert / internal error.
This commit only introduces the exception plus supporting machinery;
changes which use this new exception are in later commits in this
series.

I've long wanted to remove 'struct buffer', and thanks to Simon's
earlier patch, I was finally able to do so. My feeling has been that
gdb already has several decent structures available for growing
strings: std::string of course, but also obstack and even objalloc
from BFD and dyn-string from libiberty. The previous patches in this
series removed all the uses of struct buffer, so this one can remove
the code and the remaining #includes.
While investigating something else, I noticed some weird code in
agent_run_command (use of memcpy rather than strcpy). Then I noticed
that 'cmd' is used as both an in and out parameter, despite being
const.
Casting away const like this is bad. This patch removes the const and
fixes the memcpy. I also added a static assert to assure myself that
the code in gdbserver is correct -- gdbserver is passing its own
buffer directly to agent_run_command.

In PR gdb/29854, Simon pointed out that it would be good to be able to
use C-c when the DWARF cooked index is waiting for finalization. The
idea here is to be able to interrupt a command like "break" -- not to
stop the finalization process itself, which runs in a worker thread.
This patch implements this idea, by changing the index wait functions
to, by default, allow a quit. Polling is done, because there doesn't
seem to be a better way to interrupt a wait on a std::future.
For v2, I realized that the thread compatibility code in thread-pool.h
also needed an update.

A following patch will want to declare variables of the same type as
some ptid_t components. To make that easy (and avoid harcoding those
types everywhere), define some type definitions in the ptid_t struct for
each of them. Use them throughout ptid.h.
I initially used pid_t, lwp_t and tid_t, but there is the risk of some
system defining the pid_t type using a macro instead of a typedef, which
would break things. So, use the _type suffix instead.

Both static_cast and dynamic_cast handle nullptr (they return nullptr),
so I think checked_static_cast should too. This will allow doing a null
check after a checked_static_cast:
cooked_index_vector *table
= (gdb::checked_static_cast<cooked_index_vector *>
(per_bfd->index_table.get ()));
if (table != nullptr)
return;

This commit introduces shared infrastructure that can be used to
implement enum_flags -> to_string functions. With this, if we want to
support converting a given enum_flags specialization to string, we
just need to implement a function that provides the enumerator->string
mapping, like so:
enum some_flag
{
SOME_FLAG1 = 1 << 0,
SOME_FLAG2 = 1 << 1,
SOME_FLAG3 = 1 << 2,
};
DEF_ENUM_FLAGS_TYPE (some_flag, some_flags);
static std::string
to_string (some_flags flags)
{
static constexpr some_flags::string_mapping mapping[] = {
MAP_ENUM_FLAG (SOME_FLAG1),
MAP_ENUM_FLAG (SOME_FLAG2),
MAP_ENUM_FLAG (SOME_FLAG3),
};
return flags.to_string (mapping);
}
.. and then to_string(SOME_FLAG2 | SOME_FLAG3) produces a string like
"0x6 [SOME_FLAG2 SOME_FLAG3]".
If we happen to forget to update the mapping array when we introduce a
new enumerator, then the string representation will pretty-print the
flags it knows about, and then the leftover flags in hex (one single
number). For example, if we had missed mapping SOME_FLAG2 above, we'd
end up with:
to_string(SOME_FLAG2 | SOME_FLAG3) => "0x6 [SOME_FLAG2 0x4]");
Other than in the unit tests included, no actual usage of the
functionality is added in this commit.

I found that parallel_for_each would submit empty tasks to the thread
pool. For example, this can happen if the number of tasks is smaller
than the number of available threads. In the DWARF reader, this
resulted in the cooked index containing empty sub-indices. This patch
arranges to instead shrink the result vector and process the trailing
entries in the calling thread.
GCC recently added support for the Windows thread model, enabling
libstdc++ to support Windows natively. However, this supporrt
requires a version of Windows later than the minimum version that is
supported by GDB.
PR build/29966 points out that the GDB configure test for std::thread
does not work in this situation, because _WIN32_WINNT is not defined
in test program, and so <thread> seems to be fine.
This patch is an attempt to fix the problem, by using the same setting
for _WIN32_WINNT at configure time as is used at build time.
I don't have access to one of the older systems so I don't think I can
truly test this. I did do a mingw cross build, though. I'm going to
ask the bug reporter to test it.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29966
I spotted a problem with scoped_debug_start_end's move constructor.
When constructing a scoped_debug_start_end through it, it doesn't
disable the moved-from object, meaning there are now two objects that
will do the side-effects of decrementing the debug_print_depth global
and printing the "end" message. Decrementing the debug_print_depth
global twice is actually problematic, because the increments and
decrements get out of sync, meaning we should hit this assertion, in
theory:
gdb_assert (debug_print_depth > 0);
However, in practice, we don't see that. This is because despite the
move constructor being required for this to compile:
template<typename PT>
static inline scoped_debug_start_end<PT &> ATTRIBUTE_NULL_PRINTF (6, 7)
make_scoped_debug_start_end (PT &&pred, const char *module, const char *func,
const char *start_prefix,
const char *end_prefix, const char *fmt, ...)
{
va_list args;
va_start (args, fmt);
auto res = scoped_debug_start_end<PT &> (pred, module, func, start_prefix,
end_prefix, fmt, args);
va_end (args);
return res;
}
... it is never actually called, because compilers elide the move
constructors all the way (the scoped_debug_start_end gets constructed
directly in the instance of the top-level caller). To confirm this, I
built GDB with -fno-elide-constructors, and now I see it:

source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
Add a version of buffer_xml_printf (defined in gdbsupport/buffer.{c,h})
that appends to an std::string, rather than a struct buffer. Call it
"string" rather than "buffer" since it operates on an std::string rather
than a buffer. And call it "appendf" rather than "printf", since it
appends to and does not replace the string's content. This mirrors
string_appendf.
Place the new version in gdbsupport/xml-utils.h.
The code is a direct copy of buffer_xml_printf. The old version is
going to disappear at some point, which is why I didn't do any effort to

After the previous commit converted symbol-lookup debug to use the new
debug scheme, this commit adds SYMBOL_LOOKUP_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT.
The previous commit didn't add SYMBOL_LOOKUP_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT
because symbol-lookup debug is controlled by an 'unsigned int' rather
than a 'bool' control variable, we use the numeric value to offer
different levels of verbosity for symbol-lookup debug.
The *_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT mechanism currently relies on capturing
a reference to the bool control variable, and evaluating the variable
both on entry, and at exit, this is done in the scoped_debug_start_end
class (see gdbsupport/common-debug.h).
This commit templates scoped_debug_start_end so that the class can
accept either a 'bool &' or an invokable object, e.g. a lambda
function, or a function pointer.
The existing scoped_debug_start_end and scoped_debug_enter_exit macros
in common-debug.h are updated to support scoped_debug_enter_exit being
templated, however, nothing outside of common-debug.h needs to change.
I've then added SYMBOL_LOOKUP_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT in symtab.h, and
added a couple of token uses in symtab.c. I didn't want to add too
much in this first commit, this is really about updating
common-debug.h to support this new functionality.
Within symtab.h I created a couple of global functions that can be
used to query the status of the symbol_lookup_debug control variable,
these functions are then used within the two existing macros:
symbol_lookup_debug_printf
symbol_lookup_debug_printf_v
and also in the new SYMBOL_LOOKUP_SCOPED_DEBUG_ENTER_EXIT macro.
valgrind reports a leak when assigning a gdb_environ to another gdb_environ.
The memory allocated for the target gdb_environ env variables is not released.
The gdb_environ selftest reproduces the leak (see below).
Fix the leak by clearing the target gdb_environ before std::move-ing the
members.

Add a new convenience variable $_inferior_thread_count that contains
the number of live (non-exited) threads in the current inferior. This
can be used in command scripts, or breakpoint conditions, etc to
adjust the behaviour for multi-threaded inferiors.
This value is only stable in all-stop mode. In non-stop mode, where
new threads can be started, and existing threads exit, at any time,
this convenience variable can give a different value each time it is
evaluated.
Commit 02d04eac "Use strwinerror in gdb/windows-nat.c" also moves
strwinerror() under the USE_WIN32API conditional, which is not defined

non-POSIX and MiNGW and WinSock...)
Also enable the declaration and definition of strwinerror() when
__CYGWIN__ is defined.
I would like to add more code to nat/linux-osdata.c that reads an entire
file from /proc or /sys and processes it as a string afterwards. I
would like to avoid duplicating the somewhat error-prone code that reads

that does that.
Add read_file_to_string to gdbsupport/filestuff.{c,h}, and make
linux_common_core_of_thread use it. I want to make the new function
return an std::string, and because strtok doesn't play well with
std::string (it requires a `char *`, std::string::c_str returns a `const
char *`), change linux_common_core_of_thread to use std::string methods
instead.

Currently, every internal_error call must be passed __FILE__/__LINE__
explicitly, like:
internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__, "foo %d", var);
The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.
The non-mechanical changes are in gdbsupport/errors.h,
gdbsupport/gdb_assert.h, and gdb/gdbarch.py.

Converting from free-form macros to an enum gives a bit of type-safety.
This caught places where we would assign host error numbers to what
should contain a target fileio error number, for instance in
target_fileio_pread.
I added the FILEIO_SUCCESS enumerator, because
remote.c:remote_hostio_parse_result initializes the remote_errno output
variable to 0. It seems better to have an explicit enumerator than to
assign a value for which there is no enumerator. I considered
initializing this variable to FILEIO_EUNKNOWN instead, such that if the
remote side replies with an error and omits the errno value, we'll get
an errno that represents an error instead of 0 (which reprensents no
error). But it's not clear what the consequences of that change would
be, so I prefer to err on the side of caution and just keep the existing
behavior (there is no intended change in behavior with this patch).
Note that remote_hostio_parse_resul still reads blindly what the remote
side sends as a target errno into this variable, so we can still end up
with a nonsensical value here. It's not good, but out of the scope of
this patch.
Convert host_to_fileio_error and fileio_errno_to_host to return / accept
a fileio_error instead of an int, and cascade the change in the whole
chain that uses that.

The problem is this line in path_join:
gdb_assert (strlen (path) == 0 || !IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH (path));
... where `path` is "x". IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH eventually calls
HAS_DRIVE_SPEC_1:
#define HAS_DRIVE_SPEC_1(dos_based, f) \
((f)[0] && ((f)[1] == ':') && (dos_based))
This macro accesses indices 0 and 1 of the input string. However, `f`
is a string_view of length 1, so it's incorrect to try to access index
1. We know that the string_view's underlying object is a null-terminated
string, so in practice there's no harm. But as far as the string_view
is concerned, index 1 is considered out of bounds.
This patch makes the easy fix, that is to change the path_join parameter
from a vector of to a vector of `const char *`. Another solution would
be to introduce a non-standard gdb::cstring_view class, which would be a
view over a null-terminated string. With that class, it would be
correct to access index 1, it would yield the NUL character. If there
is interest in having this class (it has been mentioned a few times in
the past) I can do it and use it here.
This was found by running tests such as gdb.ada/arrayidx.exp, which
produce 1-char long filenames, so adding a new test is not necessary.

Commit 171fba11ab ("Make GDBserver abort on internal error in development mode")

Since the CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES value is used in the Makefile, macro
substitution must have a Makefile format but commit 171fba11ab used shell
format "$srcdir/../bfd/development.sh".
This commit fixes this issue by substituting "$srcdir" (shell format) to
