For a long time Fedora GDB has carried an out of tree patch which
checks for memory leaks in gdb.Inferior.read_memory(). At one point
in the distant past GDB did have a memory leak in this code, but this
was first fixed in commit:
commit 655e820cf9a039ee55325d9e1f8423796d592b4b
Date: Wed Mar 28 17:38:07 2012 +0000
* python/py-inferior.c (infpy_read_memory): Remove cleanups and
explicitly free 'buffer' on exit paths. Decref 'membuf_object'
before returning.
And the code has changed a lot since then, but the leak is still
fixed. Unfortunately, this commit didn't have any associated tests.
The original Fedora test wasn't really suitable for upstream, it was
reading /proc/PID/... to figure out if there was a leak or not.
However, we already have gdb.python/py-inferior-leak.exp in upstream
GDB, which makes use of the Python tracemalloc module to check for
memory leaks in a corner of the Python API, so I figured it wouldn't
hurt to rewrite the test in the same style.
And so here is a test for a bug which was closed 12 years ago. This
detects if the gdb.Inferior.read_memory() call leaks any memory.
I've tested this by hacking gdbpy_buffer_to_membuf, replacing the last
line which currently looks like this:
return PyMemoryView_FromObject ((PyObject *) membuf_obj.get ());
and instead doing:
return PyMemoryView_FromObject ((PyObject *) membuf_obj.release ());
The use of "release" here will mean we no longer decrement the
reference count on membuf_obj before returning from the function. As
a consequence the membuf_obj will not be garbage collected. With this
hack in place the new test will fail.
The Python script in the new test is mostly a copy&paste from
py-inferior-leak.py with the core changed to do a memory read instead
of inferior creation. I did consider rewriting both tests into a
single file, maybe, py-memory-leak.py, which would make it easier to
add additional similar tests in the future. For now I've held off
doing that, but if this gets merged then I _might_ revisit this idea.
If folk feel that this new test should only be accepted if I do this
rewrite then let me know and I can get that done.
On copyright date ranges: The .exp and .py scripts are new enough for
this commit that I've dated them 2024. The .c source script is lifted
directly from the old Fedora patch, so I've retained the original 2014
start date for that file only.

Using hard byte code is not a good idea in dump file. Add a label
for intel syntax test check to avoid that.
gas/ChangeLog:
* testsuite/gas/i386/avx10_2-rounding-intel.d: Use label for
test split.
* testsuite/gas/i386/avx10_2-rounding.s: Add label to avoid
hard coding in dump file.
Some configurations (eg. i386-bsd, i386-msdos) broke with the addition
of the TLS relocation checking. The "x86_elf_abi undeclared" error
has been fixed, but "gotrel defined but not used" remains. Fix that.
Also invert the preprocessor test around lex_got to make it positive
logic and remove the LEX_AT condition which is no longer necessary.
(The only x86 config files defining LEX_AT also define TE_PE.)
libtool defaults to filtering flags passed at link-time.
This brings the filtering in GCC's 'fork' of libtool into sync with
upstream libtool commit 22a7e547e9857fc94fe5bc7c921d9a4b49c09f8e.
In particular, this now allows some harmless diagnostic flags (especially
useful for things like -Werror=odr), more optimization flags, and some
Clang-specific options.
GCC's -flto documentation mentions:
> To use the link-time optimizer, -flto and optimization options should be
> specified at compile time and during the final link. It is recommended
> that you compile all the files participating in the same link with the
> same options and also specify those options at link time.
This allows compliance with that.
* ltmain.sh (func_mode_link): Allow various flags through filter.
With gdb 15.1, python sys.exit no longer makes gdb exit:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -ex "python sys.exit(2)" -ex "print 123"; echo $?
Python Exception <class 'SystemExit'>: 2
Error occurred in Python: 2
$1 = 123

This is a change in behaviour since commit a207f6b3a3 ("Rewrite "python"
command exception handling"), first available in gdb 15.1.
This patch reverts to the old behaviour by handling PyExc_SystemExit in
gdbpy_handle_exception, such what we have instead:

GDB deprecated the commands "show/set mpx bound" in GDB 15.1, as Intel
listed Intel(R) Memory Protection Extensions (MPX) as removed in 2019.
MPX is also deprecated in gcc (since v9.1), the linux kernel (since v5.6)
and glibc (since v2.35). Let's now remove MPX support in GDB completely.
This includes the removal of:
- MPX functionality including register support
- deprecated mpx commands
- i386 and amd64 implementation of the hooks report_signal_info and
get_siginfo_type
- tests
- and pretty printer.
We keep MPX register numbers to not break compatibility with old gdbservers.

I noticed that two tests in gdb.ada/complete.exp are testing the same
thing: the completion of "p pck.inne". The second such test has this
comment:
# A fully qualified package name
I believe the intent here was to test "p pck.inner" (note the trailing
"r"). This patch makes this change.
One thing GDB always does when the inferior stops is finding out where
it's stopped at, by way of querying the value of the program counter
register.
To save a packet round trip, the remote target can send the PC
value (often alongside other frequently consulted registers such as the
stack pointer) in the stop reply packet as an "expedited register".
Test that this is actually done for the targets where gdbserver is
supposed to.
Extend the "maintenance print remote-registers" command output with an
"Expedited" column which says "yes" if the register was seen by GDB in
the last stop reply packet it received, and is left blank otherwise.
Tested for regressions on aarch64-linux-gnu native-extended-remote.
The testcase was tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu and

While reviewing "catch (...)" uses I came across:
...
for (auto &item : local)
{
try
{
item ();
}
catch (...)
{
/* Ignore exceptions in the callback. */
}
}
...
This means that when an item throws a gdb_exception_forced_quit,
the exception is ignored and following items are executed.
Fix this by handling gdb_exception_forced_quit explicity, and immediately
rethrowing it.
I wondered about ^C, and couldn't decide whether current behaviour is ok, so
I left this alone, but I made the issue explicit in the source code.
As for the "catch (...)", I think that it should let a non-gdb_exception
propagate, so I've narrowed it to "catch (const gdb_exception &)".
My rationale for this is as follows.
There seem to be a few ways that "catch (...)" is allowed in gdb:
- clean-up and rethrow (basically the SCOPE_EXIT pattern)
- catch and handle an exception from a call into an external c++ library
Since we're dealing with neither of those here, we remove the "catch (...)".

The is patch adds a new ld build-id computation mode, "xx", using
xxhash in its 128-bit mode. The patch prereqs the xxhash-devel
headers being installed, and uses the "all-inlined" model, so no
run-time or link-time library dependence exists.
The xxhash mode performs well, saving roughly 20% of total userspace
run time from an ld job over a 800MB shared library relative to sha1.
128 bits of good hash should be collision-resistant to a number of
distinct binaries that numbers in the 2**32 - 2**64 range, even if not
"crypto" level hash. Confirmations of this are in progress.

Newer Intel CPUs support recording asynchronous events in the PT trace.

Event tracing allows GDB to show information about interesting asynchronous
events when tracing with Intel PT. Subsequent patches will add support for
displaying each type of event.
Enabling event-tracing unconditionally would result in rather noisy output, as
breakpoints themselves result in interrupt events. Which is why this patch adds
a set/show command to allow the user to enable/disable event-tracing before
starting a recording. The event-tracing setting has no effect on an already
active recording. The default setting is off. As event tracing will use the
auxiliary infrastructure added by ptwrite, the user can still disable printing
events, even when event-tracing was enabled, by using the /a switch for the
record instruction-history/function-call-history commands.

So far we printed "disabled" for gaps, when we saw a ptev_enabled event that
doesn't have the resumed flag set. This is wrong, as the actual disabling
happens with ptev_disabled. So far this didn't matter, but once we have event
tracing, there can be events between a ptev_disabled and a ptev_enabled.
This patch is in preparation for that, and removes the disabled reason in
favour of a more accurate non-contiguous reason, and adjusts the string we
print accordingly.

I've recently committed two patches:
- commit 2f8cd40c37 ("[gdb/python] Use GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION more often")
- commit fbf8e4c35c ("[gdb/python] Use GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION more often")
which use the macros GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION
more often, with the goal of making things more consistent.
Having done that, I wondered if a better approach could be possible.
Consider GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION:
...
/* Use this in a 'catch' block to convert the exception to a Python
exception and return nullptr. */
#define GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION(Exception) \
do { \
gdbpy_convert_exception (Exception); \
return nullptr; \
} while (0)
...
The macro nicely codifies how python handles exceptions:
- setting an error condition using some PyErr_Set* variant, and
- returning a value implying that something went wrong
presumably with the goal that using the macro will mean not accidentally:
- forgetting to return on error, or
- returning the wrong value on error.
The problems are that:
- the macro hides control flow, specifically the return statement, and
- the macro hides the return value.
For example, when reading somewhere:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION (except);
}
...
in order to understand what this does, you have to know that the macro
returns, and that it returns nullptr.
Add a template gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception:
...
template<typename T>
[[nodiscard]] T
gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (T val, const gdb_exception &e)
{
gdbpy_convert_exception (e);
return val;
}
...
which can be used instead:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (nullptr, except);
}
...
[ Initially I tried this:
...
template<auto val>
[[nodiscard]] auto
gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (const gdb_exception &e)
{
gdbpy_convert_exception (e);
return val;
}
...
with which the usage is slightly better looking:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception<nullptr> (except);
}
...
but I ran into trouble with older gcc compilers. ]
While still a single statement, we now have it clear:
- that the statement returns,
- what value the statement returns.
[ FWIW, this could also be handled by say:
...
- GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION (except);
+ GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION_AND_RETURN_VAL (except, nullptr);
...
but I still didn't find the fact that it returns easy to spot.
Alternatively, this is the simplest form we could use:
...
return gdbpy_convert_exception (e), nullptr;
...
but the pairing would not necessarily survive a copy/paste/edit cycle. ]
Also note how making the value explicit makes it easier to check for
consistency:
...
catch (const gdb_exception &except)
{
return gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception (-1, except);
}
if (PyErr_Occurred ())
return -1;
...
given that we do use the explicit constants almost everywhere else.
Compared to using GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION, there is the burden now to specify
the return value, but I assume that this will be generally copy-pasted and
therefore present no problem.
Also, there's no longer a guarantee that there's an immediate return, but I
assume that nodiscard making sure that the return value is not silently
ignored is sufficient mitigation.
For now, re-implement GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION
in terms of gdbpy_handle_gdb_exception.
Follow-up patches will eliminate the macros.
No functional changes.

The problem is that we're calling prepare_one_comp_unit with cu == nullptr and

Fix this by bailing out for various types of dummy CUs:
...
if (new_reader.dummy_p || new_reader.comp_unit_die == nullptr

Also make sure in scan_attributes that this triggers a dwarf error:

When issuing a command "maint expand-symtabs", maintenance_expand_symtabs is
called with regexp == nullptr, and calls expand_symtabs_matching like so:
...
objfile->expand_symtabs_matching
([&] (const char *filename, bool basenames)
{
/* KISS: Only apply the regexp to the complete file name. */
return (!basenames
&& (regexp == NULL || re_exec (filename)));
},
...
To expand all symtabs gdb usually uses expand_all_symtabs (used for -readnow),
but here we try to handle it in the filename_matcher argument.
Make this more similar to how gdb usually works by using expand_all_symtabs.
A previous version of the patch instead used a nullptr filename_matcher for
the regexp == nullptr case. That approach regressed test-cases
gdb.dwarf2/dwz-unused-pu.exp and gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dummy.exp.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
Add a new test-case gdb.dwarf2/dwz-unused-pu.exp that checks that a symbol
from an unused PU is not accessible.
Passes with the relevant target boards:
- unix (using the cooked index),
- readnow (using no index at all),
- cc-with-gdb-index (using .gdb_index), and
- cc-with-debug-names (using .debug_names).
Tested on x86_64-linux.
I noticed when running test-case gdb.ada/info_exc.exp with glibc debug info
installed, that the "info exceptions" command that lists all Ada exceptions
also expands non-Ada CUs, which includes CUs in
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 and /lib64/libc.so.6.
Fix this by:
- adding a new lang_matcher parameter to the expand_symtabs_matching
function, and
- using that new parameter in the expand_symtabs_matching call in
ada_add_global_exceptions.
The new parameter is a hint, meaning implementations are free to ignore it and
expand CUs with any language. This is the case for partial symtabs, I'm not
sure whether it makes sense to implement support for this there.
Conversely, when processing a CU with language C and name "<artificial>"
(as produced by GCC LTO), the CU may not really have a single language and we
should ignore the lang_matcher. See also commit d2f6771173
("Fix 'catch exception' with -flto").
Now that we have lang_matcher available, also use it to limit name splitting
styles and symbol matchers to those applicable to the matched languages.
Without this patch we have (with a gdb build with -O0):

$ gdb -q -batch outputs/gdb.ada/info_exc/foo \
-ex start \
-ex "info exceptions" \
-ex "maint info symtabs" \
| grep -c " name "
1393
...
so ~75% of the CUs is expanded, and with this patch we have:
...
$ gdb <same-as-above>
20
...
so ~1% of the CUs is expanded.

Some compilers (e.g. the Intel compiler) may dynamically link against
dependencies. The test uses the 'set env' command to set the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to a test specific value. Update the 'set env' command
to also provide the users LD_LIBARY_PATH to gdb.

The DEBUG_S_INLINEELINES block in the .debug$S section records the line
numbers in a source file covered by inlined functions. It's similar to
the DEBUG_S_LINES block, but as it references LF_FUNC_ID types we also
need to parse it to remap the type numbers.
Since TLS relocation check is ELF specific, enable it only for ELF.

I ran the testsuite in an environment simulating a stressed system, and the
only test-cases that timed out in gdb.base were gdb.base/checkpoint.exp and
gdb.base/checkpoint-ns.exp (which includes gdb.base/checkpoints.exp).
In test-case gdb.base/checkpoint.exp there's a part where the timeout is
increased with 120 seconds (in the default case that's from 10 to 130), to
accommodate for a single command creating 600+ checkpoints.
Instead, rewrite the test to present a gdb prompt each time a checkpoint is
created, for which the default timeout is sufficient.
Also ensure that the amount of checkpoints added is exactly 600 rather than
600+.
Tested on aarch64-linux.

PR python/32163 points out that various types provided by gdb are not
added to the gdb module, so they aren't available for interactive
inspection. I think this is just an oversight.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new helper function that
both readies the type and then adds it to the appropriate module. The
patch also poisons PyType_Ready, the idea being to avoid this bug in
the future.
v2:
* Fixed a bug in original patch in gdb.Architecture registration
* Added regression test for the types mentioned in the bug

When running the testsuite in an enviroment that simulates a stressed system,
I ran into a timeout in test-case gdb.fortran/info-types.exp:
...
(gdb) info types^M
FAIL: gdb.fortran/info-types.exp: info types (timeout)
...
This is mainly due the presence of glibc debug info.
With it installed, I get:
...
$ time gdb -q -batch -x outputs/gdb.fortran/info-types/gdb.in.1 > /dev/null
real 0m35.969s
user 0m38.231s
sys 0m1.007s
...
and without:
...
$ time gdb -q -batch -x outputs/gdb.fortran/info-types/gdb.in.1 > /dev/null
real 0m4.782s
user 0m5.014s
sys 0m0.304s
...
Fix this by not running to main, which gets us:
...
$ time gdb -q -batch -x outputs/gdb.fortran/info-types/gdb.in.1 > /dev/null
real 0m0.808s
user 0m0.789s
sys 0m0.137s
...
Likewise in gdb.mi/mi-sym-info.exp and gdb.mi/mi-complete.exp.
