This file describes annotations in GDB, the GNU symbolic debugger.
|
|
Annotations are designed to interface GDB to graphical user interfaces
|
|
or other similar programs which want to interact with GDB at a
|
|
relatively high level.
|

@chapter What is an Annotation?
|
|
|
|
To produce annotations, start GDB with the @code{--annotate=2} option.
|
|
|
|
Annotations start with a newline character, two @samp{control-z}
|
|
characters, and the name of the annotation. If there is no additional
|
|
information associated with this annotation, the name of the annotation
|
|
is followed immediately by a newline. If there is additional
|
|
information, the name of the annotation is followed by a space, the
|
|
additional information, and a newline. The additional information
|
|
cannot contain newline characters.
|
|
|
|
Any output not beginning with a newline and two @samp{control-z}
|
|
characters denotes literal output from GDB. Currently there is no need
|
|
for GDB to output a newline followed by two @samp{control-z} characters,
|
|
but if there was such a need, the annotations could be extended with an
|
|
@samp{escape} annotation which means those three characters as output.
|
|
|
|
A simple example of starting up GDB with annotations is:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
$ gdb --annotate=2
|
|
GDB is free software and you are welcome to distribute copies of it
|
|
under certain conditions; type "show copying" to see the conditions.
|
|
There is absolutely no warranty for GDB; type "show warranty" for details.

|
|
^Z^Zprompt
|
|
quit
|
|
|
|
^Z^Zpost-prompt
|
|
$
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Here @samp{quit} is input to GDB; the rest is output from GDB. The three
|
|
lines beginning @samp{^Z^Z} (where @samp{^Z} denotes a @samp{control-z}
|
|
character) are annotations; the rest is output from GDB.
|
|
|
|
@node Server
|
|
@chapter The Server Prefix
|
|
|
|
To issue a command to GDB without affecting certain aspects of the state
|
|
which is seen by users, prefix it with @samp{server }. This means that
|
|
this command will not affect the command history, nor will it affect
|
|
GDB's notion of which command to repeat if @key{RET} is pressed on a
|
|
line by itself.
|
|
|
|
The server prefix does not affect the recording of values into the value
|
|
history; to print a value without recording it into the value history,
|
|
use the @code{output} command instead of the @code{print} command.
|
|
|
|
@node Values
|
|
@chapter Values
|
|
|
|
When a value is printed in various contexts, GDB uses annotations to
|
|
delimit the value from the surrounding text.
|
|
|
|
@findex value-history-begin
|
|
@findex value-history-value
|
|
@findex value-history-end
|
|
If a value is printed using @code{print} and added to the value history,
|
|
the annotation looks like
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zvalue-history-begin @var{history-number} @var{value-flags}
|
|
@var{history-string}
|
|
^Z^Zvalue-history-value
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zvalue-history-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{history-number} is the number it is getting in the value
|
|
history, @var{history-string} is a string, such as @samp{$5 = }, which
|
|
introduces the value to the user, @var{the-value} is the output
|
|
corresponding to the value itself, and @var{value-flags} is @samp{*} for
|
|
a value which can be dereferenced and @samp{-} for a value which cannot.
|
|
|
|
@findex value-begin
|
|
@findex value-end
|
|
If the value is not added to the value history (it is an invalid float
|
|
or it is printed with the @code{output} command), the annotation is similar:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zvalue-begin @var{value-flags}
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zvalue-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@findex arg-begin
|
|
@findex arg-name-end
|
|
@findex arg-value
|
|
@findex arg-end
|
|
When GDB prints an argument to a function (for example, in the output
|
|
from the @code{backtrace} command), it annotates it as follows:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zarg-begin
|
|
@var{argument-name}
|
|
^Z^Zarg-name-end
|
|
@var{separator-string}
|
|
^Z^Zarg-value @var{value-flags}
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zarg-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{argument-name} is the name of the argument,
|
|
@var{separator-string} is text which separates the name from the value
|
|
for the user's benefit (such as @samp{=}), and @var{value-flags} and
|
|
@var{the-value} have the same meanings as in a
|
|
@code{value-history-begin} annotation.
|
|
|
|
@findex field-begin
|
|
@findex field-name-end
|
|
@findex field-value
|
|
@findex field-end
|
|
When printing a structure, GDB annotates it as follows:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zfield-begin @var{value-flags}
|
|
@var{field-name}
|
|
^Z^Zfield-name-end
|
|
@var{separator-string}
|
|
^Z^Zfield-value
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zfield-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{field-name} is the name of the field, @var{separator-string}
|
|
is text which separates the name from the value for the user's benefit
|
|
(such as @samp{=}), and @var{value-flags} and @var{the-value} have the
|
|
same meanings as in a @code{value-history-begin} annotation.
|
|
|
|
When printing an array, GDB annotates it as follows:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zarray-section-begin @var{array-index} @var{value-flags}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{array-index} is the index of the first element being
|
|
annotated and @var{value-flags} has the same meaning as in a
|
|
@code{value-history-begin} annotation. This is followed by any number
|
|
of elements, where is element can be either a single element:
|
|
|
|
@findex elt
|
|
@example
|
|
@samp{,} @var{whitespace} ; @r{omitted for the first element}
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zelt
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
or a repeated element
|
|
|
|
@findex elt-rep
|
|
@findex elt-rep-end
|
|
@example
|
|
@samp{,} @var{whitespace} ; @r{omitted for the first element}
|
|
@var{the-value}
|
|
^Z^Zelt-rep @var{number-of-repititions}
|
|
@var{repetition-string}
|
|
^Z^Zelt-rep-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
In both cases, @var{the-value} is the output for the value of the
|
|
element and @var{whitespace} can contain spaces, tabs, and newlines. In
|
|
the repeated case, @var{number-of-repititons} is the number of
|
|
consecutive array elements which contain that value, and
|
|
@var{repetition-string} is a string which is designed to convey to the
|
|
user that repitition is being depicted.
|
|
|
|
@findex array-section-end
|
|
Once all the array elements have been output, the array annotation is
|
|
ended with
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zarray-section-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@node Frames
|
|
@chapter Frames
|
|
|
|
Whenever GDB prints a frame, it annotates it. For example, this applies
|
|
to frames printed when GDB stops, output from commands such as
|
|
@code{backtrace} or @code{up}, etc.
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-begin
|
|
The frame annotation begins with
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-begin @var{level} @var{address}
|
|
@var{level-string}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{level} is the number of the frame (0 is the innermost frame,
|
|
and other frames have positive numbers), @var{address} is the address of
|
|
the code executing in that frame, and @var{level-string} is a string
|
|
designed to convey the level to the user. @var{address} is in the form
|
|
@samp{0x} followed by one or more lowercase hex digits (note that this
|
|
does not depend on the language). The frame ends with
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-end
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Between these annotations is the main body of the frame, which can
|
|
consist of
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item
|
|
@findex function-call
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zfunction-call
|
|
@var{function-call-string}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{function-call-string} is text designed to convey to the user
|
|
that this frame is associated with a function call made by GDB to a
|
|
function in the program being debugged.
|
|
|
|
@item
|
|
@findex signal-handler-caller
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zsignal-handler-caller
|
|
@var{signal-handler-caller-string}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{signal-handler-caller-string} is text designed to convey to
|
|
the user that this frame is associated with whatever mechanism is used
|
|
by this operating system to call a signal handler (it is the frame which
|
|
calls the signal handler, not the frame for the signal handler itself).
|
|
|
|
@item
|
|
A normal frame.
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-address
|
|
@findex frame-address-end
|
|
This can optionally (depending on whether this is thought of as
|
|
interesting information for the user to see) begin with
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-address
|
|
@var{address}
|
|
^Z^Zframe-address-end
|
|
@var{separator-string}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{address} is the address executing in the frame (the same
|
|
address as in the @code{frame-begin} annotation, but printed in a form
|
|
which is intended for user consumption---in particular, the syntax varies
|
|
depending on the language), and @var{separator-string} is a string
|
|
intended to separate this address from what follows for the user's
|
|
benefit.
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-function-name
|
|
@findex frame-args
|
|
Then comes
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-function-name
|
|
@var{function-name}
|
|
^Z^Zframe-args
|
|
@var{arguments}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{function-name} is the name of the function executing in the
|
|
frame, or @samp{??} if not known, and @var{arguments} are the arguments
|
|
to the frame, with parentheses around them (each argument is annotated
|
|
individually as well @pxref{Values}).
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-source-begin
|
|
@findex frame-source-file
|
|
@findex frame-source-file-end
|
|
@findex frame-source-line
|
|
@findex frame-source-end
|
|
If source information is available, a reference to it is then printed:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-source-begin
|
|
@var{source-intro-string}
|
|
^Z^Zframe-source-file
|
|
@var{filename}
|
|
^Z^Zframe-source-file-end
|
|
:
|
|
^Z^Zframe-source-line
|
|
@var{line-number}
|
|
^Z^Zframe-source-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{source-intro-string} separates for the user's benefit the
|
|
reference from the text which precedes it, @var{filename} is the name of
|
|
the source file, and @var{line-number} is the line number within that
|
|
file (the first line is line 1).
|
|
|
|
@findex frame-where
|
|
If GDB prints some information about where the frame is from (which
|
|
library, which load segment, etc.; currently only done on the RS/6000),
|
|
it is annotated with
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zframe-where
|
|
@var{information}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Then, if source is to actually be displayed for this frame (for example,
|
|
this is not true for output from the @code{backtrace} command), then a
|
|
@code{source} annotation (@pxref{Source}) is displayed. Unlike most
|
|
annotations, this is output instead of the normal text which would be
|
|
output, not in addition.
|

|
|
@findex display-expression
|
|
@findex display-expression-end
|
|
@findex display-value
|
|
@findex display-end
|
|
When GDB is told to display something using the @code{display} command,
|
|
the results of the display are annotated:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zdisplay-begin
|
|
@var{number}
|
|
^Z^Zdisplay-number-end
|
|
@var{number-separator}
|

|
|
@var{expression-separator}
|
|
^Z^Zdisplay-value
|
|
@var{value}
|
|
^Z^Zdisplay-end
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{number} is the number of the display, @var{number-separator}
|
|
is intended to separate the number from what follows for the user,
|
|
@var{format} includes information such as the size, format, or other
|
|
information about how the value is being displayed, @var{expression} is
|
|
the expression being displayed, @var{expression-separator} is intended
|
|
to separate the expression from the text that follows for the user,
|
|
and @var{value} is the actual value being displayed.
|
|
|
|
@node Prompting
|
|
@chapter Annotation for GDB Input
|
|
|
|
When GDB prompts for input, it annotates this fact so it is possible
|
|
to know when to send output, when the output from a given command is
|
|
over, etc.
|
|
|
|
Different kinds of input each have a different @dfn{input type}. Each
|
|
input type has three annotations: a @code{pre-} annotation, which
|
|
denotes the beginning of any prompt which is being output, a plain
|
|
annotation, which denotes the end of the prompt, and then a @code{post-}
|
|
annotation which denotes the end of any echo which may (or may not) be
|
|
associated with the input. For example, the @code{prompt} input type
|
|
features the following annotations:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zpre-prompt
|
|
^Z^Zprompt
|
|
^Z^Zpost-prompt
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
The input types are
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@findex pre-prompt
|
|
@findex prompt
|
|
@findex post-prompt
|
|
@item prompt
|
|
When GDB is prompting for a command (the main GDB prompt).
|
|
|
|
@findex pre-commands
|
|
@findex commands
|
|
@findex post-commands
|
|
@item commands
|
|
When GDB prompts for a set of commands, like in the @code{commands}
|
|
command. The annotations are repeated for each command which is input.
|
|
|
|
@findex pre-overload-choice
|
|
@findex overload-choice
|
|
@findex post-overload-choice
|
|
@item overload-choice
|
|
When GDB wants the user to select between various overloaded functions.
|
|
|
|
@findex pre-query
|
|
@findex query
|
|
@findex post-query
|
|
@item query
|
|
When GDB wants the user to confirm a potentially dangerous operation.
|
|
|
|
@findex pre-prompt-for-continue
|
|
@findex prompt-for-continue
|
|
@findex post-prompt-for-continue
|
|
@item prompt-for-continue
|
|
When GDB is asking the user to press return to continue. Note: Don't
|
|
expect this to work well; instead use @code{set height 0} to disable
|
|
prompting. This is because the counting of lines is buggy in the
|
|
presence of annotations.
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
@node Errors
|
|
@chapter Errors
|
|
|
|
@findex quit
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zquit
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
This annotation occurs right before GDB responds to an interrupt.
|
|
|
|
@findex error
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zerror
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
This annotation occurs right before GDB responds to an error.
|
|
|
|
Quit and error annotations indicate that any annotations which GDB was
|
|
in the middle of may end abruptly. For example, if a
|
|
@code{value-history-begin} annotation is followed by a @code{error}, one
|
|
cannot expect to receive the matching @code{value-history-end}. One
|
|
cannot expect not to receive it either, however; an error annotation
|
|
does not necessarily mean that GDB is immediately returning all the way
|
|
to the top level.
|
|
|
|
@findex error-begin
|
|
A quit or error annotation may be preceded by
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zerror-begin
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Any output between that and the quit or error annotation is the error
|
|
message.
|
|
|
|
Warning messages are not yet annotated.
|
|
@c If we want to change that, need to fix warning(), type_error(),
|
|
@c range_error(), and possibly other places.
|
|
|
|
@node Breakpoint Info
|
|
@chapter Information on Breakpoints
|
|
|
|
The output from the @code{info breakpoints} command is annotated as follows:
|
|
|
|
@findex breakpoints-headers

@findex breakpoints-table
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zbreakpoints-headers
|
|
@var{header-entry}
|
|
^Z^Zbreakpoints-table
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{header-entry} has the same syntax as an entry (see below) but
|
|
instead of containing data, it contains strings which are intended to
|
|
convey the meaning of each field to the user. This is followed by any
|
|
number of entries. If a field does not apply for this entry, it is
|
|
omitted. Fields may contain trailing whitespace. Each entry consists
|
|
of:
|
|
|
|
@findex record
|
|
@findex field
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zrecord
|
|
^Z^Zfield 0
|
|
@var{number}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 1
|
|
@var{type}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 2
|
|
@var{disposition}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 3
|
|
@var{enable}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 4
|
|
@var{address}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 5
|
|
@var{what}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 6
|
|
@var{frame}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 7
|
|
@var{condition}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 8
|
|
@var{ignore-count}
|
|
^Z^Zfield 9
|
|
@var{commands}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Note that @var{address} is intended for user consumption---the syntax
|
|
varies depending on the language.
|
|

The output ends with
|

@chapter Invalidation Notices
|
|
|
|
The following annotations say that certain pieces of state may have
|
|
changed.
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@findex frames-invalid
|
|
@item ^Z^Zframes-invalid
|
|
|
|
The frames (for example, output from the @code{backtrace} command) may
|
|
have changed.
|
|
|
|
@findex breakpoints-invalid
|
|
@item ^Z^Zbreakpoints-invalid
|
|
|
|
The breakpoints may have changed. For example, the user just added or
|
|
deleted a breakpoint.

@chapter Running the Program
|
|
|
|
@findex starting
|
|
@findex stopping
|
|
When the program starts executing due to a GDB command such as
|
|
@code{step} or @code{continue},
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zstarting
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
is output. When the program stops,
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zstopped
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
is output. Before the @code{stopped} annotation, a variety of
|
|
annotations describe how the program stopped.
|
|
|
|
@table @code
|
|
@findex exited
|
|
@item ^Z^Zexited @var{exit-status}
|
|
The program exited, and @var{exit-status} is the exit status (zero for
|
|
successful exit, otherwise nonzero).
|
|
|
|
@findex signalled
|
|
@findex signal-name
|
|
@findex signal-name-end
|
|
@findex signal-string
|
|
@findex signal-string-end
|
|
@item ^Z^Zsignalled
|
|
The program exited with a signal. After the @code{^Z^Zsignalled}, the
|
|
annotation continues:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
@var{intro-text}
|
|
^Z^Zsignal-name
|
|
@var{name}
|
|
^Z^Zsignal-name-end
|
|
@var{middle-text}
|
|
^Z^Zsignal-string
|
|
@var{string}
|
|
^Z^Zsignal-string-end
|
|
@var{end-text}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{name} is the name of the signal, such as @code{SIGILL} or
|
|
@code{SIGSEGV}, and @var{string} is the explanation of the signal, such
|
|
as @code{Illegal Instruction} or @code{Segmentation fault}.
|
|
@var{intro-text}, @var{middle-text}, and @var{end-text} are for the
|
|
user's benefit and have no particular format.
|
|
|
|
@findex signal
|
|
@item ^Z^Zsignal
|
|
The syntax of this annotation is just like @code{signalled}, but GDB is
|
|
just saying that the program received the signal, not that it was
|
|
terminated with it.
|
|
|
|
@findex breakpoint
|
|
@item ^Z^Zbreakpoint @var{number}
|
|
The program hit breakpoint number @var{number}.
|
|
|
|
@findex watchpoint
|
|
@item ^Z^Zwatchpoint @var{number}
|
|
The program hit watchpoint number @var{number}.

@chapter Displaying Source
|
|
|
|
@findex source
|
|
The following annotation is used instead of displaying source code:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
^Z^Zsource @var{filename}:@var{line}:@var{character}:@var{middle}:@var{addr}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{filename} is an absolute file name indicating which source
|
|
file, @var{line} is the line number within that file (where 1 is the
|
|
first line in the file), @var{character} is the character position
|
|
within the file (where 0 is the first character in the file) (for most
|
|
debug formats this will necessarily point to the beginning of a line),
|
|
@var{middle} is @samp{middle} if @var{addr} is in the middle of the
|
|
line, or @samp{beg} if @var{addr} is at the beginning of the line, and
|
|
@var{addr} is the address in the target program associated with the
|
|
source which is being displayed. @var{addr} is in the form @samp{0x}
|
|
followed by one or more lowercase hex digits (note that this does not
|
|
depend on the language).

@chapter Annotations We Might Want in the Future
|
|
|
|
@format
|
|
- target-invalid
|
|
the target might have changed (registers, heap contents, or
|
|
execution status). For performance, we might eventually want
|
|
to hit `registers-invalid' and `all-registers-invalid' with
|
|
greater precision
|
|
|
|
- systematic annotation for set/show parameters (including
|
|
invalidation notices).
|
|
|
|
- similarly, `info' returns a list of candidates for invalidation
|
|
notices.
