Currently, despite having a smart pointer for frame_infos, GDB may attempt to use an invalidated frame_info_ptr, which would cause internal errors to happen. One such example has been documented as PR python/28856, that happened when printing frame arguments calls an inferior function. To avoid failures, the smart wrapper was changed to also cache the frame id, so the pointer can be reinflated later. For this to work, the frame-id stuff had to be moved to their own .h file, which is included by frame-info.h. Frame_id caching is done explicitly using the prepare_reinflate method. Caching is done manually so that only the pointers that need to be saved will be, and reinflating has to be done manually using the reinflate method because the get method and the -> operator must not change the internals of the class. Finally, attempting to reinflate when the pointer is being invalidated causes the following assertion errors: check_ptrace_stopped_lwp_gone: assertion `lp->stopped` failed. get_frame_pc: Assertion `frame->next != NULL` failed. As for performance concerns, my personal testing with `time make chec-perf GDB_PERFTEST_MODE=run` showed an actual reduction of around 10% of time running. This commit also adds a testcase that exercises the python/28856 bug with 7 different triggers, run, continue, step, backtrace, finish, up and down. Some of them can seem to be testing the same thing twice, but since this test relies on stale pointers, there is always a chance that GDB got lucky when testing, so better to test extra. Regression tested on x86_64, using both gcc and clang. Approved-by: Tom Tomey <tom@tromey.com> |
