Simon Marchi a288518611 gdb/linux: remove ptrace support check for exec, fork, vfork, vforkdone, clone, sysgood
I think it's safe to remove checking support for these ptrace features,
they have all been added in what is now ancient times (around the
beginning of Linux 2.6).  This allows removing a bit of complexity in
linux-nat.c and nat/linux-ptrace.c.

It also allows saving one extra fork every time we start debugging on
Linux: linux_check_ptrace_features forks a child process to test if some
ptrace features are supported.  That child process forks a grand-child,
to test whether ptrace reports an event for the fork by the child.  This
is no longer needed, if we assume the kernel supports reporting forks.

PTRACE_O_TRACEVFORKDONE was introduced in Linux in this change, in 2003:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=45c1a159b85b3b30afd26a77b4be312226bba416

PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD was supported at least as of this change, in 2002:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=acc7088569c8eef04eeed0eff51d23bb5bcff964

PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK, PTRACE_O_TRACEVFORK, PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC and
PTRACE_O_TRACECLONE were introduced in this change, in 2002:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=a0691b116f6a4473f0fa264210ab9b95771a2b46

/* True if whether a breakpoint/watchpoint triggered can be determined
from the si_code of SIGTRAP's siginfo_t (TRAP_BRKPT/TRAP_HWBKPT).
That is, if the kernel can tell us whether the thread executed a
software breakpoint, we trust it. The kernel will be determining
that from the hardware (e.g., from which exception was raised in
the CPU). Relying on whether a breakpoint is planted in memory at
the time the SIGTRAP is processed to determine whether the thread
stopped for a software breakpoint can be too late. E.g., the
breakpoint could have been removed since. Or the thread could have
stepped an instruction the size of a breakpoint instruction, and
before the stop is processed a breakpoint is inserted at its
address. Getting these wrong is disastrous on decr_pc_after_break
architectures. The moribund location mechanism helps with that
somewhat but it is an heuristic, and can well fail. Getting that
information out of the kernel and ultimately out of the CPU is the
way to go. That said, some architecture may get the si_code wrong,
and as such we're leaving fallback code in place. We'll remove
this after a while if no problem is reported. */
#define USE_SIGTRAP_SIGINFO 1
/* The x86 kernel gets some of the si_code values backwards, like
this:
| what | si_code |
|------------------------------------------+-------------|
| software breakpoints (int3) | SI_KERNEL |
| single-steps | TRAP_TRACE |
| single-stepping a syscall | TRAP_BRKPT |
| user sent SIGTRAP | 0 |
| exec SIGTRAP (when no PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC) | 0 |
| hardware breakpoints/watchpoints | TRAP_HWBKPT |
That is, it reports SI_KERNEL for software breakpoints (and only
for those), and TRAP_BRKPT for single-stepping a syscall... If the
kernel is ever fixed, we'll just have to detect it like we detect
optional ptrace features: by forking and debugging ourselves,
running to a breakpoint and checking what comes out of
siginfo->si_code.
The ppc kernel does use TRAP_BRKPT for software breakpoints
in PowerPC code, but it uses SI_KERNEL for software breakpoints
in SPU code on a Cell/B.E. However, SI_KERNEL is never seen
on a SIGTRAP for any other reason.
The MIPS kernel up until 4.5 used SI_KERNEL for all kernel
generated traps. Since:
- MIPS doesn't do hardware single-step.
- We don't need to care about exec SIGTRAPs --- we assume
PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC is available.
- The MIPS kernel doesn't support hardware breakpoints.
on MIPS, all we need to care about is distinguishing between
software breakpoints and hardware watchpoints, which can be done by
peeking the debug registers.
Beginning with Linux 4.6, the MIPS port reports proper TRAP_BRKPT and
TRAP_HWBKPT codes, so we also match them.
The generic Linux target code should use GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_* instead
of TRAP_* to abstract out these peculiarities. */
