When GDB finds out the target triggered a watchpoint, and the target has non-continuable watchpoints, GDB sets things up to step past the instruction that triggered the watchpoint. This is just like stepping past a breakpoint, but goes through a different mechanism - it resumes only the thread that needs to step past the watchpoint, but also switches a "infwait state" global, that has the effect that the next target_wait only wait for events only from that thread. This forcing of a ptid to pass to target_wait obviously becomes a bottleneck if we ever support stepping past different watchpoints simultaneously (in separate processes). It's also unnecessary -- the target should only return events for threads that have been resumed; if no other thread than the one we're stepping past the watchpoint has been resumed, then those other threads should not report events. If we couldn't assume that, then stepping past regular breakpoints would be broken for not likewise forcing a similar infwait_state. So this patch eliminates infwait_state, and instead teaches keep_going to mark step_over_info in a way that has the breakpoints module skip inserting watchpoints (because we're stepping past one), like it skips breakpoints when we're stepping past one. Tested on: - x86_64 Fedora 20 (continuable watchpoints) - PPC64 Fedora 18 (non-steppable watchpoints) gdb/ 2014-10-15 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * breakpoint.c (should_be_inserted): Don't insert watchpoints if trying to step past a non-steppable watchpoint. * gdbthread.h (struct thread_info) <stepping_over_watchpoint>: New field. * infrun.c (struct step_over_info): Add new field 'nonsteppable_watchpoint_p' and adjust comments. (set_step_over_info): New 'nonsteppable_watchpoint_p' parameter. Adjust. (clear_step_over_info): Clear nonsteppable_watchpoint_p as well. (stepping_past_nonsteppable_watchpoint): New function. (step_over_info_valid_p): Also return true if stepping past a nonsteppable watchpoint. (proceed): Adjust call to set_step_over_info. Remove reference to init_infwait_state. (init_wait_for_inferior): Remove reference to init_infwait_state. (waiton_ptid): Delete global. (struct execution_control_state) <stepped_after_stopped_by_watchpoint>: Delete field. (wait_for_inferior, fetch_inferior_event): Always pass minus_one_ptid to target_wait. (init_thread_stepping_state): Clear 'stepping_over_watchpoint' field. (init_infwait_state): Delete function. (handle_inferior_event): Remove infwait_state handling. (handle_signal_stop) <watchpoints handling>: Adjust after stepped_after_stopped_by_watchpoint removal. Don't remove breakpoints here nor set infwait_state. Set the thread's stepping_over_watchpoint flag, and call keep_going instead. (keep_going): Handle stepping_over_watchpoint. Adjust set_step_over_info calls. * infrun.h (stepping_past_nonsteppable_watchpoint): Declare function. |

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
