We currently have two flushing commands 'flushregs' and 'maint
flush-symbol-cache'. I'm planning to add at least one more so I
thought it might be nice if we bundled these together into one place.
And so I created the 'maint flush ' command prefix. Currently there
are two commands:
(gdb) maint flush symbol-cache
(gdb) maint flush register-cache
Unfortunately, even though both of the existing flush commands are
maintenance commands, I don't know how keen we about deleting existing
commands for fear of breaking things in the wild. So, both of the
existing flush commands 'maint flush-symbol-cache' and 'flushregs' are
still around as deprecated aliases to the new commands.
I've updated the testsuite to use the new command syntax, and updated
the documentation too.

Consider this GDB session:
(gdb) define set xxx_yyy

End with a line saying just "end".
>echo in set xxx_yyy command\n
>end
(gdb) alias set qqq_aaa=set xxx_yyy
(gdb) maintenance deprecate set qqq_aaa
(gdb) set qqq_aaa
Warning: 'qqq_aaa', an alias for the command 'xxx_yyy' is deprecated.
No alternative known.
in set xxx_yyy command
(gdb)
Notice the warning mentions 'qqq_aaa' and 'xxx_yyy', I consider this
to be wrong. I think the proper warning should read:
(gdb) set qqq_aaa
Warning: 'set qqq_aaa', an alias for the command 'set xxx_yyy', is deprecated.
No alternative known.
With the 'set' prefixes added and a comma before the final 'is
deprecated'. That is what this patch does. The expected results are
updated as needed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-decode.c (deprecated_cmd_warning): Ignore the prefix
result from lookup_cmd_composition_1, use the prefixes from both
the command and the alias instead.
(lookup_cmd_composition_1): Initial prefix command is the based on

the prefix command. Replace a use of alloca with a local
std::string.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/commands.exp: Update expected results.
Rewrite deprecated_cmd_warning to be i18n friendly. While I'm going
through the function I also cleaned up some whitespace issues,
replaced uses of NULL with nullptr, and moved some comments to avoid
having to add { ... }.
Though the message being printed has a 'Warning: ' prefix I could have
changed from using printf_filtered to use warning, however, I haven't
done that in this commit as that would change what GDB outputs and I
wanted this commit NOT to change the output.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-decode.c (deprecated_cmd_warning): Use nullptr instead
of NULL. Don't print message piece by piece, but sentence at a
time to allow internationalisation. Some whitespace cleanup.
I noticed that deprecated aliases that have a prefix don't give a
deprecated command warning. For example looking in mi/mi-main.c we
see this:
c = add_alias_cmd ("target-async", "mi-async", class_run, 0, &setlist);
deprecate_cmd (c, "set mi-async");
c = add_alias_cmd ("target-async", "mi-async", class_run, 0, &showlist);
deprecate_cmd (c, "show mi-async");
So both 'set target-async' and 'show target-async' are deprecated and
should be giving a warning, however, in use we see no warning given.
This is a consequence of how the code that should give this
warning (deprecated_cmd_warning) performs a second command lookup in
order to distinguish between aliases and real commands, and that the
code that calls this (lookup_cmd_1) strips off prefix commands as it
calls itself recursively.
As a result when we are considering an alias like 'set target-async'
we first enter lookup_cmd_1 with text = "set target-async", we spot
the 'set' command prefix and then recursively call lookup_cmd_1 with
text = "target-async".
We spot that 'target-async' is a known alias but that it is
deprecated, and so call deprecated_cmd_warning passing in the value of
text, which remember is now "target-async".
In deprecated_cmd_warning we again perform a command lookup starting
from the top-level cmdlist, but now we're trying to find just
"target-async", this fails (as this command requires the 'set' prefix,
and so no warning is given.
I resolved this issue by passing a command list to the function
deprecated_cmd_warning, this is the list in which the command can be
found.
A new test is added to cover this case.
However, there is an additional problem which will be addressed in a
subsequent patch.
Consider this GDB session:
(gdb) define set xxx_yyy
Type commands for definition of "set xxx_yyy".
End with a line saying just "end".
>echo in set xxx_yyy command\n
>end
(gdb) alias set qqq_aaa=set xxx_yyy
(gdb) maintenance deprecate set qqq_aaa
(gdb) set qqq_aaa
Warning: 'qqq_aaa', an alias for the command 'xxx_yyy' is deprecated.
No alternative known.
in set xxx_yyy command
(gdb)
Notice the warning mentions 'qqq_aaa' and 'xxx_yyy', I consider this
to be wrong. I think the proper warning should read:
(gdb) set qqq_aaa
Warning: 'set qqq_aaa', an alias for the command 'set xxx_yyy' is deprecated.
No alternative known.
With the 'set' prefixes added. A later patch will resolve this
issue.

What's happened is during tab completion the alias has been resolved
to the actual command being aliased, and at this stage the warning is
issued. Clearly this is not what we want during tab completion.
In this commit I add a new parameter to the lookup function, a boolean
that indicates if the lookup is being done as part of completion.
This flag is used to suppress the warning. Now we get the expected
behaviour, the alias completes without any warning, but the warning is
still given once the user executes the alias.

When running test-case gdb.arch/i386-mpx-call.exp with target board unix/-m32,
we run into:
...
(gdb) continue^M
Continuing.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.arch/i386-mpx-call.exp: upper_bnd0: continue to a bnd violation
...
Let's look first for reference at -m64, where the test passes.
The test-case uses -mmpx -fcheck-pointer-bounds to generate pointer checks in
the exec. Effectively, -fcheck-pointer-bounds modifies the calling ABI: a
call passes pointer bounds as well as arguments. The call to upper (with
four pointer arguments and an int argument, passed in 5 registers) is modified
like this:
...
lea -0xa0(%rbp),%rcx
lea -0x80(%rbp),%rdx
lea -0x60(%rbp),%rsi
lea -0x40(%rbp),%rax
mov $0x0,%r8d
+ bndmov -0x110(%rbp),%bnd3
+ bndmov -0x100(%rbp),%bnd2
+ bndmov -0xf0(%rbp),%bnd1
+ bndmov -0xe0(%rbp),%bnd0
mov %rax,%rdi
- callq <upper>
+ bnd callq <upper>
...
passsing the four pointer bounds in bounds registers BND0-3.
The top-level mechanism of the test is as follows:
- run the exec to after all mallocs are done, such that all pointer variables
are valid
- do inferior calls, similar to those present in the program
The inferior call mechanism doesn't differentiate between a call to a function
compiled with -fcheck-pointer-bounds, and one without. It merely resets the
bound registers to all-allowed state (see amd64_push_dummy_call), to make sure
the checks don't trigger during the inferior call. [ This is the same as what
happens when executing a call without bnd prefix when the BNDPRESERVE bit of
the BNDCFG register is set to 0, a provision for calling an instrumented
function using a non-instrumented call. ]
First, two inferior calls are done (default_run and verify_default_values)
with the bound registers unmodified by the test. So, the memory accesses are
performed with the bounds registers set by amd64_push_dummy_call to
all-allowed, and the bounds checks do not trigger.
Then we try to do an inferior call with modified bounds registers, set to
none-allowed. In order to do that, we set a breakpoint at *upper before
doing the inferior call. Once we hit the breakpoint during the inferior call,
the bounds registers are set to none-allowed, and we continue expecting to run
into an triggered bounds check, which takes the shape of a sigsegv.
Back to -m32. Here, the pointer arguments are passed in memory rather than
registers, so with -fcheck-pointer-bounds, the pointer bounds are placed in
the Bounds Table using bndstx:
...
movl $0x0,0x10(%eax)
lea -0x70(%ebp),%edx
mov %edx,0xc(%eax)
lea -0x5c(%ebp),%edx
mov %edx,0x8(%eax)
lea -0x48(%ebp),%edx
mov %edx,0x4(%eax)
lea -0x34(%ebp),%edx
mov %edx,(%eax)
lea 0xc(%eax),%edx
mov 0xc(%eax),%ecx
bndmov -0xa8(%ebp),%bnd1
bndstx %bnd1,(%edx,%ecx,1)
lea 0x8(%eax),%edx
mov 0x8(%eax),%ecx
bndmov -0xa0(%ebp),%bnd3
bndstx %bnd3,(%edx,%ecx,1)
lea 0x4(%eax),%edx
mov 0x4(%eax),%ecx
bndmov -0x98(%ebp),%bnd1
bndstx %bnd1,(%edx,%ecx,1)
mov (%eax),%edx
bndmov -0x90(%ebp),%bnd3
bndstx %bnd3,(%eax,%edx,1)
bnd call 804893f <upper>
...
Again, the bounds registers are reset at the start of the inferior call by
amd64_push_dummy_call, and modified by the test-case, but neither has any
effect. The code in upper reads the pointer bounds from the Bounds Table, not
from the bounds registers.
Note that for a test.c with an out-of-bounds access:
...
$ cat test.c
void foo (int *a) { volatile int v = a[1]; }
int main (void) { int a; foo (&a); return 0; }
$ gcc test.c -mmpx -fcheck-pointer-bounds -g -m32
$ ./a.out
Saw a #BR! status 1 at 0x804848d
...
and inferior call foo (&a) right before "bnd call foo" (at the point that the
bounds for a are setup in the bounds table) doesn't trigger a bounds violation:
...
(gdb) call foo (&a)
(gdb)
...
This is because the bounds table doesn't associate a pointer with bounds, but
rather a pair of pointer and pointer location. So, the bound is setup for &a,
with as location the pushed argument in the frame. The inferior call however
executes in a dummy frame, so the bound is checked for &a with as location the
pushed argument in the dummy frame, which is different, so the bounds check
doesn't trigger.
In conclusion, this is expected behaviour.
Update the test-case to not expect to override effective pointer bounds using
the bounds registers when the bounds passing is done via the Bounds Table.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

I noticed that some of the lexers were calling write_dollar_variable
from the lexer. This seems like a bad practice, so this patch moves
the side effects into the parsers.
I tested this by re-running gdb.fortran and gdb.modula2; the Pascal
compiler on my machine seems not to work, so I couldn't test
gdb.pascal.
I note that the type-tracking in the Pascal is also incorrect, in that
a convenience variable's type may change between parsing and
evaluation (or even during the course of evaluation).

The Ravenscar support assumes that the thread ID is the same as the

systems, gdbserver will report thread IDs that are off by some
constant. This can happen, e.g., with qemu in a scenario where there
is an additional (unreported) CPU in the emulation.

a global variable. This patch changes gdb to read this variable, when
it exists, and apply the offset to the base CPU ID. This fixes some

That test fails intermittently for me. The problem is a race condition
between the exec syscall and GDB resuming threads.
The initial situation is that we have two threads, let's call them
"leader" and "other". Leader is the one who is going to do the exec.
We stop at the breakpoint on the all_started function, so both threads
are stopped. When resuming, GDB resumes leader first and other second.
However, between resuming the two threads, leader has time to run and do
its exec, making other disappear. When GDB tries to resume other, it is
ino longer there. We get some "Couldn't get registers: No such
process." messages, and the state is a bit messed up.
The issue can be triggered consistently by adding a small delay after
the resume syscall:

This patch is about fixing the test to avoid this, since the test is not
about testing this particular corner case. Handling of multi-threaded
program doing execs should be improved too, but that's not the goal of
this patch.
Fix it by adding a synchronization point in the test to make sure both
threads were resumed by GDB before doing the exec. I added two
pthread_barrier_wait calls in each thread (for a total of three). I
think adding one call in each thread would not be enough, because this
could happen:
- both threads reach the first barrier
- the "other" thread is scheduled so has time to run and hit the second
barrier
- the "leader" thread hits the all_started function breakpoint, causing
both threads to be stopped by GDB
- GDB resumes the "leader" thread
- Since the "other" thread has already reached the second barrier, the
"leader" thread is free to run past its second barrier and do the
exec, while GDB still hasn't resumed the second one
By adding two barrier calls in each thread, I think we are good. The test
passes consistently for me, even with the artificial delay added.

In commit 4d91ddd342 "[gdb/testsuite] Fix unbalanced braces in
gdb.tui/new-layout.exp", I tried to fix a problem with test-case
gdb.tui/new-layout.exp when running with tcl 8.5.
However, at that point I only had access to the log containing the failure,
and unfortunately my patch turned out not to be effective.
So, finally fix this problem by guarding the problematic code with:
...

The FPSIMD dump in signal frames and ptrace FPSIMD dump in the SVE context
structure follows the target endianness, whereas the SVE dumps are
endianness-independent (LE).
Therefore, when the system is in BE mode, we need to reverse the bytes
for the FPSIMD data.
Given the V registers are larger than 64-bit, I've added a way for value
bytes to be set, as opposed to passing a 64-bit fixed quantity. This fits
nicely with the unwinding *_got_bytes function and makes the trad-frame
more flexible and capable of saving larger registers.
The memory for the bytes is allocated via the frame obstack, so it gets freed
after we're done inspecting the frame.

alias of andi. Similarly, sext.b and sext.h are aliases of other

In some cases, GNAT can emit 128-bit constants for fixed-point types.
This patch changes gdb to handle this scenario, by changing the

have gone into upstream GCC yet -- but they will eventually, and
meanwhile I think it should be clear that this patch is otherwise
harmless.)

Since commit 7c6f271296 ("gdb: make get_discrete_bounds check for
non-constant range bounds"), subscripting flexible array member fails:
struct no_size
{
int n;
int items[];
};
(gdb) p *ns
$1 = {n = 3, items = 0x5555555592a4}
(gdb) p ns->items[0]
Cannot access memory at address 0xfffe555b733a0164
(gdb) p *((int *) 0x5555555592a4)
$2 = 101 <--- we would expect that
(gdb) p &ns->items[0]
$3 = (int *) 0xfffe5559ee829a24 <--- wrong address
Since the flexible array member (items) has an unspecified size, the array type
created for it in the DWARF doesn't have dimensions (this is with gcc 9.3.0,
Ubuntu 20.04):
0x000000a4: DW_TAG_array_type
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x00000038 "int")
DW_AT_sibling [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x000000b3)
0x000000ad: DW_TAG_subrange_type
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x00000031 "long unsigned int")
This causes GDB to create a range type (TYPE_CODE_RANGE) with a defined
constant low bound (dynamic_prop with kind PROP_CONST) and an undefined
high bound (dynamic_prop with kind PROP_UNDEFINED).
value_subscript gets both bounds of that range using
get_discrete_bounds. Before commit 7c6f271296, get_discrete_bounds
didn't check the kind of the dynamic_props and would just blindly read
them as if they were PROP_CONST. It would return 0 for the high bound,
because we zero-initialize the range_bounds structure. And it didn't
really matter in this case, because the returned high bound wasn't used
in the end.
Commit 7c6f271296 changed get_discrete_bounds to return a failure if
either the low or high bound is not a constant, to make sure we don't
read a dynamic prop that isn't a PROP_CONST as a PROP_CONST. This
change made get_discrete_bounds start to return a failure for that
range, and as a result would not set *lowp and *highp. And since
value_subscript doesn't check get_discrete_bounds' return value, it just
carries on an uses an uninitialized value for the low bound. If
value_subscript did check the return value of get_discrete_bounds, we
would get an error message instead of a bogus value. But it would still
be a bug, as we wouldn't be able to print the flexible array member's
elements.
Looking at value_subscript, we see that the low bound is always needed,
but the high bound is only needed if !c_style. So, change
value_subscript to use get_discrete_low_bound and
get_discrete_high_bound separately. This fixes the case described
above, where the low bound is known but the high bound isn't (and is not
needed). This restores the original behavior without accessing a
dynamic_prop in a wrong way.
A test is added. In addition to the case described above, a case with
an array member of size 0 is added, which is a GNU C extension that
existed before flexible array members were introduced. That case
currently fails when compiled with gcc <= 8. gcc <= 8 produces DWARF
similar to the one shown above, while gcc 9 adds a DW_AT_count of 0 in
there, which makes the high bound known. A case where an array member
of size 0 is the only member of the struct is also added, as that was
how PR 28675 was originally reported, and it's an interesting corner
case that I think could trigger other funny bugs.
Question about the implementation: in value_subscript, I made it such
that if the low or high bound is unknown, we fall back to zero. That
effectively makes it the same as it was before 7c6f271296. But should
we instead error() out?
