I noticed some failures of some buildbot slaves, e.g.:
FAIL: gdb.cp/nested-types.exp: ptype S10 (limit = 1) // wrong nested type enum definition: enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The issue is that they have an older gcc (not c++11 by default?) that
doesn't emit the enum underlying type information. When the
enum type is printed by ptype, it looks like this:
enum S10::E10 {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
instead of this on older gccs:
enum S10::E10 : unsigned int {S10::A10, S10::B10, S10::C10};
The regex that matches this is in cp_test_ptype_class, and is
enum $nested_name (: (unsigned )?int)? \{
If the "unsigned int" portion is not present, then it requires the
string to have two spaces between the enum name and opening bracket.
The fix is simply to move the trailing space inside the ? group.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/cp-support.exp (cp_test_ptype_class): Move space inside
parentheses.
This removes most (but not all) cleanups from linux-thread-db.c.
std::string and std::vector are used in place of manual memory
management.
The remaining cleanup in linux-thread-db.c uses
make_cleanup_free_char_ptr_vec, which requires a somewhat bigger
change.
Regression tested by the buildbot.

Subject: [PATCH] dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Compiling with Clang 6 shows these errors:
/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26610:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a

/home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26618:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a
ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The code in question checks if there is any offset exceeding 32 bits,
and therefore if we need to use the 64-bit DWARF format when writing the
.debug_names section. The type we use currently to represent section
offsets is an unsigned int (32-bits), which means a value of this type
will never exceed 32 bits, hence the errors above.
There are many signs that we want to support 64-bits DWARF (although I
haven't tested), such as:
- We correctly read initial length fields (read_initial_length)
- We take that into account when reading offsets (read_offset_1)
- The check_dwarf64_offsets function
However, I don't see how it can work if sect_offset is a 32-bits type.
Every time we record a section offset, we risk truncating the value.
And if a file uses the 64-bit DWARF format, it's most likely because
there are such offset values that overflow 32 bits.
Because of this, I think the way forward is to change sect_offset to be
a uint64_t. It will be able to represent any offset, regardless of the
bitness of the DWARF info.
This patch was regtested on the buildbot.

Nowadays, we create a readonly regcache in get_return_value, and pass it
to gdbarch_return_value to get the return value. In theory, we can pass a
readable_regcache instance and get the return value, because we don't need
to modify the regcache. Unfortunately, gdbarch_return_value is designed
to multiplex regcache, according to READBUF and WRITEBUF.
# If READBUF is not NULL, extract the return value and save it in this
# buffer.
#
# If WRITEBUF is not NULL, it contains a return value which will be
# stored into the appropriate register.
In fact, gdbarch_return_value should be split to three functions, 1) only
return return_value_convention, 2) pass regcache_readonly and readbuf, 3)
pass regcache and writebuf. These changes are out of the scope of this
patch series, so I pass regcache to gdbarch_return_value even for read,
and trust each gdbarch backend doesn't modify regcache.
gdb:
2018-02-21 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* infcmd.c (get_return_value): Let stop_regs point to

* regcache.c (regcache::regcache): Remove.
(register_dump_reg_buffer): New class.

* regcache.h (regcache): Remove constructors.
Nowadays, we need to dump registers contents from "readwrite" regcache and
"readonly" regcache,
if (target_has_registers)
get_current_regcache ()->dump (out, what_to_dump);
else
{
/* For the benefit of "maint print registers" & co when
debugging an executable, allow dumping a regcache even when
there is no thread selected / no registers. */
regcache dummy_regs (target_gdbarch ());
dummy_regs.dump (out, what_to_dump);
}
since we'll have two different types/classes for "readwrite" regcache and
"readonly" regcache, we have to move dump method to their parent class,
reg_buffer. However, the functionality of "dump" looks unnecessary to
reg_buffer (because some dump modes like regcache_dump_none,
regcache_dump_remote and regcache_dump_groups don't need reg_buffer at
all, they need gdbarch to do the dump), so I decide to move "dump" into a
separate classes, and each sub-class is about each mode of dump.

jit.c uses the regcache in a slightly different way, the regcache dosen't
write through to target, but it has read and write methods. If I apply
regcache in record-full.c, it has the similar use pattern. This patch
adds a new class detached_regcache, a register buffer, but can be
read and written.
Since jit.c doesn't want to write registers through to target, it uses
regcache as a readonly regcache (because only readonly regcache
disconnects from the target), but it adds a hole in regcache
(raw_set_cached_value) in order to modify a readonly regcache. This patch
fixes this hole completely.
regcache inherits detached_regcache, and detached_regcache inherits
readable_regcache. The ideal design is that both detached_regcache and
readable_regcache inherit reg_buffer, and regcache inherit
detached_regcache and regcache_read (virtual inheritance). I concern
about the performance overhead of virtual inheritance, so I don't do it in
the patch.

pseudo registers are either from raw registers or memory, so
gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and pseudo_register_read_value
should have regcache object which only have read methods. In other
words, we should disallow writing to regcache in these two gdbarch
methods. In order to apply this restriction, this patch adds a new
class readable_regcache, derived from reg_buffer, and it only has
raw_read and cooked_read methods. regcache is derived from
readable_regcache. This patch also passes readable_regcache instead of
regcache to gdbarch methods pseudo_register_read and
pseudo_register_read_value.
This patch moves raw_read* and cooked_read* methods to readable_regcache,
which is straightforward. One thing not straightforward is that I split
regcache::xfer_part to readable_regcache::read_part and regcache::write_part,
because readable_regcache can only have methods to read.
readable_regcache is an abstract base class, and it has a pure virtual
function raw_update, because I don't want readable_regcache know where
these raw registers are from. They can be from either the target
(readwrite regcache) or the regcache itself (readonly regcache).

This patch adds a new class reg_buffer, and regcache inherits it. Class
reg_buffer is a very simple class, which has the buffer for register
contents and status only. It doesn't have any methods to set contents and
status, and it is expected that its children classes can inherit it and
add different access methods.
Another reason I keep class reg_buffer so simple is that I think
reg_buffer can be even reused in other classes which need to record the
registers contents and status, like frame cache for example.

When we kill an inferior, the inferior is not deleted. What is more, it
is reused when the new process is created, so we need to reset inferior's

I ran into a GDB crash in gdb.base/bp-cmds-continue-ctrl-c.exp in my
multi-target branch, which turns out exposed a bug that exists in
master too.
That testcase has a breakpoint with a "continue" command associated.
Then the breakpoint is constantly being hit. At the same time, the
testcase is continualy interrupting the program with Ctrl-C, and
re-resuming it, in a loop.
Running that testcase manually under Valgrind, after a few sequences
of 'Ctrl-C' + 'continue', I got:

Above, when we get to compute_frame_id, fi->unwind is non-NULL,
meaning, we found an unwinder, in this case the Python unwinder, but
somehow, fi->prologue_cache is left NULL. pyuw_this_id then crashes
because it assumes fi->prologue_cache is non-NULL:
static void
pyuw_this_id (struct frame_info *this_frame, void **cache_ptr,
struct frame_id *this_id)
{
*this_id = ((cached_frame_info *) *cache_ptr)->frame_id;
^^^^^^^^^^
'*cache_ptr' here is 'fi->prologue_cache'.
There's a quit() call in pyuw_sniffer that I believe is the one that
sometimes triggers the crash above. The crash can be reproduced
easily with this hack to force a quit out of the python unwinder:
--- a/gdb/python/py-unwind.c
+++ b/gdb/python/py-unwind.c
@@ -497,6 +497,8 @@ pyuw_sniffer (const struct frame_unwind *self, struct frame_info *this_frame,

+
gdbpy_enter enter_py (gdbarch, current_language);
TRACE_PY_UNWIND (3, "%s (SP=%s, PC=%s)\n", __FUNCTION__,
After that quit is thrown, any subsequent operation that involves
unwinding results in GDB crashing with SIGSEGV like above.
The problem is that this commit:
commit 30a9c02fef
CommitDate: Sun Oct 8 23:16:42 2017 -0600
Subject: Remove cleanup from frame_prepare_for_sniffer
missed that we need to call frame_cleanup_after_sniffer before
rethrowing the exception too.
Without the fix, the "bt" added to
gdb.base/bp-cmds-continue-ctrl-c.exp in this commit makes GDB crash:

This changes openp, source_full_path_of, and find_and_open_source to

This changes a couple of solib.c functions -- exec_file_find and
solib_find -- to return a unique_xmalloc_ptr, and then fixes up the
users. This allows the removal of some cleanups.
This also changes solib_bfd_open to not take ownership of its
argument. I think this change is somewhat cleaner.

There's actually a series of three issues reported, but it turns out
they're all related, so we can consider on the first one.
The invalid read is triggered from a destructor which is being invoked
as part of a stack unwind after throwing an error. At the time the
error is thrown, the stack looks like this:

The problem is that in `process_die` (frames 14 and 16) we create a
`process_die_scope` object, that takes a copy of the `struct
dwarf2_cu *` passed into the frame. The destructor of the
`process_die_scope` dereferences the stored pointer. This wouldn't be
an issue, except...
... in dw2_do_instantiate_symtab (frame 19) a clean up was registered that
clears the dwarf2_queue in case of an error. Part of this clean up
involves deleting the `struct dwarf2_cu`s referenced from the queue..
The problem then, is that cleanups are processed at the site of the
throw, while, class destructors are invoked as we unwind their frame.
The result is that we process the frame 19 cleanup (and delete the
struct dwarf2_cu) before we process the destructors in frames 14 and 16.
When we do get back to frames 14 and 16 the objects being references
have already been deleted.
The solution is to remove the cleanup from dw2_do_instantiate_symtab, and
instead use a destructor to release the dwarf2_queue instead. With this
patch in place, the valgrind errors are now resolved.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_release_queue): Delete function, move body
into...
(class dwarf2_queue_guard): ...the destructor of this new class.
(dw2_do_instantiate_symtab): Create instance of the new class
dwarf2_queue_guard, remove cleanup.
An earlier change made find_source_lines read:
end = &data[size];
However, since 'size' is the size of the vector, this seems fishy.
More obviously ok is to compute the end of the data directly:
end = data.data () + size;
2018-02-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* source.c (find_source_lines): Don't reference past the end of
the vector.
One recurring error on Debian systems is that the default perf_event_paranoid
setting disables the perf_event interface for user-space.
Check the current level and point the user to the file.
gdb/
* nat/linux-btrace.c (diagnose_perf_event_open_fail): New.
(linux_enable_pt, linux_enable_bts): Call
diagnose_perf_event_open_fail.
Improve the error message when GDB fails to start recording branch trace.
This patch also removes a zero buffer size check for PT to align with BTS. The
buffer size can not be configured to be zero.
gdb/
* nat/linux-btrace.c (perf_event_pt_event_type): Improve error message.
Remove parameter and change return type. Update callers. Move it.
(linux_enable_bts, linux_enable_pt): Improve error message.
(linux_enable_pt): Remove zero buffer size check.
(linux_enable_btrace): Improve error messages. Remove NULL return
check.
Remove the to_supports_btrace target method and instead rely on detecting errors
when trying to enable recording. This will also provide a suitable error
message explaining why recording is not possible.
For remote debugging, gdbserver will now always advertise branch tracing related
packets. When talking to an older GDB, this will cause GDB to try to enable
branch tracing and gdbserver to report a suitable error message every time.
An older gdbserver will not advertise branch tracing related packets if the
one-time check failed, so a newer GDB with this patch will fail to enable branch
tracing at remote_enable_btrace() rather than at btrace_enable(). The error
message is the same in both cases so there should be no user-visible change.
gdb/
* btrace.c (btrace_enable): Remove target_supports_btrace call.
* nat/linux-btrace.c (perf_event_pt_event_type): Move.
(kernel_supports_bts, kernel_supports_pt, linux_supports_bts)
(linux_supports_pt, linux_supports_btrace): Remove.
(linux_enable_bts): Call cpu_supports_bts.
* nat/linux-btrace.h (linux_supports_btrace): Remove.
* remote.c (remote_supports_btrace): Remove.
(init_remote_ops): Remove remote_supports_btrace.
* target-delegates.c: Regenerated.
* target.c (target_supports_btrace): Remove.
* target.h (target_ops) <to_supports_btrace>: Remove
(target_supports_btrace): Remove.
* x86-linux-nat.c (x86_linux_create_target): Remove
linux_supports_btrace.
gdbserver/
* linux-low.c (linux_target_ops): Remove linux_supports_btrace.
* nto-low.c (nto_target_ops): Remove NULL for supports_btrace.
* spu-low.c (spu_target_ops): Likewise.
* win32-low.c (win32_target_ops): Likewise.
* server.c (supported_btrace_packets): Report packets unconditionally.
* target.h (target_ops) <supports_btrace>: Remove.
(target_supports_btrace): Remove.
Change error reporting to use exceptions and be prepared to catch them in
gdbserver. We use the exception message in our error reply to GDB.
This may remove some detail from the error message in the native case since
errno is no longer printed. Later patches will improve that.
We're still using error strings on the RSP level. This patch does not affect
the interoperability of older/newer GDB/gdbserver.
gdbserver/
* server.c (handle_btrace_enable_bts, handle_btrace_enable_pt)
(handle_btrace_disable): Change return type to void. Use exceptions
to report errors.
(handle_btrace_general_set): Catch exception and copy message to
return message.
gdb/
* nat/linux-btrace.c (linux_enable_btrace): Throw exception if enabling
btrace failed.
* x86-linux-nat.c (x86_linux_enable_btrace): Catch btrace enabling
exception and use message in own exception.
We indicate success or failure for enabling branch tracing via the pointer
return value. Depending on the type of error, errno may provide additional
information.
Prepare for using exceptions with more descriptive error messages by using smart
pointers and objects with automatic destruction to hold intermediate results.
gdb/
* nat/linux-btrace.c: Include scoped_fd.h and scoped_mmap.h.
(perf_event_pt_event_type): Use gdb_file_up.
(linux_enable_bts, linux_enable_pt): Use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr,
scoped_fd, and scoped_mmap.
This changes auto_load_section_scripts to use gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr,
allowing the removal of a cleanup.
2018-02-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* auto-load.c (auto_load_section_scripts): Use
gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr.
This changes execute_script_contents to use a std::string, allowing
the removal of a cleanup.
2018-02-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* auto-load.c (execute_script_contents): Use std::string.
This removes a couple of cleanups from solib.c, replacing one with
std::string and another with unique_xmalloc_ptr.
2018-02-08 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* solib.c (solib_find_1): Use std::string.
(solib_bfd_fopen): Use unique_xmalloc_ptr.
