I noticed that generic_value_print assumes that a subrange type is
always a subrange of an integer type. However, this isn't necessarily
the case. In Ada, for example, one has subranges of character and
enumeration types.
This code isn't often exercised, I think, because languages with real
subrange types tend to implement their own printers. However, it
still seemed worth fixing.
The only caller of do_val_print just does a small bit of work before
the call. This patch merges the two functions, and removes an
unnecessary local variable, making gdb a bit simpler.
I think it only really makes sense to call wrap_here with an argument
consisting solely of spaces. Given this, it seemed better to me that
the argument be an int, rather than a string. This patch is the
result. Much of it was written by a script.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py

For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were

There's a common pattern to call add_basic_prefix_cmd and
add_show_prefix_cmd to add matching set and show commands. Add the
add_setshow_prefix_cmd function to factor that out and use it at a few
places.

The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

When printing a variable x in a subroutine foo:
...
subroutine foo (x)
integer(4) :: x (*)
x(3) = 1
end subroutine foo
...
where x is an array with unknown bounds, we get:
...
$ gdb -q -batch outputs/gdb.fortran/array-no-bounds/array-no-bounds \
-ex "break foo" \
-ex run \
-ex "print x"
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4005cf: file array-no-bounds.f90, line 18.
Breakpoint 1, foo (x=...) at array-no-bounds.f90:18
18 x(3) = 1
$1 = <error reading variable>
...
Improve the error message by printing the details of the error, such that we
have instead:
...
$1 = <error reading variable: failed to get range bounds>
...
This is a change in gdb/valprint.c, and grepping through the sources reveals
that this is a common pattern.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
Remove the `TYPE_FIELD_NAME` and `FIELD_NAME` macros, changing all the

The "val_print_type_code_flags ()" function is responsible for
extraction of fields for "flags" data type. These data types are
used when describing a custom register type in a target description
XML. The logic used for the extraction though is not sound:
unsigned field_len = TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (type, field);
ULONGEST field_val
= val >> (TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS (type, field) - field_len + 1);
TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE: The bit length of the field to be extracted.
TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS: The starting position of the field; 0 is LSB.
val: The register value.
Imagine you have a field that starts at position 1 and its length
is 4 bits. According to the third line of the code snippet the
shifting right would become "val >> -2", or "val >> 0xfff...fe"
to be precise. That will result in a "field_val" of 0.
The correct extraction should be:
ULONGEST field_val = val >> TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS (type, field);
The rest of the algorithm that masks out the higher bits is OK.

Same idea as previous patch, but for add_alias_cmd. Remove the overload
that accepts the target command as a string (the target command name),
leaving only the one that takes the cmd_list_element.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* command.h (add_alias_cmd): Accept target as
cmd_list_element. Update callers.
Change-Id: I546311f411e9e7da9302322d6ffad4e6c56df266
Previously, the prefixname field of struct cmd_list_element was manually
set for prefix commands. This seems verbose and error prone as it
required every single call to functions adding prefix commands to
specify the prefix name while the same information can be easily
generated.
Historically, this was not possible as the prefix field was null for
many commands, but this was fixed in commit
3f4d92ebdf by Philippe Waroquiers, so
we can rely on the prefix field being set when generating the prefix
name.
This commit also fixes a use after free in this scenario:
* A command gets created via Python (using the gdb.Command class).
The prefix name member is dynamically allocated.
* An alias to the new command is created. The alias's prefixname is set
to point to the prefixname for the original command with a direct
assignment.
* A new command with the same name as the Python command is created.
* The object for the original Python command gets freed and its
prefixname gets freed as well.
* The alias is updated to point to the new command, but its prefixname
is not updated so it keeps pointing to the freed one.

it can now be generated automatically. Update all callers.

prefixname member variable with a method which generates the
prefix name at runtime. Update all code reading the prefix
name to use the method, and remove all code setting it.
* python/py-cmd.c (cmdpy_destroyer): Remove code to free the
prefixname member as it's now a method.
(cmdpy_function): Determine if the command is a prefix by
looking at prefixlist, not prefixname.
The current_top_target function is a hidden dependency on the current
inferior. Since I'd like to slowly move towards reducing our dependency
on the global current state, remove this function and make callers use
current_inferior ()->top_target ()
There is no expected change in behavior, but this one step towards
making those callers use the inferior from their context, rather than
refer to the global current inferior.

* target.h (current_top_target): Remove, make callers use the
current inferior instead.
* target.c (current_top_target): Remove.

Extend the "x" and "print" commands to make use of memory tagging
functionality, if supported by the architecture.
The "print" command will point out any possible tag mismatches it finds
when dealing with pointers, in case such a pointer is tagged. No additional
modifiers are needed.
Suppose we have a pointer "p" with value 0x1234 (logical tag 0x0) and that we
have an allocation tag of 0x1 for that particular area of memory. This is the
expected output:
(gdb) p/x p
Logical tag (0x0) does not match the allocation tag (0x1).
$1 = 0x1234
The "x" command has a new 'm' modifier that will enable displaying of
allocation tags alongside the data dump. It will display one allocation
tag per line.
AArch64 has a tag granule of 16 bytes, which means we can have one tag for
every 16 bytes of memory. In this case, this is what the "x" command will
display with the new 'm' modifier:
(gdb) x/32bxm p
<Allocation Tag 0x1 for range [0x1230,0x1240)>
0x1234: 0x01 0x02 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
0x123c: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
<Allocation Tag 0x1 for range [0x1240,0x1250)>
0x1244: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
0x124c: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
(gdb) x/4gxm a
<Allocation Tag 0x1 for range [0x1230,0x1240)>

<Allocation Tag 0x1 for range [0x1240,0x1250)>

Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
Spotted that print_char_chars appears to be unused, delete it. There
should be no user visible changes after this commit.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* valprint.c (print_char_chars): Delete definition.
* valprint.h (print_char_chars): Delete declaration.
This logically connects this function to the object it inspects.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (struct type) <fixed_point_scaling_factor>: New method,
replacing fixed_point_scaling_factor. All callers updated
throughout this project.
(fixed_point_scaling_factor): Delete declaration.
* gdbtypes.c (type::fixed_point_scaling_factor): Replaces
fixed_point_scaling_factor. Adjust implementation accordingly.
As suggested by Simon, to logically connect this function to
the object it inspects.
Note that, logically, this method should be "const". Unfortunately,
the implementation iterates on struct type objects starting with "this",
and thus trying to declare the method "const" triggers a compilation
error.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbtypes.h (struct type) <fixed_point_type_base_type> New method,
replacing the fixed_point_type_base_type function. All callers
updated throughout this project.
(fixed_point_type_base_type): Remove declaration.
* gdbtypes.c (type::fixed_point_type_base_type): Replaces
fixed_point_type_base_type. Adjust implementation accordingly.
This commit changes the interfaces of some of the methods declared
in gmp-utils to take a gdb::array_view of gdb_byte instead of a
(gdb_byte *, size) couple.
This makes these methods' API probably more C++-idiomatic.
* gmp-utils.h (gdb_mpz::read): Change buf and len parameters
into one single gdb::array_view parameter.
(gdb_mpz::write): Likewise.
(gdb_mpq::read_fixed_point, gdb_mpq::write_fixed_point): Likewise.
* gmp-utils.c (gdb_mpz::read): Change buf and len parameters
into one single gdb::array_view parameter.
Adjust implementation accordingly.
(gdb_mpz::write): Likewise.
(gdb_mpq::read_fixed_point, gdb_mpq::write_fixed_point): Likewise.
* unittests/gmp-utils-selftests.c: Adapt following changes above.
* valarith.c, valops.c, valprint.c, value.c: Likewise.
This was suggested by Simon during a code review of this package upstream.
The upside is that this makes the function's API more natural and C++.
The downside is an extra malloc, which might be the reason why we went
for using a unique_xmalloc_ptr in the first place. Since this function
is not expected to be called frequently, the API improvement might be
worth the performance impact.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gmp-utils.h (gmp_string_printf): Rename from gmp_string_asprintf.
Change return type to std::string. Update all callers.
* gmp-utils.c (gmp_string_printf): Likewise.
This commit introduces a new kind of type, meant to describe
fixed-point types, using a new code added specifically for
this purpose (TYPE_CODE_FIXED_POINT).
It then adds handling of fixed-point base types in the DWARF reader.
And finally, as a first step, this commit adds support for printing
the value of fixed-point type objects.
Note that this commit has a known issue: Trying to print the value
of a fixed-point object with a format letter (e.g. "print /x NAME")
causes the wrong value to be printed because the scaling factor
is not applied. Since the fix for this issue is isolated, and
this is not a regression, the fix will be made in a pach of its own.
This is meant to simplify review and archeology.
Also, other functionalities related to fixed-point type handling
(ptype, arithmetics, etc), will be added piecemeal as well, for
the same reasons (faciliate reviews and archeology). Related to this,
the testcase gdb.ada/fixed_cmp.exp is adjusted to compile the test
program with -fgnat-encodings=all, so as to force the use of GNAT
encodings, rather than rely on the compiler's default to use them.
The intent is to enhance this testcase to also test the pure DWARF
approach using -fgnat-encodings=minimal as soon as the corresponding
suport gets added in. Thus, the modification to the testcase is made
in a way that it prepares this testcase to be tested in both modes.

Replace the single use of the LA_PRINT_ARRAY_INDEX macro with the
macro's definition, and delete the macro.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* language.h (LA_PRINT_ARRAY_INDEX): Delete.
* valprint.c (maybe_print_array_index): Replace use of macro with
the macros definition.
Remove the LA_VALUE_PRINT macro, and replace its uses with direct
calls to the value_print member function on an appropriate language.
In the global 'value_print' function, we call the value_print method
on the current_language, this is a direct inline replacement of the
old LA_VALUE_PRINT macro.
However, in ada-lang.c, and language.c the macro was being used
within the print_array_index member function of a language class. In
these cases we now call the value_print member function of the current
language class.
In theory, when we are inside (for example) the
ada_language::print_array_index function the current_language should
always be set to Ada, so this change should have no effect. However,
if we ever could get into ada_language::print_array_index with the
current language set to something else (which I think would have been
a bug) then we would now see a change in behaviour. I couldn't find
any cases where this happened though.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit, but it is
not impossible in some edge cases.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_language::print_array_index): Call value_print
directly.
* language.c (language_defn::print_array_index): Likewise.
* language.h (LA_VALUE_PRINT): Delete.
* valprint.c (value_print): Call value_print on the
current_language directly.
I ran across this comment in valprint.c:
/* FIXME: create_static_range_type does not set the unsigned bit in a
range type (I think it probably should copy it from the target
type), so we won't print values which are too large to
fit in a signed integer correctly. */
It seems to me that a range type ought to inherit its signed-ness from
the underlying type, so this patch implements this change, and removes
the comment. (It was also copied into m2-valprint.c.)
I also remove the comment about handling ranges of enums, because I
think that comment is incorrect.

* gdbtypes.c (create_range_type): Set TYPE_UNSIGNED from base

TYPE_CODE_MEMBERPTR and TYPE_CODE_METHODPTR are only used for C++, so
it seems to me that the generic value-printing code ought to handle
these cases -- that way, printing these objects will work even when
the current language is not C++. This patch implements this idea.

* valprint.c (generic_val_print_float): Remove "embedded_offset"
parameter.
(generic_value_print): Update.
In Ada, like C, an enum can assign values to the constants. However,
unlike C (or any other language supported by gdb), the enum type can
also be used as the range of an array.
In this case, the user's code references the enum constants, but the
compiler translates these to the position of the constant in the enum.
So for example one might write:
type Enum_With_Gaps is
(
LIT0,
LIT1,
LIT2,
LIT3,
LIT4
);
for Enum_With_Gaps use
(
LIT0 => 3,
LIT1 => 5,
LIT2 => 8,
LIT3 => 13,
LIT4 => 21
);
Then index an array like "array(LIT3)" -- but this will be the 4th
element in an array of 5 elements, not the 13th element in an array of
19 (assuming I did the math right) elements.
gdb supports this to some degree, with the only missing piece being
indexing into such an array. This patch implements this missing
feature, and also fixes an existing bug, which is that in some
situations I believe gdb would mis-compute the resulting array's
length.
The approach taken here is to try to integrate this feature into the
core of gdb. My view is that much of the Ada support should be better
integrated with gdb, rather than being "on the side". This, I think,
would help avoid code duplication at least. So, I try to take steps
toward this goal when possible.
Because other languages generally don't allow the user to specify the
index type of an array, I simply made the core of gdb unconditionally
apply discrete_position when computing the range of such an array.
This is a no-op for ordinary types, but applies the enum
value-to-position transformation for TYPE_CODE_ENUM.
