Tom de Vries noticed that the recent changes to the testsuite's
configury required an update to the README. This patch changes the
text to document the new reality.

* README (Example): Update read1 example.
I was diagnosing some problem with a TUI test case, which lead me to
improve the logging of _check_box a bit. It did help me, so I think it
would be nice to have it upstream.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/tuiterm.exp (Term) <_check_box>: Improve logging.
Change-Id: I887e83c02507d6c59c991e17f795c844ed63bacf
While reviewing a patch sent to the mailing list, I noticed there are few
places where python code checks if a variable is 'None' or not by using the
comparison operators '==' and '!='. PEP8[1], which is used as coding standard
in GDB coding standards, recommends using 'is' / 'is not' when comparing to a
singleton such as 'None'.
This patch proposes to change the instances of '== None' by 'is None' and
'!= None' by 'is not None'.

When trying to attach to a pthread process on a Linux system with glibc 2.33,
we get:
$ ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory -p 1472010
Attaching to process 1472010
[New LWP 1472013]
[New LWP 1472014]

Error while reading shared library symbols for /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0:
Cannot find user-level thread for LWP 1472015: generic error
0x00007ffff6d3637f in poll () from /usr/lib/libc.so.6
(gdb)
When attaching to a process (or handling a fork child, an operation very
similar to attaching), GDB reads the shared library list from the
process. For each shared library (if "set auto-solib-add" is on), it
reads its symbols and calls the "new_objfile" observable.
The libthread-db code monitors this observable, and if it sees an
objfile named somewhat like "libpthread.so" go by, it tries to load
libthread_db.so in the GDB process itself. libthread_db knows how to
navigate libpthread's data structures to get information about the
existing threads.
To locate these data structures, libthread_db calls ps_pglobal_lookup
(implemented in proc-service.c), passing in a symbol name and expecting
an address in return.
Before glibc 2.33, libthread_db always asked for symbols found in
libpthread. There was no ordering problem: since we were always trying
to load libthread_db in reaction to processing libpthread (and reading
in its symbols) and libthread_db only asked symbols from libpthread, the
requested symbols could always be found. Starting with glibc 2.33,
libthread_db now asks for a symbol name that can be found in
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (_rtld_global). And the ordering in which GDB
reads the shared libraries from the inferior when attaching is
unfortunate, in that libpthread is processed before ld-linux. So when
loading libthread_db in reaction to processing libpthread, and
libthread_db requests the symbol that is from ld-linux, GDB is not yet
able to supply it.
That problematic symbol lookup happens in the thread_from_lwp function,
when we call td_ta_map_lwp2thr_p, and an exception is thrown at this
point:

Catching the exception at this point means that the thread_db_info
object for this inferior will be left in place, despite the failure to
load libthread_db. This means that there won't be further attempts at
loading libthread_db, because thread_db_load will think that
libthread_db is already loaded for this inferior and will always exit
early. To fix this, add a try/catch around calling try_thread_db_load_1
in try_thread_db_load, such that if some exception is thrown while
trying to load libthread_db, we reset / delete the thread_db_info for
that inferior. That alone makes attach work fine again, because
check_for_thread_db is called again in the thread_db_inferior_created
observer (that happens after we learned about all shared libraries and
their symbols), and libthread_db is successfully loaded then.
When attaching, I think that the inferior_created observer is a good
place to try to load libthread_db: it is called once everything has
stabilized, when we learned about all shared libraries.
The only problem then is that when we first try (and fail) to load
libthread_db, in reaction to learning about libpthread, we show this
warning:
warning: Unable to find libthread_db matching inferior's thread library, thread debugging will not be available.
This is misleading, because we do succeed in loading it later. So when
attaching, I think we shouldn't try to load libthread_db in reaction to
the new_objfile events, we should wait until we have learned about all
shared libraries (using the inferior_created observable). To do so, add
an `in_initial_library_scan` flag to struct inferior. This flag is used
to postpone loading libthread_db if we are attaching or handling a fork
child.
When debugging remotely with GDBserver, the same problem happens, except
that the qSymbol mechanism (allowing the remote side to ask GDB for
symbols values) is involved. The fix there is the same idea, we make
GDB wait until all shared libraries and their symbols are known before
sending out a qSymbol packet. This way, we never present the remote
side a state where libpthread.so's symbols are known but ld-linux's
symbols aren't.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* inferior.h (class inferior) <in_initial_library_scan>: New.
* infcmd.c (post_create_inferior): Set in_initial_library_scan.
* infrun.c (follow_fork_inferior): Likewise.
* linux-thread-db.c (try_thread_db_load): Catch exception thrown
by try_thread_db_load_1
(thread_db_load): Return early if in_initial_library_scan is
set.
* remote.c (remote_new_objfile): Return early if
in_initial_library_scan is set.

It's a common mistake of mine to do:
...
set l [list "foo" "bar"]
set re [multi_line $l]
...
and to get "foo bar" while I was expecting "foo\r\nbar", which I get after
doing instead:
...
set re [multi_line {*}$l]
...
Detect this type of mistake by erroring out in multi_line when only one
argument is passed.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2021-06-08 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
* lib/gdb.exp (multi_line): Require more than one argument.
* gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp: Update multi_line call.
* gdb.base/jit-reader.exp: Remove multi_line call.
* gdb.fortran/dynamic-ptype-whatis.exp: Same.
With check-read1 we run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/info-macros.exp: info macros info-macros.c:42 (timeout)
...
Fix this by using gdb_test_lines from gdb.base/info-types.exp.tcl.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2021-06-08 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
* gdb.base/info-types.exp.tcl (match_line, gdb_test_lines): Move ...
* lib/gdb.exp: ... here.
* gdb.base/info-macros.exp: Use gdb_test_lines.
After adding support for --any in match_line, we can simplify
gdb.base/info-types.exp.tcl further: we can add the "All defined types:"
regexp in the output_lines list:
...
set output_lines \
[list \
+ "All defined types:" \
+ "--any" \
$file_re \
...
Consequently, we can simplify the state machine to track a variable "found"
with values:
- 0 (unmatched)
- 1 (matched)
- -1 (mismatch).
This makes the code generic enough to factor out into a new proc
gdb_test_lines.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

This is caused by spawn_shell matching too little output, after which
things start to go out of sync.
More specifically, the regexp:
...
-re "PS1=\[^\r\n\]*\r\n.*$shell_prompt_re$" {

matches the first and part of the second line of this output:
...
PS1="gdb-subshell$ "^M
sh-4.4$ PS1="gdb-subshell$ "^M

...
while it's supposed to match the entire output.
Fix this by splitting up the regexp into a part that skips the lines with PS1,
and one that reads the shell prompt.

gdb_rl_find_completion_word came to life as a modified (stripped down)
version of readline's internal _rl_find_completion_word function.
When I added it, I don't remember whether I realized that
'found_quote' wasn't really necessary. Maybe I kept it thinking of
keeping the source code in sync with readline? I don't recall
anymore. Since the function is already stripped down compared to the
original, stripping it down some more doesn't hurt.

The problem is that:

While doing some changes, I managed to break this test in a way that
running to main didn't work. However, it didn't produce any FAIL. I
noticed because I diff'ed the results and saw some PASSes unexpectedly
disappear, but that's a bit fragile. Add a fail in case this test fails
to run to main. Ideally, I think that runto_main should by default
produce a FAIL when it fails (the opposite of the existing logic), but
that's a project of its own, so just fix this test for the moment.

It was spotted that if type_align returned 0 then it was possible to
trigger a divide by zero exception within GDB. It turns out this will
only happen in an edge case where GDB is unable to figure out the
alignment of a field within a structure.

that triggers this condition, and then fixes this issue by throwing an
exception when this case occurs.

The past commit d1e93af64a ("gdb: set current thread in
sparc_{fetch,collect}_inferior_registers (PR gdb/27147)") changed
sparc_fetch_inferior_registers and sparc_store_inferior_registers to
look up the thread corresponding to the regcache's ptid and make it the
current thread. The reason being that down the call chain, some
functions (like sparc_supply_rwindow) can do some memory reads or write,
through target_read_memory/target_write_memory, and those rely on the
current global context.
There is one small problem with this approach: when debugging a
multi-threaded program, the regcache for a new thread is created just
before the corresponding thread_info is created. In fact, the regcache
is created somewhere during the call to thread_from_lwp, which is
responsible for creating the thread_info:

The problem is that while sparc_fetch_inferior_registers runs and is
asked to read the registers of a given ptid, there isn't a thread_info
with that ptid yet. So, find_thread_ptid returns nullptr, and
switch_to_thread gives an internal error.
Fix this by only setting inferior_ptid, instead of the whole global
context, as switch_to_thread does. This is sufficient for
target_read_memory / target_write_memory to work down the line.
Ideally, it would be nice to be able to pass the ptid down the whole
call chain and to target_read_memory / target_write_memory, so that this
setting of inferior_ptid would not be necessary. But this is not going
to happen soon.
This fixes running a multi-threaded program, which would hit the
internal error show in the call stack above.

Recently, I've rewritten gdb.base/info-types.exp.tcl to do processing
line-by-line (commit 2129a94255).
When building gdb with -O0, this test passes for me, but with -O2 I sometimes
run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/info-types-c.exp: info types (state == 1)
...
The output the failing gdb_test_multiple is trying to parse is:
...
(gdb) info types^M
All defined types:^M
^M
File src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/info-types.c:^M
52: typedef enum {...} anon_enum_t;^M
...
(gdb)
...
and the FAIL with state == 1 means that:
- the regexp for "All defined types:" did trigger, and that
- the regexp for "File .*info-types.c" didn't trigger.
This is due to the fact that the empty line inbetween is supposed to be
matched by the "random line" regexp "^\r\n(\[^\r\n\]*)(?=\r\n)", which doesn't
happen because instead the earlier regexp consuming the gdb prompt matches.
Fix this by moving the "random line" regexp up. [ Note that that regexp does
not consume the gdb prompt, because it requires (but doesn't consume) a
terminating "\r\n".

I get some random timeouts in this test due to big debug info taking a
lot of time to read through gdbserver. When host and target are on the
same machine, clear the sysroot parameter so that GDB reads the files
from the local file system, as we already do in many tests.
I agree with what Pedro says here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2019-March/156568.html
that if this is bad for us, it's also bad for users, so we should be
fixing the slowness instead. But so far nobody seems to be working on
it, and the testsuite timeouts are getting in the way, so I think this
"set sysroot" is a net positive for now.
Without this patch, the test takes over 2 minutes to run (most of it
"downloading" libc debug info), with it it takes 10 seconds.

With -fgnat-encodings=minimal, an internal version (these patches will
be upstreamed in the near future) of the Ada compiler can emit DWARF
for an array where the bound comes from a variable, like:
<1><12a7>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_array_type)
<12a8> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x1ae9): pck__my_array
[...]
<2><12b4>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_subrange_type)
<12b5> DW_AT_type : <0x1294>
<12b9> DW_AT_upper_bound : <0x1277>
With the upper bound DIE being:
<1><1277>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_variable)
<1278> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x1a4d): pck__my_length___U

<1280> DW_AT_external : 1
<1280> DW_AT_artificial : 1

variable comes from another compilation unit, and must be found when
trying to compute the array bound.

In `expression::evaluate (...)' there is a call to `inferior_thread
()' that is guarded by `target_has_execution ()':
struct value *
expression::evaluate (struct type *expect_type, enum noside noside)
{
gdb::optional<enable_thread_stack_temporaries> stack_temporaries;
if (target_has_execution ()
&& language_defn->la_language == language_cplus
&& !thread_stack_temporaries_enabled_p (inferior_thread ()))
stack_temporaries.emplace (inferior_thread ());
The `target_has_execution ()' guard maps onto `inf->pid' and the
`inferior_thread ()' call assumes that `current_thread_' is set to
something meaningful:
struct thread_info*
inferior_thread (void)
{
gdb_assert (current_thread_ != nullptr);
return current_thread_;
}
In other words, it is assumed that if `inf->pid' is set then
`current_thread_' must also be set. This does not hold at the point
where inferior exit observers are notified:
- `generic_mourn_inferior (...)'
- `switch_to_no_thread ()'
- `current_thread_ = nullptr;'
- `exit_inferior (...)'
- `gdb::observers::inferior_exit.notify (...)'
- `inf->pid = 0'
The inferior exit notification means that a Python handler can get a
chance to run while `current_thread' has been cleared and the
`inf->pid' has not been cleared. Since the Python handler can call any
GDB command with `gdb.execute(...)' (in my case `gdb.execute("set
$_a=0")' we can end up evaluating expressions and asserting in
`evaluate_subexp (...)'.
This patch adds a test in `evaluate_subexp (...)' to check the global
`inferior_ptid' which is reset at the same time as `current_thread_'.
Checking `inferior_ptid' at the same time as `target_has_execution ()'
seems to be a common pattern:
$ git grep -n -e inferior_ptid --and -e target_has_execution
gdb/breakpoint.c:2998: && (inferior_ptid == null_ptid || !target_has_execution ()))
gdb/breakpoint.c:3054: && (inferior_ptid == null_ptid || !target_has_execution ()))
gdb/breakpoint.c:4587: if (inferior_ptid == null_ptid || !target_has_execution ())
gdb/infcmd.c:360: if (inferior_ptid != null_ptid && target_has_execution ())

The testsuite has been run on 5.4.0-59-generic x86_64 GNU/Linux:
- Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
- gcc (Ubuntu 9.3.0-17ubuntu1~20.04) 9.3.0
- DejaGnu version 1.6.2
- Expect version 5.45.4
- Tcl version 8.6
- Native configuration: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Results show a few XFAIL in
gdb.threads/attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp. The existing
py-events.exp tests are skipped for native-gdbserver and fail for
native-extended-gdbserver, but the new tests pass with
native-extended-gdbserver when run without the existing tests.

For signals raised by a system call, provide the pid and user ID of
the sending process. For signals raised by a POSIX timer exparation,
provide the id of the timer. For signals raised by a POSIX message
queue, provide the id of the message queue. For SIGCHLD provide the
pid and user ID of the child process along with the exit status or
relevant signal number.

Whan using clang as compiler this compile step fails due to the
unknown option "-Wl,--build-id". This leaks the already created
temp-dir.
Fixed by compiling first, and creating the temp-dir only when the
compile succeeded.

We currently make use of the -J option to gfortran in order that
compiled modules should be placed in the correct output directory.
Obviously different compilers, e.g. flang, will have different options
to achieve the same result.
This commit makes it so we only add the -J flag when using a gcc
based (i.e. gfortran) compiler.
I had a look through the flang help page and tried a few likely
looking options, but couldn't find anything that seemed to do the same
thing, so, for now, I'm only adding an extra option when compiling
with gfortran.
This does mean that any compiler other than gfortran might run into
problems if running the testsuite in parallel due to modules of the
same name all being written to the same directory, and so possibly
overwriting each other.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_compile): Only add the -J option when using a
gcc based Fortran compiler, for example, flang does not support
this option.
One of the integer type patterns used by flang included a '*'
character which was not escaped.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/fortran.exp (fortran_int8): Escape '*' in pattern.
There is no default method for
gdbarch_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid, so calling it
unconditionally for fork events triggered an assertion failure on
platforms that do not support displaced stepping. To fix, only invoke
the method if the gdbarch supports displaced stepping.
Note that not all gdbarches support both displaced stepping and fork
events, so gdbarch validation does not require
gdbarch_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid for any gdbarch supporting
displaced stepping. However, the internal assertion in
gdbarch_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid should catch any gdbarches
which do support both but fail to provide this method.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* infrun.c (handle_inferior_event): Only call
gdbarch_displaced_step_restore_all_in_ptid if
gdbarch_supports_displaced_stepping is true.

gdb's Makefile currently excludes testsuite from the subdirectories to

'all'.
