Most files including gdbcmd.h currently rely on it to access things
actually declared in cli/cli-cmds.h (setlist, showlist, etc). To make
things easy, replace all includes of gdbcmd.h with includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h. This might lead to some unused includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h, but it's harmless, and much faster than going through
the 170 or so files by hand.

This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.

PR build/22395
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22395
Rather than just `unlimited' allow the integer set commands (or command
options) to define arbitrary keywords for the user to use, removing
hardcoded arrangements for the `unlimited' keyword.
Remove the confusingly named `var_zinteger', `var_zuinteger' and
`var_zuinteger_unlimited' `set'/`show' command variable types redefining
them in terms of `var_uinteger', `var_integer' and `var_pinteger', which
have the range of [0;UINT_MAX], [INT_MIN;INT_MAX], and [0;INT_MAX] each.
Following existing practice `var_pinteger' allows extra negative values
to be used, however unlike `var_zuinteger_unlimited' any number of such
values can be defined rather than just `-1'.
The "p" in `var_pinteger' stands for "positive", for the lack of a more
appropriate unambiguous letter, even though 0 obviously is not positive;
"n" would be confusing as to whether it stands for "non-negative" or
"negative".
Add a new structure, `literal_def', the entries of which define extra
keywords allowed for a command and numerical values they correspond to.
Those values are not verified against the basic range supported by the
underlying variable type, allowing extra values to be allowed outside
that range, which may or may not be individually made visible to the
user. An optional value translation is possible with the structure to
follow the existing practice for some commands where user-entered 0 is
internally translated to UINT_MAX or INT_MAX. Such translation can now
be arbitrary. Literals defined by this structure are automatically used
for completion as necessary.
So for example:
const literal_def integer_unlimited_literals[] =
{
{ "unlimited", INT_MAX, 0 },
{ nullptr }
};
defines an extra `unlimited' keyword and a user-visible 0 value, both of
which get translated to INT_MAX for the setting to be used with.
Similarly:
const literal_def zuinteger_unlimited_literals[] =
{
{ "unlimited", -1, -1 },
{ nullptr }
};
defines the same keyword and a corresponding user-visible -1 value that
is used for the requested setting. If the last member were omitted (or
set to `{}') here, then only the keyword would be allowed for the user
to enter and while -1 would still be used internally trying to enter it
as a part of a command would result in an "integer -1 out of range"
error.
Use said error message in all cases (citing the invalid value requested)
replacing "only -1 is allowed to set as unlimited" previously used for
`var_zuinteger_unlimited' settings only rather than propagating it to
`var_pinteger' type. It could only be used for the specific case where
a single extra `unlimited' keyword was defined standing for -1 and the
use of numeric equivalents is discouraged anyway as it is for historical
reasons only that they expose GDB internals, confusingly different
across variable types. Similarly update the "must be >= -1" Guile error
message.
Redefine Guile and Python parameter types in terms of the new variable
types and interpret extra keywords as Scheme keywords and Python strings
used to communicate corresponding parameter values. Do not add a new
PARAM_INTEGER Guile parameter type, however do handle the `var_integer'
variable type now, permitting existing parameters defined by GDB proper,
such as `listsize', to be accessed from Scheme code.
With these changes in place it should be trivial for a Scheme or Python
programmer to expand the syntax of the `make-parameter' command and the
`gdb.Parameter' class initializer to have arbitrary extra literals along
with their internal representation supplied.
Update the testsuite accordingly.

Now that filtered and unfiltered output can be treated identically, we
can unify the printf family of functions. This is done under the name
"gdb_printf". Most of this patch was written by script.
While looking into the language-capturing issue, I found another way
to crash gdb using parameters from Python:
(gdb) python print(gdb.parameter('endian'))
(This is related to PR python/12188, though this patch isn't going to
fix what that bug is really about.)
The problem here is that the global variable that underlies the
"endian" parameter is initialized to NULL. However, that's not a
valid value for an "enum" set/show parameter.
My understanding is that, in gdb, an "enum" parameter's underlying
variable must have a value that is "==" (not just strcmp-equal) to one
of the values coming from the enum array. This invariant is relied on
in various places.
I started this patch by fixing the problem with "endian". Then I
added some assertions to add_setshow_enum_cmd to try to catch other
problems of the same type.
This patch fixes all the problems that I found. I also looked at all
the calls to add_setshow_enum_cmd to ensure that they were all
included in the gdb I tested. I think they are: there are no calls in
nat-* files, or in remote-sim.c; and I was trying a build with all
targets, Python, and Guile enabled.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12188
In an earlier version of the pager rewrite series, it was important to
audit unfiltered output calls to see which were truly necessary.
This is no longer necessary, but it still seems like a decent cleanup
to change calls to avoid explicitly passing gdb_stdout. That is,
rather than using something like fprintf_unfiltered with gdb_stdout,
the code ought to use plain printf_unfiltered instead.
This patch makes this change. I went ahead and converted all the
_filtered calls I could find, as well, for the same clarity.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
String-like settings (var_string, var_filename, var_optional_filename,
var_string_noescape) currently take a pointer to a `char *` storage
variable (typically global) that holds the setting's value. I'd like to
"mordernize" this by changing them to use an std::string for storage.
An obvious reason is that string operations on std::string are often
easier to write than with C strings. And they avoid having to do any
manual memory management.
Another interesting reason is that, with `char *`, nullptr and an empty
string often both have the same meaning of "no value". String settings
are initially nullptr (unless initialized otherwise). But when doing
"set foo" (where `foo` is a string setting), the setting now points to
an empty string. For example, solib_search_path is nullptr at startup,
but points to an empty string after doing "set solib-search-path". This
leads to some code that needs to check for both to check for "no value".
Or some code that converts back and forth between NULL and "" when
getting or setting the value. I find this very error-prone, because it
is very easy to forget one or the other. With std::string, we at least
know that the variable is not "NULL". There is only one way of
representing an empty string setting, that is with an empty string.
I was wondering whether the distinction between NULL and "" would be
important for some setting, but it doesn't seem so. If that ever
happens, it would be more C++-y and self-descriptive to use
optional<string> anyway.
Actually, there's one spot where this distinction mattered, it's in
init_history, for the test gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp. init_history
sets the history filename to the default ".gdb_history" if it sees that
the setting was never set - if history_filename is nullptr. If
history_filename is an empty string, it means the setting was explicitly
cleared, so it leaves it as-is. With the change to std::string, this
distinction doesn't exist anymore. This can be fixed by moving the code
that chooses a good default value for history_filename to
_initialize_top. This is ran before -ex commands are processed, so an
-ex command can then clear that value if needed (what
gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp tests).
Another small improvement, in my opinion is that we can now easily
give string parameters initial values, by simply initializing the global
variables, instead of xstrdup-ing it in the _initialize function.
In Python and Guile, when registering a string-like parameter, we
allocate (with new) an std::string that is owned by the param_smob (in
Guile) and the parmpy_object (in Python) objects.
This patch started by changing all relevant add_setshow_* commands to
take an `std::string *` instead of a `char **` and fixing everything
that failed to build. That includes of course all string setting
variable and their uses.
string_option_def now uses an std::string also, because there's a
connection between options and settings (see
add_setshow_cmds_for_options).
The add_path function in source.c is really complex and twisted, I'd
rather not try to change it to work on an std::string right now.
Instead, I added an overload that copies the std:string to a `char *`
and back. This means more copying, but this is not used in a hot path
at all, so I think it is acceptable.

cmd_list_element can contain a pointer to data that can be set and / or
shown. This is achieved with the void* VAR member which points to the
data that can be accessed, while the VAR_TYPE member (of type enum
var_types) indicates how to interpret the data pointed to.
With this pattern, the user of the cmd_list_element needs to know what
is the storage type associated with a given VAR_TYPES in order to do
the proper casting. No automatic safeguard is available to prevent
miss-use of the pointer. Client code typically looks something like:
switch (c->var_type)
{
case var_zuinteger:
unsigned int v = *(unsigned int*) c->var;
...
break;
case var_boolean:
bool v = *(bool *) c->var;
...
break;
...
}
This patch proposes to add an abstraction around the var_types and void*
pointer pair. The abstraction is meant to prevent the user from having
to handle the cast and verify that the data is read or written as a type
that is coherent with the setting's var_type. This is achieved by
introducing the struct setting which exposes a set of templated get /
set member functions. The template parameter is the type of the
variable that holds the referred variable.
Using those accessors allows runtime checks to be inserted in order to
ensure that the data pointed to has the expected type. For example,
instantiating the member functions with bool will yield something
similar to:
const bool &get<bool> () const
{
gdb_assert (m_var_type == var_boolean);
gdb_assert (m_var != nullptr);
return *static_cast<bool *> (m_var);
}
void set<bool> (const bool &var)
{
gdb_assert (m_var_type == var_boolean);
gdb_assert (m_var != nullptr);
*static_cast<bool *> (m_var) = var;
}
Using the new abstraction, our initial example becomes:
switch (c->var_type)
{
case var_zuinteger:
unsigned int v = c->var->get<unsigned int> ();
...
break;
case var_boolean:
bool v = c->var->get<bool> ();
...
break;
...
}
While the call site is still similar, the introduction of runtime checks
help ensure correct usage of the data.
In order to avoid turning the bulk of add_setshow_cmd_full into a
templated function, and following a suggestion from Pedro Alves, a
setting can be constructed from a pre validated type erased reference to
a variable. This is what setting::erased_args is used for.
Introducing an opaque abstraction to describe a setting will also make
it possible to use callbacks to retrieve or set the value of the setting
on the fly instead of pointing to a static chunk of memory. This will
be done added in a later commit.
Given that a cmd_list_element may or may not reference a setting, the
VAR and VAR_TYPES members of the struct are replaced with a
gdb::optional<setting> named VAR.
Few internal function signatures have been modified to take into account
this new abstraction:
-The functions value_from_setting, str_value_from_setting and
get_setshow_command_value_string used to have a 'cmd_list_element *'
parameter but only used it for the VAR and VAR_TYPE member. They now
take a 'const setting &' parameter instead.
- Similarly, the 'void *' and a 'enum var_types' parameters of
pascm_param_value and gdbpy_parameter_value have been replaced with a
'const setting &' parameter.
No user visible change is expected after this patch.
Tested on GNU/Linux x86_64, with no regression noticed.

I don't understand what the sfunc function type in
cmd_list_element::function is for. Compared to cmd_simple_func_ftype,
it has an extra cmd_list_element parameter, giving the callback access
to the cmd_list_element for the command being invoked. This allows
registering the same callback with many commands, and alter the behavior
using the cmd_list_element's context.
From the comment in cmd_list_element, it sounds like at some point it
was the callback function type for set and show functions, hence the
"s". But nowadays, it's used for many more commands that need to access
the cmd_list_element object (see add_catch_command for example).
I don't really see the point of having sfunc at all, since do_sfunc is
just a trivial shim that changes the order of the arguments. All
commands using sfunc could just as well set cmd_list_element::func to
their callback directly.
Therefore, remove the sfunc field in cmd_list_element and everything
that goes with it. Rename cmd_const_sfunc_ftype to cmd_func_ftype and
use it for cmd_list_element::func, as well as for the add_setshow
commands.

Use the set_show_commands objects returned by the add_setshow functions
in add_setshow_generic. This lets us avoid looking up the commands
after creating them, instead using the return objects directly.
Make add_setshow_generic return a set_show_commands object, which is a
bit nicer than returning both commands by parameter.
Finally, store using that object in param_smob.

of New Year procedure...
gdb/ChangeLog
Update copyright year range in copyright header of all GDB files.
Currently, a user can define an alias, but cannot have default
arguments for this alias.
This patch modifies the 'alias' command so that default args can
be provided.
(gdb) h alias
Define a new command that is an alias of an existing command.
Usage: alias [-a] [--] ALIAS = COMMAND [DEFAULT-ARGS...]
ALIAS is the name of the alias command to create.
COMMAND is the command being aliased to.
Options:
-a
Specify that ALIAS is an abbreviation of COMMAND.
Abbreviations are not used in command completion..
GDB will automatically prepend the provided DEFAULT-ARGS to the list
of arguments explicitly provided when using ALIAS.
Use "help aliases" to list all user defined aliases and their default args.
Examples:
Make "spe" an alias of "set print elements":
alias spe set print elements
Make "elms" an alias of "elements" in the "set print" command:
alias -a set print elms set print elements
Make "btf" an alias of "backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main" :
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Make "wLapPeu" an alias of 2 nested "with":
alias wLapPeu = with language pascal -- with print elements unlimited --
(gdb)
The way 'default-args' is implemented makes it trivial to set default
args also for GDB commands (such as "backtrace") and for GDB pre-defined
aliases (such as "bt"). It was however deemed better to not allow to
define default arguments for pre-defined commands and aliases, to avoid
users believing that e.g. default args for "backtrace" would apply to "bt".
If needed, default-args could be allowed for GDB predefined commands
and aliases by adding a command
'set default-args GDB_COMMAND_OR_PREDEFINED_ALIAS [DEFAULT-ARGS...]'.
* 'alias' command now has a completer that helps to complete:
- ALIAS (if the user defines an alias after a prefix),
- the aliased COMMAND
- the possible options for the aliased COMMAND.
* Help and apropos commands show the definitions of the aliases
that have default arguments, e.g.
(gdb) help backtrace
backtrace, btf, where, bt
alias btf = backtrace -full -past-entry -past-main
Print backtrace of all stack frames, or innermost COUNT frames.
Usage: backtrace [OPTION]... [QUALIFIER]... [COUNT | -COUNT]
Options:
-entry-values no|only|preferred|if-needed|both|compact|default
Set printing of function arguments at function entry.

This commit applies all changes made after running the gdb/copyright.py
script.
Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid
copyright header
(gdb/unittests/basic_string_view/element_access/char/empty.cc).
As the file was copied from GCC's libstdc++-v3 testsuite, this commit
leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
This changes gdbscm_scm_to_string to return a unique_xmalloc_ptr and
then fixes all the callers. This allows for the removal of some
cleanups.

This changes gdbscm_exception_message_to_string to return a
unique_xmalloc_ptr, allowing for the removal of some cleanups.
unique_xmalloc_ptr was chosen because at the root of the call chains
is a function from Guile that returns a malloc'd string.

This patch is mostly extracted from Pedro's C++ branch. It adds explicit
casts from integer to enum types, where it is really the intention to do
so. This could be because we are ...
* iterating on enum values (we need to iterate on an equivalent integer)
* converting from a value read from bytes (dwarf attribute, agent
expression opcode) to the equivalent enum
* reading the equivalent integer value from another language (Python/Guile)
An exception to that is the casts in regcache.c. It seems to me like
struct regcache's register_status field could be a pointer to an array of
enum register_status. Doing so would waste a bit of memory (4 bytes
used by the enum vs 1 byte used by the current signed char, for each
register). If we switch to C++11 one day, we can define the underlying
type of an enum type, so we could have the best of both worlds.

This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from
this:
~~~
volatile gdb_exception ex;
TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
if (ex.reason < 0)
{
}
~~~
to this:
~~~
TRY
{
}
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
~~~
Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and
declaring the caught exception in the catch block.
This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when
building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode
(using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step.
TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY
and the CATCH blocks, like:
TRY
{
}
// some code here.
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch.
By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block
scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile
exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more
directly to C++'s catch blocks.
The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was
done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual
editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places
needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were
using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases
where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH
after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB
still builds at each incremental step.
END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons:
First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which
requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere.
Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for
block, like:
#define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \
for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \
exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \
EXCEPTION = exception_none)
would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90,
which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code.
Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as
long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH
block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every
frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will
be done in END_CATCH.
After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until
cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will
save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH
catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so
that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist.
IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a
newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering
C++.
