Currently inferior memory is allocated by inferior mmap() but it is never deallocated; despite the injected objfile incl. its symbols is freed. This was intentional so that one can do for example: inferior: char *str = "foo"; GDB: (gdb) compile code str = "bar"; I believe later patches will be needed to introduce full control over keeping vs. discarding the injected module as being discussed in: compile: objfiles lifetime UI https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2015-04/msg00051.html Message-ID: <20150429135735.GA16974@host1.jankratochvil.net> https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2015-05/msg00007.html As decided by Phil it is better not to leak inferior pages as users can workaround the issue above for example by: (gdb) compile code str = strdup ("bar"); I have checked that in fact gdb/doc/ (written by Phil) already expects the injected code will be unmapped so that does not need to be changed: compile code int ff = 5; p = &ff; In this example, @code{p} would point to @code{ff} when the @code{compile} command is executing the source code provided to it. However, as variables in the (example) program persist with their assigned values, the variable @code{p} would point to an invalid location when the command exists. gdb/ChangeLog 2015-04-28 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> * arch-utils.c (default_infcall_munmap): New. * arch-utils.h (default_infcall_munmap): New declaration. * compile/compile-object-load.c (struct munmap_list, munmap_list_add) (munmap_list_free, munmap_listp_free_cleanup): New.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
