For instance: (gdb) b foo Breakpoint 1 at 0x40177e: file foo.adb, line 5. (gdb) cont Continuing. Breakpoint 1, foo () at foo.adb:5 5 Put_Line ("Hello World."); -- STOP (gdb) n Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00401782 in foo () at foo.adb:5 5 Put_Line ("Hello World."); -- STOP There are two issues: 1. While trying to re-insert a breakpoint that is still inserted in memory, insert_bp_location wipes out the breakpoint location's shadow_contents. As a consequence, we cannot restore the proper instruction when removing the breakpoint anymore. That's why the inferior's behavior changes when trying to resume after the breakpoint was hit. 2. mem-break.c:default_memory_insert_breakpoint passes a breakpoint location's shadow_contents as the buffer for a memory read. This reveals a limitation of the various memory-read target functions. This patch documents this limitation and adjust the two calls that seem to hit that limitation. gdb/ChangeLog: * breakpoint.c (breakpoint_xfer_memory): Add assertion. Update function description. (insert_bp_location): Do not wipe bl->target_info out. * mem-break.c: #include "gdb_string.h". (default_memory_insert_breakpoint): Do not call target_read_memory with a pointer to the breakpoint's shadow_contents buffer. Use a local buffer instead. * m32r-tdep.c (m32r_memory_insert_breakpoint): Ditto. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index 1a755081158..875d6757d49 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,14 @@ +2012-03-15 Joel Brobecker + + * breakpoint.c (breakpoint_xfer_memory): Add assertion. + Update function description. + (insert_bp_location): Do not wipe bl->target_info out. + * mem-break.c: #include "gdb_string.h". + (default_memory_insert_breakpoint): Do not call target_read_memory + with a pointer to the breakpoint's shadow_contents buffer.
