gdb/testsuite: Fix race in gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp
Pedro Alves warned me that there is a race in
gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp making the test sometimes fail on his
setup. This can be reliably reproduced using :
make check-read1 TESTS="gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp"
The relevant part of the gdb.log file is:
return 35
Function 'foo' does not follow the target calling convention.
If you continue, setting the return value will probably lead to unpredictable behaviors.
Make foo return now? (y or n) PASS: gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp: return 35
n
Not confirmed
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp: finish
The issue is that when doing the test for "return 35", the DejaGnu test
sends "n" (to tell GDB not to perform the return action) but never
consumes the "Not confirmed" acknowledgment sent by GDB. Later, when
trying to do the next test, DejaGnu tries to match the leftover output
from the "return" test. As this output is not expected, the test fails.
Fix by using gdb_test to send the "n" answer and match the confirmation
and consume all output to the prompt.
Also do minor adjustments to the main regex:
- Remove the leading ".*" which is not required.
- Ensure that the "?" from the question is properly escaped.
Tested on x86_64-gnu-linux, using
- make check TESTS="gdb.dwarf2/calling-convention.exp"

After some debugging and bisecting, to my surprise the bug was
introduced by commit
183be222 ("gdb, gdbserver: make target_waitstatus

The problem occurs in handle_exception. Previously the code did:
- ourstatus->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED;
[...]
case EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT:
[...]
- ourstatus->kind = TARGET_WAITKIND_SPURIOUS;
[...]
/* FALLTHROUGH */
case STATUS_WX86_BREAKPOINT:
DEBUG_EXCEPTION_SIMPLE ("EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT");
- ourstatus->value.sig = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP;
[...]
- last_sig = ourstatus->value.sig;
However, in the new code, the fallthrough case does:
+ ourstatus->set_stopped (GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP);
... which changes the 'kind' in 'ourstatus' after falling through.
This patch rearranges the 'last_sig' setting to more closely match
what was done before (this is probably not strictly needed but also
seemed harmless), and removes the fall-through in the
'ignore_first_breakpoint' case when __x86_64__ is defined.

gdb: change subfile::line_vector to an std::vector
Change this field to an std::vector to facilitate memory management.
Since the linetable_entry array is copied into the symtab resulting from
the subfile, it is possible to change it without changing how symtab
stores the linetable entries (which would be a much larger change).
There is a small change in buildsym_compunit::record_line to avoid
accessing a now invalid linetable_entry. Before this patch, we keep a
pointer to the last linetable entry, pop it from the vector, and then
read last->line. It works with the manually-maintained array, but since
we now use std::vector::pop_back, I am afraid that it could be flagged
as an invalid access by the various static / dynamic analysis tools to
access the linetable_entry object after popping it from the vector.
Instead, record just the line number in an optional and use it.
There are substantial changes in xcoffread.c that simplify the code, but
I can't test them. I was hesitant to do this change because of that,
but I decided to send it anyway. I don't think that an almost dead
platform should hold back improving the code in the common parts of GDB.
The changes in xcoffread.c are:
- Make arrange_linetable "arrange" the linetable passed as a parameter,
instead of returning possibly a new one, possibly the same one.
- In the "Process main file's line numbers.", I'm not too sure what
happens. We get the lintable from "main_subfile", "arrange" it, but
then assign the result to the current subfile, obtained with
get_current_subfile. I assume that the current subfile is also the
main one, so now I just call arrange_linetable on the main subfile's
line table.
- Remove that weird "Useless if!!!" FIXME comment. It's been there
forever, but the "if" is still there, so I guess the "if" can stay

"Finalize" the DWARF index in the background
After scanning the CUs, the DWARF indexer merges all the data into a
single vector, canonicalizing C++ names as it proceeds. While not
necessarily single-threaded, this process is currently done in just
one thread, to keep memory costs lower.
However, this work is all done without reference to any data outside
of the indexes. This patch improves the apparent performance of GDB
by moving it to the background. All uses of the index are then made
to wait for this process to complete.
In our ongoing example, this reduces the scanning time on gdb itself
to 0.173937 (wall). Recall that before this patch, the time was
0.668923; and psymbol reader does this in 1.598869. That is, at the

Introduce thread-safe handling for complaints
This introduces a new class that can be used to make the "complaint"

collects complaints, and then prints them all when the object is

This approach requires some locks. I couldn't think of a better way

It seemed to me that only GDB developers are likely to enable

(before any locks are required), I reasoned that any performance
degradation that would result here would be fine.
As an aside about complaints -- are they useful at all? I just ignore
them, myself, since mostly they seem to indicate compiler problems

Introduce the new DWARF index class
This patch introduces the new DWARF index class. It is called
"cooked" to contrast against a "raw" index, which is mapped from disk
without extra effort.
Nothing constructs a cooked index yet. The essential idea here is
that index entries are created via the "add" method; then when all the
entries have been read, they are "finalize"d -- name canonicalization
is performed and the entries are added to a sorted vector.
Entries use the DWARF name (DW_AT_name) or linkage name, not the full
name as is done for partial symbols.
These two facets -- the short name and the deferred canonicalization
-- help improve the performance of this approach. This will become
clear in later patches, when parallelization is added.
Some special code is needed for Ada, because GNAT only emits mangled
("encoded", in the Ada lingo) names, and so we reconstruct the
hierarchical structure after the fact. This is also done in the
finalization phase.
One other aspect worth noting is that the way the "main" function is
found is different in the new code. Currently gdb will notice
DW_AT_main_subprogram, but won't recognize "main" during reading --
this is done later, via explicit symbol lookup. This is done
differently in the new code so that finalization can be done in the
background without then requiring a synchronization to look up the
symbol.

Statically examine abbrev properties
The new DIE scanner works more or less along the lines indicated by

While working on this, I noticed that whether a DIE is interesting is
a static property of the DIE's abbrev. It also turns out that many
abbrevs imply a static size for the DIE data, and additionally that
for many abbrevs, the sibling offset is stored at a constant offset
from the start of the DIE.
This patch changes the abbrev reader to analyze each abbrev and stash
the results on the abbrev. These combine to speed up the new indexer.
If the "interesting" flag is false, GDB knows to skip the DIE
immediately. If the sibling offset is statically known, skipping can
be done without reading any attributes; and in some other cases, the
DIE can be skipped using simple arithmetic.

Introduce DWARF abbrev cache
The replacement for the DWARF psymbol reader works in a somewhat
different way. The current reader reads and stores all the DIEs that
might be interesting. Then, if it is missing a DIE, it re-scans the
CU and reads them all. This approach is used for both intra- and
inter-CU references.
I instrumented the partial DIE hash to see how frequently it was used:
[ 0] ->
1538165
[ 1] -> 4912
[ 2] -> 96102
[ 3] -> 175
[ 4] -> 244
That is, most DIEs are never used, and some are looked up twice -- but
this is just an artifact of the implementation of
partial_die_info::fixup, which may do two lookups.
Based on this, the new implementation doesn't try to store any DIEs,
but instead just re-scans them on demand. In order to do this,
though, it is convenient to have a cache of DWARF abbrevs. This way,
if a second CU is needed to resolve an inter-CU reference, the abbrevs
for that CU need only be computed a single time.

gdb/fortran: rewrite intrinsic handling and add some missing overloads
The operators FLOOR, CEILING, CMPLX, LBOUND, UBOUND, and SIZE accept
(some only with Fortran 2003) the optional parameter KIND. This
parameter determines the kind of the associated return value. So far,
implementation of this kind parameter has been missing in GDB.
Additionally, the one argument overload for the CMPLX intrinsic function
was not yet available.
This patch adds overloads for all above mentioned functions to the
Fortran intrinsics handling in GDB.
It re-writes the intrinsic function handling section to use the helper
methods wrap_unop_intrinsic/wrap_binop_intrinsic/wrap_triop_intrinsic.
These methods define the action taken when a Fortran intrinsic function
is called with a certain amount of arguments (1/2/3). The helper methods
fortran_wrap2_kind and fortran_wrap3_kind have been added as equivalents
to the existing wrap and wrap2 methods.
After adding more overloads to the intrinsics handling, some of the
operation names were no longer accurate. E.g. UNOP_FORTRAN_CEILING
has been renamed to FORTRAN_CEILING as it is no longer a purely unary
intrinsic function. This patch also introduces intrinsic functions with
one, two, or three arguments to the Fortran parser and the
UNOP_OR_BINOP_OR_TERNOP_INTRINSIC token has been added.

gdb/fortran: Change GDB print for fortran default types
Currently, when asking GDB to print the type of a Fortran default type
such as INTEGER or REAL, GDB will return the default name of that type,
e.g. "integer"/"real":
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
(gdb) ptype real
type = real
For LOGICAL and COMPLEX it would return the actual underlying types
(gdb) ptype logical
type = logical*4
(gdb) ptype complex
type = complex*4
Similarly, GDB would print the default integer type for the underlying
default type:
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer
(gdb) ptype real*4
type = real
(gdb) ptype logical
type = logical*4
(gdb) ptype complex*4
type = complex*4
This is inconsistent and a bit confusing. Both options somehow indicate
what the internal underlying type for the default type is - but I think
the logical/complex version is a bit clearer.
Consider again:
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
This indicates to a user that the type of "integer" is Fortran's default
integer type. Without examining "ptype integer*4" I would expect, that
any variable declared integer in the actual code would also fit into a
GDB integer. But, since we cannot adapt out internal types to the
compiler flags used at compile time of a debugged binary, this might be
wrong. Consider debugging Fortran code compiled with GNU and e.g. the
"-fdefault-integer-8" flag. In this case the gfortran default integer
would be integer*8 while GDB internally still would use a builtin_integer,
so an integer of the size of an integer*4 type. On the other hand having
GDB print
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer*4
makes this clearer. I would still be tempted to fit a variable declared
integer in the code into a GDB integer - but at least ptype would
directly tell me what is going on. Note, that when debugging a binary
compiled with "-fdefault-integer-8" a user will always see the actual
underlying type of any variable declared "integer" in the Fortran code.
So having the code
program test
integer :: a = 5
print *, a ! breakpt
end program test
will, when breaking at breakpt print
(gdb) ptype var
type = integer(kind=4)
or
(gdb) ptype var
type = integer(kind=8)
depending on the compiler flag.
This patch changes the outputs for the REAL and INTEGER default types to
actually print the internally used type over the default type name.
The new behavior for the above examples is:
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer*4
Existing testcases have been adapted to reflect the new behavior.

gdb/fortran: clean-up Fortran intrinsic types
The currently implemented intrinsic type handling for Fortran missed some
tokens and their parsing. While still not all Fortran type kinds are
implemented this patch at least makes the currently handled types
consistent. As an example for what this patch does, consider the
intrinsic type INTEGER. GDB implemented the handling of the
keywords "integer" and "integer_2" but missed "integer_4" and "integer_8"
even though their corresponding internal types were already available as
the Fortran builtin types builtin_integer and builtin_integer_s8.
Similar problems applied to LOGICAL, REAL, and COMPLEX. This patch adds
all missing tokens and their parsing. Whenever a section containing the
type handling was touched, it also was reordered to be in a more easy to
grasp order. All INTEGER/REAL/LOGICAL/COMPLEX types were grouped
together and ordered ascending in their size making a missing one more
easy to spot.
Before this change GDB would print the following when tyring to use the
INTEGER keywords:
(gdb) set language fortran
(gdb) ptype integer*1
unsupported kind 1 for type integer
(gdb) ptype integer_1
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer*2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer_2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer
(gdb) ptype integer_4
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer*8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer_8
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
With this patch all keywords are available and the GDB prints:
(gdb) set language fortran
(gdb) ptype integer*1
type = integer*1
(gdb) ptype integer_1
type = integer*1
(gdb) ptype integer*2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer_2
type = integer*2
(gdb) ptype integer*4
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer_4
type = integer*4
(gdb) ptype integer*8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer_8
type = integer*8
(gdb) ptype integer
type = integer
The described changes have been applied to INTEGER, REAL, COMPLEX,
and LOGICAL. Existing testcases have been adapted to reflect the
new behavior. Tests for formerly missing types have been added.

gdb/fortran: change default logical type to builtin_logical
According to the Fortran standard, logical is of the size of a
'single numeric storage unit' (just like real and integer). For
gfortran, flang and ifx/ifort this storage unit (or the default
logical type) is of size kind 4, actually occupying 4 bytes of
storage, and so the default type for logical expressions in
Fortran should probably also be Logical*4 and not Logical*2. I
adapted GDB's behavior to be in line with
gfortran/ifort/ifx/flang.

gdb/fortran: fix complex type in Fortran builtin types
Before this patch things like
(gdb) ptype complex*8
complex*16
(gdb) ptype complex*4
complex*8
were possible in GDB, which seems confusing for a user. The reason
is a mixup in the implementation of the Fortran COMPLEX type. In
Fortran the "*X" after a type would normally (I don't think this
is language required) specify the type's size in memory. For the
COMPLEX type the kind parameters usually (at least for GNU, Intel, Flang)
specify not the size of the whole type but the size of the individual
two REALs used to form the COMPLEX. Thus, a COMPLEX*4 will usually
consist of two REAL*4s. Internally this type was represented by a
builtin_complex_s8 - but here I think the s8 actually meant the raw
size of the type. This is confusing and I renamed the types (e.g.
builting_complex_s8 became builtin_complex_s4 according to its most
common useage) and their printed names to their language equivalent.
Additionally, I added the default COMPLEX type "COMPLEX" being the same
as a COMPLEX*4 (as is normally the case) and removed the latter. I added
a few tests for this new behavior as well.
The new behavior is
(gdb) ptype complex*8
complex*8
(gdb) ptype complex*4
complex*4

The problem is that the bar breakpoint ends up at an unexpected location
because:
- the synthetic debug info is incomplete and doesn't provide line info
for the prologue part of the function, so consequently gdb uses the i386
port prologue skipper to get past the prologue
- the i386 port prologue skipper doesn't get past a get_pc_thunk call.
Work around this in the test-case by breaking on bar_label instead.
