Make ANSI terminal escape sequences work in TUI
PR tui/14126 notes that ANSI terminal escape sequences don't affect
the colors shown in the TUI. A simple way to see this is to try the
extended-prompt example from the gdb manual.
Curses does not pass escape sequences through to the terminal.
Instead, it replaces non-printable characters with a visible
representation, for example "^[" for the ESC character.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a simple ANSI terminal sequence
parser to gdb. These sequences are decoded and those that are
recognized are turned into the appropriate curses calls.
The curses approach to color handling is unusual and so there are some
oddities in the implementation.
Standard curses has no notion of the default colors of the terminal.
So, if you set the foreground color, it is not possible to reset it --
you have to pick some other color. ncurses provides an extension to
handle this, so this patch updates configure and uses it when
available.
Second, in curses, colors always come in pairs: you cannot set just
the foreground. This patch handles this by tracking actually-used
pairs of colors and keeping a table of these for reuse.
Third, there are a limited number of such pairs available. In this
patch, if you try to use too many color combinations, gdb will just
ignore some color changes.
Finally, in addition to limiting the number of color pairs, curses
also limits the number of colors. This means that, when using
extended 8- or 24-bit color sequences, it may be possible to exhaust
the curses color table.
I am very sour on the curses design now.
I do not know how to write a test for this, so I did not.

Add output styles to gdb
This adds some output styling to the CLI.
A style is currently a foreground color, a background color, and an
intensity (dim or bold). (This list could be expanded depending on
terminal capabilities.)
A style can be applied while printing. For ui-out, this is done by
passing the style constant as an argument. For low-level cases,
fprintf_styled and fputs_styled are provided.
Users can control the style via a number of new set/show commands. In
the interest of not typing many nearly-identical documentation
strings, I automated this. On the down side, this is not very
i18n-friendly.
I've chose some default colors to use. I think it would be good to
enable this by default, so that when users start the new gdb, they
will see the new feature.
Stylizing is done if TERM is set and is not "dumb". This could be
improved when the TUI is available by using the curses has_colors
call. That is, the lowest layer could call this without committing to
using curses everywhere; see my other patch for TUI colorizing.
I considered adding a new "set_style" method to ui_file. However,
because the implementation had to interact with the pager code, I
didn't take this approach. But, one idea might be to put the isatty
check there and then have it defer to the lower layers.

gdb: Allow struct fields named double
The 64-bit RISC-V target currently models the floating point registers
as having the following type:
union riscv_double
{
builtin_type_ieee_single float;
builtin_type_ieee_double double;
}
Notice the choice of names for the fields of this struct, possibly not
ideal choices, as these are not valid field names in C. However, this
type is only ever defined within GDB (or in the target description),
and no restriction seems to exist on the field names in that case.
The problem though is that currently:
(gdb) info registers $ft0
ft0 {float = 0, double = 0} (raw 0x0000000000000000)
(gdb) p $ft0.float
$1 = 0
(gdb) p $ft0.double
A syntax error in expression, near `double'.
We can access the 'float' field, but not the 'double' field. This is
because the string 'double' is handled differently to the string
'float' in c-exp.y.
In both cases the string '$ft0' is parsed as a VARIABLE expression.
In the 'float' case, the string 'float' becomes a generic NAME token
in 'lex_one_token', which then allows the rule "exp '.' name" to match
and the field name lookup to occur.
The 'double' case is different. In order to allow parsing of the type
string 'long double', the 'double' string becomes the token
DOUBLE_KEYWORD. At this point there's no rule to match "exp '.'
DOUBLE_KEYWORD", so we can never lookup the field named 'double'.
We could rename the fields for RISC-V, and maybe that would be the
best solution. However, its not hard to allow for fields named
'double', which is what this patch does.
A new case is added to the 'field_name' rule to match the
DOUBLE_KEYWORD, and create a suitable 'struct stoken'. With this done
the "exp '.' field_name" pattern can now match, and we can lookup the
double field.
With this patch in place I now see this behaviour:
(gdb) info registers $ft0
ft0 {float = 0, double = 0} (raw 0x0000000000000000)
(gdb) p $ft0.float
$1 = 0
(gdb) p $ft0.double
$2 = 0
I've gone ahead and handled INT_KEYWORD, LONG, SHORT, SIGNED_KEYWORD,
and UNSIGNED as well within field_name.
I've added a new test for this functionality.
This change was tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux with no regressions.

There are a couple of problems with the existing code, that are all
related.
In riscv_call_arg_struct we incorrectly rounded up the size of a
structure argument. This is unnecessary, and caused GDB to read too
much data into the output buffer when extracting a struct return
value.
In fixing this it became clear that we were incorrectly assuming that
any value being placed in a register (or read from a register) would
always access the entire register. This is not true, for example a
9-byte struct on a 64-bit target places 8-bytes in one registers and
1-byte in a second register (assuming available registers). To handle
this I switch from using cooked_read to cooked_read_part.
Finally, when processing basic integer return value types these are
extended to xlen sized types and then passed in registers. We
currently don't handle this type expansion in riscv_return_value, but
we do in riscv_push_dummy_call. The result is that small integer
types (like char) result in a full xlen sized register being written
into the output buffer, which results in buffer overflow. To address
this issue we now create a value of the expanded type and use this
values contents buffer to hold the return value before casting the
value down to the smaller expected type.
This patch resolves all of the valgrind issues I have found so far,
and causes no regressions. Tested against RV32/64 with and without
floating point support.

Fix various tests to use -no-pie linker flag when needed
Various tests use test code written in i386 / x86_64 assembly that cannot

The solution is to use -no-pie linker flag, however, such flag may not

To handle this, introduce a new flag to gdb_compile - nopie - which

Workaround a FreeBSD kernel bug resulting in spurious SIGTRAP events.
The ptrace command PT_LWPINFO to request detailed information about a

True breakpoint and single-step events will never report another event

the order of the results depends on the comparison between different directories,
leading to results that can change depending on these directories.

gdb: Add default frame methods to gdbarch
Supply default gdbarch methods for gdbarch_dummy_id,
gdbarch_unwind_pc, and gdbarch_unwind_sp. This patch doesn't actually
convert any targets to use these methods, and so, there will be no
user visible changes after this commit.
The implementations for default_dummy_id and default_unwind_sp are
fairly straight forward, these just take on the pattern used by most
targets. Once these default methods are in place then most targets
will be able to switch over.
The implementation for default_unwind_pc is also fairly straight
forward, but maybe needs some explanation.
This patch has gone through a number of iterations:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00165.html
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-03/msg00306.html
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-06/msg00090.html
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-09/msg00127.html
and the implementation of default_unwind_pc has changed over this
time. Originally, I took an implementation like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
return frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
}
This is basically a clone of default_unwind_sp, but using $pc. It was
pointed out that we could potentially do better, and in version 2 the
implementation became:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
struct type *type;
int pc_regnum;
CORE_ADDR addr;
struct value *value;
pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
value = frame_unwind_register_value (next_frame, pc_regnum);
type = builtin_type (gdbarch)->builtin_func_ptr;
addr = extract_typed_address (value_contents_all (value), type);
addr = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, addr);
release_value (value);
value_free (value);
return addr;
}
The idea was to try split out some of the steps of unwinding the $pc,
steps that are on some (or many) targets no-ops, and so allow targets
that do override these methods, to make use of default_unwind_pc.
This implementation remained in place for version 2, 3, and 4.
However, I realised that I'd made a mistake, most targets simply use
frame_unwind_register_unsigned to unwind the $pc, and this throws an
error if the register value is optimized out or unavailable. My new
proposed implementation doesn't do this, I was going to end up
breaking many targets.
I considered duplicating the code from frame_unwind_register_unsigned
that throws the errors into my new default_unwind_pc, however, this
felt really overly complex. So, what I instead went with was to
simply revert back to using frame_unwind_register_unsigned. Almost
all existing targets already use this. Some of the ones that don't can
be converted to, which means almost all targets could end up using the
default.
One addition I have made over the version 1 implementation is to add a
call to gdbarch_addr_bits_remove. For most targets this is a no-op,
but for a handful, having this call in place will mean that they can
use the default method. After all this, the new default_unwind_pc now
looks like this:
CORE_ADDR
default_unwind_pc (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct frame_info *next_frame)
{
int pc_regnum = gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch);
CORE_ADDR pc = frame_unwind_register_unsigned (next_frame, pc_regnum);
pc = gdbarch_addr_bits_remove (gdbarch, pc);
return pc;

sim: Don't overwrite stored errno in sim_syscall_multi
The host syscall callback mechanism should take care of updating the
errcode within the CB_SYSCALL struct, and we should not be adjusting
the error code once the syscall has completed. We especially, should
not be rewriting the syscall errcode based on the value of errno some
time after running the host syscall, as there is no guarantee that
errno has not be overwritten.
To perform a syscall we call cb_syscall (in syscall.c). To return
from cb_syscall control passes through one of two exit paths these are
labeled FinishSyscall and ErrorFinish and are reached using goto
statements scattered throughout the cb_syscall function.
In FinishSyscall we store the syscall result in 'sc->result', and the
error code is transated to target encoding, and stored in
'sc->errcode'.
In ErrorFinish, we again store the syscall result in 'sc->result', and
fill in 'sc->errcode' by fetching the actual errno from the host with
the 'cb->get_errno' callback.
In both cases 'sc->errcode' will have been filled in with an
appropriate value.
Further, if we look at a specific syscall example, CB_SYS_open, in
this case the first thing we do is fetch the path to open from the
target with 'get_path', if this fails then the errcode is returned,
and we jump to FinishSyscall. Notice that in this case, no host
syscall may have been performed, for example a failure to read the
path to open out of simulated memory can return EINVAL without
performing any host syscall. Given that no host syscall has been
performed, reading the host errno makes absolutely no sense.
This commit removes from sim_syscall_multi the rewriting of
sc->errcode based on the value of errno, and instead relies on the
value stored in the cb_syscall.

sigcontext.h definitions in an abi compatible way which are in conflict
with the linux definitions when both headers are included.
Since old linux headers or old libc headers may not have the necessary
definitions, gdb has to replicate the definitions it relies on anyway.
Which is fine since all definitions must be ABI stable. For linux apis
that are not available via libc headers, replicating the definitions in
gdb is the most reliable way to use them.
Note: asm/ptrace.h includes asm/sigcontext.h in some versions of linux
headers, which is just as problematic and should be fixed in linux.

* nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.h: Include signal.h instead of

Factorize killing the children in linux-ptrace.c, and fix a 'process leak'.
Running the gdb testsuite under Valgrind started to fail after 100+ tests,
due to out of memory caused by lingering processes.
The lingering processes are caused by the combination
of a limitation in Valgrind signal handling when using PTRACE_TRACEME
and a (minor) bug in GDB.
The Valgrind limitation is : when a process is ptraced and raises
a signal, Valgrind will replace the raised signal by SIGSTOP as other
signals are masked by Valgrind when executing a system call.
Removing this limitation seems far to be trivial, valgrind signal
handling is very complex.
Due to this valgrind limitation, GDB linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx gets
a SIGSTOP signal instead of the expected SIGTRAP or SIGSEGV.
In such a case, linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx does an early return, but
does not kill the child (running under valgrind), child stays in a STOP-ped
state.
These lingering processes then eat the available system memory,
till launching a new process starts to fail.
This patch fixes the GDB minor bug by killing the child in case
linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx does an early return.
nat/linux-ptrace.c has 3 different logics to kill a child process.
So, this patch factorizes killing a child in the function kill_child.
The 3 different logics are:
* linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx is calling both kill (child, SIGKILL)
and ptrace (PTRACE_KILL, child, ...), and then is calling once
waitpid.
* linux_check_ptrace_features is calling ptrace (PTRACE_KILL, child, ...)
+ my_waitpid in a loop, as long as the waitpid status was WIFSTOPPED.
* linux_test_for_tracefork is calling once ptrace (PTRACE_KILL, child, ...)
+ my_waitpid.
The linux ptrace documentation indicates that PTRACE_KILL is deprecated,
and tells to not use it, as it might return success but not kill the tracee.
The documentation indicates to send SIGKILL directly.
I suspect that linux_ptrace_test_ret_to_nx calls both kill and ptrace just
to be sure ...
I suspect that linux_check_ptrace_features calls ptrace in a loop
to bypass the PTRACE_KILL limitation.
And it looks like linux_test_for_tracefork does not handle the PTRACE_KILL
limitation.
Also, 2 of the 3 logics are calling my_waitpid, which seems better,
as this is protecting the waitpid syscall against EINTR.
So, the logic in kill_child is just using kill (child, SIGKILL)
+ my_waitpid, and then does a few verifications to see everything worked
accordingly to the plan.
Tested on Debian/x86_64.

elf: Add PT_GNU_PROPERTY segment type
Linkers group input note sections with the same name into one output
note section with the same name. One output note section is placed in
one PT_NOTE segment. New linkers merge all input .note.gnu.property
sections into one output .note.gnu.property section with a single
NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 note in a single PT_NOTE segment. Since older
linkers treat input .note.gnu.property section as a generic note section
and just concatenate all input .note.gnu.property sections into one
output .note.gnu.property section without merging them, we may
see one or more NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 notes in PT_NOTE segment, which
are invalid.
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID was defined to address this issue such
that linker sets the bit for non-relocatable outputs. But it isn't
sufficient:
1. It doesn't cover generic properties.
2. When -mx86-used-note=yes is passed to x86 assembler, the
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID bit is set in GNU_PROPERTY_X86_ISA_1_USED
property in object file and older linkers generate invalid
NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 notes with the GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID bit
set.
I am proposing the following changes:
1. Add PT_GNU_PROPERTY segment type:
# define PT_GNU_PROPERTY (PT_LOOS + 0x474e553)
which covers .note.gnu.property section.
2. Remove GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID.

Add an optional "alias" attribute to syscall entries.
When setting a syscall catchpoint by name, catch syscalls whose name
or alias matches the requested string.
When the ABI of a system call is changed in the FreeBSD kernel, this
is implemented by leaving a compatibility system call using the old
ABI at the existing "slot" and allocating a new system call for the
version using the new ABI. For example, new fields were added to the
'struct kevent' used by the kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12. The
previous kevent() system call in FreeBSD 12 kernels is now called
freebsd11_kevent() and is still used by older binaries compiled
against the older ABI. The freebsd11_kevent() system call can be
tagged with an "alias" attribute of "kevent" permitting 'catch syscall
kevent' to catch both system calls and providing the expected user
behavior for both old and new binaries. It also provides the expected
behavior if GDB is compiled on an older host (such as a FreeBSD 11
host).

gdb/infcall: Make infcall_suspend_state into a class
I ran into a situation where attempting to make an inferior function
call would trigger an assertion, like this:
(gdb) call some_inferior_function ()
../../src/gdb/regcache.c:310: internal-error: void regcache::restore(readonly_detached_regcache*): Assertion `src != NULL' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The problem that triggers the assertion is that in the function
save_infcall_suspend_state, we basically did this:
1. Create empty infcall_suspend_state object.
2. Fill fields of infcall_suspend_state object.
The problem is causes is that if filling any of the fields triggered
an exception then the infcall_suspend_state object would be deleted
while in a partially filled in state.
In the specific case I encountered, I had a remote RISC-V target that
claimed in its target description to support floating point registers.
However, this was not true, and when GDB tried to read a floating
point register the remote sent back an error. This error would cause
an exception to be thrown while creating the
readonly_detached_regcache, which in turn caused GDB to try and delete
an infcall_suspend_state which didn't have any register state, and
this triggered the assertion.
To prevent this problem we have two possibilities, either, rewrite the
restore code the handle partially initialised infcall_suspend_state
objects, or, prevent partially initialised infcall_suspend_state
objects from existing. The second of these seems like a better
solution.
So, in this patch, I move the filling in of the different
infcall_suspend_state fields within a new constructor for
infcall_suspend_state. Now, if generating one of those fields fails
the destructor for infcall_suspend_state will not be executed and GDB
will not try to restore the partially saved state.
With this patch in place GDB now behaves like this:
(gdb) call some_inferior_function ()
Could not fetch register "ft0"; remote failure reply 'E99'
(gdb)
The inferior function call is aborted due to the error.
This has been tested against x86-64/Linux native, native-gdbserver,
and native-extended-gdbserver with no regressions. I've manually
tested this against my baddly behaving target and confirmed the
inferior function call is aborted as described above.
