9 years agoReplace "struct continuation" mechanism by something more extensible
Pedro Alves [Wed, 9 Sep 2015 17:23:24 +0000 (18:23 +0100)]
Replace "struct continuation" mechanism by something more extensible

This adds an object oriented replacement for the "struct continuation"
mechanism, and converts the stepping commands (step, next, stepi,
nexti) and the "finish" commands to use it.

It adds a new thread "class" (struct thread_fsm) that contains the
necessary info and callbacks to manage the state machine of a thread's
execution command.

This allows getting rid of some hacks.  E.g., in fetch_inferior_event
and normal_stop we no longer need to know whether a thread is doing a
multi-step (e.g., step N).  This effectively makes the
intermediate_continuations unused -- they'll be garbage collected in a
separate patch.  (They were never a proper abstraction, IMO.  See how
fetch_inferior_event needs to check step_multi before knowing whether
to call INF_EXEC_CONTINUE or INF_EXEC_COMPLETE.)

The target async vs !async uiout hacks in mi_on_normal_stop go away
too.

print_stop_event is no longer called from normal_stop.  Instead it is
now called from within each interpreter's normal_stop observer.  This
clears the path to make each interpreter print a stop event the way it
sees fit.  Currently we have some hacks in common code to
differenciate CLI vs TUI vs MI around this area.

The "finish" command's FSM class stores the return value plus that
value's position in the value history, so that those can be printed to
both MI and CLI's streams.  This fixes the CLI "finish" command when
run from MI -- it now also includes the function's return value in the
CLI stream:

Pedro Alves [Wed, 9 Sep 2015 17:23:23 +0000 (18:23 +0100)]
Merge async and sync code paths some more

This patch makes the execution control code use largely the same
mechanisms in both sync- and async-capable targets.  This means using
continuations and use the event loop to react to target events on sync
targets as well.  The trick is to immediately mark infrun's event loop
source after resume instead of calling wait_for_inferior.  Then
fetch_inferior_event is adjusted to do a blocking wait on sync
targets.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver, with and without
"maint set target-async off".

9 years agobtrace: kernel address filtering
Markus Metzger [Tue, 11 Aug 2015 09:05:58 +0000 (11:05 +0200)]
btrace: kernel address filtering

For the BTS recording format, we sometimes get a FROM->TO record where the
FROM address lies in the kernel and the TO address lies in user space at
whatever address the user process was resumed.

GDB has a heuristic to filter out such records based on looking at the most
significant bit in the PC.  This works fine for 64-bit systems but it doesn't
always work for 32-bit systems.  Libraries that are loaded at fairly high
addresses might be mistaken for kernel code and branches inside the library
are filtered out.

Change the heuristic to (again heuristically) try to determine the lowest
address in kernel space.  Any PC that is smaller than that should be in
user space.

On today's systems, there should be a symbol "_text" at that address.
Read /proc/kallsyms and search for that symbol.

It is not guaranteed that /proc/kallsyms is readable on all systems.  On
64-bit systems, we fall back to check the most significant bit.  On 32-bit
systems, we refrain from filtering out addresses.

The filtering should really be done by the kernel.  And it soon will be:

[Ada] Make string_char_type a true TYPE_CODE_CHAR type in Ada

Before this change, trying to call an overloaded function with at least
one character literal in argument would fail.  For instance, given these
two functions:

   function F (C : Character) return Integer is
   begin
      return Character'Pos (C);
   end F;

   function F (I : Integer) return Integer is
   begin
      return -I;
   end F;

We would get the following GDB session:

    (gdb) p f('A')
    $1 = -65
    (gdb) p f(1)
    $1 = -1

This is wrong because the first call should select the first F function
and thus return 65.

The root problem is that ada-lang.c:ada_language_arch_info stores in
string_char_type a type whose code is TYPE_CODE_INT instead of
TYPE_CODE_CHAR.  As a result, all parsed character literals are turned
into integer values and during overload matching, the TYPE_CODE_CHAR
formal rejects the TYPE_CODE_INT actual.

This change turns string_char_type into a true TYPE_CODE_CHAR type in
ada-lang.c so that we have instead the expected:

    (gdb) p f('A')
    $1 = 65

gdb/ChangeLog:

* ada-lang.c (ada_language_arch_info): Create a TYPE_CODE_CHAR

four debugging registers can not monitor 34-byte long area, so the last
iteration of updating debugging register state fails but previous
iterations succeed.  This makes GDB think no HW watchpoint is inserted
but some debugging registers are used.

This problem was exposed by "watch buf" gdb.base/watchpoint.exp with
aarch64 GDBserver debugging arm 32-bit program.  The buf is 30-byte long
but 4-byte aligned, and four debugging registers can't cover 34-byte
(extend 4 bytes to be 8-byte aligned) area.  However, this problem
does exist on non-multi-arch debugging scenario as well.

This patch moves code in aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_hw_watchpoint to
aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_watchpoint in nat/aarch64-linux-hw-point.c.
Then, checks with aarch64_linux_region_ok_for_watchpoint, like what we

Catching errors on probes-based dynamic linker interface

This patch is intended to make the interaction between the
probes-based dynamic linker interface and the SystemTap SDT probe code
on GDB more robust.  It does that by wrapping the calls to the probe
API with TRY...CATCH'es, so that any exception thrown will be caught
and handled properly.

The idea for this patch came from
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1196181>, which is a bug
initially filed against Fedora GDB (but now under Fedora GLIBC).  This
bug happens on armhfp (although it could happen on other targets as
well), and is triggered because GCC generates a strange argument for
one of the probes used by GDB in the dynamic linker interface.  As can
be seen in the bug, this argument is "-4@.L1052".

I don't want to discuss the reasons for this argument to be there
(this discussion belongs to the bug, or to another thread), but GDB
could definitely do a better error handling here.  Currently, one sees
the following message when there is an error in the probes-based
dynamic linker interface:

  (gdb) run
  Starting program: /bin/inferior
  warning: Probes-based dynamic linker interface failed.
  Reverting to original interface.

  Cannot parse expression `.L976 4@r4'.
  (gdb)

Which means that one needs to explicitly issue a "continue" command to
make GDB continue running the inferior, even though this error is not
fatal and GDB will fallback to the old interface automatically.

This is where this patch helps: it makes GDB still print the necessary
warnings or error messages, but it *also* does not stop the inferior
unnecessarily.

I have tested this patch on the systems where this error happens, but
I could not come up with a way to create a testcase for it.
Nevertheless, it should be straightforward to see that this patch does
improve the current situation.

Improve error reporting when handling SystemTap SDT probes

This patch improves the error reporting when handling SystemTap SDT
probes.  "Handling", in this case, mostly means "parsing".

On gdb/probe.h, only trivial changes on functions' comments in order
to explicitly mention that some of them can throw exceptions.  This is
just to make the API a bit more clear.

On gdb/stap-probe.c, I have s/internal_error/error/ on two functions
that are responsible for parsing specific bits of the probes'
arguments: stap_get_opcode and stap_get_expected_argument_type.  It is
not correct to call internal_error on such situations because it is
not really GDB's fault if the probes have malformed arguments.  I also
improved the error reported on stap_get_expected_argument_type by also
including the probe name on it.

Aside from that, and perhaps most importantly, I added a check on
stap_get_arg to make sure that we don't try to extract an argument
from a probe that has no arguments.  This check issues an
internal_error, because it really means that GDB is doing something it
shouldn't.

9 years ago[Ada] Fix completion for multiple function matches

[Ada] Fix completion for multiple function matches

Before this change, trying to complete an expression ending with an
ambiguous function name (i.e. for which there are multiple matches)
would display a menu with a prompt for the user to pick one. For
instance:

    (gdb) p func<tab>Multiple matches for func
    [0] cancel
    [1] pack2.func at pack2.adb:5
    [2] pack.func at pack.adb:5
    >

This is not user friendly and actually triggered a segmentation fault
after the user did pick one. It is not clear whether the segmentation
fault needs a separate fix, but this is the only known case which
exhibits it at the moment, and this case must be fixed itself.

The problem lies in ada-lang.c (ada_resolve_function): when we got
multiple matches, we should not display the menu if we are in completion
mode. This patch adjusts the corresponding condition accordingly.

match to use when in completion mode.

code would use BMSYMBOL_VALUE_ADDRESS to determine the offset of the

- Bails out early if the current inferior has not yet been registered
  (e.g. during fork procession) to avoid assertion failures in register
  cache code.

- Sets inferior_ptid to the current ptid while calling target_read_memory
  to make sure the correct process is accessed if parse_spufs_run is
  called early when inferior_ptid has not yet been switched by the caller.

ChangeLog:

* spu-multiarch.c (parse_spufs_run): Bail out if inferior is not
registered yet.  Set inferior_ptid while calling target_read_memory.

Detect SW breakpoints in Cell/B.E. combined debugging

The Linux target and gdbserver now check the siginfo si_code
reported on a SIGTRAP to detect whether the trap indicates
a software breakpoint was hit.

Unfortunately, on Cell/B.E., the kernel uses an si_code value
of TRAP_BRKPT when a SW breakpoint was hit in PowerPC code,
but a si_code value of SI_KERNEL when a SW breakpoint was
hit in SPU code.

This patch updates Linux target and gdbserver to accept both
si_code values to indicate SW breakpoint on PowerPC.

ChangeLog:

* nat/linux-ptrace.h (GDB_ARCH_TRAP_BRKPT): Replace by ...
(GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_BRKPT): ... this.  Add __powerpc__ case.
* linux-nat.c (check_stopped_by_breakpoint): Use
GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_BRKPT instead of GDB_ARCH_TRAP_BRKPT.

gdbserver/ChangeLog:

* linux-low.c (check_stopped_by_breakpoint): Use
GDB_ARCH_IS_TRAP_BRKPT instead of GDB_ARCH_TRAP_BRKPT.
