gdb: don't print backtrace when dumping core after an internal error
Currently, when GDB hits an internal error, and the user selects to
dump core, the recently added feature to write a backtrace to the
console will kick in, and print a backtrace as well as dumping the
core.
This was certainly not my intention when adding the backtrace on fatal
signal functionality, this feature was intended to produce a backtrace
when GDB crashes due to some fatal signal, internal errors should have
continued to behave as they did before, unchanged.
In this commit I set the signal disposition of SIGABRT back to SIG_DFL
just prior to the call to abort() that GDB uses to trigger the core
dump, this prevents GDB reaching the code that writes the backtrace to
the console.
I've also added a test that checks we don't see a backtrace on the
console after an internal error.

gdb: print backtrace on fatal SIGSEGV
This commit adds a new maintenance feature, the ability to print
a (limited) backtrace if GDB dies due to a fatal signal.
The backtrace is produced using the backtrace and backtrace_symbols_fd
functions which are declared in the execinfo.h header, and both of
which are async signal safe. A configure check has been added to
check for these features, if they are not available then the new code
is not compiled into GDB and the backtrace will not be printed.
The motivation for this new feature is to aid in debugging GDB in
situations where GDB has crashed at a users site, but the user is
reluctant to share core files, possibly due to concerns about what
might be in the memory image within the core file. Such a user might
be happy to share a simple backtrace that was written to stderr.
The production of the backtrace is on by default, but can switched off
using the new commands:
maintenance set backtrace-on-fatal-signal on|off
maintenance show backtrace-on-fatal-signal
Right now, I have hooked this feature in to GDB's existing handling of
SIGSEGV only, but this will be extended to more signals in a later
commit.
One additional change I have made in this commit is that, when we
decide GDB should terminate due to the fatal signal, we now
raise the same fatal signal rather than raising SIGABRT.
Currently, this is only effecting our handling of SIGSEGV. So,
previously, if GDB hit a SEGV then we would terminate GDB with a
SIGABRT. After this commit we will terminate GDB with a SIGSEGV.
This feels like an improvement to me, we should still get a core dump,
but in many shells, the user will see a more specific message once GDB
exits, in bash for example "Segmentation fault" rather than "Aborted".
Finally then, here is an example of the output a user would see if GDB
should hit an internal SIGSEGV:

It is disappointing that backtrace_symbols_fd does not actually map

not being built with -rdynamic as the manual page for
backtrace_symbols_fd suggests, however, even when I do add -rdynamic
to the build of GDB I only see symbols for some addresses.
We could potentially look at alternative libraries to provide the
backtrace (e.g. libunwind) however, the solution presented here, which
is available as part of glibc is probably a good baseline from which
we might improve things in future.

gdb: rename async_init_signals to gdb_init_signals
The async_init_signals has, for some time, dealt with async and sync
signals, so removing the async prefix makes sense I think.
Additionally, as pointed out by Pedro:
.....
The comments relating to SIGTRAP and SIGQUIT within this function are
out of date.
The comments for SIGTRAP talk about the signal disposition (SIG_IGN)
being passed to the inferior, meaning the signal disposition being
inherited by GDB's fork children. However, we now call
restore_original_signals_state prior to forking, so the comment on
SIGTRAP is redundant.
The comments for SIGQUIT are similarly out of date, further, the
comment on SIGQUIT talks about problems with BSD4.3 and vfork,
however, we have not supported BSD4.3 for several years now.
Given the above, it seems that changing the disposition of SIGTRAP is
no longer needed, so I've deleted the signal() call for SIGTRAP.
Finally, the header comment on the function now called
gdb_init_signals was getting quite out of date, so I've updated it
to (hopefully) better reflect reality.

gdb: register signal handler after setting up event token
This commit fixes the smallest of small possible bug related to signal
handling. If we look in async_init_signals we see code like this:
signal (SIGQUIT, handle_sigquit);
sigquit_token =
create_async_signal_handler (async_do_nothing, NULL, "sigquit");
Then if we look in handle_sigquit we see code like this:
mark_async_signal_handler (sigquit_token);
signal (sig, handle_sigquit);
Finally, in mark_async_signal_handler we have:
async_handler_ptr->ready = 1;
Where async_handler_ptr will be sigquit_token.
What this means is that if a SIGQUIT arrive in async_init_signals
after handle_sigquit has been registered, but before sigquit_token has
been initialised, then GDB will most likely crash.
The chance of this happening is tiny, but fixing this is trivial, just
ensure we call create_async_signal_handler before calling signal, so
lets do that.
There are no tests for this. Trying to land a signal in the right
spot is pretty hit and miss. I did try changing the current HEAD GDB
like this:
signal (SIGQUIT, handle_sigquit);
raise (SIGQUIT);
sigquit_token =
create_async_signal_handler (async_do_nothing, NULL, "sigquit");
And confirmed that this did result in a crash, after my change I tried
this:
sigquit_token =
create_async_signal_handler (async_do_nothing, NULL, "sigquit");
signal (SIGQUIT, handle_sigquit);
raise (SIGQUIT);
And GDB now starts up just fine.

gdb: terminate upon receipt of SIGFPE
GDB's SIGFPE handling is broken, this is PR gdb/16505 and
PR gdb/17891.
We currently try to use an async event token to process SIGFPE. So,
when a SIGFPE arrives the signal handler calls
mark_async_signal_handler then returns, effectively ignoring the
signal (for now).
The intention is that later the event loop will see that the async
token associated with SIGFPE has been marked and will call the async
handler, which just throws an error.
The problem is that SIGFPE is not safe to ignore. Ignoring a
SIGFPE (unless it is generated artificially, e.g. by raise()) is
undefined behaviour, after ignoring the signal on many targets we
return to the instruction that caused the SIGFPE to be raised, which
immediately causes another SIGFPE to be raised, we get stuck in an
infinite loop. The behaviour is certainly true on x86-64.
To view this behaviour I simply added some dummy code to GDB that
performed an integer divide by zero, compiled this on x86-64
GNU/Linux, ran GDB and saw GDB hang.
In this commit, I propose to remove all special handling of SIGFPE and
instead just let GDB make use of the default SIGFPE action, that is,
to terminate the process.
The only user visible change here should be:
- If a user sends a SIGFPE to GDB using something like kill,
previously GDB would just print an error and remain alive, now GDB
will terminate. This is inline with what happens if the user
sends GDB a SIGSEGV from kill though, so I don't see this as an
issue.
- If a bug in GDB causes a real SIGFPE, previously the users GDB
session would hang. Now the GDB session will terminate. Again,
this is inline with what happens if GDB receives a SIGSEGV due to
an internal bug.
In bug gdb/16505 there is mention that it would be nice if GDB did
more than just terminate when receiving a fatal signal. I haven't
done that in this commit, but later commits will move in that
direction.

Ignore .debug_types when reading .debug_aranges
I noticed that the fission-reread.exp test case can cause a complaint
when run with --target_board=cc-with-debug-names:
warning: Section .debug_aranges in [...]/fission-reread has duplicate debug_info_offset 0x0, ignoring .debug_aranges.
The bug here is that this executable has both .debug_info and
.debug_types, and both have a CU at offset 0x0. This triggers the
duplicate warning.
Because .debug_types doesn't provide any address ranges, these CUs can
be ignored. That is, this bug turns out to be another regression from
the info/types merger patch.
This patch fixes the problem by having this loop igore type units.
fission-reread.exp is updated to test for the bug.

gdb: iterate only on vfork parent threads in handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit
I spotted what I think is a buglet in proceed_after_vfork_done. After a
vfork child exits or execs, we resume all the threads of the parent. To
do so, we iterate on all threads using iterate_over_threads with the
proceed_after_vfork_done callback. Each thread is resumed if the
following condition is true:
if (thread->ptid.pid () == pid
&& thread->state == THREAD_RUNNING
&& !thread->executing
&& !thread->stop_requested
&& thread->stop_signal () == GDB_SIGNAL_0)
where `pid` is the pid of the vfork parent. This is not multi-target
aware: since it only filters on pid, if there is an inferior with the
same pid in another target, we could end up resuming a thread of that
other inferior. The chances of the stars aligning for this to happen
are tiny, but still.
Fix that by iterating only on the vfork parent's threads, instead of on
all threads. This is more efficient, as we iterate on just the required
threads (inferiors have their own thread list), and we can drop the pid
check. The resulting code is also more straightforward in my opinion,
so it's a win-win.

guile: fix smob exports
Before Guile v2.1 [1], calls to `scm_make_smob_type' implicitly added
the created class to the exports list of (oop goops); v2.1+ does not
implicitly create bindings in any modules. This means that the GDB
manual subsection documenting exported types is not quite right when GDB
is linked against Guile <v2.1 (types are exported from (oop goops))
instead of (gdb)) and incorrect when linked against Guile v2.1+ (types
are not bound to any variables at all!).
There is a range of cases in which it's necessary or convenient to be
able to refer to a GDB smob type, for instance:
- Pattern matching based on the type of a value.
- Defining GOOPS methods handling values from GDB (GOOPS methods
typically use dynamic dispatch based on the types of the arguments).
- Type-checking assertions when applying some defensive programming on
an interface.
- Generally any other situation one might encounter in a dynamically
typed language that might need some introspection.
If you're more familiar with Python, it would be quite similar to being
unable to refer to the classes exported from the GDB module (which is to
say: not crippling for the most part, but makes certain tasks more
difficult than necessary).
This commit makes a small change to GDB's smob registration machinery
to make sure registered smobs get exported from the current
module. This will likely cause warnings to the user about conflicting
exports if they load both (gdb) and (oop goops) from a GDB linked
against Guile v2.0, but it shouldn't impact functionality (and seemed
preferable to trying to un-export bindings from (oop goops) if v2.0
was detected).

The warning is about the following:
- in find_pc_sect_compunit_symtab we try to find the address
(0x7ff8feb2c218 / 0x7ff8feb2c21d) in the symtabs.
- that fails, so we try again in the partial symtabs.
- we find a matching partial symtab
- however, the partial symtab has a full symtab, so
we should have found a matching symtab in the first step.
The addresses are:
...
(gdb) info sym 0x7ff8feb2c218

section .text of repro/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6

...
$ nm -C repro/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.29 | grep
000000000009c218
000000000009c218 t __gnu_debug::_Error_formatter::_M_error() const \
[clone .cold]
...
which belong to function __gnu_debug::_Error_formatter::_M_error() in
/build/gcc/src/gcc/libstdc++-v3/src/c++11/debug.cc.
The partial symtab that is found for the addresses is instead the one for
/build/gcc/src/gcc/libstdc++-v3/src/c++98/bitmap_allocator.cc, which is
incorrect.
This happens as follows.
The bitmap_allocator.cc CU has DW_AT_ranges at .debug_rnglist offset 0x4b50:
...
00004b50 0000000000000000 0000000000000056
00004b5a 00000000000a4790 00000000000a479c
00004b64 00000000000a47a0 00000000000a47ac
...
When reading the first range 0x0..0x56, it doesn't trigger the "start address
of zero" complaint here:
...
/* A not-uncommon case of bad debug info.
Don't pollute the addrmap with bad data. */
if (range_beginning + baseaddr == 0
&& !per_objfile->per_bfd->has_section_at_zero)
{
complaint (_(".debug_rnglists entry has start address of zero"
" [in module %s]"), objfile_name (objfile));
continue;
}
...
because baseaddr != 0, which seems incorrect given that when loading the
shared library individually in gdb (and consequently baseaddr == 0), we do see
the complaint.
Consequently, we run into this case in dwarf2_get_pc_bounds:
...
if (low == 0 && !per_objfile->per_bfd->has_section_at_zero)
return PC_BOUNDS_INVALID;
...
which then results in this code in process_psymtab_comp_unit_reader being
called with cu_bounds_kind == PC_BOUNDS_INVALID, which sets the set_addrmap
argument to 1:
...
scan_partial_symbols (first_die, &lowpc, &highpc,
cu_bounds_kind <= PC_BOUNDS_INVALID, cu);
...
and consequently, the CU addrmap gets build using address info from the
functions.
During that process, addrmap_set_empty is called with a range that includes
0x9c218 and 0x9c21d:
...
(gdb) p /x start
$7 = 0x9989c
(gdb) p /x end_inclusive
$8 = 0xb200d
...
but it's called for a function at DIE 0x54153 with DW_AT_ranges at 0x40ae:
...
000040ae 00000000000b1ee0 00000000000b200e
000040b9 000000000009989c 00000000000998c4
000040c3 <End of list>
...
and neither range includes 0x9c218 and 0x9c21d.
This is caused by this code in partial_die_info::read:
...
if (dwarf2_ranges_read (ranges_offset, &lowpc, &highpc, cu,
nullptr, tag))
has_pc_info = 1;
...
which pretends that the function is located at addresses 0x9989c..0xb200d,
which is indeed not the case.
This patch fixes the first problem encountered: fix the "start address of
zero" complaint warning by removing the baseaddr part from the condition.
Same for dwarf2_ranges_process.
The effect is that:
- the complaint is triggered, and
- the warning / Internal error is no longer triggered.
This does not fix the observed problem in partial_die_info::read, which is
filed as PR28200.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

This test tests using both "-p <pid>" and "-ex start" on the command line,
making sure that we first attach and then run.
Normally, after that "y", we should see the program running again.
However, a particuliarity of the native-extended-gdbserver is that it
uses "set auto-connect-native-target off" on the command line. The full
GDB command line is:
./gdb -nw -nx -data-directory /home/simark/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/../data-directory \
-iex set height 0 -iex set width 0 -ex set auto-connect-native-target off \
-ex set sysroot -quiet -iex set height 0 -iex set width 0 --pid=536609 -ex start
The attach succeeds. I guess it is done before "set
auto-connect-native-target off", or it somehow bypasses it. When the
"start" is executed, the native target is unpushed, while killing the
existing process, but not re-pushed, due to "set
auto-connect-native-target off". So we get that "Don't know how to run"
message.
Really, I think it's a case of the test doing things incompatible with
the board, I think it should just be skipped. And as we can see with
the current code, there were some attempts at doing this, just using the
wrong checks:
- isnative: this is a dejagnu proc which checks if the target board has
the same triplet as the build machine. In the case of
native-extended-gdbserver, it does.
- is_remote target: this checks whether the target board is remote, as
in executing on a different machin. native-extended-gdbserver is not
remote.
Since the --pid option specifically attaches to a process using the
native target, change the test to use gdb_is_target_native instead.

Simplify dwarf_expr_context class interface
Idea of this patch is to get a clean and simple public interface for
the dwarf_expr_context class, looking like:
- constructor,
- destructor,
- push_address method and
- evaluate method.
Where constructor should only ever require a target architecture
information. This information is held in per object file
(dwarf2_per_objfile) structure, so it makes sense to keep that
structure as a constructor argument. It also makes sense to get the
address size from that structure, but unfortunately that interface
doesn't exist at the moment, so the dwarf_expr_context class user
needs to provide that information.
The push_address method is used to push a CORE_ADDR as a value on
top of the DWARF stack before the evaluation. This method can be
later changed to push any struct value object on the stack.
The evaluate method is the method that evaluates a DWARF expression
and provides the evaluation result, in a form of a single struct
value object that describes a location. To do this, the method requires
a context of the evaluation, as well as expected result type
information. If the type information is not provided, the DWARF generic
type will be used instead.
To avoid storing the gdbarch information in the evaluator object, that
information is now always acquired from the per_objfile object.
All data members are now private and only visible to the evaluator
class, so a m_ prefix was added to all of their names to reflect that.
To make this distinction clear, they are also accessed through objects
this pointer, wherever that was not the case before.

Move piece_closure and its support to expr.c
Following 5 patches series is trying to clean up the interface of the
DWARF expression evaluator class (dwarf_expr_context).
After merging all expression evaluators into one class, the next
logical step is to make a clean user interface for that class. To do
that, we first need to address the issue of class users writing and
reading the internal data of the class directly.
Fixing the case of writing is simple, it makes sense for an evaluator
instance to be per architecture basis. Currently, the best separation
seems to be per object file, so having that data (dwarf2_per_objfile)
as a constructor argument makes sense. It also makes sense to get the
address size from that object file, but unfortunately that interface
does not exist at the moment.
Luckily, address size information is already available to the users
through other means. As a result, the address size also needs to be a
class constructor argument, at least until a better interface for
acquiring that information from an object file is implemented.
The rest of the user written data comes down to a context of an
evaluated expression (compilation unit context, frame context and
passed in buffer context) and a source type information that a result
of evaluating expression is representing. So, it makes sense for all of
these to be arguments of an evaluation method.
To address the problem of reading the dwarf_expr_context class
internal data, we first need to understand why it is implemented that
way?
This is actualy a question of which existing class can be used to
represent both values and a location descriptions and why it is not
used currently?
The answer is in a struct value class/structure, but the problem is
that before the evaluators were merged, only one evaluator had an
infrastructure to resolve composite and implicit pointer location
descriptions.
After the merge, we are now able to use the struct value to represent
any result of the expression evaluation. It also makes sense to move
all infrastructure for those location descriptions to the expr.c file
considering that that is the only place using that infrastructure.
What we are left with in the end is a clean public interface of the
dwarf_expr_context class containing:
- constructor,
- destructor,
- push_address method and
- eval_exp method.
The idea with this particular patch is to move piece_closure structure
and the interface that handles it (lval_funcs) to expr.c file.
While implicit pointer location descriptions are still not useful in
the CFI context (of the AMD's DWARF standard extensions), the composite
location descriptions are certainly necessary to describe a results of
specific compiler optimizations.
Considering that a piece_closure structure is used to represent both,
there was no benefit in splitting them.

Move frame context info to dwarf_expr_context
Following 15 patches in this patch series is cleaning up the design of
the DWARF expression evaluator (dwarf_expr_context) to make future
extensions of that evaluator easier and cleaner to implement.
There are three subclasses of the dwarf_expr_context class
(dwarf_expr_executor, dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc and
evaluate_for_locexpr_baton). Here is a short description of each class:
- dwarf_expr_executor is evaluating a DWARF expression in a context
of a Call Frame Information. The overridden methods of this subclass
report an error if a specific DWARF operation, represented by that
method, is not allowed in a CFI context. The source code of this
subclass lacks the support for composite as well as implicit pointer
location description.
- dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc can evaluate any expression with no
restrictions. All of the methods that this subclass overrides are
actually doing what they are intended to do. This subclass contains
a full support for all location description types.
- evaluate_for_locexpr_baton subclass is a specialization of the
dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc subclass and it's function is to add
support for passed in buffers. This seems to be a way to go around
the fact that DWARF standard lacks a bit offset support for memory
location descriptions as well as using any location description for
the push object address functionality.
It all comes down to this question: what is a function of a DWARF
expression evaluator?
Is it to evaluate the expression in a given context or to check the
correctness of that expression in that context?
Currently, the only reason why there is a dwarf_expr_executor subclass
is to report an invalid DWARF expression in a context of a CFI, but is
that what the evaluator is supposed to do considering that the evaluator
is not tied to a given DWARF version?
There are more and more vendor and GNU extensions that are not part of
the DWARF standard, so is it that impossible to expect that some of the
extensions could actually lift the previously imposed restrictions of
the CFI context? Not to mention that every new DWARF version is lifting
some restrictions anyway.
The thing that makes more sense for an evaluator to do, is to take the
context of an evaluation and checks the requirements of every operation
evaluated against that context. With this approach, the evaluator would
report an error only if parts of the context, necessary for the
evaluation, are missing.
If this approach is taken, then the unification of the
dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc, dwarf_expr_executor and dwarf_expr_context
is the next logical step. This makes a design of the DWARF expression
evaluator cleaner and allows more flexibility when supporting future
vendor and GNU extensions.
Additional benefit here is that now all evaluators have access to all
location description types, which means that a vendor extended CFI
rules could support composite location description as well. This also
means that a new evaluator interface can be changed to return a single
struct value (that describes the result of the evaluation) instead of
a caller poking around the dwarf_expr_context internal data for answers
(like it is done currently).
This patch starts the merging process by moving the frame context
information and support from dwarf_expr_executor and
dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc to dwarf_expr_context evaluator. The idea
is to report an error when a given operation requires a frame
information to be resolved, if that information is not present.

Depending on the information needed to evaluate a given expression,
there are currently three distinct DWARF expression evaluators:
- Frame: designed to evaluate an expression in the context of a call
frame information (dwarf_expr_executor class). This evaluator doesn't
need a compilation unit information.
- Location description: designed to evaluate an expression in the
context of a source level information (dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc
class). This evaluator expects all information needed for the
evaluation of the given expression to be present.
- Symbol needs: designed to answer a question about the parts of the
context information required to evaluate a DWARF expression behind a
given symbol (symbol_needs_eval_context class). This evaluator
doesn't need a frame information.
The functional difference between the symbol needs evaluator and the
others is that this evaluator is not meant to interact with the actual
target. Instead, it is supposed to check which parts of the context
information are needed for the given DWARF expression to be evaluated by
the location description evaluator.
The idea is to take advantage of the existing dwarf_expr_context
evaluation mechanism and to fake all required interactions with the
actual target, by returning back dummy values. The evaluation result is
returned as one of three possible values, based on operations found in a
given expression:
- SYMBOL_NEEDS_NONE,
- SYMBOL_NEEDS_REGISTERS and
- SYMBOL_NEEDS_FRAME.
The problem here is that faking results of target interactions can yield
an incorrect evaluation result.
For example, if we have a conditional DWARF expression, where the
condition depends on a value read from an actual target, and the true
branch of the condition requires a frame information to be evaluated,
while the false branch doesn't, fake target reads could conclude that a
frame information is not needed, where in fact it is. This wrong
information would then cause the expression to be actually evaluated (by
the location description evaluator) with a missing frame information.
This would then crash the debugger.
The gdb.dwarf2/symbol_needs_eval_fail.exp test introduces this
scenario, with the following DWARF expression:
DW_OP_addr $some_variable
DW_OP_deref
# conditional jump to DW_OP_bregx
DW_OP_bra 4
DW_OP_lit0
# jump to DW_OP_stack_value
DW_OP_skip 3
DW_OP_bregx $dwarf_regnum 0
DW_OP_stack_value
This expression describes a case where some variable dictates the
location of another variable. Depending on a value of some_variable, the
variable whose location is described by this expression is either read
from a register or it is defined as a constant value 0. In both cases,
the value will be returned as an implicit location description on the
DWARF stack.
Currently, when the symbol needs evaluator fakes a memory read from the
address behind the some_variable variable, the constant value 0 is used
as the value of the variable A, and the check returns the
SYMBOL_NEEDS_NONE result.
This is clearly a wrong result and it causes the debugger to crash.
The scenario might sound strange to some people, but it comes from a
SIMD/SIMT architecture where $some_variable is an execution mask. In
any case, it is a valid DWARF expression, and GDB shouldn't crash while
evaluating it. Also, a similar example could be made based on a
condition of the frame base value, where if that value is concluded to
be 0, the variable location could be defaulted to a TLS based memory
address.
The gdb.dwarf2/symbol_needs_eval_timeout.exp test introduces a second
scenario. This scenario is a bit more abstract due to the DWARF
assembler lacking the CFI support, but it exposes a different
manifestation of the same problem. Like in the previous scenario, the
DWARF expression used in the test is valid:
DW_OP_lit1
DW_OP_addr $some_variable
DW_OP_deref
# jump to DW_OP_fbreg
DW_OP_skip 4
DW_OP_drop
DW_OP_fbreg 0
DW_OP_dup
DW_OP_lit0
DW_OP_eq
# conditional jump to DW_OP_drop
DW_OP_bra -9
DW_OP_stack_value
Similarly to the previous scenario, the location of a variable A is an
implicit location description with a constant value that depends on a
value held by a global variable. The difference from the previous case
is that DWARF expression contains a loop instead of just one branch. The
end condition of that loop depends on the expectation that a frame base
value is never zero. Currently, the act of faking the target reads will
cause the symbol needs evaluator to get stuck in an infinite loop.
Somebody could argue that we could change the fake reads to return
something else, but that would only hide the real problem.
The general impression seems to be that the desired design is to have
one class that deals with parsing of the DWARF expression, while there
are virtual methods that deal with specifics of some operations.
Using an evaluator mechanism here doesn't seem to be correct, because
the act of evaluation relies on accessing the data from the actual
target with the possibility of skipping the evaluation of some parts of
the expression.
To better explain the proposed solution for the issue, I first need to
explain a couple more details behind the current design:
There are multiple places in gdb that handle DWARF expression parsing
for different purposes. Some are in charge of converting the expression
to some other internal representation (decode_location_expression,
disassemble_dwarf_expression and dwarf2_compile_expr_to_ax), some are
analysing the expression for specific information
(compute_stack_depth_worker) and some are in charge of evaluating the
expression in a given context (dwarf_expr_context::execute_stack_op
and decode_locdesc).
The problem is that all those functions have a similar (large) switch
statement that handles each DWARF expression operation. The result of
this is a code duplication and harder maintenance.
As a step into the right direction to solve this problem (at least for
the purpose of a DWARF expression evaluation) the expression parsing was
commonized inside of an evaluator base class (dwarf_expr_context). This
makes sense for all derived classes, except for the symbol needs
evaluator (symbol_needs_eval_context) class.
As described previously the problem with this evaluator is that if the
evaluator is not allowed to access the actual target, it is not really
evaluating.
Instead, the desired function of a symbol needs evaluator seems to fall
more into expression analysis category. This means that a more natural
fit for this evaluator is to be a symbol needs analysis, similar to the
existing compute_stack_depth_worker analysis.
Another problem is that using a heavyweight mechanism of an evaluator
to do an expression analysis seems to be an unneeded overhead. It also
requires a more complicated design of the parent class to support fake
target reads.
The reality is that the whole symbol_needs_eval_context class can be
replaced with a lightweight recursive analysis function, that will give
more correct result without compromising the design of the
dwarf_expr_context class. The analysis treats the expression byte
stream as a DWARF operation graph, where each graph node can be
visited only once and each operation can decide if the frame context
is needed for their evaluation.
The downside of this approach is adding of one more similar switch
statement, but at least this way the new symbol needs analysis will be
a lightweight mechnism and it will provide a correct result for any
given DWARF expression.
A more desired long term design would be to have one class that deals
with parsing of the DWARF expression, while there would be a virtual
methods that deal with specifics of some DWARF operations. Then that
class would be used as a base for all DWARF expression parsing mentioned
at the beginning.
This however, requires a far bigger changes that are out of the scope
of this patch series.
The new analysis requires the DWARF location description for the
argc argument of the main function to change in the assembly file
gdb.python/amd64-py-framefilter-invalidarg.S. Originally, expression
ended with a 0 value byte, which was never reached by the symbol needs
evaluator, because it was detecting a stack underflow when evaluating
the operation before. The new approach does not simulate a DWARF
stack anymore, so the 0 value byte needs to be removed because it
makes the DWARF expression invalid.

gdb/testsuite: update test gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp
I was looking at PR gdb/19675 and the related test
gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp. This test includes a call to kfail
when we are testing a displaced step over a clone syscall.
While looking at the test I removed the call to kfail and ran the
test, and was surprised that the test passed.
I ran the test a few times and it does sometimes fail, but mostly it
passed fine.
PR gdb/19675 describes how, when we displaced step over a clone, the
new thread is created with a $pc in the displaced step buffer. GDB
then fails to "fix" this $pc (for the new thread), and the thread will
be set running with its current $pc value. This means that the new
thread will just start executing from whatever happens to be after the
displaced stepping buffer.
In the original PR gdb/19675 bug report Yao Qi was seeing the new
thread cause a segfault, the problem is, what actually happens is
totally undefined.
On my machine, I'm seeing the new thread reenter main, it then starts
trying to run the test again (in the new thread). This just happens
to be safe enough (in this simple test) that most of the time the
inferior doesn't crash.
In this commit I try to make the test slightly more likely to fail by
doing a couple of things.
First, I added a static variable to main, this is set true when the
first thread enters main, if a second thread ever enters main then I
force an abort.
Second, when the test is finishing I want to ensure that the new
threads have had a chance to do "something bad" if they are going to.
So I added a global counter, as each thread starts successfully it
decrements the counter. The main thread does not proceed to the final
marker function (where GDB has placed a breakpoint) until all threads
have started successfully. This means that if the newly created
thread doesn't successfully enter clone_fn then the counter will never
reach zero and the test will timeout.
With these two changes my hope is that the test should fail more
reliably, and so, I have also changed the test to call setup_kfail
before the specific steps that we expect to misbehave instead of just
calling kfail and skipping parts of the test completely. The benefit
of this is that if/when we fix GDB this test will start to KPASS and
we'll know to update this test to remove the setup_kfail call.

gdb/testsuite: fix gdb.base/info-macros.exp with clang
The test gdb.base/info-macros.exp says that it doesn't pass the "debug"
option to prepare_for_testing because that would cause -g to appear
after -g3 on the command line, and that would cause some gcc versions to
not include macro info. I don't know what gcc versions this refers to.
I tested with gcc 4.8, and that works fine with -g after -g3.
The current state is problematic when testing with CC_FOR_TARGET=clang,
because then only -fdebug-macro is included. No -g switch if included,
meaning we get a binary without any debug info, and the test fails.
One way to fix it would be to add "debug" to the options when the
compiler is clang.
However, the solution I chose was to specify "debug" in any case, even
for gcc. Other macro tests such as gdb.base/macscp.exp do perfectly
fine with it. Also, this lets the test use the debug flag specified by
the board file. For example, we can test with GCC and DWARF 5, with:
$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board unix/gdb:debug_flags=-gdwarf-5" TESTS="gdb.base/info-macros.exp"
With the hard-coded -g3, this wouldn't actually test with DWARF 5.

gdb: avoid dereferencing empty str_offsets_base optional in dwarf_decode_macros
Since
4d7188abfdf2 ("gdbsupport: add debug assertions in
gdb::optional::get"), some macro-related tests fail on Ubuntu 20.04 with
the system gcc 9.3.0 compiler when building with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG. For
example, gdb.base/info-macros.exp results in:
(gdb) break -qualified main
/home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/../gdbsupport/gdb_optional.h:206: internal-error: T& gdb::optional<T>::get() [with T = long unsigned int]: Assertion `this->has_value ()' failed.
The binary contains DWARF 4 debug info and includes a pre-standard
(pre-DWARF 5) .debug_macro section. The CU doesn't have a
DW_AT_str_offsets_base attribute (which doesn't exist in DWARF 4). The
field dwarf2_cu::str_offsets_base is therefore empty. At
dwarf2/read.c:24138, we unconditionally read the value in the optional,
which triggers the assertion shown above.
The same thing happens when building the test program with DWARF 5 with
the same gcc compiler, as that version of gcc doesn't use indirect
string forms, even with DWARF 5. So it still doesn't add a
DW_AT_str_offsets_base attribute on the CU.
Fix that by propagating down a gdb::optional<ULONGEST> for the str
offsets base instead of ULONGEST. That value is only used in
dwarf_decode_macro_bytes, when encountering an "strx" macro operation
(DW_MACRO_define_strx or DW_MACRO_undef_strx). Add a check there that
we indeed have a value in the optional before reading it. This is
unlikely to happen, but could happen in theory with an erroneous file
that uses DW_MACRO_define_strx but does not provide a
DW_AT_str_offsets_base (in practice, some things would probably have
failed before and stopped processing of debug info). I tested the
complaint by inverting the condition and using a clang-compiled binary,
which uses the strx operators. This is the result:
During symbol reading: use of DW_MACRO_define_strx with unknown string offsets base [in module /home/simark/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/info-macros/info-macros]
The test now passes cleanly with the setup mentioned above, and the
testsuite looks on par with how it was before
4d7188abfdf2.

gdb: fix typo in complaint in dwarf2/macro.c
I saw this complaint when my code had some bug, and spotted the typo.
Fix it, and while at it mention DW_MACRO as well (it would be confusing
to only see DW_MACINFO with a file that uses a DWARF 5 .debug_macro
section). I contemplated the idea of passing the knowledge of whether
we are dealing with a .debug_macro section or .debug_macinfo section, to
print only the right one. But in the end, I don't think that trouble is
necessary for a complaint nobody is going to see.

PR28162, segment fault in mips_elf_assign_gp
For the testcase in the PR, _bfd_mips_elf32_gprel16_reloc is passed a
NULL output_bfd. As expected for reloc special functions if called by
objdump or when final linking. The function attempts to find the
output by
output_bfd = symbol->section->output_section->owner;
That makes some sense, since when handling a gp-relative reloc we need
the relevant gp to which the symbol is relative. Possibly the gp
value can be one for a shared library? But that doesn't seem useful
or supported by the various abi docs and won't work as written.
Symbols defined in shared libraries have section->output_section
NULL, and what's more the code in mips_elf_assign_gp isn't set up to
look at shared library symbols.
Also, if the symbol is a SHN_ABS one the owner of *ABS* section is
NULL, which will result in the testcase segfault. The only gp to
which an absolute symbol can be relative is the linker output bfd when
linking, or the input bfd when not. This patch arranges to do that
for all gp-relative reloc symbols.
