Don't throw quit while handling inferior events, part II
I noticed that if Ctrl-C was typed just while GDB is evaluating a
breakpoint condition in the background, and GDB ends up reaching out
to the Python interpreter, then the breakpoint condition would still
fail, like:
c&
Continuing.
(gdb) Error in testing breakpoint condition:
Quit
That happens because while evaluating the breakpoint condition, we
enter Python, and end up calling PyErr_SetInterrupt (it's called by
gdbpy_set_quit_flag, in frame #0):

The fix is to disable cooperative SIGINT handling while handling
inferior events, so that SIGINT is saved in the global quit flag, and
not in the extension language, while handling an event.
This commit augments the testcase added by the previous commit to test
this scenario as well.

Don't throw quit while handling inferior events
This implements what I suggested here:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/
ab97c553-f406-b094-cdf3-
ba031fdea925@palves.net/
Here is the current default quit_handler, a function that ends up
called by the QUIT macro:
void
default_quit_handler (void)
{
if (check_quit_flag ())
{
if (target_terminal::is_ours ())
quit ();
else
target_pass_ctrlc ();
}
}
As we can see above, when the inferior is running in the foreground,
then a Ctrl-C is translated into a call to target_pass_ctrlc().
The target_terminal::is_ours() case above is there to handle the
scenario where GDB has the terminal, meaning it is handling some
command the user typed, like "list", or "p a + b" or some such.
However, when the inferior is running on the background, say with
"c&", GDB also has the terminal. Run control handling is now done in
the "background". The CLI is responsive to user commands. If users
type Ctrl-C, they're expecting it to interrupt whatever command they
next type in the CLI, which again, could be "list", "p a + b", etc.
It's as if background run control was handled by a separate thread,
and the Ctrl-C is meant to go to the main thread, handling the CLI.
However, when handling an event, inside fetch_inferior_event &
friends, a Ctrl-C _also_ results in a Quit exception, from the same
default_quit_handler function shown above. This quit aborts run
control handling, breakpoint condition evaluation, etc., and may even
leave run control in an inconsistent state.
The testcase added by this patch illustrates this. The test program
just loops a number of times calling the "foo" function.
The idea is to set a breakpoint in the "foo" function with a condition
that sends SIGINT to GDB, and then evaluates to false, which results
in the program being re-resumed in the background. The SIGINT-sending
emulates pressing Ctrl-C just while GDB was evaluating the breakpoint
condition, except, it's more deterministic.
It looks like this:
(gdb) p $counter = 0
$1 = 0
(gdb) b foo if $counter++ == 10 || $_shell("kill -SIGINT `pidof gdb`") != 0
Breakpoint 2 at 0x555555555131: file gdb.base/bg-exec-sigint-bp-cond.c, line 21.
(gdb) c&
Continuing.
(gdb)
After that background continue, the breakpoint should be hit 10 times,
and we should see 10 "Quit" being printed on the screen. As if the
user typed Ctrl-C on the prompt a number of times with no inferior
running:
(gdb) <<< Ctrl-C
(gdb) Quit <<< Ctrl-C
(gdb) Quit <<< Ctrl-C
(gdb)
However, here's what you see instead:
(gdb) c&
Continuing.
(gdb) Quit
(gdb)
Just one Quit, and nothing else. If we look at the thread's state, we see:
(gdb) info threads
Id Target Id Frame
* 1 Thread 0x7ffff7d6f740 (LWP 112192) "bg-exec-sigint-" foo () at gdb.base/bg-exec-sigint-bp-cond.c:21
So the thread stopped, but we didn't report a stop...
Issuing another continue shows the same immediate-and-silent-stop:
(gdb) c&
Continuing.
(gdb) Quit
(gdb) p $counter
$2 = 2
As mentioned, since the run control handling, and breakpoint and
watchpoint evaluation, etc. are running in the background from the
perspective of the CLI, when users type Ctrl-C in this situation,
they're thinking of aborting whatever other command they were typing
or running at the prompt, not the run control side, not the previous
"c&" command.
So I think that we should install a custom quit_handler while inside
fetch_inferior_event, where we already disable pagination and other
things for a similar reason. This custom quit handler does nothing if
GDB has the terminal, and forwards Ctrl-C to the inferior otherwise.
With the patch implementing that, and the same testcase, here's what
you see instead:
(gdb) p $counter = 0
$1 = 0
(gdb) b foo if $counter++ == 10 || $_shell("kill -SIGINT `pidof gdb`") != 0
Breakpoint 2 at 0x555555555131: file gdb.base/bg-exec-sigint-bp-cond.c, line 21.
(gdb) c&
Continuing.

Add new "$_shell(CMD)" internal function
For testing a following patch, I wanted a way to send a SIGINT to GDB
from a breakpoint condition. And I didn't want to do it from a Python
breakpoint or Python function, as I wanted to exercise non-Python code
paths. So I thought I'd add a new $_shell internal function, that
runs a command under the shell, and returns the exit code. With this,
I could write:
(gdb) b foo if $_shell("kill -SIGINT $gdb_pid") != 0 || <other condition>
I think this is generally useful, hence I'm proposing it here.
Here's the new function in action:
(gdb) p $_shell("true")
$1 = 0
(gdb) p $_shell("false")
$2 = 1
(gdb) p $_shell("echo hello")
hello
$3 = 0
(gdb) p $_shell("foobar")
bash: line 1: foobar: command not found
$4 = 127
(gdb) help function _shell
$_shell - execute a shell command and returns the result.
Usage: $_shell (command)
Returns the command's exit code: zero on success, non-zero otherwise.

Make "ptype INTERNAL_FUNCTION" in Ada print like other languages
Currently, printing the type of an internal function in Ada shows
double <>s, like:
(gdb) with language ada -- ptype $_isvoid
type = <<internal function>>
while all other languages print it with a single <>, like:
(gdb) with language c -- ptype $_isvoid
type = <internal function>
I don't think there's a reason that Ada needs to be different. We
currently print the double <>s because we take this path in
ada_print_type:
switch (type->code ())
{
default:
gdb_printf (stream, "<");
c_print_type (type, "", stream, show, level, language_ada, flags);
gdb_printf (stream, ">");
break;
... and the type's name already has the <>s.
Fix this by simply adding an early check for
TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION.

Fix "ptype INTERNAL_FUNC" (PR gdb/30105)
Currently, looking at the type of an internal function, like below,
hits an odd error:
(gdb) ptype $_isvoid
type = <internal function>type not handled in c_type_print_varspec_prefix()
That is an error thrown from
c-typeprint.c:c_type_print_varspec_prefix, where it reads:
...
case TYPE_CODE_DECFLOAT:
case TYPE_CODE_FIXED_POINT:
/* These types need no prefix. They are listed here so that
gcc -Wall will reveal any types that haven't been handled. */
break;
default:
error (_("type not handled in c_type_print_varspec_prefix()"));
break;
Internal function types have type code TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION,
which is not explicitly handled by that switch.
That comment quoted above says that gcc -Wall will reveal any types
that haven't been handled, but that's not actually true, at least with
modern GCCs. You would need to enable -Wswitch-enum for that, which
we don't. If I do enable that warning, then I see that we're missing
handling for the following type codes:
TYPE_CODE_INTERNAL_FUNCTION,
TYPE_CODE_MODULE,
TYPE_CODE_NAMELIST,
TYPE_CODE_XMETHOD
TYPE_CODE_MODULE and TYPE_CODE_NAMELIST and Fortran-specific, so it'd
be a little weird to handle them here.
I tried to reach this code with TYPE_CODE_XMETHOD, but couldn't figure
out how to. ptype on an xmethod isn't treated specially, it just
complains that the method doesn't exist. I've extended the
gdb.python/py-xmethods.exp testcase to make sure of that.
My thinking is that whatever type code we add next, the most likely
scenario is that it won't need any special handling, so we'd just be
adding another case to that "do nothing" list. If we do need special
casing for whatever type code, I think that tests added at the same
time as the feature would uncover it anyhow. If we do miss adding the
special casing, then it still looks better to me to print the type
somewhat incompletely than to error out and make it harder for users
to debug whatever they need. So I think that the best thing to do
here is to just remove all those explicit "do nothing" cases, along
with the error default case.
After doing that, I decided to write a testcase that iterates over all
supported languages doing "ptype INTERNAL_FUNC". That revealed that
Pascal has a similar problem, except the default case hits a
gdb_assert instead of an error:
(gdb) with language pascal -- ptype $_isvoid
type =
../../src/gdb/p-typeprint.c:268: internal-error: type_print_varspec_prefix: unexpected type
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
That is fixed by this patch in the same way.
You'll notice that the new testcase special-cases the Ada expected
output:
} elseif {$lang == "ada"} {
gdb_test "ptype \$_isvoid" "<<internal function>>"
} else {
gdb_test "ptype \$_isvoid" "<internal function>"
}
That will be subject of the following patch.

The problem is a stale entry in the bfcache hash table (in
record-btrace.c), left across a reinit_frame_cache. This entry points
to something that used to be allocated on the frame obstack, that has
since been wiped by reinit_frame_cache.
Before the aforementioned, unwinder deallocation functions were called
by iterating on the frame chain, starting with the sentinel frame, like
so:
/* Tear down all frame caches. */
for (frame_info *fi = sentinel_frame; fi != NULL; fi = fi->prev)
{
if (fi->prologue_cache && fi->unwind->dealloc_cache)
fi->unwind->dealloc_cache (fi, fi->prologue_cache);
if (fi->base_cache && fi->base->unwind->dealloc_cache)
fi->base->unwind->dealloc_cache (fi, fi->base_cache);
}
After that patch, we relied on the fact that all frames are (supposedly)
in the frame_stash. A deletion function was added to the frame_stash
hash table, so that dealloc functions would be called when emptying the
frame stash. There is one case, however, where a frame_info is not in
the frame stash. That is when we create the frame_info for the current
frame (level 0, unwound from the sentinel frame), but don't compute its
frame id. The computation of the frame id for that frame (and only that
frame, AFAIK) is done lazily. And putting a frame_info in the frame stash
requires knowing its id. So a frame 0 whose frame id is not computed
yet is necessarily not in the frame stash.
When replaying with btrace, record_btrace_frame_sniffer insert entries
corresponding to frames in the "bfcache" hash table. It then relies on
record_btrace_frame_dealloc_cache being called for each frame to remove
all those entries when the frames get invalidated. If a frame reinit
happens while frame 0's id is not computed (and therefore that frame is
not in frame_stash), record_btrace_frame_dealloc_cache does not get
called for it, and it leaves a stale entry in bfcache. That then leads
to a use-after-free when that entry is accessed later, which ASan
catches.
The proposed solution is to explicitly call frame_info_del on frame 0,
if it exists, and if its frame id is not computed. If its frame id is
computed, it is expected that it will be in the frame stash, so it will
be "deleted" through that.

Remove RETURNS from BFD chew comments
When reading the BFD manual, I noticed text like this:

*Returns*

This patch removes all the uses of the RETURNS word and removes it
entirely from the chew scripts. Now this example reads:

Use @deftypefn in chew output
When reading the BFD info manual, function definitions looked very
strange to me:
*Synopsis*
long bfd_get_mtime (bfd *abfd);
*Description*
Return the file modification time (as read from the file system, or from
the archive header for archive members).
The *Synopsis* and *Description* text in particular is very un-info-like.
To fix this, I tried removing the *Synopsis* text and having FUNCTION
use @deftypefn instead. However, this ended up requiring some new
state, because SYNOPSIS can appear without FUNCTION. This in turn
required "catstrif" (I considered adding FORTH-style if-else-then, but
in the end decided on an ad hoc approach).
After this the result looks like:
-- Function: long bfd_get_mtime (bfd *abfd);

gdb: store internalvars in an std::map
In a test downstream in ROCgdb, we had a test case failing when
GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS was set. The test was assuming a particular
order in the output of "show convenience". And the order changes when
running with GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS.
I think that a nice way to fix it is to make the output of "show
convenience" sorted, and therefore stable. Ideally, I think that the
the user-visible behavior of GDB should not change when using
GDB_REVERSE_INIT_FUNCTIONS. Plus, it makes the output of "show
convenience" look nice, not that it's really important.
Implement this by storing the internal vars in an std::map, which is a

../../binutils-gdb/gdb/ppc-linux-nat.c: In member function ‘int ppc_linux_nat_target::num_memory_accesses(const std::vector<gdb::ref_ptr<value, value_ref_policy> >&)’:
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/ppc-linux-nat.c:2458:44: error: expected unqualified-id before ‘->’ token
2458 | if (VALUE_LVAL (v) == not_lval || v->->deprecated_modifiable () == 0)
I don't know how that happened, but I am checking in this patch which
I think should fix it. It just removes the second "->".
I can't readily test this, so perhaps there's another bug lurking
after this one.

gdb/python: deallocate tui window factories at Python shut down
The previous commit relied on spotting when a Python defined TUI
window factory was deleted. I spotted that the window factories are
not deleted when GDB shuts down its Python environment, they are only
deleted when one window factory replaces another. Consider this
example Python script:
class TestWindowFactory:
def __init__(self, msg):
self.msg = msg
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: %s" % self.msg)
def __call__(self, tui_win):
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__call__: %s" % self.msg)
return TestWindow(tui_win, self.msg)
def __del__(self):
print("Entering TestWindowFactory.__del__: %s" % self.msg)
gdb.register_window_type("test_window", TestWindowFactory("A"))
gdb.register_window_type("test_window", TestWindowFactory("B"))
And this GDB session:
(gdb) source tui.py
Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: A
Entering TestWindowFactory.__init__: B
Entering TestWindowFactory.__del__: B
(gdb) quit
Notice that when the 'B' window replaces the 'A' window we see the 'A'
object being deleted. But, when Python is shut down (after the
'quit') the 'B' object is never deleted.
Instead, GDB retains a reference to the window factory object, which
forces the Python object to remain live even after the Python
interpreter itself has been shut down.
The references themselves are held in a dynamically allocated
std::unordered_map (in tui/tui-layout.c) which is never deallocated,
thus the underlying Python references are never decremented to zero,
and so GDB never tries to delete these Python objects.
This commit is the first half of the work to clean up this edge case.
All gdbpy_tui_window_maker objects (the objects that implement the
TUI window factory callback for Python defined TUI windows), are now
linked together into a global list using the intrusive list mechanism.
When GDB shuts down the Python interpreter we can now walk this global
list and release the reference that is held to the underlying Python
object. By releasing this reference the Python object will now be
deleted.
I've added a new assert in gdbpy_tui_window_maker::operator(), this
will catch the case where we somehow end up in here after having
reset the reference to the underlying Python object. I don't think
this should ever happen though as we only clear the references when
shutting down the Python interpreter, and the ::operator() function is
only called when trying to apply a new TUI layout - something that
shouldn't happen while GDB itself is shutting down.
This commit does not update the std::unordered_map in tui-layout.c,
that will be done in the next commit.

gdb/python: allow Python TUI windows to be replaced
The documentation for gdb.register_window_type says:
"... It's an error to try to replace one of the built-in windows,
but other window types can be replaced. ..."
I take this to mean that if I imported a Python script like this:
gdb.register_window_type('my_window', FactoryFunction)
Then GDB would have a new TUI window 'my_window', which could be
created by calling FactoryFunction(). If I then, in the same GDB
session imported a script which included:
gdb.register_window_type('my_window', UpdatedFactoryFunction)
Then GDB would replace the old 'my_window' factory with my new one,
GDB would now call UpdatedFactoryFunction().
This is pretty useful in practice, as it allows users to iterate on
their window implementation within a single GDB session.
However, right now, this is not how GDB operates. The second call to
register_window_type is basically ignored and the old window factory
is retained.
This is because in tui_register_window (tui/tui-layout.c) we use
std::unordered_map::emplace to insert the new factory function, and
emplace doesn't replace an existing element in an unordered_map.
In this commit, before the emplace call, I now search for an already
existing element, and delete any matching element from the map, the
emplace call will then add the new factory function.
