[varobj] false type-changed status for reference to Ada array
Given the following variable...
BT : Bounded := New_Bounded (Low => 1, High => 3);
... where type Bounded is defined as a simple unconstrained array:
type Bounded is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
Creating a varobj for that variable, and immediately asking for
varobj updates, GDB says that our varobj changed types!
(gdb)
-var-create bt * bt
^done,name="bt",numchild="3",value="[3]",type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",has_more="0"
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[{name="bt",value="[3]",in_scope="true",type_changed="true",new_type="<ref> array (1 .. 3) of integer",new_num_children="3",has_more="0"}]
The expected output for the -var-update command is, in this case:
(gdb)
-var-update 1 *
^done,changelist=[]
The problem occurs because the ada-varobj module does not handle
references, and while the references gets stripped when the varobj
gets created, it doesn't when computing varobj updates.
More specifically, when creating the varobj, varobj_create creates
a new value which is a reference to a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. It then calls
install_new_value which calls coerce_ref with the following comment:
/* We are not interested in the address of references, and given
that in C++ a reference is not rebindable, it cannot
meaningfully change. So, get hold of the real value. */
if (value)
value = coerce_ref (value);
This leaves the varobj's type component still a ref, while
the varobj's value is now our array, without the ref. This explains
why the "value" field in the varobj indicates an array with 3 elements
"[3]" while the "type" field shows a ref to an array. Generally
speaking, most users have said that showing the ref was a useful
piece of information, so this patch is not touching this part.
Next, when the user issues the -var-update request, varobj_update
calls value_of_root to compute the varobj's new value as well as
determine whether the value's type has changed or not. What happens
in a nutshell is that it calls value_of_root_1 (which re-evaluates
the expression and returns the corresponding new value), finds that
the new value is not NULL, and thus asks whether it has mutated:
else if (varobj_value_has_mutated (var, value, value_type (value)))
This then indirectly delegates the determination to the language-specific
callback, which fails, because it does not handle references.
This patch fixes the issue by adjusting varobj_value_has_mutated to
expect references, and strip them when seen. This allows the various
language-specific implementations to remain unaware of references.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* varobj.c (varobj_value_has_mutated): If NEW_VALUE is
a reference, strip the reference layer before calling
the lang_ops value_has_mutated callback.

example, running testsuite like

some tests in gdb.base/completion.exp test command complete, which

commands at all now throws an error. But the dprintf tests still fail
with some GDBserver targets because they doesn't try to handle the

this patch moves traceframe_available_memory down to the target side.
After this patch, the gdb core code is cleaner, and code on handling
unavailable memory is moved to remote/tfile/ctf targets.
In details, this patch moves traceframe_available_memory code from
memory_xfer_partial_1 to remote target only, so remote target still
uses traceframe_info mechanism to check unavailable memory, and use
remote_ops to read them from read-only sections. We don't use
traceframe_info mechanism for tfile and ctf target, because it is
fast to iterate all traceframes from trace file, so the summary
information got from traceframe_info is not necessary.

Fix py-finish-breakpoint.exp with target async.
With target async enabled, py-finish-breakpoint.exp triggers an
assertion failure.
The failure occurs because execute_command re-enters the event loop in
some circumstances, and in this case resets the sync_execution flag.
Then later GDB reaches this assertion in normal_stop:
gdb_assert (sync_execution || !target_can_async_p ());
In detail:
#1 - A synchronous execution command is run. sync_execution is set.
#2 - A python breakpoint is hit (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED), and the
corresponding Python breakpoint's stop method is executed. When
and while python commands are executed, interpreter_async is
forced to 0.
#3 - The Python stop method happens to execute a not-execution-related
gdb command. In this case, "where 1".
#4 - Seeing that sync_execution is set, execute_command nests a new
event loop (although that wasn't necessary; this is the problem).
#5 - The linux-nat target's pipe in the event loop happens to be
marked. That's normal, due to this in linux_nat_wait:
/* If we requested any event, and something came out, assume there
may be more. If we requested a specific lwp or process, also
assume there may be more. */
The nested event loop thus immediately wakes up and calls
target_wait. No thread is actually executing in the inferior, so
the target returns TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.
#6 - normal_stop is reached. GDB prints "No unwaited-for children
left.", and resets the sync_execution flag (IOW, there are no
resumed threads left, so the synchronous command is considered
completed.) This is already bogus. We were handling a
breakpoint!
#7 - the nested event loop unwinds/ends. GDB is now back to handling
the python stop method (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED), which decides
the breakpoint should stop. normal_stop is called for this
event. However, normal_stop actually works with the _last_
reported target status:
void
normal_stop (void)
{
struct target_waitstatus last;
ptid_t last_ptid;
struct cleanup *old_chain = make_cleanup (null_cleanup, NULL);
...
get_last_target_status (&last_ptid, &last);
...
if (last.kind == TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED)
{
gdb_assert (sync_execution || !target_can_async_p ());
target_terminal_ours_for_output ();
printf_filtered (_("No unwaited-for children left.\n"));
}
And due to the nesting in execute command, the last event is now
TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, not the actual breakpoint event being
handled. This could be seen to be broken in itself, but we can
leave fixing that for another pass. The assertion is reached, and
fails.
execute_command has a comment explaining when it should synchronously
wait for events:
/* If the interpreter is in sync mode (we're running a user
command's list, running command hooks or similars), and we
just ran a synchronous command that started the target, wait
for that command to end. */
However, the code did not follow this comment -- it didn't check to
see if the command actually started the target, just whether the
target was executing a sync command at this point.
This patch fixes the problem by noting whether the target was
executing in sync_execution mode before running the command, and then
augmenting the condition to test this as well.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/dprintf.exp: 1st dprintf, call
The problem is that GDB gave the prompt back to the user too early.
This happens when calling functions while handling an event that
doesn't cause a user visible stop. dprintf with "set dprintf-style
gdb" is one such case. This patch adds a test case that has a
breakpoint with a condition that calls a function that returns false,
so that regression testing isn't dependent on the implementation of
dprintf.
The problem happens because run_inferior_call causes GDB to forget
that it is running in sync_execution mode, so any event that runs an
inferior call causes fetch_inferior_event to display the prompt, even
if the event should not result in a user visible stop (that is, gdb
resumes the inferior and waits for the next event).
This patch fixes the issue by noticing when GDB was in sync_execution
mode in run_inferior_call, and taking care to restore this state
afterward.

Further cleanup of signal-while-stepping-over-bp-other-thread.c.
This test now uses pthread_kill instead of the host's kill command, so
no longer need to block signals, or store the the inferior's PID.

* gdb.threads/signal-while-stepping-over-bp-other-thread.c (pid):
Delete.

Make signal-while-stepping-over-bp-other-thread.exp run against remote targets too.
Use pthread_kill instead of the host's "kill". The reason the test
wasn't written that way to begin with, is that done this way, before
the previous fixes to make GDB step-over all other threads before the
stepping thread, the test would fail...
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

* gdb.threads/signal-while-stepping-over-bp-other-thread.c (main):
Use pthread_kill to signal thread 2.
* gdb.threads/signal-while-stepping-over-bp-other-thread.exp:
Adjust to make the test send itself a signal rather than using the
host's "kill" command.
