Add a selftest that checks documentation invariants.
Several approaches were discussed (mail or irc) to verify the invariants of
the GDB help documentation : checking with apropos ., modifying add_cmd
to do the check and output a warning, implement maintenance check-doc.
A selftest was finally chosen as:
* this can be run on demand, including by users if they want
to check user defined commands.
* it does not interact with the normal behaviour of apropos, define,
python, ...
(such as output warnings when a user defines a command help that
does not respect the doc).
* when the selftest runs, it checks the user defined and python
defined commands currently defined.

Make first and last lines of 'command help documentation' consistent.
With this patch, the help docs now respect 2 invariants:
* The first line of a command help is terminated by a '.' character.
* The last character of a command help is not a newline character.
Note that the changes for the last invariant were done by Tom, as part of :
[PATCH] Remove trailing newlines from help text
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-06/msg00050.html
but some occurrences have been re-introduced since then.
Some help docs had to be rephrased/restructured to respect the above
invariants.
Before this patch, print_doc_line was printing the first line
of a command help documentation, but stopping at the first '.'
or ',' character.
This was giving inconsistent results :
* The first line of command helps was sometimes '.' terminated,
sometimes not.
* The first line of command helps was not always designed to be
readable/understandable/unambiguous when stopping at the first
'.' or ',' character.
This e.g. created the following inconsistencies/problems:
< catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions
< catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names
< down-silently -- Same as the `down' command
while the new help is:
> catch exception -- Catch Ada exceptions, when raised.
> catch handlers -- Catch Ada exceptions, when handled.
> catch syscall -- Catch system calls by their names, groups and/or numbers.
> down-silently -- Same as the `down' command, but does not print anything.
Also, the command help doc should not be terminated by a newline
character, but this was not respected by all commands.
The cli-option -OPT framework re-introduced some occurences.
So, the -OPT build help framework was changed to not output newlines at the
end of %OPTIONS% replacement.
This patch changes the help documentations to ensure the 2 invariants
given above.
It implied to slightly rephrase or restructure some help docs.
Based on the above invariants, print_doc_line (called by
'apropos' and 'help' commands to print the first line of a command
help) now outputs the full first line of a command help.
This all results in a lot of small changes in the produced help docs.
There are less code changes than changes in the help docs, as a lot
of docs are produced by some code (e.g. the remote packet usage settings).

[PR build/24886] disable glibc mcheck support
This patch drops gdb's configury support for glibc's mcheck function.
It has been observed to cause false abort()s, because it is
thread-unsafe yet interposes every malloc/free operation. So if any
library transitively used by gdb also uses threads, then these
functions can easily corrupt their own checking data. These days, gcc
ASAN and valgrind provide high quality checking, and mcheck is
apparently itself being slowly deprecated.
So, let's stop linking to it. Attached patch drops the
autoconf/Makefile machinery for both gdb and gdbserver. No
testsuite-visible impact. IMHO not worth mentioning in NEWS.

Clean up source file error reporting
print_source_lines_base reopens the source file every time that a
source line is to be printed. However, there's no need to do this so
frequently -- it's enough to do it when switching source files, and
otherwise rely on the cache.
The code seems to try to avoid these multiple opens; at a guess I'd

more clear, and to ensure that reopens only occur when the "last

Add file offsets to the source cache
Currently, gdb stores the number of lines and an array of file offsets
for the start of each line in struct symtab. This patch moves this
information to the source cache. This has two benefits.
First, it allows gdb to read a source file less frequently.
Currently, a source file may be read multiple times: once when
computing the file offsets, once when highlighting, and then pieces
may be read again while printing source lines. With this change, the
file is read once for its source text and file offsets; and then
perhaps read again if it is evicted from the cache.
Second, if multiple symtabs cover the same source file, then this will
share the file offsets between them. I'm not sure whether this
happens in practice.

that because in a case like lib1.a lto.o lib2.a where lib1.a and

to pull in objects from lib2.a as necessary, but not from lib1.a.
Unfortunately this heuristic fails when the insert point is inside a

object before running over the contours of the script, thus missing
the fact that new undefs appeared in the group.

a later call to gettext.
However, in this case, there is no later call to gettext, so (if gdb
had translations), this text would remain untranslated.

Translators will have to know to preserve "%OPTIONS%" in the text --

Allow nested function displays
In Ada, it's possible to have nested functions. However,
block.c:contained_in does not recognize this. Normally, this is no
problem, but if gdb is stopped inside a nested function, then you can
end up in the unexpected situation that "print" of an expression will
work, whereas "display" of the same expression will not -- because
contained_in returns 0.
This patch simply removes the BLOCK_FUNCTION check from contained_in.
The rationale here is that in languages without nested functions, this
will not cause any issues.

Allow display of negative offsets in print_address_symbolic()
When examining addresses associated with blocks with non-contiguous
address ranges, it's not uncommon to see large positive offsets which,
for some address width, actually represent a smaller negative offset.
Here's an example taken from the test case (using the
dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold executable):
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x40110d <foo+
4294967277>: push %rbp
0x40110e <foo+
4294967278>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x401111 <foo+
4294967281>: callq 0x401106 <baz>
0x401116 <foo+
4294967286>: nop
0x401117 <foo+
4294967287>: pop %rbp
This commit, in conjuction with an earlier patch from this series, causes
cases like the above to be displayed like this (below) instead:
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x40110d <foo_cold>: push %rbp
0x40110e <foo-18>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x401111 <foo-15>: callq 0x401106 <baz>
0x401116 <foo-10>: nop
0x401117 <foo-9>: pop %rbp
Note that the address of foo_cold is now (due to another patch) being
displayed as <foo_cold> instead of <foo+BigOffset>. The subsequent
lines are shown as negative offsets from foo.
Disassembly using the "disassemble" command is somewhat affected by
these changes:
Before:

The FAIL happens because although the test specifies nopie, the exec is

Fix this by checking in gdb_compile if the resulting exec is PIE despite of

Implement 'set print frame-info|frame-arguments presence'.
New settings allow to better control what frame information is printed.
'set print frame-info' allows to override the default frame information
printed when a GDB command prints a frame.
The backtrace command has a new option -frame-info to override
this global setting.
It is now possible to have very short frame information by using the
new 'set print frame-arguments presence' and
'set print frame-info short-location'.
Combined with 'set print address off', a backtrace will only show
the essential information to see the function call chain, e.g.:
(gdb) set print address off
(gdb) set print frame-arguments presence
(gdb) set print frame-info short-location
(gdb) bt
#0 break_me ()
#1 call_me (...)
#2 main ()
(gdb)
This is handy in particular for big backtraces with functions having
many arguments.
Python frame filter printing logic has been updated to respect the new
setting in non MI mode.
Also, the default frame information printed was inconsistent when
backtrace was printing the frame information itself, or when the python
frame filtering code was printing the frame information.
This patch changes the default of python frame filtering to have a
consistent behaviour regarding printed frame-information, whatever
the presence/activity/matches of python filters.

return [skip_python_tests_prompt "$mi_gdb_prompt$"]

and expect reads "(gdb) " and tries to match it (due to the READ1=1 setting),
the user_code regexps using $prompt_regexp (set to $mi_gdb_prompt) don't match,

Fix stepping bug associated with non-contiguous blocks
I recently noticed the following behavior while debugging
dw2-ranges-func-low-cold. This is one of the test programs associated
with the test gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-func.exp.
(gdb) b 70
Breakpoint 1 at 0x401129: file dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold.c, line 70.
(gdb) run
Starting program: dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold

70 if (e) foo_cold (); /* foo foo_cold call */
(gdb) set var e=1
(gdb) step
[Inferior 1 (process 12545) exited normally]
This is incorrect. When stepping, we expect a step to occur. We do not
expect the program to exit. Instead, we should see the following behavior:
...
(gdb) set var e=1
(gdb) step
foo ()
at dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold.c:54
54 baz (); /* foo_cold baz call */
(Note that I've shortened the paths in the above sessions to improve
readability.)
The bug is in fill_in_stop_func() in infrun.c. While working on
non-contiguous address range improvements in 2018, I replaced the
call to find_pc_partial_function() with a call to
find_function_entry_range_from_pc(). Although this seemed like the
right thing to do at the time, I now think that calling
find_pc_partial_function (along with some other tweaks) is the right
thing to do.
For blocks with a single contiguous range, these functions do pretty
much the same thing: when the function succeeds, the function name,
start address, and end address are all filled in. Additionally,
find_pc_partial_function contains an additional output parameter
which is set to the block containing that PC.
For blocks with non-contiguous ranges, find_pc_partial_function
sets the start and end addresses to the start and end addresses
of the range containing the pc. find_function_entry_range_from_pc
does what it says; it sets the start and end addresses to those
of the range containing the entry pc.
The reason that I had thought that using the entry pc range was
correct is due to the fact that fill_in_stop_func() contains some
code for advancing past the function start and entry point. To do
this, we'd need the range that contains the entry pc.
However, when stepping, we actually want the range that contains the
stop pc. If that range also contains the entry pc, we should then
attempt to advance stop_func_start past the start offset and entry
point. (I haven't thought very hard about the reason for advancing
the stop_func_start in this manner. Since it's been there for quite
a while, I'm assuming that it's still a good idea.)
Back when I wrote the test case, I had included a test for doing the
step shown in the example above. I had problems with it, however. At
the time, I thought it was due to differing compiler versions, so I
disabled that portion of the test. I have now reenabled those tests,
but have left in place the logic which may be used to disable it.
The changes to dw2-ranges-func.exp depend on my other recent changes
to the file which have not been pushed yet.
Finally, I'll note that the only caller of
find_function_entry_range_from_pc() is/was fill_in_stop_func(). Once
this commit goes in, it'll be dead code. I considered removing it,
but I think that it ought to be used (instead of
find_pc_partial_function) for determining the correct range to scan
for prologue analysis, so I'm going to leave it in place for now.

* infrun.c (fill_in_stop_func): Use find_pc_partial_function
instead of find_function_entry_range_from_pc.

Improve test gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-func.exp
The original dw2-ranges-func.exp test caused a function named foo to be
created with two non-contiguous address ranges. In the C source file,
a function named foo_low was incorporated into the function foo which
was also defined in that file. The DWARF assembler is used to do this
manipulation. The source file had been laid out so that foo_low would
likely be placed (by the compiler and linker) at a lower address than
foo().
The case where a range at a higher set of addresses (than foo) was not
being tested. In a recent discussion on gdb-patches, it became clear
that performing such tests are desirable because bugs were discovered
which only became evident when the other range was located at high(er)
addresses than the range containing the entry point for the function.
This other (non entry pc) address range is typically used for "cold"
code which executes less frequently. Thus, I renamed foo_low to
foo_cold and renamed the C source file from dw-ranges-func.c to
dw-ranges-func-lo.c. I then made a copy of this file, naming it
dw-ranges-func-hi.c. (That was my intent anyway. According to git,
I renamed dw-ranges-func.c to dw-ranges-func-hi.c and then modified it.
dw-ranges-func-lo.c shows up as an entirely new file.)
Within dw-ranges-func-hi.c, I changed the placement of foo_cold()
along with some of the other functions so that foo_cold() would be at
a higher address than foo() while also remaining non-contiguous. The
two files, dw-ranges-func-lo.c and dw-ranges-func-hi.c, are
essentially the same except for the placement of some of the functions
therein.
The tests in dw2-ranges-func.exp where then wrapped in a new proc named
do_test which was then called in a loop from the outermost level. The
loop causes each of the source files to have the same tests run upon
them.
I also added a few new tests which test functionality fixed by the other
commits to this patch series. Due to the reorganization of the file,
it's hard to identify these changes in the patch. So, here are the
tests which were added:
with_test_prefix "no-cold-names" {
# Due to the calling sequence, this backtrace would normally
# show function foo_cold for frame #1. However, we don't want
# this to be the case due to placing it in the same block

# see foo for frames #1 and #2. It is incorrect to see
# foo_cold at frame #1.

"\[\r\n\]#3 .*? main \\(\\) "
}
# Doing x/2i foo_cold should show foo_cold as the first symbolic
# address and an offset from foo for the second. We also check to
# make sure that the offset is not too large - we don't GDB to
# display really large offsets that would (try to) wrap around the
# address space.

set foo_cold_offset $expect_out(1,string)
pass $test
}
}
gdb_assert {$foo_cold_offset <= 10000} "offset to foo_cold is not too large"
# Likewise, verify that second address shown by "info line" is at
# and offset from foo instead of foo_cold.
gdb_test "info line *foo_cold" "starts at address $hex <foo_cold> and ends at $hex <foo\[+-\].*?>.*"
}

dwarf2-frame.c: Fix FDE processing bug involving non-contiguous ranges
In the course of revising the test case for
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-func.exp, I added a new .c file which would
cause the "cold" range to be at a higher address than the rest of the
function. In these tests, the range in question isn't really cold in
the sense that a compiler has determined that it'll be executed less
frequently. Instead, it's simply the range that does not include the
entry pc. These tests are intended to mimic the output of such a
compiler, so I'll continue to refer to this range as "cold" in the
following discussion.
The original test case had only tested a cold range placed
at lower addresses than the rest of the function. During testing of the
new code where the cold range was placed at higher addresses, I found
that I could produce the following backtrace:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x0000000000401138 in baz ()
at dw2-ranges-func-hi-cold.c:72
#1 0x0000000000401131 in foo_cold ()
at dw2-ranges-func-hi-cold.c:64
#2 0x000000000040111e in foo ()
at dw2-ranges-func-hi-cold.c:50
#3 0x0000000000401144 in main ()
at dw2-ranges-func-hi-cold.c:78
This is correct, except that we'd like to see foo() listed instead
of foo_cold(). (I handle that problem in another patch.)
Now look at what happens for a similar backtrace where the cold range
is at a lower address than the foo's entry pc:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x000000000040110a in baz ()
at dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold.c:48
#1 0x0000000000401116 in foo ()
at dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold.c:54
#2 0x00007fffffffd4c0 in ?? ()
#3 0x0000000000401138 in foo ()
at dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold.c:70
Note that the backtrace doesn't go all the way back to main(). Moreover,
frame #2 is messed up.
I had seen this behavior when I had worked on the non-contiguous
address problem last year. At the time I convinced myself that the
mangled backtrace was "okay" since we're doing strange things with
the DWARF assembler. We're taking a function called foo_cold (though
it was originally called foo_low - my recent changes to the test case
changed the name) and via the magic of the DWARF assembler, we're
combining it into a separate (non-contiguous) range for foo. Thus,
it was a surprise to me when I got a good and complete backtrace when
the cold symbol is placed at an address that's greater than entry pc.
The function dwarf2_frame_cache (in dwarf2-frame.c) is making this
call:
if (get_frame_func_if_available (this_frame, &entry_pc)) ...
If that call succeeds (returns a true value), the FDE is then
processed up to the entry pc. It doesn't make sense to do this,
however, when the FDE in question does not contain the entry pc. This
can happen when the function in question is comprised of more than one
(non-contiguous) address range.
My fix is to add some comparisons to the test above to ensure that
ENTRY_PC is within the address range covered by the FDE.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2-frame.c (dwarf2_frame_cache): Don't decode FDE instructions
for entry pc when entry pc is out of range for that FDE.

Restrict use of minsym names when printing addresses in disassembled code
build_address_symbolic contains some code which causes it to
prefer the minsym over the the function symbol in certain cases.
The cases where this occurs are the same as the "certain pathological
cases" that used to exist in find_frame_funname().
This commit largely disables that code; it will only prefer the
minsym when the address of minsym is identical to that of the address
under consideration AND the function address for the symbtab sym is
not the same as the address under consideration.
So, without this change, when using the dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold
executable from the gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-func.exp test, GDB exhibits
the following behavior:
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x40110d <foo+
4294967277>: push %rbp
0x40110e <foo+
4294967278>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x401111 <foo+
4294967281>: callq 0x401106 <baz>
0x401116 <foo+
4294967286>: nop
0x401117 <foo+
4294967287>: pop %rbp
On the other hand, still without this change, using the
dw2-ranges-func-hi-cold executable from the same test, GDB
does this instead:
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x401128 <foo_cold>: push %rbp
0x401129 <foo_cold+1>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x40112c <foo_cold+4>: callq 0x401134 <baz>
0x401131 <foo_cold+9>: nop
0x401132 <foo_cold+10>: pop %rbp
This is inconsistent behavior. When foo_cold is at a lower
address than the function's entry point, the symtab symbol (foo)
is displayed along with a large positive offset which would wrap
around the address space if the address space were only 32 bits wide.
(A later patch fixes this problem by displaying negative offsets.)
This commit makes the behavior uniform for both the "lo-cold" and
"hi-cold" cases:
lo-cold:
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x40110d <foo_cold>: push %rbp
0x40110e <foo-18>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x401111 <foo-15>: callq 0x401106 <baz>
0x401116 <foo-10>: nop
0x401117 <foo-9>: pop %rbp
hi-cold:
(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
0x401128 <foo_cold>: push %rbp
0x401129 <foo+35>: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x40112c <foo+38>: callq 0x401134 <baz>
0x401131 <foo+43>: nop
0x401132 <foo+44>: pop %rbp
In both cases, the symbol shown for the address at which foo_cold
resides is shown as <foo_cold>. Subsequent offsets are shown as
either negative or positive offsets from the entry pc for foo.
When disassembling a function, care must be taken to NOT display
<+0> as the offset for the second range. For this reason, I found
it necessary to add the "prefer_sym_over_minsym" parameter to
build_address_symbolic. The type of this flag is a bool; do_demangle
ought to be a bool also, so I made this change at the same time.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* valprint.h (build_address_symbolic): Add "prefer_sym_over_minsym"

Prefer symtab symbol over minsym for function names in non-contiguous blocks
The discussion on gdb-patches which led to this patch may be found
here:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2019-05/msg00018.html
Here's a brief synopsis/analysis:
Eli Zaretskii, while debugging a Windows emacs executable, found
that functions comprised of more than one (non-contiguous)
address range were not being displayed correctly in a backtrace. This
is the example that Eli provided:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x76a63227 in KERNELBASE!DebugBreak ()
from C:\Windows\syswow64\KernelBase.dll
#1 0x012e7b89 in emacs_abort () at w32fns.c:10768
#2 0x012e1f3b in print_vectorlike.cold () at print.c:1824
#3 0x011d2dec in print_object (obj=<optimized out>, printcharfun=XIL(0),
escapeflag=true) at print.c:2150
The function print_vectorlike consists of two address ranges, one of
which contains "cold" code which is expected to not execute very often.
There is a minimal symbol, print_vectorlike.cold.65, which is the address
of the "cold" range.
GDB is prefering this minsym over the the name provided by the
DWARF info due to some really old code in GDB which handles
"certain pathological cases". This comment reads as follows:
/* In certain pathological cases, the symtabs give the wrong
function (when we are in the first function in a file which
is compiled without debugging symbols, the previous function
is compiled with debugging symbols, and the "foo.o" symbol
that is supposed to tell us where the file with debugging
symbols ends has been truncated by ar because it is longer
than 15 characters). This also occurs if the user uses asm()
to create a function but not stabs for it (in a file compiled
with -g).
So look in the minimal symbol tables as well, and if it comes
up with a larger address for the function use that instead.
I don't think this can ever cause any problems; there
shouldn't be any minimal symbols in the middle of a function;
if this is ever changed many parts of GDB will need to be
changed (and we'll create a find_pc_minimal_function or some
such). */
In an earlier version of this patch, I had left the code for the
pathological case intact, but those who reviwed that patch recommended
removing it. So that's what I've done - I've removed it.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* stack.c (find_frame_funname): Remove code which preferred
minsym over symtab sym in "certain pathological cases".
