gdb: add gdbarch::displaced_step_buffer_length
The gdbarch::max_insn_length field is used mostly to support displaced
stepping; it controls the size of the buffers allocated for the
displaced-step instruction, and is also used when first copying the
instruction, and later, when fixing up the instruction, in order to
read in and parse the instruction being stepped.
However, it has started to be used in other places in GDB, for
example, it's used in the Python disassembler API, and it is used on
amd64 as part of branch-tracing instruction classification.
The problem is that the value assigned to max_insn_length is not
always the maximum instruction length, but sometimes is a multiple of
that length, as required to support displaced stepping, see rs600,
ARM, and AArch64 for examples of this.
It seems to me that we are overloading the meaning of the
max_insn_length field, and I think that could potentially lead to
confusion.
I propose that we add a new gdbarch field,
gdbarch::displaced_step_buffer_length, this new field will do
exactly what it says on the tin; represent the required displaced step
buffer size. The max_insn_length field can then do exactly what it
claims to do; represent the maximum length of a single instruction.
As some architectures (e.g. i386, and amd64) only require their
displaced step buffers to be a single instruction in size, I propose
that the default for displaced_step_buffer_length will be the
value of max_insn_length. Architectures than need more buffer space
can then override this default as needed.
I've updated all architectures to setup the new field if appropriate,
and I've audited all calls to gdbarch_max_insn_length and switched to
gdbarch_displaced_step_buffer_length where appropriate.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

gdbarch: make invalid=True the default for all Components
This commit switches the default value for the 'invalid' field from
False to True. All components that previous set the invalid field to
True explicitly have had the field removed.
I think that True is a good choice for the default, this means that we
now get the validity checks by default, and if anyone adds a new
Component they need to make a choice to add an 'invalid=False' line
and disable the validation.
The flip side of this is that 'invalid=False' seems to be far more
common than 'invalid=True'. But I don't see a huge problem with this,
we shouldn't be aiming to reduce our typing, rather we should choose
based on which is least likely to introduce bugs. I think assuming
that we should do a validity check will achieve that.
Some additional components need to have an 'invalid=False' line added
to their definition, these are components that have a predefault
value, which is sufficient; the tdep code doesn't need to replace this
value if it doesn't want to.
Without adding the 'invalid=False' these components would be
considered to be invalid if they have not changed from their
predefault value -- but the predefault is fine.
There's no change in the generated code after this commit, so there
will be no user visible changes after this commit.

gdbarch: remove some unneeded predefault="0" from gdbarch_components.py
I noticed that there are a bunch of 'predefault="0"' lines in
gdbarch_components.py, and that some (just some, not all) of these are
not needed.
The gdbarch is already zero initialized, but these lines seem to
exists so that we can know when to compare against "0" and when to
compare against "NULL". At least, this seems to be useful in some
places in the generated code.
Specifically, if we remove the predefault="0" line from the
max_insn_length component then we end up generating a line like:
gdb_assert (gdbarch->max_insn_length != NULL);
which doesn't compile as we compare a ULONGEST to NULL.
In this commit I remove all the predefault="0" lines that I claim are
obviously not needed. These are lines for components that are not
Values (i.e. the component holds a function pointer anyway), or for
Value components that hold a pointer type, in which case using NULL is
fine.
The only changes after this commit are some fields that have nullptr
as their initial value, and gcore_bfd_target now compares to NULL not
0 in gdbarch_gcore_bfd_target_p, which, given the field is of type
'const char *', seems like an improvement.

gdbarch: improve generation of validation in gdbarch getters
We currently generate some validation code within the gdbarch getter
methods.
This commit adjusts the algorithm used to generate this validation
slightly to make the gdbarch.py code (I think) clearer; there's no
significant changes to what is generated.
The validation algorithm for gdbarch values is now:
- If the Value has an 'invalid' field that is a string, use that for
validation,
- If the Value has its 'predicate' field set to true, then check the
predicate returns true, this ensures the predicate has been
called,
- If the Value has its 'invalid' field set to True, or the Value has
'postdefault' field, then check the fields has changed from its
initial value,
- Otherwise no validation is performed.
The only changes after this commit are:
- Some comments change slightly, and
- For 'gcore_bfd_target' and 'max_insn_length' we now validate by
calling the predicate rather than checking the field value
directly, the underlying check being performed is unchanged
though.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

gdb/gdbarch: remove the 'invalid=None' state from gdbarch_components.py
This commit ensures that the 'invalid' property of all components is
either True, False, or a string.
Additionally, this commit allows a component to have both a predicate
and for the 'invalid' property to be a string.
Removing the option for 'invalid' to be None allows us to simplify the
algorithms in gdbarch.py a little.
Allowing a component to have both a predicate and an 'invalid' string
means that we can validate the value that a tdep sets into a field,
but also allow a predicate to ensure that the field has changed from
the default.
This functionality isn't going to be used in this series, but I have
tested it locally and believe that it would work, and this might make
it easier for others to add new components in the future.
In gdbarch_types.py, I've updated the type annotations to show that
the 'invalid' field should not be None, and I've changed the default
for this field from None to False.
The change to using False as the default is temporary. Later in this
series I'm going to change the default to True, but we need more fixes
before that can be done.
Additionally, in gdbarch_types.py I've removed an assert from
Component.get_predicate. This assert ensured that we didn't have the
predicate field set to True and the invalid field set to a string.
However, no component currently uses this configuration, and after
this commit, that combination is now supported, so the assert can be
removed.
As a consequence of the gdbarch_types.py changes we see some
additional comments generated in gdbarch.c about verification being
skipped due to the invalid field being False. This comment is inline
with plenty of other getters that also have a similar comment. Plenty
of the getters do have validation, so I think it is reasonable to have
a comment noting that the validation has been skipped for a specific
reason, rather than due to some bug.
In gdbarch_components.py I've had to add 'invalid=True' for two
components: gcore_bfd_target and max_insn_length, without this the
validation in the gdbarch getter would disappear.
And in gdbarch.py I've reworked the logic for generating the
verify_gdbarch function, and for generating the getter functions.
The logic for generating the getter functions is still not ideal, I
ended up having to add this additional logic block:
elif c.postdefault is not None and c.predefault is not None:
print(" /* Check variable changed from pre-default. */", file=f)
print(f" gdb_assert (gdbarch->{c.name} != {c.predefault});", file=f)
which was needed to ensure we continued to generate the same code as
before, without this the fact that invalid is now False when it would
previously have been None, meant that we dropped the gdb_assert in
favour of a comment like:
print(f" /* Skip verify of {c.name}, invalid_p == 0 */", file=f)
which is clearly not a good change. We could potentially look at
improving this in a later commit, but I don't plan to do that in this
series.

This doesn't seem reasonable to me, I see no reason why a field can't

Fix crash in inside_main_func
gdb 13.1 crashes while running the rust compiler's debugger tests.
The crash has a number of causes.
First, the rust compiler still uses the C++-like _Z mangling, but with
its own twist -- some hex digits added to the end of a symbol. So,
while gdb finds the correct name of "main":
(top-gdb) p name
$13 = 0x292e0c0 "rustc_gdb_1031745::main"
It isn't found in the minsyms, because C++ demangling yields:
[99] t 0x90c0 _ZN17rustc_gdb_10317454main17h5b5be7fe16a97225E section .text rustc_gdb_1031745::main::h5b5be7fe16a97225 zko06yobckx336v
This could perhaps be fixed. I also filed a new PR to suggest
preferring the linkage name of the main program.
Next, the rust compiler emits both a DW_TAG_subprogram and a
DW_TAG_namespace for "main". This happens because the file is named
"main.rs" -- i.e., the bug is specific to the source file name. The
crash also seems to require the nested function inside of 'main', at
least for me. The namespace always is generated, but perhaps this
changes the ordering in the DWARF.
When inside_main_func looks up the main symbol, it finds the namespace
symbol rather than the function. (I filed a bug about fixing gdb's
symbol tables -- long overdue.)
Meanwhile, as I think it's important to fix this crash sooner rather
than later, this patch changes inside_main_func to check that the
symbol that is found is LOC_BLOCK. This perhaps should have been done
in the first place, anyway.

include paths to directories within a clone or release tarball, then
headers from the external binutils package are used which can result
in build failures if the external binutils package is out of sync with
the version of GDB being built.
To fix, sort the include paths in INTERNAL_CFLAGS_BASE to add CFLAGS
for "local" componenets before external components.

[ Using $pp as shorthand for the pagination prompt

The test-case gdb.python/py-cmd.exp passes, but the handling of the
test_multiline command output looks a bit odd:
...

test_multiline output
$ppPASS: gdb.python/py-cmd.exp: verify pagination from test_multiline: q
...
What happens is:
- a test_multiline command is issued
- some output is printed, followed by a pagination prompt
- the test-case concludes that pagination occurred, and produces a PASS
- "q\n" is replied to the pagination prompt
- without waiting for response to the "q\n", another test_multiline command is
issued
- in response to the "q\n" we get "Quit\n(gdb) "
- some output is printed, followed by a pagination prompt
- the test-case concludes that there's a valid response to the "q\n", and
produces a PASS, consuming the second pagination prompt, but without a reply.
My conclusion is that the second test_multiline command is unintentional, so fix
this by removing it.
Without it, we have the more straightforward:
...
(gdb) test_multiline

another benefit then: We can replace the two uses of current_templates

tests killing gdbserver twice
- the method to get the gdbserver PID added in the commit doesn't work
for target board remote-gdbserver-on-localhost, it returns the
PID of the ssh client session instead.
Fixing the method for getting the inferior PID gives us fails, and there's no
evidence that killing the inferior ever worked.
So, fix this by reverting the commit and just killing gdbserver, using the
original method of getting the gdbserver PID which does work for target board
remote-gdbserver-on-localhost.

[gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp for remote target
Test-case gdb.server/connect-with-no-symbol-file.exp fails with target board
remote-gdbserver-on-localhost.
The problem is here:
...
set target_exec [gdb_remote_download target $binfile.bak $binfile]
...
A "gdb_remote_download target" copies from build to target. So $binfile is
assumed to be a target path, but it's actually a build path.
Fix this by:
- fist copying $binfile.bak to $binfile, and
- simply doing [gdb_remote_download target $binfile].
Then, $binfile.bak is created here:
...
# Make sure we have the original symbol file in a safe place to copy from.
gdb_remote_download host $binfile $binfile.bak
...
and since "gdb_remote_download host" copies from build to host, $binfile.bak
is assumed to be a host path, but it's actually a build path. This happens to
cause no problems in this configuration (because build == host), but it would
for a remote host configuration.
So let's fix this by making build rather than host the "safe place to copy
from".

gdb/amdgpu: provide dummy implementation of gdbarch_return_value_as_value
The AMD GPU support has been merged shortly after commit
4e1d2f5814b2
("Add new overload of gdbarch_return_value"), which made it mandatory
for architectures to provide either a return_value or
return_value_as_value implementation. Because of my failure to test
properly after rebasing and before pushing, we get this with the current
master:
$ gdb ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q -ex "set arch amdgcn:gfx1010" -batch
/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbarch.c:517: internal-error: verify_gdbarch: the following are invalid ...
return_value_as_value
I started trying to change GDB to not force architectures to provide a
return_value or return_value_as_value implementation, but Andrew pointed
out that any serious port will have an implementation one day or
another, and it's easy to add a dummy implementation in the mean time.
So it's better to not complicate the core of GDB to know how to deal
with this.
There is an implementation of return_value in the downstream ROCgdb port
(which we'll need to convert to the new return_value_as_value), which
we'll contribute soon-ish. In the mean time, add a dummy implementation
of return_value_as_value to avoid the failed assertion.

Clean up attribute reprocessing
I ran across the attribute reprocessing code recently and noticed that
it unconditionally sets members of the CU when reading a DIE. Also,
each spot reading attributes needs to be careful to "reprocess" them
as a separate step.
This seemed excessive to me, because while reprocessing applies to any
DIE, setting the CU members is only necessary for the toplevel DIE in
any given CU.
This patch introduces a new read_toplevel_die function and changes a
few spots to call it. This is easily done because reading the
toplevel DIE is already special.
I left the reprocessing flag and associated checks in attribute. It
could be stripped out, but I am not sure it would provide much value
(maybe some iota of performance).
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 36.

gdb: make interp::m_name an `const char *`
I realized that the memory for interp names does not need to be
allocated. The name used to register interp factory functions is always
a literal string, so has static storage duration. If we change
interp_lookup to pass that name instead of the string that it receives
as a parameter (which does not always have static storage duration),
then interps can simply store pointers to the name.
So, change interp_lookup to pass `factory.name` rather than `name`.
Change interp::m_name to be a `const char *` rather than an std::string.
