gdb/cli-out.c: clear_current_line shouldn't trigger pagination prompt
clear_current_line overwrites the current line with chars_per_line
blank spaces. Printing the final space triggers a condition in
pager_file::puts that causes lines_printed to be incremented. If
lines_printed becomes greater than or equal to lines_allowed, the
pagination prompt will appear if enabled.
In this case the prompt is unnecessary since after printing the final
space clear_current_line immediately moves the cursor to the beginning
of the line with '\r'. A new line isn't actually started, so the prompt
ends up being spurious.
Additionally it's possible for gdb to crash during this pagination prompt.
Answering the prompt with 'q' throws an exception intended to bring gdb
back to the main event loop. But since commit
0fea10f32746,
clear_current_line may be called under the progress_update destructor.
The exception will try to propagate through the destructor, causing an abort.
To fix this, pagination is disabled for the duration for clear_current_line.
clear_current_line is also renamed to clear_progress_notify to help
indicate that it is a special purpose function intended for use with
do_progress_notify.

PR30437 aarch64: make RELA relocs idempotent
normally RELA relocs in BFD should not consider the contents of the
relocated place. The aarch64 psABI is even stricter, it specifies
(section 5.7.16) that all RELA relocs _must_ be idempotent.
Since the inception of the aarch64 BFD backend all the relocs have a
non-zero src_mask, and hence break this invariant. It's normally not
a very visible problem as one can see it only when the relocated place
already contains a non-zero value, which usually only happens sometimes
when using 'ld -r' (or as in the testcase when jumping through hoops to
generate the relocations). Or with alternative toolchains that do encode
stuff in the relocated places with the assumption that a relocation
to that place ignores whatever is there (as they can according to
the psABI).
Golang is such a toolchain and https://github.com/golang/go/issues/39927
is ultimately caused by this problem: the testcase testGCData failing
is caused by the garbage collection data-structure to describe a type
containing pointers to be wrong. It's wrong because a field that's
supposed to contain a file-relative offset (to some gcbits) has a
relocation applied and that relocation has an addend which also is
already part of the go-produced object file (so the addend is
implicitely applied twice).

gdb/testsuite: change hardcoded assembly in gdb.arch/disp-step-insn-reloc.exp
When testing gdb.arch/disp-step-insn-reloc.exp with clang in an x86_64
machine, the compiled test case would segfault when returning from
the function can_relocate_call, with a suggestion of a broken stack.
The example assembly in the commment was the following:
f:
MOV $1, %[ok]
JMP end
set_point0:
CALL f ; tracepoint here.
end:
And the segmentation fault happening at the final "ret" instruction of
can_relocate_call. Looking at the disassembled version of the later
half of the important function, we see:
Clang version (f starting at 11a4):
00000000000011ae <set_point0>:

401147: c9 leaveq
401148: c3 retq
The epilogue of set_point0 (11cf for clang, 401146 for gcc) is the main
difference: GCC's version uses the leaveq instruction, which resets rsp
based on rbp, while clang adds the same constant to rsp that it
subtracted in the prologue. Clang fails because the return address that
is added by the "call f" instruction isn't accounted for.
This commit fixes that by adding a return instruction to f, which leaves
the rsp as the compilers would expect.

gdb: fix post-hook execution for remote targets
Commit
b5661ff2 ("gdb: fix possible use-after-free when
executing commands") attempted to fix possible use-after-free
in case command redefines itself.
Commit
37e5833d ("gdb: fix command lookup in execute_command ()")
updated the previous fix to handle subcommands as well by using the
original command string to lookup the command again after its execution.
This fixed the test in gdb.base/define.exp but it turned out that it
does not work (at least) for "target remote" and "target extended-remote".
The problem is that the command buffer P passed to execute_command ()
gets overwritten in dont_repeat () while executing "target remote"
command itself:
#0 dont_repeat () at top.c:822
#1 0x000055555730982a in target_preopen (from_tty=1) at target.c:2483
#2 0x000055555711e911 in remote_target::open_1 (name=0x55555881c7fe ":1234", from_tty=1, extended_p=0)

#6 0x00005555573487fd in execute_command (p=0x55555881c802 "4", from_tty=1) at top.c:688
Therefore the second call to lookup_cmd () at line 697 fails to find
command because the original command string is gone.
This commit addresses this particular problem by creating a *copy* of
original command string for the sole purpose of using it after command
execution to lookup the command again. It may not be the most efficient
way but it's safer given that command buffer is shared and overwritten
in hard-to-foresee situations.

Now, without the above commit reverted I don't believe that this

GDB's symtab_and_line lookup, we try to find a result for an address,
and return the wrong symtab and line-table. In
skip_prologue_using_sal we then walk the line table looking for an
appropriate entry, except we never find one, and GDB just keeps going,
wandering off the end of the array.
However, I think adding extra protection to prevent walking off the

the future then this should prevent a random crash.
Obviously, I have no reproducer for this, as I said, I don't think

the same results, so I've rewritten the test and think it is worth
adding this to upstream GDB.
The original patch was about about how we find the best symtab and
line table entry, and what to do when GDB can't find a good match.
The new test creates a CU with two functions, only one of which is
covered by the line table. With the above patch reverted GDB returns
an invalid address.
With the above patch reverted I did run the testsuite to see what
other tests might already be exercising this functionality, and I
found two tests:
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-step-out-of-function-no-stmt.exp
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-vendor-extended-opcode.exp
These are pretty similar, they either create minimal, or no line table
for one of the functions in the source file, and as a consequence GDB
returns an unexpected address at some point during the test.
However, both of those tests are really focused on other issues, so I
think this new test does add some value. Plus the new test is not
large, so it's not a huge cost to also run this new test.

gdb/breakpoint: use warning function instead of gdb_printf
Noticed that in breakpoint.c, in one place, we do this:
gdb_printf (_("warning: Error removing "
"breakpoint %d\n"),
old_loc->owner->number);
Instead of using the `warning` function. There are a number of
differences between using gdb_printf like this and calling `warning`,
the main one is probably that real warnings are sent to gdb_stderr,
while the above gdb_printf call will go to gdb_stdout.
In this commit I:
1. Change to call `warning`, we can drop the "warning: " prefix from
the string in breakpoint.c,
2. Update the warning text, I now start with a lower case 'e', which
I believe is the GDB style for warnings,
3. And I have included the address of the bp_location in the warning
messsage,
4. Finally, I update all the tests (2) that include this error

certain bogus uses of constants to no longer be warned about. Leverage
the md_optimize_expr() hook to adjust when to actually truncate

would be evaluated in 32 bits only when !BFD64) signals the need for
doing so. Plain constants (or ones merely subject to unary operators)
should remain un-truncated - they would be handled as bignums when
!BFD64, and hence are okay to permit.
To compensate
- slightly extend optimize_imm() (to be honest I never understood why
the code being added - or something similar - wasn't there in the
first place),
- adjust expectations of the disp-imm-32 testcase (there are now
warnings, as there should be for any code which won't build [warning-

- shifts, where only signedness of the left hand operand matters,
- comparisons, which - unlike unary '!' - produce signed results (they
deliver 0 or ~0, as opposed to '!', which yields 0 or 1),
- logical operators (yielding 0 or 1 and hence treated like unary '!').

gdb.fortran/lbound-ubound.exp: read expected lbound and ubound from function parameters (PR 30414)
gdb.fortran/lbound-ubound.exp reads the expected lbound and ubound
values by reading some output from the inferior. This is racy when
running on boards where the inferior I/O is on a separate TTY than
GDB's, such as native-gdbserver.
I sometimes see this behavior:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, do_test (lb=..., ub=...) at /home/jenkins/workspace/binutils-gdb_master_linuxbuild/platform/jammy-amd64/target_board/nati
ve-gdbserver/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.fortran/lbound-ubound.F90:45
45 print *, "" ! Test Breakpoint
(gdb) Remote debugging from host ::1, port 37496
Expected GDB Output:
LBOUND = (-8, -10)
UBOUND = (-1, -2)
APB: Run a test here
APB: Expected lbound '(-8, -10)'
APB: Expected ubound ''
What happened is that expect read the output from GDB before the output
from the inferior, triggering this gdb_test_multiple clause:
-re "$gdb_prompt $" {
set found_prompt true
if {$found_dealloc_breakpoint
|| ($expected_lbound != "" && $expected_ubound != "")} {
# We're done.
} else {
exp_continue
}
}
So it set found_prompt, but the gdb_test_multiple kept going because
found_dealloc_breakpoint is false (this is the flag indicating that the
test is finished) and we still don't have expected_lbound and
expected_ubound. Then, expect reads in the inferior I/O, triggering
this clause:
-re ".*LBOUND = (\[^\r\n\]+)\r\n" {
set expected_lbound $expect_out(1,string)
if {!$found_prompt} {
exp_continue
}
}
This sets expected_lbound, but since found_prompt is true, we don't do
exp_continue, and exit the gdb_test_multiple, without having an
expected_ubound.
Change the test to read the values from the lb and ub function
parameters instead. As far as I understand, this still exercises what
we want to test. These variables contain the return values of the
lbound and ubound functions as computed by the program. We'll use them
to check the return values of the lbound and ubound functions as
computed by GDB.

gdb/elfread.c: Add plt symbol check for _PROCEDURE_LINKAGE_TABLE_
In the current code, when execute the following test on LoongArch:
$ make check-gdb TESTS="gdb.base/gnu-ifunc.exp"
=== gdb Summary ===
# of expected passes 111
# of unexpected failures 62
According to IFUNC's working process [1]. first time the IFUNC function
is called, the dynamic linker will not simply fill the .got.plt entry
with the actual address of IFUNC symbol, it will call the IFUNC resolver
function and take the return address, uses it as the sym-bound address
and puts it in the .got.plt entry. Initial address in .got.plt entry is
not a real function addresss. Depending on the compiler implementation,
some different addresses will be filled in. Most architectures will use
a .plt entry address to fill in the corresponding .got.plt entry.
In gdb, elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_addr() will be called to return a real
IFUNC function addresss. First check to see if the real address for
the IFUNC symbol has been resolved by the following function:
elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_name (const char *name, CORE_ADDR *addr_p)
{
if (elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_cache (name, addr_p))
return true;
if (elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got (name, addr_p))
return true;
return false;
}
in elf_gnu_ifunc_resolve_by_got(), it gets the contents of the
.got.plt entry and determines if the contents is the correct address
by calling elf_gnu_ifunc_record_cache(). Based on the IFUNC working
principle analysis above, the address filled in the .got.plt entry is
not the actual target function address initially, it would be a .plt
entry address corresponding symbol like *@plt. In this case, gdb just
go back to execute the resolver function and puts the return address
in the .got.plt entry. After that, gdb can get a real ifun address via
.got.plt entry.
On LoongArch, initially, each address filled in the .got.plt entries
is the first .plt entry address. Some architectures such as LoongArch
define the symbol _PROCEDURE_LINKAGE_TABLE_ at the start of the .plt
section. This symbol is the first plt entry, so gdb needs to check
this symbol in elf_gnu_ifunc_record_cache().

the failure looks like this:
print /d ((int (*) (void *, size_t)) munmap) (

warning: Error removing breakpoint 0
$2 = 0
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/break-main-file-remove-fail.exp: cmdline: get integer valueof "((int (*) (void *, size_t)) munmap) (
16781312, 4096)"
On the mailing list it has been reported that this failure also
impacts arm, aarch64, and possibly ppc/ppc64 too.
The above commit changed get_integer_valueof so that no output is
expected between the command and the '$2 = 0' line. In this case the
'warning: Error removing breakpoint 0' output is causing the
get_integer_valueof call to fail.
The reason for this warning is that this test deliberately calls
munmap on a page of the inferior's code. The test is checking that
GDB can handle the situation where a s/w breakpoint can't be
removed (due to the page no longer being readable/writable).
The test that is supposed to trigger the warning is later in the test
script when we delete a breakpoint.
So why do some targets trigger the warning earlier during the inferior
call?
The impacted targets use AT_ENTRY_POINT as their strategy for handling
inferior calls, that is, the trampoline that calls the inferior
function is placed at the program's entry point, e.g. often the _start
label.
If this location happens to be on the same page as the page that the
test script unmaps then, when the inferior function call returns, GDB
will not be able to remove the temporary breakpoint that is inserted
to catch the inferior function call returning! As a result we end up
seeing the warning earlier than expected.
I did wonder if this means I should relax the pattern in
get_integer_valueof - just accept that there might be additional
output from GDB which we should ignore.
However, I don't think this the right way to go. With the change in
a68f7e984420 we are now stricter for GDB emitting additional,
unexpected, output, and I think that is a good thing.
So, I think, in this case, in order to handle the possible extra
output, we should implement something like get_integer_valueof
directly in the gdb.base/break-main-file-remove-fail.exp test script.
This local version will handle the possible warning output.
After this the test should pass again on the impacted targets.

gdb/python: extend the Python Disassembler API to allow for styling
This commit extends the Python Disassembler API to allow for styling
of the instructions.
Before this commit the Python Disassembler API allowed the user to do
two things:
- They could intercept instruction disassembly requests and return a
string of their choosing, this string then became the disassembled
instruction, or
- They could call builtin_disassemble, which would call back into
libopcode to perform the disassembly. As libopcode printed the
instruction GDB would collect these print requests and build a
string. This string was then returned from the builtin_disassemble
call, and the user could modify or extend this string as needed.
Neither of these approaches allowed for, or preserved, disassembler
styling, which is now available within libopcodes for many of the more
popular architectures GDB supports.
This commit aims to fill this gap. After this commit a user will be
able to do the following things:
- Implement a custom instruction disassembler entirely in Python
without calling back into libopcodes, the custom disassembler will
be able to return styling information such that GDB will display
the instruction fully styled. All of GDB's existing style
settings will affect how instructions coming from the Python
disassembler are displayed in the expected manner.
- Call builtin_disassemble and receive a result that represents how
libopcode would like the instruction styled. The user can then
adjust or extend the disassembled instruction before returning the
result to GDB. Again, the instruction will be styled as expected.
To achieve this I will add two new classes to GDB,
DisassemblerTextPart and DisassemblerAddressPart.
Within builtin_disassemble, instead of capturing the print calls from
libopcodes and building a single string, we will now create either a
text part or address part and store these parts in a vector.
The DisassemblerTextPart will capture a small piece of text along with
the associated style that should be used to display the text. This
corresponds to the disassembler calling
disassemble_info::fprintf_styled_func, or for disassemblers that don't
support styling disassemble_info::fprintf_func.
The DisassemblerAddressPart is used when libopcodes requests that an
address be printed, and takes care of printing the address and
associated symbol, this corresponds to the disassembler calling
disassemble_info::print_address_func.
These parts are then placed within the DisassemblerResult when
builtin_disassemble returns.
Alternatively, the user can directly create parts by calling two new
methods on the DisassembleInfo class: DisassembleInfo.text_part and
DisassembleInfo.address_part.
Having created these parts the user can then pass these parts when
initializing a new DisassemblerResult object.
Finally, when we return from Python to gdbpy_print_insn, one way or
another, the result being returned will have a list of parts. Back in
GDB's C++ code we walk the list of parts and call back into GDB's core
to display the disassembled instruction with the correct styling.
The new API lives in parallel with the old API. Any existing code
that creates a DisassemblerResult using a single string immediately
creates a single DisassemblerTextPart containing the entire
instruction and gives this part the default text style. This is also
what happens if the user calls builtin_disassemble for an architecture
that doesn't (yet) support libopcode styling.
This matches up with what happens when the Python API is not involved,
an architecture without disassembler styling support uses the old
libopcodes printing API (the API that doesn't pass style info), and
GDB just prints everything using the default text style.
The reason that parts are created by calling methods on
DisassembleInfo, rather than calling the class constructor directly,
is DisassemblerAddressPart. Ideally this part would only hold the
address which the part represents, but in order to support backwards
compatibility we need to be able to convert the
DisassemblerAddressPart into a string. To do that we need to call
GDB's internal print_address function, and to do that we need an
gdbarch.
What this means is that the DisassemblerAddressPart needs to take a
gdb.Architecture object at creation time. The only valid place a user
can pull this from is from the DisassembleInfo object, so having the
DisassembleInfo act as a factory ensures that the correct gdbarch is
passed over each time. I implemented both solutions (the one
presented here, and an alternative where parts could be constructed
directly), and this felt like the cleanest solution.

gdb/python: rework how the disassembler API reads the result object
This commit is a refactor ahead of the next change which will make
disassembler styling available through the Python API.
Unfortunately, in order to make the styling support available, I think
the easiest solution is to make a very small change to the existing
API.
The current API relies on returning a DisassemblerResult object to
represent each disassembled instruction. Currently GDB allows the
DisassemblerResult class to be sub-classed, which could mean that a
user tries to override the various attributes that exist on the
DisassemblerResult object.
This commit removes this ability, effectively making the
DisassemblerResult class final.
Though this is a change to the existing API, I'm hoping this isn't
going to cause too many issues:
- The Python disassembler API was only added in the previous release
of GDB, so I don't expect it to be widely used yet, and
- It's not clear to me why a user would need to sub-class the
DisassemblerResult type, I allowed it in the original patch
because at the time I couldn't see any reason to NOT allow it.
Having prevented sub-classing I can now rework the tail end of the
gdbpy_print_insn function; instead of pulling the results out of the
DisassemblerResult object by calling back into Python, I now cast the
Python object back to its C++ type (disasm_result_object), and access
the fields directly from there. In later commits I will be reworking
the disasm_result_object type in order to hold information about the
styled disassembler output.
The tests that dealt with sub-classing DisassemblerResult have been
removed, and a new test that confirms that DisassemblerResult can't be
sub-classed has been added.

gdb/testsuite: special case '^' in gdb_test pattern
Added some special handling of '^' to gdb_test -- a leading '^' will
cause the command regexp to automatically be included in the expected
output pattern.
It was pointed out that the '-wrap' flag of gdb_test_multiple is
supposed to work in the same way as gdb_test, and that the recent
changes for '^' had not been replicated for gdb_test_multiple. This
patch addresses this issue.
So, after this commit, the following two constructs should have the
same meaning:
gdb_test "command" "^output" "test name"
gdb_test_multiple "command" "test name" {
-re -wrap "^output" {
pass $gdb_test_name
}
}
In both cases the '^' will case gdb.exp to inject a regexp that
matches 'command' after the '^' and before the 'output', this is in
addition to adding the $gdb_prompt pattern after 'output' in the
normal way.
The special '^' handling is only applied when '-wrap' is used, as this
is the only mode that aims to mimic gdb_test.
While working on this patch I realised that I could actually improve
the logic for the special '^' handling in the case where the expected
output pattern is empty. I replicated these updates for both gdb_test
and gdb_test_multiple in order to keep these two paths in sync.
There were a small number of tests that needed adjustment after this
change, mostly just removing command regexps that are now added
automatically, but the gdb.base/settings.exp case was a little weird
as it turns out trying to match a single blank line is probably harder
now than it used to be -- still, I suspect this is a pretty rare case,
so I think the benefits (improved anchoring) outweigh this small
downside (IMHO).

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/opt-out-not-implptr.exp: print noptr
...
The problem happens when evaluating this dwarf expression:
...
<45> DW_AT_location : 13 byte block: 10 86 ea d7 d0 96 8e cf 92 5c 9f 93 8 \
(DW_OP_constu:
6639779683436459270; DW_OP_stack_value; DW_OP_piece: 8)
...
The DW_OP_constu pushes a value with "generic type" on to the DWARF stack, and
the "generic type" has the size of an address on the target machine, which for
target board unix/-m32 is 4 bytes. Consequently, the constant is abbreviated.
Next, the DW_OP_piece declares that the resulting 4-byte value is 8 bytes
large, and we hit this clause in rw_pieced_value:
...
/* Use zeroes if piece reaches beyond stack value. */
if (p->offset + p->size > stack_value_size_bits)
break;
...
and consequently get a zero.
We could just add require is_target_64 to the test-case, but instead, add a
32-bit case and require is_target_64 just for the 64-bit case.

[gdb/testsuite] Make is_64_target more robust
I ran test-case gdb.dwarf2/opt-out-not-implptr.exp with make-check-all.sh, and
with target board dwarf64 ran into:
...
FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/opt-out-not-implptr.exp: print noptr
...
due to is_target_64 failing because of:
...
builtin_spawn -ignore SIGHUP gcc -fno-stack-protector \
-fdiagnostics-color=never -w -c -gdwarf64 -g -o is_64_target.o \
is_64_target.c^M
gcc: error: '-gdwarf64' is ambiguous; use '-gdwarf-64' for DWARF version or \
'-gdwarf -g64' for debug level^M
compiler exited with status 1
...
The FAIL is the same FAIL I run into with target board unix/-m32: is_target_64
fails for both cases.
The reason that is_target_64 is failing for target board dwarf64, is because
of using system compiler 7.5.0 which doesn't support -gdwarf64.
Fix this by making is_target_64 use nodebug instead of debug for compilation.
