As reported in PR 19998, after type ctrl-c, GDB hang there and does not send interrupt. It causes a fail in gdb.base/interrupt.exp. All targets support remote fileio should be affected. When we type ctrc-c, SIGINT is handled by remote_fileio_sig_set, as shown below, #0 remote_fileio_sig_set (sigint_func=0x4495d0 <remote_fileio_ctrl_c_signal_handler(int)>) at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/remote-fileio.c:325 #1 0x00000000004495de in remote_fileio_ctrl_c_signal_handler (signo=<optimised out>) at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/remote-fileio.c:349 #2 <signal handler called> #3 0x00007ffff647ed83 in __select_nocancel () at ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:81 #4 0x00000000005530ce in interruptible_select (n=10, readfds=readfds@entry=0x7fffffffd730, writefds=writefds@entry=0x0, exceptfds=exceptfds@entry=0x0, timeout=timeout@entry=0x0) at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/event-top.c:1017 #5 0x000000000061ab20 in stdio_file_read (file=<optimised out>, buf=0x12d02e0 "\n\022-\001", length_buf=16383) at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/ui-file.c:577 #6 0x000000000044a4dc in remote_fileio_func_read (buf=0x12c0360 "") at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/remote-fileio.c:583 #7 0x0000000000449598 in do_remote_fileio_request (uiout=<optimised out>, buf_arg=buf_arg@entry=0x12c0340) at /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/remote-fileio.c:1179 we don't set quit_serial_event, do { res = gdb_select (n, readfds, writefds, exceptfds, timeout); } while (res == -1 && errno == EINTR); if (res == 1 && FD_ISSET (fd, readfds)) { errno = EINTR; return -1; } return res; we can't go out of the loop above, and that is why GDB can't send interrupt. Recently, we stop throwing exception from SIGINT handler (remote_fileio_ctrl_c_signal_handler) https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00372.html, which is correct, because gdb_select is interruptible. However, in the same patch series, we add interruptible_select later as a wrapper to gdb_select, https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00375.html and it is not interruptible (because of the loop in it) unless select/poll-able file descriptors are marked. This fix in this patch is to call quit_serial_event_set, so that we can go out of the loop above, return -1 and set errno to EINTR. 2016-06-01 Yao Qi <[email protected]> PR remote/19998 * remote-fileio.c (remote_fileio_ctrl_c_signal_handler): Call quit_serial_event_set.

Most of the time, the trace should be in one piece. This case is handled fine
by GDB. In some cases, however, there may be gaps in the trace. They result
from trace decode errors or from overflows.
A gap in the trace means we lost an unknown amount of trace. Gaps can be very
small, such as a few instructions in the same function, or they can be rather
big. We may, for example, lose a few function calls or returns. The trace may
continue in a different function and we likely don't know how we got there.
Even though we can't say how the program executed across a gap, higher levels
may not be impacted too much by it. Let's assume we have functions a-e and a
trace that looks roughly like this:
a
\
b b
\ /
c <gap> c
/
d d
\ /
e
Even though we can't say for sure, it is likely that b and c are the same
function instance before and after the gap. This patch is trying to connect
the c and b function segments across the gap.
This will add a to the back trace of b on the right hand side. The changes are
reflected in GDB's internal representation of the trace and will improve:
- the output of "record function-call-history /c"
- the output of "backtrace" in replay mode
- source stepping in replay mode
will be improved indirectly via the improved back trace
I don't have an automated test for this patch; decode errors will be fixed and
overflows occur sporadically and are quite rare. I tested it by hacking GDB to
provoke a decode error and on the expected gap in the gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp
test.
The issue is that we can't predict where we will be able to re-sync in case of
errors. For the expected decode error in gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp, for example, we
may be able to re-sync somewhere in dlclose, in test, in main, or not at all.
Here's one example run of gdb.btrace/dlopen.exp with and without this patch.

It worked nicely in this case but it may, of course, also lead to weird

It works best when the gap is small and the trace pieces are long.

… frame
This patch ensures that the frame id for the current frame is stashed
before that of the previous frame (to the current frame).
First, it should be noted that the frame id for the current frame is
not stashed by get_current_frame(). The current frame's frame id is
lazily computed and stashed via calls to get_frame_id(). However,
it's possible for get_prev_frame() to be called without first stashing
the current frame.
The frame stash is used not only to speed up frame lookups, but
also to detect cycles. When attempting to compute the frame id
for a "previous" frame (in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle), a cycle
is detected if the computed frame id is already in the stash.
If it should happen that a previous frame id is stashed which should
represent a cycle for the current frame, then an assertion failure
will trigger should get_frame_id() be later called to determine
the frame id for the current frame.
As of late 2016, with the "Tweak meaning of VALUE_FRAME_ID" patch in
place, this actually occurs when running the
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dup-frame.exp test. While attempting to generate a
backtrace, the python frame filter code is invoked, leading to
frame_info_to_frame_object() (in python/py-frame.c) being called.
That function will potentially call get_prev_frame() before
get_frame_id() is called. The call to get_prev_frame() can eventually
end up in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle() which, in turn, calls
compute_frame_id(), after which the frame id is stashed for the
previous frame.
If the frame id for the current frame is stashed, the cycle detection
code (which relies on the frame stash) in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle()
will be triggered for a cycle starting with the current frame. If the
current frame's id is not stashed, the cycle detecting code can't
operate as designed. Instead, when get_frame_id() is called on the
current frame at some later point, the current frame's id will found
to be already in the stash, triggering an assertion failure.
Below is an in depth examination of the failure which lead to this change.
I've shortened pathnames for brevity and readability.
Here's the portion of the log file showing the failure/internal error:

at gdb/stack.c:1834
Examination of the code in frame_info_to_frame_object(), which is in
python/py-frame.c, is key to understanding this problem:
if (get_prev_frame (frame) == NULL
&& get_frame_unwind_stop_reason (frame) != UNWIND_NO_REASON
&& get_next_frame (frame) != NULL)
{
frame_obj->frame_id = get_frame_id (get_next_frame (frame));
frame_obj->frame_id_is_next = 1;
}
else
{
frame_obj->frame_id = get_frame_id (frame);
frame_obj->frame_id_is_next = 0;
}
I will first note that the frame id for frame has not been computed yet. (This
was verified by placing a breakpoint on compute_frame_id().)
The call to get_prev_frame() causes the the frame id to (eventually) be
computed for the previous frame. Here's a backtrace showing how we
get there:
#0 compute_frame_id (fi=0x10e2810)
at gdb/frame.c:496
#1 0x0000000000724a67 in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle (this_frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:1871
#2 0x0000000000725136 in get_prev_frame_always_1 (this_frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:2045
#3 0x000000000072516b in get_prev_frame_always (this_frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:2061
#4 0x000000000072570f in get_prev_frame (this_frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:2303
#5 0x00000000004eb471 in frame_info_to_frame_object (frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/python/py-frame.c:381
For this particular case, we end up in the else clause of the code above
which calls get_frame_id (frame). It's at this point that the frame id
for frame is computed. Again, here's a backtrace:
#0 compute_frame_id (fi=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:496
#1 0x000000000072203d in get_frame_id (fi=0xe5a760)
at gdb/frame.c:539
#2 0x00000000004eb50d in frame_info_to_frame_object (frame=0xe5a760)
at gdb/python/py-frame.c:390
The test in question, dw2-dup-frame.exp, deliberately creates a broken
(cyclic) stack. So, in this instance, the frame id for the prev
`frame' will be the same as that for `frame'. But that particular
frame id ended up in the stash during the previous frame operation.
When, just a few lines later, we compute the frame id for `frame', the
id in question is already in the stash, thus triggering the assertion
failure.
I considered two other solutions to solving this problem:
We could prevent get_prev_frame() from being called before
get_frame_id() in frame_info_to_frame_object(). (See above for the
snippet of code where this happens.) A call to get_frame_id (frame)
could be placed ahead of that code snippet above. I have tested this
approach and, while it does work, I can't be certain that
get_prev_frame() isn't called ahead of stashing the current frame
somewhere else in GDB, but in a less obvious way.
Another approach is to stash the current frame's id by calling
get_frame_id() in get_current_frame(). This approach is conceptually
simpler, but when importing a python unwinder, has the unwelcome side
effect of causing the unwinder to be called during import.
A cleaner looking fix would be to place this code after code
corresponding to the "Don't compute the frame id of the current frame
yet..." comment in get_prev_frame_if_no_cycle(). Sadly, this does not
work though; by the time we get to this point, the frame state for the
prev frame has been modified just enough to cause an internal error to
occur when attempting to compute the (current) frame id for inline
frames. (The unexpected failure count increases by roughly 130
failures.) Therefore, I decided to place it as early as possible
in get_prev_frame().
gdb/ChangeLog:
* frame.c (get_prev_frame): Stash frame id for current frame
prior to computing frame id for previous frame.

…binations This adds a test that exposes several problems fixed by earlier patches: #1 - Buffer overrun when host/target formats match, but sizes don't. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00125.html #2 - Missing handling for FR-V FR300. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00117.html #3 - BFD architectures with spaces in their names (v850). https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-03/msg00108.html #4 - The OS ABI names with spaces issue. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00116.html #5 - Bogus HP/PA long double format. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00122.html #6 - Cris big endian internal error. https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-03/msg00126.html #7 - Several PowerPC bfd archs/machines not handled by gdb. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19797 And hopefully helps catch others in the future. This started out as a test that simply did, gdb -ex "print 1.0L" to exercise #1 above. Then to cover both 32-bit target / 64-bit host and the converse, I thought of having the testcase print the floats twice, once with the architecture set to "i386" and then to "i386:x86-64". This way it wouldn't matter whether gdb was built as 32-bit or a 64-bit program. Then I thought that other archs might have similar host/target floatformat conversion issues as well. Instead of hardcoding some architectures in the test file, I thought we could just iterate over all bfd architectures and OS ABIs supported by the gdb build being tested. This is what then exposed all the other problems listed above... With an --enable-targets=all, this exercises over 14 thousand combinations. If left in a single test file, it all consistenly runs in under a minute on my machine (An Intel i7-4810MQ @ 2.8 MHZ running Fedora 23). Split in 8 chunks, as in this commit, it runs in around 25 seconds, with make -j8. To avoid flooding the gdb.sum file, it avoids calling "pass" on each tested combination/iteration. I'm explicitly not implementing that by passing an empty message to gdb_test / gdb_test_multiple, because I still want a FAIL to be logged in gdb.sum. So instead this puts the internal passes in the gdb.log file, only, prefixed "IPASS:", for internal pass. TBC, if some iteration fails, it'll still show up as FAIL in gdb.sum. If this is an approach that takes on, I can see us extending the common bits to support it for all testcases. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2016-12-09 Pedro Alves <[email protected]> * gdb.base/all-architectures-0.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-1.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-2.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-3.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-4.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-5.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-6.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures-7.exp: New file. * gdb.base/all-architectures.exp.in: New file.

Nowadays, GDB propagates C++ exceptions across readline using setjmp/longjmp 8952576 ("Propagate GDB/C++ exceptions across readline using sj/lj-based TRY/CATCH") because DWARF-based unwinding can't cross C functions compiled without -fexceptions (see details from the commit above). Unfortunately, toolchains that use SjLj-based C++ exceptions got broken with that fix, because _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister, which is put at the exit of a function, is not executed due to the longjmp added by that commit.

New in v2: - Define PyMem_RawMalloc as PyMem_Malloc for Python < 3.4 and use PyMem_RawMalloc in the code. Since Python 3.4, the callback installed in PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer should return a value allocated with PyMem_RawMalloc instead of PyMem_Malloc. The reason is that PyMem_Malloc must be called with the Python Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) held, which is not the case in the context where this function is called. PyMem_RawMalloc was introduced for cases like this. In Python 3.6, it looks like they added an assert to verify that PyMem_Malloc was not called without the GIL. The consequence is that typing anything in the python-interactive mode of gdb crashes the process. The same behavior was observed with the official package on Arch Linux as well as with a manual Python build on Ubuntu 14.04. This is what is shown with a debug build of Python 3.6 (the error with a non-debug build is far less clear): (gdb) pi >>> print(1) Fatal Python error: Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL Current thread 0x00007f1459af8780 (most recent call first): [1] 21326 abort ./gdb and the backtrace: #0 0x00007ffff618bc37 in raise () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff618f028 in abort () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #2 0x00007ffff6b104d6 in Py_FatalError (msg=msg@entry=0x7ffff6ba15b8 "Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL") at Python/pylifecycle.c:1457 #3 0x00007ffff6a37a68 in _PyMem_DebugCheckGIL () at Objects/obmalloc.c:1972 #4 0x00007ffff6a3804e in _PyMem_DebugFree (ctx=0x7ffff6e65290 <_PyMem_Debug+48>, ptr=0x24f8830) at Objects/obmalloc.c:1994 #5 0x00007ffff6a38e1d in PyMem_Free (ptr=<optimized out>) at Objects/obmalloc.c:442 #6 0x00007ffff6b866c6 in _PyFaulthandler_Fini () at ./Modules/faulthandler.c:1369 #7 0x00007ffff6b104bd in Py_FatalError (msg=msg@entry=0x7ffff6ba15b8 "Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL") at Python/pylifecycle.c:1431 #8 0x00007ffff6a37a68 in _PyMem_DebugCheckGIL () at Objects/obmalloc.c:1972 #9 0x00007ffff6a37aa3 in _PyMem_DebugMalloc (ctx=0x7ffff6e65290 <_PyMem_Debug+48>, nbytes=5) at Objects/obmalloc.c:1980 #10 0x00007ffff6a38d91 in PyMem_Malloc (size=<optimized out>) at Objects/obmalloc.c:418 #11 0x000000000064dbe2 in gdbpy_readline_wrapper (sys_stdin=0x7ffff6514640 <_IO_2_1_stdin_>, sys_stdout=0x7ffff6514400 <_IO_2_1_stdout_>, prompt=0x7ffff4d4f7d0 ">>> ") at /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/python/py-gdb-readline.c:75 The documentation is very clear about it [1] and it was also mentioned in the "What's New In Python 3.4" page [2].

When the gdbpy_ref objects get destroyed, they call Py_DECREF to decrement the reference counter of the python object they hold a reference to. Any time we call into the Python API, we should be holding the GIL. The gdbpy_enter object does that for us in an RAII-fashion. However, if gdbpy_enter is declared after a gdbpy_ref object in a function, gdbpy_enter's destructor will be called (and the GIL will be released) before gdbpy_ref's destructor is called. Therefore, we will end up calling Py_DECREF without holding the GIL. This became obvious with Python 3.6, where memory management functions have asserts to make sure that the GIL is held. This was exposed by tests py-as-string.exp, py-function.exp and py-xmethods. For example: (gdb) p $_as_string(enum_valid) Fatal Python error: Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL Current thread 0x00007f7f7b21c780 (most recent call first): [1] 18678 abort (core dumped) ./gdb -nx testsuite/outputs/gdb.python/py-as-string/py-as-string #0 0x00007ffff618bc37 in raise () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff618f028 in abort () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #2 0x00007ffff6b104d6 in Py_FatalError (msg=msg@entry=0x7ffff6ba15b8 "Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL") at Python/pylifecycle.c:1457 #3 0x00007ffff6a37a68 in _PyMem_DebugCheckGIL () at Objects/obmalloc.c:1972 #4 0x00007ffff6a3804e in _PyMem_DebugFree (ctx=0x7ffff6e65290 <_PyMem_Debug+48>, ptr=0x24f8830) at Objects/obmalloc.c:1994 #5 0x00007ffff6a38e1d in PyMem_Free (ptr=<optimized out>) at Objects/obmalloc.c:442 #6 0x00007ffff6b866c6 in _PyFaulthandler_Fini () at ./Modules/faulthandler.c:1369 #7 0x00007ffff6b104bd in Py_FatalError (msg=msg@entry=0x7ffff6ba15b8 "Python memory allocator called without holding the GIL") at Python/pylifecycle.c:1431 #8 0x00007ffff6a37a68 in _PyMem_DebugCheckGIL () at Objects/obmalloc.c:1972 #9 0x00007ffff6a3804e in _PyMem_DebugFree (ctx=0x7ffff6e652c0 <_PyMem_Debug+96>, ptr=0x7ffff46b6040) at Objects/obmalloc.c:1994 #10 0x00007ffff6a38f55 in PyObject_Free (ptr=<optimized out>) at Objects/obmalloc.c:503 #11 0x00007ffff6a5f27e in unicode_dealloc (unicode=unicode@entry=0x7ffff46b6040) at Objects/unicodeobject.c:1794 #12 0x00007ffff6a352a9 in _Py_Dealloc (op=0x7ffff46b6040) at Objects/object.c:1786 #13 0x000000000063f28b in gdb_Py_DECREF (op=0x7ffff46b6040) at /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/python/python-internal.h:192 #14 0x000000000063fa33 in gdbpy_ref_policy::decref (ptr=0x7ffff46b6040) at /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/python/py-ref.h:35 #15 0x000000000063fa77 in gdb::ref_ptr<_object, gdbpy_ref_policy>::~ref_ptr (this=0x7fffffffcdf0, __in_chrg=<optimized out>) at /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/common/gdb_ref_ptr.h:91 #16 0x000000000064d8b8 in fnpy_call (gdbarch=0x2b50010, language=0x115d2c0 <c_language_defn>, cookie=0x7ffff46b7468, argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffcf48) at /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/python/py-function.c:145 The fix is to place the gdbpy_enter first in the function.

because varstring is an empty string and strlen () is 0, so "strlen () - 1"
is definitely out of the bound of "varstring",

(htab_remove_elt shouldn't really crash in this case, but that's secondary.) The real problem is that early_data passed to tdesc_use_registers includes regs from a target description that is not the target_desc, which violates its assumptions. The registers in question are the fs_base/gs_base registers, added by amd64_init_abi: tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments, AMD64_FSBASE_REGNUM, "fs_base"); tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments, AMD64_GSBASE_REGNUM, "gs_base"); and that happens because amd64_linux_init_abi uses amd64_init_abi as helper, but they don't coordinate on which fallback tdesc to use. amd64_init_abi does: if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc)) tdesc = tdesc_amd64; and then adds the fs_base/gs_base registers of the "tdesc_amd64" tdesc to the tdesc_arch_data. After amd64_init_abi returns, amd64_linux_init_abi does: if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc)) tdesc = tdesc_amd64_linux; tdep->tdesc = tdesc; and we end up tdesc_amd64_linux installed in tdep->tdesc. The fix is to make sure that amd64_linux_init_abi and amd64_init_abi agree on default tdesc, by adding a "default tdesc" parameter to amd64_init_abi, instead of having amd64_init_abi hardcode a default. With this, amd64_init_abi creates the fs_base/gs_base registers using the tdesc_amd64_linux tdesc. Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux, -m64. I don't have an x32 setup handy.

…ior yet
A following patch will change the default target_thread_architecture
method, like this:
struct gdbarch *
default_thread_architecture (struct target_ops *ops, ptid_t ptid)
{
- return target_gdbarch ();
+ inferior *inf = find_inferior_ptid (ptid);
+ gdb_assert (inf != NULL);
+ return inf->gdbarch;
}
This is because target_gdbarch is really just
current_inferior()->gdbarch, and it's wrong to return that
architecture when the inferior of the passed in PTID is NOT the
current inferior -- the inferior for PTID may be running a different
architecture. E.g., a mix of 64-bit and 32-bit inferiors in the same
debug session.
Doing that change above however exposes a problem in "maint print
registers", caught be the testsuite:
-PASS: gdb.base/maint.exp: maint print registers

I.e., the test does "maint print registers" while the inferior is not
running yet. This is expected to work, and there's already a hack in
get_thread_arch_regcache to make it work.
Instead of pilling on hacks in the internal of regcache and
target_ops, this commit moves the null_ptid special casing to where it
belongs -- higher up in the call chain in the implementation of "maint
print registers" & co directly.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-10-04 Pedro Alves <[email protected]>
* regcache.c (get_thread_arch_regcache): Remove null_ptid special
case.
(regcache_print): Handle !target_has_registers here instead.

If you have a breakpoint command that re-resumes the target, like:
break foo
commands
> c
> end
and then let the inferior run, hitting the breakpoint, and then press
Ctrl-C at just the right time, between GDB processing the stop at
"foo", and re-resuming the target, you'll hit the QUIT call in
infrun.c:resume.
With this hack, we can reproduce the bad case consistently:

and when that happens, you end up with GDB's run control in quite a
messed up state. Something like this:
thread_function1 (arg=0x1) at threads.c:107
107 usleep (SLEEP); /* Loop increment. */
Quit
(gdb) c
Continuing.
** nothing happens, time passes..., press ctrl-c again **
^CQuit

Id Target Id Frame
1 Thread 1462.1462 "threads" (running)
* 2 Thread 1462.1466 "threads" (running)
3 Thread 1462.1465 "function0" (running)
(gdb) c
Cannot execute this command while the selected thread is running.
(gdb)
The first "Quit" above is thrown from within "resume", and cancels run
control while GDB is in the middle of stepping over a breakpoint.
with step_over_info_valid_p() true. The next "c" didn't actually
resume anything, because GDB throught that the step-over was still in
progress. It wasn't, because the thread that was supposed to be
stepping over the breakpoint wasn't actually resumed.
So at this point, we press Ctrl-C again, and this time, the default
quit handler is called directly from the event loop
(event-top.c:default_quit_handler -> quit()), because gdb was left
owning the terminal (because the previous resume was cancelled before
we reach target_resume -> target_terminal::inferior()).
Note that the exception called from within resume ends up calling
normal_stop via resume_cleanups. That's very borked though, because
normal_stop is going to re-handle whatever was the last reported
event, possibly even re-running a hook stop... I think that the only
sane way to safely cancel the run control state machinery is to push
an event via handle_inferior_event like all other events.
The fix here does two things, and either alone would fix the problem
at hand:
#1 - passes the terminal to the inferior earlier, so that any QUIT
call from the point we declare the target as running goes to the
inferior directly, protecting run control from unsafe QUIT calls.
#2 - gets rid of this QUIT call in resume and of its related unsafe
resume_cleanups.
Aboout #2, the comment describing resume says:
/* Resume the inferior, but allow a QUIT. This is useful if the user
wants to interrupt some lengthy single-stepping operation
(for child processes, the SIGINT goes to the inferior, and so
we get a SIGINT random_signal, but for remote debugging and perhaps
other targets, that's not true).
but that's a really old comment that predates a lot of fixes to Ctrl-C
handling throughout both GDB core and the remote target, that made
sure that a Ctrl-C isn't ever lost. In any case, if some target
depended on this, a much better fix would be to make the target return
a SIGINT stop out of target_wait the next time that is called.
This was exposed by the new gdb.base/bp-cmds-continue-ctrl-c.exp
testcase added later in the series.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-11-16 Pedro Alves <[email protected]>
* infrun.c (resume_cleanups): Delete.
(resume): No longer install a resume_cleanups cleanup nor call

cleanup.

Target descriptions are allocated lazily, that is fine in GDBserver, but it is not safe to call malloc in gdb_collect in IPA, because we can set a fast tracepoint in malloc, and when the tracepoint is hit, gdb_collect/malloc is called, deadlock or memory corruption may be triggered. #0 0xf7cfc200 in malloc () #1 0xf7efdc07 in operator new(unsigned int) () #2 0xf7ef7636 in allocate_target_description() () #3 0xf7efcbe1 in i386_create_target_description(unsigned long long, bool) () #4 0xf7efb474 in i386_linux_read_description(unsigned long long) () #5 0xf7efb190 in get_ipa_tdesc(int) () #6 0xf7ef9baa in gdb_collect () The fix is to initialize all target descriptions earlier, when the IPA is loaded.

See `help thread'. ^^^^^^^^^^^ (gdb) Note, thread _2_. There's really only one thread in the inferior (it's still at the entry point), but still GDB added a bogus second thread.

I hacked out --once, and "monitor exit" to be able to test. The results are a bit too unstable to tell accurately, but it looked like there were no regressions.

There's actually a series of three issues reported, but it turns out
they're all related, so we can consider on the first one.
The invalid read is triggered from a destructor which is being invoked
as part of a stack unwind after throwing an error. At the time the

The problem is that in `process_die` (frames 14 and 16) we create a
`process_die_scope` object, that takes a copy of the `struct
dwarf2_cu *` passed into the frame. The destructor of the
`process_die_scope` dereferences the stored pointer. This wouldn't be
an issue, except...
... in dw2_do_instantiate_symtab (frame 19) a clean up was registered that
clears the dwarf2_queue in case of an error. Part of this clean up
involves deleting the `struct dwarf2_cu`s referenced from the queue..
The problem then, is that cleanups are processed at the site of the
throw, while, class destructors are invoked as we unwind their frame.
The result is that we process the frame 19 cleanup (and delete the
struct dwarf2_cu) before we process the destructors in frames 14 and 16.
When we do get back to frames 14 and 16 the objects being references
have already been deleted.
The solution is to remove the cleanup from dw2_do_instantiate_symtab, and
instead use a destructor to release the dwarf2_queue instead. With this
patch in place, the valgrind errors are now resolved.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_release_queue): Delete function, move body
into...
(class dwarf2_queue_guard): ...the destructor of this new class.
(dw2_do_instantiate_symtab): Create instance of the new class
dwarf2_queue_guard, remove cleanup.

A future patch will propose making the remote target's target_ops be heap-allocated (to make it possible to have multiple instances of remote targets, for multiple simultaneous connections), and will delete/destroy the remote target at target_close time. That change trips on a latent problem, though. File I/O handles remain open even after the target is gone, with a dangling pointer to a target that no longer exists. This results in GDB crashing when it calls the target_ops backend associated with the file handle: (gdb) Disconnect Ending remote debugging. * GDB crashes deferencing a dangling pointer Backtrace: #0 0x00007f79338570a0 in main_arena () at /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x0000000000858bfe in target_fileio_close(int, int*) (fd=1, target_errno=0x7ffe0499a4c8) at src/gdb/target.c:2980 #2 0x00000000007088bd in gdb_bfd_iovec_fileio_close(bfd*, void*) (abfd=0x1a631b0, stream=0x223c9d0) at src/gdb/gdb_bfd.c:353 #3 0x0000000000930906 in opncls_bclose (abfd=0x1a631b0) at src/bfd/opncls.c:528 #4 0x0000000000930cf9 in bfd_close_all_done (abfd=0x1a631b0) at src/bfd/opncls.c:768 #5 0x0000000000930cb3 in bfd_close (abfd=0x1a631b0) at src/bfd/opncls.c:735 #6 0x0000000000708dc5 in gdb_bfd_close_or_warn(bfd*) (abfd=0x1a631b0) at src/gdb/gdb_bfd.c:511 #7 0x00000000007091a2 in gdb_bfd_unref(bfd*) (abfd=0x1a631b0) at src/gdb/gdb_bfd.c:615 #8 0x000000000079ed8e in objfile::~objfile() (this=0x2154730, __in_chrg=<optimized out>) at src/gdb/objfiles.c:682 #9 0x000000000079fd1a in objfile_purge_solibs() () at src/gdb/objfiles.c:1065 #10 0x00000000008162ca in no_shared_libraries(char const*, int) (ignored=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/solib.c:1251 #11 0x000000000073b89b in disconnect_command(char const*, int) (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at src/gdb/infcmd.c:3035 This goes unnoticed in current master, because the current remote target's target_ops is never destroyed nowadays, so we end up calling: remote_hostio_close -> remote_hostio_send_command which gracefully fails with FILEIO_ENOSYS if remote_desc is NULL (because the target is closed). Fix this by invalidating a target's file I/O handles when the target is closed. With this change, remote_hostio_send_command no longer needs to handle the case of being called with a closed remote target, originally added here: <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00359.html>. gdb/ChangeLog: 2018-04-11 Pedro Alves <[email protected]> * target.c (fileio_fh_t::t): Add comment.

The problem is that when we get to frame #3/#4, we lost all references to the thread that is being marked as running. create_continue_event_object assumes that it is the current thread, which is not true in this case. Fix this by passing down the right thread in create_continue_event_object.

The problem originally fixed by bf93d7b was: (...) we should avoid doing register reads after a process does an exec and before we've updated that inferior's gdbarch. Otherwise, we may interpret the registers using the wrong architecture. (...) The call to "add_thread" done just after adding the inferior is problematic, because it ends up reading the registers (because the ptid is re-used, we end up doing a switch_to_thread to it, which tries to update stop_pc). (...) The register-reading issue is no longer a problem nowadays, ever since switch_to_thread stopped reading the stop_pc in git commit f2ffa92 ("gdb: Eliminate the 'stop_pc' global"). So this commit basically reverts bf93d7b. gdb/ChangeLog: 2018-11-22 Pedro Alves <[email protected]> * infrun.c (follow_exec) <set follow-exec new>: Add thread and switch to it before calling into try_open_exec_file.

Errors that happen in nested sourced files (when a sourced file sources
another file) lead to a wrong error message, or use-after-free.
For example, if I put this in "a.gdb":
command_that_doesnt_exist
and this in "b.gdb":
source a.gdb
and try to "source b.gdb" in GDB, the result may look like this:
(gdb) source b.gdb
b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
_that_doesnt_exist:1: Error in sourced command file:
Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist". Try "help".
Notice the wrong file name where "a.gdb" should be. The exact result
may differ, depending on the feelings of the memory allocator.
What happens is:
- The "source a.gdb" command is saved by command_line_append_input_line
in command_line_input's static buffer.
- Since we are sourcing a file, the script_from_file function stores the
script name (a.gdb) in the source_file_name global. However, it doesn't
do a copy, it just saves a pointer to command_line_input's static buffer.
- The "command_that_doesnt_exist" command is saved by
command_line_append_input_line in command_line_input's static buffer.
Depending on what xrealloc does, source_file_name may now point to
freed memory, or at the minimum the data it was pointing to was
overwritten.
- When the error is handled in script_from_file, we dererence
source_file_name to print the name of the file in which the error
occured.
To fix it, I made source_file_name an std::string, so that keeps a copy of
the file name instead of pointing to a buffer with a too small
lifetime.
With this patch, the expected filename is printed, and no use-after-free
occurs:
(gdb) source b.gdb
b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
a.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist". Try "help".
I passed explicit template parameters to make_scoped_restore
(<std::string, const std::string &>), so that the second parameter is
passed by reference and avoid a copy.
It was not as obvious as I first thought to change gdb.base/source.exp
to test this, because source commands inside sourced files are
interpreted relative to GDB's current working directory, not the
directory of the currently sourced file. As a workaround, I moved the
snippet that tests errors after the snippet that adds the source
directory to the search path. This way, the "source source-error-1.gdb"
line in source-error.exp manages to find the file.
For reference, here is what ASAN reports when use-after-free occurs:
(gdb) source b.gdb

Commit ab42892 ("Fix vertical scrolling of TUI source window") introduced a use-after-free in source_cache::get_source_lines. At the beginning of the method, we get the fullname of the symtab: const char *fullname = symtab_to_fullname (s); fullname points to the string owned by the symtab (s.fullname). When we later do scoped_fd desc = open_source_file (s); s.fullname gets reallocated (even though the string contents may not change). The fullname local variable now points to freed memory. To avoid it, refresh the value of fullname after calling open_source_file. Here is the ASan report: $ ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory ./a.out (gdb) start Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x1130: file test.cpp, line 12.

…trace
The test gdb.threads/watchthreads-reorder.exp verifies that the
'set debug infrun 1' debug output does not crash GDB.
Under high load, the test can still cause a GDB internal error (see details
below).
This patch fixes this crash, and improves/factorises some wait kind traces.
Tested on debian/amd64 + run one test with 'set debug infrun 1'.
Changes compared to the first version:
* Handles the suggestions of Kevin to trace the relevant elements
of the wait status (this is done by calling target_waitstatus_to_string).
* Some other changes to factorise wait status tracing.
Note that using target_waitstatus_to_string instead of the 'locally printed'
status kind strings means that debug trace that was using strings such as:
"EXITED" or "TARGET_WAITKIND_EXITED"
will now use what is printed by target_waitstatus_to_string e.g.
"exited".
gdb/ChangeLog
2019-04-01 Philippe Waroquiers <[email protected]>
* infrun.c (stop_all_threads): If debug_infrun, always
trace the wait status after wait_one, using
target_waitstatus_to_string and target_pid_to_str.
(handle_inferior_event): Replace various trace of
wait status kind by a single trace.
* gdb/gnu-nat.c (gnu_nat_target::wait): Replace local
wait status kind image by target_waitstatus_to_string.
* target/waitstatus.c (target_waitstatus_to_string): Fix
obsolete comment.

This error happens as follows.
The function find_partial_die has a cu argument, but returns a pdi which may
or may not be from that cu:
...
/* Find a partial DIE at OFFSET, which may or may not be in CU,
except in the case of .debug_types DIEs which do not reference
outside their CU (they do however referencing other types via
DW_FORM_ref_sig8). */
static struct partial_die_info *
find_partial_die (sect_offset sect_off, int offset_in_dwz, struct dwarf2_cu *cu)
...
So the pdi returned by find_partial_die here in partial_die_parent_scope may
be from another cu:
...
partial_die_parent_scope (struct partial_die_info *pdi,
struct dwarf2_cu *cu)
{
const char *grandparent_scope;
struct partial_die_info *parent, *real_pdi;
/* We need to look at our parent DIE; if we have a DW_AT_specification,
then this means the parent of the specification DIE. */
real_pdi = pdi;
while (real_pdi->has_specification)
real_pdi = find_partial_die (real_pdi->spec_offset,
real_pdi->spec_is_dwz, cu);
parent = real_pdi->die_parent;
...
in which case both real_pdi and parent will be not from cu, but from another
one, say cu2.
Subsequently, cu's comp_unit_obstack is used to set parent->scope:
...
parent->scope = typename_concat (&cu->comp_unit_obstack,
grandparent_scope,
parent->name, 0, cu);
...
So, we use cu->comp_unit_obstack to assign a value to the scope field of
a pdi belonging to cu2, and when cu is deleted, the scope field points to a
freed value.
Fix this by making find_partial_die return the cu corresponding to the
returned pdi, and handling this at the call sites.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

In some cases GDB will fail when attempting to complete a command that
involves a rust symbol, the failure can manifest as a crash.
The problem is caused by the completion_match_for_lcd object being
left containing invalid data during calls to cp_symbol_name_matches_1.
The first question to address is why we are calling a C++ support
function when handling a rust symbol. That's due to GDB's auto
language detection for msymbols, in some cases GDB can't tell if a
symbol is a rust symbol, or a C++ symbol.
The test application contains symbols for functions which are
statically linked in from various rust support libraries. There's no
DWARF for these symbols, so all GDB has is the msymbols built from the
ELF symbol table.
Here's the problematic symbol that leads to our crash:
mangled: _ZN4core3str21_$LT$impl$u20$str$GT$5parse17h5111d2d6a50d22bdE
demangled: core::str::<impl str>::parse
As an msymbol this is initially created with language auto, then GDB
eventually calls symbol_find_demangled_name, which loops over all
languages calling language_defn::sniff_from_mangled_name, the first
language that can demangle the symbol gets assigned as the language
for that symbol.
Unfortunately, there's overlap in the mangled symbol names,
some (legacy) rust symbols can be demangled as both rust and C++, see
cplus_demangle in libiberty/cplus-dem.c where this is mentioned.
And so, because we check the C++ language before we check for rust,
then the msymbol is (incorrectly) given the C++ language.
Now it's true that is some cases we might be able to figure out that a
demangled symbol is not actually a valid C++ symbol, for example, in
our case, the construct '::<impl str>::' is not, I believe, valid in a
C++ symbol, we could look for ':<' and '>:' and refuse to accept this
as a C++ symbol.
However, I'm not sure it is always possible to tell that a demangled
symbol is rust or C++, so, I think, we have to accept that some times
we will get this language detection wrong.
If we accept that we can't fix the symbol language detection 100% of
the time, then we should make sure that GDB doesn't crash when it gets
the language wrong, that is what this commit addresses.
In our test case the user tries to complete a symbol name like this:
(gdb) complete break pars
This results in GDB trying to find all symbols that match 'pars',
eventually we consider our problematic symbol, and we end up with a
call stack that looks like this:
#0 0x0000000000f3c6bd in strncmp_iw_with_mode
#1 0x0000000000706d8d in cp_symbol_name_matches_1

#3 0x0000000000df3c45 in compare_symbol_name
#4 0x0000000000df3c91 in completion_list_add_name
#5 0x0000000000df3f1d in completion_list_add_msymbol
#6 0x0000000000df4c94 in default_collect_symbol_completion_matches_break_on
#7 0x0000000000658c08 in language_defn::collect_symbol_completion_matches
#8 0x0000000000df54c9 in collect_symbol_completion_matches

#10 0x00000000009d99f0 in complete_linespec_component
#11 0x00000000009da200 in linespec_complete
#12 0x00000000006e4132 in complete_address_and_linespec_locations
#13 0x00000000006e4ac3 in location_completer
In cp_symbol_name_matches_1 we enter a loop, this loop repeatedly
tries to match the demangled problematic symbol name against the user
supplied text ('pars'). Each time around the loop another component
of the symbol name is stripped off, thus, we check 'pars' against
these options:
core::str::<impl str>::parse
str::<impl str>::parse
<impl str>::parse
parse
As soon as we get a match the cp_symbol_name_matches_1 exits its loop
and returns. In our case, when we're looking for 'pars', the match
occurs on the last iteration of the loop, when we are comparing to
'parse'.
Now the problem here is that cp_symbol_name_matches_1 uses the
strncmp_iw_with_mode, and inside strncmp_iw_with_mode we allow for
skipping over template parameters. This allows GDB to match the
symbol name 'foo<int>(int,int)' if the user supplies 'foo(int,'.
Inside strncmp_iw_with_mode GDB will record any template arguments
that it has skipped over inside the completion_match_for_lcd object
that is passed in as an argument.
And so, when GDB tries to match against '<impl str>::parse', the first
thing it sees is '<impl str>', GDB assumes this is a template argument
and records this as a skipped region within the
completion_match_for_lcd object. After '<impl str>' GDB sees a ':'
character, which doesn't match with the 'pars' the user supplied, so
strncmp_iw_with_mode returns a value indicating a non-match. GDB then
removes the '<impl str>' component from the symbol name and tries
again, this time comparing to 'parse', which does match.
Having found a match, then in cp_symbol_name_matches_1 we record the
match string, and the full symbol name within the
completion_match_result object, and return.
The problem here is that the skipped region, the '<impl str>' that we
recorded in the penultimate loop iteration was never discarded, its
still there in our returned result.
If we look at what the pointers held in the completion_match_result
that cp_symbol_name_matches_1 returns, this is what we see:
core::str::<impl str>::parse
| \________/ |
| | '--- completion match string
| '---skip range
'--- full symbol name
When GDB calls completion_match_for_lcd::finish, GDB tries to create a
string using the completion match string (parse), but excluding the
skip range, as the stored skip range is before the start of the
completion match string, then GDB tries to do some weird string
creation, which will cause GDB to crash.
The reason we don't often see this problem in C++ is that for C++
symbols there is always some non-template text before the template
argument. This non-template text means GDB is likely to either match
the symbol, or reject the symbol without storing a skip range.
However, notice, I did say, we don't often see this problem. Once I
understood the issue, I was able to reproduce the crash using a pure
C++ example:
template<typename S>
struct foo
{
template<typename T>
foo (int p1, T a)
{
s = 0;
}
S s;
};
int
main ()
{
foo<int> obj (2.3, 0);
return 0;
}
Then in GDB:
(gdb) complete break foo(int
The problem here is that the C++ symbol for the constructor looks like
this:
foo<int>::foo<double>(int, double)
When GDB enters cp_symbol_name_matches_1 the symbols it examines are:
foo<int>::foo<double>(int, double)
foo<double>(int, double)
The first iteration of the loop will match the 'foo', then add the
'<int>' template argument will be added as a skip range. When GDB
find the ':' after the '<int>' the first iteration of the loop fails
to match, GDB removes the 'foo<int>::' component, and starts the
second iteration of the loop.
Again, GDB matches the 'foo', and now adds '<double>' as a skip
region. After that the '(int' successfully matches, and so the second
iteration of the loop succeeds, but, once again we left the '<int>' in
place as a skip region, even though this occurs before the start of
our match string, and this will cause GDB to crash.
This problem was reported to the mailing list, and a solution
discussed in this thread:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-January/195166.html
The solution proposed here is similar to one proposed by the original
bug reported, but implemented in a different location within GDB.
Instead of placing the fix in strncmp_iw_with_mode, I place the fix in
cp_symbol_name_matches_1. I believe this is a better location as it
is this function that implements the loop, and it is this loop, which
repeatedly calls strncmp_iw_with_mode, that should be resetting the
result object state (I believe).
What I have done is add an assert to strncmp_iw_with_mode that the
incoming result object is empty.
I've also added some other asserts in related code, in
completion_match_for_lcd::mark_ignored_range, I make some basic
assertions about the incoming range pointers, and in
completion_match_for_lcd::finish I also make some assertions about how
the skip ranges relate to the match pointer.
There's two new tests. The original rust example that was used in the
initial bug report, and a C++ test. The rust example depends on which
symbols are pulled in from the rust libraries, so it is possible that,
at some future date, the problematic symbol will disappear from this
test program. The C++ test should be more reliable, as this only
depends on symbols from within the C++ source code.
Since I originally posted this patch to the mailing list, the
following patch has been merged:
commit 6e7eef7
Date: Sun Mar 19 09:13:10 2023 -0600
Use rust_demangle to fix a crash
This solves the problem of a rust symbol ending up in the C++ specific
code by changing the order languages are sorted. However, this new
commit doesn't address the issue in the C++ code which was fixed with
this commit.
Given that the C++ issue is real, and has a reproducer, I'm still
going to merge this fix. I've left the discussion of rust in this
commit message as I originally wrote it, but it should be read within
the context of GDB prior to commit 6e7eef7.

Commit 7a8de0c ("Remove ALL_BREAKPOINTS_SAFE") introduced a use-after-free in the breakpoints iterations (see below for full ASan report). This makes gdb.base/stale-infcall.exp fail when GDB is build with ASan. check_longjmp_breakpoint_for_call_dummy iterates on all breakpoints, possibly deleting the current breakpoint as well as related breakpoints. The problem arises when a breakpoint in the B->related_breakpoint chain is also B->next. In that case, deleting that related breakpoint frees the breakpoint that all_breakpoints_safe has saved. The old code worked around that by manually changing B_TMP, which was the next breakpoint saved by the "safe iterator": while (b->related_breakpoint != b) { if (b_tmp == b->related_breakpoint) b_tmp = b->related_breakpoint->next; delete_breakpoint (b->related_breakpoint); } (Note that this seemed to assume that b->related_breakpoint->next was the same as b->next->next, not sure this is guaranteed.) The new code kept the B_TMP variable, but it's not useful in that context. We can't go change the next breakpoint as saved by the safe iterator, like we did before. I suggest fixing that by saving the breakpoints to delete in a map and deleting them all at the end. Here's the full ASan report: (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/stale-infcall.exp: continue to breakpoint: break-run1 print infcall () =================================================================

Commit b5661ff ("gdb: fix possible use-after-free when executing commands") attempted to fix possible use-after-free in case command redefines itself. Commit 37e5833 ("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) at remote.c:5946 #3 0x000055555711d577 in remote_target::open (name=0x55555881c7fe ":1234", from_tty=1) at remote.c:5272 #4 0x00005555573062f2 in open_target (args=0x55555881c7fe ":1234", from_tty=1, command=0x5555589d0490) at target.c:853 #5 0x0000555556ad22fa in cmd_func (cmd=0x5555589d0490, args=0x55555881c7fe ":1234", from_tty=1) at cli/cli-decode.c:2737 #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. Tested on x86_64-linux.

argv[0]->contents ().data (); Here argv[0] is a value* which we know is either a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY or a TYPE_CODE_STRING. The problem is that the above line is casting the value contents directly to a C-string, i.e. one that is assumed to have a null-terminator at the end. After the above commit this can no longer be assumed to be true. A string value will be represented just as it would be in the current language, so for Ada and Fortran the string will be an array of characters with no null-terminator at the end. My proposed solution is to copy the string contents into a std::string object, and then use the std::string::c_str() value, this will ensure that a null-terminator has been added. I had a check through GDB at places TYPE_CODE_STRING was used and couldn't see any other obvious places where this type of assumption was being made, so hopefully this is the only offender. Running the above test with ASan compiled in no longer gives an error. Reviewed-By: Tom Tromey <[email protected]>

While working on a later patch, which changes gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp, I noticed that sometimes I would hit this assert: x86_linux_update_debug_registers: Assertion `lwp_is_stopped (lwp)' failed. I eventually tracked it down to a combination of schedule-multiple mode being on, target-non-stop being off, follow-fork-mode being set to child, and some bad timing. The failing case is pretty simple, a single threaded application performs a vfork, the child process then execs some other application while the parent process (once the vfork child has completed its exec) just exits. As best I understand things, here's what happens when things go wrong: 1. The parent process performs a vfork, GDB sees the VFORKED event and creates an inferior and thread for the vfork child, 2. GDB resumes the vfork child process. As schedule-multiple is on and target-non-stop is off, this is translated into a request to start all processes (see user_visible_resume_ptid), 3. In the linux-nat layer we spot that one of the threads we are about to start is a vfork parent, and so don't start that thread (see resume_lwp), the vfork child thread is resumed, 4. GDB waits for the next event, eventually entering linux_nat_target::wait, which in turn calls linux_nat_wait_1, 5. In linux_nat_wait_1 we eventually call resume_stopped_resumed_lwps, this should restart threads that have stopped but don't actually have anything interesting to report. 6. Unfortunately, resume_stopped_resumed_lwps doesn't check for vfork parents like resume_lwp does, so at this point the vfork parent is resumed. This feels like the start of the bug, and this is where I'm proposing to fix things, but, resuming the vfork parent isn't the worst thing in the world because.... 7. As the vfork child is still alive the kernel holds the vfork parent stopped, 8. Eventually the child performs its exec and GDB is sent and EXECD event. However, because the parent is resumed, as soon as the child performs its exec the vfork parent also sends a VFORK_DONE event to GDB, 9. Depending on timing both of these events might seem to arrive in GDB at the same time. Normally GDB expects to see the EXECD or EXITED/SIGNALED event from the vfork child before getting the VFORK_DONE in the parent. We know this because it is as a result of the EXECD/EXITED/SIGNALED that GDB detaches from the parent (see handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit for details). Further the comment in target/waitstatus.h on TARGET_WAITKIND_VFORK_DONE indicates that when we remain attached to the child (not the parent) we should not expect to see a VFORK_DONE, 10. If both events arrive at the same time then GDB will randomly choose one event to handle first, in some cases this will be the VFORK_DONE. As described above, upon seeing a VFORK_DONE GDB expects that (a) the vfork child has finished, however, in this case this is not completely true, the child has finished, but GDB has not processed the event associated with the completion yet, and (b) upon seeing a VFORK_DONE GDB assumes we are remaining attached to the parent, and so resumes the parent process, 11. GDB now handles the EXECD event. In our case we are detaching from the parent, so GDB calls target_detach (see handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit), 12. While this has been going on the vfork parent is executing, and might even exit, 13. In linux_nat_target::detach the first thing we do is stop all threads in the process we're detaching from, the result of the stop request will be cached on the lwp_info object, 14. In our case the vfork parent has exited though, so when GDB waits for the thread, instead of a stop due to signal, we instead get a thread exited status, 15. Later in the detach process we try to resume the threads just prior to making the ptrace call to actually detach (see detach_one_lwp), as part of the process to resume a thread we try to touch some registers within the thread, and before doing this GDB asserts that the thread is stopped, 16. An exited thread is not classified as stopped, and so the assert triggers! So there's two bugs I see here. The first, and most critical one here is in step #6. I think that resume_stopped_resumed_lwps should not resume a vfork parent, just like resume_lwp doesn't resume a vfork parent. With this change in place the vfork parent will remain stopped in step instead GDB will only see the EXECD/EXITED/SIGNALLED event. The problems in #9 and #10 are therefore skipped and we arrive at #11, handling the EXECD event. As the parent is still stopped #12 doesn't apply, and in #13 when we try to stop the process we will see that it is already stopped, there's no risk of the vfork parent exiting before we get to this point. And finally, in #15 we are safe to poke the process registers because it will not have exited by this point. However, I did mention two bugs. The second bug I've not yet managed to actually trigger, but I'm convinced it must exist: if we forget vforks for a moment, in step #13 above, when linux_nat_target::detach is called, we first try to stop all threads in the process GDB is detaching from. If we imagine a multi-threaded inferior with many threads, and GDB running in non-stop mode, then, if the user tries to detach there is a chance that thread could exit just as linux_nat_target::detach is entered, in which case we should be able to trigger the same assert. But, like I said, I've not (yet) managed to trigger this second bug, and even if I could, the fix would not belong in this commit, so I'm pointing this out just for completeness. There's no test included in this commit. In a couple of commits time I will expand gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp which is when this bug would be exposed. Unfortunately there are at least two other bugs (separate from the ones discussed above) that need fixing first, these will be fixed in the next commits before the gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp test is expanded. If you do want to reproduce this failure then you will for certainly need to run the gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp test in a loop as the failures are all very timing sensitive. I've found that running multiple copies in parallel makes the failure more likely to appear, I usually run ~6 copies in parallel and expect to see a failure after within 10mins.

Like the last few commit, this fixes yet another vfork related issue. Like the commit titled: gdb: don't restart vfork parent while waiting for child to finish which addressed a case in linux-nat where we would try to resume a vfork parent, this commit addresses a very similar case, but this time occurring in infrun.c. Just like with that previous commit, this bug results in the assert: x86-linux-dregs.c:146: internal-error: x86_linux_update_debug_registers: Assertion `lwp_is_stopped (lwp)' failed. In this case the issue occurs when target-non-stop is on, but non-stop is off, and again, schedule-multiple is on. As with the previous commit, GDB is in follow-fork-mode child. If you have not done so, it is worth reading the earlier commit as many of the problems leading to the failure are the same, they just appear in a different part of GDB. Here are the steps leading to the assertion failure: 1. The user performs a 'next' over a vfork, GDB stop in the vfork child, 2. As we are planning to follow the child GDB sets the vfork_parent and vfork_child member variables in the two inferiors, the thread_waiting_for_vfork_done member is left as nullptr, that member is only used when GDB is planning to follow the parent inferior, 3. The user does 'continue', our expectation is that the vfork child should resume, and once that process has exited or execd, GDB should detach from the vfork parent. As a result of the 'continue' GDB eventually enters the proceed function, 4. In proceed we selected a ptid_t to resume, because schedule-multiple is on we select minus_one_ptid (see user_visible_resume_ptid), 5. As GDB is running in all-stop on top of non-stop mode, in the proceed function we iterate over all threads that match the resume ptid, which turns out to be all threads, and call proceed_resume_thread_checked. One of the threads we iterate over is the vfork parent thread, 6. As the thread passed to proceed_resume_thread_checked doesn't match any of the early return conditions, GDB will set the thread resumed, 7. As we are resuming one thread at a time, this thread is seen by the lower layers (e.g. linux-nat) as the "event thread", which means we don't apply any of the checks, e.g. is this thread a vfork parent, instead we assume that GDB core knows what it's doing, and linux-nat will resume the thread, we have now incorrectly set running the vfork parent thread when this thread should be waiting for the vfork child to complete, 8. Back in the proceed function GDB continues to iterate over all threads, and now (correctly) resumes the vfork child thread, 8. As the vfork child is still alive the kernel holds the vfork parent stopped, 9. Eventually the child performs its exec and GDB is sent and EXECD event. However, because the parent is resumed, as soon as the child performs its exec the vfork parent also sends a VFORK_DONE event to GDB, 10. Depending on timing both of these events might seem to arrive in GDB at the same time. Normally GDB expects to see the EXECD or EXITED/SIGNALED event from the vfork child before getting the VFORK_DONE in the parent. We know this because it is as a result of the EXECD/EXITED/SIGNALED that GDB detaches from the parent (see handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit for details). Further the comment in target/waitstatus.h on TARGET_WAITKIND_VFORK_DONE indicates that when we remain attached to the child (not the parent) we should not expect to see a VFORK_DONE, 11. If both events arrive at the same time then GDB will randomly choose one event to handle first, in some cases this will be the VFORK_DONE.

GDB now handles the EXECD event. In our case we are detaching from the parent, so GDB calls target_detach (see handle_vfork_child_exec_or_exit), 13. While this has been going on the vfork parent is executing, and might even exit, 14. In linux_nat_target::detach the first thing we do is stop all threads in the process we're detaching from, the result of the stop request will be cached on the lwp_info object, 15. In our case the vfork parent has exited though, so when GDB waits for the thread, instead of a stop due to signal, we instead get a thread exited status, 16. Later in the detach process we try to resume the threads just prior to making the ptrace call to actually detach (see detach_one_lwp), as part of the process to resume a thread we try to touch some registers within the thread, and before doing this GDB asserts that the thread is stopped, 17. An exited thread is not classified as stopped, and so the assert triggers! Just like with the earlier commit, the fix is to spot the vfork parent status of the thread, and not resume such threads. Where the earlier commit fixed this in linux-nat, in this case I think the fix should live in infrun.c, in proceed_resume_thread_checked. This function already has a similar check to not resume the vfork parent in the case where we are planning to follow the vfork parent, I propose adding a similar case that checks for the vfork parent when we plan to follow the vfork child. This new check will mean that at step #6 above GDB doesn't try to resume the vfork parent thread, which prevents the VFORK_DONE from ever arriving. Once GDB sees the EXECD/EXITED/SIGNALLED event from the vfork child GDB will detach from the parent. There's no test included in this commit. In a subsequent commit I will expand gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp which is when this bug would be exposed. If you do want to reproduce this failure then you will for certainly need to run the gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp test in a loop as the failures are all very timing sensitive. I've found that running multiple copies in parallel makes the failure more likely to appear, I usually run ~6 copies in parallel and expect to see a failure after within 10mins.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/index-cache.c:76 in index_cache::enable()
...
The race happens when issuing a "file $exec" command followed by a
"set index-cache enabled on" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread reading index_cache::m_enabled to determine whether an
index-cache entry for $exec needs to be written
(due to command "file $exec"), and
- the main thread setting index_cache::m_enabled
(due to command "set index-cache enabled on").
Fix this by capturing the value of index_cache::m_enabled in the main thread,
and using the captured value in the worker thread.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race bfd/cache.c:584 in bfd_open_file
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread getting the build id while writing the index cache, and in
the process reading bfd::format, and
- the main thread calling find_main_name, and in the process setting
bfd::cacheable.
The two bitfields bfd::cacheable and bfd::format share the same bitfield
container.
Fix this by capturing the build id in the main thread, and using the captured
value in the worker thread.
Likewise for the dwz build id, which likely suffers from the same issue.
While we're at it, also move the creation of the cache directory to
the index_cache_store_context constructor, to:
- make sure there's no race between subsequent file commands, and
- issue any related warning or error messages during the file command.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:5564 in queue_comp_unit
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread expanding the CU containing main, and in the process setting
dwarf2_per_cu_data::queued.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::queue and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::queued a packed<bool, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:21513 in dwarf2_per_cu_data::get_header() const
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in a packed<bool, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:3077 in dw_expand_symtabs_matching_file_matcher(dwarf2_per_objfile*, gdb::function_view<bool (char const*, bool)>)
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark a packed<unsigned int, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:2033 in dw2_get_file_names_reader
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read a packed<bool, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

After running a number of programs under Windows gdb and detaching them, I typed run in gdb, and got a hang, here: (top-gdb) bt #0 sharing_input_terminal (pid=4672) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/mingw-hdep.c:388 #1 0x00007ff71a2d8678 in sharing_input_terminal (inf=0x23bf23dafb0) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/inflow.c:269 #2 0x00007ff71a2d887b in child_terminal_save_inferior (self=0x23bf23de060) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/inflow.c:423 #3 0x00007ff71a2c80c0 in inf_child_target::terminal_save_inferior (this=0x23bf23de060) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/inf-child.c:111 #4 0x00007ff71a429c0f in target_terminal_is_ours_kind (desired_state=target_terminal_state::is_ours_for_output) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/target.c:1037 #5 0x00007ff71a429e02 in target_terminal::ours_for_output () at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/target.c:1094 #6 0x00007ff71a2ccc8e in post_create_inferior (from_tty=0) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/infcmd.c:245 #7 0x00007ff71a2cd431 in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=0, run_how=RUN_NORMAL) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/infcmd.c:502 #8 0x00007ff71a2cd58b in run_command (args=0x0, from_tty=0) at /home/pedro/gdb/src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 The problem is that the loop around GetConsoleProcessList looped forever, because there were exactly 10 processes to return. GetConsoleProcessList's documentation says: If the buffer is too small to hold all the valid process identifiers, the return value is the required number of array elements. The function will have stored no identifiers in the buffer. In this situation, use the return value to allocate a buffer that is large enough to store the entire list and call the function again. In this case, the buffer wasn't too small, it was exactly the right size, so we should have broken out of the loop. We didn't due to a "<" check that should have been "<=". That is fixed by this patch. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <[email protected]> Reviewed-By: Eli Zaretskii <[email protected]> Change-Id: I14e4909f2ac2fa83d0d9b6e64418b5831ac4e4e3

This commit fixes an issue that was discovered while writing the tests for the previous commit. I noticed that, when GDB restarts an inferior, the executable_changed event would trigger twice. The first notification would originate from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x4046680 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x00000000006f3adb in reopen_exec_file () at ../../src/gdb/corefile.c:122 #2 0x0000000000e6a3f2 in generic_mourn_inferior () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:3682 #3 0x0000000000995121 in inf_child_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-child.c:192 #4 0x0000000000995cff in inf_ptrace_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-ptrace.c:125 #5 0x0000000000a32472 in linux_nat_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3609 #6 0x0000000000e68a40 in target_mourn_inferior (ptid=...) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2761 #7 0x0000000000a323ec in linux_nat_target::kill (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3593 #8 0x0000000000e64d1c in target_kill () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:924 #9 0x00000000009a19bc in kill_if_already_running (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:328 #10 0x00000000009a1a6f in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:381 #11 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #12 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 While the second originates from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x3d7a1d0 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x0000000000dfe525 in reread_symbols (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/symfile.c:2517 #2 0x00000000009a1a98 in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:398 #3 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #4 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 In the first case the call to exec_file_attach first passes through reopen_exec_file. The reopen_exec_file performs a modification time check on the executable file, and only calls exec_file_attach if the executable has changed on disk since it was last loaded. However, in the second case things work a little differently. In this case GDB is really trying to reread the debug symbol. As such, we iterate over the objfiles list, and for each of those we check the modification time, if the file on disk has changed then we reload the debug symbols from that file. However, there is an additional check, if the objfile has the same name as the executable then we will call exec_file_attach, but we do so without checking the cached modification time that indicates when the executable was last reloaded, as a result, we reload the executable twice. In this commit I propose that reread_symbols be changed to unconditionally call reopen_exec_file before performing the objfile iteration. This will ensure that, if the executable has changed, then the executable will be reloaded, however, if the executable has already been recently reloaded, we will not reload it for a second time. After handling the executable, GDB can then iterate over the objfiles list and reload them in the normal way. With this done I now see the executable reloaded only once when GDB restarts an inferior, which means I can remove the kfail that I added to the gdb.python/py-exec-file.exp test in the previous commit.

It was pointed out on the mailing list that a recently added test (gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp) was failing when run with the native-extended-gdbserver board. This test was added with this commit: commit 59912fb Date: Tue Sep 19 11:45:36 2023 +0100 gdb: add Python events for program space addition and removal It turns out though that the test is failing due to a existing bug in GDB, the new test just exposes the problem. Additionally, the failure really doesn't even rely on the new functionality added in the above commit. I reduced the test to a simple set of steps that reproduced the failure and tested against GDB 13, and the test passes; so the bug was introduced since then. In fact, the bug was introduced with this commit: commit a282736 Date: Fri Sep 8 15:48:16 2023 +0100 gdb: remove final user of the executable_changed observer This commit changed how the per-inferior auxv data cache is managed, specifically, when the cache is cleared, and it is this that leads to the failure. This bug is interesting because it exposes a number of issues with GDB, I'll explain all of the problems I see, though ultimately, I only propose fixing one problem in this commit, which is enough to resolve the crash we are currently seeing.

Problem #2 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is throwing an error in this case; the error is thrown because the remote target, operating in non-async mode, can't read the auxv data while an inferior is running and GDB is waiting for a stop reply. The problem here then, is why does GDB get into a position where it tries to interact with the remote target in this way, at this time? The problem is caused by the prune_inferiors call which can be seen in the above backtrace. In prune_inferiors we check if the inferior is deletable, and if it is, we delete it. The problem is, I think, we should also check if the target is currently in a state that would allow us to delete the inferior. We don't currently have such a check available, we'd need to add one, but for the remote target, this would return false if the remote is in async mode and the remote is currently waiting for a stop reply. With this change in place GDB would defer deleting the inferior until the remote target has stopped, at which point GDB would be able to refill the auxv cache successfully. And then, problem #3 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is needing to refill the auxv cache now when it didn't need to for GDB 13. This is where the second commit mentioned above (a282736) comes in. Prior to this commit, the auxv cache was cleared by the executable_changed observer, while after that commit the auxv cache was cleared by the new_objfile observer -- but only when the new_objfile observer is used in the special mode that actually means that all objfiles have been unloaded (I know, the overloading of the new_objfile observer is horrible, and unnecessary, but it's not really important for this bug). The difference arises because the new_objfile observer is triggered from clear_symtab_users, which in turn is called from program_space::~program_space. The new_objfile observer for auxv does this: static void auxv_new_objfile_observer (struct objfile *objfile) { if (objfile == nullptr) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (current_inferior ()); } That is, when all the objfiles are unloaded, we clear the auxv cache for the current inferior. The problem is, then when we look at the prune_inferiors -> delete_inferior -> ~program_space path, we see that the current inferior is not going to be an inferior that exists within the program_space being deleted; delete_inferior removes the deleted inferior from the global inferior list, and then only deletes the program_space if program_space::empty() returns true, which is only the case if the current inferior isn't within the program_space to delete, and no other inferior exists within that program_space either. What this means is that when the new_objfile observer is called we can't rely on the current inferior having any relationship with the program space in which the objfiles were removed. This was an error in the commit a282736, the only thing we can rely on is the current program space. As a result of this mistake, after commit a282736, GDB was sometimes clearing the auxv cache for a random inferior. In the native target case this was harmless as we can always refill the cache when needed, but in the remote target case, if we need to refill the cache when the remote target is executing, then we get the crash we observed. And additionally, if we think about this a little more, we see that commit a282736 made another mistake. When all the objfiles are removed, they are removed from a program_space, a program_space might contain multiple inferiors, so surely, we should clear the auxv cache for all of the matching inferiors? Given these two insights, that the current_inferior is not relevant, only the current_program_space, and that we should be clearing the cache for all inferiors in the current_program_space, we can update auxv_new_objfile_observer to: if (objfile == nullptr) { for (inferior *inf : all_inferiors ()) { if (inf->pspace == current_program_space) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (inf); } } With this change we now correctly clear the auxv cache for the correct inferiors, and GDB no longer needs to refill the cache at an inconvenient time, this avoids the crash we were seeing. And finally, we reach problem #4. Inspired by the observation that using the current_inferior from within the ~program_space function was not correct, I added some debug to see if current_inferior() was called anywhere else (below ~program_space), and the answer is yes, it's called a often. Mostly the culprit is GDB doing: current_inferior ()->top_target ()-> .... But I think all of these calls are most likely doing the wrong thing, and only work because the top target in all these cases is shared between all inferiors, e.g. it's the native target, or the remote target for all inferiors. But if we had a truly multi-connection setup, then we might start to see odd behaviour. Problem #1 I'm just ignoring for now, I guess at some point we might run into this again, and then we'd need to solve this. But in this case I wasn't sure what a "good" solution would look like. We need the auxv data in order to implement the linux_is_uclinux() function. If we can't get the auxv data then what should we do, assume yes, or assume no? The right answer would probably be to propagate the error back up the stack, but then we reach ~program_space, and throwing exceptions from a destructor is problematic, so we'd need to catch and deal at this point. The linux_is_uclinux() call is made from within gdbarch_has_shared_address_space(), which is used like: if (!gdbarch_has_shared_address_space (target_gdbarch ())) delete this->aspace; So, we would have to choose; delete the address space or not. If we delete it on error, then we might delete an address space that is shared within another program space. If we don't delete the address space, then we might leak it. Neither choice is great. A better solution might be to have the address spaces be reference counted, then we could remove the gdbarch_has_shared_address_space call completely, and just rely on the reference count to auto-delete the address space when appropriate. The solution for problem #2 I already hinted at above, we should have a new target_can_delete_inferiors() call, which should be called from prune_inferiors, this would prevent GDB from trying to delete inferiors when a (remote) target is in a state where we know it can't delete the inferior. Deleting an inferior often (always?) requires sending packets to the remote, and if the remote is waiting for a stop reply then this will never work, so the pruning should be deferred in this case. The solution for problem #3 is included in this commit. And, for problem #4, I'm not sure what the right solution is. Maybe delete_inferior should ensure the inferior to be deleted is in place when ~program_space is called? But that seems a little weird, as the current inferior would, in theory, still be using the current program_space... Anyway, after this commit, the gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp test now passes when run with the native-extended-remote board.

The problem was caused by three lines like this one: thread_info *thr = parse_thread_id (std::string (t.get_value ()).c_str (), &tmptok); After parsing the thread-id TMPTOK would be left pointing into the temporary string which had been created on this line. When on the next line we did this: gdb_assert (*tmptok == '\0'); The value of *TMPTOK is undefined. Fix this by creating the std::string earlier in the scope. Now the contents of the string will remain valid when we check *TMPTOK. The address sanitizer issue is now resolved.

That is, at this line of `minimal_symbol::value_address`, where
`objfile->section_offsets` is an `std::vector`:
return (CORE_ADDR (this->unrelocated_address ())
+ objfile->section_offsets[this->section_index ()]);
A section index of -29445 is suspicious. The minimal_symbol at play
here is:
(top-gdb) p m_name
$1 = 0x521001de10af "_sinittext"
So I restarted debugging, breaking on:
(top-gdb) b general_symbol_info::set_section_index if $_streq("_sinittext", m_name)
And I see that weird -29445 value:
(top-gdb) frame
#0 general_symbol_info::set_section_index (this=0x525000082390, idx=-29445) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/symtab.h:611
611 { m_section = idx; }
But going up one frame, the section index is 36091:
(top-gdb) frame
#1 0x0000555562426526 in minimal_symbol_reader::record_full (this=0x7ffff0ead560, name="_sinittext", copy_name=false,

1228 msymbol->set_section_index (section);
It seems like the problem is just that the type used for the section
index (short) is not big enough. Change from short to int. If somebody
insists, we could even go long long / int64_t, but I doubt it's
necessary.
With that fixed, I get:

It's because the first 4 double arguments are passed via XMM registers,
and they need a buffer of 16 bytes, even if we only use 8 bytes of them.

It happens because gdb_bfd_close_or_warn uses a bfd-internal name for
the failing-close warning, after the close is finished, and the name
already freed:
static int
gdb_bfd_close_or_warn (struct bfd *abfd)
{
int ret;
const char *name = bfd_get_filename (abfd);
for (asection *sect : gdb_bfd_sections (abfd))
free_one_bfd_section (sect);
ret = bfd_close (abfd);
if (!ret)
gdb_bfd_close_warning (name,
bfd_errmsg (bfd_get_error ()));
return ret;
}
Fixed by making a copy of the name for the warning.

This results in an array view of size 1. The assertion in `frame_register_unwind` that verifies the passed in buffer is larger enough to hold the unwound register value then fails. Fix this by explicitly creating an array view of the right size. Change-Id: Ie170da438ec9085863e7be8b455a067b531635dc Reviewed-by: Thiago Jung Bauermann <[email protected]>

Recent work in the TUI has improved GDB's use of the curses wnoutrefresh and doupdate mechanism, which improves performance by batching together updates and then doing a single set of writes to the screen when doupdate is finally called. The tui_batch_rendering type is a RAII class which, in its destructor, calls doupdate to send the batched updates to the screen. However, if there is no tui_batch_rendering active on the call stack then any wnoutrefresh calls will remain batched but undisplayed until the next time doupdate happens to be called. This problem can be seen in PR gdb/32623. When an inferior is started the 'Starting program' message is not immediately displayed to the user. The 'Starting program' message originates from run_command_1 in infcmd.c, the message is sent to the current_uiout, which will be the TUI ui_out. After the message is sent, ui_out::flush() is called, here's the backtrace when that happens: #0 tui_file::flush (this=0x36e4ab0) at ../../src/gdb/tui/tui-file.c:42 #1 0x0000000001004f4b in pager_file::flush (this=0x36d35f0) at ../../src/gdb/utils.c:1531 #2 0x0000000001004f71 in gdb_flush (stream=0x36d35f0) at ../../src/gdb/utils.c:1539 #3 0x00000000006975ab in cli_ui_out::do_flush (this=0x35a50b0) at ../../src/gdb/cli-out.c:250 #4 0x00000000009fd1f9 in ui_out::flush (this=0x35a50b0) at ../../src/gdb/ui-out.h:263 #5 0x00000000009f56ad in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_NORMAL) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:449 #6 0x00000000009f599a in run_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:511 And if we check out tui_file::flush (tui-file.c) we can see that this just calls tui_win_info::refresh_window(), which in turn, just uses wnoutrefresh to batch any pending output. The problem is that, in the above backtrace, there is no tui_batch_rendering active, and so there will be no doupdate call to flush the output to the screen. We could add a tui_batch_rendering into tui_file::flush. And tui_file::write. And tui_file::puts ..... ... but that all seems a bit unnecessary. Instead, I propose that tui_win_info::refresh_window() should be changed. If suppress_output is true (i.e. a tui_batch_rendering is active) then we should continue to call wnoutrefresh(). But if suppress_output is false, meaning that no tui_batch_rendering is in place, then we should call wrefresh(), which immediately writes the output to the screen. Testing but PR gdb/32623 was a little involved. We need to 'run' the inferior and check for the 'Starting program' message. But DejaGNUU can only check for the message once it knows the message should have appeared. But, as the bug is that output is not displayed, we don't have any output hints that the inferior is started yet... In the end, I have the inferior create a file in the test's output directory. Now DejaGNU can send the 'run' command, and wait for the file to appear. Once that happens, we know that the 'Starting program' message should have appeared.

Consider the test-case sources main.c and foo.c:
$ cat main.c
extern int foo (void);
int
main (void)
{
return foo ();
}
$ cat foo.c
extern int foo (void);
int
foo (void)
{
return 0;
}
and main.c compiled with debug info, and foo.c without:
$ gcc -g main.c -c
$ gcc foo.c -c
$ gcc -g main.o foo.o
In TUI mode, if we run to foo:
$ gdb -q a.out -tui -ex "b foo" -ex run
it gets us "[ No Source Available ]":
┌─main.c─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ │
│ │
│ [ No Source Available ] │
│ │
│ │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
(src) In: foo L?? PC: 0x400566
...
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000400566 in foo ()
(gdb)
But after resizing (pressing ctrl-<minus> in the gnome-terminal), we
get instead the source for main.c:
┌─main.c─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 3 int │
│ 4 main (void) │
│ 5 { │
│ 6 return foo (); │
│ 7 } │
│ │
│ │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
(src) In: foo L?? PC: 0x400566
...
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000400566 in foo ()
(gdb)
which is inappropriate because we're stopped in function foo, which is
not in main.c.
The problem is that, when the window is resized, GDB ends up calling
tui_source_window_base::rerender. The rerender function has three
cases, one for when the window already has some source code
content (which is not the case here), a case for when the inferior is
active, and we have a selected frame (which is the case that applies
here), and a final case for when the inferior is not running.
For the case which we end up in, the source code window has no
content, but the inferior is running, so we have a selected frame, GDB
calls the get_current_source_symtab_and_line() function to get the
symtab_and_line for the current location.
The get_current_source_symtab_and_line() will actually return the last
recorded symtab and line location, not the current symtab and line
location.
What this means, is that, if the current location has no debug
information, get_current_source_symtab_and_line() will return any
previously recorded location, or failing that, the default (main)
location.
This behaviour of get_current_source_symtab_and_line() also causes
problems for the 'list' command. Consider this pure CLI session:
(gdb) break foo
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40110a
(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/a.out
Breakpoint 1, 0x000000000040110a in foo ()
(gdb) list
1 extern int foo (void);
2
3 int
4 main (void)
5 {
6 return foo ();
7 }
(gdb) list .
Insufficient debug info for showing source lines at current PC (0x40110a).
(gdb)
However, if we look at how GDB's TUI updates the source window during
a normal stop, we see that GDB does a better job of displaying the
expected contents. Going back to our original example, when we start
GDB with:
$ gdb -q a.out -tui -ex "b foo" -ex run
we do get the "[ No Source Available ]" message as expected. Why is
that?
The answer is that, in this case GDB uses tui_show_frame_info to
update the source window, tui_show_frame_info is called each time a
prompt is displayed, like this:
#0 tui_show_frame_info (fi=...) at ../../src/gdb/tui/tui-status.c:269

If we look at how tui_show_frame_info figures out what source to
display, it doesn't use get_current_source_symtab_and_line(), instead,
it finds a symtab_and_line directly from a frame_info_pt. This means
we are not dependent on get_current_source_symtab_and_line() returning
the current location (which it does not).
I propose that we change tui_source_window_base::rerender() so that,
for the case we are discussing here (the inferior has a selected
frame, but the source window has no contents), we move away from using
get_current_source_symtab_and_line(), and instead use find_frame_sal
instead, like tui_show_frame_info does.
This means that we will always use the inferior's current location.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

PR 32742 shows this failing:

Or, interactively:
$ ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory testsuite/outputs/gdb.ada/access_to_unbounded_array/foo-all -ex 'b foo.adb:23' -batch
/home/simark/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:19567: internal-error: set_lang: Assertion `old_value == language_unknown || old_value == language_minimal || old_value == lang' failed.
The symptom is that for a given dwarf2_per_cu, the language gets set
twice. First, set to `language_ada`, and then, to `language_minimal`.
It's unexpected for the language of a CU to get changed like this.
The CU at offset 0x0 in the main file looks like:
0x00000000: Compile Unit: length = 0x00000030, format = DWARF32, version = 0x0004, abbr_offset = 0x0000, addr_size = 0x08 (next unit at 0x00000034)

This refers to the DWO file b~foo.dwo, whose top-level DIE is:

The thing to note is that the language attribute is only present in the
DIE in the DWO file, not on the DIE in the main file.
The first time the language gets set is here:
#0 dwarf2_per_cu::set_lang (this=0x50f0000044b0, lang=language_ada, dw_lang=DW_LANG_Ada95) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:20788

In this code path (particularly this specific cutu_reader constructir),
the work is done to find and read the DWO file. So the language is
properly identifier as language_ada, all good so far.
The second time the language gets set is:
#0 dwarf2_per_cu::set_lang (this=0x50f0000044b0, lang=language_minimal, dw_lang=0) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:20788

Here, we use the other cutu_reader constructor, the one that does not
look up the DWO file for the passed CU. If a DWO file exists for this
CU, the caller is expected to pass it as a parameter. That cutu_reader
constructor also ends up setting the language of the CU. But because it
didn't read the DWO file, it didn't figure out the language is
language_ada, so it tries to set the language to the default,
language_minimal.
A question is: why do we end up trying to set the CU's language is this
context. This is completely unrelated to what we're trying to do, that
is get the file names from the line table. Setting the language is a
side-effect of just constructing a cutu_reader, which we need to look up
attributes in dw2_get_file_names_reader. There are probably some
cleanups to be done here, to avoid doing useless work like looking up
and setting the CU's language when all we need is an object to help
reading the DIEs and attributes. But that is future work.
The same cutu_reader constructor is used in
`dwarf2_per_cu::ensure_lang`. Since this is the version of cutu_reader
that does not look up the DWO file, it will conclude that the language
is language_minimal and set that as the CU's language. In other words,
`dwarf2_per_cu::ensure_lang` will get the language wrong, pretty ironic.
Fix this by using the other cutu_reader constructor in those two spots.
Pass `per_objfile->get_cu (this_cu)`, as the `existing_cu` parameter. I
think this is necessary, because that constructor has an assert to check
that if `existing_cu` is nullptr, then there must not be an existing
`dwarf2_cu` in the per_objfile.
To avoid getting things wrong like this, I think that the second
cutu_reader constructor should be reserved for the spots that do pass a
non-nullptr dwo_file. The only spot at the moment in
create_cus_hash_table, where we read multiple units from the same DWO
file. In this context, I guess it makes sense for efficiency to get the
dwo_file once and pass it down to cutu_reader. For that constructor,
make the parameters non-optional, add "non-nullptr" asserts, and update
the code to assume the passed values are not nullptr.
What I don't know is if this change is problematic thread-wise, if the
functions I have modified to use the other cutu_reader constructor can
be called concurrently in worker threads. If so, I think it would be
problematic.

I'm not entirely sure that it is correct to append type units from dwo files to the all_units vector like this. The dwarf2_find_containing_comp_unit function expects a precise ordering of the elements of the all_units vector, to be able to do a binary search. Appending a type unit at the end at this point certainly doesn't respect that ordering. For now I'd just like to undo the regression. Do that by using all_units_range in the ranged for loop. I will keep in mind to investigate whether this insertion of type units in all_units after the fact really makes sense or not. Change-Id: Iec131e59281cf2dbd12d3f3d163b59018fdc54da

On Debian 12, with gcc 12 and ld 2.40, I get some failures when running:
$ make check TESTS="gdb.base/style.exp" RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=fission"
I think I stumble on this bug [1], preventing the test from doing
anything that requires expanding the compilation unit:

The exception is then only caught at the event-loop level
(start_event_loop), causing the whole debug info reading process to be
aborted. I think it's a little harsh, considering that a lot of things
could work even if we failed to read macro information.
Catch the exception inside read_file_scope, print the exception, and
carry on. We could go even more fine-grained: if reading the string for
one macro definition fails, we could continue reading the macro
information. Perhaps it's just that one macro definition that is
broken. However, I don't need this level of granularity, so I haven't
attempted this. Also, my experience is that macro reading fails when
the compiler or linker has a bug, in which case pretty much everything
is messed up.
With this patch, it now looks like:
$ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style
Reading symbols from testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style...
(gdb) p main
While reading section .debug_macro.dwo: DW_FORM_strp pointing outside of .debug_str section [in module /home/smarchi/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style]
$1 = {int (int, char **)} 0x684 <main>
(gdb)
In the test I am investigating (gdb.base/style.exp with the fission
board), it allows more tests to run:
-# of expected passes 107
-# of unexpected failures 17
+# of expected passes 448
+# of unexpected failures 19
Of course, we still see the error about the macro information, and some
macro-related tests still fail (those would be kfailed ideally), but
many tests that are not macro-dependent now pass.
