PR tdep/30252 reports that using GDB on Solaris fails an assertion in
target_resume:
target.c:2648: internal-error: target_resume: Assertion `inferior_ptid != null_ptid' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.

The problem is that the procfs backend, while inside target_wait,
called target_resume without switching to the leader thread of that
resumption.
The target_resume interface is:
/* Resume execution (or prepare for execution) of the current thread
(INFERIOR_PTID), while optionally letting other threads of the
current process or all processes run free.
...
Thus calling target_resume with inferior_ptid == null_ptid is bogus.
target_wait (which leads to procfs_target::wait on Solaris) is called
with inferior_ptid == null_ptid on entry exactly to help catch such
bogus uses.
From the backtrace, it seems that the relevant line in question is
procfs.c:2187:
2186 /* How to keep going without returning to wfi: */
2187 target_continue_no_signal (ptid);
2188 goto wait_again;
target_continue_no_signal is a small wrapper around target_resume,
which would make sense.
The fix is to not call target_resume or go via the target stack at
all. Instead, factor out a new proc_resume function out of
procfs_target::resume, and call that. The new function does not rely
on inferior_ptid.
I've not been able to test it myself, but Petr confirmed it fixes the
assertion failure with his test case, and Marcel Telka also confirmed
it solves the problem.

This commit changes gdb/version.in to 13.2.90.DATE-git.
This commit also makes the following changes in gdb/testsuite:
* gdb.base/default.exp: Change $_gdb_minor to 3.
Commit b5661ff2 ("gdb: fix possible use-after-free when
executing commands") attempted to fix possible use-after-free
in case command redefines itself.
Commit 37e5833d ("gdb: fix command lookup in execute_command ()")
updated the previous fix to handle subcommands as well by using the
original command string to lookup the command again after its execution.
This fixed the test in gdb.base/define.exp but it turned out that it
does not work (at least) for "target remote" and "target extended-remote".
The problem is that the command buffer P passed to execute_command ()
gets overwritten in dont_repeat () while executing "target remote"
command itself:
#0 dont_repeat () at top.c:822
#1 0x000055555730982a in target_preopen (from_tty=1) at target.c:2483
#2 0x000055555711e911 in remote_target::open_1 (name=0x55555881c7fe ":1234", from_tty=1, extended_p=0)
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.

(cherry picked from commit b69378ced6)
The cooked index scanner has special code to handle forward DIE
references. However, a bug report lead to the discovery that this
code does not work -- the "deferred_entry::spec_offset" field is
written to but never used, i.e., the lookup is done using the wrong
key.
This patch fixes the bug and adds a regression test.
The test in the bug itself used a thread_local variable, which
provoked a failure at runtime. This test instead uses "maint print
objfiles" and then inspects to ensure that the entry in question has a
parent. This lets us avoid a clang dependency in the test.

When building with clang 16, we get:

The error message does not make it clear in the context of which enum
flag this fails (i.e. what is T in this context), but it doesn't really
matter, we have similar warning/errors for many of them, if we let the
build go through.
clang is right that the value -1 is invalid for the enum type we cast -1
to. However, we do need this expression in order to select an integer
type with the appropriate signedness. That is, with the same signedness
as the underlying type of the enum.
I first wondered if that was really needed, if we couldn't use
std::underlying_type for that. It turns out that the comment just above
says:
/* Note that std::underlying_type<enum_type> is not what we want here,
since that returns unsigned int even when the enum decays to signed
int. */
I was surprised, because std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<enum_type>>
returns the right thing. So I tried replacing all this with
std::underlying_type, see if that would work. Doing so causes some
build failures in unittests/enum-flags-selftests.c:

This is a bit hard to decode, but basically enumerations have the
following funny property that they decay into a signed int, even if
their implicit underlying type is unsigned. This code:
enum A {};
enum B {};
int main() {
std::cout << std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<A>::type>::value
<< std::endl;
std::cout << std::is_signed<std::underlying_type<B>::type>::value
<< std::endl;
auto result = true ? A() : B();
std::cout << std::is_signed<decltype(result)>::value << std::endl;
}
produces:
0
0
1
So, the "CHECK_VALID" above checks that this property works for enum flags the
same way as it would if you were using their underlying enum types. And
somehow, changing integer_for_size to use std::underlying_type breaks that.
Since the current code does what we want, and I don't see any way of doing it
differently, ignore -Wenum-constexpr-conversion around it.

../../../repos/binutils-gdb/gdb/thread.c:86: internal-error: inferior_thread: Assertion `current_thread_ != nullptr' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
We also see failures across the testsuite if the tests get executed on a target
that has native support for the pointer authentication feature. But
gdb.base/break.exp and gdb.base/access-mem-running.exp are two examples of
tests that run into errors and internal errors.
This issue started after commit d88cb738e6, which
enabled more broad use of pointer authentication masks to remove non-address
bits of pointers, but wasn't immediately detected because systems with native
support for pointer authentication are not that common yet.
The above crash happens because gdb is in the middle of handling an event,
and do_target_wait_1 calls switch_to_inferior_no_thread, nullifying the
current thread. This means a call to inferior_thread () will assert, and
attempting to call get_current_regcache () will also call inferior_thread (),
resulting in an assertion as well.
target_has_registers was one function that seemed useful for detecting these
types of situation where we don't have a register cache. The problem with that
is the inconsistent state of inferior_ptid, which is used by
target_has_registers.
Despite the call to switch_to_no_thread in switch_to_inferior_no_thread from
do_target_wait_1 in the backtrace above clearing inferior_ptid, the call to
ps_xfer_memory sets inferior_ptid momentarily before reading memory:
static ps_err_e
ps_xfer_memory (const struct ps_prochandle *ph, psaddr_t addr,
gdb_byte *buf, size_t len, int write)
{
scoped_restore_current_inferior restore_inferior;
set_current_inferior (ph->thread->inf);
scoped_restore_current_program_space restore_current_progspace;
set_current_program_space (ph->thread->inf->pspace);
scoped_restore save_inferior_ptid = make_scoped_restore (&inferior_ptid);
inferior_ptid = ph->thread->ptid;
CORE_ADDR core_addr = ps_addr_to_core_addr (addr);
int ret;
if (write)
ret = target_write_memory (core_addr, buf, len);
else
ret = target_read_memory (core_addr, buf, len);
return (ret == 0 ? PS_OK : PS_ERR);
}
Maybe this shouldn't happen, or maybe it is just an unfortunate state to be
in. But this prevents the use of target_has_registers to guard against the
lack of registers, since, although current_thread_ is still nullptr,
inferior_ptid is valid and is not null_ptid.
There is another crash scenario after we kill a previously active inferior, in
which case the gdbarch will still say we support pointer authentication but we
will also have no current thread (inferior_thread () will assert etc).
If the target has support for pointer authentication, gdb needs to use
a couple (or 4, for bare-metal) mask registers to mask off some bits of
pointers, and for that it needs to access the registers.
At some points, like the one from the backtrace above, there is no active
thread/current regcache because gdb is in the middle of doing event handling
and switching between threads.
Simon suggested the use of inferior_ptid to fetch the register cache, as
opposed to relying on the current register cache. Though we need to make sure
inferior_ptid is valid (not null_ptid), I think this works nicely.
With inferior_ptid, we can do safety checks along the way, making sure we have
a thread to fetch a register cache from and checking if the thread is actually
stopped or running.
The following patch implements this idea with safety checks to make sure we
don't run into assertions or errors. If any of the checks fail, we fallback to
using a default mask to remove non-address bits of a pointer.
I discussed with Pedro the possibility of caching the mask register values
(which are per-process and can change mid-execution), but there isn't a good
spot to cache those values. Besides, the mask registers can change constantly
for bare-metal debugging when switching between exception levels.
In some cases, it is just not possible to get access to these mask registers,
like the case where threads are running. In those cases, using a default mask
to remove the non-address bits should be enough.
This can happen when we let threads run in the background and then we attempt
to access a memory address (now that gdb is capable of reading memory even
with threads running). Thus gdb will attempt to remove non-address bits
of that memory access, will attempt to access registers, running into errors.
Regression-tested on aarch64-linux Ubuntu 20.04.
gdb 13.1 crashes while running the rust compiler's debugger tests.
The crash has a number of causes.
First, the rust compiler still uses the C++-like _Z mangling, but with
its own twist -- some hex digits added to the end of a symbol. So,
while gdb finds the correct name of "main":
(top-gdb) p name
$13 = 0x292e0c0 "rustc_gdb_1031745::main"
It isn't found in the minsyms, because C++ demangling yields:
[99] t 0x90c0 _ZN17rustc_gdb_10317454main17h5b5be7fe16a97225E section .text rustc_gdb_1031745::main::h5b5be7fe16a97225 zko06yobckx336v
This could perhaps be fixed. I also filed a new PR to suggest
preferring the linkage name of the main program.
Next, the rust compiler emits both a DW_TAG_subprogram and a
DW_TAG_namespace for "main". This happens because the file is named
"main.rs" -- i.e., the bug is specific to the source file name. The
crash also seems to require the nested function inside of 'main', at
least for me. The namespace always is generated, but perhaps this
changes the ordering in the DWARF.
When inside_main_func looks up the main symbol, it finds the namespace
symbol rather than the function. (I filed a bug about fixing gdb's
symbol tables -- long overdue.)
Meanwhile, as I think it's important to fix this crash sooner rather
than later, this patch changes inside_main_func to check that the
symbol that is found is LOC_BLOCK. This perhaps should have been done
in the first place, anyway.

Some systems may install binutils headers into a system location
(e.g. /usr/local/include on FreeBSD) which may also include headers
for other external packages used by GDB such as zlib or zstd. If a
system include path such as /usr/local/include is added before local
include paths to directories within a clone or release tarball, then
headers from the external binutils package are used which can result
in build failures if the external binutils package is out of sync with
the version of GDB being built.
To fix, sort the include paths in INTERNAL_CFLAGS_BASE to add CFLAGS
for "local" componenets before external components.

This commit changes gdb/version.in to 13.1.90.DATE-git.
This commit also makes the following changes in gdb/testsuite:
* gdb.base/default.exp: Change $_gdb_minor to 2.
The new DWARF indexer broke "start" for some languages.
For D, it is broken because, while the code in cooked_index_shard::add
specifically excludes Ada, it fails to exclude D. This means that the
C "main" will be detected as "main" here -- whereas what is intended
is for the code in find_main_name to use d_main_name to find the name.
The Rust compiler, on the other hand, uses DW_AT_main_subprogram.
However, the code in dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard fails to create a
fully-qualified name, so the name always ends up as plain "main".
For D and Ada, a very simple approach suffices: remove the check
against "main" from cooked_index_shard::add. This also has the
benefit of slightly speeding up DWARF indexing. I assume this
approach will work for Pascal and Modula-2 as well, but I don't have a
way to test those at present.
For Rust, though, this is not sufficient. And, computing the
fully-qualified name in dwarf2_build_psymtabs_hard will crash, because
cooked_index_entry::full_name uses the canonical name -- and that is
not computed until after canonicalization.
However, we don't want to wait for canonicalization to be done before
computing the main name. That would remove any benefit from doing
canonicalization is the background.
This patch solves this dilemma by noticing that languages using
DW_AT_main_subprogram are, currently, disjoint from languages
requiring canonicalization. Because of this, we can add a parameter
to full_name to let us avoid crashes, slowdowns, and races here.
This is kind of tricky and ugly, so I've tried to comment it
sufficiently.
While doing this, I had to change gdb.dwarf2/main-subprogram.exp. A
different possibility here would be to ignore the canonicalization
needs of C in this situation, because those only affect certain types.
However, I chose this approach because the test case is artificial
anyhow.
A long time ago, in an earlier threading attempt, I changed the global
current_language to be a function (hidden behind a macro) to let us
attempt lazily computing the current language. Perhaps this approach
could still be made to work. However, that also seemed rather tricky,
more so than this patch.

PR build/30108 concerns building gdb documentation with
--with-sytem-readline. If the in-tree readline directory is
missing, though, the docs will fail to build:
make[4]: Entering directory '/home/keiths/work/readline-doc-issue/linux/gdb/doc'
make[4]: *** No rule to make target '../../../src/gdb/doc/../../readline/readline/doc/rluser.texi', needed by 'gdb.info'. Stop.
The listed file (and hsuser.texi) are conditionally included by gdb.texinfo.
When system readline is used, gdb/configure.ac will leave
READLINE_TEXI_INCFLAGS empty, causing doc/Makefile.in to output a line to
$BUILD/doc/GDBvn.texi with "@set SYSTEM_READLINE". This surpresses the
inclusion of the missing files. They are not needed or used in this
scenario.
However, GDB_DOC_SOURCE_INCLUDES always lists these two files as dependencies,
thus provoking the build error whenever readline/ is missing.
This patch fixes this by creating (essentially) a conditional setting of the
dependencies to be included from readline.

allocafail.sh from being removed when running 'make clean'.

This patch resolves the performance issue reported in pr/29738 by
caching the values for the stack pointers for the inner frame. By
doing so, the impact can be reduced to checking the state and
returning the appropriate value.

When there is no dwarf2 data for a register, a function can be called
to provide the value of this register. In some situations, it might
not be trivial to determine the value to return and it would cause a
performance bottleneck to do the computation each time.
This patch allows the called function to have a "cache" object that it
can use to store some metadata between calls to reduce the performance
impact of the complex logic.
The cache object is unique for each function and frame, so if there are
more than one function pointer stored in the dwarf2_frame_cache->reg
array, then the appropriate pointer will be supplied (the type is not
known by the dwarf2 implementation).
dwarf2_frame_get_fn_data can be used to retrieve the function unique
cache object.
dwarf2_frame_allocate_fn_data can be used to allocate and retrieve the
function unique cache object.

Simon pointed out that the cooked index template-matching patch
introduced a failure in libstdc++ debug mode. In particular, the new
code violates the assumption of std::lower_bound and std::upper_bound
that the range is sorted with respect to the comparison.
When I first debugged this, I thought the problem was unfixable as-is
and that a second layer of filtering would have to be done. However,
on irc, Simon pointed out that it could perhaps be solved if the
comparison function were assured that one operand always came from the
index, with the other always being the search string.
This patch implements this idea.
First, a new mode is introduced: a sorting mode for
cooked_index_entry::compare. In this mode, strings are compared
case-insensitively, but we're careful to always sort '<' before any
other printable character. This way, two names like "func" and
"func<param>" will be sorted next to each other -- i.e., "func1" will
not be seen between them. This is important when searching.
Second, the compare function is changed to work in a strcmp-like way.
This makes it easier to test and (IMO) understand.
Third, the compare function is modified so that in non-sorting modes,
the index entry is always the first argument. This allows consistency
in compares.
I regression tested this in libstdc++ debug mode on x86-64 Fedora 36.
It fixes the crash that Simon saw.
This is v2. I believe it addresses the review comments, except for
the 'enum class' change, as I mentioned in email on the list.

PR c++/29896 points out a regression in the new DWARF reader. It does
not properly handle a case like "break fn", where "fn" is a template
function.
This happens because the new index uses strncasecmp to compare.
However, to make this work correctly, we need a custom function that
ignores template parameters.
This patch adds a custom comparison function and fixes the bug. A new
test case is included.

I was briefly confused by the hash_entry and eq_entry functions in the
cooked index. They are only needed in a single method, and that
method already has a couple of local lambdas for a different hash
table. So, it seemed cleaner to move these there as well.

I found that parallel_for_each would submit empty tasks to the thread
pool. For example, this can happen if the number of tasks is smaller
than the number of available threads. In the DWARF reader, this
resulted in the cooked index containing empty sub-indices. This patch
arranges to instead shrink the result vector and process the trailing
entries in the calling thread.

GCC recently added support for the Windows thread model, enabling
libstdc++ to support Windows natively. However, this supporrt
requires a version of Windows later than the minimum version that is
supported by GDB.
PR build/29966 points out that the GDB configure test for std::thread
does not work in this situation, because _WIN32_WINNT is not defined
in test program, and so <thread> seems to be fine.
This patch is an attempt to fix the problem, by using the same setting
for _WIN32_WINNT at configure time as is used at build time.
I don't have access to one of the older systems so I don't think I can
truly test this. I did do a mingw cross build, though. I'm going to
ask the bug reporter to test it.

With a simple test-case:

char *p = "a";
int main (void) {
return strlen (p);
}
$ gcc -g test.c
...
we run into this segfault:
...
$ gdb -q -batch a.out -ex start -ex "p strlen (p)"
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x1151: file test.c, line 4.
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:4

...
The strlen is an ifunc, and consequently during the call to
call_function_by_hand_dummy for "p strlen (p)" another call
to call_function_by_hand_dummy is used to resolve the ifunc.
This invalidates the get_current_frame () result in the outer call.
Fix this by using prepare_reinflate and reinflate.

Commit b5661ff2 ("gdb: fix possible use-after-free when
executing commands") used lookup_cmd_exact () to lookup
command again after its execution to avoid possible
use-after-free error.
However this change broke test gdb.base/define.exp which
defines a post-hook for subcommand ("target testsuite").
In this case, lookup_cmd_exact () returned NULL because
there's no command 'testsuite' in top-level commands.
This commit fixes this case by looking up the command again
using the original command line via lookup_cmd ().
