gdb: Improve syscall entry/return tracking on Linux
The existing logic was simply to flip syscall entry/return state when a
syscall trap was seen, and even then only with active 'catch syscall'.
That can get out of sync if 'catch syscall' is toggled at odd times.
This patch updates the entry/return state for all syscall traps,
regardless of catching state, and also updates known syscall state for
other kinds of traps. Almost all PTRACE_EVENT stops are delivered from
the middle of a syscall, so this can act like an entry. Every other
kind of ptrace stop is only delivered outside of syscall event pairs, so
marking them ignored ensures the next syscall trap looks like an entry.
Three new test scenarios are added to catch-syscall.exp:
- Disable 'catch syscall' from an entry to deliberately miss the return
event, then re-enable to make sure a new entry is recognized.
- Enable 'catch syscall' for the first time from a vfork event, which is
a PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK in the middle of the syscall. Make sure the next
syscall event is recognized as the return.
- Make sure entry and return are recognized for an ENOSYS syscall. This
is to defeat a common x86 hack that uses the pre-filled ENOSYS return
value as a sign of being on the entry side.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-10-19 Josh Stone <jistone@redhat.com>
* linux-nat.c (linux_handle_syscall_trap): Always update entry/
return state, even when not actively catching syscalls at all.
(linux_handle_extended_wait): Mark syscall_state like an entry.
(wait_lwp): Set syscall_state ignored for other traps.
(linux_nat_filter_event): Likewise.
