Lift DWARF unwinder restriction in dwarf2-frame.c::dwarf2_frame_cfa
GDB is currently broken on all SPARC targets when using GCC 4.9.
When trying to print any local variable:
(gdb) p x
can't compute CFA for this frame
This is related to the fact that the compiler now generates DWARF 4
debugging info by default, and in particular that it now emits
DW_OP_call_frame_cfa, which triggers a limitation in dwarf2_frame_cfa:
/* This restriction could be lifted if other unwinders are known to
compute the frame base in a way compatible with the DWARF
unwinder. */
if (!frame_unwinder_is (this_frame, &dwarf2_frame_unwind)
&& !frame_unwinder_is (this_frame, &dwarf2_tailcall_frame_unwind))
error (_("can't compute CFA for this frame"));
We couldn't append the dwarf2 unwinder to all SPARC targets because
it does not work properly with StackGhost:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-07/msg00012.html
We also later discovered that using the DWARF2 unwinder means
using it for computing the function's return address, which
is buggy when it comes to functions returning a struct (where
the return address is saved-pc+12 instead of saved-pc+8).
This is because GCC is emitting the info about the return address
as %o7/%i7 instead of the actual return address. For functions
that have debugging info, we compensate by looking at the function's
return type and add the extra +4, but for function without debug
info, we're stuck.
EricB and I twisted the issue in all the directions we could think of,
and unfortunately couldn't find a way to make it work without
introduction one regression or another.
But, stepping back a little, just removing the restriction seems to work
well for us on all both sparc-elf and {sparc,sparc64}-solaris.
After reviewing the previous discussions about this test, I could
not figure out whether some unwinders were already known to have
incompatible CFAs or if the concern was purely theoretical:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-06/msg00191.html

At the moment, we took the approach of trying it out, and see what
happens...

the "compile" command
This final patch adds the new "compile" command and subcommands, and
all the machinery needed to make it work.
A shared library supplied by gcc is used for all communications with
gcc. Types and most aspects of symbols are provided directly by gdb
to the compiler using this library.
gdb provides some information about the user's code using plain text.
Macros are emitted this way, and DWARF location expressions (and
bounds for VLA) are compiled to C code.
This hybrid approach was taken because, on the one hand, it is better
to provide global declarations and such on demand; but on the other
hand, for local variables, translating DWARF location expressions to C
was much simpler than exporting a full compiler API to gdb -- the same
result, only easier to implement, understand, and debug.
In the ordinary mode, the user's expression is wrapped in a dummy
function. After compilation, gdb inserts the resulting object code
into the inferior, then calls this function.
Access to local variables is provided by noting which registers are
used by location expressions, and passing a structure of register
values into the function. Writes to registers are supported by
copying out these values after the function returns.
This approach was taken so that we could eventually implement other
more interesting features based on this same infrastructure; for
example, we're planning to investigate inferior-side breakpoint
conditions.

add gnu_triplet_regexp gdbarch method
gdb has to inform libcc1.so of the target being used, so that the
correct compiler can be invoked. The compiler is invoked using the
GNU configury triplet prefix, e.g., "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc".
In order for this to work we need to map the gdbarch to the GNU
configury triplet arch. In most cases these are identical; however,
the x86 family poses some problems, as the BFD arch names are quite
different from the GNU triplet names. So, we introduce a new gdbarch
method for this. A regular expression is used because there are
various valid values for the arch prefix in the triplet.
This patch also updates the osabi code to associate a regular
expression with the OS ABI. I have only added a concrete value for

This patch adds some files that define the interface exported by this

which the gdb- and gcc-sides communicate.
These files will be kept in sync between gcc and gdb like much of

The exported API has been intentionally kept very simple. In
particular only a single function is exported from the gdb-side
library; symbol visibility is used to hide everything else. This
exported symbol is a function which is called to return a structure
holding function pointers that gdb then uses. This structure is
versioned so that changes can be made without necessarily requiring a
simultaneous gdb upgrade.
Note that the C compiler API is broken out separately. This lets us
extend it to other GCC front ends as desired. We plan to investigate

MIPS: Keep the ISA bit in compressed code addresses
1. Background information
The MIPS architecture, as originally designed and implemented in
mid-1980s has a uniform instruction word size that is 4 bytes, naturally
aligned. As such all MIPS instructions are located at addresses that
have their bits #1 and #0 set to zeroes, and any attempt to execute an
instruction from an address that has any of the two bits set to one
causes an address error exception. This may for example happen when a
jump-register instruction is executed whose register value used as the
jump target has any of these bits set.
Then in mid 1990s LSI sought a way to improve code density for their
TinyRISC family of MIPS cores and invented an alternatively encoded
instruction set in a joint effort with MIPS Technologies (then a
subsidiary of SGI). The new instruction set has been named the MIPS16
ASE (Application-Specific Extension) and uses a variable instruction
word size, which is 2 bytes (as the name of the ASE suggests) for most,
but there are a couple of exceptions that take 4 bytes, and then most of
the 2-byte instructions can be treated with a 2-byte extension prefix to
expand the range of the immediate operands used.
As a result instructions are no longer 4-byte aligned, instead they are
aligned to a multiple of 2. That left the bit #0 still unused for code
references, be it for the standard MIPS (i.e. as originally invented) or
for the MIPS16 instruction set, and based on that observation a clever
trick was invented that on one hand allowed the processor to be
seamlessly switched between the two instruction sets at any time at the
run time while on the other avoided the introduction of any special
control register to do that.
So it is the bit #0 of the instruction address that was chosen as the
selector and named the ISA bit. Any instruction executed at an even
address is interpreted as a standard MIPS instruction (the address still
has to have its bit #1 clear), any instruction executed at an odd
address is interpreted as a MIPS16 instruction.
To switch between modes ordinary jump instructions are used, such as
used for function calls and returns, specifically the bit #0 of the
source register used in jump-register instructions selects the execution
(ISA) mode for the following piece of code to be interpreted in.
Additionally new jump-immediate instructions were added that flipped the
ISA bit to select the opposite mode upon execution. They were
considered necessary to avoid the need to make register jumps in all
cases as the original jump-immediate instructions provided no way to
change the bit #0 at all.
This was all important for cases where standard MIPS and MIPS16 code had
to be mixed, either for compatibility with the existing binary code base
or to access resources not reachable from MIPS16 code (the MIPS16
instruction set only provides access to general-purpose registers, and
not for example floating-point unit registers or privileged coprocessor
0 registers) -- pieces of code in the opposite mode can be executed as
ordinary subroutine calls.
A similar approach has been more recently adopted for the MIPS16
replacement instruction set defined as the so called microMIPS ASE.
This is another instruction set encoding introduced to the MIPS
architecture. Just like the MIPS16 ASE, the microMIPS instruction set
uses a variable-length encoding, where each instruction takes a multiple
of 2 bytes. The ISA bit has been reused and for microMIPS-capable
processors selects between the standard MIPS and the microMIPS mode
instead.
2. Statement of the problem
To put it shortly, MIPS16 and microMIPS code pointers used by GDB are
different to these observed at the run time. This results in the same
expressions being evaluated producing different results in GDB and in
the program being debugged. Obviously it's the results obtained at the
run time that are correct (they define how the program behaves) and
therefore by definition the results obtained in GDB are incorrect.
A bit longer description will record that obviously at the run time the
ISA bit has to be set correctly (refer to background information above
if unsure why so) or the program will not run as expected. This is
recorded in all the executable file structures used at the run time: the
dynamic symbol table (but not always the static one!), the GOT, and
obviously in all the addresses embedded in code or data of the program
itself, calculated by applying the appropriate relocations at the static
link time.
While a program is being processed by GDB, the ISA bit is stripped off
from any code addresses, presumably to make them the same as the
respective raw memory byte address used by the processor to access the
instruction in the instruction fetch access cycle. This stripping is
actually performed outside GDB proper, in BFD, specifically
_bfd_mips_elf_symbol_processing (elfxx-mips.c, see the piece of code at
the very bottom of that function, starting with an: "If this is an
odd-valued function symbol, assume it's a MIPS16 or microMIPS one."
comment).
This function is also responsible for symbol table dumps made by
`objdump' too, so you'll never see the ISA bit reported there by that
tool, you need to use `readelf'.
This is however unlike what is ever done at the run time, the ISA bit
once present is never stripped off, for example a cast like this:
(short *) main
will not strip the ISA bit off and if the resulting pointer is intended
to be used to access instructions as data, for example for software
instruction decoding (like for fault recovery or emulation in a signal
handler) or for self-modifying code then the bit still has to be
stripped off by an explicit AND operation.
This is probably best illustrated with a simple real program example.
Let's consider the following simple program:
$ cat foobar.c
int __attribute__ ((mips16)) foo (void)
{
return 1;
}
int __attribute__ ((mips16)) bar (void)
{
return 2;
}
int __attribute__ ((nomips16)) foo32 (void)
{
return 3;
}
int (*foo32p) (void) = foo32;
int (*foop) (void) = foo;
int fooi = (int) foo;
int
main (void)
{
return foop ();
}
$
This is plain C with no odd tricks, except from the instruction mode
attributes. They are not necessary to trigger this problem, I just put
them here so that the program can be contained in a single source file
and to make it obvious which function is MIPS16 code and which is not.
Let's try it with Linux, so that everyone can repeat this experiment:
$ mips-linux-gnu-gcc -mips16 -g -O2 -o foobar foobar.c
$
Let's have a look at some interesting symbols:
$ mips-linux-gnu-readelf -s foobar | egrep 'table|foo|bar'
Symbol table '.dynsym' contains 7 entries:
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 95 entries:
55:
00000000 0 FILE LOCAL DEFAULT ABS foobar.c
66:
0040068c 4 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT [MIPS16] 12 bar
68:
00410848 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 foo32p
70:
00410844 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 foop
78:
00400684 8 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 foo32
80:
00400680 4 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT [MIPS16] 12 foo
88:
00410840 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 fooi
$
Hmm, no sight of the ISA bit, but notice how foo and bar (but not
foo32!) have been marked as MIPS16 functions (ELF symbol structure's
`st_other' field is used for that).
So let's try to run and poke at this program with GDB. I'll be using a
native system for simplicity (I'll be using ellipses here and there to
remove unrelated clutter):
$ ./foobar
$ echo $?
1
$
So far, so good.
$ gdb ./foobar
[...]
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400490: file foobar.c, line 23.
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../foobar
Breakpoint 1, main () at foobar.c:23
23 return foop ();
(gdb)
Yay, it worked! OK, so let's poke at it:
(gdb) print main
$1 = {int (void)} 0x400490 <main>
(gdb) print foo32
$2 = {int (void)} 0x400684 <foo32>
(gdb) print foo32p
$3 = (int (*)(void)) 0x400684 <foo32>
(gdb) print bar
$4 = {int (void)} 0x40068c <bar>
(gdb) print foo
$5 = {int (void)} 0x400680 <foo>
(gdb) print foop
$6 = (int (*)(void)) 0x400681 <foo>
(gdb)
A-ha! Here's the difference and finally the ISA bit!
(gdb) print /x fooi
$7 = 0x400681
(gdb) p/x $pc
p/x $pc
$8 = 0x400491
(gdb)
And here as well...
(gdb) advance foo

(gdb) disassemble

Run till exit from #0 foo () at foobar.c:4
main () at foobar.c:24
24 }
Value returned is $9 = 1
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
[Inferior 1 (process 14103) exited with code 01]
(gdb)
So let's be a bit inquisitive...
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../foobar
Breakpoint 1, main () at foobar.c:23
23 return foop ();
(gdb)
Actually we do not like to run foo here at all. Let's run bar instead!
(gdb) set foop = bar
(gdb) print foop
$10 = (int (*)(void)) 0x40068c <bar>
(gdb)
Hmm, no ISA bit. Is it going to work?
(gdb) advance bar
bar () at foobar.c:9
9 }
(gdb) p/x $pc
$11 = 0x40068c
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function bar:

(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 bar () at foobar.c:9
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
bar () at foobar.c:9

(gdb)
Oops!
(gdb) p/x $pc
$12 = 0x40068c
(gdb)
We're still there!
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Program terminated with signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb)
So let's try something else:
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../foobar
Breakpoint 1, main () at foobar.c:23
23 return foop ();
(gdb) set foop = foo
(gdb) advance foo
foo () at foobar.c:4
4 }
(gdb) disassemble

0x00400682 <+2>: li v0,1
End of assembler dump.
(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 foo () at foobar.c:4
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
foo () at foobar.c:4
4 }
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Program terminated with signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb)
The same problem!
(gdb) run
Starting program:
/net/build2-lucid-cs/scratch/macro/mips-linux-fsf-gcc/isa-bit/foobar
Breakpoint 1, main () at foobar.c:23
23 return foop ();
(gdb) set foop = foo32
(gdb) advance foo32
foo32 () at foobar.c:14
14 }
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function foo32:

End of assembler dump.
(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 foo32 () at foobar.c:14
main () at foobar.c:24
24 }
Value returned is $14 = 3
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
[Inferior 1 (process 14113) exited with code 03]
(gdb)
That did work though, so it's the ISA bit only!
(gdb) quit
Enough!
That's the tip of the iceberg only though. So let's rebuild the
executable with some dynamic symbols:
$ mips-linux-gnu-gcc -mips16 -Wl,--export-dynamic -g -O2 -o foobar-dyn foobar.c
$ mips-linux-gnu-readelf -s foobar-dyn | egrep 'table|foo|bar'
Symbol table '.dynsym' contains 32 entries:
6:
004009cd 4 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 bar
8:
00410b88 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 foo32p
9:
00410b84 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 foop
15:
004009c4 8 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 foo32
17:
004009c1 4 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 foo
25:
00410b80 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 fooi
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 95 entries:
55:

69:

71:

72:

81:
004009c1 4 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 foo
89:
00410b80 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 fooi
$
OK, now the ISA bit is there for a change, but the MIPS16 `st_other'
attribute gone, hmm... What does `objdump' do then:
$ mips-linux-gnu-objdump -Tt foobar-dyn | egrep 'SYMBOL|foo|bar'

$
Hmm, the attribute (0xf0, printed raw) is back, and the ISA bit gone
again.

-- see that "Advance PC by constant 17" there? It clears the ISA bit,
however code at 0x19646 is not standard MIPS code at all. For some
reason the constant is always 17, I've never seen DW_LNS_const_add_pc
used with any other value -- is that a binutils bug or what?
3. Solution:
I think we should retain the value of the ISA bit in code references,
that is effectively treat them as cookies as they indeed are (although
trivially calculated) rather than raw memory byte addresses.
In a perfect world both the static symbol table and the respective
DWARF-2 records should be fixed to include the ISA bit in all the cases.
I think however that this is infeasible.
All the uses of `_bfd_mips_elf_symbol_processing' can not necessarily be
tracked down. This function is used by `elf_slurp_symbol_table' that in
turn is used by `bfd_canonicalize_symtab' and
`bfd_canonicalize_dynamic_symtab', which are public interfaces.
Similarly DWARF-2 records are used outside GDB, one notable if a bit
questionable is the exception unwinder (libgcc/unwind-dw2.c) -- I have
identified at least bits in `execute_cfa_program' and
`uw_frame_state_for', both around the calls to `_Unwind_IsSignalFrame',
that would need an update as they effectively flip the ISA bit freely;
see also the comment about MASK_RETURN_ADDR in gcc/config/mips/mips.h.
But there may be more places. Any change in how DWARF-2 records are
produced would require an update there and would cause compatibility
problems with libgcc.a binaries already distributed; given that this is
a static library a complex change involving function renames would
likely be required.
I propose therefore to accept the existing inconsistencies and deal with
them entirely within GDB. I have figured out that the ISA bit lost in
various places can still be recovered as long as we have symbol
information -- that'll have the `st_other' attribute correctly set to
one of standard MIPS/MIPS16/microMIPS encoding.
Here's the resulting change. It adds a couple of new `gdbarch' hooks,
one to update symbol information with the ISA bit lost in
`_bfd_mips_elf_symbol_processing', and two other ones to adjust DWARF-2
records as they're processed. The ISA bit is set in each address
handled according to information retrieved from the symbol table for the
symbol spanning the address if any; limits are adjusted based on the
address they point to related to the respective base address.
Additionally minimal symbol information has to be adjusted accordingly
in its gdbarch hook.
With these changes in place some complications with ISA bit juggling in
the PC that never fully worked can be removed from the MIPS backend.
Conversely, the generic dynamic linker event special breakpoint symbol
handler has to be updated to call the minimal symbol gdbarch hook to
record that the symbol is a MIPS16 or microMIPS address if applicable or
the breakpoint will be set at the wrong address and either fail to work
or cause SIGTRAPs (this is because the symbol is handled early on and
bypasses regular symbol processing).
4. Results obtained
The change fixes the example above -- to repeat only the crucial steps:
(gdb) break main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400491: file foobar.c, line 23.
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../foobar
Breakpoint 1, main () at foobar.c:23
23 return foop ();
(gdb) print foo
$1 = {int (void)} 0x400681 <foo>
(gdb) set foop = bar
(gdb) advance bar
bar () at foobar.c:9
9 }
(gdb) disassemble
Dump of assembler code for function bar:
=> 0x0040068d <+0>: jr ra
0x0040068f <+2>: li v0,2
End of assembler dump.
(gdb) finish
Run till exit from #0 bar () at foobar.c:9
main () at foobar.c:24
24 }
Value returned is $2 = 2
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
[Inferior 1 (process 14128) exited with code 02]
(gdb)
-- excellent!
The change removes about 90 failures per MIPS16 multilib in mips-sde-elf
testing too, results for MIPS16 are now similar to that for standard
MIPS; microMIPS results are a bit worse because of host-I/O problems in
QEMU used instead of MIPSsim for microMIPS testing only:

Copy relocations against protected symbols
Copy relocs are used in a scheme to avoid dynamic text relocations in
non-PIC executables that refer to variables defined in shared

the executable, with a copy reloc copying the initial value, then have
both the executable and shared library refer to the executable copy.

Improve arm_skip_prologue by using arm_analyze_prologue
Hi,
I see many fails in dw2-dir-file-name.exp on arm target when test
case is compiled with -marm, however, these fails are disappeared when
test case is compiled with -mthumb.
The difference of pass and fail shown below is that "0x000085d4 in" isn't
printed out, but test case expects to see it.
-Breakpoint 2, compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename () at tmp-dw2-dir-file-name.c:999^M
-(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.exp: compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename: continue to breakpoint: compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename
+Breakpoint 2, 0x000085d4 in compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename () at tmp-dw2-dir-file-name.c:999^M
+(gdb) PASS: gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.exp: compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename: continue to breakpoint: compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename
This difference is caused by setting breakpoint at the first instruction
in the function (actually, the first instruction in prologue, at [1]),
so that frame_show_address returns false, and print_frame doesn't print the
address.
0x00008620 <+0>: push {r11} ; (str r11, [sp, #-4]!) <--[1]
0x00008624 <+4>: add r11, sp, #0

0x00008634 <+20>: ldr r2, [pc, #12] ; 0x8648 <compdir_missing__ldir_missing__file_basename+40>
Then, it must be the arm_skip_prologue's fault that unable to skip
instructions in prologue. At the end of arm_skip_prologue, it matches
several instructions, such as "str r(0123),[r11,#-nn]" and
"str r(0123),[sp,#nn]", but "push {r11}" isn't handled.
These instruction matching code in arm_skip_prologue, which can be regarded
as leftover of development for many years, should be merged to
arm_analyze_prologue and use arm_analyze_prologue in arm_skip_prologue.
Here is the something like the history of arm_{skip,scan,analyze}_prologue.
Around 2002, there are arm_skip_prologue and arm_scan_prologue, but code are
duplicated to some extent. When match an instruction, both functions should
be modified, for example in Michael Snyder's patch
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2002-05/msg00205.html and Michael
expressed the willingness to merge both into one. Daniel added code call
thumb_analyze_prologue in arm_skip_prologue in 2006, but didn't handle its
counterpart arm_analyze_prologue, which is added in 2010
<https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-03/msg00820.html>
however, the instructions matching at the bottom of arm_skip_prologue wasn't
cleaned up. This patch is to merge them into arm_analyze_prologue.

Only leave dprintf inserted if it is marked as persistent (PR breakpoints/17012)
On Linux native, if dprintfs are inserted when detaching, they are left
in the inferior which causes it to crash from a SIGTRAP. It also happens
with dprintfs on remote targets, when set disconnected-dprintf is off.
The rationale of the line modified by the patch was to leave dprintfs
inserted in order to support disconnected dprintfs. However, not all
dprintfs are persistent. Also, there's no reason other kinds of
breakpoints can't be persistent either. So this replaces the bp_dprintf
check with a check on whether the location is persistent.
bl->target_info.persist will be 1 only if disconnected-dprintf is on and
we are debugging a remote target. On native, it will always be 0,
regardless of the value of disconnected-dprintf. This makes sense, since
disconnected dprintfs are not supported by the native target.
One issue about the test is that it does not pass when using
--target_board=native-extended-gdbserver, partly due to bug 17302 [1].
One quick hack I tried for this was to add a useless "next" between the
call to getpid() and detach, which avoids the bug. There is still one
case where the test fails, and that is with:
- breakpoint always-inserted on
- dprintf-style agent
- disconnected-dprintf on
What happens is that my detach does not actually detach the process,
because some persistent commands (the disconnected dprintf) is present.
However since gdbserver is ran with --once, when gdb disconnects,
gdbserver goes down and takes with it all the processes it spawned and
that are still under its control (which includes my test process).
When the test checks if the test process is still alive, it obvisouly
fails. Investigating about that led me to ask a question on the ML [2]
about the behavior of detach.

Restore terminal state in mi_thread_exit (PR gdb/17627)
When a thread exits, the terminal is left in mode "terminal_is_ours"
while the target executes. This patch fixes that.
We need to manually restore the terminal setting in this particular
observer. In the case of the other MI observers that call
target_terminal_ours, gdb will end up resuming the inferior later in the
execution and call target_terminal_inferior. In the case of the thread
exit event, we still need to call target_terminal_ours to be able to
print something, but there is nothing that gdb will need to resume after
that. We therefore need to call target_terminal_inferior ourselves.

Don't return DW_AT_name for function name in C++
DW_AT_name for functions typically just contains the base function

be possible to extract all these from the DWARF, but at a considerable
complication of the parser in dwarf2.c, and then you'd need to mangle
it all together. Much simpler is to look up the actual symbol. This

Unify lookup_symbol_in_objfile_symtabs
That's right, block_lookup_symbol_primary()'s additional requirement over
block_lookup_symbol() is:
Function is useful if one iterates all global/static blocks of an
objfile.
Which is satisfied both in lookup_symbol_in_objfile_symtabs() and in
lookup_global_symbol_from_objfile() thanks to their's ALL_OBJFILE_COMPUNITS.
In fact after reverting that
ba715d7fe49c8a59660fbd571b935b29eb7cfbdb above
the lines of code were exactly the same.
So instead of accelerating both lookup_symbol_in_objfile_symtabs() and
lookup_global_symbol_from_objfile() I just accelerated
lookup_symbol_in_objfile_symtabs() and I am proposing to reuse
lookup_symbol_in_objfile_symtabs() in lookup_global_symbol_from_objfile()
instead. In fact such unification would already save some lines of code even

This patch is to remove the third argument of gdb_remote_download, so
that gdb_remote_download can return the correct location.
Further, these tests only copy .scm files to a different name. From what
I can tell from the comments, looks we do this to avoid clobbering file
in in-tree build. However, if source and dest of copy are the same, the
operation is no-op. So it makes few sense to copy .scm files to a
different names. I tried in-tree build/test with this patch, test

Accelerate lookup_symbol_aux_objfile 85x
During debugging I get 10-30 seconds for a response to simple commands like:
(gdb) print vectorvar.size()
With this patch the performance gets to 1-2 seconds which is somehow
acceptable. The problem is that dwarf2_gdb_index_functions.lookup_symbol
(quick_symbol_functions::lookup_symbol) may return (and returns) NULL even for
symbols which are present in .gdb_index but which can be found in already
expanded symtab. But searching in the already expanded symtabs is just too
slow when there are 400000+ expanded symtabs. There would be needed some
single global hash table for each objfile so that one does not have to iterate
all symtabs. Which .gdb_index could perfectly serve for, just its
lookup_symbol() would need to return authoritative yes/no answers.
Even after such fix these two simple patches are useful for example for
non-.gdb_index files.
One can reproduce the slugging interactive GDB performance with:
#include <string>
using namespace std;
string var;
class C {
public:
void m() {}
};
int main() {
C c;
c.m();
return 0;

implement specific handling for invalid code just to satisfy test
cases that assume too much about the target).

MIPS: Add support for microMIPS Linux signal trampolines
The necessity for this change has been revealed in the course of
investigation related to proposed changes in the treatment of the ISA
bit encoded in function symbols on the MIPS target. This change adds
support for Linux signal trampolines encoded with the microMIPS
instruction set. Such trampolines are used by the Linux kernel if
compiled as a microMIPS binary (even if the binary run/debugged itself
contains no microMIPS code at all).
To see if we need to check whether the execution mode selected matches
the given trampoline I have checked what the bit patterns of all the
trampoline sequences decode to in the opposite instruction set. This
produced useless or at least unusual code in most cases, for example:
microMIPS/EB, o32 sigreturn, decoded as MIPS code:
30401017 andi zero,v0,0x1017
00008b7c dsll32 s1,zero,0xd
MIPS/EL, o32 sigreturn, decoded as microMIPS code:
1017 2402 addi zero,s7,9218
000c 0000 sll zero,t0,0x0
However in some corner cases reasonable code can mimic a trampoline, for
example:
MIPS/EB, n32 rt_sigreturn, decoded as microMIPS code:
2402 sll s0,s0,1
1843 0000 sb v0,0(v1)
000c 0f3c jr t0
-- here the first instruction is a 16-bit one, making things nastier
even as there are some other microMIPS instructions whose first 16-bit
halfword is 0x000c and therefore matches this whole trampoline pattern.
To overcome this problem I have decided the signal trampoline unwinder
has to ask the platform backend whether it can apply a given trampoline
pattern to the code location being concerned or not. Anticipating the
acceptance of the ISA bit proposal I decided the handler not to merely
be a predicate, but also to be able to provide an adjusted PC if
required. I decided that returning zero will mean that the trampoline
pattern is not applicable and any other value is the adjusted PC to use;
a handler may return the value requested if the trampoline pattern and
the PC requested as-is are both accepted.
This changes the semantics of the trampoline unwinder a bit in that the
zero PC now has a special value. I think this should be safe as a NULL
pointer is generally supposed to be invalid.
