[gdb/symtab] Fix language of duplicate static minimal symbol
Consider a test-case with source files msym.c:
...
static int foo (void) { return 1; }
...
and msym_main.c:
...
static int foo (void) { return 2; }
int main (void) { return 0; }
..
compiled as c++ with minimal symbols:
...
$ g++ msym_main.c msym.c
...
With objdump -x we find the two foo symbols prefixed with their corresponding
files in the symbol table:
...
0000000000000000 l df *ABS*
0000000000000000 msym_main.c

00000000004004dd l F .text
000000000000000b _ZL3foov
...
However, when we use gdb to print info on foo, both foos are listed, but we
get one symbol mangled and one symbol demangled:
...
$ gdb ./a.out -batch -ex "info func foo"

Non-debugging symbols:
0x00000000004004c7 foo()
0x00000000004004dd _ZL3foov

During minimal symbol reading symbol_set_names is called for each symbol.
First, it's called with foo from msym.c, an entry is created in
per_bfd->demangled_names_hash and symbol_find_demangled_name is called, which
has the side effect of setting the language of the symbol to language_cplus.
Then, it's called with foo from msym_main.c. Since
per_bfd->demangled_names_hash already has an entry for that name,
symbol_find_demangled_name is not called, and the language of the symbol
remains language_auto.
Fix this by doing the symbol_find_demangled_name call unconditionally.

(AArch64) wrong value returned by "finish" for HFA
Consider the gdb.ada/array_return.exp testcase, and in particular,

type Small_Float_Vector is array (1 .. 2) of Float;
function Create_Small_Float_Vector return Small_Float_Vector is
begin

... which declares a type which is an array with 2 floats in it

the return value from that function does not work:
(gdb) fin
Run till exit from #0 pck.create_small_float_vector () at /[...]/pck.adb:15
0x000000000000062c in p () at /[...]/p.adb:11

We expected the value shown to be:
(gdb) fin
Run till exit from #0 pck.create_small_float_vector () at /[...]/pck.adb:15
0x000000000000062c in p () at /[...]/p.adb:11
11 Vector := Create_Small_Float_Vector;
Value returned is $1 = (4.25, 4.25)
Because the return type is an HFA, it is returned via the first two
SIMD registers. However, what happens is that the current implementation
fails to realize that this is an HFA, and therefore fetches the return
value from the wrong location. And the reason why it fails to realize
this is because it thinks that our array has 8 elements (HFAs have
a maximum of 4). Looking at aapcs_is_vfp_call_or_return_candidate_1,
where this is determined, we can easily see why (looks like a thinko):
| case TYPE_CODE_ARRAY:
| [...]
| struct type *target_type = TYPE_TARGET_TYPE (type);
| int count = aapcs_is_vfp_call_or_return_candidate_1
| (target_type, fundamental_type);
|
| if (count == -1)
| return count;
|
!! -> | count *= TYPE_LENGTH (type);
| return count;
Here, we first determine the count for one element of our array,
and so we should then be multiplying that count by the number
of elements in our array (2 in our case). But instead, we multiply it
by the total size (8). As a result, we do not classify the return
type as an HFA, and thus pick the wrong location for fetching
the return value.

gdb/riscv: Handle errors while setting the frame id
When we connect to a remote target one of the first things GDB does is
establish a frame id. If an error is thrown while building this frame
id then GDB will disconnect from the target.
This can mean that, if the user is attempting to connect to a target
that doesn't yet have a program loaded, or the program the user is
going to load onto the target doesn't match what is already loaded, or
the target is just in some undefined state, then the very first
request for a frame id can fail (for example, by trying to load from
an invalid memory address), and GDB will disconnect. It is then
impossible for the user to connect to the target and load a new
program at all.
An example of such a session might look like this:
Reading symbols from ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.arch/riscv-reg-aliases/riscv-reg-aliases...
(gdb) target remote :37191
Remote debugging using :37191

The solution is to handle errors in riscv_frame_this_id, and leave the
this_id variable with its default value, which is the predefined
'outermost' frame.
With this fix in place, connecting to the same target now looks like
this:

Make gold testsuite work with CC and CXX specifying -B
The patch allows the gold testsuite to pass when using something like

of the options that force a particular path to as or ld.

gold's -Bgcctestdir/ option must come before the -B supplied by $CC

using a not-yet-installed gcc, it is necessary to provide a collect-ld

unnecessarily but harmlessly used extra backslash quoting. See
posix shell documentation regarding quoting, or

(Ada/tasking) fix array or string index out of range warning
A recent change in the compiler highlighted a small weakness in
the function reading the contents of the Ada Task Control Block
(ATCB -- the data that allows us to inspect Ada tasks). As a result,
anytime we read it, we started getting some warnings. For instance,
using the gdb.ada/tasks.exp testcase...
$ gnatmake -g foo.adb
$ gdb foo
(gdb) b foo.adb:60

Thread 1 "foo" hit Breakpoint 1, foo () at foo.adb:60

... we can see that the "info tasks" command produces some warnings,
followed by the correct output.

3 658680 1 48 Accept or Select Term task_list(2)
4 65be10 1 48 Accept or Select Term task_list(3)
The problem comes from the fact that read_atcb, the function responsible
for loading the contents of the ATCB, blindly tries to read some data
which is only relevant when a task is waiting for another task on
an entry call. A comment in that code's section gives a hint as to
how the information is meant to be decoded:
/* Let My_ATCB be the Ada task control block of a task calling the
entry of another task; then the Task_Id of the called task is
in My_ATCB.Entry_Calls (My_ATCB.ATC_Nesting_Level).Called_Task. */
What the comment shows is that, to get the Id of the task being called,
one has to go through the entry calls field, which is an array pointer.
Up to now, we were lucky that, for tasks that are _not_ waiting on an
entry call, its ATCB atc_nesting_level used to be set to 1, and so
we were able to silently read some irrelevant data. But a recent change
now causes this field to be zero instead, and this triggers the warning,
since we are now trying to read outside of the array's range (arrays
in Ada often start at index 1, as is the case here).
We avoid this issue by simply only reading that data when the data
is actually known to be relevant (state == Entry_Caller_Sleep).
This, in turn, allows us to simplify a bit the use of the task_info->state
field, where we no longer need to check task the task has a state equal
to Entry_Caller_Sleep before using this field. Indeed, with this new
approach, we now know that, unless task_info->state == Entry_Caller_Sleep,
the state is now guaranteed to be zero. In other words, we no longer set
task_info->called_task to some random value, forcing to check the task's
state first as a way to verify that the data is not random.

A potential dereference of a NULL pointer was introduced if a
DW_TAG_base_type is missing a DW_AT_name attribute.
I have taken this opportunity to fix a slight confusion that existed
in the test also added in the above commit, the test had two C
variables, declared like this:
int var_a = 5;
void *var_ptr = &var_a;
However, the fake DWARF in the test script declared them like this:
void var_a = 5;
void *var_ptr = &var_a;
This wasn't a problem as the test never uses 'var_a' directly, this
only exists so 'var_ptr' can be initialised. However, it seemed worth
fixing.
I've also added a test for a DW_TAG_base_type with a missing
DW_AT_name, as clearly there's not test currently that covers this
(the original patch tested cleanly). I can confirm that the new test
causes GDB to crash before this patch, and passes with this patch.

[gdb] Fix gdb crash when reading core file
Consider the test-case from this patch, compiled with O0.
The executable segfaults, and generates a core dump:
...
$ ./a.out
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
...
When loading the core file, limiting stack size to 4MB, gdb crashes:
...
$ ulimit -s 4096
$ gdb -batch ./a.out core.saved
[New LWP 19379]
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
...
The crash originates here in linux_vsyscall_range_raw, where we call alloca
with phdrs_size == 4194112 (roughly 4MB):
...
phdrs = (Elf_Internal_Phdr *) alloca (phdrs_size);
...
While for this test-case gdb runs fine with the system default stack limit of
8MB, there are cases reported of 12MB phdrs_size where gdb also crashes with
the system default stack limit.
Fix this by using xmalloc instead of alloca, which prevents the crash provided
the stack limit is at least 112kb.

(Ada) fix "error in expression" when using watch -location command
The "watch -l EXPR" command with the language set to Ada currently
fails with the following error:
(gdb) watch -l global_var
Error in expression, near ` 0x000000000062d2d8'.
The error occurs because GDB internally translate the request into
a watchpoint on a different expression: "* (TYPE *) ADDR" where
TYPE and ADDR are the type and the address of the object returned
by the expression's evaluation (resp.). So, in the example above,
global_var being an integer stored at 0x000000000062d2d8, GDB tries
to set a watchpoint on "* (integer *) 0x000000000062d2d8", which
fails, because we try to parse this expression with Ada, when
in fact it is not valid.

arm-pikeos: software single step
On ARM, PikeOS does not support hardware single step, causing various
semi-random errors when trying to next/step over some user code. So
this patch changes this target to use software-single-step instead.
The challenge is that, up to now, the PikeOS target was in all respects
identical to a baremetal target as far as GDB was concerned, meaning
we were using the baremetal osabi for this target too. This is no longer
possible, and we need to introduce a new OSABI variant. Unfortunately,
there isn't anything in the object file that would allow us to
differentiate between the two platforms. So we have to rely on a
heuristic instead, where we look for some known symbols that are
required in a PikeOS application (these symbols are expected to be
defined by the default linker script, and correspond to routines used
to allocate the application stack).
For the long run, the hope is that the stub implementation provided
by PikeOS is enhanced so that it includes vContSupported+ to the
$qSupported query, and then that the reply to the "vCont?" query
only return support for "continue" operations (thus exclusing "step"
operations). We could then use that information to reliably determine
at connection time that the target does not support single-stepping
and therefore automatically turn software single-stepping automatically
based on it.

the mkdtemp call to be compiled on mingw.
We can either put back the HAVE_MKDTEMP ifdef, or import the gnulib
mkdtemp module, which provides the function for mingw. Since the
mkdir_recursive is susceptible to be used on mingw at some point, I
think it would be nice to have it tested on mingw, so I did the latter.
Once built, I tested it on Windows (copied the resulting gdb.exe on a
Windows machine, ran it, and ran "maint selftest mkdir_recursive"). It
failed, because the temporary directory is hardcoded to "/tmp/...". I
therefore added and used a new get_standard_temp_dir function, which

Reading signal handler frame in AIX
In AIX if gdb is debugging an application which has a signal handler
and reaches the signal handler frame, then we need to read the back
chain address from sigcontext saved on the stack, similarly the LR.
As backchain at an offset 0 will be 0, because we will have a
sigconext saved after the minimum stack size. So the correct
backchain will be at an offset after minimum stack and the LR at
an offset 8 will be of the signal millicode address.
If the back chain pointer is NULL and the LR field is in the kernel
segment(ex. 0x00004a14) then we can probably assume we are in a
signal handler.

gdb: Handle ICC's unexpected void return type
I encountered a binary compiled with Intel's C Compiler (ICC) version
14.0.5.212, which seemed to contain some non-standard DWARF.
The DWARF spec (V5 3.3.2) says:
Debugging information entries for C void functions should not have
an attribute for the return type.
However, what I observed in the DWARF from this ICC compiled binary
was this:
...
<0><857>: Abbrev Number: 1 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
<858> DW_AT_comp_dir : (indirect string, offset: 0x48d): /tmp/
<85c> DW_AT_language : 1 (ANSI C)
<85d> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x77c): filename.c
<861> DW_AT_producer : (indirect string, offset: 0x520): Intel(R) C Intel(R) 64 Compiler ...
<865> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x4378d0
<86d> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x4378f0
<875> DW_AT_stmt_list : 0xa37
...
<1><7ea>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<7eb> DW_AT_byte_size : 0
<7ec> DW_AT_encoding : 5 (signed)
<7ed> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x58f): void
...
<1><7f1>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<7f2> DW_AT_decl_line : 268
<7f4> DW_AT_decl_column : 30
<7f5> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<7f6> DW_AT_type : <0x7ea>
<7fa> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<7fb> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x761): function_foo
<7ff> DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x761): function_foo
<803> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x4378a0
<80b> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x4378d0
<813> DW_AT_external : 1
...
So function 'function_foo' has void return type, but still has a
DW_AT_type attribute for a 0 sized type called void.
What was found was that when the 'finish' command was used to leave
'function_foo', GDB would crash.
The problem is that in infcmd.c:print_return_value GDB tries to filter
out void return types, by looking for the TYPE_CODE_VOID, this fails
for the 'void' type as it has code TYPE_CODE_INT and GDB then tries to
print the 'void' type.
This eventually ends in a call to valprint.c:maybe_negate_by_bytes,
however, the len (length) of the value being negated is 0, which is
not detected or expected by this code, and invalid memory accesses
occur, some of which might cause GDB to crash.
The above DWARF was seen on version 14.0.5.212 of ICC.
I have also tested ICC versions 18.0.2.199 and 17.0.7.259, on both of
these versions, the DW_AT_type on the DW_TAG_subprogram has been
removed, bringing ICC inline with the DWARF standard, and with the
DWARF produced by GCC.
I only have limited access to these specific versions of ICC so I am
unable to get more specific details for when the generated DWARF
became non-standard or when it was changed to be more inline with the
DWARF standard.
Further testing revealed additional places where ICC produced 'void'
related DWARF that GDB struggles with. When I compiled code that
contained a function with this signature:
void funcx (void *arg);
on ICC 17/18, I got the following DWARF (notice the void return type
is now gone):
...
<1><32>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<33> DW_AT_decl_line : 2
<34> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<35> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<36> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xc5): funcx
<3a> DW_AT_MIPS_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0xc5): funcx
<3e> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x6dc
<46> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x703
<4e> DW_AT_external : 1
<2><4f>: Abbrev Number: 3 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
<50> DW_AT_decl_line : 2
<51> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<52> DW_AT_type : <0x6a>
<56> DW_AT_name : arg
<5a> DW_AT_location : 2 byte block: 76 70 (DW_OP_breg6 (rbp): -16)
...
<1><6a>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<6b> DW_AT_type : <0x6f>
<1><6f>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<70> DW_AT_byte_size : 0
<71> DW_AT_encoding : 5 (signed)
<72> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xcb): void
...
However, the function argument 'arg' does still reference a 'void'
type. This case doesn't seem as obviously non-standard as the
previous one, but I think that the DWARF standard (V5 5.2) does
suggest that the above is not the recommended approach. If we compare
to the DWARF generated by GCC 7.3.1:
...
<1><68>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_subprogram)
<69> DW_AT_external : 1
<69> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x221): funcx
<6d> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<6e> DW_AT_decl_line : 2
<6f> DW_AT_prototyped : 1
<6f> DW_AT_low_pc : 0x400487
<77> DW_AT_high_pc : 0x22
<7f> DW_AT_frame_base : 1 byte block: 9c (DW_OP_call_frame_cfa)
<81> DW_AT_GNU_all_call_sites: 1
<81> DW_AT_sibling : <0xa0>
<2><85>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
<86> DW_AT_name : arg
<8a> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<8b> DW_AT_decl_line : 2
<8c> DW_AT_type : <0xa0>
<90> DW_AT_location : 2 byte block: 91 58 (DW_OP_fbreg: -40)
...
<1><a0>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
<a1> DW_AT_byte_size : 8
...
Here we see that the DW_TAG_pointer_type doesn't reference any further
type. This also seems out of line with the DWARF standard (which I
think recommends using a DW_TAG_unspecified_type entry), however GDB
does handle the GCC generated DWARF better.
If we look at how GDB handles the DWARF from GCC, then we see this:
(gdb) print *arg
Attempt to dereference a generic pointer.
While on the current HEAD of master dereferencing arg causes undefined
behaviour which will likely crash GDB (for the same reason as was
described above for the 'finish' case). On earlier versions of GDB
the ICC DWARF would cause this:
(gdb) print *arg
$1 = 0
In this patch both the return type, and general variable/parameter
type handling is fixed by transforming the synthetic void entries in
the DWARF, the ones that look like this:
<1><6f>: Abbrev Number: 6 (DW_TAG_base_type)
<70> DW_AT_byte_size : 0
<71> DW_AT_encoding : 5 (signed)
<72> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xcb): void
into GDB's builtin void type. My criteria for performing the fix are:
1. Binary produced by any version of ICC,
2. We're producing an integer type,
3. The size is 0, and
4. The name is "void".
I ignore the signed / unsigned nature of the integer.
Potentially we could drop the ICC detection too, this should be a
reasonably safe transformation to perform, however, I'm generally
pretty nervous when it comes to modifying how the DWARF is parsed so,
for now, I have restricted this to ICC only.
I also added an assertion to maybe_negate_by_bytes. This is nothing
to do with the actual fix, but should detect incorrect use of this
function in the future, without relying on undefined behaviour to
crash GDB.
I added a new test that makes use the of the testsuite's DWARF
generator. As it is tricky to create target independent tests that
pass function parameters using the DWARF generator (as specifying the
argument location is target specific) I have instead made use of a
global variable void*. This still shows the issue.
We already have a predicate in the DWARF parser to detect versions of
ICC prior to 14, however, this issue was spotted on a later version.
As a result I've added a new predicate that is true for any version of
ICC.

[GAS][ARM] Fix ARMv8.1 AdvSIMD testism
This test never used to test the output of objdump as the old 'error-output'
check would exit after verifying the output in stdout and stderr from the

its output to be verified. Assuming the correct disassembly of these

removes the objdump run.

This test has been failing for a while and it could be argued that since we
started testing 'arm7t' here (and not Armv1) the test itself was wrong. So I
changed the assembly to Armv1. Given the changes to objdump when
"disassembling all" it seemed like a good idea to force the disassembly to
'armv2' instead and actually accept the disassembly of the 26-bit Architecture

[src/erc32] Use ncurses instead of termcap on Cygwin too
This removes a Cygwin-specific libtermcap hack that was dependent on
the presence of one of the multiple alternative libraries. The one it
was hard-coded to pick isn't included with Cygwin anymore.
According to Corinna, libtermcap was removed from Cygwin a long time
ago, and libncurses is used in Cygwin for a long time too.
The fix is to make Cygwin use the same autoconf code to figure out the
correct lib as any other target.

Check return value of bfd_init
Alan recently added a way for BFD library users to check whether they
were in fact loading a compatible version of BFD:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2018-10/msg00198.html
It seemed reasonable to me that gdb should do this check as well, in
case someone is dynamically linking against BFD.
Simon pointed out that an earlier version of the patch would cause a
gdb crash if the test failed. This version works around this by
lowering the call to bfd_init and adding a comment explaining where
'error' can safely be called in captured_main_1.

Remove relational operators from common/offset-type.h
This patch is a follow-up of:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-10/msg00601.html
It removes the declaration of the relational operators for
common/offset-type.h. As it turns out, these overloads are not being
used when a new offset type is declared, because, according to Pedro
Alves:
I think the functions aren't called because they are templates, and
thus the built-in (non-template) versions take precedence. If you
make them non-templates, then they should be called. But, the
built-ins are fine, so yeah, we can just remove the custom
definitions.
The patch also adjusts the comments on the code.
