From: Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
Subject: [PATCH] Fix for PR c++/15203 and PR c++/15210
Date: Sat, 09 Mar 2013 02:50:49 -0300 (5 days, 4 hours, 57 minutes ago)
Message-ID: <m3a9qdnmti.fsf@redhat.com>

Hi,

This bug was reported internally at our Bugzilla, along with a proposed
fix.  After talking to Keith about it, he investigated and came up with
another patch needed to really fix the issue on CVS HEAD.

The first part of the fix is the patch to cp-namespace.c.  It handles
the case when we are accessing a static variable inside a function
(inside a class) by the full linespec (is it right, Keith?).  E.g.:

    class foo
    {
    public:
        int bar()
        {
            static int var = 0;
        }
    };

And then, printing the value of `var':

    (gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'

GDB would fall in an internal_error:

    gdb/cp-namespace.c:816: internal-error: cp_lookup_nested_symbol called on a non-aggregate type.

This is because `cp_lookup_nested_symbol' is not handling the case when
TYPE_CODE is either _FUNC or _METHOD.  This patch fixes it by returning
NULL in this case.

The second part of the fix is the patch to elfread.c.  It is needed
because the BSF_GNU_UNIQUE flag was added to some symbols in
<http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2009-06/msg00016.html>.  Because of
that, (still) the command:

    (gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'

where `var' is a static variable returns:

    "No symbol "foo::bar()::var" in current context."

So with the second patch applied the command finally DTRT:

    (gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'
    $1 = 0

This may not be the ideal solution, according to Keith it would be good
to implement productions on c-exp.y in order to recognize
CLASS::FUNCTION::VARIABLE, but it is a solution which works with what we
have today.

I regtested it in Fedora 17 x86_64 with -m64 and -m32, including
gdbserver, without regressions.

* hppa-hpux-nat.c (hppa_hpux_save_state_offset): Make static.

Fix completer.c FIXME, and invalid pointer to pointer conversion.

As mentioned in the previous patch, I grepped for "\*\*) &" and found
one hit in completer.c.

I was about to post a patch that simply made
current_demangling_style_string const, and cast away constness at the
xfree site.  However, looking deeper, it seem to be there's a lot of
dead code in the file.

First, all external callers of set_demangling_style are found in the
stabs reader, commented out for over 12 years:

  http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2000-12/msg00214.html

I don't think it's likely we'll ever make the older mangling schemes
work for stabs.  If we do, we can rediscuss the approach then.

Then, set_demangling_command has special handling for unknown
demangling styles, but "set demangle-style" is an enum command, and
with those, the user can only specify a known enumeration value, by
design:

  (gdb) set demangle-style gangnam-style
  Undefined item: "gangnam-style".

This patch removes all that dead code, then makes
current_demangling_style_string point to an element of
demangling_style_names, as the FIXME suggests, and then makes
current_demangling_style_string, removing the need for the 'const char
**' cast.

Extraneous NULL in linux_target_ops when HAVE_LINUX_BTRACE not defined

    linux-low.c:5943: error: excess elements in struct initializer

        Remove extraneous NULL element.

Constify strings in tracepoint.c, lookup_cmd and the completers.

This is sort of a continuation of Keith's parse_exp_1 constification
patch.  It started out by undoing these bits:

  @@ -754,9 +754,12 @@ validate_actionline (char **line, struct
      tmp_p = p;
      for (loc = t->base.loc; loc; loc = loc->next)
        {
  -       p = tmp_p;
  -       exp = parse_exp_1 (&p, loc->address,
  +       const char *q;
  +
  +       q = tmp_p;
  +       exp = parse_exp_1 (&q, loc->address,
     block_for_pc (loc->address), 1);
  +       p = (char *) q;

and progressively making more things const upwards, fixing fallout,
rinse repeat, until GDB built again (--enable-targets=all).

That ended up constifying lookup_cmd/add_cmd and (lots of) friends,
and the completers.

I didn't try to constify the command hooks themselves, because I know
upfront there are commands that write to the command string argument,
and I think I managed to stop at a nice non-hacky split point already.

I think the only non-really-super-obvious changes are
tracepoint.c:validate_actionline, and tracepoint.c:trace_dump_actions.

The rest is just mostly about 'char *' => 'const char *', 'char **'=>
'const char **', and the occasional (e.g., deprecated_cmd_warning)
case of 'char **'=> 'const char *', where/when I noticed that nothing
actually cares about the pointer to pointer output.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

As a follow up to:

  http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00449.html

In a nutshell, casts between 'char **' <-> 'unsigned char **' and
'char **' <-> 'const char **' are invalid.

I grepped for "\*\*) &" and found these.  There's another one in
demangle.c, but I've split fixing that one to a separate patch.

I think the ada_decode_symbol change is perhaps the one that could be
surprising.  The function's description has this comment, which makes
things much clearer:

   The GSYMBOL parameter is "mutable" in the C++ sense: logically
   const, but nevertheless modified to a semantically equivalent form
   when a decoded name is cached in it.  */

 const char *
 ada_decode_symbol (const struct general_symbol_info *gsymbol)

With that out of the way, I think the patch ends up being pretty
obvious.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

DW_OP_deref_size.

Allow 'thread' to be used as a variable name in expressions.

GDB treats the identifiers 'if', 'thread', and 'task' unconditionally
as expression delimiters in Ada mode, which is correct for 'if' and 'task',
but wrong for 'thread' in cases such as

      print thread

Borrowing from c-exp.y, we observe that 'thread' must be followed by
numerals, whereas identifiers never are and treat them as delimiters
only in that case.

In the process, the current also refactors and incidentally fixes the
code for rewinding the input to before the delimiting tokens.  For
example, the code

      watch expr if i > 2

fails because the input is only rewound to just before the 'i',
leaving the 'if' as part of the expression (and thus making the
rest look like trailing junk rather than a conditional clause).

gdb/ChangeLog:

    * ada-lex.l (rules): Only recognize 'thread' as a
    delimiter when followed by numerals, as for c-exp.y.
    Use new rewind_to_char function to rewind the input for
    expression-delimiting tokens.

In a nutshell, char (and variants) can alias anything, but pointers to

  http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00430.html

This patch fixes the cases I added last week.  It also fixes one other
preexisting case in charset.c, though it seems even older gccs don't
complain of char * <-> const char * aliasing.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

* charset.c (convert_between_encodings): Don't cast between
different pointer to pointer types.  Instead, make the 'inp' local
be of the type iconv expects.
(wchar_iterate): Don't cast between different pointer to pointer
types.  Instead, use new pointer local of the type iconv expects.
* target.c (target_read_stralloc, target_fileio_read_stralloc):
Add new local of type char pointer, and use it to get a
char/string view of the byte buffer, instead of casting between
pointer to pointer types.

target.c: fix -Wpointer-sign

$ make WERROR_CFLAGS="-Wpointer-sign -Werror" target.o -k 2>&1 1>/dev/null
../../src/gdb/target.c: In function ‘target_read_stralloc’:
../../src/gdb/target.c:2376:3: error: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of ‘strlen’ differ in signedness [-Werror=pointer-sign]
In file included from build-gnulib/import/string.h:27:0,

...

This is about the same as the previous patch.

Functions that take or return ascii-ish string arguments usually use
char* for parameters/return.  That means that at points we call into
target methods that work with binary blobs, we need casts to/from
gdb_byte*/char*.  To choose which type for the variables, I usually go
based on which requires the fewer casts, and what the contents of the
variable are supposed to hold, which often gives the same answer.
