The internal error of GDB is actually caused by GDBserver crashing, and
the error recovery of GDB is not on point. This patch aims to fix just
the GDBserver crash, not the GDB problem.
GDBserver crashes with a segfault here:

The reason is a wrong current process when find_one_thread is called.
The current process is the 2nd one, which was just attached. It does
not yet have thread_db data (proc->priv->thread_db is nullptr). As we
iterate on all threads of all process to fulfull the qxfer:threads:read
request, we get to a thread of process 1 for which we haven't read
thread_db information yet (lwp_info::thread_known is false), so we get
into find_one_thread. find_one_thread uses
`current_process ()->priv->thread_db`, assuming the current process
matches the ptid passed as a parameter, which is wrong. A segfault
happens when trying to dereference that thread_db pointer.
Fix this by making find_one_thread not assume what the current process /
current thread is. If it needs to call into libthread_db, which we know
will try to read memory from the current process, then temporarily set
the current process.
In the case where the thread is already know and we return early, we
don't need to switch process.
Add a test to reproduce this specific situation.

When running the kill command, commit_resumed_state for the
process_stratum_target (linux-nat, here) is true. After the kill, when
there are no more threads, commit_resumed_state is still true, as
nothing touches this flag during the kill operation. During the
subsequent run command, run_command_1 does:
scoped_disable_commit_resumed disable_commit_resumed ("running");
We would think that this would clear the commit_resumed_state flag of
our native target, but that's not the case, because
scoped_disable_commit_resumed iterates on non-exited inferiors in order
to find active process targets. And after the kill, the inferior is
exited, and the native target was unpushed from it anyway. So
scoped_disable_commit_resumed doesn't touch the commit_resumed_state
flag of the native target, it stays true. When reaching target_wait, in
startup_inferior (to consume the initial expect stop events while the
inferior is starting up and working its way through the shell),
commit_resumed_state is true, breaking the contract saying that
commit_resumed_state is always false when calling the targets' wait
method.
(note: to be correct, I think that startup_inferior should toggle
commit_resumed between the target_wait and target_resume calls, but I'll
ignore that for now)
I can see multiple ways to fix this. In the end, we need
commit_resumed_state to be cleared by the time we get to that
target_wait. It could be done at the end of the kill command, or at the
beginning of the run command.
To keep things in a coherent state, I'd like to make it so that after
the kill command, when the target is left with no threads, its
commit_resumed_state flag is left to false. This way, we can keep
working with the assumption that a target with no threads (and therefore
no running threads) has commit_resumed_state == false.
Do this by adding a scoped_disable_commit_resumed in target_kill. It
clears the target's commit_resumed_state on entry, and leaves it false
if the target does not have any resumed thread on exit. That means,
even if the target has another inferior with stopped threads,
commit_resumed_state will be left to false, which makes sense.
Add a test that tries to cover various combinations of actions done
while an inferior is running (and therefore while commit_resumed_state
is true on the process target).

Bug gdb/29712 identifies a problem with the Python disassembler API.
In some cases GDB will try to throw an exception through the
libopcodes disassembler code, however, not all targets include
exception unwind information when compiling C code, for targets that
don't include this information GDB will terminate when trying to pass
the exception through libopcodes.
To explain what GDB is trying to do, consider the following trivial
use of the Python disassembler API:
class ExampleDisassembler(gdb.disassembler.Disassembler):
class MyInfo(gdb.disassembler.DisassembleInfo):
def __init__(self, info):
super().__init__(info)
def read_memory(self, length, offset):
return super().read_memory(length, offset)
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("ExampleDisassembler")
def __call__(self, info):
info = self.MyInfo(info)
return gdb.disassembler.builtin_disassemble(info)
This disassembler doesn't add any value, it defers back to GDB to do
all the actual work, but it serves to allow us to discuss the problem.
The problem occurs when a Python exception is raised by the
MyInfo.read_memory method. The MyInfo.read_memory method is called
from the C++ function gdbpy_disassembler::read_memory_func. The C++
stack at the point this function is called looks like this:
#0 gdbpy_disassembler::read_memory_func (memaddr=4198805, buff=0x7fff9ab9d2a8 "\220ӹ\232\377\177", len=1, info=0x7fff9ab9d558) at ../../src/gdb/python/py-disasm.c:510

So gdbpy_disassembler::read_memory_func is called from the libopcodes
disassembler to read memory, this C++ function then calls into user
supplied Python code to do the work.
If the user supplied Python code raises an gdb.MemoryError exception
indicating the memory read failed, this is fine. The C++ code
converts this exception back into a return value that libopcodes can
understand, and returns to libopcodes.
However, if the user supplied Python code raises some other exception,
what we want is for this exception to propagate through GDB and appear
as if raised by the call to gdb.disassembler.builtin_disassemble. To
achieve this, when gdbpy_disassembler::read_memory_func spots an
unknown Python exception, we must pass the information about this
exception from frame #0 to frame bminor#8 in the above backtrace. Frame bminor#8
is the C++ implementation of gdb.disassembler.builtin_disassemble, and
so it is this function that we want to re-raise the unknown Python
exception, so the user can, if they want, catch the exception in their
code.
The previous mechanism by which the exception was passed was to pack
the details of the Python exception into a C++ exception, then throw
the exception from frame #0, and catch the exception in frame bminor#8,
unpack the details of the Python exception, and re-raise it.
However, this relies on the exception passing through frames #1 to bminor#7,
some of which are in libopcodes, which is C code, and so, might not be
compiled with exception support.
This commit proposes an alternative solution that does not rely on
throwing a C++ exception.
When we spot an unhandled Python exception in frame #0, we will store
the details of this exception within the gdbpy_disassembler object
currently in use. Then we return to libopcodes a value indicating
that the memory_read failed.
libopcodes will now continue to disassemble as though that memory read
failed (with one special case described below), then, when we
eventually return to disasmpy_builtin_disassemble we check to see if
there is an exception stored in the gdbpy_disassembler object. If
there is then this exception can immediately be installed, and then we
return back to Python, when the user will be able to catch the
exception.
There is one extra change in gdbpy_disassembler::read_memory_func.
After the first call that results in an exception being stored on the
gdbpy_disassembler object, any future calls to the ::read_memory_func
function will immediately return as if the read failed. This avoids
any additional calls into user supplied Python code.
My thinking here is that should the first call fail with some unknown
error, GDB should not keep trying with any additional calls. This
maintains the illusion that the exception raised from
MyInfo.read_memory is immediately raised by
gdb.disassembler.builtin_disassemble. I have no tests for this change
though - to trigger this issue would rely on a libopcodes disassembler
that will try to read further memory even after the first failed
read. I'm not aware of any such disassembler that currently does
this, but that doesn't mean such a disassembler couldn't exist in the
future.
With this change in place the gdb.python/py-disasm.exp test should now
pass on AArch64.

This commit changes the target_stack class from using a C style array
of 'target_ops *' to using a C++ std::array<target_ops_ref, ...>. The
benefit of this change is that some of the reference counting of
target_ops objects is now done automatically.
This commit fixes a crash in gdb.python/py-inferior.exp where GDB
crashes at exit, leaving a core file behind.
The crash occurs in connpy_connection_dealloc, and is actually
triggered by this assert:
gdb_assert (conn_obj->target == nullptr);
Now a little aside...
... the assert is never actually printed, instead GDB crashes due
to calling a pure virtual function. The backtrace at the point of
crash looks like this:
bminor#7 0x00007fef7e2cf747 in std::terminate() () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6
bminor#8 0x00007fef7e2d0515 in __cxa_pure_virtual () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6

bminor#14 0x0000000000ee55f1 in internal_vproblem(internal_problem *, const char *, int, const char *, typedef __va_li>
Notice in frame bminor#12 we called target_ops::supports_terminal_ours,
however, this is the_dummy_target, which is of type dummy_target,
and so we should have called dummy_target::supports_terminal_ours.
I believe the reason we ended up in the wrong implementation of
supports_terminal_ours (which is a virtual function) is because we
made the call during GDB's shut-down, and, I suspect, the vtables
were in a weird state.
Anyway, the point of this patch is not to fix GDB's ability to
print an assert during exit, but to address the root cause of the
assert. With that aside out of the way, we can return to the main
story...
Connections are represented in Python with gdb.TargetConnection
objects (or its sub-classes). The assert in question confirms that
when a gdb.TargetConnection is deallocated, the underlying GDB
connection has itself been removed from GDB. If this is not true then
we risk creating multiple different gdb.TargetConnection objects for
the same connection, which would be bad.
To ensure that we have one gdb.TargetConnection object for each
connection, the all_connection_objects map exists, this maps the
process_stratum_target object (the connection) to the
gdb.TargetConnection object that represents the connection.
When a connection is removed in GDB the connection_removed observer
fires, which we catch with connpy_connection_removed, this function
then sets conn_obj->target to nullptr, and removes the corresponding
entry from the all_connection_objects map.
The first issue here is that connpy_connection_dealloc is being called
as part of GDB's exit code, which is run after the Python interpreter
has been shut down. The connpy_connection_dealloc function is used to
deallocate the gdb.TargetConnection Python object. Surely it is
wrong for us to be deallocating Python objects after the interpreter
has been shut down.
The reason why connpy_connection_dealloc is called during GDB's exit
is that the global all_connection_objects map is still holding a
reference to the gdb.TargetConnection object. When the map is
destroyed during GDB's exit, the gdb.TargetConnection objects within
the map can finally be deallocated.
The reason why all_connection_objects has contents when GDB exits, and
the reason the assert fires, is that, when GDB exits, there are still
some connections that have not yet been removed from GDB, that is,
they have a non-zero reference count.
If we take a look at quit_force (top.c) you can see that, for each
inferior, we call pop_all_targets before we (later in the function)
call do_final_cleanups. It is the do_final_cleanups call that is
responsible for shutting down the Python interpreter. The
pop_all_targets calls should, in theory, cause all the connections to
be removed from GDB.
That this isn't working indicates that some targets have a non-zero
reference count even after this final pop_all_targets call, and
indeed, when I debug GDB, that is what I see.
I tracked the problem down to delete_inferior where we do some house
keeping, and then delete the inferior object, which calls
inferior::~inferior.
In neither delete_inferior or inferior::~inferior do we call
pop_all_targets, and it is this missing call that means we leak some
references to the target_ops objects on the inferior's target_stack.
In this commit I will provide a partial fix for the problem. I say
partial fix, but this will actually be enough to resolve the crash.
In a later commit I will provide the final part of the fix.
As mentioned at the start of the commit message, this commit changes
the m_stack in target_stack to hold target_ops_ref objects. This
means that when inferior::~inferior is called, and m_stack is
released, we automatically decrement the target_ops reference count.
With this change in place we no longer leak any references, and now,
in quit_force the final pop_all_targets calls will release the final
references. This means that the targets will be correctly closed at
this point, which means the connections will be removed from GDB and
the Python objects deallocated before the Python interpreter shuts
down.
There's a slight oddity in target_stack::unpush, where we std::move
the reference out of m_stack like this:
auto ref = std::move (m_stack[stratum]);
the `ref' isn't used explicitly, but it serves to hold the
target_ops_ref until the end of the scope while allowing the m_stack
entry to be reset back to nullptr. The alternative would be to
directly set the m_stack entry to nullptr, like this:
m_stack[stratum] = nullptr;
The problem here is that when we set the m_stack entry to nullptr we
first decrement the target_ops reference count, and then set the array
entry to nullptr.
If the decrement means that the target_ops object reaches a zero
reference count then the target_ops object will be closed by calling
target_close. In target_close we ensure that the target being closed
is not in any inferiors target_stack.
As we decrement before clearing, then this check in target_close will
fail, and an assert will trigger.
By using std::move to move the reference out of m_stack, this clears
the m_stack entry, meaning the inferior no longer contains the
target_ops in its target_stack. Now when the REF object goes out of
scope and the reference count is decremented, target_close can run
successfully.
I've made use of the Python connection_removed listener API to add a
test for this issue. The test installs a listener and then causes
delete_inferior to be called, we can then see that the connection is
then correctly removed (because the listener triggers).

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/index-cache.c:76 in index_cache::enable()
...
The race happens when issuing a "file $exec" command followed by a
"set index-cache enabled on" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread reading index_cache::m_enabled to determine whether an
index-cache entry for $exec needs to be written
(due to command "file $exec"), and
- the main thread setting index_cache::m_enabled
(due to command "set index-cache enabled on").
Fix this by capturing the value of index_cache::m_enabled in the main thread,
and using the captured value in the worker thread.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race bfd/cache.c:584 in bfd_open_file
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread getting the build id while writing the index cache, and in
the process reading bfd::format, and
- the main thread calling find_main_name, and in the process setting
bfd::cacheable.
The two bitfields bfd::cacheable and bfd::format share the same bitfield
container.
Fix this by capturing the build id in the main thread, and using the captured
value in the worker thread.
Likewise for the dwz build id, which likely suffers from the same issue.
While we're at it, also move the creation of the cache directory to
the index_cache_store_context constructor, to:
- make sure there's no race between subsequent file commands, and
- issue any related warning or error messages during the file command.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:5564 in queue_comp_unit
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread expanding the CU containing main, and in the process setting
dwarf2_per_cu_data::queued.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::queue and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::queued a packed<bool, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:3077 in dw_expand_symtabs_matching_file_matcher(dwarf2_per_objfile*, gdb::function_view<bool (char const*, bool)>)
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark a packed<unsigned int, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:2033 in dw2_get_file_names_reader
...
The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command.
The race is between:
- a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and
- the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read.
The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read and
dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container.
Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::files_read a packed<bool, 1>.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

GetConsoleProcessList's documentation says: If the buffer is too small to hold all the valid process identifiers, the return value is the required number of array elements. The function will have stored no identifiers in the buffer. In this situation, use the return value to allocate a buffer that is large enough to store the entire list and call the function again. In this case, the buffer wasn't too small, it was exactly the right size, so we should have broken out of the loop. We didn't due to a "<" check that should have been "<=".

This commit fixes an issue that was discovered while writing the tests for the previous commit. I noticed that, when GDB restarts an inferior, the executable_changed event would trigger twice. The first notification would originate from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x4046680 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x00000000006f3adb in reopen_exec_file () at ../../src/gdb/corefile.c:122 #2 0x0000000000e6a3f2 in generic_mourn_inferior () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:3682 #3 0x0000000000995121 in inf_child_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-child.c:192 #4 0x0000000000995cff in inf_ptrace_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-ptrace.c:125 #5 0x0000000000a32472 in linux_nat_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3609 #6 0x0000000000e68a40 in target_mourn_inferior (ptid=...) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2761 #7 0x0000000000a323ec in linux_nat_target::kill (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3593 #8 0x0000000000e64d1c in target_kill () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:924 #9 0x00000000009a19bc in kill_if_already_running (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:328 #10 0x00000000009a1a6f in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:381 #11 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #12 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 While the second originates from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x3d7a1d0 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x0000000000dfe525 in reread_symbols (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/symfile.c:2517 #2 0x00000000009a1a98 in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:398 #3 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #4 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 In the first case the call to exec_file_attach first passes through reopen_exec_file. The reopen_exec_file performs a modification time check on the executable file, and only calls exec_file_attach if the executable has changed on disk since it was last loaded. However, in the second case things work a little differently. In this case GDB is really trying to reread the debug symbol. As such, we iterate over the objfiles list, and for each of those we check the modification time, if the file on disk has changed then we reload the debug symbols from that file. However, there is an additional check, if the objfile has the same name as the executable then we will call exec_file_attach, but we do so without checking the cached modification time that indicates when the executable was last reloaded, as a result, we reload the executable twice. In this commit I propose that reread_symbols be changed to unconditionally call reopen_exec_file before performing the objfile iteration. This will ensure that, if the executable has changed, then the executable will be reloaded, however, if the executable has already been recently reloaded, we will not reload it for a second time. After handling the executable, GDB can then iterate over the objfiles list and reload them in the normal way. With this done I now see the executable reloaded only once when GDB restarts an inferior, which means I can remove the kfail that I added to the gdb.python/py-exec-file.exp test in the previous commit.

It was pointed out on the mailing list that a recently added test (gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp) was failing when run with the native-extended-gdbserver board. This test was added with this commit: commit 59912fb Date: Tue Sep 19 11:45:36 2023 +0100 gdb: add Python events for program space addition and removal It turns out though that the test is failing due to a existing bug in GDB, the new test just exposes the problem. Additionally, the failure really doesn't even rely on the new functionality added in the above commit. I reduced the test to a simple set of steps that reproduced the failure and tested against GDB 13, and the test passes; so the bug was introduced since then. In fact, the bug was introduced with this commit: commit a282736 Date: Fri Sep 8 15:48:16 2023 +0100 gdb: remove final user of the executable_changed observer This commit changed how the per-inferior auxv data cache is managed, specifically, when the cache is cleared, and it is this that leads to the failure. This bug is interesting because it exposes a number of issues with GDB, I'll explain all of the problems I see, though ultimately, I only propose fixing one problem in this commit, which is enough to resolve the crash we are currently seeing. The crash that we are seeing manifests like this: ... [Inferior 2 (process 3970384) exited normally] +inferior 1 [Switching to inferior 1 [process 3970383] (/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.python/py-progspace-events/py-progspace-events)] [Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 3970383.3970383)] #0 breakpt () at /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-progspace-events.c:28 28 { /* Nothing. */ } (gdb) step +step terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_error' Fatal signal: Aborted ... etc ... What's happening is that GDB attempts to refill the auxv cache as a result of the gdbarch_has_shared_address_space call in program_space::~program_space, the backtrace looks like this: #0 0x00007fb4f419a9a5 in raise () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0 #1 0x00000000008b635d in handle_fatal_signal (sig=6) at ../../src/gdb/event-top.c:912 #2 <signal handler called> #3 0x00007fb4f38e3625 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #4 0x00007fb4f38cc8d9 in abort () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #5 0x00007fb4f3c70756 in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler() [clone .cold] () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #6 0x00007fb4f3c7c6dc in __cxxabiv1::__terminate(void (*)()) () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #7 0x00007fb4f3c7b6e9 in __cxa_call_terminate () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #8 0x00007fb4f3c7c094 in __gxx_personality_v0 () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #9 0x00007fb4f3a80c63 in _Unwind_RaiseException_Phase2 () from /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 #10 0x00007fb4f3a8154e in _Unwind_Resume () from /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 #11 0x0000000000e8832d in target_read_alloc_1<unsigned char> (ops=0x408a3a0, object=TARGET_OBJECT_AUXV, annex=0x0) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2266 #12 0x0000000000e73dea in target_read_alloc (ops=0x408a3a0, object=TARGET_OBJECT_AUXV, annex=0x0) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2315 #13 0x000000000058248c in target_read_auxv_raw (ops=0x408a3a0) at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:379 #14 0x000000000058243d in target_read_auxv () at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:368 #15 0x000000000058255c in target_auxv_search (match=0x0, valp=0x7ffdee17c598) at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:415 #16 0x0000000000a464bb in linux_is_uclinux () at ../../src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:433 #17 0x0000000000a464f6 in linux_has_shared_address_space (gdbarch=0x409a2d0) at ../../src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:440 #18 0x0000000000510eae in gdbarch_has_shared_address_space (gdbarch=0x409a2d0) at ../../src/gdb/gdbarch.c:4889 #19 0x0000000000bc7558 in program_space::~program_space (this=0x4544aa0, __in_chrg=<optimized out>) at ../../src/gdb/progspace.c:124 #20 0x00000000009b245d in delete_inferior (inf=0x47b3de0) at ../../src/gdb/inferior.c:290 #21 0x00000000009b2c10 in prune_inferiors () at ../../src/gdb/inferior.c:480 #22 0x00000000009c5e3e in fetch_inferior_event () at ../../src/gdb/infrun.c:4558 #23 0x000000000099b4dc in inferior_event_handler (event_type=INF_REG_EVENT) at ../../src/gdb/inf-loop.c:42 #24 0x0000000000cbc64f in remote_async_serial_handler (scb=0x4090a30, context=0x408a6b0) at ../../src/gdb/remote.c:14859 #25 0x0000000000d83d3a in run_async_handler_and_reschedule (scb=0x4090a30) at ../../src/gdb/ser-base.c:138 #26 0x0000000000d83e1f in fd_event (error=0, context=0x4090a30) at ../../src/gdb/ser-base.c:189 So this is problem #1, if we throw an exception while deleting a program_space then this is not caught, and is going to crash GDB. Problem #2 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is throwing an error in this case; the error is thrown because the remote target, operating in non-async mode, can't read the auxv data while an inferior is running and GDB is waiting for a stop reply. The problem here then, is why does GDB get into a position where it tries to interact with the remote target in this way, at this time? The problem is caused by the prune_inferiors call which can be seen in the above backtrace. In prune_inferiors we check if the inferior is deletable, and if it is, we delete it. The problem is, I think, we should also check if the target is currently in a state that would allow us to delete the inferior. We don't currently have such a check available, we'd need to add one, but for the remote target, this would return false if the remote is in async mode and the remote is currently waiting for a stop reply. With this change in place GDB would defer deleting the inferior until the remote target has stopped, at which point GDB would be able to refill the auxv cache successfully. And then, problem #3 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is needing to refill the auxv cache now when it didn't need to for GDB 13. This is where the second commit mentioned above (a282736) comes in. Prior to this commit, the auxv cache was cleared by the executable_changed observer, while after that commit the auxv cache was cleared by the new_objfile observer -- but only when the new_objfile observer is used in the special mode that actually means that all objfiles have been unloaded (I know, the overloading of the new_objfile observer is horrible, and unnecessary, but it's not really important for this bug). The difference arises because the new_objfile observer is triggered from clear_symtab_users, which in turn is called from program_space::~program_space. The new_objfile observer for auxv does this: static void auxv_new_objfile_observer (struct objfile *objfile) { if (objfile == nullptr) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (current_inferior ()); } That is, when all the objfiles are unloaded, we clear the auxv cache for the current inferior. The problem is, then when we look at the prune_inferiors -> delete_inferior -> ~program_space path, we see that the current inferior is not going to be an inferior that exists within the program_space being deleted; delete_inferior removes the deleted inferior from the global inferior list, and then only deletes the program_space if program_space::empty() returns true, which is only the case if the current inferior isn't within the program_space to delete, and no other inferior exists within that program_space either. What this means is that when the new_objfile observer is called we can't rely on the current inferior having any relationship with the program space in which the objfiles were removed. This was an error in the commit a282736, the only thing we can rely on is the current program space. As a result of this mistake, after commit a282736, GDB was sometimes clearing the auxv cache for a random inferior. In the native target case this was harmless as we can always refill the cache when needed, but in the remote target case, if we need to refill the cache when the remote target is executing, then we get the crash we observed. And additionally, if we think about this a little more, we see that commit a282736 made another mistake. When all the objfiles are removed, they are removed from a program_space, a program_space might contain multiple inferiors, so surely, we should clear the auxv cache for all of the matching inferiors? Given these two insights, that the current_inferior is not relevant, only the current_program_space, and that we should be clearing the cache for all inferiors in the current_program_space, we can update auxv_new_objfile_observer to: if (objfile == nullptr) { for (inferior *inf : all_inferiors ()) { if (inf->pspace == current_program_space) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (inf); } } With this change we now correctly clear the auxv cache for the correct inferiors, and GDB no longer needs to refill the cache at an inconvenient time, this avoids the crash we were seeing. And finally, we reach problem #4. Inspired by the observation that using the current_inferior from within the ~program_space function was not correct, I added some debug to see if current_inferior() was called anywhere else (below ~program_space), and the answer is yes, it's called a often. Mostly the culprit is GDB doing: current_inferior ()->top_target ()-> .... But I think all of these calls are most likely doing the wrong thing, and only work because the top target in all these cases is shared between all inferiors, e.g. it's the native target, or the remote target for all inferiors. But if we had a truly multi-connection setup, then we might start to see odd behaviour. Problem #1 I'm just ignoring for now, I guess at some point we might run into this again, and then we'd need to solve this. But in this case I wasn't sure what a "good" solution would look like. We need the auxv data in order to implement the linux_is_uclinux() function. If we can't get the auxv data then what should we do, assume yes, or assume no? The right answer would probably be to propagate the error back up the stack, but then we reach ~program_space, and throwing exceptions from a destructor is problematic, so we'd need to catch and deal at this point. The linux_is_uclinux() call is made from within gdbarch_has_shared_address_space(), which is used like: if (!gdbarch_has_shared_address_space (target_gdbarch ())) delete this->aspace; So, we would have to choose; delete the address space or not. If we delete it on error, then we might delete an address space that is shared within another program space. If we don't delete the address space, then we might leak it. Neither choice is great. A better solution might be to have the address spaces be reference counted, then we could remove the gdbarch_has_shared_address_space call completely, and just rely on the reference count to auto-delete the address space when appropriate. The solution for problem #2 I already hinted at above, we should have a new target_can_delete_inferiors() call, which should be called from prune_inferiors, this would prevent GDB from trying to delete inferiors when a (remote) target is in a state where we know it can't delete the inferior. Deleting an inferior often (always?) requires sending packets to the remote, and if the remote is waiting for a stop reply then this will never work, so the pruning should be deferred in this case. The solution for problem #3 is included in this commit. And, for problem #4, I'm not sure what the right solution is. Maybe delete_inferior should ensure the inferior to be deleted is in place when ~program_space is called? But that seems a little weird, as the current inferior would, in theory, still be using the current program_space... Anyway, after this commit, the gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp test now passes when run with the native-extended-remote board.

I noticed that on an Ubuntu 20.04 system, after a following patch
("Step over clone syscall w/ breakpoint,
TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_CLONED"), the gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp
was passing cleanly, but still, we'd end up with four new unexpected
GDB core dumps:
=== gdb Summary ===
# of unexpected core files 4
# of expected passes 48
That said patch is making the pre-existing
gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp testcase (almost silently) expose a
latent problem in gdb/linux-nat.c, resulting in a GDB crash when:
#1 - a non-leader thread execs
#2 - the post-exec program stops somewhere
#3 - you kill the inferior
Instead of #3 directly, the testcase just returns, which ends up in
gdb_exit, tearing down GDB, which kills the inferior, and is thus
equivalent to #3 above.
Vis (after said patch is applied):

The root of the problem is that when a non-leader LWP execs, it just
changes its tid to the tgid, replacing the pre-exec leader thread,
becoming the new leader. There's no thread exit event for the execing
thread. It's as if the old pre-exec LWP vanishes without trace. The
ptrace man page says:
"PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC (since Linux 2.5.46)
Stop the tracee at the next execve(2). A waitpid(2) by the
tracer will return a status value such that
status>>8 == (SIGTRAP | (PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC<<8))
If the execing thread is not a thread group leader, the thread
ID is reset to thread group leader's ID before this stop.
Since Linux 3.0, the former thread ID can be retrieved with
PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG."
When the core of GDB processes an exec events, it deletes all the
threads of the inferior. But, that is too late -- deleting the thread
does not delete the corresponding LWP, so we end leaving the pre-exec
non-leader LWP stale in the LWP list. That's what leads to the crash
above -- linux_nat_target::kill iterates over all LWPs, and after the
patch in question, that code will look for the corresponding
thread_info for each LWP. For the pre-exec non-leader LWP still
listed, won't find one.
This patch fixes it, by deleting the pre-exec non-leader LWP (and
thread) from the LWP/thread lists as soon as we get an exec event out
of ptrace.
GDBserver does not need an equivalent fix, because it is already doing
this, as side effect of mourning the pre-exec process, in
gdbserver/linux-low.cc:
else if (event == PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC && cs.report_exec_events)
{
...
/* Delete the execing process and all its threads. */
mourn (proc);
switch_to_thread (nullptr);
The crash with gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp is not observable on
newer systems, which postdate the glibc change to move "libpthread.so"
internals to "libc.so.6", because right after the exec, GDB traps a
load event for "libc.so.6", which leads to GDB trying to open
libthread_db for the post-exec inferior, and, on such systems that
succeeds. When we load libthread_db, we call
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, which, as the name suggests, stops all
lwps, and then waits to see their stops. While doing this, GDB
detects that the pre-exec stale LWP is gone, and deletes it.
If we use "catch exec" to stop right at the exec before the
"libc.so.6" load event ever happens, and issue "kill" right there,
then GDB crashes on newer systems as well. So instead of tweaking
gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp to cover the fix, add a new
gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp testcase that uses "catch exec".
The test also uses the new "maint info linux-lwps" command if testing
on Linux native, which also exposes the stale LWP problem with an
unfixed GDB.
Also tweak a comment in infrun.c:follow_exec referring to how
linux-nat.c used to behave, as it would become stale otherwise.

Running the gdb.threads/step-over-thread-exit-while-stop-all-threads.exp testcase added later in the series against gdbserver, after the TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED fix from the following patch, would run into an infinite loop in stop_all_threads, leading to a timeout: FAIL: gdb.threads/step-over-thread-exit-while-stop-all-threads.exp: displaced-stepping=off: target-non-stop=on: iter 0: continue (timeout) The is really a latent bug, and it is about the fact that stop_all_threads stops listening to events from a target as soon as it sees a TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, ignoring that TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED may be delayed. handle_no_resumed knows how to handle delayed no-resumed events, but stop_all_threads was never taught to. In more detail, here's what happens with that testcase: #1 - Multiple threads report breakpoint hits to gdb. #2 - gdb picks one events, and it's for thread 1. All other stops are left pending. thread 1 needs to move past a breakpoint, so gdb stops all threads to start an inline step over for thread 1. While stopping threads, some of the threads that were still running report events that are also left pending. #2 - gdb steps thread 1 #3 - Thread 1 exits while stepping (it steps over an exit syscall), gdbserver reports thread exit for thread 1 #4 - Thread 1 was the last resumed thread, so gdbserver also reports no-resumed: [remote] Notification received: Stop:w0;p3445d0.3445d3 [remote] Sending packet: $vStopped#55 [remote] Packet received: N [remote] Sending packet: $vStopped#55 [remote] Packet received: OK #5 - gdb processes the thread exit for thread 1, finishes the step over and restarts threads. #6 - gdb picks the next event to process out of one of the resumed threads with pending events: [infrun] random_resumed_with_pending_wait_status: Found 32 events, selecting #11 #7 - This is again a breakpoint hit and the breakpoint needs to be stepped over too, so gdb starts a step-over dance again. #8 - We reach stop_all_threads, which finds that some threads need to be stopped. #9 - wait_one finally consumes the no-resumed event queue by #4. Seeing this, wait_one disable target async, to stop listening for events out of the remote target. #10 - We still haven't seen all the stops expected, so stop_all_threads tries another iteration. #11 - Because the remote target is no longer async, and there are no other targets, wait_one return no-resumed immediately without polling the remote target. #12 - We still haven't seen all the stops expected, so stop_all_threads tries another iteration. goto #11, looping forever. Fix this by explicitly enabling/re-enabling target async on targets that can async, before waiting for stops.

AFAIU, there's a race between the two threads on gdb_stderr: - the DAP thread samples the gdb_stderr value, and uses it a bit later to print to - the gdb main thread changes the gdb_stderr value forth and back, using a temporary value for string capture purposes The non-sound stream value is caused by gdb_stderr being sampled while pointing to a str_file object, and used once the str_file object is already destroyed. The error here is that the DAP thread attempts to print to gdb_stderr. Fix this by adding a thread_wrapper that: - catches all exceptions and logs them to dap.log, and - while we're at it, logs when exiting and using the thread_wrapper for each DAP thread. Tested on aarch64-linux. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>

The direct cause of the segfault is calling PyGILState_Ensure after calling Py_Finalize. AFAICT the problem is a race between the gdb main thread and DAP's JSON writer thread. On one side, we have the following events: - DAP's JSON reader thread reads an EOF, and lets DAP's main thread known by writing None into read_queue - DAP's main thread lets DAP's JSON writer thread known by writing None into write_queue - DAP's JSON writer thread sees the None in its queue, and calls send_gdb("quit") - a corresponding gdbpy_event is deposited in the runnables vector, to be run by the gdb main thread On the other side, we have the following events: - the gdb main thread receives a SIGHUP - the corresponding handler calls quit_force, which calls do_final_cleanups - one of the final cleanups is finalize_python, which calls Py_Finalize - quit_force calls exit, which triggers the exit handlers - one of the exit handlers is the destructor of the runnables vector - destruction of the vector triggers destruction of the remaining element - the remaining element is a gdbpy_event, and the destructor (indirectly) calls PyGILState_Ensure It's good to note that both events (EOF and SIGHUP) are caused by this line in the test-case: ... catch "close -i $gdb_spawn_id" ... where "expect close" closes the stdin and stdout file descriptors, which causes the SIGHUP to be send. So, for the system I'm running this on, the send_gdb("quit") is actually not needed. I'm not sure if we support any systems where it's actually needed. Fix this by removing the send_gdb("quit").

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow (/lib64/libasan.so.8+0x6da18) in memmove
...
The error happens when trying to print either variable y or y2:
...
type Variable_Record (A : Boolean := True) is record
case A is
when True =>
B : Integer;
when False =>
C : Float;
D : Integer;
end case;
end record;
Y : Variable_Record := (A => True, B => 1);
Y2 : Variable_Record := (A => False, C => 1.0, D => 2);
...
when the variables are uninitialized.
The error happens only when printing the entire variable:
...
(gdb) p y.a
$2 = 216
(gdb) p y.b
There is no member named b.
(gdb) p y.c
$3 = 9.18340949e-41
(gdb) p y.d
$4 = 1
(gdb) p y
<AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow>
...
The error happens as follows:
- field a functions as discriminant, choosing either the b, or c+d variant.
- when y.a happens to be set to 216, as above, gdb interprets this as the
variable having the c+d variant (which is why trying to print y.b fails).
- when printing y, gdb allocates a value, copies the bytes into it from the
target, and then prints the value.
- gdb allocates the value using the type size, which is 8. It's 8 because
that's what the DW_AT_byte_size indicates. Note that for valid values of a,
it gives correct results: if a is 0 (c+d variant), size is 12, if a is 1
(b variant), size is 8.
- gdb tries to print field d, which is at an 8 byte offset, and that results
in a out-of-bounds access for the allocated 8-byte value.
Fix this by handling this case in value::contents_copy_raw, such that we have:
...
(gdb) p y
$1 = (a => 24, c => 9.18340949e-41,
d => <error reading variable: access outside bounds of object>)
...
An alternative (additional) fix could be this: in compute_variant_fields_inner
gdb reads the discriminant y.a to decide which variant is active. It would be
nice to detect that the value (y.a == 24) is not a valid Boolean, and give up
on choosing a variant altoghether. However, the situation regarding the
internal type CODE_TYPE_BOOL is currently ambiguous (see PR31282) and it's not
possible to reliably decide what valid values are.
The test-case source file gdb.ada/uninitialized-variable-record/parse.adb is
a reduced version of gdb.ada/uninitialized_vars/parse.adb, so it copies the
copyright years.
Note that the test-case needs gcc-12 or newer, it's unsupported for older gcc
versions. [ So, it would be nice to rewrite it into a dwarf assembly
test-case. ]
The test-case loops over all languages. This is inherited from an earlier
attempt to fix this, which had language-specific fixes (in print_field_values,
cp_print_value_fields, pascal_object_print_value_fields and
f_language::value_print_inner). I've left this in, but I suppose it's not
strictly necessary anymore.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

From the Python API, we can execute GDB commands via gdb.execute. If the command gives an exception, however, we need to recover the GDB prompt and enable stdin, because the exception does not reach top-level GDB or normal_stop. This was done in commit commit 1ba1ac8 Author: Andrew Burgess <andrew.burgess@embecosm.com> Date: Tue Nov 19 11:17:20 2019 +0000 gdb: Enable stdin on exception in execute_gdb_command with the following code: catch (const gdb_exception &except) { /* If an exception occurred then we won't hit normal_stop (), or have an exception reach the top level of the event loop, which are the two usual places in which stdin would be re-enabled. So, before we convert the exception and continue back in Python, we should re-enable stdin here. */ async_enable_stdin (); GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION (except); } In this patch, we explain what happens when we run a GDB command in the context of a synchronous command, e.g. via Python observer notifications. As an example, suppose we have the following objfile event listener, specified in a file named file.py: ~~~ import gdb class MyListener: def __init__(self): gdb.events.new_objfile.connect(self.handle_new_objfile_event) self.processed_objfile = False def handle_new_objfile_event(self, event): if self.processed_objfile: return print("loading " + event.new_objfile.filename) self.processed_objfile = True gdb.execute('add-inferior -no-connection') gdb.execute('inferior 2') gdb.execute('target remote | gdbserver - /tmp/a.out') gdb.execute('inferior 1') the_listener = MyListener() ~~~ Using this Python file, we see the behavior below: $ gdb -q -ex "source file.py" -ex "run" --args a.out Reading symbols from a.out... Starting program: /tmp/a.out loading /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 [New inferior 2] Added inferior 2 [Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)] stdin/stdout redirected Process /tmp/a.out created; pid = 3075406 Remote debugging using stdio Reading /tmp/a.out from remote target... ...

[Inferior 1 (process 3075400) exited normally] Note how the GDB prompt comes in-between the debugger output. We have this obscure behavior, because the executed command, "target remote", triggers an invocation of `normal_stop` that enables stdin. After that, however, the Python notification context completes and GDB continues with its normal flow of executing the 'run' command.

In principle, we would reproduce the problem with any command that triggers an invocation of `normal_stop`. To omit enabling the stdin in `normal_stop`, we would have to check the context we are in. Since we cannot do that, we add a new field to `struct ui` to track whether the prompt was already blocked, and set the tracker flag in the Python context before executing a GDB command.

The abort happens because a c++ exception escapes to c code, specifically opncls_bstat in bfd/opncls.c. Compiling with -fexceptions works around this. Fix this by catching the exception just before it escapes, in stat_trampoline and likewise in few similar spot. Add a new template catch_exceptions to do so in a consistent way.

The commit: commit c6b4867 Date: Thu Mar 30 19:21:22 2023 +0100 gdb: parse pending breakpoint thread/task immediately Introduce a use bug where the value of a temporary variable was being used after it had gone out of scope. This was picked up by the address sanitizer and would result in this error: (gdb) maintenance selftest create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string Running selftest create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string. ================================================================= ==2265825==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: stack-use-after-scope on address 0x7fbb08046511 at pc 0x000001632230 bp 0x7fff7c2fb770 sp 0x7fff7c2fb768 READ of size 1 at 0x7fbb08046511 thread T0 #0 0x163222f in create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string(char const*, std::unique_ptr<char, gdb::xfree_deleter<char> >*, int*, int*, int*, std::unique_ptr<char, gdb::xfree_deleter<char> >*, bool*) ../../src/gdb/break-cond-parse.c:496 #1 0x1633026 in test ../../src/gdb/break-cond-parse.c:582 #2 0x163391b in create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string_tests ../../src/gdb/break-cond-parse.c:649 #3 0x12cfebc in void std::__invoke_impl<void, void (*&)()>(std::__invoke_other, void (*&)()) /usr/include/c++/13/bits/invoke.h:61 #4 0x12cc8ee in std::enable_if<is_invocable_r_v<void, void (*&)()>, void>::type std::__invoke_r<void, void (*&)()>(void (*&)()) /usr/include/c++/13/bits/invoke.h:111 #5 0x12c81e5 in std::_Function_handler<void (), void (*)()>::_M_invoke(std::_Any_data const&) /usr/include/c++/13/bits/std_function.h:290 #6 0x18bb51d in std::function<void ()>::operator()() const /usr/include/c++/13/bits/std_function.h:591 #7 0x4193ef9 in selftests::run_tests(gdb::array_view<char const* const>, bool) ../../src/gdbsupport/selftest.cc:100 #8 0x21c2206 in maintenance_selftest ../../src/gdb/maint.c:1172 ... etc ... The problem was caused by three lines like this one: thread_info *thr = parse_thread_id (std::string (t.get_value ()).c_str (), &tmptok); After parsing the thread-id TMPTOK would be left pointing into the temporary string which had been created on this line. When on the next line we did this: gdb_assert (*tmptok == '\0'); The value of *TMPTOK is undefined. Fix this by creating the std::string earlier in the scope. Now the contents of the string will remain valid when we check *TMPTOK. The address sanitizer issue is now resolved.

That is, at this line of `minimal_symbol::value_address`, where
`objfile->section_offsets` is an `std::vector`:
return (CORE_ADDR (this->unrelocated_address ())
+ objfile->section_offsets[this->section_index ()]);
A section index of -29445 is suspicious. The minimal_symbol at play
here is:
(top-gdb) p m_name
$1 = 0x521001de10af "_sinittext"
So I restarted debugging, breaking on:
(top-gdb) b general_symbol_info::set_section_index if $_streq("_sinittext", m_name)
And I see that weird -29445 value:
(top-gdb) frame
#0 general_symbol_info::set_section_index (this=0x525000082390, idx=-29445) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/symtab.h:611
611 { m_section = idx; }
But going up one frame, the section index is 36091:
(top-gdb) frame
#1 0x0000555562426526 in minimal_symbol_reader::record_full (this=0x7ffff0ead560, name="_sinittext", copy_name=false,
address=-2111475712, ms_type=mst_text, section=36091) at /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/minsyms.c:1228
1228 msymbol->set_section_index (section);
It seems like the problem is just that the type used for the section
index (short) is not big enough. Change from short to int. If somebody
insists, we could even go long long / int64_t, but I doubt it's
necessary.
With that fixed, I get:

It happens because gdb_bfd_close_or_warn uses a bfd-internal name for
the failing-close warning, after the close is finished, and the name
already freed:
static int
gdb_bfd_close_or_warn (struct bfd *abfd)
{
int ret;
const char *name = bfd_get_filename (abfd);
for (asection *sect : gdb_bfd_sections (abfd))
free_one_bfd_section (sect);
ret = bfd_close (abfd);
if (!ret)
gdb_bfd_close_warning (name,
bfd_errmsg (bfd_get_error ()));
return ret;
}
Fixed by making a copy of the name for the warning.

This commit adds support for a `gstack' command which Fedora has been carrying for many years. gstack is a natural counterpart to the gcore command. Whereas gcore dumps a core file, gstack prints stack traces of a running process. There are many improvements over Fedora's version of this script. The dependency on procfs is gone; gstack will run anywhere gdb runs. The only runtime dependencies are bash and awk. The script includes suggestions from gdb/32325 to include versioning and help. [If this approach to gdb/32325 is acceptable, I could propagate the solution to gcore/gdb-add-index.] I've rewritten the documentation, integrating it into the User Manual. The manpage is now output using this one source. Example run (on x86_64 Fedora 40) $ gstack --help Usage: gstack [-h|--help] [-v|--version] PID Print a stack trace of a running program -h, --help Print this message then exit. -v, --version Print version information then exit. $ gstack -v GNU gstack (GDB) 16.0.50.20241119-git $ gstack 12345678 Process 12345678 not found. $ gstack $(pidof emacs) Thread 6 (Thread 0x7fd5ec1c06c0 (LWP 2491423) "pool-spawner"): #0 0x00007fd6015ca3dd in syscall () at /lib64/libc.so.6 bminor#1 0x00007fd60b31eccd in g_cond_wait () at /lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0 bminor#2 0x00007fd60b28a61b in g_async_queue_pop_intern_unlocked () at /lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0 bminor#3 0x00007fd60b2f1a03 in g_thread_pool_spawn_thread () at /lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0 bminor#4 0x00007fd60b2f0813 in g_thread_proxy () at /lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0 bminor#5 0x00007fd6015486d7 in start_thread () at /lib64/libc.so.6 bminor#6 0x00007fd6015cc60c in clone3 () at /lib64/libc.so.6 bminor#7 0x0000000000000000 in ???

This results in an array view of size 1. The assertion in `frame_register_unwind` that verifies the passed in buffer is larger enough to hold the unwound register value then fails. Fix this by explicitly creating an array view of the right size. Change-Id: Ie170da438ec9085863e7be8b455a067b531635dc Reviewed-by: Thiago Jung Bauermann <thiago.bauermann@linaro.org>

Simplify the .machine directive parsing logic, so that cpu_string is

Consider the test-case sources main.c and foo.c:
$ cat main.c
extern int foo (void);
int
main (void)
{
return foo ();
}
$ cat foo.c
extern int foo (void);
int
foo (void)
{
return 0;
}
and main.c compiled with debug info, and foo.c without:
$ gcc -g main.c -c
$ gcc foo.c -c
$ gcc -g main.o foo.o
In TUI mode, if we run to foo:
$ gdb -q a.out -tui -ex "b foo" -ex run
it gets us "[ No Source Available ]":
┌─main.c─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ │
│ │
│ [ No Source Available ] │
│ │
│ │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
(src) In: foo L?? PC: 0x400566
...
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000400566 in foo ()
(gdb)
But after resizing (pressing ctrl-<minus> in the gnome-terminal), we
get instead the source for main.c:
┌─main.c─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 3 int │
│ 4 main (void) │
│ 5 { │
│ 6 return foo (); │
│ 7 } │
│ │
│ │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
(src) In: foo L?? PC: 0x400566
...
Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000400566 in foo ()
(gdb)
which is inappropriate because we're stopped in function foo, which is
not in main.c.
The problem is that, when the window is resized, GDB ends up calling
tui_source_window_base::rerender. The rerender function has three
cases, one for when the window already has some source code
content (which is not the case here), a case for when the inferior is
active, and we have a selected frame (which is the case that applies
here), and a final case for when the inferior is not running.
For the case which we end up in, the source code window has no
content, but the inferior is running, so we have a selected frame, GDB
calls the get_current_source_symtab_and_line() function to get the
symtab_and_line for the current location.
The get_current_source_symtab_and_line() will actually return the last
recorded symtab and line location, not the current symtab and line
location.
What this means, is that, if the current location has no debug
information, get_current_source_symtab_and_line() will return any
previously recorded location, or failing that, the default (main)
location.
This behaviour of get_current_source_symtab_and_line() also causes
problems for the 'list' command. Consider this pure CLI session:
(gdb) break foo
Breakpoint 1 at 0x40110a
(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/a.out
Breakpoint 1, 0x000000000040110a in foo ()
(gdb) list
1 extern int foo (void);
2
3 int
4 main (void)
5 {
6 return foo ();
7 }
(gdb) list .
Insufficient debug info for showing source lines at current PC (0x40110a).
(gdb)
However, if we look at how GDB's TUI updates the source window during
a normal stop, we see that GDB does a better job of displaying the
expected contents. Going back to our original example, when we start
GDB with:
$ gdb -q a.out -tui -ex "b foo" -ex run
we do get the "[ No Source Available ]" message as expected. Why is
that?
The answer is that, in this case GDB uses tui_show_frame_info to
update the source window, tui_show_frame_info is called each time a
prompt is displayed, like this:
#0 tui_show_frame_info (fi=...) at ../../src/gdb/tui/tui-status.c:269

bminor#8 0x00000000008ffdeb in display_gdb_prompt (new_prompt=0x0) at ../../src/gdb/event-top.c:487
If we look at how tui_show_frame_info figures out what source to
display, it doesn't use get_current_source_symtab_and_line(), instead,
it finds a symtab_and_line directly from a frame_info_pt. This means
we are not dependent on get_current_source_symtab_and_line() returning
the current location (which it does not).
I propose that we change tui_source_window_base::rerender() so that,
for the case we are discussing here (the inferior has a selected
frame, but the source window has no contents), we move away from using
get_current_source_symtab_and_line(), and instead use find_frame_sal
instead, like tui_show_frame_info does.
This means that we will always use the inferior's current location.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

In this code path (particularly this specific cutu_reader constructir),
the work is done to find and read the DWO file. So the language is
properly identifier as language_ada, all good so far.

Here, we use the other cutu_reader constructor, the one that does not
look up the DWO file for the passed CU. If a DWO file exists for this
CU, the caller is expected to pass it as a parameter. That cutu_reader
constructor also ends up setting the language of the CU. But because it
didn't read the DWO file, it didn't figure out the language is
language_ada, so it tries to set the language to the default,
language_minimal.
A question is: why do we end up trying to set the CU's language is this
context. This is completely unrelated to what we're trying to do, that
is get the file names from the line table. Setting the language is a
side-effect of just constructing a cutu_reader, which we need to look up
attributes in dw2_get_file_names_reader. There are probably some
cleanups to be done here, to avoid doing useless work like looking up
and setting the CU's language when all we need is an object to help
reading the DIEs and attributes. But that is future work.
The same cutu_reader constructor is used in
`dwarf2_per_cu::ensure_lang`. Since this is the version of cutu_reader
that does not look up the DWO file, it will conclude that the language
is language_minimal and set that as the CU's language. In other words,
`dwarf2_per_cu::ensure_lang` will get the language wrong, pretty ironic.
Fix this by using the other cutu_reader constructor in those two spots.
Pass `per_objfile->get_cu (this_cu)`, as the `existing_cu` parameter. I
think this is necessary, because that constructor has an assert to check
that if `existing_cu` is nullptr, then there must not be an existing
`dwarf2_cu` in the per_objfile.
To avoid getting things wrong like this, I think that the second
cutu_reader constructor should be reserved for the spots that do pass a
non-nullptr dwo_file. The only spot at the moment in
create_cus_hash_table, where we read multiple units from the same DWO
file. In this context, I guess it makes sense for efficiency to get the
dwo_file once and pass it down to cutu_reader. For that constructor,
make the parameters non-optional, add "non-nullptr" asserts, and update
the code to assume the passed values are not nullptr.
What I don't know is if this change is problematic thread-wise, if the
functions I have modified to use the other cutu_reader constructor can
be called concurrently in worker threads. If so, I think it would be
problematic.

On Debian 12, with gcc 12 and ld 2.40, I get some failures when running:

The exception is then only caught at the event-loop level
(start_event_loop), causing the whole debug info reading process to be
aborted. I think it's a little harsh, considering that a lot of things
could work even if we failed to read macro information.
Catch the exception inside read_file_scope, print the exception, and
carry on. We could go even more fine-grained: if reading the string for
one macro definition fails, we could continue reading the macro
information. Perhaps it's just that one macro definition that is
broken. However, I don't need this level of granularity, so I haven't
attempted this. Also, my experience is that macro reading fails when
the compiler or linker has a bug, in which case pretty much everything
is messed up.
With this patch, it now looks like:
$ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style
Reading symbols from testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style...
(gdb) p main
While reading section .debug_macro.dwo: DW_FORM_strp pointing outside of .debug_str section [in module /home/smarchi/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/style/style]
$1 = {int (int, char **)} 0x684 <main>
(gdb)
In the test I am investigating (gdb.base/style.exp with the fission
board), it allows more tests to run:
-# of expected passes 107
-# of unexpected failures 17
+# of expected passes 448
+# of unexpected failures 19
Of course, we still see the error about the macro information, and some
macro-related tests still fail (those would be kfailed ideally), but
many tests that are not macro-dependent now pass.

When building with gcc, with flags -gdwarf-5, -gsplit-dwarf and
-fdebug-types-section, the resulting .dwo files contain multiple
.debug_info.dwo sections. One for each type unit and one for the
compile unit. This is correct, as per DWARF 5, section F.2.3 ("Contents
of the Split DWARF Object Files"):
The split DWARF object files each contain the following sections:
...
.debug_info.dwo (for the compilation unit)
.debug_info.dwo (one COMDAT section for each type unit)
...
GDB currently assumes that there is a single .debug_info.dwo section,
causing unpredictable behavior. For example, sometimes this crash:

The first time that locate_dwo_sections gets called for a
.debug_info.dwo section, dwo_sections::info gets initialized properly.
The second time it gets called for a .debug_info.dwo section, the size
field in dwo_sections::info gets overwritten with the size of the second
section. But the buffer remains pointing to the contents of the first
section, because the section is already "read in". So the size does not
match the buffer. And even if it did, we would only keep the
information about one .debug_info.dwo, out of the many.
First, add an assert in locate_dwo_sections to make sure we don't
try to fill in a dwo section info twice. Add the assert to other
functions with the same pattern, while at it.
Then, change dwo_sections::info to be a vector of sections (just like we
do for type sections). Update locate_dwo_sections to append to that
vector when seeing a new .debug_info.dwo section. Update
open_and_init_dwo_file to read the units from each section.
The problem can be observed by running some tests with the
dwarf5-fission-debug-types target board. For example,
gdb.base/condbreak.exp crashes (with the ASan failure shown above)
before the patch and passes after).

I decided to try to build and test gdb on Windows.
I found a page on the wiki [1] suggesting three ways of building gdb:
- MinGW,
- MinGW on Cygwin, and
- Cygwin.
I picked Cygwin, because I've used it before (though not recently).
I managed to install Cygwin and sufficient packages to build gdb and start the
testsuite.
However, testsuite progress ground to a halt at gdb.base/branch-to-self.exp.
[ AFAICT, similar problems reported here [2]. ]
I managed to reproduce this hang by running just the test-case.
I attempted to kill the hanging processes by:
- first killing the inferior process, using the cygwin "kill -9" command, and
- then killing the gdb process, likewise.
But the gdb process remained, and I had to point-and-click my way through task
manager to actually kill the gdb process.
I investigated this by attaching to the hanging gdb process. Looking at the
main thread, I saw it was stopped in a call to WaitForSingleObject, with
the dwMilliseconds parameter set to INFINITE.
The backtrace in more detail:

In the docs [3], I read that using an INFINITE argument to WaitForSingleObject
might cause a system deadlock.
This prompted me to try this simple change in wait_for_single:
...
while (true)
{
- DWORD r = WaitForSingleObject (handle, howlong);
+ DWORD r = WaitForSingleObject (handle,
+ howlong == INFINITE ? 100 : howlong);
+ if (howlong == INFINITE && r == WAIT_TIMEOUT)
+ continue;
...
with the timeout of 0.1 second estimated to be:
- small enough for gdb to feel reactive, and
- big enough not to consume too much cpu cycles with looping.
And indeed, the test-case, while still failing, now finishes in ~50 seconds.
While there may be an underlying bug that triggers this behaviour, the failure
mode is so severe that I consider it a bug in itself.
Fix this by avoiding calling WaitForSingleObject with INFINITE argument.
Tested on x86_64-cygwin, by running the testsuite past the test-case.

I believe the problem is that lwp_info::syscall_state is never
initialized. Fix that by initializing it with TARGET_WAITKIND_IGNORE.
This is the value we use elsewhere when resetting this field to mean
"not stopped at a syscall".

When running a program that uses multiple linker namespaces, I get

Some namespace IDs for the dynamic linker entries (ld-linux) are wrong
(I placed a ! next to those that are wrong).
The dynamic linker is special: it is loaded only once (notice how all
ld-linux entries have the same addresses), but it is visible in all
namespaces. It is therefore listed separately in all namespaces.
The problem happens like this:
- for each solib, print_solib_list_table calls solib_ops::find_solib_ns
to get the namespace ID to print
- svr4_solib_ops::find_solib_ns calls find_debug_base_for_solib
- find_debug_base_for_solib iterates on the list of solibs in all
namespaces, looking for a match for the given solib. For this, it
uses svr4_same, which compares two SOs by name and low address.
Because there are entries for the dynamic linker in all namespaces,
with the same low address, find_debug_base_for_solib is unable to
distinguish them, and sometimes returns the wrong namespace.
To fix this, save in lm_info_svr4 the debug base address that this
lm/solib comes from, as a way to distinguish two solibs that would be
otherwise identical.
The code changes are:
- Add a constructor to lm_info_svr4 accepting the debug base. Update
all callers, which sometimes requires passing down the debug base.
- Modify find_debug_base_for_solib to return the debug base directly
from lm_info_svr4.
- Modify svr4_same to consider the debug base value of the two
libraries before saying they are the same. While at it, move the
address checks before the name check, since they are likely less
expensive to do.
- Modify svr4_solib_ops::default_debug_base to update the debug base of
existing solibs when the default debug base becomes known.
I found the last point to be necessary, because when running an
inferior, we list the shared libraries very early (before the first
instruction):
#0 svr4_solib_ops::current_sos (this=0x7c1ff1e09710)
bminor#1 0x00005555643c774e in update_solib_list (from_tty=0)
bminor#2 0x00005555643ca377 in solib_add (pattern=0x0, from_tty=0, readsyms=1)
bminor#3 0x0000555564335585 in svr4_solib_ops::enable_break (this=0x7c1ff1e09710, info=0x7d2ff1de8c40, from_tty=0)
bminor#4 0x000055556433c85c in svr4_solib_ops::create_inferior_hook (this=0x7c1ff1e09710, from_tty=0)
bminor#5 0x00005555643d22cb in solib_create_inferior_hook (from_tty=0)
bminor#6 0x000055556337071b in post_create_inferior (from_tty=0, set_pspace_solib_ops=true)
bminor#7 0x00005555633726a2 in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=0, run_how=RUN_NORMAL)
bminor#8 0x0000555563372b35 in run_command (args=0x0, from_tty=0)
At this point, the dynamic linker hasn't yet filled the DT_DEBUG slot,
which normally points at the base of r_debug. Since we're unable to
list shared libraries at this point, we go through
svr4_solib_ops::default_sos, which creates an solib entry for the
dynamic linker. At this point, we have no choice but to create it with
a debug base of 0 (or some other value that indicates "unknown"). If we
left it as-is, then it would later not be recognized to be part of any
existing namespace and that would cause problems down the line.
With this change, the namespaces of the dynamic linker become correct.
I was not sure if the code in library_list_start_library was conflating
debug base and lmid. The documentation says this about the "lmid" field
in the response of a qxfer:libraries-svr4:read packet:
lmid, which is an identifier for a linker namespace, such as the
memory address of the r_debug object that contains this namespace’s
load map or the namespace identifier returned by dlinfo (3).
When I read "lmid", I typically think about "the namespace identifier
returned by dlinfo (3)". In library_list_start_library, we use the
value of the "lmid" attribute as the debug base address. This is the
case even before this patch, since we do:
solist = &list->solib_lists[lmid];
The key for the solib_lists map is documented as being the debug base
address. In practice, GDBserver uses the debug base address for the
"lmid" field, so we're good for now.
If the remote side instead used "the namespace identifier returned by
dlinfo (3)" (which in practice with glibc are sequential integers
starting at 0), I think we would be mostly fine. If we use the qxfer
packet to read the libraries, we normally won't use the namespace base
address to do any memory reads, as all the information comes from the
XML. There might be some problems however because we treat the
namespace 0 specially, for instance in
svr4_solib_ops::update_incremental. In that case, we might need a
different way of indicating that the remote side does not give namespace
information than using namespace 0. This is just a thought for the
future.
I improved the existing test gdb.base/dlmopen-ns-ids.exp to verify that
"info sharedlibrary" does not show duplicate libraries, duplicate
meaning same address range, namespace and name.

What happens here is the following: - the gdbpy_enter constructor attempts to set the current extension language to python using set_active_ext_lang - set_active_ext_lang attempts to lock ext_lang_mutex - while doing so, it is interrupted by sigint_wrapper (the SIGINT handler), handling a SIGINT - sigint_wrapper calls handle_sigint, which calls set_quit_flag, which also tries to lock ext_lang_mutex - since std::recursive_mutex::lock is not async-signal-safe, things go wrong, resulting in a hang.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/extension.c:755 in \ set_active_ext_lang(extension_language_defn const*) ... The problem here is that gdb.interrupt is called from a worker thread, and its implementation, gdbpy_interrupt races with the main thread on some variable. The fix presented here is based on the fix that Tom proposed, but fills in the missing Mingw support. The problem is basically split into two: hosts that support unix like signals, and Mingw, which doesn't support signals. For signal supporting hosts, I've adopted the approach that Tom suggests, gdbpy_interrupt uses kill() to send SIGINT to the GDB process. This is then handled in the main thread as if the user had pressed Ctrl+C. For these hosts no locking is required, so the existing lock is removed. However, everywhere the lock currently exists I've added an assert: gdb_assert (is_main_thread ()); If this assert ever triggers then we're setting or reading the quit flag on a worker thread, this will be a problem without the mutex. For Mingw, the current mutex is retained. This is fine as there are no signals, so no chance of the mutex acquisition being interrupted by a signal, and so, deadlock shouldn't be an issue. To manage the complexity of when we need an assert, and when we need the mutex, I've created 'struct ext_lang_guard', which can be used as a RAII object. This object either performs the assertion check, or acquires the mutex, depending on the host.

this relaxation aims to relax ie to le whenever there are no weakdefinitions and we arent required to get definitions from shared_lib.
