In response to a public outcry the strings program now defaults to using the
--all option which displays text from anywhere in the input file(s). The
default used to be --data, which only displays text from loadable data sections,
but this requires the use of the BFD library. Since the BFD library almost
certainly still contains buffer overrun and/or memory corruption bugs, and
since the strings program is often used to examine malicious code, it was
decided that the --data option option represents a possible security risk.

Skip tests that use cd for remote hosts
Several GDB tests change directory before compiling the test program
in order to test source file names that include directories. This
doesn't work on a remote host because default_target_compile in
DejaGnu's target.exp copies each source file with
"[remote_download host $x]" which uses "[file tail $file] to strip
off the directory of each file. If the source directory is remote
mounted on the host, this also leaves copied files in the source
directory.
A similar skip is already used in gdb.test/fullname.exp:
# We rely on being able to copy things around.
if { [is_remote host] } {
untested "setting breakpoints by full path"
return -1
}
This patch causes three GDB tests that use "cd" to be skipped for a
remote host. For gdb.base/fullpath-expand.exp this eliminates two
failures and prevents the test from leaving files fullpath-expand.c
and fullpath-expand-func.c in gdb/testsuite. For
gdb.base/realname-expand.exp it eliminates two failures. For
gdb.linespec/macro-relative.exp it prevents file macro-relative.c
from being left in gdb/testsuite/gdb.linespec/base/two.

This PR shows that GDB can easily trigger an assertion here, in

5392 /* Did we find the stepping thread? */

5395 /* Yep. There should only one though. */

5406 gdb_assert (!schedlock_applies (currently_stepping (tp)));
5407
5408 stepping_thread = tp;
5409 }
The way the assertion is written is assuming that with schedlock=step
we'll always leave threads other than the one with the stepping range
locked, while that's not true with the "next" command. With schedlock
"step", other threads still run unlocked when "next" detects a
function call and steps over it. Whether that makes sense or not,
still, it's documented that way in the manual. If another thread hits
an event that doesn't cause a stop while the nexting thread steps over
a function call, we'll get here and fail the assertion.
The fix is just to adjust the assertion. Even though we found the
stepping thread, we'll still step-over the breakpoint that just
triggered correctly.
Surprisingly, gdb.threads/schedlock.exp doesn't have any test that
steps over a function call. This commits fixes that. This ensures
that "next" doesn't switch focus to another thread, and checks whether
other threads run locked or not, depending on scheduler locking mode
and command. There's a lot of duplication in that file that this ends
cleaning up. There's more that could be cleaned up, but that would
end up an unrelated change, best done separately.
This new coverage in schedlock.exp happens to trigger the internal
error in question, like so:

FAIL: gdb.threads/schedlock.exp: schedlock=step: cmd=next: call_function=1: current thread advanced - unlocked (wrong amount)
That's because we have more than one thread running the same loop, and
while one thread is stepping over a function call, the other thread
hits the step-resume breakpoint of the first, which needs to be
stepped over, and we end up in switch_back_to_stepped_thread exactly
in the problem case.
I think a simpler and more directed test is also useful, to not rely
on internal breakpoint magics. So this commit also adds a test that
has a thread trip on a conditional breakpoint that doesn't cause a
user-visible stop while another thread is stepping over a call. That

The problem is that installing the input handler callback also preps
the terminal, putting it in raw mode and with echo disabled, which is
bad if we're going to call a command that assumes cooked/canonical
mode, and echo enabled, like in the case of the PR, Python's
interactive shell. Another example I came up with that doesn't depend
on Python is starting a subshell with "(gdb) shell /bin/sh" from a
multi-line command. Tests covering both these examples are added.
The fix is to revert the original fix for PR gdb/17072, and instead
restore the callback handler after processing an asynchronous target
event.
Furthermore, calling rl_callback_handler_install when we already have
some input in readline's line buffer discards that input, which is
obviously a bad thing to do while the user is typing. No specific
test is added for that, because I first tried calling it even if the
callback handler was still installed and that resulted in hundreds of
failures in the testsuite.

Prepare directory in case test_system fails
In gdb.base/fileio.c, some functions may depend on others. For
example, test_rename renames a file to one directory which is created
in test_system. That is means, if test_system fails, test_rename

needed for test_rename. In this patch, we use dejagnu remote_exec
proc to create these directories on host.

When computing the address related to str.adb:4, GDB correctly
resolves it to 0x0800001e first, but then considers the next
3 instructions as being part of the prologue because it thinks
they are part of stack-protector code. As a result, instead
of inserting the breakpoint at line 4, it skips those instruction
and consequently the rest of the instructions until the start
of the next line, which his line 7.
The stack-protector code is expected to start like this...
... but the implementation actually accepts a sequence where
the ldr location points to an address for which there is no symbol.
It only aborts if the address points to a symbol which is not
__stack_chk_guard.
Since the __stack_chk_guard symbol is always expected to exist
when used (it lives in .dynsym), this patch fixes the issue by
requiring that the ldr gets the address of the __stack_chk_guard
symbol. If the address could not be resolved, then it rejects
the sequence as being stack-protector code.

Fix skipping stack protector on arm
This patch fixes the bug in my patch skipping stack protector
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-12/msg00110.html
In my skipping stack protector patch, I misunderstood the constant vs.
immediate on instruction encodings, and treated immediate as constant
by mistake. The instruction 'ldr Rd, [PC, #immed]' loads the
address of __stack_chk_guard to Rd, and #immed is an offset from PC.
We should get the __stack_chk_guard from *(pc + #immed).
As a result of this mistake, arm_analyze_load_stack_chk_guard returns
the wrong address of __stack_chk_guard, and the symbol
__stack_chk_guard can't be found. However, we continue to match the
following instructions when symbol isn't found, so the code still
works. In other words, the code just matches the instruction pattern
without checking __stack_chk_guard symbol correctly.
Joel's patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-10/msg00605.html>
makes the heuristics stricter that we stop matching instructions if
symbol __stack_chk_guard isn't found. Then the bug is exposed. This
patch is to correct the load address computation for ldr instruction,
and it fixes some fails in gdb.mi/gdb792.exp on armv4t both arm and
thumb mode.

PR gdb/12623: non-stop crashes inferior, PC adjustment and 1-byte insns
TL;DR - if we step an instruction that is as long as
decr_pc_after_break (1-byte on x86) right after removing the
breakpoint at PC, in non-stop mode, adjust_pc_after_break adjusts the
PC, but it shouldn't.
In non-stop mode, when a breakpoint is removed, it is moved to the
"moribund locations" list. This is because other threads that are
running may have tripped on that breakpoint as well, and we haven't
heard about it. When a trap is reported, we check if perhaps it was
such a deleted breakpoint that caused the trap. If so, we also need
to adjust the PC (decr_pc_after_break).
Now, say that, on x86:
- a breakpoint was placed at an address where we have an instruction
of the same length as decr_pc_after_break on this arch (1 on x86).
- the breakpoint is removed, and thus put on the moribund locations
list.
- the thread is single-stepped.
As there's no breakpoint inserted at PC anymore, the single-step
actually executes the 1-byte instruction normally. GDB should _not_
adjust the PC for the resulting SIGTRAP. But, adjust_pc_after_break
confuses the step SIGTRAP reported for this single-step as being a
SIGTRAP for the moribund location of the breakpoint that used to be at
the previous PC, and so infrun applies the decr_pc_after_break
adjustment incorrectly.
The confusion comes from the special case mentioned in the comment:
static void
adjust_pc_after_break (struct execution_control_state *ecs)
{
...
As a special case, we could have hardware single-stepped a
software breakpoint. In this case (prev_pc == breakpoint_pc),
we also need to back up to the breakpoint address. */
The condition that incorrectly triggers is the
"ecs->event_thread->prev_pc == breakpoint_pc" one.
Afterwards, the next resume resume re-executes an instruction that had
already executed, which if you're lucky, results in the inferior
crashing. If you're unlucky, you'll get silent bad behavior...
The fix is to remember that we stepped a breakpoint. Turns out the
only case we step a breakpoint instruction today isn't covered by the
testsuite. It's the case of a 'handle nostop" signal arriving while a
step is in progress _and_ we have a software watchpoint, which forces
always single-stepping. This commit extends sigstep.exp to cover
that, and adds a new test for the adjust_pc_after_break issue.

Test for PR gdb/17511, spurious SIGTRAP after stepping into+in signal handler
I noticed that when I single-step into a signal handler with a
pending/queued signal, the following single-steps while the program is
in the signal handler leave $eflags.TF set. That means subsequent
continues will trap after one instruction, resulting in a spurious
SIGTRAP being reported to the user.
This is a kernel bug; I've reported it to kernel devs (turned out to
be a known bug). I'm seeing it on x86_64 Fedora 20 (Linux
3.16.4-200.fc20.x86_64), and I was told it's still not fixed upstream.
This commit extends gdb.base/sigstep.exp to cover this use case,
xfailed.
Here's what the bug looks like:
(gdb) start
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at si-handler.c:48
48 setup ();
(gdb) next
50 global = 0; /* set break here */
Let's queue a signal, so we can step into the handler:
(gdb) handle SIGUSR1
Signal Stop Print Pass to program Description
SIGUSR1 Yes Yes Yes User defined signal 1
(gdb) queue-signal SIGUSR1
TF is not set:
(gdb) display $eflags
1: $eflags = [ PF ZF IF ]
Now step into the handler -- "si" does PTRACE_SINGLESTEP+SIGUSR1:

31 {
1: $eflags = [ PF ZF IF ]

(gdb) si

... ends up with TF left set. This results in PTRACE_CONTINUE
trapping after each instruction is executed:
(gdb) c

(gdb)
Note that even another PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does not fix it:
(gdb) si
33 }
1: $eflags = [ PF ZF TF IF ]
(gdb)
Eventually, it gets "fixed" by the rt_sigreturn syscall, when
returning out of the handler:

The bug doesn't happen if we instead PTRACE_CONTINUE into the signal
handler -- e.g., set a breakpoint in the handler, queue a signal, and
"continue".

gdb.base/sigstep.exp: cleanup and make it easier to extend
Hacking on sigstep.exp, I found it harder to understand and extend
than ideal.
- GDB is currently not restarted between the different
tests/combinations in the file, and some parts of the tests' setup
are done on the top level, and shared between tests. It's not
trivial to understand which breakpoints each test procedure expects
to be set or not set. And it's not trivial to disable parts of the
test if you want quickly try out just a subset of the tests
(running the whole file takes a bit).
- Because GDB is currently not restarted between tests, if some test
triggers a ptrace/kernel bug, the following tests may end up with
cascading fails. That makes it hard to add a test to cover a
kernel bug that isn't fixed yet, with a xfail/kfail. E.g,. note
how with kernels with bug gdb/8744 (stepi over sigreturn syscall
exits program) the test program exits, and nothing restarts it
afterwards...
- The manual test message prefix management gets a bit in the way.
Nowadays, we have with_test_prefix which makes it simpler.
- 'i' is used as parameter name in the various procedures, meaning
'the command the test', which isn't as obvious as it could.
This commit addresses all that.

As remote_update_thread_list deletes threads from GDB's list that are

that GDB deletes the "fake" main thread that GDB added itself. (As

stepi/nexti: skip signal handler if "handle nostop" signal arrives
I noticed that "si" behaves differently when a "handle nostop" signal
arrives while the step is in progress, depending on whether the
program was stopped at a breakpoint when "si" was entered.
Specifically, in case GDB needs to step off a breakpoint, the handler
is skipped and the program stops in the next "mainline" instruction.
Otherwise, the "si" stops in the first instruction of the signal
handler.
I was surprised the testsuite doesn't catch this difference. Turns
out gdb.base/sigstep.exp covers a bunch of cases related to stepping
and signal handlers, but does not test stepi nor nexti, only
step/next/continue.
My first reaction was that stopping in the signal handler was the
correct thing to do, as it's where the next user-visible instruction
that is executed is. I considered then "nexti" -- a signal handler
could be reasonably considered a subroutine call to step over, it'd
seem intuitive to me that "nexti" would skip it.
But then, I realized that signals that arrive while a plain/line
"step" is in progress _also_ have their handler skipped. A user might
well be excused for being confused by this, given:
(gdb) help step
Step program until it reaches a different source line.
And the signal handler's sources will be in different source lines,
after all.
I think that having to explain that "stepi" steps into handlers, (and
that "nexti" wouldn't according to my reasoning above), while "step"
does not, is a sign of an awkward interface.
E.g., if a user truly is interested in stepping into signal handlers,
then it's odd that she has to either force the signal to "handle
stop", or recall to do "stepi" whenever such a signal might be
delivered. For that use case, it'd seem nicer to me if "step" also
stepped into handlers.
This suggests to me that we either need a global "step-into-handlers"
setting, or perhaps better, make "handle pass/nopass stop/nostop
print/noprint" have have an additional axis - "handle
stepinto/nostepinto", so that the user could configure whether
handlers for specific signals should be stepped into.
In any case, I think it's simpler (and thus better) for all step
commands to behave the same. This commit thus makes "si/ni" skip
handlers for "handle nostop" signals that arrive while the command was
already in progress, like step/next do.
To be clear, nothing changes if the program was stopped for a signal,
and the user enters a stepping command _then_ -- GDB still steps into
the handler. The change concerns signals that don't cause a stop and
that arrive while the step is in progress.

printing "vfork" instead of "fork" for all vfork-related messages,

Previously in this case the only message was notification of attaching

If testing is run sequentially, file ${srcdir}/${subdir}/pi.txt is
copied to ${objdir}/${subdir}/pi.txt. However, ${objdir} is ${srcdir}

Fix the gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.exp test on MIPS
This patch fixes the failures that occur with the
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dir-file-name.exp test on 64-bit MIPS and compressed
MIPS ISAs (i.e. MIPS16 and microMIPS).
The failures on 64-bit occur because the generated DWARF address
information is always 32-bit, which causes the upper 32-bits of
addresses to be truncated and causes breakpoints to be set on the
wrong address if any of the upper 32-bits are non-zero. I suspect
that other 64-bit architectures get away with it because they
place all their instructions at a VMA lower than 2^32 by default.
This patch causes 64-bit addresses to be generated if a 64-bit
target is detected.
The failures on MIPS16 and microMIPS occur because the breakpoint
address needs to have the LSB set to 1 (used to indicate that the
code is compressed). However, the function name is interpreted as
a data label, causing GDB to set breakpoints at even addresses.
This is fixed by explicitly adding a '.insn' directive (see
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/MIPS-insn.html) after the
label on MIPS only.

PowerPC64 ELFv1 function symbol definition vs LTO and discarded sections
When functions are emitted in comdat groups, global symbols defined in
duplicates of the group are treated as if they were undefined. That
prevents the symbols in the discarded sections from affecting the
linker's global symbol hash table or causing duplicate symbol errors.
Annoyingly, when gcc emits a function to a comdat group, it does not
put *all* of a function's code and data in the comdat group.
Typically, constant tables, exception handling info, and debug info
are emitted to normal sections outside of the group, which is a
perennial source of linker problems due to the special handling needed
to deal with the extra-group pieces that ought to be discarded. In
the case of powerpc64-gcc, the OPD entry for a function is not put in
the group. Since the function symbol is defined on the OPD entry this
means we need to handle symbols in .opd specially.
To see how this affects LTO in particular, consider the linker
testcase PR ld/12942 (1). This testcase links an LTO object file
pr12942a.o with a normal (non-LTO) object pr12942b.o. Both objects
contain a definition for _Z4testv in a comdat group. On loading
pr12942a.o, the linker sees a comdat group (actually linkonce section)
for _Z4testv and a weak _Z4testv defined in the IR. On loading
pr12942b.o, the linker sees the same comdat group, and thus discards
it. However, _Z4testv is a weak symbol defined in .opd, not part of
the group, so this weak symbol overrides the weak IR symbol. On
(re)loading the LTO version of pr12942a.o, the linker sees another
weak _Z4testv, but this one does not override the value we have from
pr12942b.o. The result is a linker complaint about "`_Z4testv'
... defined in discarded section `.group' of tmpdir/pr12942b.o".
* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_add_symbol_hook): If function code
section for function symbols defined in .opd is discarded, let
the symbol appear to be undefined.
(opd_entry_value): Ensure the result section is that for the
function code section in the same object as the OPD entry.

Fix PR17493, attempted output of *GAS `reg' section* symbol
The write.c change is to make gas report an error if reg_section
symbols should leak in future. The tc-i386.c change is the real fix.
Note that the error isn't the most helpful, "redefined symbol cannot
be used on reloc", but I'm not inclined to improve what is really an
internal gas error. reg_section symbols shouldn't leak..
