Given the recent CVE filed for GDB (CVE-2024-36699), I decided to update
the gdb/SECURITY.txt to be more explicit about some details. Specifically,
we now explicitly say that internal errors aren't security
vulnerabilities, and mention that users should review plugins before
running them, and under which conditions a plugin can cause a security
bug.

[gdb/tdep] Use std::array in amd64-windows-tdep.c
I noticed commit 84786372e1c ("Fix size of register buffer") fixing a

...
- gdb_byte buf[8];

/* Deprecated overload of the above. */
void cooked_write (int regnum, const gdb_byte *src);

Fix signal unsafe call inside a signal
It can easily happen that the signal handler function

The problematic functions are `_` and `strsignal` which

Unfortunately when compiled with --disable-libbacktrace a
different code path is used, that calls the glibc function
`backtrace` which calls `malloc` and `free` and is therefore

ld/ELF: Add --image-base command line option to the ELF linker
LLD has dropped the option -Ttext-segment for specifying image base
addresses, instead forcing the use of the --image-base option for both
ELF and PE targets. As it stands, GNU LD and LLVM LLD are incompatible,
having two different options for the same functionality.
This patch enables the use of --image-base on ELF targets, advancing
consistency and compatibility.
Moreover, a new test has been added to ensure -z separate-code behaviour
when used with -Ttext-segment stays the same. When this combination is
used, -Ttext-segment sets the address of the first segment (R), not the
text segment (RX), and like with -z noseparate-code, no segments lesser
than the specified address are created. If this behaviour was to change,
the first (R) segment of the ELF file would begin in a lesser address
than the specified text (RX) segment, breaking traditional use of this
option for specifying image base address.

fortran: Fix arrays of variable length strings for FORTRAN
Before this change resolve_dynamic_array_or_string was called for
all TYPE_CODE_ARRAY and TYPE_CODE_STRING types, but, in the end,
this function always called create_array_type_with_stride, which
creates a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY type.
Suppose we have
subroutine vla_array (arr1, arr2)
character (len=*):: arr1 (:)
character (len=5):: arr2 (:)
The "print arr1" and "print arr2" command at the "break-here" line
gives the following output:
(gdb) print arr1
$1 = <incomplete type>
(gdb) print arr2
$2 = ('abcde', 'abcde', 'abcde')
(gdb) ptype arr1
type = Type
End Type
(gdb) ptype arr2
type = character*5 (3)
Dwarf info using Intel® Fortran Compiler for such case contains following:
<1><fd>: Abbrev Number: 12 (DW_TAG_string_type)
<fe> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xd2): .str.ARR1
<102> DW_AT_string_length: 3 byte block: 97 23 8 (DW_OP_push_object_address; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 8)
After this change resolve_dynamic_array_or_string now calls
create_array_type_with_stride or create_string_type, so if the
incoming dynamic type is a TYPE_CODE_STRING then we'll get back a
TYPE_CODE_STRING type. Now gdb shows following:
(gdb) p arr1
$1 = ('abddefghij', 'abddefghij', 'abddefghij', 'abddefghij', 'abddefghij')
(gdb) p arr2
$2 = ('abcde', 'abcde', 'abcde')
(gdb) ptype arr1
type = character*10 (5)
(gdb) ptype arr2
type = character*5 (3)
In case of GFortran, compiler emits DW_TAG_structure_type for string type
arguments of the subroutine and it has only DW_AT_declaration tag. This
results in <incomplete type> in gdb. So, following issue is raised in gcc
bugzilla "https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101826".
Fixing above issue introduce regression in gdb.fortran/mixed-lang-stack.exp,
i.e. the test forces the language to C/C++ and print a Fortran string value.
The string value is a dynamic type with code TYPE_CODE_STRING.
Before this commit the dynamic type resolution would always convert this to
a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY of characters, which the C value printing could handle.
But now after this commit we get a TYPE_CODE_STRING, which
neither the C value printing, or the generic value printing code can
support. And so, I've added support for TYPE_CODE_STRING to the generic
value printing, all characters of strings are printed together till the
first null character.
Lastly, in gdb.opt/fortran-string.exp and gdb.fortran/string-types.exp
tests it expects type of character array in 'character (3)' format but now
after this change we get 'character*3', so tests are updated accordingly.

This commit adds recording support for the AVX instruction vzeroupper,
which zeroes the high bits of ymm registers 0..15. In the programmer's

We record ymm_h registers since only the higher bits are touched, and
that reduces the memory footprint of the instruction.
This instruction is tested differently as we want to confirm we're only
saving the relevant registers, and we want to ensure we're saving
all of them, so it makes use of "maint print record-instruction" to see
exactly what was recorded.

All these instructions are encoded the exact same way, and only affect

It also updates the test gdb.reverse/i386-avx-reverse.exp to test these

The instruction is supposed to always use the 3-byte VEX prefix, but I

This patch adds a test with many different uses for both vmovd and

This new function will temporarily set the current thread as "not

most AVX/AVX2 instructions would benefit from recording ymm registers.
The new helper also handles unsupported instructions so that the largest

gdb: Allow replayed threads to read and write pseudo registers
In an effort to support AVX instructions when recording, we need to
allow replaying threads to access pseudo registers. Currently, if
we try to do that gdb will fail in a call to validate_registers_access,
because the thread is executing so GDB thinks it is unsafe to read
pseudo registers.
When replaying, the thread is really executing for all intents and
purposes, but the execution is just having GDB change values on
registers, so it will always be safe to read and write pseudo registers.
This commit changes functions that check for register access to allow
access when we are replaying. The check to whether we are replaying must
not happen when writing a core file, as record_full_list could be nullptr,
so we only check it if the thread is executing.
As of this commit, I don't know of a way to trigger this commit without
AVX support on record, so a test isn't provided. However, as soon as
record-full supports saving ymm registers, the AVX tests will test this

This adds some per-BFD locking to gdb_bfd_map_section and

The current BFD threading model is that only BFD globals will be
locked, so any multi-threaded use of a BFD has to be handled specially

gdb/testsuite: introduce dwarf5 option to gdb_compile
A few tests on the testsuite require dwarf5 to work. Up until now, the
way to do this was to explicitly add the command line flag -gdwarf-5.
This isn't very portable, in case a compiler requires a different flag
to emit dwarf5.
This commit adds a new option to gdb_compile that would be able to add
the correct flag (if known) or error out in case we are unable to tell
which flag to use. It also changes the existing tests to use this
general option instead of hard coding -gdwarf-5.

Implement 'Object_Size
This patch started as an attempt to allow the 'Size attribute to be
applied to types, and not just objects.
However, that turns out to be difficult due to the Ada semantcs of
'Size. In particular, Ada requires 'Size to denote the size of the
representation of the value, so for example Boolean'Size must be 1.
Implementing this properly requires information not readily available
to gdb... and while we could synthesize this information in many
cases, it also seemed to me that this wasn't strictly very useful when
debugging.
So instead, this patch adds support for the 'Object_Size attribute,
which is somewhat closer to 'sizeof'.
Note also that while 'Object_Size is defined for some dynamic types, I
chose not to implement this here, as again this information is not
readily available -- and I think it's preferable to error than to
print something that might be incorrect.

- in run_under_shell, a vfork is issued
- in the vfork child, execl executes the kill command
- in the vfork parent, waitpid is called to wait for the result of the kill
command
- waitpid returns -1 with errno set to EINTR
- run_under_shell doesn't check the result of waitpid, and returns the
value of local variable status. Since waitpid returned -1, status was
not assigned a value, so it's uninitialized, and happens to be
non-zero
- the breakpoint condition evaluates to true, because
$_shell("kill -INT <pid-of-gdb>") != 0
- the breakpoint triggers a stop, which the test-case doesn't expect.

As gdbreplay communicates with GDB, it outputs all the remote
protocol communication it reads from the remotelogfile to stderr.
This patch disables this behavior by default but adds the new
--debug-logging option which turns printing the packets
to stderr on again.
The motivation for this change is to make it possible to use
gdbreplay with TCL tests. Printing the whole remotelog file out
seems to overflow the expect cache wich causes gdbreplay to not
to get the packet its expects and results in going out of sync
with GDB. Other motivation is making communication between GDB
and gdbreplay faster as printing bigger remotelogfile takes
considerable amount of time.

If you check out infrun.c and look in handle_signal_stop for the call
to skip_inline_frames then you'll find a rather large comment that
explains that we don't always compute the inline state information for
performance reasons. So the assertion is not valid.
I've updated the code so that if there is cached information we use
that, but if there is not then we just create our own information for
the current $pc of the current thread.
This means that, if there is cached information, GDB still correctly
shows which frame the inferior is in (it might not be in the inner
most frame).
If there is no cached information we will always display the inferior
as being in the inner most frame, but that's OK, because if
skip_inline_frames has not been called then GDB will have told the
user they are in the inner most frame, so everything lines up.
I've extended the test to check 'maint info inline-frames' after a
stepi which would previously have triggered the assertion.

[gdb/testsuite] Fix gdb.ada/fixed_points.exp for gcc < 10
When running test-case gdb.ada/fixed_points.exp with system gcc 7, I run
into:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/fixed_points.exp: scenario=all: print fp4_var / 1
get_compiler_info: gcc-7-5-0
p Float(Another_Fixed) = Float(Another_Delta * 5)^M
No definition of "another_delta" in current context.^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/fixed_points.exp: scenario=all: value of another_fixed
...
This is a regression since commit 1411185a57e ("Introduce and use
gnat_version_compare"), which did:
...
# This failed before GCC 10.
- if {$scenario == "all" && [test_compiler_info {gcc-10-*}]} {
+ if {$scenario == "all" && [gnat_version_compare < 10]} {
gdb_test "p Float(Another_Fixed) = Float(Another_Delta * 5)" "true" \
"value of another_fixed"
}
...
Fix this by using gnat_version_compare >= 10 instead.

LoongArch: Check PC-relative relocations for shared libraries
Building shared libraries should not be allowed for PC-relative
relocations against external symbols.
Currently LoongArch has no corresponding checks and silently
generates wrong shared libraries.
However, In the first version of the medium cmodel, pcalau12i+jirl was
used for function calls, in which case PC-relative relocations were
allowed.

Assertion fail at peicode.h:607
This is the assertion that vars->string_ptr < vars->end_string_ptr,
ie. when it fails we've overflowed the string buffer area. Caused by
allocating space for import_name but writing symbol_name, and they can
be different.
