Aarch64 SVE: Support changing vector lengths in gdbserver
There are two parts to this patch - gdbserver and GDB.
In gdbserver, there needs to be an equivalent of the thread_architecture
method used in GDB. In regcache, validate the tdesc with the
use target_validate_tdesc target function. If this fails then re-obtain
the target descriptor via general setup.
The aarch64 validation step simply checks the value of the VG register to
see if it matches the current kernel value.
In GDB, we have a similar check when receiving a stop reply. Validate the
tdesc using gdbarch_target_description_changed_p. If this fails re-obtain
the target descriptor via general setup - which is done by setting up an
tdep info structure containing the vector length.
The aarch64 validation step checks the value of VG (which is marked as
an expediated register, so is in the stop reply).
Alan Hayward [Wed, 7 Nov 2018 15:15:24 +0000 (15:15 +0000)]
Add gdbserver target methods target_validate_tdesc and arch_setup
target_validate_tdesc () is added as a new target function.
This function checks current target description is still valid for the
current inferior, returning false if not. On SVE, we need to check if the
vector length has changed - if it has then the current target descriptor
will need to be switched to a valid one.
The existing arch_setup () is extended to be a target function.
This will later allow it to be called from get_thread_regcache () in
gdbserver/regcache.c. This call is required to generate a new target
descriptor if we have decided the current one is no longer valid.

Aarch64 SVE: Support changing vector lengths for ptrace
When writing registers to the kernel, check if regcache VG has been changed. If
so then update the thread's vector length. If required, resize the registers
in the kernel dump before writing it back.
When reading registers from the kernel, ensure regcache VG register is updated.
The regcache registers should already be of the correct length.
A potential dereference of a NULL pointer was introduced if a
DW_TAG_base_type is missing a DW_AT_name attribute.
I have taken this opportunity to fix a slight confusion that existed
in the test also added in the above commit, the test had two C
variables, declared like this:
int var_a = 5;
void *var_ptr = &var_a;
However, the fake DWARF in the test script declared them like this:
void var_a = 5;
void *var_ptr = &var_a;
This wasn't a problem as the test never uses 'var_a' directly, this
only exists so 'var_ptr' can be initialised. However, it seemed worth
fixing.
I've also added a test for a DW_TAG_base_type with a missing
DW_AT_name, as clearly there's not test currently that covers this
(the original patch tested cleanly). I can confirm that the new test
causes GDB to crash before this patch, and passes with this patch.

enough in some cases despite testcases getting added (which then were

of that of neighboring templates.
For the moment SSE2AVX templates are left alone, as it isn't clear
whether they were intentionally left untouched by the original commits

In this context I question the decision in commit 0375113302 ("x86: Add

value of the W bit ahead of the decision whether to use 2-byte VEX:
While I can see this as one possible interpretation of -mvexwig=, the
other alternative (setting the value of the bit only if it actually
exists in the encoding) looks as reasonable to me, and perhaps even more
in line with us generally trying to pick the shortest encoding.

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

Commit
e418a61a67a ("Move mkdir_recursive to common/filestuff.c")
moved this code, but also removed the HAVE_MKDTEMP guard which prevented
the mkdtemp call to be compiled on mingw.
We can either put back the HAVE_MKDTEMP ifdef, or import the gnulib
mkdtemp module, which provides the function for mingw. Since the
mkdir_recursive is susceptible to be used on mingw at some point, I
think it would be nice to have it tested on mingw, so I did the latter.
Once built, I tested it on Windows (copied the resulting gdb.exe on a
Windows machine, ran it, and ran "maint selftest mkdir_recursive"). It
failed, because the temporary directory is hardcoded to "/tmp/...". I
therefore added and used a new get_standard_temp_dir function, which
returns an appropriate temporary directory for the host platform.
run_dump_test proposes an ld action but when trying to make use of it in

binutils-common.exp and defined the variable needed in the various
default.exp of testsuite that seem to be using run_dump_test.
Since check_shared_lib_support itself references the ld variable not

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

it is still possible for GDB to be a bit more robust here and make

So function 'function_foo' has void return type, but still has a
DW_AT_type attribute for a 0 sized type called void.
What was found was that when the 'finish' command was used to leave
'function_foo', GDB would crash.
The problem is that in infcmd.c:print_return_value GDB tries to filter
out void return types, by looking for the TYPE_CODE_VOID, this fails
for the 'void' type as it has code TYPE_CODE_INT and GDB then tries to
print the 'void' type.
This eventually ends in a call to valprint.c:maybe_negate_by_bytes,
however, the len (length) of the value being negated is 0, which is
not detected or expected by this code, and invalid memory accesses
occur, some of which might cause GDB to crash.
The above DWARF was seen on version 14.0.5.212 of ICC.
I have also tested ICC versions 18.0.2.199 and 17.0.7.259, on both of
these versions, the DW_AT_type on the DW_TAG_subprogram has been
removed, bringing ICC inline with the DWARF standard, and with the
DWARF produced by GCC.
I only have limited access to these specific versions of ICC so I am
unable to get more specific details for when the generated DWARF
became non-standard or when it was changed to be more inline with the
DWARF standard.
Further testing revealed additional places where ICC produced 'void'
related DWARF that GDB struggles with. When I compiled code that
contained a function with this signature:
void funcx (void *arg);
on ICC 17/18, I got the following DWARF (notice the void return type
is now gone):
However, the function argument 'arg' does still reference a 'void'
type. This case doesn't seem as obviously non-standard as the
previous one, but I think that the DWARF standard (V5 5.2) does
suggest that the above is not the recommended approach. If we compare
to the DWARF generated by GCC 7.3.1:
Here we see that the DW_TAG_pointer_type doesn't reference any further
type. This also seems out of line with the DWARF standard (which I
think recommends using a DW_TAG_unspecified_type entry), however GDB
does handle the GCC generated DWARF better.
If we look at how GDB handles the DWARF from GCC, then we see this:
(gdb) print *arg
Attempt to dereference a generic pointer.
While on the current HEAD of master dereferencing arg causes undefined
behaviour which will likely crash GDB (for the same reason as was
described above for the 'finish' case). On earlier versions of GDB
the ICC DWARF would cause this:
(gdb) print *arg
$1 = 0
In this patch both the return type, and general variable/parameter
type handling is fixed by transforming the synthetic void entries in
the DWARF, the ones that look like this:
into GDB's builtin void type. My criteria for performing the fix are:
1. Binary produced by any version of ICC,
2. We're producing an integer type,
3. The size is 0, and
4. The name is "void".
I ignore the signed / unsigned nature of the integer.
Potentially we could drop the ICC detection too, this should be a
reasonably safe transformation to perform, however, I'm generally
pretty nervous when it comes to modifying how the DWARF is parsed so,
for now, I have restricted this to ICC only.
I also added an assertion to maybe_negate_by_bytes. This is nothing
to do with the actual fix, but should detect incorrect use of this
function in the future, without relying on undefined behaviour to
crash GDB.
I added a new test that makes use the of the testsuite's DWARF
generator. As it is tricky to create target independent tests that
pass function parameters using the DWARF generator (as specifying the
argument location is target specific) I have instead made use of a
global variable void*. This still shows the issue.
We already have a predicate in the DWARF parser to detect versions of
ICC prior to 14, however, this issue was spotted on a later version.
As a result I've added a new predicate that is true for any version of
ICC.

* common/netstuff.c (parse_connection_spec) [prefixes]: Only compile "unix:"
if HAVE_AF_LOCAL is true.
* configure: regenerate.
* config.in: regenerate.
OBVIOUS Use report_unrecognized_option_error in 'demangle' and 'info macro' commands.
Rather than have some local logic to throw an error for an unrecognized option,
use the new cli-utils.h function throwing an error.
At the same time, fix some wrong indentation in info_macro_command
and fix a small bug in 'demangle' error handling:
Without the patch:
(gdb) demangle -L c++ abcd
Unrecognized option 'c++' to demangle command. Try "help demangle".
(gdb)
With the patch:
(gdb) demangle -L c++ abcd
Unrecognized option '-L' to demangle command. Try "help demangle".

* macrocmd.c (info_macro_command): Use report_unrecognized_option_error
to report a bad option and fix indentation.
* demangle.c (demangle_command): Use report_unrecognized_option_error
to report a bad option and correctly report the bad option.

Cache a copy of the user's shell on macOS
Recent versions of macOS have a feature called System Integrity
Protection. Among other things, This feature prevents ptrace from
tracing certain programs --- for example, the programs in /bin, which
includes typical shells.
This means that startup-with-shell does not work properly. This is PR
cli/23364. Currently there is a workaround in gdb to disable
startup-with-shell when this feature might be in use.
This patch changes gdb to be a bit more precise about when
startup-with-shell will not work, by checking whether the shell
executable is restricted.
If the shell is restricted, then this patch will also cause gdb to
cache a copy of the shell in the gdb cache directory, and then reset
the SHELL environment variable to point to this copy. This lets
startup-with-shell work again.
Tested on High Sierra by trying to start a program using redirection,
and by running startup-with-shell.exp.

Do not reopen temporary files
The current callers of mkostemp close the file descriptor and then
re-open it with fopen. It seemed better to me to continue to use the
already-opened file descriptor, so this patch rearranges the code a
little in order to do so. It takes care to ensure that the files are
only unlinked after the file descriptor in question is closed, as
before.
