This patch turns a grab bag of value functions to methods of value.
These are done together because their implementations are
interrelated.
Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
This turns many functions that are related to optimized-out or
availability-checking to be methods of value. The static function
value_entirely_covered_by_range_vector is also converted to be a
private method.
Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
This turns the remaining value_contents functions -- value_contents,
value_contents_all, value_contents_for_printing, and
value_contents_for_printing_const -- into methods of value. It also
converts the static functions require_not_optimized_out and
require_available to be private methods.
Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
This turns value_contents_raw, value_contents_writeable, and
value_contents_all_raw into methods on value. The remaining functions
will be changed later in the series; they were a bit trickier and so I
didn't include them in this patch.

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
Add the `length` and `set_length` methods on `struct type`, in order to remove
the `TYPE_LENGTH` macro. In this patch, the macro is changed to use the
getter, so all the call sites of the macro that are used as a setter are
changed to use the setter method directly. The next patch will remove the
macro completely.

When running the test-case included with this patch, we run into:
...
(gdb) print ptm^M
$1 = gdb/gdbtypes.h:695: internal-error: loc_bitpos: \
Assertion `m_loc_kind == FIELD_LOC_KIND_BITPOS' failed.^M
...
while printing a c++ pointer-to-member.
Fix this by skipping static fields in cp_find_class_member, such that we have:
...
(gdb) print ptm^M
$1 = &A::i^M

Tested on x86_64-linux.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29294
fprintf_symbol_filtered is misnamed, because whether filtering happens
is now up to the stream. This renames it to fprintf_symbol, which
isn't a great name (the first "f" doesn't mean much and the second one
is truly meaningless here), but "print_symbol" was already taken.
Now that filtered and unfiltered output can be treated identically, we
can unify the printf family of functions. This is done under the name
"gdb_printf". Most of this patch was written by script.
Now that filtered and unfiltered output can be treated identically, we
can unify the puts family of functions. This is done under the name
"gdb_puts". Most of this patch was written by script.
I think it only really makes sense to call wrap_here with an argument
consisting solely of spaces. Given this, it seemed better to me that
the argument be an int, rather than a string. This patch is the
result. Much of it was written by a script.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

Add accessors for the various location values in struct field. This
lets us assert that when we get a location value of a certain kind (say,
bitpos), the field's location indeed contains a value of that kind.
Remove the SET_FIELD_* macros, instead use the new setters directly.
Update the FIELD_* macros used to access field locations to go through
the getters. They will be removed in a subsequent patch.
There are places where the FIELD_* macros are used on call_site_target
structures, because it contains members of the same name (loc_kind and
loc). For now, I have replicated the getters/setters in
call_site_target. But we could perhaps eventually factor them in a
"location" structure that can be used at both places.
Note that the field structure, being zero-initialized, defaults to a
bitpos location with value 0. While writing this patch, I tried to make
it default to an "unset" location, to catch places where we would miss
setting a field's location. However, I found that some places relied on
the default being "bitpos 0", so I left it as-is. This change could
always be done as follow-up work, making these places explicitly set the
"bitpos 0" location.
I found two issues to fix:
- I got some failures in the gdb.base/infcall-nested-structs-c++.exp
test. They were caused by two functions in amd64-tdep.c using
TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS before checking if the location is of the bitpos
kind, which they do indirectly through `field_is_static`. Simply
move getting the bitpos below the field_is_static call.
- I got a failure in gdb.xml/tdesc-regs.exp. It turns out that in
make_gdb_type_enum, we set enum field values using SET_FIELD_BITPOS,
and later access them through FIELD_ENUMVAL. Fix that by using
set_loc_enumval to set the value.

Remove the `TYPE_FIELD_NAME` and `FIELD_NAME` macros, changing all the
call sites to use field::name directly.
Change-Id: I6900ae4e1ffab1396e24fb3298e94bf123826ca6
When printing the fields of a register that is of a custom struct type,
the "unpack_bits_as_long ()" function is used:
do_val_print (...)
cp_print_value_fields (...)
value_field_bitfield (...)
unpack_value_bitfield (...)
unpack_bits_as_long (...)
This function may sign-extend the extracted field while returning it:
val >>= lsbcount;
if (...)
{
valmask = (((ULONGEST) 1) << bitsize) - 1;
val &= valmask;
if (!field_type->is_unsigned ())
if (val & (valmask ^ (valmask >> 1)))
val |= ~valmask;
}
return val;
lsbcount: Number of lower bits to get rid of.
bitsize: The bit length of the field to be extracted.
val: The register value.
field_type: The type of field that is being handled.
While the logic here is correct, there is a problem when it is
handling "field_type"s of "boolean". Those types are NOT marked
as "unsigned" and therefore they end up being sign extended.
Although this is not a problem for "false" (0), it definitely
causes trouble for "true".
This patch constructs the builtin boolean type as such that it is
marked as an "unsigned" entity.
The issue tackled here was first encountered for arc-elf32 target
running on an x86_64 machine. The unit-test introduced in this change
has passed for all the targets (--enable-targets=all) running on the
same x86_64 host.
Fixes: https://sourceware.org/PR28104
The 'print max-depth' feature incorrectly causes GDB to skip printing
the string representation of pretty printed variables if the variable
is stored at a nested depth corresponding to the set max-depth value.
This change ensures that it is always printed before checking whether
the maximum print depth has been reached.
Regression tested with GCC 7.3.0 on x86_64, ppc64le, aarch64.

Replace all uses of it by type::field.
Note that since type::field returns a reference to the field, some spots
are used to assign the whole field structure. See ctfread.c, function
attach_fields_to_type, for example. This is the same as was happening
with the macro, so I don't think it's a problem, but if anybody sees a
really nicer way to do this, now could be a good time to implement it.

This changes the extension language pretty-printers to use the value
API.
Note that new functions were needed, for both Guile and Python.
Currently both languages always wrap values by removing the values
from the value chain. This makes sense to avoid strange behavior with
watchpoints, and to avoid excessive memory use. However, when
printing, it's important to leave the passed-in value untouched, in
case pretty-printing does nothing -- that way the caller can still
access it.

This changes gdb to use the "variable" style when printing field

I chose "variable" because that seemed most straightforward. However,
another option would be to introduce a new "field" style. Similarly,
this patch uses the variable style for enumerator constants -- but
again, a new style could be used if that's preferred.

- Rationale:
It is possible for compilers to indicate the desired byte order
interpretation of scalar variables using the DWARF attribute:
DW_AT_endianity
A type flagged with this variable would typically use one of:
DW_END_big
DW_END_little
which instructs the debugger what the desired byte order interpretation
of the variable should be.
The GCC compiler (as of V6) has a mechanism for setting the desired byte
ordering of the fields within a structure or union. For, example, on a
little endian target, a structure declared as:
struct big {
int v;
short a[4];
} __attribute__( ( scalar_storage_order( "big-endian" ) ) );
could be used to ensure all the structure members have a big-endian
interpretation (the compiler would automatically insert byte swap
instructions before and after respective store and load instructions).
- To reproduce
GCC V8 is required to correctly emit DW_AT_endianity DWARF attributes
in all situations when the scalar_storage_order attribute is used.
A fix for (dwarf endianity instrumentation) for GCC V6-V7 can be found
in the URL field of the following PR:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82509
- Test-case:
A new test case (testsuite/gdb.base/endianity.*) is included with this
patch.
Manual testing for mixed endianity code has also been done with GCC V8.
See:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82509#c4
- Observed vs. expected:
Without this change, using scalar_storage_order that doesn't match the
target, such as
struct otherendian
{
int v;
} __attribute__( ( scalar_storage_order( "big-endian" ) ) );
would behave like the following on a little endian target:
Breakpoint 1 at 0x401135: file endianity.c, line 41.

Starting program: /home/pjoot/freeware/t/a.out

(gdb) p o
$1 = {v = 50331648}
(gdb) p /x
$2 = {v = 0x3000000}
whereas with this gdb enhancement we can access the variable with the user
specified endianity:

41 struct otherendian o = {3};
(gdb) p o
$1 = {v = 0}
