Splits ELF related symbols into a separate jit-elf-util.h header and
enhances it with a few more.
Intention is to make adding new JIT tests possible without repeating
most of the common boilerplate.
As a test enhancement, jit-elf-main.c now calls the renamed function
after registering the jit object and ensures it returns an expected
result.

* gdb.base/jit-elf-util.h: New header file.
* gdb.base/jit-elf-main.c: Use jit-elf-util.h, add a call to
the renamed JIT function to verify its result.
Replaces previous approach with patching resulting ELF binary after
loading - now that each test iteration works on a separately compiled
binary it is not necessary anymore.
Tests are still being ran without debug info to preserve original test
functionality but this change opens up the possibility to enable debug
info if needed too.

* gdb.base/jit-elf-main.c: Stop patching jit function name.
* gdb.base/jit-elf-solib.c: Use FUNCTION_NAME macro value as a
function name.
Removes the need to manually relocate loaded ELF binary by using a fixed
constant as both mmap base address and as a requested first segment
address supplied to the linker.
In future will enable JIT tests with a valid DWARF debug info. Current
tests still need to compile without a debug info though, because they do
a function name modification.

New utility library to be used by jit-elf tests responsible for
compiling binary artifacts. In the next commit the compilation process
will become more complicated because of extra mandatory flag - keeping
it in one place will make tests less fragile.

Building on the previous commit, this patch detects when two tests
have the same test name and causes Dejagnu to print a new result type
'# of duplicate test names' in the result summary. A line starting
with 'DUPLICATE: ' is also added to the gdb.sum and gdb.log files.
The DUPLICATE markers will be printed the second time a duplicate test
name is seen, and every time after that. So you might see:
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: foo
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: bar
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: foo
DUPLICATE: gdb.base/sometest.exp: foo
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: baz
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: foo
DUPLICATE: gdb.base/sometest.exp: foo
However, the results will report a duplicate count of 1, indicating
that just one test name (foo) was duplicated.
Currently if the tests are run in parallel mode the new result type is
not merged into the combined summary file so users will need to run in
non-parallel mode to check this result. Similarly, the 'DUPLICATE: '
markers will not be merged into the final gdb.sum file. A later
commit will fix this.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/check-test-names.exp (all_test_names): New module variable.
(counts): Add 'duplicates' field.
(_check_duplicates): New procedure.
(check): Also check for duplicates.
(do_log_summary): Print duplicates count.
(do_reset_vars): Reset counter for duplicate test names, and
discard all know test names.
A new library is introduced that hooks into the core of Dejagnu and
detects when a test's name includes either the source or build paths.
If any offending test names are detected then Dejagnu will print a
new result type, '# of paths in test names'. Users should treat this
result type just like other bad results types, and aim not to increase
this number.
As well as displaying the total number of offending tests as part of
the final results, a new marker is included in both the gdb.log and
gdb.sum files, this marker starts with 'PATH: ', so an offending test
would be expected to appear like this:
PASS: gdb.base/sometest.exp: Loaded /path/to/build/testsuite/foo.exe
PATH: gdb.base/sometest.exp: Loaded /path/to/build/testsuite/foo.exe
This should make it easier to track down offending tests.
Currently for a local run on my machine, I don't see any offending
test names, but it is possible that different targets, or different
configurations, might currently be breaking the no paths rule.
In order to get this working I have needed to wrap two core Dejagnu
functions, log_summary, and reset_vars. Relying on core functions
that are not part of any API is always going to be risky, given the
relatively slow rate of Dejagnu change this is probably OK for now,
and we can possibly upstream some changes to Dejagnu that would allow
this functionality to be supported in a more official way later on.
Currently if the tests are run in parallel mode the new result type is
not merged into the combined summary file so users will need to run in
non-parallel mode to check this result. Similarly, the 'PATH: '
markers will not be merged into the combined summary file. A later
commit will fix this.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/gdb.exp: Include check-test-names.exp library.
* lib/check-test-names.exp: New file.
The val_print removal patches introduced an Ada regression on PPC64
(probably any big-endian system).
The issue comes because value_field does not understand that Ada
wrapper fields can be bitfields that wrap a non-scalar type. In this
case the value is already left-justified, so the justification done
there does the wrong thing.
Perhaps it would be good, eventually, to change value_field to
understand this case. In the meantime this implements an Ada-specific
solution.

Test-case gdb.ada/packed_tagged.exp contains a kfail:
...
setup_kfail "gnat compiler bug" *-*-*
...
Kfails are used to indicate problems in gdb, xfails are used to indicate
problems in the environment.
A bug in the gnat compiler is a problem in the environment rather than gdb.
Fix this by changing the kfail into an xfail.

-fdebug-types-section \
-c -g -g \
-o outputs/gdb.cp/cpexprs/cpexprs0.o \

...
This is due to using a global variable flags, which is set in
cpexprs-debug-types.exp and tested for existence in cpexprs.exp.
Fix this by using a more robust inclusion mechanism, that is:
- move the bulk of the test-case cpexprs.exp to cpexprs.exp.in,
- include it from cpexprs.exp and cpexprs-debug-types.exp, and
- set flags in both .exp files

This is due to the fact that the .debug_names section does not contain
DW_TAG_module entries.

return sum;
}
$ cat foo.c

When loading this exec into gdb, we run into this assert:
...
$ gdb a.out
Reading symbols from a.out...
warning: Section .debug_aranges in a.out entry at offset 0 \
debug_info_offset 0 does not exists, ignoring .debug_aranges.
src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:6949: \
internal-error: cutu_reader::cutu_reader(dwarf2_per_cu_data*, \
abbrev_table*, int, bool): \
Assertion `this_cu->length == cu->header.get_length ()' failed.
...
The problem is that the determined length of the CU:
...
(gdb) p /x this_cu->length
$4 = 0x26a
...
does not match the actual length:
...
(gdb) p /x cu->header.get_length ()
$5 = 0x59
...
The length of the CU is determined in create_cus_from_debug_names_list, and
set based on this list in the .debug_names section:
...
Compilation Unit offsets [
CU[0]: 0x000000c7
]
...
and it is assumed that this is a complete list, so the size of the CU is
calculated using the end of the .debug_section at 0x331, making it 0x331 -
0xc7 == 0x26a.
However, the CU list is not complete:
...
$ llvm-dwarfdump -debug-info a.out \
| grep "Compile Unit" \
| sed 's/Compile Unit.*//'
0x00000000:
0x0000002e:

0x000000c7:
0x00000120:
0x00000157:
0x0000030f:
...
In particular, because the CU for foo.c is there at 0x120 (the rest of the CUs
is due to openSUSE having debug info for various linked in objects).
Fix the assert by not assuming to know the length of CUs in
create_cus_from_debug_names_list (if the .debug_names is not produced by GDB),
and setting it to 0, and setting it later to the actual length.
Note that this does not fix the .debug_aranges warning, that's PR25969.
Build and tested on x86_64-linux, with native and debug-names.

...
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-catch-cpp-exceptions.exp: all with invalid regexp: run until \
breakpoint in main (unknown output after running)
...
This is a regression since commit 596dc4adff "Speed up psymbol reading by
removing a copy".
Before that commit, we have:
...
$ gdb \

-ex "break 67" \
-ex "catch throw -r blahblah" \

Catchpoint 2 (throw)
Breakpoint 1, main () at mi-catch-cpp-exceptions.cc:67
67 return 1; /* Stop here. */
...
In other words:
- we set a breakpoint somewhere in main,
- we set a catchpoint with a regexp that is intended to not match any
exception, and
- run to the breakpoint, without the catchpoint triggering.
After the commit, we have:
...

Before the commit, we have:
- type_name == "my_exception"
- canon = ""
and the !type_name.empty () test succeeds, and gdb executes the
self->pattern->exec call.
After the commit, we have:
- type_name == "my_exception"
- canon == NULL
- name == NULL
and the name != nullptr test fails, and gdb doesn't execute the
self->pattern->exec call.
Fix this by inverting the condition for the calculation of name:
...
- name = (canon == nullptr
+ name = (canon != nullptr
...

A customer reported a crash in the DWARF reader.
Investigation showed that the crash occurred in an unusual scenario: a
function was lexically scoped within some other function -- but the
inner function inlined the outer function and referred to its DIE via
DW_AT_abstract_origin. With the executable in question,
inherit_abstract_dies could eventually call read_lexical_block_scope,
which in turn could recurse into process_die, to process a DIE that
was already being read, triggering an assert.
This came up once before; see:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-02/msg00652.html
However, in this case, I don't have an easy way to reproduce. So,
there is no test case.
I did experiment with the failing executable. This patch fixes the
bug and doesn't seem to cause other issues. For example, I can still
set breakpoints on the relevant functions.

-(gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/fork-child-threads.exp: next over fork

...
This is due to the fact that gcc-8 generates more precise line info, making
the instruction after the call to fork a "recommended breakpoint location".
However, it is a bug because next is supposed to move to the next source
line.
The problem is that in process_event_stop_test we hit this code:
...
if ((ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_pc == stop_pc_sal.pc)
&& (ecs->event_thread->current_line != stop_pc_sal.line
|| ecs->event_thread->current_symtab != stop_pc_sal.symtab))
{
if (stop_pc_sal.is_stmt)
{
/* We are at the start of a different line. So stop. Note that
we don't stop if we step into the middle of a different line.
That is said to make things like for (;;) statements work
better. */
if (debug_infrun)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog,
"infrun: stepped to a different line\n");
end_stepping_range (ecs);
return;
}
...
because current_line and current_symtab have initial values:
...
(gdb) p ecs->event_thread->current_line
$8 = 0
(gdb) p ecs->event_thread->current_symtab
$9 = (symtab *) 0x0
...
Fix this in follow_fork by copying current_line and current_symtab from
parent thread to child thread.

Add test-case with .debug_names section using DW_FORM_ref4.
There's currently no support for .debug_names in the dwarf assembler, so we
use plain _emit rather than something more structured.
Consequently, we cannot use regular declare_labels-generated labels to refer
from .debug_names to .debug_info. Instead, we use labels with a
predefined name, which we generate using _compute_label, and then define using
define_label.

v2:
- test: build full executable instead of object
- test: add and use supports_fcf_protection
- test: use gdb_test_multiple's -wrap option
- test: don't execute gdb_assert if failed to get breakpoint address
Some GCCs now enable -fcf-protection by default. This is the case, for
example, with GCC 9.3.0 on Ubuntu 20.04. Enabling it causes the
`endbr64` instruction to be inserted at the beginning of all functions
and that breaks GDB's prologue analysis.
I noticed this because it gives many failures in gdb.base/break.exp.
But let's take this dummy program and put a breakpoint on main:
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
Without -fcf-protection, the breakpoint is correctly put after the prologue:
$ gcc test.c -g3 -O0 -fcf-protection=none
$ ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory a.out

Stepping in amd64_skip_prologue, we can see that the prologue analysis,

instruction, and skip it if it's there.

extern int gnu_ifunc (int);
int main (void)
{ return gnu_ifunc (10); }
...
However, it can be inconvenient to have seperate files for the incompatible
decls of gnu_ifunc, so we can use this in a single file like this:
...
$ cat 4.c
typedef int (*final_t) (int arg);
int final (int arg)
{ return arg + 1; }
asm (".type gnu_ifunc, %gnu_indirect_function");
final_t gnu_ifunc (void)
{ return final; }
extern int gnu_ifunc_alias (int arg) __attribute__ ((alias ("gnu_ifunc")));
int main (void)
{ return gnu_ifunc_alias (10); }
...
This alias trick works ok at -O0, but not at -O2:
...
$ gcc 4.c
$ ./a.out; echo $?
11
$ gcc 4.c
$ ./a.out; echo $?
176
...
and produces a warning with gcc-8 and later:
...
$ gcc-8 4.c
4.c:7:12: warning: 'gnu_ifunc_alias' alias between functions of incompatible \
types 'int(int)' and 'int (*(void))(int)' [-Wattribute-alias]
extern int gnu_ifunc_alias (int arg) __attribute__ ((alias ("gnu_ifunc")));
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4.c:5:9: note: aliased declaration here
final_t gnu_ifunc (void)
^~~~~~~~~
...
The warning is correct, but the mismatch is intentional.
The last variant (%gnu_indirect_function + alias) is used in
gdb.compile/compile-ifunc.c, so we run into the warning with recent gcc.
Fix the warning by compiling with -Wno-attribute-alias.
Tested the test-case on x86_64-linux with gcc-10, and observed I no longer see
the warning:
