In the lm32 simulator, I was seeing some warnings about missing
function declarations.
The lm32 simulator has a weird header structure, in order to pull in
the full cpu.h header we need to define WANT_CPU_LM32BF. This is done
in some files, but not in others. Critically, it's not done in some
files that then use functions declared in cpu.h
In this commit I added the missing #define so that the full cpu.h can
be included.
After doing this there are still a few functions that are used
undeclared, these functions appear to be missing any declarations at
all, so I've added some to cpu.h.
With this done all the warnings when compiling lm32 are resolved for
both gcc and clang, so I've removed the SIM_WERROR_CFLAGS line from
Makefile.in, this allows lm32 to build with -Werror.
There are two places in the h8300 simulator where we assign a variable
to itself. Clang gives a warning for this, which is converted into an
error by -Werror.
Silence the warning by removing the self assignments. As these
assignments were in a complex if/then/else tree, rather than try to
adjust all the conditions, I've just replaced the self assignments
with a comment and an empty statement.
In the ppc simulator, clang was warning about some code like this:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = 1 + (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P(out_vmask)) ? 1 : 2;
The warning was:
operator '?:' has lower precedence than '+'; '+' will be evaluated first
I suspect that this is not the original authors intention.
PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P is going to be 0 or 1, so if we evaluate the '+'
first, the condition will always be non-zero, so true. The whole
expression could then be simplified to just '1', which doesn't make
much sense.
I suspect the answer the author was expecting was either 2 or 3. Why
they didn't just write:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P(out_vmask)) ? 2 : 3;
I have no clue, however, to keep the structure of the code unchanged,
I've updated things to:
busy_ptr->nr_writebacks = 1 + (PPC_ONE_BIT_SET_P (out_vmask) ? 1 : 2);
which silences the warning from clang, and is, I am guessing, what the
original author intended.
In the ppc simulator's do_fstat function, which provides the fstat
call for the simulator, if the fstat is going to fail then we
currently write an uninitialized buffer into the simulated target.
In theory, I think this is fine, we also write the error status into
the simulated target, so, given that the fstat has failed, the target
shouldn't be relying on the buffer contents.
However, writing an uninitialized buffer means we might leak simulator
private data into the simulated target, which is probably a bad thing.
Plus it probably makes life easier if something consistent, like all
zeros, is written rather than random junk, which might look like a
successful call (except for the error code).
So, in this commit, I initialize the stat buffer to zero before
it is potentially used. If the stat call is not made then the buffer
will be left initialized as all zeros.
The ppc simulator, in sim_create_inferior, tries to print the function
local entry_point variable before the variable is initialized.
In this commit, I defer the debug print line until the variable has
been initialized.

If a custom arm-elf target is disabling the shared support, a lot of
failures are reported by the testsuite.
Moreover, some tests try to access libraries which have been explicitly
skipped earlier (eg mixed-lib.so).
ld/ChangeLog:
* testsuite/ld-arm/arm-elf.exp: Separate tests needing shared
lib support.
There's little point in having Intel syntax disassembler tests when the
purpose of a test is assembler functionality: Drop all
*avx512*_vpclmulqdq-wig1-intel.
For *avx512*_vpclmulqdq-wig1 share source with *avx512*_vpclmulqdq.
Finally put in place similar tests for -mvexwig=1.
There's little point in having Intel syntax disassembler tests when the
purpose of a test is assembler functionality: Drop all
*avx512*_vaes-wig1-intel.
For *avx512*_vaes-wig1 share source with *avx512*_vaes. This in
particular makes sure that the 32-bit VL test actually tests any EVEX
encodings in the first place.
Finally put in place similar tests for -mvexwig=1.
When no AVX512-specific functionality is in use, the disassembly of
AVX512VL insns is indistinguishable from their AVX counterparts (if such
exist). Emit the {evex} pseudo-prefix in such cases.
Where applicable drop stray uses of PREFIX_OPCODE from table entries.

to %P to get "aarch64/allinsn.exp".

These configure scripts check $target and change behavior. They
shouldn't be doing that, but until we can rework the sim to change
behavior based on the input ELF, restore AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM to
these so that $target is correctly populated.
This was lost in the d3562f83a7b8a1ae6e333cd5561419d3da18fcb4
("sim: unify toolchain probing logic") refactor as the logic was
hoisted up to the common code. But the fact the vars weren't
passed down to the sub-configure scripts was missed.

This test sends my CI in an infinite loop of failures. We expect to
have a handful of iterations (5 on my development machine, where the
test passes fine)but the log shows that it went up to 104340 iterations:
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp - instruction 104340: maint print frame-id
DUPLICATE: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp - instruction 104340: maint print frame-id
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp - instruction 104340: [string equal $fid $main_fid]
FAIL: gdb.base/unwind-on-each-insn.exp - instruction 104340: get hexadecimal valueof "$pc"
Add a max instruction check, exit the loop if we reach 100 iterations.
This should allow the test to fail fast if there's a problem, but 100
iterations should be more than enough for when things are working.

PR symtab/29694 points out a regression caused by the new DWARF
scanner when the cc-with-gdb-index target board is used.
What happens here is that an older version of gdb will make an index
describing the "A" type as:
[737] A: 1 [global, type]
whereas the new gdb says:
[1008] A: 0 [global, type]
Here the old one is correct because the A in CU 0 is just a
declaration without a size:
<1><45>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_structure_type)
<46> DW_AT_name : A
<48> DW_AT_declaration : 1
<48> DW_AT_sibling : <0x6d>
This patch fixes the problem by introducing the idea of a "type
declaration". I think gdb still needs to recurse into these types,
searching for methods, but by marking the type itself as a
declaration, gdb can skip this type during lookups and when writing
the index.
Regression tested on x86-64 using the cc-with-gdb-index board.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29694
A user noticed that gdb would crash when printing a packed array after
doing "set lang c". Packed arrays don't exist in C, but it's
occasionally useful to print things in C mode when working in a non-C
language -- this lets you see under the hood a little bit.
The bug here is that generic value printing does not handle packed
arrays at all. This patch fixes the bug by introducing a new function
to extract a value from a bit offset and width.
The new function includes a hack to avoid problems with some existing
test cases when using -fgnat-encodings=all. Cleaning up this code
looked difficult, and since "all" is effectively deprecated, I thought
it made sense to simply work around the problems.
A user found a bug where an array of packed arrays was printed
incorrectly. The bug here is that the packed array has a bit stride,
but the outer array does not -- and should not. However,
update_static_array_size does not distinguish between an array of
packed arrays and a multi-dimensional packed array, and for the
latter, only the innermost array will end up with a stride.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a flag to indicate whether a
given array type is a constituent of a multi-dimensional array.

Currently, when using GDB to do reverse debugging, if we try to use the
command "reverse next" to skip a recursive function, instead of skipping
all of the recursive calls and stopping in the previous line, we stop at
the second to last recursive call, and need to manually step backwards
until we leave the first call. This is well documented in PR gdb/16678.
This bug happens because when GDB notices that a reverse step has
entered into a function, GDB will add a step_resume_breakpoint at the
start of the function, then single step out of the prologue once that
breakpoint is hit. The problem was happening because GDB wouldn't give
that step_resume_breakpoint a frame-id, so the first time the breakpoint
was hit, the inferior would be stopped. This is fixed by giving the
current frame-id to the breakpoint.
This commit also changes gdb.reverse/step-reverse.c to contain a
recursive function and attempt to both, skip it altogether, and to skip
the second call from inside the first call, as this setup broke a
previous version of the patch.
When GDB is stopped at a ret instruction and no debug information is
available for unwinding, GDB defaults to the amd64 epilogue unwinder, to
be able to generate a decent backtrace. However, when calculating the
frame id, the epilogue unwinder generates information as if the return
instruction was the whole frame.
This was an issue especially when attempting to reverse debug, as GDB
would place a step_resume_breakpoint from the epilogue of a function if
we were to attempt to skip that function, and this breakpoint should
ideally have the current function's frame_id to avoid other problems
such as PR record/16678.
This commit changes the frame_id calculation for the amd64 epilogue,
so that it is always the same as the dwarf2 unwinder's frame_id.
It also adds a test to confirm that the frame_id will be the same,
regardless of using the epilogue unwinder or not, thanks to Andrew
Burgess.

In a later commit in this series I will propose removing all of the
explicit gdbpy_initialize_* calls from python.c and replace these
calls with a more generic mechanism.
One of the side effects of this generic mechanism is that the order in
which the various Python sub-systems within GDB are initialized is no
longer guaranteed.
On the whole I don't think this matters, most of the sub-systems are
independent of each other, though testing did reveal a few places
where we did have dependencies, though I don't think those
dependencies were explicitly documented in comment anywhere.
This commit is similar to the previous one, and fixes the second
dependency issue that I found.
In this case the finish_breakpoint_object_type uses the
breakpoint_object_type as its tp_base, this means that
breakpoint_object_type must have been initialized with a call to
PyType_Ready before finish_breakpoint_object_type can be initialized.
Previously we depended on the ordering of calls to
gdbpy_initialize_breakpoints and gdbpy_initialize_finishbreakpoints in
python.c.
After this commit a new function gdbpy_breakpoint_init_breakpoint_type
exists, this function ensures that breakpoint_object_type has been
initialized, and can be called from any gdbpy_initialize_* function.
I feel that this change makes the dependency explicit, which I think
is a good thing.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

This commit removes the first dependency issue, with this and the next
commit, all of the implicit inter-sub-system dependencies will be
replaced by explicit dependencies, which will allow me to, I think,
clean up how the sub-systems are initialized.
The dependency is around the py_insn_type. This type is setup in
gdbpy_initialize_instruction and used in gdbpy_initialize_record.
Rather than depend on the calls to these two functions being in a
particular order, in this commit I propose adding a new function
py_insn_get_insn_type. This function will take care of setting up the
py_insn_type type and calling PyType_Ready. This helper function can
be called from gdbpy_initialize_record and
gdbpy_initialize_instruction, and the py_insn_type will be initialized
just once.
To me this is better, the dependency is now really obvious, but also,
we no longer care in which order gdbpy_initialize_record and
gdbpy_initialize_instruction are called.
