When using the GDB/MI commands to insert a catchpoint on a specific
Ada exception, any re-evaluation of that catchpoint (for instance
a re-evaluation performed after a shared library got mapped by the
inferior) fails. For instance, with any Ada program:
(gdb)
-catch-exception -e program_error
^done,bkptno="1",bkpt={[...]}
(gdb)
-exec-run
=thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="28315"
=thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1"
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)
=library-loaded,[...]
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
[...]
The same is true if using an Ada exception catchpoint.
The problem comes from the fact that that we deallocate the strings
given as arguments to create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while the latter
just makes shallow copies of those strings, thus creating dandling
pointers.
This patch fixes the issue by passing freshly allocated strings to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while at the same time updating
create_ada_exception_catchpoint's documentation to make it clear
that deallocating the strings is no longer the responsibility of
the caller.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Enhance
the documentation of fields "except_string" and "condition".
* mi/mi-cmd-catch.c (mi_cmd_catch_assert): Reallocate
CONDITION on the heap before passing it to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint.
(mi_cmd_catch_exception): Likewise for EXCEPTION_NAME and
CONDITION.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/mi_ex_cond: New testcase.
Tested on x86_64-linux. The "-break-list" test FAILs without
this patch.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
