A relatively recent patch support for explicit locations, and part of that patch cleaned up the way we parse breakpoint locations. Unfortunatly, a small regression crept in for "*<EXPR>" breakpoint locations. In particular, on PIE programs, one can see the issue by doing the following, with any program: (gdb) b *main Breakpoint 1 at 0x51a: file hello.c, line 3. (gdb) run Starting program: /[...]/hello Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Warning: Cannot insert breakpoint 1. Cannot access memory at address 0x51a Warning: Cannot insert breakpoint 1. Cannot access memory at address 0x51a Just for the record, this regression was introduced by: commit a06efdd6effd149a1d392df8d62824e44872003a Date: Tue Aug 11 17:09:35 2015 -0700 Subject: Explicit locations: introduce address locations What happens is that the patch makes the implicit assumption that the address computed the first time is static, as if it was designed to only support litteral expressions (Eg. "*0x1234"). This allows the shortcut of not re-computing the breakpoint location's address when re-setting breakpoints. However, this does not work in general, as demonstrated in the example above. This patch plugs that hole simply by saving the original expression used to compute the address as part of the address location, so as to then re-evaluate that expression during breakpoint re-set. gdb/ChangeLog: * location.h (new_address_location): Add new parameters "addr_string" and "addr_string_len". (get_address_string_location): Add declaration. * location.c (new_address_location): Add new parameters "addr_string" and "addr_string_len". If not NULL, store a copy of the addr_string in the new location as well. (get_address_string_location): New function. (string_to_event_location): Update call to new_address_location. * linespec.c (event_location_to_sals) <ADDRESS_LOCATION>: Save the event location in the parser's state before passing it to convert_address_location_to_sals. * breakpoint.c (create_thread_event_breakpoint): Update call to new_address_location. (init_breakpoint_sal): Get the event location's string, if any, and use it to update call to new_address_location. * python/py-finishbreakpoint.c (bpfinishpy_init): Update call to new_address_location. * spu-tdep.c (spu_catch_start): Likewise. * config/djgpp/fnchange.lst: Add entries for gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break-fun-addr1.c and gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break-fun-addr2.c. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/break-fun-addr.exp: New file. * gdb.base/break-fun-addr1.c: New file. * gdb.base/break-fun-addr2.c: New file.

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.
