Fork

Decouple user selection from internal selection

I am sending this as an RFC because it's far from complete and
definitive, but I'd like to gather some comments and opinions before
going further in this direction.

The goal of this patch is to decouple the notion of the user-selected
inferior/thread/frame from GDB's internally selected
inferior/thread/frame.

Currently, for example, the inferior_ptid variable has two jobs:

- it's the user-selected thread: it's changed by the "thread" command.
Other commands (continue, backtrace, etc) apply to this thread.
- it's the internally-selected thread: it defines the thread GDB is
currently "working" on. For example, implementations of
to_xfer_partial will refer to it to know from which thread to
read/write memory.

Because of this dual usage, if we want to do some operations on a thread
other than the currently selected one, we have to save the current
inferior/thread/frame and restore them when we're done. Failing to do
so would result in an unexpected selection switch for the user.

To improve this, Pedro suggested in [1] to decouple the two concepts. This
is essentially what this patch is trying to do.

A new "user_selection" object is introduced, which contains the selected
inferior/thread/frame from the point of view of the user. Before every
command, we "apply" this selection to the core of GDB to make sure the
internal selection matches the user selection.

There is a single user selection for the whole GDB (named "global
user-selection"), but as was mentioned in the linked thread, it opens
the door to having different selections for different UIs. This means
that each UI would have its own user-selection object, which would be
applied to the core prior to executing commands from this UI.

The global user-selection object only gets modified when we really
intend to change it. It can be because of the thread / -thread-select /
up / down / frame / inferior commands, a breakpoint hit in all-stop, an
inferior exit, etc.

The problem that initially prompted this effort is that the "--thread"
flag of MI commands changes the user-selected thread under the user's
feet. My initial attempt to fix it was to restore the selection after
the MI command execution. However, some cases are hard to get right.
For example:

(thread 1 is currently selected)
-interpreter-exec --thread 2 console "thread 3"

Restoring the selected thread to thread 1 after the MI command execution
wrongfully cancels the switch to thread 3. So it's hard to determine
when we should or shouldn't restore. With the current patch, it works
naturally: the --thread flag doesn't touch the user-selected thread,
only the internal one. The "thread 3" command updates the user
selection.

Another difficulty is to send the right notifications to MI when the
user selection changes. That means to not miss any, but not send too
many either. Getting it somewhat right lead to ugly hacks (see the
command_notifies_uscc_observer function) and even then it's not perfect
(see the kfails in user-selected-context-sync.exp test). With the
proposed method, it's easy to know when the user-selection changes and
send notifications.

With this patch, there are probably a few usage of
make_cleanup_restore_current_thread that are not needed anymore, if they
are only used to restore the user selection. I kept removing them for a
later time though.

In the current state, there are a few minor regressions in the testsuite
(especially some follow-fork stuff I'm not sure how to handle), but the
vast majority of the previously passing tests still pass.

Comments are welcome!

Thanks,

Simon

S/390: Add support for new cpu architecture - arch12.

This adds support of new instructions to the S/390 specific parts.

The important feature of the new instruction set is the support of
single and extended precision floating point vector operations.

Note: arch12 is NOT the official name of the new CPU. It just
continues the series of archXX options supported as alternate names.
The archXX terminology refers to the edition number of the Principle
of Operations manual. The official CPU name will be added later while
keeping support of the arch12 for backwards compatibility.

No testsuite regressions.

Committed to mainline.

Use gdb::function_view in iterate_over_symtabs & co

I wanted to pass a lambda to iterate_over_symtabs (see following
patch), so I converted it to function_view, and then the rest is
cascaded from that.

This gets rid of a bunch of single-use callback functions and
corresponding manually managed callback capture types
(add_partial_datum, search_symbols_data, etc.) in favor of letting the
compiler generate them for us by using lambdas with a capture. In a
couple cases, it was more natural to convert the existing function
callbacks to function objects (i.e., operator(), e.g.,
decode_compound_collector).

Introduce gdb::function_view

This commit adds a new function_view type. This type holds a
non-owning reference to a callable. It is meant to be used as
callback type of functions, instead of using the C-style pair of
function pointer and 'void *data' arguments. function_view allows
passing references to stateful function objects / lambdas with
captures as callbacks efficiently, while function pointer + 'void *'
does not.

See the intro in the new function-view.h header for more.

PR ld/20828: Move symbol version processing ahead of GC symbol sweep

Complement commit b531344c34b0 ("PR ld/20828: Reorder the symbol sweep
stage of section GC") and commit 81ff47b3a546 ("PR ld/20828: Fix linker
script symbols wrongly forced local with section GC") and move symbol
version processing ahead of the symbol sweep stage of section GC, all in
`bfd_elf_size_dynamic_sections', so that version symbols created stay in
the global scope and are not output as local symbols to the dynamic
symbol table in the presence of corresponding symbol definitions pulled
from a DSO involved in a link.

Consolidate the whole of symbol version processing into a single block
from all parts scattered across the function and rearranging the local
variables used as necessary, however leaving the setting of dynamic
entries associated with the DT_VERDEF, DT_VERDEFNUM, DT_VERNEED and
DT_VERNEEDNUM tags and the SEC_EXCLUDE flag for unused `.gnu.version'
section in the original places.

With the rearrangement of code blocks `Elf_Internal_Verneed *t' would
shadow the previous definition of `struct bfd_elf_version_tree *t', so
rename the former variable to `vn'.

GAS: Consistently fix labels at the `.end' pseudo-op

Fix a functional regression with the `.end' pseudo-op, introduced with
commit ecb4347adecd ("Last take: approval for MIPS_STABS_ELF killing"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2002-06/msg00443.html>, and commit
dcd410fe1544 ("GNU as 2.14 on IRIX 6: crashes with shared libs"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2003-07/msg00415.html>, which caused
symbol values for labels placed between the end of a function's contents
and its terminating `.end' followed by one of the alignment pseudo-ops
to be different depending on whether either `-mdebug', or `-mno-pdr', or
neither of the command-line options is in effect, be it implied or
specified.

Given debug-label-end.s as follows and the `mips-linux' target we have:

$ cat debug-label-end.s
.text

.globl foo
.globl bar
.align 4, 0
.ent foo
foo:
nop
.aent bar
bar:
.insn
.end foo
.align 4, 0
.space 16

.globl baz
.ent baz
baz:
nop
.end baz
.align 4, 0
.space 16
$ as -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
9: 00000004 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar
$ as -mdebug -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
9: 00000010 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar
$ as -mno-pdr -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
8: 00000010 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar
$

The reason is the call to `md_flush_pending_output', which in the case
of `mips*-*-*' targets expands to `mips_emit_delays', which in turn
calls `mips_no_prev_insn', which calls `mips_clear_insn_labels', which
clears the list of outstanding labels. That list is in turn consulted
in `mips_align', called in the interpretation of alignment directives,
and the labels adjusted to the current location.

A call to `md_flush_pending_output' is only made from `s_mips_end' and
then only if `-mpdr' is in effect, which is the default for `*-*-linux*'
and some other `mips*-*-*' targets. A call to `md_flush_pending_output'
is never made from `ecoff_directive_end', which is used in place of
`s_mips_end' when `-mdebug' is in effect. Consequently if `-mno-pdr' or
`-mdebug' is in effect the list of outstanding labels makes it through
to any alignment directive that follows and the labels are differently
interpreted depending on the command-lines options used. And we want
code produced to be always the same.

Call `md_flush_pending_output' unconditionally then in `s_mips_end' and
add such a call from `ecoff_directive_end' as well, as long as the macro
is defined. While `ecoff_directive_end' is shared among targets, the
only one other than `mips*-*-*' actually using it is `alpha*-*-*' and it
does not define `md_flush_pending_output'. So the semantics isn't going
to change for it and neither it has to have its `s_alpha_end' updated
or have code in `ecoff_directive_end' conditionalized.
