Simon pointed out that my recent change to the DWO code caused a
failure in ASAN testing.
The bug here was I updated the code to use a different search type in
the hash table; but then did not change the search code to use
htab_find_slot_with_hash.
Note that this bug would not be possible with my type-safe hash table
series, hint, hint.

dwarf2_base_index_functions::find_per_cu is documented as using an
unrelocated address. This patch changes the interface to use the
unrelocated_addr type, just to be a bit more type-safe.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.
dwarf2_has_info and dwarf2_initialize_objfile are only separate
because the DWARF reader implemented lazy psymtab reading. However,
now that this is gone, we can simplify the public DWARF API again.
This patch rearranges the DWARF reader so that more work is done in
the background. This is PR symtab/29942.
The idea here is that there is only a small amount of work that must
be done on the main thread when scanning DWARF -- before the main
scan, the only part is mapping the section data.
Currently, the DWARF reader uses the quick_symbol_functions "lazy"
functionality to defer even starting to read. This patch instead
changes the reader to start reading immediately, but doing more in
worker tasks.
Before this patch, "file" on my machine:
(gdb) file /tmp/gdb
2023-10-23 12:29:56.885 - command started
Reading symbols from /tmp/gdb...
2023-10-23 12:29:58.047 - command finished
Command execution time: 5.867228 (cpu), 1.162444 (wall)
After the patch, more work is done in the background and so this takes
a bit less time:
(gdb) file /tmp/gdb
2023-10-23 13:25:51.391 - command started
Reading symbols from /tmp/gdb...
2023-10-23 13:25:51.712 - command finished
Command execution time: 1.894500 (cpu), 0.320306 (wall)
I think this could be further sped up by using the shared library load
map to avoid objfile loops like the one in expand_symtab_containing_pc
-- it seems like the correct objfile could be chosen more directly.

For testing, it's sometimes convenient to be able to request that

When DWARF reading is done in the background,
read_addrmap_from_aranges will be called from a worker thread.
Because warnings can't be emitted from these threads, this patch adds
a new deferred_warnings parameter to the function, letting the caller
control exactly how the warnings are emitted.
This patch changes the way complaint works in a background thread.
The new approach requires installing a complaint interceptor in each
worker, and then the resulting complaints are treated as one of the
results of the computation. This change is needed for a subsequent
patch, where installing a complaint interceptor around a parallel-for
is no longer a viable approach.
This changes gdb to ensure that gdb's BFD cache is guarded by a lock.
This avoids any races when multiple threads might open a BFD (and thus
use the BFD cache) at the same time.
Currently, this change is not needed because the the main thread waits
for some DWARF scanning to be completed before returning. The only
locking that's required is when opening DWO files, and there's a local
lock to this end in dwarf2/read.c.
However, in the coming patches, the DWARF reader will begin its work
earlier, in the background. This means there is the potential for the
DWARF reader and other code on the main thread to both attempt to open
BFDs at the same time.
This adds a couple of calls to bfd_cache_close at points where a BFD
isn't actively needed by gdb. Normally at these points, all the
needed section data is already mapped, so we can simply close the file
descriptor. This is harmless at worst, because if this is needed
after all, the BFD file descriptor cache will reopen it.
This changes the DWZ code to pre-read the section data and somewhat
simplify the DWZ API. This makes it easier to add the bfd_cache_close
call to the new dwarf2_read_dwz_file function -- after this is done,
there shouldn't be a reason to keep the BFD's file descriptor open.
The DWO code in the DWARF reader currently uses objfile::intern. This
accesses a shared data structure and so would be racy when used from
multiple threads. I don't believe this can happen right now, but
background reading could provoke this, and in any case it's better to
avoid this, just to be sure.
This patch changes this code to just use a std::string. A new type is
introduced to do hash table lookups, to avoid unnecessary copies.
This commit adds a mechanism for GDB to detect the linetable opcode
DW_LNS_set_epilogue_begin. This opcode is set by compilers to indicate
that a certain instruction marks the point where the frame is destroyed.
While the standard allows for multiple points marked with epilogue_begin
in the same function, for performance reasons, the function that
searches for the epilogue address will only find the last address that
sets this flag for a given block.
This commit also changes amd64_stack_frame_destroyed_p_1 to attempt to
use the epilogue begin directly, and only if an epilogue can't be found
will it attempt heuristics based on the current instruction.
Finally, this commit also changes the dwarf assembler to be able to emit
epilogue-begin instructions, to make it easier to test this patch

Fortran provides additional entry points for subroutines and functions.
These entry points may use only a subset (or a different set) of the
parameters of the original subroutine. The entry points may be described
via the DWARF tag DW_TAG_entry_point.
This commit adds support for parsing the DW_TAG_entry_point DWARF tag.
Currently, between ifx/ifort/gfortran, only ifort is actually emitting
this tag. Both, ifx and gfortran use the DW_TAG_subprogram tag as
workaround/alternative. Thus, this patch really only adds more ifort
support. Even so, some of the attached tests still fail for ifort, due
to some wrong line info generated for the entry points in ifort.
After this patch it is possible to set a breakpoint in gdb with the
ifort compiled example at the entry points 'foo' and 'foobar', which was not
possible before.
As gcc and ifx do not emit the tag I also added a test to gdb.dwarf2
which uses some underlying c compiled code and adds some Fortran style DWARF
to it emitting the DW_TAG_entry_point. Before this patch it was not
possible to actually define breakpoint at the entry point tags.
For gfortran there actually exists a bug on bugzilla, asking for the use
of DW_TAG_entry_point over DW_TAG_subprogram:

Given that GDB now requires a C++17, replace all uses of
gdb::string_view with std::string_view.
This change has mostly been done automatically:
- gdb::string_view -> std::string_view
- #include "gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h" -> #include <string_view>
One things which got brought up during review is that gdb::stging_view
does support being built from "nullptr" while std::sting_view does not.
Two places are manually adjusted to account for this difference:
gdb/tui/tui-io.c:tui_getc_1 and
gdbsupport/format.h:format_piece::format_piece.
The above automatic change transformed
"gdb::to_string (const gdb::string_view &)" into
"gdb::to_string (const std::string_view &)". The various direct users
of this function are now explicitly including
"gdbsupport/gdb_string_view.h". A later patch will remove the users of

dwarf2/read.c:new_symbol has some extra braces in a couple of 'case's.
These read weirdly to me, and since they aren't necessary, this patch
removes the braces and reindents the bodies. Tested by rebuilding.
While working on background reading of DWARF, I came across the
DWZ-reading code. This code can query the user (via the debuginfod
support) -- something that cannot be done off the main thread.
Looking into it, I realized that this code can be run much earlier,
avoiding this problem. Digging a bit deeper, I also found a
discrepancy here between how the DWARF reader works in "readnow" mode
as compared to the normal modes.
This patch cleans this up by trying to read the DWZ file earlier, and
also by having the DWARF reader convert any exception here into a
warning. This unifies the various cases, but also makes it so that
errors do not prevent gdb from continuing on to the extent possible.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.
When running test-case gdb.tui/tui-layout-asm-short-prog.exp on AlmaLinux 9.2
ppc64le, I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.tui/tui-layout-asm-short-prog.exp: check asm box contents
...
The problem is that we get:
...
7 [ No Assembly Available ]
...
because tui_get_begin_asm_address doesn't succeed.
In more detail, tui_get_begin_asm_address calls:
...
find_line_pc (sal.symtab, sal.line, &addr);
...
with:
...
(gdb) p *sal.symtab
$5 = {next = 0x130393c0, m_compunit = 0x130392f0, m_linetable = 0x0,
filename = "tui-layout-asm-short-prog.S",
filename_for_id = "$gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/tui-layout-asm-short-prog.S",
m_language = language_asm, fullname = 0x0}
(gdb) p sal.line
$6 = 1
...
The problem is the filename_for_id which is the source file prefixed with the
compilation dir rather than the source dir.
This is due to faulty debug info generated by gas, PR28629:
...
<1a> DW_AT_name : tui-layout-asm-short-prog.S
<1e> DW_AT_comp_dir : $gdb/build/gdb/testsuite
<22> DW_AT_producer : GNU AS 2.35.2
...
The DW_AT_name is relative, and it's relative to the DW_AT_comp_dir entry,
making the effective name $gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/tui-layout-asm-short-prog.S.
The bug is fixed starting version 2.38, where we get instead:
...
<1a> DW_AT_name :
$gdb/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.tui/tui-layout-asm-short-prog.S
<1e> DW_AT_comp_dir : $gdb/build/gdb/testsuite
<22> DW_AT_producer : GNU AS 2.38
...
Work around the faulty debug info by constructing the filename_for_id using
the second directory from the directory table in the .debug_line header:
...
The Directory Table (offset 0x22, lines 2, columns 1):
Entry Name
0 $gdb/build/gdb/testsuite
1 $gdb/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.tui
...
Note that the used gas contains a backport of commit 3417bfca676 ("GAS:
DWARF-5: Ensure that the 0'th entry in the directory table contains the
current working directory."), because directory 0 is correct. With the
unpatched 2.35.2 release the directory 0 entry is incorrect: it's a copy of
entry 1.
Add a dwarf assembly test-case that reflects the debug info as generated by
unpatched gas 2.35.2.

gdb) p ((char * (*) (const char *, const char *))*strstr) ("haha", "ah")
$n = 0x7ffff7daa251 "aha"

This patch adds a new section to the DWARF index containing the name
and the language of the main function symbol, gathered from
`cooked_index::get_main`, if available. Currently, for lack of a better name,
this section is called the "shortcut table". The way this name is both saved and
applied upon an index being loaded in mirrors how it is done in
`cooked_index_functions`, more specifically, the full name of the main function
symbol is saved and `set_objfile_main_name` is used to apply it after it is
loaded.
The main use case for this patch is in improving startup times when dealing with
large binaries. Currently, when an index is used, GDB has to expand symtabs
until it finds out what the language of the main function symbol is. For some
large executables, this may take a considerable amount of time to complete,
slowing down startup. This patch bypasses that operation by having both the name
and language of the main function symbol be provided ahead of time by the index.
In my testing (a binary with about 1.8GB worth of DWARF data) this change brings
startup time down from about 34 seconds to about 1.5 seconds.

There are two methods to factor out type information in a dwarf4 executable:
- use -fdebug-info-types to generate type units in a .debug_types section, and
- use dwz to create partial units.
The dwz method has an extra benefit: it also allows to factor out information
between executables into a newly created .dwz file, pointed to by a
.gnu_debugaltlink section.
There is nothing prohibiting a .gnu_debugaltlink file to contain a
.debug_types section.
It's just not generated by dwz or any other tool atm, and consequently gdb has
no support for it. Enhancement PR symtab/30838 is open about the lack of
support.
Make the current situation explicit by emitting a dwarf error:
...

...
and add an assert in write_gdbindex:
...
+ /* See enhancement PR symtab/30838. */
+ gdb_assert (!(per_cu->is_dwz && per_cu->is_debug_types));

to clarify why we can use:

This changes main_type to hold a language, and updates the debug
readers to set this field. This is done by adding the language to the
type-allocator object.
Note that the non-DWARF readers are changed on a "best effort" basis.
This patch also reimplements type::is_array_like to use the type's
language, and it adds a new type::is_string_like as well. This in
turn lets us change the Python implementation of these methods to
simply defer to the type.
In one spot, it will be convenient for a subsequent patch if the CU is
passed to a type-creation helper function. In another spot, remove
the redundant 'objfile' parameter to another such function.
init_fixed_point_type currently takes an objfile and creates its own
type allocator. However, for a later patch it is more convenient if
this function accepts a type allocator. This patch makes this change.

Handle multiple addresses in call_site_target
a buffer overflow bug was introduced when the following code was
added:
CORE_ADDR *saved = XOBNEWVAR (&objfile->objfile_obstack, CORE_ADDR,
addresses.size ());
std::copy (addresses.begin (), addresses.end (), saved);
The definition of XOBNEWVAR is (from libiberty.h):
#define XOBNEWVAR(O, T, S) ((T *) obstack_alloc ((O), (S)))
So 'saved' is going to point to addresses.size () bytes of memory,
however, the std::copy will write addresses.size () number of
CORE_ADDR sized entries to the address pointed to by 'saved', this is
going to result in memory corruption.
The mistake is that we should have used XOBNEWVEC, which allocates a
vector of entries, the definition of XOBNEWVEC is:
#define XOBNEWVEC(O, T, N) \
((T *) obstack_alloc ((O), sizeof (T) * (N)))
Which means we will have set aside enough space to create a copy of
the contents of the addresses vector.
I'm not sure how to create a test for this problem, this issue cropped
up when debugging a particular i686 built binary, which just happened
to trigger a glibc assertion (likely due to random memory corruption),
debugging the same binary built for x86-64 appeared to work just fine.
Using valgrind on the failing GDB binary pointed straight to the cause
of the problem, and with this patch in place there are no longer
valgrind errors in this area.
If anyone has ideas for a test I'm happy to work on something.
