With a test like this:
1 #include <dlfcn.h>
2 int
3 main ()
4 {
5 dlsym (RTLD_DEFAULT, "FOO");
6 return 0;
7 }
and then "start" followed by "until 6", GDB currently incorrectly
stops inside the runtime loader, instead of line 6. Vis:
...
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at until.c:5
4 {
(gdb) until 6
0x00007ffff7f0a90d in __GI__dl_catch_exception (exception=exception@entry=0x7fffffffdb00, operate=<optimized out>, args=0x7ffff7f0a90d <__GI__dl_catch_exception+109>) at dl-error-skeleton.c:206
206 dl-error-skeleton.c: No such file or directory.
(gdb)
The problem is related to longjmp handling -- dlsym internally
longjmps on error. The testcase can be reduced to this:
1 #include <setjmp.h>
2 void func () {
3 jmp_buf buf;
4 if (setjmp (buf) == 0)
5 longjmp (buf, 1);
6 }
7
8 int main () {
9 func ();
10 return 0; /* until to here */
11 }
and then with "start" followed by "until 10", GDB currently
incorrectly stops at line 4 (returning from setjmp), instead of line
10.
The problem is that the BPSTAT_WHAT_CLEAR_LONGJMP_RESUME code in
infrun.c fails to find the initiating frame, and so infrun thinks that
the longjmp jumped somewhere outer to "until"'s originating frame.
Here:
case BPSTAT_WHAT_CLEAR_LONGJMP_RESUME:
{
struct frame_info *init_frame;
/* There are several cases to consider.
1. The initiating frame no longer exists. In this case we
must stop, because the exception or longjmp has gone too
far.
...
init_frame = frame_find_by_id (ecs->event_thread->initiating_frame);
if (init_frame) // this is NULL!
{
...
}
/* For Cases 1 and 2, remove the step-resume breakpoint, if it
exists. */
delete_step_resume_breakpoint (ecs->event_thread);
end_stepping_range (ecs); // case 1., so we stop.
}
The initiating frame is set by until_break_command ->
set_longjmp_breakpoint. The initiating frame is supposed to be the
frame that is selected when the command was issued, but
until_break_command instead passes the frame id of the _caller_ frame
by mistake. When the "until LINE" command is issued from main, the
caller frame is the caller of main. When later infrun tries to find
that frame by id, it fails to find it, because frame_find_by_id
doesn't unwind past main.
The bug is that we passed the caller frame's id to
set_longjmp_breakpoint. We should have passed the selected frame's id
instead.

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.
