This updates the copyright headers to include 2026. I did this by
running gdb/copyright.py and then manually modifying a few files as
noted by the script.
This commit starts adding some core file related features to the
Python API.
In this initial commit I've tried to keep the changes as small as
possible for easy review.
There's a new Python class gdb.Corefile, which represents a loaded
core file. This API doesn't allow the user to create their own
gdb.Corefile objects, a core file must be loaded using the 'core-file'
command, then a gdb.Corefile object can be obtained by querying the
inferior in which the core file was loaded.
There's a new attribute gdb.Inferior.corefile, this is None when no
core file is loaded, or contains a gdb.Corefile object if a core file
has been loaded.
Currently, the gdb.Corefile object has one attribute, and one method,
these are:
gdb.Corefile.filename -- the file name of the loaded core file.
gdb.Corefile.is_valid() -- indicates if a gdb.Corefile object is
valid or not. See notes below.
A gdb.Corefile object is only valid while the corresponding core file
is loaded into an inferior. Unloading the core file, or loading a
different one will cause a gdb.Corefile object to become invalid. For
example:
(gdb) core-file /tmp/core.54313
... snip ...
(gdb) python core=gdb.selected_inferior().corefile
(gdb) python print(core)
<gdb.Corefile inferior=1 filename='/tmp/core.54313'>
(gdb) python print(core.is_valid())
True
(gdb) core-file
No core file now.
(gdb) python print(core)
<gdb.Corefile (invalid)>
(gdb) python print(core.is_valid())
False
(gdb)
In order to track changes to the core file, there is a new observable
'core_file_changed', which accounts for the changes in corelow.c,
observable,c, and observable.h. Currently, this observable is not
visible as a Python event.
I chose to access the core file via the inferior even though the core
file BFD object is actually stored within the program_space. As such,
it might seem that the natural choice would be to add the attribute as
gdb.Progspace.corefile.
For background reading on my choice, please see:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/577f2c47793acb501c2611c0e6c7ea379f774830.1668789658.git.aburgess@redhat.com
This patch was never merged, it is still on my backlog, but the
observation in that work is that some targets are not really
shareable. For example, the core_target (corelow.c) stores
information about the loaded core file within the target instance. As
such, each target instance represents a single loaded core file.
Except that the BFD part of the core file is stored in the
program_space, which is a little weird.
During review, Tom made the observation, that maybe we should
investigate moving the core file BFD into the core_target. I'm
inclined to agree with this as a direction of travel.
All this leaves us with two observations:
1. Currently, loading a core file into an inferior, then using
'add-inferior' will try to share the core_target between
inferiors. This is broken, and can trigger GDB crashes. The
obvious fix, without reworking core_target, is just to prevent
this sharing, making core_target per-inferior.
2. Having the core file information split between the core_target
instance, and the BFD stored in the program_space is a little
weird, and is really just historical. Planning for a future
where the BFD is also stored in the core_target might be wise.
So, if we imagine that the BFD is (one day) moved into the
core_target, and that the core_target really becomes non-shareable,
then it is, I think, clearer that the corefile attribute should live
on the gdb.Inferior object, not the gdb.Progspace object.
There's testing for all the functionality added in this commit.

This patch introduces a new macro, INIT_GDB_FILE. This is used to
replace the current "_initialize_" idiom when introducing a per-file
initialization function. That is, rather than write:
void _initialize_something ();
void
_initialize_something ()
{
...
}
... now you would write:
INIT_GDB_FILE (something)
{
...
}
The macro handles both the declaration and definition of the function.
The point of this approach is that it makes it harder to accidentally
cause an initializer to be omitted; see commit 2711e475 ("Ensure
cooked_index_entry self-tests are run"). Specifically, the regexp now
used by make-init-c seems harder to trick.

Most files including gdbcmd.h currently rely on it to access things

things easy, replace all includes of gdbcmd.h with includes of
cli/cli-cmds.h. This might lead to some unused includes of

This commit is the result of the following actions:
- Running gdb/copyright.py to update all of the copyright headers to
include 2024,
- Manually updating a few files the copyright.py script told me to
update, these files had copyright headers embedded within the
file,
- Regenerating gdbsupport/Makefile.in to refresh it's copyright
date,
- Using grep to find other files that still mentioned 2023. If
these files were updated last year from 2022 to 2023 then I've
updated them this year to 2024.
I'm sure I've probably missed some dates. Feel free to fix them up as
you spot them.
Currently, if you step over kernel exit, you see:
stepi
[AMDGPU Wave ?:?:?:1 (?,?,?)/? exited]
Command aborted, thread exited.
(gdb)
Those '?' are because the thread/wave is already gone by the time GDB
prints the "exited" notification, we can't ask dbgapi for any info
about the wave anymore.
This commit fixes it by caching the wave's coordinates as soon as GDB
sees the wave for the first time, and making
amd_dbgapi_target::pid_to_str use the cached info.
At first I thought of clearing the wave_info object from a
thread_exited observer. However, that is too soon, resulting in this:
(gdb) si
[AMDGPU Wave 1:4:1:1 (0,0,0)/0 exited]
Command aborted, thread exited.
(gdb) thread
[Current thread is 6 (AMDGPU Wave ?:?:?:0 (?,?,?)/?) (exited)]
We need instead to clear the wave info when the thread is ultimately
deleted, so we get:
(gdb) si
[AMDGPU Wave 1:4:1:1 (0,0,0)/0 exited]
Command aborted, thread exited.
(gdb) thread
[Current thread is 6 (AMDGPU Wave 1:4:1:1 (0,0,0)/0) (exited)]
And for that, we need a new thread_deleted observable.

This commit replaces the architecture_changed observer with a
new_architecture observer.
Currently the only user of the architecture_changed observer is the
Python code, which uses this observer to register the Python unwinder
with the architecture.
The problem is that the architecture_changed observer is triggered
from inferior::set_arch(), which only sees the inferior-wide gdbarch
value. For targets that use thread-specific architectures, these
never trigger the architecture_changed observer, and so never have the
Python unwinder registered with them.
When it comes to unwinding GDB makes use of the frame's gdbarch, which
is based on the thread's regcache gdbarch, which is set in
get_thread_regcache to the value returned from
target_thread_architecture, which is not always the inferiors gdbarch
value, it might be a thread-specific gdbarch which has not passed
through inferior::set_arch().
The new_architecture observer will be triggered from
gdbarch_find_by_info, whenever a new gdbarch is created and
initialised. As GDB caches and reuses gdbarch values, we should
expect to see each new architecture trigger the new_architecture
observer just once.
After this commit, targets that make use of thread-specific
architectures should be able to make use of Python unwinders.
As I don't have access to a machine that makes use of thread-specific
architectures right now, I asked Luis to confirm that an AArch64
target that uses SVE/SME can't use the Python unwinders in threads
that are using a thread-specific architectures, and he confirmed that
this is indeed the case, see this discussion:

The new_objfile observer is currently used to indicate both when a new
objfile is added to program space (when passed non-nullptr) and when all
objfiles of a program space were just removed (when passed nullptr).
I think this is confusing (and Andrew apparently thinks so too [1]).
Add a new "all_objfiles_removed" observer to remove the second role from
"new_objfile".
Some existing users of new_objfile do nothing if the passed objfile is
nullptr. For them, we can simply drop the nullptr check. For others,
add a new all_objfiles_removed callback, and refactor things a bit to
keep the existing behavior as much as possible.
Some callbacks relied on current_program_space, and following
the refactoring now use either objfile->pspace or the pspace passed to
all_objfiles_removed. I think this should be relatively safe, and in
general a step in the right direction.
On the notify side, I found only one call site to change from
new_objfile to all_objfiles_removed, in clear_symtab_users. It is not
entirely clear to me that this is entirely correct. clear_symtab_users
appears to be called in spots that don't remove all objfiles
(functions finish_new_objfile, remove_symbol_file_command, reread_symbols,
do_module_cleanups). But I think that this patch at least makes the
current code clearer.

Initially I just wanted a Python event for when GDB removes a program
space, I'm writing a Python extension that caches information for each
program space, and need to know when I should discard entries for a
particular program space.
But, it seemed easy enough to also add an event for when GDB adds a
new program space, so I went ahead and added both new events.
Of course, we don't currently have an observable for program space
addition or removal, so I first needed to add these. After that it's
pretty simple to add two new Python events and have these trigger.
The two new event registries are:
events.new_progspace
events.free_progspace
These emit NewProgspaceEvent and FreeProgspaceEvent objects
respectively, each of these new event types has a 'progspace'
attribute that contains the relevant gdb.Progspace object.
There's a couple of things to be mindful of.
First, it is not possible to catch the NewProgspaceEvent for the very
first program space, the one that is created when GDB first starts, as
this program space is created before any Python scripts are sourced.
In order to allow this event to be caught we would need to defer
creating the first program space, and as a consequence the first
inferior, until some later time. But, existing scripts could easily
depend on there being an initial inferior, so I really don't think we
should change that -- and so, we end up with the consequence that we
can't catch the event for the first program space.
The second, I think minor, issue, is that GDB doesn't clean up its
program spaces upon exit -- or at least, they are not cleaned up
before Python is shut down. As a result, any program spaces in use at
the time GDB exits don't generate a FreeProgspaceEvent. I'm not
particularly worried about this for my use case, I'm using the event
to ensure that a cache doesn't hold stale entries within a single GDB
session. It's also easy enough to add a Python at-exit callback which
can do any final cleanup if needed.
Finally, when testing, I did hit a slightly weird issue with some of
the remote boards (e.g. remote-stdio-gdbserver). As a consequence of
this issue I see some output like this in the gdb.log:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp: inferior 1
step
FreeProgspaceEvent: <gdb.Progspace object at 0x7fb7e1d19c10>

41 ++global_var;
(gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp: step
The 'FreeProgspaceEvent ...' line is expected, that's my test Python
extension logging the event. What isn't expected are all the blocks
like:
warning: cannot close "target:/lib64/libm.so.6": Cannot execute this command while the target is running.
Use the "interrupt" command to stop the target
and then try again.
It turns out that this has nothing to do with my changes, this is just
a consequence of reading files over the remote protocol. The test
forks a child process which GDB stays attached too. When the child
exits, GDB cleans up by calling prune_inferiors, which in turn can
result in GDB trying to close some files that are open because of the
inferior being deleted.
If the prune_inferiors call occurs when the remote target is
running (and in non-async mode) then GDB will try to send a fileio
packet while the remote target is waiting for a stop reply, and the
remote target will throw an error, see remote_target::putpkt_binary in
remote.c for details.
I'm going to look at fixing this, but, as I said, this is nothing to
do with this change, I just mention it because I ended up needing to
account for these warning messages in one of my tests, and it all
looks a bit weird.

In the upcoming patch to support fork in the amd-dbgapi target, the
amd-dbgapi target will need to be notified of fork events through an
observer, to attach itself (attach in the amd-dbgapi sense, not ptrace
sense) to the new inferior / process.
The reason that this can't be done through target_ops::follow_fork is
that the amd-dbgapi target isn't pushed on the inferior's target stack
right away. It attaches itself to the process and only pushes itself on
its target stack if and when the inferior initializes the ROCm runtime.
If an inferior that is not using the ROCm runtime forks, we want to be
notified of it, so we can attach to the child, and catch if the child
starts using the ROCm runtime.
So, add a new observable and notify it in follow_fork_inferior. It will
be used later in this series.

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
Now that filtered and unfiltered output can be treated identically, we
can unify the printf family of functions. This is done under the name
"gdb_printf". Most of this patch was written by script.
Commit b60cea7 (Make target_wait options use enum flags) broke
deprecated_target_wait_hook usage: there's a commit comment telling
this hook has not been converted.
Rather than trying to mend it, this patch replaces the hook by two
target_wait observers:
target_pre_wait (ptid_t ptid)
target_post_wait (ptid_t event_ptid)
Upon target_wait entry, target_pre_wait is notified with the ptid
passed to target_wait. Upon exit, target_post_wait is notified with
the event ptid returned by target_wait. Should an exception occur,
event_ptid is null_ptid.
This change benefits to Insight (out-of-tree): there's no real use of the
late hook in gdb itself.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
This commit adds a new object type gdb.TargetConnection. This new
type represents a connection within GDB (a connection as displayed by
'info connections').
There's three ways to find a gdb.TargetConnection, there's a new
'gdb.connections()' function, which returns a list of all currently
active connections.
Or you can read the new 'connection' property on the gdb.Inferior
object type, this contains the connection for that inferior (or None
if the inferior has no connection, for example, it is exited).
Finally, there's a new gdb.events.connection_removed event registry,
this emits a new gdb.ConnectionEvent whenever a connection is removed
from GDB (this can happen when all inferiors using a connection exit,
though this is not always the case, depending on the connection type).
The gdb.ConnectionEvent has a 'connection' property, which is the
gdb.TargetConnection being removed from GDB.
The gdb.TargetConnection has an 'is_valid()' method. A connection
object becomes invalid when the underlying connection is removed from
GDB (as discussed above, this might be when all inferiors using a
connection exit, or it might be when the user explicitly replaces a
connection in GDB by issuing another 'target' command).
The gdb.TargetConnection has the following read-only properties:
'num': The number for this connection,
'type': e.g. 'native', 'remote', 'sim', etc
'description': The longer description as seen in the 'info
connections' command output.
'details': A string or None. Extra details for the connection, for
example, a remote connection's details might be
'hostname:port'.
In a later commit I plan to add disassembler styling. In the same way
that we have a source_styling_changed observer I would need to add a
disassembler_styling_changed observer.
However, currently, these observers would only be notified from
cli-style.c:set_style_enabled, and observed in tui-winsource.c,
tui_source_window::style_changed, as a result, having two observers
seems unnecessary right now, so, in this commit, I plan to rename
source_styling_changed to just styling_changed, then, in the later
commit, when disassembler styling is added, I can use the same
observer for both source styling, and disassembler styling.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
Add a new event, gdb.events.gdb_exiting, which is called once GDB
decides it is going to exit.
This event is not triggered in the case that GDB performs a hard
abort, for example, when handling an internal error and the user
decides to quit the debug session, or if GDB hits an unexpected,
fatal, signal.
This event is triggered if the user just types 'quit' at the command
prompt, or if GDB is run with '-batch' and has processed all of the
required commands.
The new event type is gdb.GdbExitingEvent, and it has a single
attribute exit_code, which is the value that GDB is about to exit
with.
The event is triggered before GDB starts dismantling any of its own
internal state, so, my expectation is that most Python calls should
work just fine at this point.
When considering this functionality I wondered about using the
'atexit' Python module. However, this is triggered when the Python
environment is shut down, which is done from a final cleanup. At
this point we don't know for sure what other GDB state has already
been cleaned up.
This commits the result of running gdb/copyright.py as per our Start
of New Year procedure...

Note that one file was flagged by the script, due to an invalid

leaves this file untouched for the time being; a patch to fix the header
was sent to gcc-patches first.
gdb/ChangeLog:

This converts observers from using a special source-generating script
to be plain C++. This version of the patch takes advantage of C++11
by using std::function and variadic templates; incorporates Pedro's
patches; and renames the header file to "observable.h" (this change
eliminates the need for a clean rebuild).
Note that Pedro's patches used a template lambda in tui-hooks.c, but
this failed to compile on some buildbot instances (presumably due to
differing C++ versions); I replaced this with an ordinary template
function.
