Commit Message

Andrew Burgess March 5, 2024, 3:21 p.m. UTC
  The initial motivation for this commit was to allow thread or inferior
specific breakpoints to only be inserted within the appropriate
inferior's program-space.  The benefit of this is that inferiors for
which the breakpoint does not apply will no longer need to stop, and
then resume, for such breakpoints.  This commit does not make this
change, but is a refactor to allow this to happen in a later commit.

The problem we currently have is that when a thread-specific (or
inferior-specific) breakpoint is created, the thread (or inferior)
number is only parsed by calling find_condition_and_thread_for_sals.
This function is only called for non-pending breakpoints, and requires
that we know the locations at which the breakpoint will be placed (for
expression checking in case the breakpoint is also conditional).

A consequence of this is that by the time we figure out the breakpoint
is thread-specific we have already looked up locations in all program
spaces.  This feels wasteful -- if we knew the thread-id earlier then
we could reduce the work GDB does by only looking up locations within
the program space for which the breakpoint applies.

Another consequence of how find_condition_and_thread_for_sals is
called is that pending breakpoints don't currently know they are
thread-specific, nor even that they are conditional!  Additionally, by
delaying parsing the thread-id, pending breakpoints can be created for
non-existent threads, this is different to how non-pending
breakpoints are handled, so I can do this:

  $ gdb -q ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/pending-bp/pending-bp
  Reading symbols from ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/pending-bp/pending-bp...
  (gdb) break foo thread 99
  Function "foo" not defined.
  Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) y
  Breakpoint 1 (foo thread 99) pending.
  (gdb) r
  Starting program: /tmp/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/pending-bp/pending-bp
  [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
  Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
  Error in re-setting breakpoint 1: Unknown thread 99.
  [Inferior 1 (process 3329749) exited normally]
  (gdb)

GDB only checked the validity of 'thread 99' at the point the 'foo'
location became non-pending.  In contrast, if I try this:

  $ gdb -q ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/pending-bp/pending-bp
  Reading symbols from ./gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/pending-bp/pending-bp...
  (gdb) break main thread 99
  Unknown thread 99.
  (gdb)

GDB immediately checks if 'thread 99' exists.  I think inconsistencies
like this are confusing, and should be fixed if possible.

In this commit the create_breakpoint function is updated so that the
extra_string, which contains the thread, inferior, task, and/or
condition information, is parsed immediately, even for pending
breakpoints.

Obviously, the condition still can't be validated until the breakpoint
becomes non-pending, but the thread, inferior, and task information
can be pulled from the extra-string, and can be validated early on,
even for pending breakpoints.  The -force-condition flag is also
parsed as part of this early parsing change.

There are a couple of benefits to doing this:

1. Printing of breakpoints is more consistent now.  Consider creating
   a conditional breakpoint before this commit:

    (gdb) set breakpoint pending on
    (gdb) break pendingfunc if (0)
    Function "pendingfunc" not defined.
    Breakpoint 1 (pendingfunc if (0)) pending.
    (gdb) break main if (0)
    Breakpoint 2 at 0x401198: file /tmp/hello.c, line 18.
    (gdb) info breakpoints
    Num     Type           Disp Enb Address            What
    1       breakpoint     keep y   <PENDING>          pendingfunc if (0)
    2       breakpoint     keep y   0x0000000000401198 in main at /tmp/hello.c:18
            stop only if (0)
    (gdb)

   And after this commit:

    (gdb) set breakpoint pending on
    (gdb) break pendingfunc if (0)
    Function "pendingfunc" not defined.
    Breakpoint 1 (pendingfunc) pending.
    (gdb) break main if (0)
    Breakpoint 2 at 0x401198: file /home/andrew/tmp/hello.c, line 18.
    (gdb) info breakpoints
    Num     Type           Disp Enb Address            What
    1       breakpoint     keep y   <PENDING>          pendingfunc
            stop only if (0)
    2       breakpoint     keep y   0x0000000000401198 in main at /home/andrew/tmp/hello.c:18
            stop only if (0)
    (gdb)

   Notice that the display of the condition is now the same for the
   pending and non-pending breakpoints.

   The same is true for the thread, inferior, or task information in
   thread, inferior, or task specific breakpoints; this information is
   displayed on its own line rather than being part of the 'What'
   field.

2. We can check that the thread exists as soon as the pending
   breakpoint is created.  Currently there is a weird difference
   between pending and non-pending breakpoints when creating a
   thread-specific breakpoint.

   A pending thread-specific breakpoint only checks its thread when it
   becomes non-pending, at which point the thread the breakpoint was
   intended for might have exited.  Here's the behaviour before this
   commit:

    (gdb) set breakpoint pending on
    (gdb) break foo thread 2
    Function "foo" not defined.
    Breakpoint 2 (foo thread 2) pending.
    (gdb) c
    Continuing.
    [Thread 0x7ffff7c56700 (LWP 2948835) exited]
    Error in re-setting breakpoint 2: Unknown thread 2.
    [Inferior 1 (process 2948832) exited normally]
    (gdb)

   Notice the 'Error in re-setting breakpoint 2: Unknown thread 2.'
   line, this was triggered when GDB tried to make the breakpoint
   non-pending, and GDB discovers that the thread no longer exists.

   Compare that to the behaviour after this commit:

    (gdb) set breakpoint pending on
    (gdb) break foo thread 2
    Function "foo" not defined.
    Breakpoint 2 (foo) pending.
    (gdb) c
    Continuing.
    [Thread 0x7ffff7c56700 (LWP 2949243) exited]
    Thread-specific breakpoint 2 deleted - thread 2 no longer in the thread list.
    [Inferior 1 (process 2949240) exited normally]
    (gdb)

   Now the behaviour for pending breakpoints is identical to
   non-pending breakpoints, the thread specific breakpoint is removed
   as soon as the thread the breakpoint is associated with exits.

   There is an additional change; when the pending breakpoint is
   created prior to this patch we see this line:

     Breakpoint 2 (foo thread 2) pending.

   While after this patch we get this line:

     Breakpoint 2 (foo) pending.

   Notice that 'thread 2' has disappeared.  This might look like a
   regression, but I don't think it is.  That we said 'thread 2'
   before was just a consequence of the lazy parsing of the breakpoint
   specification, while with this patch GDB understands, and has
   parsed away the 'thread 2' bit of the spec.  If folk think the old
   information was useful then this would be trivial to add back in
   code_breakpoint::say_where.

As a result of this commit the breakpoints 'extra_string' field is now
only used by bp_dprintf type breakpoints to hold the printf format and
arguments.  This string should always be empty for other breakpoint
types.  This allows some cleanup in print_breakpoint_location.

In code_breakpoint::code_breakpoint I've changed an error case into an
assert.  This is because the error is now handled earlier in
create_breakpoint.  As a result we know that by this point, the
extra_string will always be nullptr for anything other than a
bp_dprintf style breakpoint.

The find_condition_and_thread_for_sals function is now no longer
needed, this was previously doing the delayed splitting of the extra
string into thread, task, and condition, but this is now all done in
create_breakpoint, so find_condition_and_thread_for_sals can be
deleted, and the code that calls this in
code_breakpoint::location_spec_to_sals can be removed.  With this
update this code would only ever be reached for bp_dprintf style
breakpoints, and in these cases the extra_string should not contain
anything other than format and args.

The most interesting changes are all in create_breakpoint and in the
new file break-cond-parse.c.  We have a new block of code early on in
create_breakpoint that is responsible for splitting the extra_string
into its component parts by calling create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string
a function in the new break-cond-parse.c file.  This means that some
of the later code can be simplified a little.

The new break-cond-parse.c file implements the splitting up the
extra_string and finding all the parts, as well as some self-tests for
the new function.

Finally, now we know all the breakpoint details, these can be stored
within the breakpoint object if we end up creating a deferred
breakpoint.  Additionally, if we are creating a deferred bp_dprintf we
can parse the extra_string to build the printf command.

The implementation here aims to maintain backwards compatibility as
much as possible, this means that:

  1. We support abbreviations of 'thread', 'task', and 'inferior' in
  some places on the breakpoint line.  The handling of abbreviations
  has (before this patch) been a little weird, so this works:

  (gdb) break *main th 1

  And creates a breakpoint at '*main' for thread 1 only, while this
  does not work:

  (gdb) break main th 1

  In this case GDB will try to find the symbol 'main th 1'.  This
  weirdness exists before and after this patch.

  2. The handling of '-force-condition' is odd, if this flag appears
  immediately after a condition then it will be treated as part of the
  condition, e.g.:

  (gdb) break main if 0 -force-condition
  No symbol "force" in current context.

  But we are fine with these alternatives:

  (gdb) break main if 0 thread 1 -force-condition
  (gdb) break main -force-condition if 0

  Again, this is just a quirk of how the breakpoint line used to be
  parsed, but I've maintained this for backward compatibility.  During
  review it was suggested that -force-condition should become an
  actual breakpoint flag (i.e. only valid after the 'break' command
  but before the function name), and I don't think that would be a
  terrible idea, however, that's not currently a trivial change, and I
  think should be done as a separate piece of work.  For now, this
  patch just maintains the current behaviour.

The implementation works by first splitting the breakpoint condition
string (everything after the location specification) into a list of
tokens, each token has a type and a value. (e.g. we have a THREAD
token where the value is the thread-id string).  The list of tokens is
validated, and in some cases, tokens are merged.  Then the values are
extracted from the remaining token list.

Consider this breakpoint command:

  (gdb) break main thread 1 if argc == 2

The condition string passed to create_breakpoint_parse_arg_string is
going to be 'thread 1 if argc == 2', which is then split into the
tokens:

  { THREAD: "1" } { CONDITION: "argc == 2" }

The thread-id (1) and the condition string 'argc == 2' are extracted
from these tokens and returns back to create_breakpoint.

Now consider this breakpoint command:

  (gdb) break some_function if ( some_var == thread )

Here the user wants a breakpoint if 'some_var' is equal to the
variable 'thread'.  However, when this is initially parsed we will
find these tokens:

  { CONDITION: "( some_var == " } { THREAD: ")" }

This is a consequence of how we have to try and figure out the
contents of the 'if' condition without actually parsing the
expression; parsing the expression requires that we know the location
in order to lookup the variables by name, and this can't be done for
pending breakpoints (their location isn't known yet), and one of the
points of this work is that we extract things like thread-id for
pending breakpoints.

And so, it is in this case that token merging takes place.  We check
if the value of a token appearing immediately after the CONDITION
token looks valid.  In this case, does ')' look like a valid
thread-id.  Clearly, in this case ')' does not, and so me merge the
THREAD token into the condition token, giving:

  { CONDITION: "( some_var == thread )" }

Which is what we want.

I'm sure that we might still be able to come up with some edge cases
where the parser makes the wrong choice.  I think long term the best
way to work around these would be to move the thread, inferior, task,
and -force-condition flags to be "real" command options for the break
command.  I am looking into doing this, but can't guarantee if/when
that work would be completed, so this patch should be reviewed assume
that the work will never arrive (though I hope it will).
