It is not a bug per se but rather a packaging error. And I'm also not sure if it isn't caused by my specific environment. Anyway to have the error message recorded, I'm filing this issue.

This fixes a gdb.base/multi-forks.exp regression with GDBserver.

Git commit f2ffa92 ("gdb: Eliminate the 'stop_pc' global") caused
the regression by exposing a latent bug in gdbserver.

The bug is that GDBserver's implementation of the D;PID packet
incorrectly assumes that the selected thread points to the process
being detached.  This happens via the any_persistent_commands call,
which calls current_process:

  (gdb) bt
  #0  0x000000000040a57e in internal_error(char const*, int, char const*, ...)
  (file=0x4a53c0 "src/gdb/gdbserver/inferiors.c", line=212, fmt=0x4a539e "%s:
  Assertion `%s' failed.") at src/gdb/gdbserver/../common/errors.c:54

  #5  0x0000000000434878 in handle_serial_event(int, void*) (err=0,
  client_data=0x0)

The "eliminate stop_pc" commit exposes the problem because before that
commit, GDB's switch_to_thread always read the newly-selected thread's
PC, and that would end up forcing GDBserver's selected thread to
change accordingly as side effect.  After that commit, GDB no longer
reads the thread's PC, and GDBserver does not switch the thread.

Fix this by removing the assumption from GDBserver.

This commit fixes a 8.1->8.2 regression exposed by
gdb.python/py-evthreads.exp when testing with
--target_board=native-gdbserver.

gdb.log shows:

  src/gdb/thread.c:93: internal-error: thread_info* inferior_thread(): Assertion `tp' failed.
  A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
  further debugging may prove unreliable.
  Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.python/py-evthreads.exp: run to breakpoint 1 (GDB internal error)

A backtrace shows (frames #2 and #10 highlighted) that the assertion
fails when GDB is setting up the connection to the remote target, in
non-stop mode:

So on frame #10, we're marking a newly-discovered thread as running,
and that causes the Python API to emit a gdb.ContinueEvent.
gdb.ContinueEvent is a gdb.ThreadEvent, and as such includes the event
thread as the "inferior_thread" attribute.  The problem is that when
we get to frame #3/#4, we lost all references to the thread that is
being marked as running.  create_continue_event_object assumes that it
is the current thread, which is not true in this case.

Fix this by passing down the right thread in
create_continue_event_object.  Also remove
create_thread_event_object's default argument and have the only other
caller left pass down the right thread explicitly too.

Errors that happen in nested sourced files (when a sourced file sources
another file) lead to a wrong error message, or use-after-free.

For example, if I put this in "a.gdb":

    command_that_doesnt_exist

and this in "b.gdb":

   source a.gdb

and try to "source b.gdb" in GDB, the result may look like this:

    (gdb) source b.gdb
    b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
    _that_doesnt_exist:1: Error in sourced command file:
    Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist".  Try "help".

Notice the wrong file name where "a.gdb" should be.  The exact result
may differ, depending on the feelings of the memory allocator.

What happens is:

- The "source a.gdb" command is saved by command_line_append_input_line
  in command_line_input's static buffer.
- Since we are sourcing a file, the script_from_file function stores the
  script name (a.gdb) in the source_file_name global.  However, it doesn't
  do a copy, it just saves a pointer to command_line_input's static buffer.
- The "command_that_doesnt_exist" command is saved by
  command_line_append_input_line in command_line_input's static buffer.
  Depending on what xrealloc does, source_file_name may now point to
  freed memory, or at the minimum the data it was pointing to was
  overwritten.
- When the error is handled in script_from_file, we dererence
  source_file_name to print the name of the file in which the error
  occured.

To fix it, I made source_file_name an std::string, so that keeps a copy of
the file name instead of pointing to a buffer with a too small
lifetime.

With this patch, the expected filename is printed, and no use-after-free
occurs:

    (gdb) source b.gdb
    b.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
    a.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
    Undefined command: "command_that_doesnt_exist".  Try "help".

I passed explicit template parameters to make_scoped_restore
(<std::string, const std::string &>), so that the second parameter is
passed by reference and avoid a copy.

It was not as obvious as I first thought to change gdb.base/source.exp
to test this, because source commands inside sourced files are
interpreted relative to GDB's current working directory, not the
directory of the currently sourced file.  As a workaround, I moved the
snippet that tests errors after the snippet that adds the source
directory to the search path.  This way, the "source source-error-1.gdb"
line in source-error.exp manages to find the file.

For reference, here is what ASAN reports when use-after-free occurs:

Commit ab42892 ("Fix vertical scrolling of TUI source window")
introduced a use-after-free in source_cache::get_source_lines.

At the beginning of the method, we get the fullname of the symtab:

    const char *fullname = symtab_to_fullname (s);

fullname points to the string owned by the symtab (s.fullname).  When we
later do

    scoped_fd desc = open_source_file (s);

s.fullname gets reallocated (even though the string contents may not
change).  The fullname local variable now points to freed memory.

To avoid it, refresh the value of fullname after calling
open_source_file.

Here is the ASan report:

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* source-cache.c (source_cache::get_source_lines): Re-read
	fullname after calling open_source_file.
jeffmahoney pushed a commit that referenced this issue Apr 16, 2019
…trace

The test  gdb.threads/watchthreads-reorder.exp verifies that the
'set debug infrun 1' debug output does not crash GDB.

Under high load, the test can still cause a GDB internal error (see details
below).

This patch fixes this crash, and improves/factorises some wait kind traces.

Tested on debian/amd64 + run one test with 'set debug infrun 1'.

Changes compared to the first version:
  * Handles the suggestions of Kevin to trace the relevant elements
    of the wait status (this is done by calling target_waitstatus_to_string).
  * Some other changes to factorise wait status tracing.

Note that using target_waitstatus_to_string instead of the 'locally printed'
status kind strings means that debug trace that was using strings such as:
   "EXITED" or "TARGET_WAITKIND_EXITED"
will now use what is printed by target_waitstatus_to_string e.g.
   "exited".

gdb/ChangeLog
2019-04-01  Philippe Waroquiers  <[email protected]>

	* infrun.c (stop_all_threads): If debug_infrun, always
	trace the wait status after wait_one, using
	target_waitstatus_to_string and target_pid_to_str.
	(handle_inferior_event): Replace various trace of
	wait status kind by a single trace.
	* gdb/gnu-nat.c (gnu_nat_target::wait): Replace local
	wait status kind image by target_waitstatus_to_string.
	* target/waitstatus.c (target_waitstatus_to_string): Fix
	obsolete comment.
