Teach non-stop to do in-line step-overs (stop all, step, restart)
That is, step past breakpoints by: - pausing all threads - removing breakpoint at PC - single-step - reinsert breakpoint - restart threads similarly to all-stop (with displaced stepping disabled). This allows non-stop to work on targets/architectures without displaced stepping support. That is, it makes displaced stepping an optimization instead of a requirement. For example, in principle, all GNU/Linux ports support non-stop mode at the target_ops level, but not all corresponding gdbarch's implement displaced stepping. This should make non-stop work for all (albeit, not as efficiently). And then there are scenarios where even if the architecture supports displaced stepping, we can't use it, because we e.g., don't find a usable address to use as displaced step scratch pad. It should also fix stepping past watchpoints on targets that have non-continuable watchpoints in non-stop mode (e.g., PPC, untested). Running the instruction out of line in the displaced stepping scratch pad doesn't help that case, as the copied instruction reads/writes the same watched memory... We can fix that too by teaching GDB to only remove the watchpoint from the thread that we want to move past the watchpoint (currently, removing a watchpoint always removes it from all threads), but again, that can be considered an optimization; not all targets would support it. For those familiar with the gdb and gdbserver Linux target_ops backends, the implementation should look similar, except it is done on the core side. When we pause threads, we may find they stop with an interesting event that should be handled later when the thread is re-resumed, thus we store such events in the thread object, and mark the event as pending. We should only consume pending events if the thread is indeed resumed, thus we add a new "resumed" flag to the thread object. At a later stage, we might add new target methods to accelerate some of this, like "pause all threads", with corresponding RSP packets, but we'd still need a fallback method for remote targets that don't support such packets, so, again, that can be deferred as optimization. My _real_ motivation here is making it possible to reimplement all-stop mode on top of the target always working on non-stop mode, so that e.g., we can send RSP packets to a remote target even while the target is running -- can't do that in the all-stop RSP variant, by design). Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "set displaced off" forced.

Use keep_going in proceed and start_step_over too
The main motivation of this patch is sharing more code between the proceed (starting the inferior for the first time) and keep_going (restarting the inferior after handling an event) paths and using the step_over_chain queue now embedded in the thread_info object for pending in-line step-overs too (instead of just for displaced stepping). So this commit: - splits out a new keep_going_pass_signal function out of keep_going that is just like keep_going except for the bits that clear the signal to pass if the signal is set to "handle nopass". - makes proceed use keep_going too. - Makes start_step_over use keep_going_pass_signal instead of lower level displaced stepping things. One user visible change: if inserting breakpoints while trying to proceed fails, we now get: (gdb) si Warning: Could not insert hardware watchpoint 7. Could not insert hardware breakpoints: You may have requested too many hardware breakpoints/watchpoints. Command aborted. (gdb) while before we only saw warnings with no indication that the command was cancelled: (gdb) si Warning: Could not insert hardware watchpoint 7. Could not insert hardware breakpoints: You may have requested too many hardware breakpoints/watchpoints.

Embed the pending step-over chain in thread_info objects
In order to teach non-stop mode to do in-line step-overs (pause all threads, remove breakpoint, single-step, reinsert breakpoint, restart threads), we'll need to be able to queue in-line step over requests, much like we queue displaced stepping (out-of-line) requests. Actually, the queue should be the same -- threads wait for their turn to step past something (breakpoint, watchpoint), doesn't matter what technique we end up using when the step over actually starts. I found that the queue management ends up simpler and more efficient if embedded in the thread objects themselves. This commit converts the existing displaced stepping queue to that. Later patches will make the in-line step-overs code paths use it too. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-08-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdbthread.h (struct thread_info) <step_over_prev, step_over_next>: New fields.

update thread list, delete exited threads
On GNU/Linux, if the running kernel supports clone events, then linux-thread-db.c defers thread listing to the target beneath: static void thread_db_update_thread_list (struct target_ops *ops) { ... if (target_has_execution && !thread_db_use_events ()) ops->beneath->to_update_thread_list (ops->beneath); else thread_db_update_thread_list_td_ta_thr_iter (ops); ... } However, when live debugging, the target beneath, linux-nat.c, does not implement the to_update_thread_list method. The result is that if a thread is marked exited (because it can't be deleted right now, e.g., it was the selected thread), then it won't ever be deleted, until the process exits or is killed/detached. A similar thing happens with the remote.c target. Because its target_update_thread_list implementation skips exited threads when it walks the current thread list looking for threads that no longer exits on the target side, using ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS_SAFE, stale exited threads are never deleted. This is not a big deal -- I can't think of any way this might be user visible, other than gdb's memory growing a tiny bit whenever a thread gets stuck in exited state. Still, might as well clean things up properly. All other targets use prune_threads, so are unaffected. The fix adds a ALL_THREADS_SAFE macro, that like ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS_SAFE, walks the thread list and allows deleting the iterated thread, and uses that in places that are walking the thread list in order to delete threads. Actually, after converting linux-nat.c and remote.c to use this, we find the only other user of ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS_SAFE is also walking the list to delete threads. So we convert that too, and end up deleting ALL_NON_EXITED_THREADS_SAFE.

Make "set scheduler-locking step" depend on user intention, only
Currently, "set scheduler-locking step" is a bit odd. The manual documents it as being optimized for stepping, so that focus of debugging does not change unexpectedly, but then it says that sometimes other threads may run, and thus focus may indeed change unexpectedly... A user can then be excused to get confused and wonder why does GDB behave like this. I don't think a user should have to know about details of how "next" or whatever other run control command is implemented internally to understand when does the "scheduler-locking step" setting take effect. This patch completes a transition that the code has been moving towards for a while. It makes "set scheduler-locking step" hold threads depending on whether the _command_ the user entered was a stepping command [step/stepi/next/nexti], or not. Before, GDB could end up locking threads even on "continue" if for some reason run control decides a thread needs to be single stepped (e.g., for a software watchpoint). After, if a "continue" happens to need to single-step for some reason, we won't lock threads (unless when stepping over a breakpoint, naturally). And if a stepping command wants to continue a thread for bit, like when skipping a function to a step-resume breakpoint, we'll still lock threads, so focus of debugging doesn't change. In order to make this work, we need to record in the thread structure whether what set it running was a stepping command. (A follow up patch will remove the "step" parameters of 'proceed' and 'resume') FWIW, Fedora GDB, which defaults to "scheduler-locking step" (mainline defaults to "off") carries a different patch that goes in this direction as well. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-03-24 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdbthread.h (struct thread_control_state) <stepping_command>: New field. * infcmd.c (step_once): Pass step=1 to clear_proceed_status.

C++ keyword cleanliness, mostly auto-generated
This patch renames symbols that happen to have names which are reserved keywords in C++. Most of this was generated with Tromey's cxx-conversion.el script. Some places where later hand massaged a bit, to fix formatting, etc. And this was rebased several times meanwhile, along with re-running the script, so re-running the script from scratch probably does not result in the exact same output. I don't think that matters anyway. gdb/ 2015-02-27 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Rename symbols whose names are reserved C++ keywords throughout. gdb/gdbserver/ 2015-02-27 Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com> Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Rename symbols whose names are reserved C++ keywords throughout. |

Print current thread after loading a core file
downstream Fedora request: Please make it easier to find the backtrace of the crashing thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1024504 Currently after loading a core file GDB prints: Core was generated by `./threadcrash1'. Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 8 *(volatile int *)0=0; (gdb) _ there is nowhere seen which of the threads had crashed. In reality GDB always numbers that thread as #1 and it is the current thread that time. But after dumping all the info into a file for later analysis it is no longer obvious. 'thread apply all bt' even puts the thread #1 to the _end_ of the output!!! Should GDB always print after loading a core file what "thread" command would print? [Current thread is 1 (Thread 0x7fcbe28fe700 (LWP 15453))] BTW I think it will print the thread even when loading single/non-threaded core file when other inferior(s) exist. But that currently crashes [Bug threads/12074] multi-inferior internal error https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12074 plus I think that would be a correct behavior anyway. gdb/ChangeLog 2015-01-22 Jan Kratochvil <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> * corelow.c (core_open): Call also thread_command. * gdbthread.h (thread_command): New prototype moved from ... * thread.c (thread_command): ... here.

PR gdb/12623: non-stop crashes inferior, PC adjustment and 1-byte insns
TL;DR - if we step an instruction that is as long as decr_pc_after_break (1-byte on x86) right after removing the breakpoint at PC, in non-stop mode, adjust_pc_after_break adjusts the PC, but it shouldn't. In non-stop mode, when a breakpoint is removed, it is moved to the "moribund locations" list. This is because other threads that are running may have tripped on that breakpoint as well, and we haven't heard about it. When a trap is reported, we check if perhaps it was such a deleted breakpoint that caused the trap. If so, we also need to adjust the PC (decr_pc_after_break). Now, say that, on x86: - a breakpoint was placed at an address where we have an instruction of the same length as decr_pc_after_break on this arch (1 on x86). - the breakpoint is removed, and thus put on the moribund locations list. - the thread is single-stepped. As there's no breakpoint inserted at PC anymore, the single-step actually executes the 1-byte instruction normally. GDB should _not_ adjust the PC for the resulting SIGTRAP. But, adjust_pc_after_break confuses the step SIGTRAP reported for this single-step as being a SIGTRAP for the moribund location of the breakpoint that used to be at the previous PC, and so infrun applies the decr_pc_after_break adjustment incorrectly. The confusion comes from the special case mentioned in the comment: static void adjust_pc_after_break (struct execution_control_state *ecs) { ... As a special case, we could have hardware single-stepped a software breakpoint. In this case (prev_pc == breakpoint_pc), we also need to back up to the breakpoint address. */ if (thread_has_single_step_breakpoints_set (ecs->event_thread) || !ptid_equal (ecs->ptid, inferior_ptid) || !currently_stepping (ecs->event_thread) || (ecs->event_thread->stepped_breakpoint && ecs->event_thread->prev_pc == breakpoint_pc)) regcache_write_pc (regcache, breakpoint_pc); The condition that incorrectly triggers is the "ecs->event_thread->prev_pc == breakpoint_pc" one. Afterwards, the next resume resume re-executes an instruction that had already executed, which if you're lucky, results in the inferior crashing. If you're unlucky, you'll get silent bad behavior... The fix is to remember that we stepped a breakpoint. Turns out the only case we step a breakpoint instruction today isn't covered by the testsuite. It's the case of a 'handle nostop" signal arriving while a step is in progress _and_ we have a software watchpoint, which forces always single-stepping. This commit extends sigstep.exp to cover that, and adds a new test for the adjust_pc_after_break issue.

remote: get rid of all the T packets when syncing the thread list
This commit avoids the prune_threads call in the remote target's target_update_thread_list's implementation, eliminating all the "thread alive" RSP traffic (one packet per thread) whenever we fetch the thread list. IOW, this: Sending packet: $Tp2141.2150#82...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $Tp2141.214f#b7...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $Tp2141.2141#82...Packet received: OK ... more T packets; it's one per previously known live thread ...

Push pruning old threads down to the target
When GDB wants to sync the thread list with the target's (e.g., due to "info threads"), it calls update_thread_list: update_thread_list (void) { prune_threads (); target_find_new_threads (); update_threads_executing (); } And then prune_threads does: prune_threads (void) { struct thread_info *tp, *next; for (tp = thread_list; tp; tp = next) { next = tp->next; if (!thread_alive (tp)) delete_thread (tp->ptid); } } Calling thread_live on each thread one by one is expensive. E.g., on Linux, it ends up doing kill(SIG0) once for each thread. Not a big deal, but still a bunch of syscalls... With the remote target, it's cumbersome. That thread_alive call ends up generating one T packet per thread: Sending packet: $Tp2141.2150#82...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $Tp2141.214f#b7...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $Tp2141.2141#82...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $qXfer:threads:read::0,fff#03...Packet received: l<threads>\n<thread id="p2141.2141" core="2"/>\n<thread id="p2141.214f" core="1"/>\n<thread id="p2141.2150" core="2"/>\n</threads>\n That seems a bit silly when target_find_new_threads method implementations will always fetch the whole current set of target threads, and then add those that are not in GDB's thread list, to GDB's thread list. This patch thus pushes down the responsibility of pruning dead threads to the target_find_new_threads method instead, so a target may implement pruning dead threads however it wants.

Rewrite non-continuable watchpoints handling
When GDB finds out the target triggered a watchpoint, and the target has non-continuable watchpoints, GDB sets things up to step past the instruction that triggered the watchpoint. This is just like stepping past a breakpoint, but goes through a different mechanism - it resumes only the thread that needs to step past the watchpoint, but also switches a "infwait state" global, that has the effect that the next target_wait only wait for events only from that thread. This forcing of a ptid to pass to target_wait obviously becomes a bottleneck if we ever support stepping past different watchpoints simultaneously (in separate processes). It's also unnecessary -- the target should only return events for threads that have been resumed; if no other thread than the one we're stepping past the watchpoint has been resumed, then those other threads should not report events. If we couldn't assume that, then stepping past regular breakpoints would be broken for not likewise forcing a similar infwait_state. So this patch eliminates infwait_state, and instead teaches keep_going to mark step_over_info in a way that has the breakpoints module skip inserting watchpoints (because we're stepping past one), like it skips breakpoints when we're stepping past one.

Reduce Hg packet (select remote general thread) bouncing
A patch I wrote made GDB pull the thread list sooner when debugging with target remote, and I noticed an intended consequence. GDB started bouncing around the currently selected remote/general thread more frequently. E.g.: Sending packet: $qTMinFTPILen#3b...Packet received: 5 +Sending packet: $Hgp726d.726d#53...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $m400680,40#2f...Packet received: 85c0741455bff00d60004889e5ffd05de97bffffff0f1f00e973ffffff0f1f00554889e5c745fc00000000c745fc01000000e900000000c745fc02000000b800 +Sending packet: $Hgp726d.7278#28...Packet received: OK Sending packet: $m4006b2,1#28...Packet received: e9 Fast tracepoint 2 at 0x4006b2: file gdb/testsuite/gdb.trace/range-stepping.c, line 53.

(gdb) FAIL: gdb.trace/range-stepping.exp: ftrace: tstart remote_trace_start should probably start by making sure the remote current thread matches inferior_ptid (calling set_general_thread), but still, reducing unnecessary bouncing is a good idea. It happens because the memory/symbol/breakpoint routines use switch_to_program_space_and_thread to do something in the right context and then revert back to the previously current thread. The fix is to simply make any_thread_of_process, find_inferior_for_program_space, etc. give preference to the current thread/inferior it if matches. gdb/ 2014-10-02 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdbthread.h (any_thread_of_process, any_live_thread_of_process): Adjust comments. * inferior.c (find_inferior_for_program_space): Give preference to the current inferior. * inferior.h (find_inferior_for_program_space): Update comment. * progspace.c (switch_to_program_space_and_thread): Prefer the current inferior if it's bound to the program space requested.

Always pass signals to the right thread
Currently, GDB can pass a signal to the wrong thread in several
different but related scenarios.
E.g., if thread 1 stops for signal SIGFOO, the user switches to thread
2, and then issues "continue", SIGFOO is actually delivered to thread
2, not thread 1. This obviously messes up programs that use
pthread_kill to send signals to specific threads.
This has been a known issue for a long while. Back in 2008 when I
made stop_signal be per-thread (

Fix next over threaded execl with "set scheduler-locking step".
Running gdb.threads/thread-execl.exp with scheduler-locking set to "step" reveals a problem: (gdb) next^M [Thread 0x7ffff7fda700 (LWP 27168) exited]^M [New LWP 27168]^M [Thread 0x7ffff74ee700 (LWP 27174) exited]^M process 27168 is executing new program: /home/jkratoch/redhat/gdb-clean/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/thread-execl^M [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]^M Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".^M infrun.c:5225: internal-error: switch_back_to_stepped_thread: Assertion `!schedlock_applies (1)' failed.^M A problem internal to GDB has been detected,^M further debugging may prove unreliable.^M Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.threads/thread-execl.exp: schedlock step: get to main in new image (GDB internal error) The assertion is correct. The issue is that GDB is mistakenly trying to switch back to an exited thread, that was previously stepping when it exited. This is exactly the sort of thing the test wants to make sure doesn't happen: # Now set a breakpoint at `main', and step over the execl call. The # breakpoint at main should be reached. GDB should not try to revert # back to the old thread from the old image and resume stepping it We don't see this bug with schedlock off only because a different sequence of events makes GDB manage to delete the thread instead of marking it exited. This particular internal error can be fixed by making the loop over all threads in switch_back_to_stepped_thread skip exited threads. But, looking over other ALL_THREADS users, all either can or should be skipping exited threads too. So for simplicity, this patch replaces ALL_THREADS with a new macro that skips exited threads itself, and updates everything to use it.

PR gdb/13860: don't lose '-interpreter-exec console EXECUTION_COMMAND''s output in async mode.
The other part of PR gdb/13860 is about console execution commands in MI getting their output half lost. E.g., take the finish command, executed on a frontend's GDB console: sync: finish &"finish\n" ~"Run till exit from #0 usleep (useconds=10) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/usleep.c:27\n" ^running *running,thread-id="1" (gdb) ~"0x00000000004004d7 in foo () at stepinf.c:6\n" ~"6\t usleep (10);\n" ~"Value returned is $1 = 0\n" *stopped,reason="function-finished",frame={addr="0x00000000004004d7",func="foo",args=[],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="6"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="1" async: finish &"finish\n" ~"Run till exit from #0 usleep (useconds=10) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/usleep.c:27\n" ^running *running,thread-id="1" (gdb) *stopped,reason="function-finished",frame={addr="0x00000000004004d7",func="foo",args=[],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="6"},gdb-result-var="$1",return-value="0",thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0" Note how all the "Value returned" etc. output is missing in async mode. The same happens with e.g., catchpoints: =breakpoint-modified,bkpt={number="1",type="catchpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",what="22016",times="1"} ~"\nCatchpoint " ~"1 (forked process 22016), 0x0000003791cbd8a6 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131\n" ~"131\t pid = ARCH_FORK ();\n" *stopped,reason="fork",disp="keep",bkptno="1",newpid="22016",frame={addr="0x0000003791cbd8a6",func="__libc_fork",args=[],file="../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c",fullname="/usr/src/debug/glibc-2.14-394-g8f3b1ff/nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c",line="131"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0" where all those ~ lines are missing in async mode, or just the "step" current line indication: s &"s\n" ^running *running,thread-id="all" (gdb) ~"13\t foo ();\n" *stopped,frame={addr="0x00000000004004ef",func="main",args=[{name="argc",value="1"},{name="argv",value="0x7fffffffdd78"}],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="13"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="3" (gdb) Or in the case of the PRs example, the "Stopped due to shared library event" note: start &"start\n" ~"Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x400608: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c, line 21.\n" =breakpoint-created,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="del",enabled="y",addr="0x0000000000400608",func="main",file="../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c",line="21",times="0",original-location="main"} ~"Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main \n" =thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="21990" =thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1" ^running *running,thread-id="all" (gdb) =library-loaded,id="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",target-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",host-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",symbols-loaded="0",thread-group="i1" ~"Stopped due to shared library event (no libraries added or removed)\n" *stopped,reason="solib-event",thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="3" (gdb) IMO, if you're typing execution commands in a frontend's console, you expect to see their output. Indeed it's what you get in sync mode. I think async mode should do the same. Deciding what to mirror to the console wrt to breakpoints and random stops gets messy real fast. E.g., say "s" trips on a breakpoint. We'd clearly want to mirror the event to the console in this case. But what about more complicated cases like "s&; thread n; s&", and one of those steps spawning a new thread, and that thread hitting a breakpoint? It's impossible in general to track whether the thread had any relation to the commands that had been executed. So I think we should just simplify and always mirror breakpoints and random events to the console. Notes: - mi->out is the same as gdb_stdout when MI is the current interpreter. I think that referring to that directly is cleaner. An earlier revision of this patch made the changes that are now done in mi_on_normal_stop directly in infrun.c:normal_stop, and so not having an obvious place to put the new uiout by then, and not wanting to abuse CLI's uiout, I made a temporary uiout when necessary. - Hopefuly the rest of the patch is more or less obvious given the comments added.

range stepping: gdb
This patch teaches GDB to take advantage of target-assisted range stepping. It adds a new 'r ADDR1,ADDR2' action to vCont (vCont;r), meaning, "step once, and keep stepping as long as the thread is in the [ADDR1,ADDR2) range". Rationale: When user issues the "step" command on the following line of source, a = b + c + d * e - a; GDB single-steps every single instruction until the program reaches a new different line. E.g., on x86_64, that line compiles to: 0x08048434 <+65>: mov 0x1c(%esp),%eax 0x08048438 <+69>: mov 0x30(%esp),%edx 0x0804843c <+73>: add %eax,%edx 0x0804843e <+75>: mov 0x18(%esp),%eax 0x08048442 <+79>: imul 0x2c(%esp),%eax 0x08048447 <+84>: add %edx,%eax 0x08048449 <+86>: sub 0x34(%esp),%eax 0x0804844d <+90>: mov %eax,0x34(%esp) 0x08048451 <+94>: mov 0x1c(%esp),%eax and the following is the RSP traffic between GDB and GDBserver: --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:3c840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:1; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:3e840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:2; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:42840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:2; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:47840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:0; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:49840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:0; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:4d840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:0; --> vCont;s:p2e13.2e13;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:51840408;thread:p2e13.2e13;core:0; IOW, a lot of roundtrips between GDB and GDBserver. If we add a new command to the RSP, meaning "keep stepping and don't report a stop until the program goes out of the [0x08048434, 0x08048451) address range", then the RSP traffic can be reduced down to: --> vCont;r8048434,8048451:p2db0.2db0;c <-- T0505:68efffbf;04:30efffbf;08:51840408;thread:p2db0.2db0;core:1; As number of packets is reduced dramatically, the performance of stepping source lines is much improved. In case something is wrong with range stepping on the stub side, the debug info or even gdb, this adds a "set/show range-stepping" command to be able to turn range stepping off. gdb/ 2013-05-23 Yao Qi <yao@codesourcery.com> Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdbthread.h (struct thread_control_state) <may_range_step>: New field. * infcmd.c (step_once, until_next_command): Enable range stepping. * infrun.c (displaced_step_prepare): Disable range stepping.
