Subject: [RFC][PATCH 4/5] [PR gdb/33469] mi-interp: on_param_changed: pass async = true to redirect()
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2025 19:18:19 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250922231820.2667505-5-malsyned@malsyned.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250922231820.2667505-1-malsyned@malsyned.net>
When frame filters are enabled and a stack unwinder does something to
cause an async record to be emitted, -stack-list-frames output is
incorrect. A comma is missing from the first async record, and a
spurious comma is inserted before the first frame= of the frame list.
This happens because async record emitters like
mi_interp::on_param_changed() are written as though calling
mi_out::do_redirect() ensures that a comma will be emitted by the next
following mi_ui_out::field_string() call. It's not guaranteed, though.
It usually works out by coincidence because the emitter methods are
called when no other output record is mid-creation.
Pass async = true to the ui_out_redirect_pop constructor to back up and
reset ui_out state related to list generation.
RFC: This version of this patch only changes
mi_interp::on_param_changed(), because that's the async record my code
was emitting when I found this bug and that I have good test cases for.
I'm interested in revving this patch set to change other async record
emitters in mi-interp.c based on comments on this version.
