[RFC 0/2] Two new MI notifications

[Yao Qi]

Hi,
This patch series is about adding two new MI notifications,
memory-changed notification and tracepoint-downloaded notification.
They are quite independent of each other.

[PATCH 1/2] new memory-changed MI notification.

[Yao Qi]

Hi,
There are usually two views in MI front-end, 'memory view' and 'code
view', which displays the contents of 'data' and 'code'.  If user
modified memory in console, both views should be updated to show the
latest contents.  In order to achieve this, this patch adds a new MI
notification '=memory-changed', so that MI front-ends can refresh its
'memory view' and 'code view' once this notification arrives.

The existing observer 'memory-changed' doesn't have a parameter on
inferior, and thinks memory-change happens on 'current inferior'.  It
is better not to propagate 'current inferior' everywhere, so this
patch adds a parameter 'inferior' in observer 'memory-changed'.

Memory can be modified in two ways through MI, 'var-assign' and
'data-write-memory[-btes]', so we add two flags for suppression
'var_assign' and 'data_write_memory'.

gdb:

2012-09-27  Yao Qi  <yao@codesourcery.com>

	* breakpoint.c (invalidate_bp_value_on_memory_change): Add one
	more parameter 'inferior'.
	* corefile.c (write_memory_with_notification): Caller update.

	* mi/mi-cmds.c (mi_cmd mi_cmds): Update for "var-assign",
	"data-write-memory", and "data-write-memory-bytes.
	* mi/mi-interp.c: Include objfiles.h.
	(mi_interpreter_init): Call observer_attach_memory_changed.
	(mi_memory_changed): New.
	* mi/mi-main.h (struct mi_suppress_notification) <var_assign>:
	<data_write_memory>: New fields.

	* NEWS: Mention new MI notification "memory-changed".

gdb/doc:

2012-09-27  Yao Qi  <yao@codesourcery.com>

	* observer.texi (GDB Observers): Update observer
	'memory_changed'.

	* gdb.texinfo (GDB/MI Async Records): Document for
	"memory-changed" notification.

gdb/testsuite:

2012-09-27  Yao Qi  <yao@codesourcery.com>

	* gdb.mi/mi-memory-changed.exp: New.

I think the quotes should be deleted; I see no sign of them in the

If @var{type} can only be "code", then I suggest to say

  ...[,type=code]

explicitly.

Btw, why "code"?  If this is the name of the section, it should be
".text", not code.

@var{type} can only "code" nowadays, but I am wondering we may have 
other types, such as "data", in the future.  I don't want to give the 
consumer of this notification an impression that "type=code" is 
hard-coded into notification.  If we don't have to worry about it at 
all, "[,type=code]" is fine to me.

 From the consumer of this notification's point of view, 'type' is more 
useful than 'name', because the consumer may don't know what ".text" 
section is, or on some ports, text section is not named as ".text", such 
as section ".text_vle" for VLE.

We don't have to worry about this at this time.  The explanatory text
says that type can only be "code" anyway, and will have to be revised
when other types can be emitted.  So not saying 'code" saves us
nothing.

In that case, saying that this identifies a section is inaccurate.

But if we are going to put "code" explicitly in the notification line,
then this is perhaps a moot point.  The explanatory text should say
something like

  The optional @code{type="code"} part is reported if the memory
  written to holds executable code.

Is there a particular reason to have two flags?
It seems one would do.

Usually I think it would be preferable to have a flag correspond to a
notification and not a command; but this would not work so well if a
command needed to suppress two different messages.  (Though if that
happens then maybe we should have a slightly different approach based on
bitmasks.)

BTW, paddress would avoid the leading 0s on 64-bit host, 32-bit target.

The "address where tracepoint was downloaded" makes me think this
returns the address in gdbserver's memory that holds the tracepoint
object.  But it's not, it's the tracepoint's address, as in the
address the tracepoint is set at in the inferior.

Took me a second to recall, but the reason the address is
necessary is multi-location tracepoints -- a tracepoint on the
target is identified by the { number, address } tuple.  We don't
send over the location's sub number (like 1.1, 1.2, etc.).

Should we mention this somewhere (other than at the tracepoint
packets description), so frontend people don't wonder whether they
can ignore the address field, and why aren't the other fields of
the tracepoint (like spec string) included?

And I guess the related question is, are frontends interested
in { number, address }, which is target side detail, or on
{ number, location number }, which is how other breakpoints are
presented to the frontend?  I would think the latter?

Flag 'var_assign' would suppress two notifications, 'memory-changed' and 
'register-changed' (to be posted later), because I feel hard to 
differentiate 'memory write' and 'register write' inside 
mi_cmd_var_assign and its callees.

Presently, looks only "-var-assign' may trigger two notifications, so I 
am not sure we have to switch to the new approach based on bitmask.

 From the frontend's point of view, {number, location number} is better, 
and the schema "number.location_number" has been used in 
"=breakpoint-modified" notification.  However, if we want to use 
{number, location number} here, we have to guarantee that the location 
number is an attribute of bp_location, because:

Nowadays, location number is generated by incrementing a counter during 
iterating a list of bp_location of breakpoint (in 
breakpoint.c:print_one_breakpoint), so I am wondering that the 
bp_location object may have the different number, if the list of 
bp_locations of a breakpoint is removed due to some reasons.  Looks 
bp_location list of breakpoint is *not* removed except in 
breakpoint_program_space_exit, after examine the source code.

For example,

Originally we have a tracepoint of 3 locations,

4       tracepoint     keep y   <MULTIPLE>
         collect $eip^M
4.1                         y     0x0804859c in func4 inf 1
4.2                         y     0xb7ffc480 in func4 inf 2
4.3                         y     0xb7ffc488 in func4 inf 1

due to some reason, bp_location on address 0xb7ffc480 is removed (for 
example, inferior 2 is removed), and original bp_location 4.3 becomes 4.2.

In short, if we can make location number persistent (unchanged for a 
given bp_location object), then {number, location number} is fine, 
otherwise, I'd prefer {number, address}.

I agree with you that one flag should correspond to a notification.  I

On the other hand, if 'adding bp_location number of a breakpoint' can be 
justified, I'd like to do that, and use bp_location number instead of 
address here.  However, I am not sure whether we need add bp_location 
number.  It is slightly overkill to do so.  Any thoughts?

Hi.

For my own education, is this suppression just an optimization, or is there a correctness issue here?
I can imagine that it's an optimization, why notify the frontend something changed when it's the frontend that requested the change.
But there is *zero* documentation in mi-main.h on *why* struct mi_suppress_notification exists, so it's hard to tell. :-(

Hi.
It would be useful if the reason why this notification exists was specified in the code.
E.g, "This notification exists because frontends ... [fill in the blank]."

I don't know about this case in particular, but in many cases in MI, a
command will have a result record that encodes the exact same data that
an async response would give.  On the other hand, if a CLI command is
invoked, then there is no relevant response record, and so the async
response must be generated.

I think it is an optimization.  Offhand I can't think of a correctness
issue here, but I guess I wouldn't be surprised if there is one lurking
for some command or another.

The notifications are designed to tell frontend something about the 
changes of GDB states which frontend is not aware of.  If the changes 
are requested from fronend, so we think frontend should be aware of 
these changes, and then notifications are not necessary to be sent.

It needs some comments here.  I'll document it shortly.

Hi Pedro,

I sent two notes on this, but didn't hear back.  Not sure you still
insist on "{number, loc_number}" pair.

Well, I am not sure such explanation should go into manual.  It is
related to the design and internals, and it may be confusing to users
to explain it in manual.  IMO, manual is about "what" instead of "why".

More comments are added to function mi_tracepoint_downloaded to address

Either "downloads are" or "download is".  I prefer the former.

However, if we want to use {number, location number} here, we have to guarantee that the location number is an attribute of bp_location, because:

This is not a particular issue of tracepoint locations, so, if it was a problem, it
would be a problem for the existing notifications and MI commands as well.

IOW, this would need to be fixed for all those other cases that expose location
numbers, not just come up with an ad hoc solution.

IOW, there's no good justification for deviating this notification from
existing practice.

(BTW, I tried it and looks to be broken - the location of the removed
inferior is left behind, but with "inf 2" removed...)

Locations also come and go with shared libraries being loaded and unloaded,
along with other similar cases of loading and unloading symbols from GDB.

In the case above, the frontend gets notified of the inferior exiting.  It
feels like it should be notified that the breakpoint has been modified, but
that doesn't appear to trigger presently.

> In short, if we can make location number persistent (unchanged for a given bp_location object), then {number, location number} is fine, otherwise, I'd prefer {number, address}.

{number, address} may looks stabler, but not even that is completely stable.
Change the program's code a little, recompile, reload symbols, and you'll see the
address change.  Whatever smarts you'd want the frontend to have to track
locations, GDB could do instead, once for all frontends, and better, because
it may use properties other than the address to decided whether a new instance
of a location is logically the same as the old one (think of stap probes or static
tracepoints, where the address is really a very low target side detail; or just
consider line number instead of address).  I think all this goes hand in hand with
redesigning how GDB handles breakpoint re-setting (or rather, get rid of re-setting as is),
which will make this whole stabler locations issue better.  Keith will be going to
work on that very soon, IIUC.

Yes, indeed.  I'll probably upgrade that "useful" to "required".  :-)
It is not clear for example, why would the frontend
care about a particular tracepoint having been downloaded.  I can see
it wanting to know when a trace run has started from the CLI, for instance,
which already implies that tracepoints have been downloaded.

In older GDB versions, when creating a tracepoint during a trace run,
that tracepoint would not be pushed to the target until the next
trace run.  The idea is that a frontend could indicate which tracespoints
were active on the target and which were not.

Now that GDB pushes new tracepoints to the target immediately, that
use-case may not apply, but I wonder if there are other situations
where some tracepoints will be on the target and other will not?

Yes, the pending tracepoints won't be downloaded after tracing is 
started until they are resolved.  The notification is required for this 
case.

What do you mean by "existing practice"?  Is {number, location number}

IIUC, "locations" here mean location address instead of location number.

FAOD, we should continue to use {number, location number}, and it 
requires improvement of breakpoint re-setting, correct?

Almost.  AFAICS, the existing practice is "bp_number.loc_number" in MI, just like in the CLI.

&"b main\n"
~"Breakpoint 8 at 0x457aab: main. (2 locations)\n"
=breakpoint-created,bkpt={number="8",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",addr="<MULTIPLE>",times="0",original-location="main"},{number="8.1",enabled="y",addr="0x0000000000457aab",func="main",file="../../src/gdb/gdb.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/gdb.c",line="29"},{number="8.2",enabled="y",addr="0x0000000000457aab",func="main",file="../../src/gdb/gdb.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/gdb.c",line="29"}
^done

Note 'number="8.1"'.

Or,

(gdb)
-break-disable 9.1
^done
(gdb)
info breakpoint
&"info breakpoint\n"
~"Num     Type           Disp Enb Address            What\n"
~"9       tracepoint     keep y   <MULTIPLE>         \n"
~"9.1                         n     0x0000000000457aab in main at ../../src/gdb/gdb.c:29 inf 1\n"
~"9.2                         y     0x0000000000457aab in main at ../../src/gdb/gdb.c:29 inf 2\n"

Looks like a =breakpoint-modified notification is missing for this, BTW:

disable 8.1
&"disable 8.1\n"
^done
(gdb)

While this emitted the notification:

disable 8
&"disable 8\n"
=breakpoint-modified,bkpt={number="8",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",enabled="n",addr="<MULTIPLE>",times="0",original-location="main"},{number="8.1",enabled="n",addr="0x0000000000457aab",func="main",file="../../src/gdb/gdb.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/gdb.c",line="29"},{number="8.2",enabled="y",addr="0x0000000000457aab",func="main",file="../../src/gdb/gdb.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/gdb.c",line="29"}

I mean location as the abstract location a bp_location represents.  By track, I mean,
recognize that a given location is the same as another location (remember that
catchpoints often don't even have a concept of address!).

Yes.  Though AFAICS, current notifications and commands use 'number="N.M"', not '{number, location number}'.

And FAOD, The "yes" was for the first question.  I'm not sure what you meant by
"it", but the notification should not be blocked by that.

Let me grok the responses on the usefulness of the notification though (and
continue the discussion there, if necessary).

What about the case of connecting to a target that is tracing, after
disconnected tracing?  Do we already tell the frontend somehow which
tracepoints are active on the target?  Should tracepoints have an
"installed on target" field?

Ok.  If the answer to my question above is yes, it might be this
notification ends up unnecessary in favor of a generic
=breakpoint-modified.

Pedro, to make sure I don't misread your comments, I'd like to ask are 
you suggesting that we can add an 'installed on target' field for 
tracepoint in '=breakpoint-modified' notification?

Well, sort of, but by side effect, since =breakpoint-modified includes all
the fields of a breakpoint/tracepoint.

Say you've set up a disconnected tracing session, and then disconnect.
Later, you start a new clean gdb session, create a new tracepoint (never
downloaded/installed on the target), and reconnect.  At this point, GDB will fetch
the target's tracepoint list, and sync it with GDB's.  The frontend gets
a =breakpoint-created for each of those uploaded tracepoints, but it has
no clue why they were created / their installed status.

You end up with some tracepoints that are installed, and some that aren't
in GDB's list.  Does the frontend know this today by some means I'm missing?
If not, does fixing this mean adding an "installed" property to
breakpoints/tracepoints?  Say we added your new notification, and then fixed the
above as I'm suggesting.  At that point, this new tracepoint downloaded
notification ends up being redundant.

So I'm trying to get us to think with a broad perspective around
the "installed on target" frontend needs.

I think the frontend may be able to guess, when connecting to the
target, that any tracepoint it did not create itself must be
tracepoints already installed on target.

However, this sounds a little risky and maybe prone to race-conditions.

I think Pedro's point is very good.  It would be better to have 
GDB actually report the "installed/not installed" state when 
providing tracepoint info.  Not only will it help in the
disconnected-tracing case, but it will allow the frontend to
refresh its state.  Without it, any lost MI notification about
tracepoint download, cannot be recovered from.

IIUC, adding this entry the tracepoint info will also automatically
cause a =breakpoint-modified notif when tracepoints are downloaded
to the target.  This is something the frontend still needs, as to 
avoid forcing a refresh after any operation that could cause a
tracepoint to be installed/un-installed.

Thanks for bringing this point up!
