This series introduces a refactor and modernization to the record-full
history, moving it form a manually managed doubly-linked list into an
std::deque, which can make better use of caching and might make
execution faster.
The main driving force behind this change is the plan to implement
support for multithreaded inferiors, since each instruction will need to
know the thread that executed it, and it'll be much easier if there is a
more consistent spot to find all this information.
Guinevere Larsen (6):
gdb/record: Refactor record history
gdb/record: remove record_full_insn_num
gdb/record: c++ify internal structures of record-full.c
gdb/record: make record_full_history more c++-like
gdb/record: extract the PC to record_full_instruction
gdb/record: Define new version of the record-save section

Rather than using a linked list where multiple entries can describe a single instruction, the history will now be stored in an std::deque, each instruction being one entry in the deque. The choice was initially to use an std::vector, but it would become unwieldy because it needs all the memory to be consecutive, which is hard for 200 thousand entries. Deque was picked because it was a nice midpoint between vector (maximum cache cohesion) and linked list (maximum ease of finding space to store more). Each instruction in memory will be now one record_full_instruction entry, which for this commit just contains a vector of record_full_entry for the effects of the instruction, and the data that was stored in the record_full_end entry (that is, the instruction number and the signal, if any). This change introduced a minimal performance improvement (what's important is that it isn't a degradation) and a reduction in the total memory footprint of roughly 20% if the entire history is used. --- gdb/aarch64-tdep.c | 2 - gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c | 3 - gdb/arm-tdep.c | 2 - gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c | 3 - gdb/i386-tdep.c | 4 - gdb/loongarch-tdep.c | 2 - gdb/moxie-tdep.c | 2 - gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c | 3 - gdb/record-full.c | 1180 ++++++++++++++++------------------------ gdb/record-full.h | 1 - gdb/riscv-tdep.c | 3 - gdb/rs6000-tdep.c | 4 - gdb/s390-linux-tdep.c | 3 - gdb/s390-tdep.c | 2 - 14 files changed, 476 insertions(+), 738 deletions(-) diff --git a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c index 4befaa2720d..a532992b1d8 100644 --- a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c @@ -6210,8 +6210,6 @@ aarch64_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct regcache *regcache, aarch64_record.aarch64_mems[rec_no].len)) ret = -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - ret = -1; } deallocate_reg_mem (&aarch64_record); diff --git a/gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c b/gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c index a5ac26654cf..9b23db72bbe 100644 --- a/gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c @@ -1591,9 +1591,6 @@ amd64_linux_record_signal (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, + AMD64_LINUX_frame_size)) return -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; - return 0; } diff --git a/gdb/arm-tdep.c b/gdb/arm-tdep.c index 08cce9dbad8..1ce0927f26b 100644 --- a/gdb/arm-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/arm-tdep.c @@ -14911,8 +14911,6 @@ arm_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct regcache *regcache, } } - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - ret = -1; } diff --git a/gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c b/gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c index 23aeccac9fc..4f33766fcdd 100644 --- a/gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c @@ -949,9 +949,6 @@ i386_linux_record_signal (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, I386_LINUX_xstate + I386_LINUX_frame_size)) return -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; - return 0; } \f diff --git a/gdb/i386-tdep.c b/gdb/i386-tdep.c index fa935b5fcdb..fee36b46a73 100644 --- a/gdb/i386-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/i386-tdep.c @@ -5201,8 +5201,6 @@ i386_record_vex (struct i386_record_s *ir, uint8_t vex_w, uint8_t vex_r, } record_full_arch_list_add_reg (ir->regcache, ir->regmap[X86_RECORD_REIP_REGNUM]); - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; return 0; } @@ -8359,8 +8357,6 @@ Do you want to stop the program?"), /* In the future, maybe still need to deal with need_dasm. */ I386_RECORD_FULL_ARCH_LIST_ADD_REG (X86_RECORD_REIP_REGNUM); - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; return 0; diff --git a/gdb/loongarch-tdep.c b/gdb/loongarch-tdep.c index 225b1abb703..5ec6b2a48d0 100644 --- a/gdb/loongarch-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/loongarch-tdep.c @@ -2789,8 +2789,6 @@ loongarch_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct regcache *regcache, LOONGARCH_PC_REGNUM)) return -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; } return ret; diff --git a/gdb/moxie-tdep.c b/gdb/moxie-tdep.c index c8a04d21f59..2f8f0186488 100644 --- a/gdb/moxie-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/moxie-tdep.c @@ -1040,8 +1040,6 @@ moxie_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct regcache *regcache, if (record_full_arch_list_add_reg (regcache, MOXIE_PC_REGNUM)) return -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; return 0; } diff --git a/gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c b/gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c index 19698eaacbe..e2f53551709 100644 --- a/gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c @@ -1565,9 +1565,6 @@ ppc_linux_record_signal (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, struct regcache *regcache, if (record_full_arch_list_add_mem (sp, SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE + sizeof_rt_sigframe)) return -1; - if (record_full_arch_list_add_end ()) - return -1; - return 0; } diff --git a/gdb/record-full.c b/gdb/record-full.c index 69d2c100e57..aac69cee17e 100644 --- a/gdb/record-full.c +++ b/gdb/record-full.c @@ -72,20 +72,17 @@ #define DEFAULT_RECORD_FULL_INSN_MAX_NUM 200000 #define RECORD_FULL_IS_REPLAY \ - (record_full_list->next || ::execution_direction == EXEC_REVERSE) + ( (record_full_next_insn != record_full_list.size ()) \ + || ::execution_direction == EXEC_REVERSE) #define RECORD_FULL_FILE_MAGIC netorder32(0x20091016) /* These are the core structs of the process record functionality.

I found two items that might be worth looking at in more detail, but apart from that it’s mostly minor nits. Please find my feedback below. I don’t have much experience with the record feature, so my review is a bit slow here. To fully understand this patch, I probably need more time, but I wanted to share the comments I already have.

Deque was picked because it was a nice > midpoint between vector (maximum cache cohesion) and linked list > (maximum ease of finding space to store more). > > Each instruction in memory will be now one record_full_instruction > entry, which for this commit just contains a vector of > record_full_entry for the effects of the instruction, and the data that > was stored in the record_full_end entry (that is, the instruction number > and the signal, if any). > > This change introduced a minimal performance improvement (what's > important is that it isn't a degradation) and a reduction in the total > memory footprint of roughly 20% if the entire history is used. > --- > gdb/aarch64-tdep.c | 2 - > gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c | 3 - > gdb/arm-tdep.c | 2 - > gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c | 3 - > gdb/i386-tdep.c | 4 - > gdb/loongarch-tdep.c | 2 - > gdb/moxie-tdep.c | 2 - > gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c | 3 - > gdb/record-full.c | 1180 ++++++++++++++++------------------------ > gdb/record-full.h | 1 - > gdb/riscv-tdep.c | 3 - > gdb/rs6000-tdep.c | 4 - > gdb/s390-linux-tdep.c | 3 - > gdb/s390-tdep.c | 2 - > 14 files changed, 476 insertions(+), 738 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c > index 4befaa2720d..a532992b1d8 100644 > --- a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c > +++ b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c > @@ -6210,8 +6210,6 @@ aarch64_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, > struct regcache *regcache, > aarch64_record.aarch64_mems[rec_no].len)) > ret = -1;

Hi! Thank you for noting all the inconsistencies, I'll fix almost all of them before pushing! The one thing I don't think it's a good idea is to make the change from record_full_list -> record_full_log in this commit... mostly because it will introduce untold amounts of rebase conflicts. I'll introduce a following commit to this series that will make that renaming, though :) -- Cheers, Guinevere Larsen It/she >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Guinevere Larsen <guinevere@redhat.com> >> Sent: Donnerstag, 23.

Deque was picked because it was a nice >> midpoint between vector (maximum cache cohesion) and linked list >> (maximum ease of finding space to store more). >> >> Each instruction in memory will be now one record_full_instruction >> entry, which for this commit just contains a vector of >> record_full_entry for the effects of the instruction, and the data that >> was stored in the record_full_end entry (that is, the instruction number >> and the signal, if any). >> >> This change introduced a minimal performance improvement (what's >> important is that it isn't a degradation) and a reduction in the total >> memory footprint of roughly 20% if the entire history is used. >> --- >> gdb/aarch64-tdep.c | 2 - >> gdb/amd64-linux-tdep.c | 3 - >> gdb/arm-tdep.c | 2 - >> gdb/i386-linux-tdep.c | 3 - >> gdb/i386-tdep.c | 4 - >> gdb/loongarch-tdep.c | 2 - >> gdb/moxie-tdep.c | 2 - >> gdb/ppc-linux-tdep.c | 3 - >> gdb/record-full.c | 1180 ++++++++++++++++------------------------ >> gdb/record-full.h | 1 - >> gdb/riscv-tdep.c | 3 - >> gdb/rs6000-tdep.c | 4 - >> gdb/s390-linux-tdep.c | 3 - >> gdb/s390-tdep.c | 2 - >> 14 files changed, 476 insertions(+), 738 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c >> index 4befaa2720d..a532992b1d8 100644 >> --- a/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c >> +++ b/gdb/aarch64-tdep.c >> @@ -6210,8 +6210,6 @@ aarch64_process_record (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, >> struct regcache *regcache, >> aarch64_record.aarch64_mems[rec_no].len)) >> ret = -1;

IIUC you'll only have a shallow copy. Should we use a std::move instead here? I further wonder if this problem might be related to the double free issues you describe in patch #3. Would you mind checking? And if you add the destructor, I think it would make sense to add a copy constructor etc., too: https://en.cppreference.com/cpp/language/rule_of_three > >> + record_full_next_insn++; > >> } > >> > >> /* Delete the first instruction from the beginning of the log, to make > >> @@ -550,52 +504,22 @@ record_full_list_release_following (struct > >> record_full_entry *rec) > >> static void > >> record_full_list_release_first (void) > >> { > >> - struct record_full_entry *tmp; > >> - > >> - if (!record_full_first.next) > >> + if (record_full_list.empty ()) > >> return; > >> > >> - /* Loop until a record_full_end. */ > >> - while (1) > >> - { > >> - /* Cut record_full_first.next out of the linked list. */ > >> - tmp = record_full_first.next; > >> - record_full_first.next = tmp->next; > >> - tmp->next->prev = &record_full_first; > >> - > >> - /* tmp is now isolated, and can be deleted. */ > >> - if (record_full_entry_release (tmp) == record_full_end) > >> - break; /* End loop at first record_full_end. */ > >> + for (auto &entry : record_full_list[0].effects) > >> + record_full_entry_cleanup (entry); > >> > >> - if (!record_full_first.next) > >> - { > >> - gdb_assert (record_full_insn_num == 1); > >> - break; /* End loop when list is empty. */ > >> - } > >> - } > >> + record_full_list.pop_front (); > >> + --record_full_next_insn; > >> } > >> > >> /* Add a struct record_full_entry to record_full_arch_list. */ > >> > >> static void > >> -record_full_arch_list_add (struct record_full_entry *rec) > >> +record_full_arch_list_add (struct record_full_entry &rec) > >> { > >> - if (record_debug > 1) > >> - gdb_printf (gdb_stdlog, > >> - "Process record: record_full_arch_list_add %s.\n", > >> - host_address_to_string (rec)); > >> - > >> - if (record_full_arch_list_tail) > >> - { > >> - record_full_arch_list_tail->next = rec; > >> - rec->prev = record_full_arch_list_tail; > >> - record_full_arch_list_tail = rec; > >> - } > >> - else > >> - { > >> - record_full_arch_list_head = rec; > >> - record_full_arch_list_tail = rec; > >> - } > >> + record_full_incomplete_instruction.effects.push_back (rec); > >> } > >> > >> /* Return the value storage location of a record entry. */ > >> @@ -613,7 +537,6 @@ record_full_get_loc (struct record_full_entry *rec) > >> return rec->u.reg.u.ptr; > >> else > >> return rec->u.reg.u.buf; > >> - case record_full_end: > >> default: > >> gdb_assert_not_reached ("unexpected record_full_entry type"); > >> return NULL; > >> @@ -625,7 +548,7 @@ record_full_get_loc (struct record_full_entry *rec) > >> int > >> record_full_arch_list_add_reg (struct regcache *regcache, int regnum) > >> { > >> - struct record_full_entry *rec; > >> + struct record_full_entry rec; > > I think we can omit the struct keyword here (there are some more > occurrences in this patch). > > > >> if (record_debug > 1) > >> gdb_printf (gdb_stdlog, > >> @@ -633,9 +556,9 @@ record_full_arch_list_add_reg (struct regcache > >> *regcache, int regnum) > >> "record list.\n", > >> regnum); > >> > >> - rec = record_full_reg_alloc (regcache, regnum); > >> + rec = record_full_reg_init (regcache, regnum); > >> > >> - regcache->cooked_read (regnum, record_full_get_loc (rec)); > >> + regcache->cooked_read (regnum, record_full_get_loc (&rec)); > >> > >> record_full_arch_list_add (rec); > >> > >> @@ -648,7 +571,7 @@ record_full_arch_list_add_reg (struct regcache > >> *regcache, int regnum) > >> int > >> record_full_arch_list_add_mem (CORE_ADDR addr, int len) > >> { > >> - struct record_full_entry *rec; > >> + struct record_full_entry rec; > >> > >> if (record_debug > 1) > >> gdb_printf (gdb_stdlog, > >> @@ -659,12 +582,12 @@ record_full_arch_list_add_mem (CORE_ADDR > addr, > >> int len) > >> if (!addr) /* FIXME: Why?

I think it might be worth checking the patch if there are more similar issues. The old patch had more guards to check this. And I noticed in some other locations you cast it: if (sigval != GDB_SIGNAL_0) record_full_incomplete_instruction.sigval = (gdb_signal) sigval; Not sure if this is necessary or not, but it might be for checking and making it consistent? And is it intended that now we don't clear sigval anymore? Shouldn't we set it to std::nullopt in case signal == GDB_SIGNAL_0, to match the original behaviour? > >> if (signal == GDB_SIGNAL_0 > >> || !gdbarch_process_record_signal_p (gdbarch)) > >> @@ -778,13 +675,11 @@ record_full_message (struct regcache > *regcache, > >> enum gdb_signal signal) > >> } > >> catch (const gdb_exception &ex) > >> { > >> - record_full_list_release (record_full_arch_list_tail);

The plan was that record_full_save_instruction clears the incomplete instruction, but I apparently forgot that. With that, it should always be clear so we won't need to explicitly set it to nullopt.

Checkpoints fork the inferior and stop the fork immediately, allowing you to go back to that one point in time, but not executing backwards or anything, just changing forks and letting you see what things were like back then (that's why they won't work with multi-threaded programs). entirely unrelated to reverse debugging Bookmarks let you mark one instruction in the history and easily go back to it using the reverse mechanism... at least that's what I've been able to get from the code, this predates me and I have no idea how it is actually used....

That is because a couple of commands would really benefit from it being easy to find the PC (especially ones from record-btrace that's haven't been implemented to record-full yet, such as the ones in PR record/18059), while also possibly allowing for one fewer resizing of the effect vector (and saving an entire byte in the process). This commit also refactored record_full_read_entry_from_bfd and record_full_write_entry_to_bfd, to make them methods of record_full_reg_entry and record_full_mem_entry, and also creates similar methods for record_full_entry and record_full_instruction.
