This series provides a Python API which can be used to find missing
objfiles when opening a core file. This is very similar in spirit to
the already existing code that provides a Python API for finding
missing debug information.
The first patch in this series cleans up the message that debuginfod
produces. This is only relevant because the cleanup changes which
filenames are passed around, these same filenames are then passed into
the new Python API.
Patch #2 is a refactoring.
Patch #3 adds the new extension language API on the GDB core side.
Patch #4 adds the Python side of the same API.
For reference, see these commits for when the missing debug files
Python API was added:
* 8f6c452b5a4 gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
* 661d98a3331 gdb: add an extension language hook for missing debug info
Thanks,
Andrew

When opening a core-file GDB is able to use debuginfod to download the
executable that matches the core-file if GDB can find a build-id for
the executable in the core-file.
In this case GDB calls debuginfod_exec_query to download the
executable and GDB prints a message like:
Downloading executable for /path/to/core-file...
which makes sense in that case.
For a long time GDB has also had the ability to download memory-mapped
files and shared libraries when opening a core-file. However, recent
commits have made these cases more likely to trigger, which is a good
thing, but the messaging from GDB in these cases is not ideal. When
downloading a memory-mapped file GDB prints:
Downloading executable for /path/to/memory-mapped-file
And for a shared library:
Downloading executable for /path/to/libfoo.so
These last two messages could, I think, be improved.
I propose making two changes. First, I suggest instead of using
/path/to/core-file in the first case, we use the name of the
executable that GDB is fetching. This makes the messaging consistent
in that we print the name of the file we're fetching rather than the
name of the file we're fetching something for.
I further propose that we replace 'executable for' with the more
generic word 'file'. The messages will then become:
Downloading file /path/to/exec-file...
Downloading file /path/to/memory-mapped-file...
Downloading file /path/to/libfoo.so...
I think these messages are clearer than what we used to have, and they
are consistent in that we name the thing being downloaded in all
cases.
There is one tiny problem. The first case relies on GDB knowing the
name of the executable it wants to download. The only place we can
currently get that from is, I think, the memory-mapped file list.
[ ASIDE: There is `bfd_core_file_failing_command` which reports the
executable and argument list from the core file, but this
information is not ideal for this task. First, the executable and
arguments are merged into a single string, and second, the string is
a relatively short, fixed length string, so the executable name is
often truncated. For these reasons I don't consider fetching the
executable name using this bfd function as a solution. ]
We do have to consider the case that the core file does not have any
mapped file information. This shouldn't ever be the case for a Linux
target, but it's worth considering.
[ ASIDE: I mention Linux specifically because this only becomes a
problem if we try to do a lookup via debuginfod, which requires that
we have build-ids available. Linux has special support for
embedding build-ids into the core file, but I'm not sure if other
kernels do this. ]
For the unlikely edge case of a core-file that has build-ids, but
doesn't have any mapped file information then I propose that we
synthesis a filename like: 'with build-id xxxxxx'. We would then see
a message like:
Downloading file with build-id xxxxxx...
Where 'xxxxxx' would be replaced by the actual build-id.
This isn't ideal, but I think is good enough, and, as I said, I think
this case is not going to be hit very often, or maybe at all.
We already had some tests that emitted two of the above messages,
which I've updated, these cover the mapped-file and shared library
case.
The message about downloading the exec for the core-file is actually
really hard to trigger now as usually the exec will also appear in the
memory-mapped file list and GDB will download the file at this stage.
Then when GDB needs the executable for loading the symbols it'll ask
debuginfod, and debuginfod will find the file in its cache, and so no
message will be printed.
If anyone has any ideas about how to trigger this case then I'm happy
to add additional tests.

In preparation for later commits in this series, rename
ext_lang_missing_debuginfo_result to ext_lang_missing_file_result.
A later commit will add additional Python APIs to handle different
types of missing files beyond just debuginfo.
This is just a rename commit, there should be no functional changes
after this commit.

Add a new ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function which is called
from find_objfile_by_build_id and gives extension languages a chance
to find missing objfiles.
This commit adds the ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function and
the extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid() hook, but does
not implement the hook for any extension languages, that will come in
the next commit.
This commit does rewrite find_objfile_by_build_id (build-id.c) to call
the new hook though. The basic steps of find_objfile_by_build_id are
now this:
1. Try to find the missing objfile using the build-id by looking in
the debug-file-directory's .build-id/ sub-directory. If we find the
file then we're done.
2. Ask debuginfod to download the missing file for us. If we
download the file successfully then we're done.
3. Ask the extension language hook to find the file for us. If the
extension language asks us to try again then we repeat step (1) only
and if we still don't have the file, we move to step (4). If the
extension language told us where the file is then we use that file
and we're done.
4. We didn't find the file. Carry on without it.
Only step (3) is new in this logic, everything else was already done.
There are no tests added here as we can't currently write an extension
language callback. The next commit will add the tests.

Implement extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid within
GDB's Python API. Doing this allows users to write Python extensions
that can help locate missing objfiles when GDB opens a core file. A
handler might perform some project- or site-specific actions to find a
missing objfile. Or might provide some project- or site-specific
advice to the user on how they can obtain the missing objfile.
The implementation is very similar to the approach taken in:
commit 8f6c452b5a4e50fbb55ff1d13328b392ad1fd416
Date: Sun Oct 15 22:48:42 2023 +0100
gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python missing debug and unwinder
commands are implemented:
info missing-objfile-handlers
enable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing objfile
handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB. When GDB
opens a core file and encounters a missing objfile each handler is
called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a minimal handler
that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_objfile
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, pspace, build_id, filename):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing objfile, and GDB should ask any other
registered handlers.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the objfile couldn't
be found. GDB will not call any other handlers, and will
continue without the objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the objfile into a location where
GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB should repeat its
normal lookup process and the objfile should now be found.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the missing
objfile. GDB will load this file.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the missing objfile, at which point GDB continues.
The implementation of this feature is mostly straight forward. I have
reworked some of the missing debug file related code so that it can be
shared with this feature. E.g. gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_files.py is
mostly content moved from gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py, but
updated to be more generic. Now gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py
and the new file gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_objfile.py both call into
the missing_files.py file.
For gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py this is even more
extreme, gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_debug.py is completely
gone now and gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py provides all
of the new commands in a generic way.
I have made one change to the existing Python API, I renamed the
attribute Progspace.missing_debug_handlers to
Progspace.missing_file_handlers. I don't see this as too
problematic. This attribute was only used to implement the missing
debug feature and was never documented beyond the fact that it
existed. There was no reason for users to be touching this attribute.

+@subsubsection Missing Objfiles In Python
+@cindex python, handle missing objfiles
+
+When @value{GDBN} opens a core file, for example with the
+@kbd{core-file} command (@pxref{core-file command}), @value{GDBN} will
+attempt to load the corresponding executable and shared libraries.
+Often these files can be found on the local machine, but sometimes
+these files cannot be found, in which case the debugging experience
+will be restricted.
+
+If @value{GDBN} fails to locate a particular file then there is an
+opportunity for a Python extension to step in. A Python extension can
+potentially locate the missing file using some platform- or
+project-specific steps, and inform @value{GDBN} of its location. Or a
+Python extension might provide some platform- or project-specific
+advice to the user about how to obtain the missing file.
+
+A missing objfile Python extension consists of a handler object which
+has the @code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method. When @value{GDBN} encounters a situation
+where a file cannot be found, but the build-id (@pxref{build ID}) for
+the missing file is known, then the @code{__call__} method is invoked
+to try and find the file. Full details of how handlers are written
+can be found below.
+
+@subheading The @code{gdb.missing_objfile} Module
+
+@value{GDBN} comes with a @code{gdb.missing_objfile} module which
+contains the following class and global function:
+
+@deftp{class} gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler
+
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler} is a base class from which user-created
+handlers can derive, though it is not required that handlers derive
+from this class, so long as any user created handler has the
+@code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method.
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__init__ (name)
+The @var{name} is a string used to reference this missing debug
+handler within some @value{GDBN} commands. Valid names consist of the
+characters @code{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}, creating a handler with an invalid
+name raises a @code{ValueError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__call__ (pspace, build_id, filename)
+
+Sub-classes must override the @code{__call__} method. The
+@var{pspace} argument will be a @code{gdb.Progspace}
+(@pxref{Progspaces In Python}), this is the program space in which
+@value{GDBN} is looking for the missing file.
+
+The @var{build_id} argument is a string containing the build-id of the
+file that is missing, this will be in the same format as returned by
+@code{Objfile.build_id} (@pxref{Objfile.build_id}).
+
+The @var{filename} argument contains the name of the file that
+@value{GDBN} is looking for. This information is provided to allow
+handlers to generate informative messages for the user. A handler is
+not required to place the missing file at this location. There might
+already be a file present at this location, but it might not match the
+required build-id, in which case @value{GDBN} will have ignored it.
+In some limited cases @value{GDBN} might not be able to establish the
+@var{filename} of the file it is searching for, in this case
+@value{GDBN} will use a string @samp{with build-id @var{build_id}} as a
+replacement.
+
+The return value from the @code{__call__} method indicates what
+@value{GDBN} should do next. The possible return values are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{None}
+
+This indicates that this handler could not locate the missing file and
+@value{GDBN} should call any other registered handlers.
+
+@item @code{True}
+
+This indicates that this handler has installed the missing file into a
+location where @value{GDBN} would normally expect to find it. The
+only location in which @value{GDBN} will look is within the
+@file{.build-id} sub-directory within the @var{debug-file-directory}
+(@pxref{debug-file-directory}).
+
+@value{GDBN} will repeat the normal lookup process, which should now
+find the previously missing file.
+
+If @value{GDBN} still doesn't find file after this second attempt,
+then the Python missing objfile handlers are not invoked a second
+time, this prevents a badly behaved handler causing @value{GDBN} to
+get stuck in a loop. @value{GDBN} will continue without the missing
+file, though this will degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item @code{False}
+
+This indicates that this handler has done everything that it intends
+to do but the missing file could not be found. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any other registered handlers to look for the missing file.
+@value{GDBN} will continue without the missing file, though this will
+degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item A string
+
+The returned string should contain a filename. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any further registered handlers, and will instead use the
+returned filename as the missing file.
+@end itemize
+
+Invoking the @code{__call__} method from this base class will raise a
+@code{NotImplementedError} exception.

+A read-only attribute which is a string, the name of this handler
+passed to the @code{__init__} method.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.enabled
+A modifiable attribute containing a boolean; when @code{True}, the

+@code{False}, the handler has been disabled, and will not be used.
+@end defvar
+@end deftp
+
+@defun gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler (locus, handler, replace=@code{False})
+Register a new missing objfile handler with @value{GDBN}.
+
+@var{handler} is an instance of a sub-class of
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler}, or at least an instance of an object that
+has the same attributes and methods as @code{MissingObjfileHandler}.
+
+@var{locus} specifies to which handler list to prepend @var{handler}.
+It can be either a @code{gdb.Progspace} (@pxref{Progspaces In Python})
+or @code{None}, in which case the handler is registered globally. The
+newly registered @var{handler} will be called before any other handler
+from the same locus. Two handlers in the same locus cannot have the
+same name, an attempt to add a handler with an already existing name
+raises an exception unless @var{replace} is @code{True}, in which case
+the old handler is deleted and the new handler is prepended to the
+selected handler list.
+
+@value{GDBN} first calls the handlers for the current program space,
+and then the globally registered handlers. As soon as a handler
+returns a value other than @code{None}, no further handlers are
+called.
+@end defun
+
+@subheading Managing Missing Objfile Handlers
+
+@value{GDBN} defines the following commands to manage registered
+missing objfile handlers:
+
+@table @code
+
+@kindex info missing-objfile-handlers
+@item info missing-objfile-handlers @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+Lists all registered missing objfile handlers. Arguments @var{locus}
+and @var{name-regexp} are both optional and can be used to filter
+which handlers are listed.
+
+The @var{locus} argument should be either @kbd{global},
+@kbd{progspace}, or the name of an object file. Only handlers
+registered for the specified locus will be listed.
+
+The @var{name-regexp} is a regular expression used to match against
+handler names.
+
+@kindex disable missing-objfile-handler
+@item disable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching
+handlers, all of the matching handlers are disabled. The
+@code{enabled} field of each matching handler is set to @code{False}.
+
+@kindex enable missing-objfile-handler
+@item enable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching

"registered missing objfile handlers" is confusing wording. I suggest
to say "registered missing-objfile handlers" instead to make it less
confusing.

gdb/python: implement Python find_exec_by_build_id hook
Implement extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid within
GDB's Python API. Doing this allows users to write Python extensions
that can help locate missing objfiles when GDB opens a core file. A
handler might perform some project- or site-specific actions to find a
missing objfile. Or might provide some project- or site-specific
advice to the user on how they can obtain the missing objfile.
The implementation is very similar to the approach taken in:
commit 8f6c452b5a4e50fbb55ff1d13328b392ad1fd416
Date: Sun Oct 15 22:48:42 2023 +0100
gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python missing debug and unwinder
commands are implemented:
info missing-objfile-handlers
enable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing objfile
handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB. When GDB
opens a core file and encounters a missing objfile each handler is
called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a minimal handler
that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_objfile
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, pspace, build_id, filename):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing objfile, and GDB should ask any other
registered handlers.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the objfile couldn't
be found. GDB will not call any other handlers, and will
continue without the objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the objfile into a location where
GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB should repeat its
normal lookup process and the objfile should now be found.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the missing
objfile. GDB will load this file.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the missing objfile, at which point GDB continues.
The implementation of this feature is mostly straight forward. I have
reworked some of the missing debug file related code so that it can be
shared with this feature. E.g. gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_files.py is
mostly content moved from gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py, but
updated to be more generic. Now gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py
and the new file gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_objfile.py both call into
the missing_files.py file.
For gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py this is even more
extreme, gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_debug.py is completely
gone now and gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py provides all
of the new commands in a generic way.
I have made one change to the existing Python API, I renamed the
attribute Progspace.missing_debug_handlers to
Progspace.missing_file_handlers. I don't see this as too
problematic. This attribute was only used to implement the missing
debug feature and was never documented beyond the fact that it
existed. There was no reason for users to be touching this attribute.

+@subsubsection Missing Objfiles In Python
+@cindex python, handle missing objfiles
+
+When @value{GDBN} opens a core file, for example with the
+@kbd{core-file} command (@pxref{core-file command}), @value{GDBN} will
+attempt to load the corresponding executable and shared libraries.
+Often these files can be found on the local machine, but sometimes
+these files cannot be found, in which case the debugging experience
+will be restricted.
+
+If @value{GDBN} fails to locate a particular file then there is an
+opportunity for a Python extension to step in. A Python extension can
+potentially locate the missing file using some platform- or
+project-specific steps, and inform @value{GDBN} of its location. Or a
+Python extension might provide some platform- or project-specific
+advice to the user about how to obtain the missing file.
+
+A missing-objfile Python extension consists of a handler object which
+has the @code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method. When @value{GDBN} encounters a situation
+where a file cannot be found, but the build-id (@pxref{build ID}) for
+the missing file is known, then the @code{__call__} method is invoked
+to try and find the file. Full details of how handlers are written
+can be found below.
+
+@subheading The @code{gdb.missing_objfile} Module
+
+@value{GDBN} comes with a @code{gdb.missing_objfile} module which
+contains the following class and global function:
+
+@deftp{class} gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler
+
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler} is a base class from which user-created
+handlers can derive, though it is not required that handlers derive
+from this class, so long as any user created handler has the
+@code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method.
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__init__ (name)
+The @var{name} is a string used to reference this missing-objfile
+handler within some @value{GDBN} commands. Valid names consist of the
+characters @samp{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}, creating a handler with an invalid
+name raises a @code{ValueError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__call__ (pspace, build_id, filename)
+
+Sub-classes must override the @code{__call__} method. The
+@var{pspace} argument will be a @code{gdb.Progspace}
+(@pxref{Progspaces In Python}), this is the program space in which
+@value{GDBN} is looking for the missing file.
+
+The @var{build_id} argument is a string containing the build-id of the
+file that is missing, this will be in the same format as returned by
+@code{Objfile.build_id} (@pxref{Objfile.build_id}).
+
+The @var{filename} argument contains the name of the file that
+@value{GDBN} is looking for. This information is provided to allow
+handlers to generate informative messages for the user. A handler is
+not required to place the missing file at this location. There might
+already be a file present at this location, but it might not match the
+required build-id, in which case @value{GDBN} will have ignored it.
+In some limited cases @value{GDBN} might not be able to establish the
+@var{filename} of the file it is searching for, in this case
+@value{GDBN} will use a string @samp{with build-id @var{build_id}} as a
+replacement.
+
+The return value from the @code{__call__} method indicates what
+@value{GDBN} should do next. The possible return values are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{None}
+
+This indicates that this handler could not locate the missing file and
+@value{GDBN} should call any other registered handlers.
+
+@item @code{True}
+
+This indicates that this handler has installed the missing file into a
+location where @value{GDBN} would normally expect to find it. The
+only location in which @value{GDBN} will look is within the
+@file{.build-id} sub-directory within the @var{debug-file-directory}
+(@pxref{debug-file-directory}).
+
+@value{GDBN} will repeat the normal lookup process, which should now
+find the previously missing file.
+
+If @value{GDBN} still doesn't find file after this second attempt,
+then the Python missing-objfile handlers are not invoked a second
+time, this prevents a badly behaved handler causing @value{GDBN} to
+get stuck in a loop. @value{GDBN} will continue without the missing
+file, though this will degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item @code{False}
+
+This indicates that this handler has done everything that it intends
+to do but the missing file could not be found. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any other registered handlers to look for the missing file.
+@value{GDBN} will continue without the missing file, though this will
+degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item A string
+
+The returned string should contain a filename. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any further registered handlers, and will instead use the
+returned filename as the missing file.
+@end itemize
+
+Invoking the @code{__call__} method from this base class will raise a
+@code{NotImplementedError} exception.

+
+@var{handler} is an instance of a sub-class of
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler}, or at least an instance of an object that
+has the same attributes and methods as @code{MissingObjfileHandler}.
+
+@var{locus} specifies to which handler list to prepend @var{handler}.
+It can be either a @code{gdb.Progspace} (@pxref{Progspaces In Python})
+or @code{None}, in which case the handler is registered globally. The
+newly registered @var{handler} will be called before any other handler
+from the same locus. Two handlers in the same locus cannot have the
+same name, an attempt to add a handler with an already existing name
+raises an exception unless @var{replace} is @code{True}, in which case
+the old handler is deleted and the new handler is prepended to the
+selected handler list.
+
+@value{GDBN} first calls the handlers for the current program space,
+and then the globally registered handlers. As soon as a handler
+returns a value other than @code{None}, no further handlers are

I actually think this is better, because it is more precise about what

Anyway this looks fine to me.

This seems fine to me, though I suspect the logic would be a little
clearer if step (1) was a new function that was then conditionally
called from (4). This would avoid the state-tracking loop.

I think the Python types aren't capitalized and the string type is named

commit e915b58444a150451d47ee92c12e40ac515c34ec

gdb/python: implement Python find_exec_by_build_id hook
Implement extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid within
GDB's Python API. Doing this allows users to write Python extensions
that can help locate missing objfiles when GDB opens a core file. A
handler might perform some project- or site-specific actions to find a
missing objfile. Or might provide some project- or site-specific
advice to the user on how they can obtain the missing objfile.
The implementation is very similar to the approach taken in:
commit 8f6c452b5a4e50fbb55ff1d13328b392ad1fd416
Date: Sun Oct 15 22:48:42 2023 +0100
gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python missing debug and unwinder
commands are implemented:
info missing-objfile-handlers
enable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing objfile
handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB. When GDB
opens a core file and encounters a missing objfile each handler is
called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a minimal handler
that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_objfile
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, pspace, build_id, filename):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing objfile, and GDB should ask any other
registered handlers.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the objfile couldn't
be found. GDB will not call any other handlers, and will
continue without the objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the objfile into a location where
GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB should repeat its
normal lookup process and the objfile should now be found.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the missing
objfile. GDB will load this file.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the missing objfile, at which point GDB continues.
The implementation of this feature is mostly straight forward. I have
reworked some of the missing debug file related code so that it can be
shared with this feature. E.g. gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_files.py is
mostly content moved from gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py, but
updated to be more generic. Now gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py
and the new file gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_objfile.py both call into
the missing_files.py file.
For gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py this is even more
extreme, gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_debug.py is completely
gone now and gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py provides all
of the new commands in a generic way.
I have made one change to the existing Python API, I renamed the
attribute Progspace.missing_debug_handlers to
Progspace.missing_file_handlers. I don't see this as too
problematic. This attribute was only used to implement the missing
debug feature and was never documented beyond the fact that it
existed. There was no reason for users to be touching this attribute.

+@subsubsection Missing Objfiles In Python
+@cindex python, handle missing objfiles
+
+When @value{GDBN} opens a core file, for example with the
+@kbd{core-file} command (@pxref{core-file command}), @value{GDBN} will
+attempt to load the corresponding executable and shared libraries.
+Often these files can be found on the local machine, but sometimes
+these files cannot be found, in which case the debugging experience
+will be restricted.
+
+If @value{GDBN} fails to locate a particular file then there is an
+opportunity for a Python extension to step in. A Python extension can
+potentially locate the missing file using some platform- or
+project-specific steps, and inform @value{GDBN} of its location. Or a
+Python extension might provide some platform- or project-specific
+advice to the user about how to obtain the missing file.
+
+A missing-objfile Python extension consists of a handler object which
+has the @code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method. When @value{GDBN} encounters a situation
+where a file cannot be found, but the build-id (@pxref{build ID}) for
+the missing file is known, then the @code{__call__} method is invoked
+to try and find the file. Full details of how handlers are written
+can be found below.
+
+@subheading The @code{gdb.missing_objfile} Module
+
+@value{GDBN} comes with a @code{gdb.missing_objfile} module which
+contains the following class and global function:
+
+@deftp{class} gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler
+
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler} is a base class from which user-created
+handlers can derive, though it is not required that handlers derive
+from this class, so long as any user created handler has the
+@code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method.
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__init__ (name)
+The @var{name} is a string used to reference this missing-objfile
+handler within some @value{GDBN} commands. Valid names consist of the
+characters @samp{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}, creating a handler with an invalid
+name raises a @code{ValueError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__call__ (pspace, build_id, filename)
+
+Sub-classes must override the @code{__call__} method. The
+@var{pspace} argument will be a @code{gdb.Progspace}
+(@pxref{Progspaces In Python}), this is the program space in which
+@value{GDBN} is looking for the missing file.
+
+The @var{build_id} argument is a string containing the build-id of the
+file that is missing, this will be in the same format as returned by
+@code{Objfile.build_id} (@pxref{Objfile.build_id}).
+
+The @var{filename} argument contains the name of the file that
+@value{GDBN} is looking for. This information is provided to allow
+handlers to generate informative messages for the user. A handler is
+not required to place the missing file at this location. There might
+already be a file present at this location, but it might not match the
+required build-id, in which case @value{GDBN} will have ignored it.
+In some limited cases @value{GDBN} might not be able to establish the
+@var{filename} of the file it is searching for, in this case
+@value{GDBN} will use a string @samp{with build-id @var{build_id}} as a
+replacement.
+
+The return value from the @code{__call__} method indicates what
+@value{GDBN} should do next. The possible return values are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{None}
+
+This indicates that this handler could not locate the missing file and
+@value{GDBN} should call any other registered handlers.
+
+@item @code{True}
+
+This indicates that this handler has installed the missing file into a
+location where @value{GDBN} would normally expect to find it. The
+only location in which @value{GDBN} will look is within the
+@file{.build-id} sub-directory within the @var{debug-file-directory}
+(@pxref{debug-file-directory}).
+
+@value{GDBN} will repeat the normal lookup process, which should now
+find the previously missing file.
+
+If @value{GDBN} still doesn't find file after this second attempt,
+then the Python missing-objfile handlers are not invoked a second
+time, this prevents a badly behaved handler causing @value{GDBN} to
+get stuck in a loop. @value{GDBN} will continue without the missing
+file, though this will degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item @code{False}
+
+This indicates that this handler has done everything that it intends
+to do but the missing file could not be found. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any other registered handlers to look for the missing file.
+@value{GDBN} will continue without the missing file, though this will
+degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item A string
+
+The returned string should contain a filename. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any further registered handlers, and will instead use the
+returned filename as the missing file.
+@end itemize
+
+Invoking the @code{__call__} method from this base class will raise a
+@code{NotImplementedError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.name
+A read-only attribute which is a string, the name of this handler
+passed to the @code{__init__} method.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.enabled
+A modifiable attribute containing a boolean; when @code{True}, the
+handler is enabled, and will be used by @value{GDBN}. When
+@code{False}, the handler has been disabled, and will not be used.
+@end defvar
+@end deftp
+
+@defun gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler (locus, handler, replace=@code{False})
+Register a new missing-objfile handler with @value{GDBN}.
+
+@var{handler} is an instance of a sub-class of
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler}, or at least an instance of an object that
+has the same attributes and methods as @code{MissingObjfileHandler}.
+
+@var{locus} specifies to which handler list to prepend @var{handler}.
+It can be either a @code{gdb.Progspace} (@pxref{Progspaces In Python})
+or @code{None}, in which case the handler is registered globally. The
+newly registered @var{handler} will be called before any other handler
+from the same locus. Two handlers in the same locus cannot have the
+same name, an attempt to add a handler with an already existing name
+raises an exception unless @var{replace} is @code{True}, in which case
+the old handler is deleted and the new handler is prepended to the
+selected handler list.
+
+@value{GDBN} first calls the handlers for the current program space,
+and then the globally registered handlers. As soon as a handler
+returns a value other than @code{None}, no further handlers are
+called.
+@end defun
+
+@subheading Managing Missing-Objfile Handlers
+
+@value{GDBN} defines the following commands to manage registered
+missing-objfile handlers:
+
+@table @code
+
+@kindex info missing-objfile-handlers
+@item info missing-objfile-handlers @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+Lists all registered missing-objfile handlers. Arguments @var{locus}
+and @var{name-regexp} are both optional and can be used to filter
+which handlers are listed.
+
+The @var{locus} argument should be either @kbd{global},
+@kbd{progspace}, or the name of an object file. Only handlers
+registered for the specified locus will be listed.
+
+The @var{name-regexp} is a regular expression used to match against
+handler names.
+
+@kindex disable missing-objfile-handler
+@item disable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching
+handlers, all of the matching handlers are disabled. The
+@code{enabled} field of each matching handler is set to @code{False}.
+
+@kindex enable missing-objfile-handler
+@item enable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching
+handlers, all of the matching handlers are enabled. The
+@code{enabled} field of each matching handler is set to @code{True}.

In v2:
- Addressed Tom's feedback on patch #4.
- Rebased onto current HEAD.
- Retested.
---
This series provides a Python API which can be used to find missing
objfiles when opening a core file. This is very similar in spirit to
the already existing code that provides a Python API for finding
missing debug information.
The first patch in this series cleans up the message that debuginfod
produces. This is only relevant because the cleanup changes which
filenames are passed around, these same filenames are then passed into
the new Python API.
Patch #2 is a refactoring.
Patch #3 adds the new extension language API on the GDB core side.
Patch #4 adds the Python side of the same API.
For reference, see these commits for when the missing debug files
Python API was added:
* 8f6c452b5a4 gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
* 661d98a3331 gdb: add an extension language hook for missing debug info
Thanks,
Andrew

When opening a core-file GDB is able to use debuginfod to download the
executable that matches the core-file if GDB can find a build-id for
the executable in the core-file.
In this case GDB calls debuginfod_exec_query to download the
executable and GDB prints a message like:
Downloading executable for /path/to/core-file...
which makes sense in that case.
For a long time GDB has also had the ability to download memory-mapped
files and shared libraries when opening a core-file. However, recent
commits have made these cases more likely to trigger, which is a good
thing, but the messaging from GDB in these cases is not ideal. When
downloading a memory-mapped file GDB prints:
Downloading executable for /path/to/memory-mapped-file
And for a shared library:
Downloading executable for /path/to/libfoo.so
These last two messages could, I think, be improved.
I propose making two changes. First, I suggest instead of using
/path/to/core-file in the first case, we use the name of the
executable that GDB is fetching. This makes the messaging consistent
in that we print the name of the file we're fetching rather than the
name of the file we're fetching something for.
I further propose that we replace 'executable for' with the more
generic word 'file'. The messages will then become:
Downloading file /path/to/exec-file...
Downloading file /path/to/memory-mapped-file...
Downloading file /path/to/libfoo.so...
I think these messages are clearer than what we used to have, and they
are consistent in that we name the thing being downloaded in all
cases.
There is one tiny problem. The first case relies on GDB knowing the
name of the executable it wants to download. The only place we can
currently get that from is, I think, the memory-mapped file list.
[ ASIDE: There is `bfd_core_file_failing_command` which reports the
executable and argument list from the core file, but this
information is not ideal for this task. First, the executable and
arguments are merged into a single string, and second, the string is
a relatively short, fixed length string, so the executable name is
often truncated. For these reasons I don't consider fetching the
executable name using this bfd function as a solution. ]
We do have to consider the case that the core file does not have any
mapped file information. This shouldn't ever be the case for a Linux
target, but it's worth considering.
[ ASIDE: I mention Linux specifically because this only becomes a
problem if we try to do a lookup via debuginfod, which requires that
we have build-ids available. Linux has special support for
embedding build-ids into the core file, but I'm not sure if other
kernels do this. ]
For the unlikely edge case of a core-file that has build-ids, but
doesn't have any mapped file information then I propose that we
synthesis a filename like: 'with build-id xxxxxx'. We would then see
a message like:
Downloading file with build-id xxxxxx...
Where 'xxxxxx' would be replaced by the actual build-id.
This isn't ideal, but I think is good enough, and, as I said, I think
this case is not going to be hit very often, or maybe at all.
We already had some tests that emitted two of the above messages,
which I've updated, these cover the mapped-file and shared library
case.
The message about downloading the exec for the core-file is actually
really hard to trigger now as usually the exec will also appear in the
memory-mapped file list and GDB will download the file at this stage.
Then when GDB needs the executable for loading the symbols it'll ask
debuginfod, and debuginfod will find the file in its cache, and so no
message will be printed.
If anyone has any ideas about how to trigger this case then I'm happy
to add additional tests.

In preparation for later commits in this series, rename
ext_lang_missing_debuginfo_result to ext_lang_missing_file_result.
A later commit will add additional Python APIs to handle different
types of missing files beyond just debuginfo.
This is just a rename commit, there should be no functional changes
after this commit.

Add a new ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function which is called
from find_objfile_by_build_id and gives extension languages a chance
to find missing objfiles.
This commit adds the ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function and
the extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid() hook, but does
not implement the hook for any extension languages, that will come in
the next commit.
This commit does rewrite find_objfile_by_build_id (build-id.c) to call
the new hook though. The basic steps of find_objfile_by_build_id are
now this:
1. Try to find the missing objfile using the build-id by looking in
the debug-file-directory's .build-id/ sub-directory. If we find the
file then we're done.
2. Ask debuginfod to download the missing file for us. If we
download the file successfully then we're done.
3. Ask the extension language hook to find the file for us. If the
extension language asks us to try again then we repeat step (1) only
and if we still don't have the file, we move to step (4). If the
extension language told us where the file is then we use that file
and we're done.
4. We didn't find the file. Carry on without it.
Only step (3) is new in this logic, everything else was already done.
There are no tests added here as we can't currently write an extension
language callback. The next commit will add the tests.

Implement extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid within
GDB's Python API. Doing this allows users to write Python extensions
that can help locate missing objfiles when GDB opens a core file. A
handler might perform some project- or site-specific actions to find a
missing objfile. Or might provide some project- or site-specific
advice to the user on how they can obtain the missing objfile.
The implementation is very similar to the approach taken in:
commit 8f6c452b5a4e50fbb55ff1d13328b392ad1fd416
Date: Sun Oct 15 22:48:42 2023 +0100
gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python missing debug and unwinder
commands are implemented:
info missing-objfile-handlers
enable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing objfile
handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB. When GDB
opens a core file and encounters a missing objfile each handler is
called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a minimal handler
that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_objfile
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, pspace, build_id, filename):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing objfile, and GDB should ask any other
registered handlers.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the objfile couldn't
be found. GDB will not call any other handlers, and will
continue without the objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the objfile into a location where
GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB should repeat its
normal lookup process and the objfile should now be found.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the missing
objfile. GDB will load this file.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the missing objfile, at which point GDB continues.
The implementation of this feature is mostly straight forward. I have
reworked some of the missing debug file related code so that it can be
shared with this feature. E.g. gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_files.py is
mostly content moved from gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py, but
updated to be more generic. Now gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py
and the new file gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_objfile.py both call into
the missing_files.py file.
For gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py this is even more
extreme, gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_debug.py is completely
gone now and gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py provides all
of the new commands in a generic way.
I have made one change to the existing Python API, I renamed the
attribute Progspace.missing_debug_handlers to
Progspace.missing_file_handlers. I don't see this as too
problematic. This attribute was only used to implement the missing
debug feature and was never documented beyond the fact that it
existed. There was no reason for users to be touching this attribute.

+When @value{GDBN} opens a core file, for example with the
+@kbd{core-file} command (@pxref{core-file command}), @value{GDBN} will
+attempt to load the corresponding executable and shared libraries.
+Often these files can be found on the local machine, but sometimes
+these files cannot be found, in which case the debugging experience
+will be restricted.
+
+If @value{GDBN} fails to locate a particular file then there is an
+opportunity for a Python extension to step in. A Python extension can
+potentially locate the missing file using some platform- or
+project-specific steps, and inform @value{GDBN} of its location. Or a
+Python extension might provide some platform- or project-specific
+advice to the user about how to obtain the missing file.
+
+A missing-objfile Python extension consists of a handler object which
+has the @code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method. When @value{GDBN} encounters a situation
+where a file cannot be found, but the build-id (@pxref{build ID}) for
+the missing file is known, then the @code{__call__} method is invoked
+to try and find the file. Full details of how handlers are written
+can be found below.
+
+@subheading The @code{gdb.missing_objfile} Module
+
+@value{GDBN} comes with a @code{gdb.missing_objfile} module which
+contains the following class and global function:
+
+@deftp{class} gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler
+
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler} is a base class from which user-created
+handlers can derive, though it is not required that handlers derive
+from this class, so long as any user created handler has the
+@code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method.
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__init__ (name)
+The @var{name} is a string used to reference this missing-objfile
+handler within some @value{GDBN} commands. Valid names consist of the
+characters @samp{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}, creating a handler with an invalid
+name raises a @code{ValueError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__call__ (pspace, build_id, filename)
+
+Sub-classes must override the @code{__call__} method. The
+@var{pspace} argument will be a @code{gdb.Progspace}
+(@pxref{Progspaces In Python}), this is the program space in which
+@value{GDBN} is looking for the missing file.
+
+The @var{build_id} argument is a string containing the build-id of the
+file that is missing, this will be in the same format as returned by
+@code{Objfile.build_id} (@pxref{Objfile.build_id}).
+
+The @var{filename} argument contains the name of the file that
+@value{GDBN} is looking for. This information is provided to allow
+handlers to generate informative messages for the user. A handler is
+not required to place the missing file at this location. There might
+already be a file present at this location, but it might not match the
+required build-id, in which case @value{GDBN} will have ignored it.
+In some limited cases @value{GDBN} might not be able to establish the
+@var{filename} of the file it is searching for, in this case
+@value{GDBN} will use a string @samp{with build-id @var{build_id}} as a
+replacement.
+
+The return value from the @code{__call__} method indicates what
+@value{GDBN} should do next. The possible return values are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{None}
+
+This indicates that this handler could not locate the missing file and
+@value{GDBN} should call any other registered handlers.
+
+@item @code{True}
+
+This indicates that this handler has installed the missing file into a
+location where @value{GDBN} would normally expect to find it. The
+only location in which @value{GDBN} will look is within the
+@file{.build-id} sub-directory within the @var{debug-file-directory}
+(@pxref{debug-file-directory}).
+
+@value{GDBN} will repeat the normal lookup process, which should now
+find the previously missing file.
+
+If @value{GDBN} still doesn't find file after this second attempt,
+then the Python missing-objfile handlers are not invoked a second
+time, this prevents a badly behaved handler causing @value{GDBN} to
+get stuck in a loop. @value{GDBN} will continue without the missing
+file, though this will degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item @code{False}
+
+This indicates that this handler has done everything that it intends
+to do but the missing file could not be found. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any other registered handlers to look for the missing file.
+@value{GDBN} will continue without the missing file, though this will
+degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item A string
+
+The returned string should contain a filename. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any further registered handlers, and will instead use the
+returned filename as the missing file.
+@end itemize
+
+Invoking the @code{__call__} method from this base class will raise a
+@code{NotImplementedError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.name
+A read-only attribute which is a string, the name of this handler
+passed to the @code{__init__} method.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.enabled
+A modifiable attribute containing a boolean; when @code{True}, the
+handler is enabled, and will be used by @value{GDBN}. When
+@code{False}, the handler has been disabled, and will not be used.
+@end defvar
+@end deftp
+
+@defun gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler (locus, handler, replace=@code{False})
+Register a new missing-objfile handler with @value{GDBN}.
+
+@var{handler} is an instance of a sub-class of
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler}, or at least an instance of an object that
+has the same attributes and methods as @code{MissingObjfileHandler}.
+
+@var{locus} specifies to which handler list to prepend @var{handler}.
+It can be either a @code{gdb.Progspace} (@pxref{Progspaces In Python})
+or @code{None}, in which case the handler is registered globally. The
+newly registered @var{handler} will be called before any other handler
+from the same locus. Two handlers in the same locus cannot have the
+same name, an attempt to add a handler with an already existing name
+raises an exception unless @var{replace} is @code{True}, in which case
+the old handler is deleted and the new handler is prepended to the
+selected handler list.
+
+@value{GDBN} first calls the handlers for the current program space,
+and then the globally registered handlers. As soon as a handler
+returns a value other than @code{None}, no further handlers are
+called.
+@end defun
+
+@subheading Managing Missing-Objfile Handlers
+
+@value{GDBN} defines the following commands to manage registered
+missing-objfile handlers:
+
+@table @code
+
+@kindex info missing-objfile-handlers
+@item info missing-objfile-handlers @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+Lists all registered missing-objfile handlers. Arguments @var{locus}
+and @var{name-regexp} are both optional and can be used to filter
+which handlers are listed.
+
+The @var{locus} argument should be either @kbd{global},
+@kbd{progspace}, or the name of an object file. Only handlers
+registered for the specified locus will be listed.
+
+The @var{name-regexp} is a regular expression used to match against
+handler names.
+
+@kindex disable missing-objfile-handler
+@item disable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching
+handlers, all of the matching handlers are disabled. The
+@code{enabled} field of each matching handler is set to @code{False}.
+
+@kindex enable missing-objfile-handler
+@item enable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching

To: gdb-patches; +Cc: Andrew Burgess
I'm planning to push this series in the near future.
There was a review of v1 which didn't show up anything serious, and
the implementation for this feature matches the implementation of the
missing objfile feature, so I don't think it would make sense to make
any significant changes.
---
In v3:
- Minor fixes for the tests in patch #4, this resolves the failures
when run with check-all-boards. No issues found in GDB.
- Rebased.
In v2:
- Addressed Tom's feedback on patch #4.
- Rebased onto current HEAD.
- Retested.
---
This series provides a Python API which can be used to find missing
objfiles when opening a core file. This is very similar in spirit to
the already existing code that provides a Python API for finding
missing debug information.
The first patch in this series cleans up the message that debuginfod
produces. This is only relevant because the cleanup changes which
filenames are passed around, these same filenames are then passed into
the new Python API.
Patch #2 is a refactoring.
Patch #3 adds the new extension language API on the GDB core side.
Patch #4 adds the Python side of the same API.
For reference, see these commits for when the missing debug files
Python API was added:
* 8f6c452b5a4 gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
* 661d98a3331 gdb: add an extension language hook for missing debug info
Thanks,
Andrew

* [PATCHv3 1/4] gdb: use mapped file information to improve debuginfod text

To: gdb-patches; +Cc: Andrew Burgess, Tom Tromey
When opening a core-file GDB is able to use debuginfod to download the
executable that matches the core-file if GDB can find a build-id for
the executable in the core-file.
In this case GDB calls debuginfod_exec_query to download the
executable and GDB prints a message like:
Downloading executable for /path/to/core-file...
which makes sense in that case.
For a long time GDB has also had the ability to download memory-mapped
files and shared libraries when opening a core-file. However, recent
commits have made these cases more likely to trigger, which is a good
thing, but the messaging from GDB in these cases is not ideal. When
downloading a memory-mapped file GDB prints:
Downloading executable for /path/to/memory-mapped-file
And for a shared library:
Downloading executable for /path/to/libfoo.so
These last two messages could, I think, be improved.
I propose making two changes. First, I suggest instead of using
/path/to/core-file in the first case, we use the name of the
executable that GDB is fetching. This makes the messaging consistent
in that we print the name of the file we're fetching rather than the
name of the file we're fetching something for.
I further propose that we replace 'executable for' with the more
generic word 'file'. The messages will then become:
Downloading file /path/to/exec-file...
Downloading file /path/to/memory-mapped-file...
Downloading file /path/to/libfoo.so...
I think these messages are clearer than what we used to have, and they
are consistent in that we name the thing being downloaded in all
cases.
There is one tiny problem. The first case relies on GDB knowing the
name of the executable it wants to download. The only place we can
currently get that from is, I think, the memory-mapped file list.
[ ASIDE: There is `bfd_core_file_failing_command` which reports the
executable and argument list from the core file, but this
information is not ideal for this task. First, the executable and
arguments are merged into a single string, and second, the string is
a relatively short, fixed length string, so the executable name is
often truncated. For these reasons I don't consider fetching the
executable name using this bfd function as a solution. ]
We do have to consider the case that the core file does not have any
mapped file information. This shouldn't ever be the case for a Linux
target, but it's worth considering.
[ ASIDE: I mention Linux specifically because this only becomes a
problem if we try to do a lookup via debuginfod, which requires that
we have build-ids available. Linux has special support for
embedding build-ids into the core file, but I'm not sure if other
kernels do this. ]
For the unlikely edge case of a core-file that has build-ids, but
doesn't have any mapped file information then I propose that we
synthesis a filename like: 'with build-id xxxxxx'. We would then see
a message like:
Downloading file with build-id xxxxxx...
Where 'xxxxxx' would be replaced by the actual build-id.
This isn't ideal, but I think is good enough, and, as I said, I think
this case is not going to be hit very often, or maybe at all.
We already had some tests that emitted two of the above messages,
which I've updated, these cover the mapped-file and shared library
case.
The message about downloading the exec for the core-file is actually
really hard to trigger now as usually the exec will also appear in the
memory-mapped file list and GDB will download the file at this stage.
Then when GDB needs the executable for loading the symbols it'll ask
debuginfod, and debuginfod will find the file in its cache, and so no
message will be printed.
If anyone has any ideas about how to trigger this case then I'm happy
to add additional tests.

In preparation for later commits in this series, rename
ext_lang_missing_debuginfo_result to ext_lang_missing_file_result.
A later commit will add additional Python APIs to handle different
types of missing files beyond just debuginfo.
This is just a rename commit, there should be no functional changes
after this commit.

Add a new ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function which is called
from find_objfile_by_build_id and gives extension languages a chance
to find missing objfiles.
This commit adds the ext_lang_find_objfile_from_buildid function and
the extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid() hook, but does
not implement the hook for any extension languages, that will come in
the next commit.
This commit does rewrite find_objfile_by_build_id (build-id.c) to call
the new hook though. The basic steps of find_objfile_by_build_id are
now this:
1. Try to find the missing objfile using the build-id by looking in
the debug-file-directory's .build-id/ sub-directory. If we find the
file then we're done.
2. Ask debuginfod to download the missing file for us. If we
download the file successfully then we're done.
3. Ask the extension language hook to find the file for us. If the
extension language asks us to try again then we repeat step (1) only
and if we still don't have the file, we move to step (4). If the
extension language told us where the file is then we use that file
and we're done.
4. We didn't find the file. Carry on without it.
Only step (3) is new in this logic, everything else was already done.
There are no tests added here as we can't currently write an extension
language callback. The next commit will add the tests.

Implement extension_language_ops::find_objfile_from_buildid within
GDB's Python API. Doing this allows users to write Python extensions
that can help locate missing objfiles when GDB opens a core file. A
handler might perform some project- or site-specific actions to find a
missing objfile. Or might provide some project- or site-specific
advice to the user on how they can obtain the missing objfile.
The implementation is very similar to the approach taken in:
commit 8f6c452b5a4e50fbb55ff1d13328b392ad1fd416
Date: Sun Oct 15 22:48:42 2023 +0100
gdb: implement missing debug handler hook for Python
The following new commands are added as commands implemented in
Python, this is similar to how the Python missing debug and unwinder
commands are implemented:
info missing-objfile-handlers
enable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
disable missing-objfile-handler LOCUS HANDLER
To make use of this extension hook a user will create missing objfile
handler objects, and registers these handlers with GDB. When GDB
opens a core file and encounters a missing objfile each handler is
called in turn until one is able to help. Here is a minimal handler
that does nothing useful:
import gdb
import gdb.missing_objfile
class MyFirstHandler(gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__("my_first_handler")
def __call__(self, pspace, build_id, filename):
# This handler does nothing useful.
return None
gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler(None, MyFirstHandler())
Returning None from the __call__ method tells GDB that this handler
was unable to find the missing objfile, and GDB should ask any other
registered handlers.
Possible return values from a handler:
- None: This means the handler couldn't help. GDB will call other
registered handlers to see if they can help instead.
- False: The handler has done all it can, but the objfile couldn't
be found. GDB will not call any other handlers, and will
continue without the objfile.
- True: The handler has installed the objfile into a location where
GDB would normally expect to find it. GDB should repeat its
normal lookup process and the objfile should now be found.
- A string: The handler can return a filename, which is the missing
objfile. GDB will load this file.
Handlers can be registered globally, or per program space. GDB checks
the handlers for the current program space first, and then all of the
global handles. The first handler that returns a value that is not
None, has "handled" the missing objfile, at which point GDB continues.
The implementation of this feature is mostly straight forward. I have
reworked some of the missing debug file related code so that it can be
shared with this feature. E.g. gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_files.py is
mostly content moved from gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py, but
updated to be more generic. Now gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_debug.py
and the new file gdb/python/lib/gdb/missing_objfile.py both call into
the missing_files.py file.
For gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py this is even more
extreme, gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_debug.py is completely
gone now and gdb/python/lib/gdb/command/missing_files.py provides all
of the new commands in a generic way.
I have made one change to the existing Python API, I renamed the
attribute Progspace.missing_debug_handlers to
Progspace.missing_file_handlers. I don't see this as too
problematic. This attribute was only used to implement the missing
debug feature and was never documented beyond the fact that it
existed. There was no reason for users to be touching this attribute.

+@subsubsection Missing Objfiles In Python
+@cindex python, handle missing objfiles
+
+When @value{GDBN} opens a core file, for example with the
+@kbd{core-file} command (@pxref{core-file command}), @value{GDBN} will
+attempt to load the corresponding executable and shared libraries.
+Often these files can be found on the local machine, but sometimes
+these files cannot be found, in which case the debugging experience
+will be restricted.
+
+If @value{GDBN} fails to locate a particular file then there is an
+opportunity for a Python extension to step in. A Python extension can
+potentially locate the missing file using some platform- or
+project-specific steps, and inform @value{GDBN} of its location. Or a
+Python extension might provide some platform- or project-specific
+advice to the user about how to obtain the missing file.
+
+A missing-objfile Python extension consists of a handler object which
+has the @code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method. When @value{GDBN} encounters a situation
+where a file cannot be found, but the build-id (@pxref{build ID}) for
+the missing file is known, then the @code{__call__} method is invoked
+to try and find the file. Full details of how handlers are written
+can be found below.
+
+@subheading The @code{gdb.missing_objfile} Module
+
+@value{GDBN} comes with a @code{gdb.missing_objfile} module which
+contains the following class and global function:
+
+@deftp{class} gdb.missing_objfile.MissingObjfileHandler
+
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler} is a base class from which user-created
+handlers can derive, though it is not required that handlers derive
+from this class, so long as any user created handler has the
+@code{name} and @code{enabled} attributes, and implements the
+@code{__call__} method.
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__init__ (name)
+The @var{name} is a string used to reference this missing-objfile
+handler within some @value{GDBN} commands. Valid names consist of the
+characters @samp{[-_a-zA-Z0-9]}, creating a handler with an invalid
+name raises a @code{ValueError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defun MissingObjfileHandler.__call__ (pspace, build_id, filename)
+
+Sub-classes must override the @code{__call__} method. The
+@var{pspace} argument will be a @code{gdb.Progspace}
+(@pxref{Progspaces In Python}), this is the program space in which
+@value{GDBN} is looking for the missing file.
+
+The @var{build_id} argument is a string containing the build-id of the
+file that is missing, this will be in the same format as returned by
+@code{Objfile.build_id} (@pxref{Objfile.build_id}).
+
+The @var{filename} argument contains the name of the file that
+@value{GDBN} is looking for. This information is provided to allow
+handlers to generate informative messages for the user. A handler is
+not required to place the missing file at this location. There might
+already be a file present at this location, but it might not match the
+required build-id, in which case @value{GDBN} will have ignored it.
+In some limited cases @value{GDBN} might not be able to establish the
+@var{filename} of the file it is searching for, in this case
+@value{GDBN} will use a string @samp{with build-id @var{build_id}} as a
+replacement.
+
+The return value from the @code{__call__} method indicates what
+@value{GDBN} should do next. The possible return values are:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item @code{None}
+
+This indicates that this handler could not locate the missing file and
+@value{GDBN} should call any other registered handlers.
+
+@item @code{True}
+
+This indicates that this handler has installed the missing file into a
+location where @value{GDBN} would normally expect to find it. The
+only location in which @value{GDBN} will look is within the
+@file{.build-id} sub-directory within the @var{debug-file-directory}
+(@pxref{debug-file-directory}).
+
+@value{GDBN} will repeat the normal lookup process, which should now
+find the previously missing file.
+
+If @value{GDBN} still doesn't find file after this second attempt,
+then the Python missing-objfile handlers are not invoked a second
+time, this prevents a badly behaved handler causing @value{GDBN} to
+get stuck in a loop. @value{GDBN} will continue without the missing
+file, though this will degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item @code{False}
+
+This indicates that this handler has done everything that it intends
+to do but the missing file could not be found. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any other registered handlers to look for the missing file.
+@value{GDBN} will continue without the missing file, though this will
+degrade the debugging experience.
+
+@item A string
+
+The returned string should contain a filename. @value{GDBN} will not
+call any further registered handlers, and will instead use the
+returned filename as the missing file.
+@end itemize
+
+Invoking the @code{__call__} method from this base class will raise a
+@code{NotImplementedError} exception.
+@end defun
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.name
+A read-only attribute which is a string, the name of this handler
+passed to the @code{__init__} method.
+@end defvar
+
+@defvar MissingObjfileHandler.enabled
+A modifiable attribute containing a boolean; when @code{True}, the
+handler is enabled, and will be used by @value{GDBN}. When
+@code{False}, the handler has been disabled, and will not be used.
+@end defvar
+@end deftp
+
+@defun gdb.missing_objfile.register_handler (locus, handler, replace=@code{False})
+Register a new missing-objfile handler with @value{GDBN}.
+
+@var{handler} is an instance of a sub-class of
+@code{MissingObjfileHandler}, or at least an instance of an object that
+has the same attributes and methods as @code{MissingObjfileHandler}.
+
+@var{locus} specifies to which handler list to prepend @var{handler}.
+It can be either a @code{gdb.Progspace} (@pxref{Progspaces In Python})
+or @code{None}, in which case the handler is registered globally. The
+newly registered @var{handler} will be called before any other handler
+from the same locus. Two handlers in the same locus cannot have the
+same name, an attempt to add a handler with an already existing name
+raises an exception unless @var{replace} is @code{True}, in which case
+the old handler is deleted and the new handler is prepended to the
+selected handler list.
+
+@value{GDBN} first calls the handlers for the current program space,
+and then the globally registered handlers. As soon as a handler
+returns a value other than @code{None}, no further handlers are
+called.
+@end defun
+
+@subheading Managing Missing-Objfile Handlers
+
+@value{GDBN} defines the following commands to manage registered
+missing-objfile handlers:
+
+@table @code
+
+@kindex info missing-objfile-handlers
+@item info missing-objfile-handlers @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+Lists all registered missing-objfile handlers. Arguments @var{locus}
+and @var{name-regexp} are both optional and can be used to filter
+which handlers are listed.
+
+The @var{locus} argument should be either @kbd{global},
+@kbd{progspace}, or the name of an object file. Only handlers
+registered for the specified locus will be listed.
+
+The @var{name-regexp} is a regular expression used to match against
+handler names.
+
+@kindex disable missing-objfile-handler
+@item disable missing-objfile-handler @r{[} @var{locus} @r{[} @var{name-regexp} @r{]} @r{]}
+The @var{locus} and @var{name-regexp} are interpreted as in @kbd{info
+missing-objfile-handlers} above, but instead of listing the matching
+handlers, all of the matching handlers are disabled. The
