114 /* A program space represents a symbolic view of an address space.
115 Roughly speaking, it holds all the data associated with a
116 non-running-yet program (main executable, main symbols), and when
117 an inferior is running and is bound to it, includes the list of its
118 mapped in shared libraries.
119
120 In the traditional debugging scenario, there's a 1-1 correspondence
121 among program spaces, inferiors and address spaces, like so:
122
123 pspace1 (prog1) <--> inf1(pid1) <--> aspace1
124
125 In the case of debugging more than one traditional unix process or
126 program, we still have:
127
128 |-----------------+------------+---------|
129 | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 |
130 |----------------------------------------|
131 | pspace2 (prog1) | no inf yet | aspace2 |
132 |-----------------+------------+---------|
133 | pspace3 (prog2) | inf2(pid2) | aspace3 |
134 |-----------------+------------+---------|
135
136 In the former example, if inf1 forks (and GDB stays attached to
137 both processes), the new child will have its own program and
138 address spaces. Like so:
139
140 |-----------------+------------+---------|
141 | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 |
142 |-----------------+------------+---------|
143 | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 |
144 |-----------------+------------+---------|
145
146 However, had inf1 from the latter case vforked instead, it would
147 share the program and address spaces with its parent, until it
148 execs or exits, like so:
149
150 |-----------------+------------+---------|
151 | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 |
152 | | inf2(pid2) | |
153 |-----------------+------------+---------|
154
155 When the vfork child execs, it is finally given new program and
156 address spaces.
157
158 |-----------------+------------+---------|
159 | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 |
160 |-----------------+------------+---------|
161 | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 |
162 |-----------------+------------+---------|
163
164 There are targets where the OS (if any) doesn't provide memory
165 management or VM protection, where all inferiors share the same
166 address space --- e.g. uClinux. GDB models this by having all
167 inferiors share the same address space, but, giving each its own
168 program space, like so:
169
170 |-----------------+------------+---------|
171 | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | |
172 |-----------------+------------+ |
173 | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace1 |
174 |-----------------+------------+ |
175 | pspace3 (prog2) | inf3(pid3) | |
176 |-----------------+------------+---------|
177
178 The address space sharing matters for run control and breakpoints
179 management. E.g., did we just hit a known breakpoint that we need
180 to step over? Is this breakpoint a duplicate of this other one, or
181 do I need to insert a trap?
182
183 Then, there are targets where all symbols look the same for all
184 inferiors, although each has its own address space, as e.g.,
185 Ericsson DICOS. In such case, the model is:
186
187 |---------+------------+---------|
188 | | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 |
189 | +------------+---------|
190 | pspace | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 |
191 | +------------+---------|
192 | | inf3(pid3) | aspace3 |
193 |---------+------------+---------|
194
195 Note however, that the DICOS debug API takes care of making GDB
196 believe that breakpoints are "global". That is, although each
197 process does have its own private copy of data symbols (just like a
198 bunch of forks), to the breakpoints module, all processes share a
199 single address space, so all breakpoints set at the same address
200 are duplicates of each other, even breakpoints set in the data
201 space (e.g., call dummy breakpoints placed on stack). This allows
202 a simplification in the spaces implementation: we avoid caring for
203 a many-many links between address and program spaces. Either
204 there's a single address space bound to the program space
205 (traditional unix/uClinux), or, in the DICOS case, the address
206 space bound to the program space is mostly ignored. */
