2024-12-02aarch64: GCS feature check in GNU note properties for input objectsSrinath Parvathaneni7-14/+224
This patch adds support for Guarded Control Stack in AArch64 linker. This patch implements the following: 1) Defines GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_GCS bit for GCS in GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND macro. 2) Adds readelf support to read and print the GCS feature in GNU properties in AArch64. Displaying notes found in: .note.gnu.property [ ]+Owner[ ]+Data size[ ]+Description GNU 0x00000010 NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 Properties: AArch64 feature: GCS 3) Adds support for the "-z gcs" linker option and document all the values allowed with this option (-z gcs[=always|never|implicit]) where "-z gcs" is equivalent to "-z gcs=always". When '-z gcs' option is omitted from the command line, it defaults to "implicit" and relies on the GCS feature marking in GNU properties. 4) Adds support for the "-z gcs-report" linker option and document all the values allowed with this option (-z gcs-report[=none|warning|error]) where "-z gcs-report" is equivalent to "-z gcs-report=warning". When this option is omitted from the command line, it defaults to "warning". The ABI changes adding GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_GCS to the GNU property GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND is merged into main and can be found in [1].

2024-12-02aarch64: rename BTI error/warning messageMatthieu Longo13-20/+20
The previous message for missing BTI feature in GNU properties was not very clear. The new message explains that a missing GNU property marking is lacking on this specific input.

2024-12-02aarch64: limit number of reported issues on missing GNU propertiesMatthieu Longo3-0/+35
This patch attempts to make the linker output more friendly for the developers by limiting the number of emitted warning/error messages related to BTI issues. Every time an error/warning related to BTI is emitted, the logger also increments the BTI issues counter. A batch of errors/warnings is limited to a maximum of 20 explicit errors/warnings. At the end of the merge, a summary of the total of errors/warning is given if the number exceeds the limit of 20 invidual messages.
2024-12-02aarch64: bugfix when finding 1st bfd input with GNU propertyMatthieu Longo1-1/+6
The current implementation of searching the first input BFD with GNU properties has a bug. The search was not filtering on object inputs belonging to the output link unit only, but was also including dynamic objects, BFD plugins, and linker-created files. This means that the initial initialization of the output properties were skewed, and warnings on input files that should have been emitted were not. This patch fixes the filtering to exclude the object input files not belonging to the output link unit, not having the same ELF class, and not the same target architecture.
2024-12-02aarch64: remove early exit when setting up GNU properties with partial linkingMatthieu Longo1-3/+0
There is an early exit in _bfd_aarch64_elf_link_setup_gnu_properties that is enabled when the output link unit is relocatable, i.e. ld generates an output file that can in turn serve as input to ld. (see ld manual, -r,--relocatable for more details). At this stage, the GNU properties have already been merged and errors or warnings (if any) have already been issued. However, OUTPROP has not been updated yet. Not updating OUTPROP means that implicits enablement of BTI PLTs via the GNU properties will be ignored for final links. Indeed, the enablement of BTI PLTs is checked inside _bfd_aarch64_add_call_stub_entries by looking up at gnu_property_aarch64_feature_1_and (OUTPROP). Since the final link does not happen in the case of partial linking, the behaviour with or without the early exit should be the same. Given that there is currently no comment for explain why the exit is there, and that there might in the future be cases were these properties affect relocatable links, it is preferrable to drop the early exit.

2024-12-02aarch64: refactoring _bfd_aarch64_elf_check_bti_reportMatthieu Longo3-11/+12
Before this patch, warnings were reported normally, and errors (introduced by a previous patch adding '-z bti-report' option) were logged as error but were not provoking a link failure. The root of the issue was a misuse of _bfd_error_handler to report the errors. Replacing _bfd_error_handler by info->callbacks->einfo, with the addition of the formatter '%X' for errors fixed the issue.
2024-12-02aarch64: refactoring _bfd_aarch64_elf_link_setup_gnu_properties (part 1)Matthieu Longo3-33/+41
Exposing the output GNU property as a parameter of _bfd_aarch64_elf_link_setup_gnu_properties seems to break the encapsulation. The output GNU property update should be part of the function that sets up the GNU properties. This patch removes the parameter, and perform the update of the GNU property on the output object inside the function.

2024-12-02aarch64: simplify condition in elfNN_aarch64_merge_gnu_propertiesMatthieu Longo1-4/+2
The current condition used to check if a GNU feature property is set on an input object before the merge is a bit confusing. (aprop && !<something about aprop>) || !aprop It seems easier to understand if it is changed as follows: (!aprop || !<something about aprop>)
2024-12-02aarch64: rename parameter of _bfd_aarch64_elf_merge_gnu_propertiesMatthieu Longo1-9/+9
The current naming of the AArch64 feature GNU property of the output bfd does not reflect what it is. This patch renames it from "prop" to "outprop".

2024-12-02gdb: handle DW_AT_entry_pc pointing at an empty sub-rangeAndrew Burgess4-1/+356
The test gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp creates a test binary called step-and-next-inline-no-header. This test includes a function `tree_check` which is inlined 3 times. When testing with some older versions of gcc (I've tried 8.4.0, 9.3.1) we see the following DWARF representing one of the inline instances of tree_check: <2><8d9>: Abbrev Number: 38 (DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine) <8da> DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x9ee> <8de> DW_AT_entry_pc : 0x401165 <8e6> DW_AT_GNU_entry_view: 0 <8e7> DW_AT_ranges : 0x30 <8eb> DW_AT_call_file : 1 <8ec> DW_AT_call_line : 52 <8ed> DW_AT_call_column : 10 <8ee> DW_AT_sibling : <0x92d> ... <1><9ee>: Abbrev Number: 46 (DW_TAG_subprogram) <9ef> DW_AT_external : 1 <9ef> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xe8): tree_check <9f3> DW_AT_decl_file : 1 <9f4> DW_AT_decl_line : 38 <9f5> DW_AT_decl_column : 1 <9f6> DW_AT_linkage_name: (indirect string, offset: 0x2f2): _Z10tree_checkP4treei <9fa> DW_AT_type : <0x9e8> <9fe> DW_AT_inline : 3 (declared as inline and inlined) <9ff> DW_AT_sibling : <0xa22> ... Contents of the .debug_ranges section: Offset Begin End ... 00000030 0000000000401165 0000000000401165 (start == end) 00000030 0000000000401169 0000000000401173 00000030 0000000000401040 0000000000401045 00000030 <End of list> ... Notice that one of the sub-ranges of tree-check is empty, this is the line marked 'start == end'. As the end address is the first address after the range, this range cover absolutely no code. But notice too that the DW_AT_entry_pc for the inline instance points at this empty range. Further, notice that despite the ordering of the sub-ranges, the empty range is actually in the middle of the region defined by the lowest address to the highest address. The ordering is not a problem, the DWARF spec doesn't require that ranges be in any particular order. However, this empty range is causing issues with GDB newly acquire DW_AT_entry_pc support. GDB already rejects, and has done for a long time, empty sub-ranges, after all, the DWARF spec is clear that such a range covers no code. The recent DW_AT_entry_pc patch also had GDB reject an entry-pc which was outside of the low/high bounds of a block. But in this case, the entry-pc value is within the bounds of a block, it's just not within any useful sub-range. As a consequence, GDB is storing the entry-pc value, and making use of it, but when GDB stops, and tries to work out which block the inferior is in, it fails to spot that the inferior is within tree_check, and instead reports the function into which tree_check was inlined. I've tested with newer versions of gcc (12.2.0 and 14.2.0) and with these versions gcc is still generating the empty sub-range, but now this empty sub-range is no longer the entry point. Here's the corresponding ranges table from gcc 14.2.0: Contents of the .debug_rnglists section: Table at Offset: 0: Length: 0x56 DWARF version: 5 Address size: 8 Segment size: 0 Offset entries: 0 Offset Begin End ... 00000021 0000000000401165 000000000040116f 0000002b 0000000000401040 (base address) 00000034 0000000000401040 0000000000401040 (start == end) 00000037 0000000000401041 0000000000401046 0000003a <End of list> ... The DW_AT_entry_pc is 0x401165, but this is not the empty sub-range, as a result, when GDB stops at the entry-pc, GDB will correctly spot that the inferior is in the tree_check function. The fix I propose here is, instead of rejecting entry-pc values that are outside the block's low/high range, instead reject entry-pc values that are not inside any of the block's sub-ranges. Now, GDB will ignore the prescribed entry-pc, and will instead select a suitable default entry-pc based on either the block's low-pc value, or the first address of the first range. I have extended the gdb.cp/step-and-next-inline.exp test to check this case, but this does depend on the compiler version being used (newer compilers will always pass, even without the fix). So I have also added a DWARF assembler test to cover this case. Reviewed-By: Kevin Buettner <kevinb@redhat.com>
2024-12-02x86: default to not accepting MPX insnsJan Beulich30-32/+38

2024-12-02x86: always set ISA_1_BASELINE property for 64-bit objectsJan Beulich22-23/+24
The baseline was, afaik, specifically chosen to align with the baseline ISA of x86-64. It therefore makes no sense to emit that property only conditionally; if anything it confuses tools analyzing the difference between generated object files, which may result from just added / changed / removed (entirely ISA-independent) code, without any change to the enabled extensions. Compilers, after all, are free to use these baseline "extensions" when generating 64-bit code. While changing the one testcase that needs adjustment, also correct its misleading name (to be in sync with the filename).
2024-12-02x86/COFF: support section-index relocations in insn operandsJan Beulich6-2/+63
On the grounds of the principle put down near the bottom of [1], along with image and section relative operations, let's also support as insn operands what .secidx is for on the data side (of course like elsewhere the reloc operator can then also be used for data generation, albeit a small tweak to x86_cons() is needed for this to work). [1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-November/137617.html
2024-12-02x86/COFF: support RVA (image-relative) relocations in insn operandsJan Beulich7-2/+154
As was pointed out in [1] compilers produce code using such constructs, and hence we'd better support this. In analogy to the .rva directive permit @rva to be used for this, and in analogy with other architectures (plus to not diverge from e.g. Clang's integrated assembler, albeit I haven't been able myself to confirm it knows this form) also permit @imgrel. While there also adjust the operand type specifier for the adjacent @secrel32 - 64-bit fields cannot be used with a 32-bit relocation. Further while there also deal with *-*-pe* in x86-64.exp, even if (right now) perhaps only for completeness. [1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2024-November/137548.html

Fix more potential buffer overflows, and correct trad-code.c and cisco-core.c where they should be using bfd_{z}alloc rather than bfd_{z}malloc. To stop buffer overflows with fuzzed objects that don't have a terminator on the core_file_failing_command string, this patch allocates an extra byte at the end of the entire header buffer rather than poking a NUL at the end of the name array (u_comm[] or similar) because (a) it's better to not overwrite the file data, and (b) it is possible that some core files make use of fields in struct user beyond the end of u_comm to extend the command name. The patch also changes some unnecessary uses of bfd_zalloc to bfd_alloc. There's not much point in clearing memeory that will shortly be completely overwritten.
