2024-04-26objcopy: check input flavor before setting PE/COFF section alignmentJan Beulich1-0/+1
coff_section_data() and elf_section_data() use the same underlying field. The pointer being non-NULL therefore isn't sufficient to know that pei_section_data() can validly be used on the incoming object. Apparently in 64-bit-host builds the resulting memory corruption is benign, whereas in 32-bit-host builds a segmentation fault occurs upon de-referencing pei_section_data()'s return value.

2024-04-19binutils, objdump: Add --ctf-parent-sectionNick Alcock2-8/+61
This lets you examine CTF where the parent and child dicts are in entirely different sections, rather than in a CTF archive with members with different names. The linker doesn't emit ELF objects structured like this, but some third-party linkers may; it's also useful for objcopy-constructed files in some cases. (This is what the objdump --ctf-parent option used to do before commit 80b56fad5c99a8c9 in 2021. The new semantics of that option are much more useful, but that doesn't mean the old ones are never useful at all, so let's bring them back.) (I was specifically driven to add this by DTrace's obscure "ctypes" and "dtypes" options, which dump its internal, dynamically-generated dicts out to files for debugging purposes: there are two, one the parent of the other. Since they're in two separate files rather than a CTF archive and we have no tools that paste files together into archives, objdump wouldn't show them -- and even pasting them together into an ELF executable with objcopy didn't help, since objdump had no options that could be used to look in specific sections for the parent dict. With --ctf-parent-section, this sort of obscure use case becomes possible again. You'll never need it for the output of the normal linker.) binutils/ * doc/ctf.options.texi: Add --ctf-parent-section=. * objdump.c (dump_ctf): Implement it. (dump_bfd): Likewise. (main): Likewise.

2024-04-17aarch64: Remove asserts from operand qualifier decoders [PR31595]Victor Do Nascimento2-0/+4
Given that the disassembler should never abort when decoding (potentially random) data, assertion statements in the `get_*reg_qualifier_from_value' function family prove problematic. Consider the random 32-bit word W, encoded in a data segment and encountered on execution of `objdump -D <obj_name>'. If: (W & ~opcode_mask) == valid instruction Then before `print_insn_aarch64_word' has a chance to report the instruction as potentially undefined, an attempt will be made to have the qualifiers for the instruction's register operands (if any) decoded. If the relevant bits do not map onto a valid qualifier for the matched instruction-like word, an abort will be triggered and the execution of objdump aborted. As this scenario is perfectly feasible and, in light of the fact that objdump must successfully decode all sections of a given object file, it is not appropriate to assert in this family of functions. Therefore, we add a new pseudo-qualifier `AARCH64_OPND_QLF_ERR' for handling invalid qualifier-associated values and re-purpose the assertion conditions in qualifier-retrieving functions to be the predicate guarding the returning of the calculated qualifier type. If the predicate fails, we return this new qualifier and allow the caller to handle the error as appropriate. As these functions are called either from within `aarch64_extract_operand' or `do_special_decoding', both of which are expected to return non-zero values, it suffices that callers return zero upon encountering `AARCH64_OPND_QLF_ERR'. Ar present the error presented in the hypothetical scenario has been encountered in `get_sreg_qualifier_from_value', but the change is made to the whole family to keep the interface consistent.

2024-03-26Don't claim a fat IR object if no IR object should be claimedH.J. Lu1-3/+3
When the linker sees an input object containing nothing but IR during rescan, it should ignore it (LTO phase is over). But if the input object is a fat IR object, which has non-IR code as well, it should be used to resolve references as if it did not contain any IR at all.

2024-03-25bfd: make _bfd_section_size_insane part of the public APIAndrew Burgess1-1/+1
If a BFD user is making use of a function like bfd_get_section_contents to read a section into a pre-allocated buffer, then that BFD user might also want to make use of _bfd_section_size_insane prior to allocating the buffer they intend to use in order to validate that the buffer size that plan to allocate is sane. This commit makes _bfd_section_size_insane public, by renaming it to bfd_section_size_insane. I've updated the existing uses within bfd/, I don't believe this function is used outside of bfd/ currently. One place that I plan to make use of this function is in gdb/gdb_bfd.c, in the function gdb_bfd_get_full_section_contents. This change isn't included in this commit, but will come later if/when this has been merged into bfd.

2024-02-08PR 31283 windmc: Parse input correctly on big endian hostsRichard W.M. Jones4-4/+259
On big endian hosts (eg. s390x) the windmc tool fails to parse even trivial files: $ cat test.mc ; $ ./binutils/windmc ./test.mc In test.mc at line 1: parser: syntax error. In test.mc at line 1: fatal: syntax error. The tool starts by reading the input as Windows CP1252 and then converting it internally into an array of UTF-16LE, which it then processes as an array of unsigned short (typedef unichar). There are lots of ways this is wrong, but in the specific case of big endian machines the little endian pairs of bytes are byte-swapped. For example, the ';' character in the input above is first converted to UTF16-LE byte sequence { 0x3b, 0x00 }, which is then cast to unsigned short. On a big endian machine the first unichar appears to be 0x3b00. The lexer is unable to recognize this as the comment character ((unichar)';') and so parsing fails. The simple fix is to convert the input to UTF-16BE on big endian machines (and do the reverse conversion when writing the output).
