2024-11-18x86: VP2INTERSECT{D,Q} have mask register destination groupJan Beulich18-247/+296
Much like AVX512-{4FMAPS,4VNNIW} have a constraint on their register source, there's a constraint (need to be even) on the destination register here. Adjust "good" test cases accordingly, and add a new test case to check the warning.
2024-11-18x86: generalize "implicit quad group" handlingJan Beulich8-43/+79
We'll want to re-use it for VP2INTERSECT{D,Q}. While there add a testcase for the similarly affected AVX512-4VNNIW insns.
2024-11-18[gdb/contrib] Fix spellcheck.sh for bash < 5.1Tom de Vries1-2/+44
Since commit 5cb0406bb64 ("[gdb/contrib] Handle capitalized words in spellcheck.sh"), spellcheck.sh uses '${pat@u}' which is available starting bash 5.1, and consequently the script breaks with bash 4.4. Fix this by checking for the bash version, and using an alternative implementation for bash < 5.1. Tested on x86_64-linux.
2024-11-18ld: Support percent-encoded JSON in --package-metadataBenjamin Drung7-2/+140
Specifying the compiler flag `-Wl,--package-metadata=<JSON>` will not work in case the JSON contains a comma, because compiler drivers eat commas. Example: ``` $ echo "void main() { }" > test.c $ gcc '-Wl,--package-metadata={"type":"deb","os":"ubuntu"}' test.c /usr/bin/ld: cannot find "os":"ubuntu"}: No such file or directory collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ``` The quotation marks in the JSON value do not work well with shell nor make. Specifying the `--package-metadata` linker flag in a `LDFLAGS` environment variable might loose its quotation marks when it hits the final compiler call. So support percent-encoded and %[string] encoded JSON data in the `--package-metadata` linker flag. Percent-encoding is used because it is a standard, simple to implement, and does take too many additional characters. %[string] encoding is supported for having a more readable encoding.

2024-11-18gas: move had_errors() invocation in finishing of subsegsJan Beulich1-6/+6
Invoking this repeatedly in an inner loop is not only inefficient, but may lead to inconsistencies in e.g. the listings that the original comment author cared about. (Accept potential inconsistencies across distinct sections though, to cover all invocations of the function.)
2024-11-18ELF: SHF_STRINGS isn't really tied to SHF_MERGEJan Beulich4-25/+36
It's not overly useful without it, but the spec doesn't name any dependency between the two. People may want to use it for purely informational purposes, for example. Adjust, in particular, entity size processing to be engaged if either flag is set, as mandated by the spec.
2024-11-18ELF: SHF_MERGE vs SHT_NOBITSJan Beulich2-0/+4
bfd/merge.c puts in quite some effort to track mergable sections. That's all wasted for sections which don't have contents, as for them _bfd_write_merged_section() will never be called. With the combination not having any useful effect, also warn about this in gas.
2024-11-18gas/ELF: also reject merge entity size being zeroJan Beulich2-2/+2
This won't have any useful effect, so is at best marginally less bogus than a negative value. The change actually points out a flawed (for Arm) testcase: @ is a comment character there.

2024-11-17gdb: Update linkage name lookup function to allow mst_file_data/bss types.Ijaz, Abdul B6-12/+26
From the commit 667ed4b14ddaa9af196481f1757c0e517e80b6ed onward, instead of normal name GDB looks for the "jit_descriptor" linkage name in the JIT code initialization. Without this change, the function "lookup_minimal_symbol_linkage", only matches the non-static data. So in case jit_debugger is static type then setting up breakpoint in the JIT code fails. Issue is seen for the intel compilers, where jit_debug_descriptor has static type i.e. "mst_file_data". Hence lookup_minimal_symbol_linkage returns nullptr for it. So, in this case breakpoint does not hit in the JIT code. To resolve this, the commit introduces a new boolean argument to the lookup_minimal_symbol_linkage function. This argument allows the function to also match mst_file_data and mst_file_bss types when set to true. The function is called with this new argument set to true only from JIT code initialization handling, ensuring that the current behavior remains unchanged for other cases. Because handling of static types of data symbols for all cases result in regression for "gdb.base/print-file-var.exp" test. Example of minsym for the JIT code emitted by the intel compilers where lookup_minimal_symbol_linkage fails without this change because jit_debugger type is "mst_file_data".

Consider the following test-case: ... $ cat test.c int main (void) { return 0; } $ clang -g -gsplit-dwarf test.c -o test $ llvm-dwp -e test -o test.dwp ... This runs into a segmentation fault: ... $ gdb -q -batch test Fatal signal: Segmentation fault ... The segmentation fault happens because in read_dwo_str_index this line sets p to nullptr: ... const gdb_byte *p = reader->dwo_file->sections.str_offsets.buffer; ... while the following code expects it to point to some data. The section we're trying to read is: ... (gdb) p reader->dwo_file->sections.str_offsets $4 = {s = {section = 0xffffcc00a9d0, containing_section = 0xffffcc00a9d0}, buffer = 0x0, size = 28, virtual_offset = 0, readin = false, is_virtual = true} ... At first glance, the section is not readin, but actually it is. This is a virtual section, meaning part of a containing section: ... (gdb) p *reader->dwo_file->sections.str_offsets.s.containing_section $8 = {s = {section = 0xffffcc00cde8, containing_section = 0xffffcc00cde8}, buffer = 0xffffcc009650 "\030", size = 28, virtual_offset = 0, readin = true, is_virtual = false} ... which is readin. Fix this in create_dwp_v2_or_v5_section by initializing the buffer of the virtual section using the buffer of the containing section: ... result.buffer = section->buffer + offset; ... Unfortunately it's difficult to write a test-case for this. We'll have to teach the dwarf assembler to generate dwp files. Tested on aarch64-linux. This is a partial fix for PR symtab/31497.

2024-11-15gdb/testsuite: skip gdb.opt/inline-entry.exp for gcc 7 and olderAndrew Burgess1-0/+17
It was pointed out that the recently added gdb.opt/inline-entry.exp test would fail when run using gcc 7 and earlier, on an x86-64 target: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/9fe35ea1-d99b-444d-bd1b-e3a1f108dd77@suse.de Bernd Edlinger points out that, for gcc, the test relies on the -gstatement-frontiers work which was added in gcc 8.x: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/DU2PR08MB10263357597688D9D66EA745CE4242@DU2PR08MB10263.eurprd08.prod.outlook.com For gcc 7.x and older, without the -gstatement-frontiers work, the compiler uses DW_AT_entry_pc differently, which leads to a poorer debug experience. Here is the interesting source line from inline-entry.c: if ((global && bar (1)) || bar (2)) And here's some of the relevant disassembly output: Dump of assembler code for function main: 0x401020 <+0>: mov 0x3006(%rip),%eax (1) 0x401026 <+6>: test %eax,%eax (2) 0x401028 <+8>: mov 0x2ffe(%rip),%eax (3) 0x40102e <+14>: je 0x401038 <main+24> (4) 0x401030 <+16>: sub $0x1,%eax (5) 0x401033 <+19>: jne 0x40103d <main+29> (6) Lines (1), (2), and (4) represent the check of 'global'. However, line (3) is actually the first instruction for 'bar' which has been inlined. Lines (5) and (6) are also part of the first inlined 'bar' function. If the check of 'global' returns false then the first call to 'bar' should never happen, this is accomplished by the branch at (4) being taken. For gcc 8+, gcc generates a DW_AT_entry_pc with the value 0x401030, this is where GDB places a breakpoint for 'bar', and this address is after the branch at line (4), and so, if the call to 'bar' never happens, the breakpoint is never hit. For gcc 7 and older, gcc generates a DW_AT_entry_pc with the value 0x401028, which is the first address associated with the inline 'bar' function. Unfortunately, this address is also before the check of 'global' has completed, this means that GDB hits the 'bar' breakpoint before the inferior has decided if 'bar' should actually be called or not. I don't think there's really much GDB can do in the older gcc versions, we are placing the breakpoint at the entry point, and this is within bar. Given that this test does really depend on the newer gcc behaviour, I think the only sensible solution is to skip this test when an older version of gcc is being used. I've incorporated the check for -gstatement-frontiers support that Bernd suggested and now the test will be skipped for older versions of GCC. Approved-By: Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>

2024-11-14gdb/python: missing PyObject_IsTrue error check in bppy_initAndrew Burgess3-6/+19
As with the previous two commits, this commit fixes a location where we called PyObject_IsTrue without including an error check, this time in bppy_init. The 'qualified' argument is supposed to be a bool, the docs say: The optional QUALIFIED argument is a boolean that allows interpreting the function passed in 'spec' as a fully-qualified name. It is equivalent to 'break''s '-qualified' flag (*note Linespec Locations:: and *note Explicit Locations::). It's not totally clear that the only valid values are True or False, but I'm choosing to interpret the docs that way, and so I've added a PyBool_Type check during argument parsing. Now, if a non-bool is passed the user will get a TypeError during argument parsing. I've added a test to cover this case. This is a potentially breaking change to the Python API, but hopefully this will not impact too many people. I've added a NEWS entry to highlight this change.

2024-11-14gdb/python: missing PyObject_IsTrue error check in micmdpy_set_installedAndrew Burgess3-1/+28
Like the previous commit, I discovered that in micmdpy_set_installed we were calling PyObject_IsTrue, but not checking for a possible error value being returned. The micmdpy_set_installed function implements the gdb.MICommand.installed attribute, and the documentation indicates that this attribute should only be assigned a bool: This attribute is read-write, setting this attribute to 'False' will uninstall the command, removing it from the set of available commands. Setting this attribute to 'True' will install the command for use. So I propose that instead of using PyObject_IsTrue we use PyBool_Check, and if the new value fails this check we raise an error. We can then compare the new value to Py_True directly instead of calling PyObject_IsTrue. This is a potentially breaking change to the Python API, but hopefully this will not impact too many people, and the fix is pretty easy (switch to using a bool). I've added a NEWS entry to draw attention to this change. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
2024-11-14gdb/python: missing PyObject_IsTrue error check in py-arch.cAndrew Burgess3-8/+22
Building on the previous two commits, I was auditing our uses of PyObject_IsTrue looking for places where we were missing an error check. The gdb.Architecture.integer_type() function takes a 'signed' argument which should be a 'bool', and the docs do say: If SIGNED is not specified, it defaults to 'True'. If SIGNED is 'False', the returned type will be unsigned. Currently we use PyObject_IsTrue, but we are missing an error check. To fix this I've tightened the code to enforce the bool requirement at the point that the arguments are parsed. With that done I can remove the call to PyObject_IsTrue and instead compare to Py_True directly, the object in question will always be a PyBool_Type. However, we were testing that passing a non-bool argument for 'signed' is treated as Py_False, this was added with this commit: commit 90fe61ced1c9aa4afb263326e336330d15603fbf Date: Mon Nov 29 13:53:06 2021 +0000 gdb/python: don't use the 'p' format for parsing args which is when the PyObject_IsTrue call was added. Given that the docs do seem pretty clear that only True or False are suitable argument values, my proposal is that we just remove these tests and instead test that any non-bool argument value for 'signed' gives a TypeError. This is a breaking change to the Python API, however, my hope is that this is such a edge case that it will not cause too many problem. I've added a NEWS entry to highlight this change though.

2024-11-14gdb/python: remove some additional PyObject_IsTrue callsAndrew Burgess3-5/+11
After the previous commit I audited all our uses of PyObject_IsTrue looking for places where we were missing an error check. I did find some that are missing error checks in places where we really should have error checks, and I'll fix those in later commits. This commit however, focuses on those locations where PyObject_IsTrue is called, there is no error check, and the error check isn't really necessary because we already know that the object we are dealing with is of type PyBool_Type. Inline with the previous commit, in these cases I have removed the PyObject_IsTrue call, and replaced it with a comparison against Py_True. In one location where it is not obvious that the object we have is PyBool_Type I've added an assert, but in the other cases the comparison to Py_True immediately follows a PyBool_Check call, so an assert would be redundant. I've added a test for the gdb.Value.format_string styling argument being passed a non-bool value as this wasn't previously being tested, though this new test will pass before and after this commit. There should be no functional change after this commit. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>

2024-11-13gdb: stepping between inline functions with multiple rangesBernd Edlinger5-0/+644
I (Andrew) have split this small change from a larger patch which was posted here: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/AS1PR01MB9465608EBD5D62642C51C428E4922@AS1PR01MB9465.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com And I have written the stand alone test for this issue. The original patch included this paragraph to explain this change (I've fixed one typo in this text replacing 'program' with 'function'): ... it may happen that the infrun machinery steps from one inline range to another inline range of the same inline function. That can look like jumping back and forth from the calling function to the inline function, while really the inline function just jumps from a hot to a cold section of the code, i.e. error handling. The important thing that happens here is that both the outer function and the inline function must both have multiple ranges. When the inferior is within the inline function and moves from one range to another it is critical that the address we stop at is the start of a range in both the outer function and the inline function. The diagram below represents how the functions are split and aligned: (A) (B) bar: |------------| |---| foo: |------------------| |--------| The inferior is stepping through 'bar' and eventually reaches point (A) at which point control passes to point (B). Currently, when the inferior stops, GDB notices that both 'foo' and 'bar' start at address (B), and so GDB uses the inline frame mechanism to skip 'bar' and tells the user that the inferior is in 'foo'. However, as we were in 'bar' before the step then it makes sense that we should be in 'bar' after the step, and this is what the patch does. There are two tests using the DWARF assembler, the first checks the above situation and ensures that GDB reports 'bar' after the step. The second test is similar, but after the step we enter a new range where a different inline function starts, something like this: (A) (B) bar: |------------| baz: |---| foo: |------------------| |--------| In this case as we step at (A) and land at (B) we leave 'bar' and expect to stop in 'foo', GDB shouldn't automatically enter 'baz' as that is a completely different inline function. And this is, indeed, what we see. Co-Authored-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>
2024-11-13gdb: fix handling of DW_AT_entry_pc of inlined subroutinesAndrew Burgess6-17/+789
The entry PC for a DIE, e.g. an inline function, might not be the base address of the DIE. Currently though, in block::entry_pc(), GDB always returns the base address (low-pc or the first address of the first range) as the entry PC. This commit extends the block class to carry the entry PC as a separate member variable. Then the DWARF reader is extended to read and set the entry PC for the block. Now in block::entry_pc(), if the entry PC has been set, this is the value returned. If the entry-pc has not been set to a specific value then the old behaviour of block::entry_pc() remains, GDB will use the block's base address. Not every DIE will set the entry-pc, but GDB still needs to have an entry-pc for every block, so the existing logic supplies the entry-pc for any block where the entry-pc was not set. The DWARF-5 spec for reading the entry PC is a super-set of the spec as found in DWARF-4. For example, if there is no DW_AT_entry_pc then DWARF-4 says to use DW_AT_low_pc while DWARF-5 says to use the base address, which is DW_AT_low_pc or the first address in the first range specified by DW_AT_ranges if there is no DW_AT_low_pc. I have taken the approach of just implementing the DWARF-5 spec for everyone. There doesn't seem to be any benefit to deliberately ignoring a ranges based entry PC value for DWARF-4. If some naughty compiler has emitted that, then lets use it. Similarly, DWARF-4 says that DW_AT_entry_pc is an address. DWARF-5 allows an address or a constant, where the constant is an offset from the base address. I allow both approaches for all DWARF versions. There doesn't seem to be any downsides to this approach. I ran into an issue when testing this patch where GCC would have the DW_AT_entry_pc point to an empty range. When GDB parses the ranges any empty ranges are ignored. As a consequence, the entry-pc appears to be outside the address range of a block. The empty range problem is certainly something that we can, and should address, but that is not the focus of this patch, so for now I'm ignoring that problem. What I have done is added a check: if the DW_AT_entry_pc is outside the range of a block then the entry-pc is ignored, GDB will then fall-back to its default algorithm for computing the entry-pc. If/when in the future we address the empty range problem, these DW_AT_entry_pc attributes will suddenly become valid and GDB will start using them. Until then, GDB continues to operate as it always has. An early version of this patch stored the entry-pc within the block like this: std::optional<CORE_ADDR> m_entry_pc; However, a concern was raised that this, on a 64-bit host, effectively increases the size of block by 16-bytes (8-bytes for the CORE_ADDR, and 8-bytes for the std::optional's bool plus padding). If we remove the std::optional part and just use a CORE_ADDR then we need to have a "special" address to indicate if m_entry_pc is in use or not. I don't really like using special addresses; different targets can access different address ranges, even zero is a valid address on some targets. However, Bernd Edlinger suggested storing the entry-pc as an offset, and I think that will resolve my concerns. So, we store the entry-pc as a signed offset from the block's base address (the first address of the first range, or the start() address value if there are now ranges). Remember, ranges can be out of order, in which case the first address of the first range might be greater than the entry-pc. When GDB needs to read the entry-pc we can add the offset onto the blocks base address to recalculate it. With this done, on a 64-bit host, block only needs to increase by 8-bytes. The inline-entry.exp test was originally contributed by Bernd here: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/AS1PR01MB94659E4D9B3F4A6006CC605FE4922@AS1PR01MB9465.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com though I have made some edits, making more use of lib/gdb.exp functions, making the gdb_test output patterns a little tighter, and updating the test to run with Clang. I also moved the test to gdb.opt/ as that seemed like a better home for it. Co-Authored-By: Bernd Edlinger <bernd.edlinger@hotmail.de>
2024-11-13gas: add .cv_ucomp and .cv_scomp pseudo-directivesMark Harmstone8-1/+356
Add .cv_ucomp and .cv_scomp pseudo-directives for object files for Windows targets, which encode compressed CodeView integers according to the algorithm in CVCompressData in https://github.com/Microsoft/microsoft-pdb/blob/master/include/cvinfo.h. This is essentially Microsoft's answer to the LEB128, though used in far fewer places. CodeView uses these to encode the "binary annotations" in the S_INLINESITE symbol, which express the relationship between code offsets and line numbers in inlined functions. This has to be done in the assembler as GCC doesn't know how many bytes each instruction takes up. There's no equivalent for this for MSVC or LLVM, as in both cases the assembler and compiler are integrated. .cv_ucomp represents an unsigned big-endian integer between 0 and 0x1fffffff, taking up 1, 2, or 4 bytes: Value between 0 and 0x7f: 0aaaaaaa -> 0aaaaaaa (identity-mapped) Value between 0x80 and 0x3fff: 00aaaaaa bbbbbbbb -> 10aaaaaa bbbbbbbb Value between 0x4000 and 0x1fffffff: 000aaaaa bbbbbbbb ccccccccc dddddddd -> 110aaaaa bbbbbbbb ccccccccc dddddddd .cv_scomp represents a signed big-endian integer between -0xfffffff and 0xfffffff, encoded according to EncodeSignedInt32 in cvinfo.h. The absolute value of the integer is shifted left one bit, the LSB set for a negative value, and the result expressed as if it were a .cv_ucomp: cv_scomp(x) = cv_ucomp((abs(x) << 1) | (x < 0 ? 1 : 0))

2024-11-12gdb/testsuite: some cleanups in gdb.base/annota{1,3}.exp testsAndrew Burgess2-64/+32
Fedora GDB has, for years, carried an out of tree patch for the gdb.base/annota{1,3}.exp tests. The patch simply adds a call to 'set breakpoint pending off' near the start of each test. Normally GDB tests are written using gdb_test or gdb_test_multiple, with gdb_test being a wrapper around gdb_test_multiple. Inside gdb_test_multiple we add a test pattern which detects if GDB offers the user an interactive yes/no prompt and immediately fails the test. What this means is that if something goes wrong with a test like: gdb_test "break main" ".*" and GDB ends up offering this prompt: Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) then instead of hanging waiting for the test to timeout, DejaGNU will spot the interactive prompt and immediately fail the test. In the gdb.base/annota{1,3}.exp tests we turn on GDB's annotation mode, and many of the tests in these scripts are written using send_gdb and gdb_expect or gdb_expect_list. This is done because in the past, gdb_test_multiple and friends were hard-coded to use the "normal" GDB prompt, and these tests instead expect the annotated prompt. Specifically, gdb_test_multiple expects '$gdb_prompt $' as the full prompt, that is the value of $gdb_prompt followed by a single white space. The annotation tests do update the value of $gdb_prompt, but with annotations on there is no trailing whitespace, so gdb_test_multiple's default behaviour doesn't work, which is why the test scripts originally avoided using gdb_test_multiple. As a result none of the tests in these files would early exit if we got an interactive yes/no prompt, and instead we'd be relying on each test to timeout, which could take a while. However, gdb_test_multiple now accepts a -prompt argument, so we can modify the prompt we are looking for, which is neat. So, I started off by going through these tests an changing all of the tests that create a breakpoint to use gdb_test, passing the -prompt option to change the prompt. While doing that I noticed some other things that I could improve in these tests, I've cleaned up the use of standard_testfile, switched to use prepare_for_testing, and removed some redundant clean_restart and 'set height 0' calls (set height 0 is done within clean_restart, which is called by prepare_for_testing). I've updated some comments which said "we can't use gdb_test" to say "we can use gdb_test with -prompt option", and I've removed some commented out debug code (e.g. setting 'exp_internal'). Finally, I ran these two tests through check-all-boards, and spotted that annota1.exp failed when using a remote host. This is because one test checks for a full path to the binary in some output, and with a remote host the binary ends up being copied and the path is not as expected. I'm assuming that checking the full path is important, so I've disabled this test on remote host boards. After all these changes I checked using 'make check-all-boards' and there are no unexpected results on either of these tests.
