Fix x86-64 GNU/Linux crashes
Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-07/msg00162.html Debugging x86-64 GNU/Linux programs currently crashes GDB in tdesc_use_registers during gdbarch initialization: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0000000001093eaf in htab_remove_elt_with_hash (htab=0x2ef9fa0, element=0x26af960, hash=557151073) at src/libiberty/hashtab.c:728 728 if (*slot == HTAB_EMPTY_ENTRY) (top-gdb) p slot $1 = (void **) 0x0 (top-gdb) bt #0 0x0000000001093eaf in htab_remove_elt_with_hash (htab=0x2ef9fa0, element=0x26af960, hash=557151073) at src/libiberty/hashtab.c:728 #1 0x0000000001093e79 in htab_remove_elt (htab=0x2ef9fa0, element=0x26af960) at src/libiberty/hashtab.c:714 #2 0x00000000009121b0 in tdesc_use_registers (gdbarch=0x3001240, target_desc=0x2659cb0, early_data=0x2881cb0) at src/gdb/target-descriptions.c:1328 #3 0x000000000047c93e in i386_gdbarch_init (info=..., arches=0x0) at src/gdb/i386-tdep.c:8634 #4 0x0000000000818d5f in gdbarch_find_by_info (info=...) at src/gdb/gdbarch.c:5394 #5 0x00000000007198a8 in set_gdbarch_from_file (abfd=0x2f48250) at src/gdb/arch-utils.c:618 #6 0x00000000007f21cb in exec_file_attach (filename=0x7fffffffddb0 "/home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads", from_tty=1) at src/gdb/exec.c:380 #7 0x0000000000865c18 in catch_command_errors_const (command=0x7f1d83 <exec_file_attach(char const*, int)>, arg=0x7fffffffddb0 "/home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads", from_tty=1) at src/gdb/main.c:403 #8 0x00000000008669cf in captured_main_1 (context=0x7fffffffd860) at src/gdb/main.c:1035 #9 0x0000000000866de2 in captured_main (data=0x7fffffffd860) at src/gdb/main.c:1142 #10 0x0000000000866e24 in gdb_main (args=0x7fffffffd860) at src/gdb/main.c:1160 #11 0x000000000041312d in main (argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffd968) at src/gdb/gdb.c:32 The direct cause of the crash is that we tried to remove an element from the hash which supposedly exists, but does not. (htab_remove_elt shouldn't really crash in this case, but that's secondary.) The real problem is that early_data passed to tdesc_use_registers includes regs from a target description that is not the target_desc, which violates its assumptions. The registers in question are the fs_base/gs_base registers, added by amd64_init_abi: tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments, AMD64_FSBASE_REGNUM, "fs_base"); tdesc_numbered_register (feature, tdesc_data_segments, AMD64_GSBASE_REGNUM, "gs_base"); and that happens because amd64_linux_init_abi uses amd64_init_abi as helper, but they don't coordinate on which fallback tdesc to use. amd64_init_abi does: if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc)) tdesc = tdesc_amd64; and then adds the fs_base/gs_base registers of the "tdesc_amd64" tdesc to the tdesc_arch_data. After amd64_init_abi returns, amd64_linux_init_abi does: if (! tdesc_has_registers (tdesc)) tdesc = tdesc_amd64_linux; tdep->tdesc = tdesc; and we end up tdesc_amd64_linux installed in tdep->tdesc. The fix is to make sure that amd64_linux_init_abi and amd64_init_abi agree on default tdesc, by adding a "default tdesc" parameter to amd64_init_abi, instead of having amd64_init_abi hardcode a default. With this, amd64_init_abi creates the fs_base/gs_base registers using the tdesc_amd64_linux tdesc. Tested on x86-64 GNU/Linux, -m64. I don't have an x32 setup handy. Thanks to John Baldwin, Yao Qi and Simon Marchi for the investigation. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-07-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * amd64-darwin-tdep.c (x86_darwin_init_abi_64): Pass tdesc_amd64 as default tdesc. * amd64-dicos-tdep.c (amd64_dicos_init_abi): * amd64-fbsd-tdep.c (amd64fbsd_init_abi): * amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_init_abi): Pass tdesc_amd64_linux as default tdesc. Get final tdesc from the tdep. (amd64_x32_linux_init_abi): Pass tdesc_x32_linux as default tdesc. Get final tdesc from the tdep. * amd64-nbsd-tdep.c (amd64nbsd_init_abi): Pass tdesc_amd64 as default tdesc. * amd64-obsd-tdep.c (amd64obsd_init_abi): Likewise. * amd64-sol2-tdep.c (amd64_sol2_init_abi): Likewise. * amd64-tdep.c (amd64_init_abi): Add 'default_tdesc' parameter. Use it as default tdesc. (amd64_x32_init_abi): Add 'default_tdesc' parameter, and pass it down to amd_init_abi. No longer handle fallback tdesc here. * amd64-tdep.h (tdesc_x32): Declare. (amd64_init_abi, amd64_x32_init_abi): Add 'default_tdesc' parameter. * amd64-windows-tdep.c (amd64_windows_init_abi): Pass tdesc_amd64 as default tdesc.
