gdb: SPARC ADI support
The M7 processor supports an Application Data Integrity (ADI) feature that detects invalid data accesses. When software allocates data, it chooses a 4-bit version number, sets the version in the upper 4 bits of the 64-bit pointer to that data, and stores the 4-bit version in every cacheline of the object. Hardware saves the latter in spare bits in the cache and memory hierarchy. On each load and store, the processor compares the upper 4 VA (virtual address) bits to the cacheline's version. If there is a mismatch, the processor generates a version mismatch trap which can be either precise or disrupting. The trap is an error condition which the kernel delivers to the process as a SIGSEGV signal. The upper 4 bits of the VA represent a version and are not part of the true address. The processor clears these bits and sign extends bit 59 to generate the true address. Note that 32-bit applications cannot use ADI. This patch adds ADI support in gdb which allows the user to examine current version tags and assign new version tags in the program. It also catches and reports precise or disrupting memory corruption traps. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-08-07 Weimin Pan <weimin.pan@oracle.com> * sparc64-tdep.h: (adi_normalize_address): New export. * sparc-nat.h: (open_adi_tag_fd): New export. * sparc64-linux-nat.c: (open_adi_tag_fd): New function. * sparc64-linux-tdep.c: (SEGV_ACCADI, SEGV_ADIDERR, SEGV_ADIPERR) New defines.
