2024-08-26Change message when reaching end of reverse history.Guinevere Larsen12-33/+57
In a record session, when we move backward, GDB switches from normal execution to simulation. Moving forward again, the emulation continues until the end of the reverse history. When the end is reached, the execution stops, and a warning message is shown. This message has been modified to indicate that the forward emulation has reached the end, but the execution can continue as normal, and the recording will also continue. Before this patch, the warning message shown in that case was the same as in the reverse case. This meant that when the end of history was reached in either backward or forward emulation, the same message was displayed: "No more reverse-execution history." This message has changed for these two cases. Backward emulation: "Reached end of recorded history; stopping. Backward execution from here not possible." Forward emulation: "Reached end of recorded history; stopping. Following forward execution will be added to history." The reason for this change is that the initial message was deceiving, for the forward case, making the user believe that forward debugging could not continue.

2024-08-26LoongArch: Fix wrong relocation handling of symbols defined by PROVIDELulu Cai7-1/+44
If the symbol defined by PROVIDE in the link script is not in SECTION, the symbol is placed in the ABS section. The linker considers that symbols in the ABS section do not need to calculate PC relative offsets. Symbols in ABS sections should calculate PC relative offsets normally based on relocations.

Since bfd_section for .strtab isn't set, print the section index instead. Also, don't return NULL on this error as that results in multiple mmap/read of the string table. (We could return NULL if we arranged to set sh_size zero first, but just what we do with fuzzed object files is of no concern, and terminating the table might make a faulty object file usable.)

2024-08-23gdb/dwarf2: Check for null abbrev_info ptrAaron Merey2-0/+58
A corrupt debuginfo file can result in a null abbrev_info pointer being passed to cooked_indexer::scan_attributes. This pointer is set to nullptr by peek_die_abbrev when an abbrev of 0 is found. There is no check for whether the abbrev pointer is null and SIGSEGV occurs when attempting to dereference the pointer. An abbrev of 0 normally indicates that the corresponding DIE is a null entry, but scan_attributes expects a non-null DIE. Fix this by throwing an error in cooked_indexer::scan_attributes when peek_die_abbrev returns a nullptr in order to avoid scan_attributes calling itself with a null abbrev.

2024-08-23x86: simplify SAE checkingJan Beulich1-12/+10
To determine whether SAE (with or without StaticRounding) is permitted there's no need to iterate over all operands. Even less so starting at the front (thus needlessly inspecting immediate operands as well). Leverage the pattern across all relevant templates and check only the last two operands, and also only for non-512 ones (besides the non-LIG case that was already checked for).

2024-08-23RISC-V: process rs_align_code also when relaxingJan Beulich3-38/+58
riscv_handle_align() runs after all input was processed. Whether relaxation is enabled for any particular piece of code is not recorded anywhere. (This issue was even "worked around" in a gas testcase, which is adjusted accordingly.) Furthermore, as demonstrated by an ld testcase, tail padding in an object file's executable sections depended on whether relaxation was enabled at the end of assembly: NOPs were emitted only when relaxation was off; zeroes were emitted with relaxation enabled. (It could probably be either way, but it should be independent of relaxation state at the end of assembly. Except of course write.c, in a comment ahead of #define-ing SUB_SEGMENT_ALIGN(), explicitly says "proper nop-filling".) While re-indenting, drop the "odd_padding" variable. It's used exactly once, and having the actual expression right in the if() is imo helping readers to understand what the intentions are. While touching the ld testcase, also tighten the expectations for the addresses of the two symbols: The last two digits have to have fixed values.

The dwarf error happens as follows: - a cutu_reader A is created for CU@0xb2 - using cutu_reader A, the cooked index reader starts indexing dies, with m_per_cu set to CU@0xb2 - while indexing it scans the attributes of DIE 0xbf and encounters the inter-CU reference to DIE 0xe8 - it calls cooked_indexer::ensure_cu_exists, which creates a cutu_reader B for CU@0xdb and returns it - using cutu_reader B, it continues scanning attributes of DIE 0xe8 and encounters the inter-CU reference to DIE 0xd4 - it calls cooked_indexer::ensure_cu_exists, the problematic bit is triggered and cutu_reader B is returned - using cutu_reader B, it continues scanning attributes of DIE 0xd4 - this goes wrong because: - the attributes of the DIE are encoded using the abbreviation table at offset 0x6c, while - the decoding is done using cutu_reader B which uses the abbreviation table at offset 0x86. Fix this by removing the problematic if clause. Since cutu_reader A is not preserved in m_index_storage, cooked_indexer::ensure_cu_exists cannot find it there and creates a duplicate cutu_reader C for CU@0xb2. Fix this in process_psymtab_comp_unit by preserving the cutu_reader A as well in m_index_storage. Tested on x86_64-linux and aarch64-linux.

2024-08-21gdb: some global_block improvementsSimon Marchi4-64/+68
Some refactors around struct global_block, all in one patch because they all tie in together and are relatively trivial. - Make block::global_block() and blockvector::global_block() return `global_block *`, instead of `block *`. There is no cost in doing so, and it's a bit more precise. Callers of these methods that need a `global_block *` won't need to cast themselves. - Add some block::as_global_block methods, as a way to get a `global_block *` from a `block *` when you know it's a global block. This is basically a static cast with an assert. - Move set_compunit_symtab to global_block, since it requires the block to be a global block anyway. Rename to just `set_compunit` (I think that compunit_symtab should just be renamed compunit...). - Move the get_block_compunit_symtab free function to be a method of global_block. - Make global_block::compunit_symtab private and rename. - Simplify initialize_block_iterator.

2024-08-20gdb/testsuite: track nested caching proc callsAndrew Burgess1-9/+75
It was pointed out in this email: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/97973506-79f4-4216-9c0b-57401b3933f5@arm.com that this commit: commit 0726729d344fecf98f8d138e688e77201cc3cece Date: Mon Jun 3 13:56:54 2024 +0100 gdb/testsuite: track if a caching proc calls gdb_exit or not had broken some AArch64 tests. What is going on is that there are two caching procs: allow_aarch64_sme_tests aarch64_initialize_sme_information the allow_aarch64_sme_tests proc makes a call to aarch64_initialize_sme_information, but aarch64_initialize_sme_information is also called from other non-caching procs, like aarch64_supports_sme_svl. Both of the caching procs mentioned above compile and run a helper program, and both of them call gdb_exit. After the above commit, the first call to any caching proc, the body of which calls gdb_exit, will result in a gdb_exit call even if the body is not executed and the result is fetched from the cache. What was observed is that in the first test script allow_aarch64_sme_tests is called, the body of this caching proc is run which calls gdb_exit. Then allow_aarch64_sme_tests calls aarch64_initialize_sme_information, the body of which is run and gdb_exit is called again. The results from both procs are added to the cache. In the next test script allow_aarch64_sme_tests is called. This results in a cache hit, but gdb_exit is also called as this is the first call in this second test script. Later in the test script aarch64_supports_sme_svl is called which calls aarch64_initialize_sme_information. As this is the first call to aarch64_initialize_sme_information in this second test script (remember the body of allow_aarch64_sme_tests was never run) then gdb_exit is called. This call to gdb_exit is new after the above commit and is unexpected. I think the idea behind the above commit is still sound. If the call to allow_aarch64_sme_tests was removed from the second test script then we would want the extra gdb_exit call as this would expose a real bug in the test. The problem is that after the above commit the nested nature of the caching proc calls becomes important: a call to allow_aarch64_sme_tests should mean that we've also called aarch64_initialize_sme_information, and that relationship isn't currently captured. So in this commit I'm adding another field to the global gdb_data_cache (in lib/cache.exp). This new field is 'also_called'. For every caching proc we populate this field with a list of names, these are the names of any nested caching procs that are called when the body of a caching proc is executed. Now when we get a cache hit in gdb_data_cache we mark every proc in the 'also_called' list as having been called. This means that further calls to these procs will no longer trigger a gdb_exit call.

2024-08-19gdb: fix a target: prefix issue in find_separate_debug_fileAndrew Burgess2-35/+7
Following on from the previous commit, this commit fixes the two KFAIL in gdb.base/sysroot-debug-lookup.exp when not using the native-extended-gdbserver board. The failures in this test, when using the 'unix' board, are logged as bug PR gdb/31804. The problem appears to be caused by the use of the child_path function in find_separate_debug_file. What happens on the 'unix' board is that the file is specified to GDB with a target: prefix, however GDB spots that the target filesystem is local to GDB and so opens the file without a target: prefix. When we call into find_separate_debug_file the DIR and CANON_DIR arguments, which are computed from the objfile_name() no longer have a target: prefix. However, in this test if the file was opened with a target: prefix, then the sysroot also has a target: prefix. When child_path is called it looks for a common prefix between CANON_DIR (from the objfile_name) and the sysroot. However, the sysroot still has the target: prefix, which means the child_path() call fails and returns nullptr. What I think we need to do is this: if the sysroot has a target: prefix, and the target filesystem is local to GDB, then we should strip the target: prefix from the sysroot, just as we do when opening a file (see gdb_bfd_open in gdb_bfd.c). Now, when we make the child_path() call neither the sysroot nor CANON_DIR will have a target: prefix, the child_path() call will succeed, and GDB will correctly find the debug information. There is just one remaining issue, the last path we look in when searching for debug information is built by starting with the sysroot, then adding the debug directory, see this line: debugfile = path_join (target_prefix_str, root.c_str (), debugdir.get (), base_path, debuglink); The target_prefix_str is set to target: if DIR has a target: prefix, and DIR should have a target: prefix if the file we're looking for was opened with a target: prefix. However, in our case the file was in a local filesystem so GDB stripped the prefix off. The sysroot however, does have the target: prefix, and the test is expecting to see GDB look within a file with the target: prefix. Given that the above line is about looking within a sub-directory of the sysroot, I think we should not be stripping the target: prefix off the sysroot path (as we do when building ROOT), instead, we should, in this case, not use TARGET_PREFIX_STR, and instead just use GDB's sysroot as it is (in this case with the target: prefix). With these fixes in place I now see no failures when using the 'unix', 'native-gdbserver', or 'native-extended-gdbserver' boards with this test, and the KFAILs can be removed.

What happens on the 'unix' board is that the file is specified to GDB with a target: prefix, however GDB spots that the target filesystem is local to GDB and so opens the file without a target: prefix. When we call into find_separate_debug_file the DIR and CANON_DIR arguments, which are computed from the objfile_name() no longer have a target: prefix. However, in this test if the file was opened with a target: prefix, then the sysroot also has a target: prefix. When child_path is called it looks for a common prefix between CANON_DIR (from the objfile_name) and the sysroot. However, the sysroot still has the target: prefix, which means the child_path() call fails and returns nullptr. What happens in the native-extended-gdbserver case is that GDB doesn't see the target filesystem as local. Now the filename retains the target: prefix, which means that in the child_path() call both the sysroot and the CANON_DIR have a target: prefix, and so the child_path() call succeeds. This allows GDB to progress, try some additional paths, and then find the debug information. So, this commit changes gdb.base/sysroot-debug-lookup.exp to expect the test to succeed when using the native-extended-gdbserver protocol. This leaves one KFAIL when using the native-extended-gdbserver board, we find the debug information but (apparently) find it in the wrong file. What's happening is that when GDB builds the filename for the debug information we end up with a '//' string as a directory separator, the test regexp only expects a single separator. Instead of just fixing the test regexp, I've updated the path_join function in gdbsupport/pathstuff.{cc,h} to allow for absolute paths to appear in the argument list after the first argument. This means it's now possible to do this: auto result = path_join ("/a/b/c", "/d/e/f"); gdb_assert (result == "/a/b/c/d/e/f"); Additionally I've changed path_join so that it avoids adding unnecessary directory separators. In the above case when the two paths were joined GDB only added a single separator between 'c' and 'd'. But additionally, if we did this: auto result = path_join ("/a/b/c/", "/d/e/f"); gdb_assert (result == "/a/b/c/d/e/f"); We'd still only get a single separator. With these changes to path_join I can now make use of this function in find_separate_debug_file. With this done I now have no KFAIL when using the native-extended-gdbserver board. After this commit we still have 2 KFAIL when not using the native-gdbserver and unix boards, these will be addressed in the next commit.

2024-08-19gdb: Fix printing frame when reversing out of a recursive call with clangGuinevere Larsen1-1/+2
Commit bf2813aff8f2988ad3d53e819a0415abf295c91f introduced some logic to not refresh the step frame id if it detects that the inferior is reverse stepping out of a recursive call, so that we would still print frame information once the inferior stops. However, that logic was overly specific, and wouldn't be hit for inferiors compiled with clang because clang adds line table entries that aren't statements, making process_event_stop_test go through a different branch on the relevant if statement. Fix this by not making the code that detects "reversing out of a recursion" an else clause to the previous if, but a standalone if block. Approved-by: Kevin Buettner <kevinb@redhat.com>

This is caused by a race between the handling of an event, and the "inferior 1" command. In the passing case, the event is handled first. During which prune_inferiors is called, but it can't remove inferior 2, because it's still the current one. In the failing case, the "inferior 1" command is handled first. Then during handling of the event, prune_inferiors is called, and it can remove inferior 2 because it's no longer the current one. This looks like a test-case issue to me, but ISTM that we can do better: by calling prune_inferiors asap, at the end of the "inferior 1" command, we stabilize the moment when the inferior is removed: ... (gdb) inferior 1^M [Switching to inferior 1 [process 5199] (py-progspace-events)]^M [Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 0xf77d0ce0 (LWP 5199))]^M 28 { /* Nothing. */ }^M FreeProgspaceEvent: <gdb.Progspace object at 0xabaf03a0>^M (gdb) PASS: gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp: inferior 1 ...

2024-08-16gdb: Fix gdb.python/py-record-btrace.exp testFelix Willgerodt1-4/+11
My previous patch commit 8958aefd34200c8d2cd6e81bba32198468789c62 (HEAD) Author: Felix Willgerodt <felix.willgerodt@intel.com> Date: Mon Feb 25 15:30:29 2019 +0100 python: Add clear() to gdb.Record. exposed a clear function for btrace data in python and added some tests for it. That caused a regression (PR 32086) when recording with bts. This is reproducible even without my patch, when adding "maintenance btrace clear" to the test. When comparing the instructions that get recorded in both cases, the traces are almost identical, just that the first 3 instructions are missing. Before clear: (gdb) record instruction-history 1,100 1 0x0000555555555163 <main+12>: movl $0x0,-0x4(%rbp) 2 0x000055555555516a <main+19>: movl $0x0,-0x8(%rbp) 3 0x0000555555555171 <main+26>: jmp 0x555555555184 <main+45> 4 0x0000555555555184 <main+45>: cmpl $0x63,-0x4(%rbp) 5 0x0000555555555188 <main+49>: jle 0x555555555173 <main+28> 6 0x0000555555555173 <main+28>: mov -0x8(%rbp),%eax 7 0x0000555555555176 <main+31>: mov %eax,%edi ...

The GDB manual describes this behaviour already: maint btrace clear Discard the branch trace data. The data will be fetched anew and the branch trace will be recomputed when needed. This implicitly truncates the branch trace to a single branch trace buffer. When updating branch trace incrementally, the branch trace available to GDB may be bigger than a single branch trace buffer. The test with BTS is updating the recorded trace incrementally. After the clear, the buffer of raw trace data available is not enough to recompute the whole trace as it was before the clear(), and the first 3 instructions are missing. As increasing the buffer size for BTS didn't help, I propose to fix the test by moving the testing of clear to the end of the test.
