2023-12-05aarch64-elf: FAIL: indirect call stub to BTI stub relaxationAlan Modra1-26/+25
aarch64-elf fails the ld-aarch64/bfd-far-3.d test, due to the stubs being emitted in a different order to that of aarch64-linux. They are emitted in a different order due to stub names for local symbols having the section id in the stub name. aarch64-linux-ld generates one more section than aarch64-elf-ld. That section is .gnu.hash. So the stub names differ and are hashed to different slots in stub_hash_table. Fix this by running the test with --hash-style=sysv, and adjust expected output. I've also changed the branch over stubs emitted at the start of a group of stubs to not care about the symbol, for all groups not just the one that needed changing. * ld-aarch64/bti-far-3.d: Add --hash-style=sysv.

2023-12-04[gdb/doc] Escape the '@' symbols in generated texinfo files.Ciaran Woodward1-2/+4
'@' is a special symbol meaning 'command' in GNU texinfo. If the GDBINIT or GDBINIT_DIR path during configuration included an '@' character, the makeinfo command would fail, as it interpreted the '@' in the path as a start of a command when expanding the path in the docs. This patch simply escapes any '@' characters in the path, by replacing them with '@@'. This was already done for the bugurl variable. This was detected because the 'Jenkins' tool sometimes puts an '@' in the workspace path. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
2023-12-04Fix two buglets in .debug_names dumpingTom Tromey2-3/+13
While working on gdb's .debug_names writer, I found a couple of small bugs in binutils .debug_names dumping. First, the DWARF spec (section 6.1.1.4.6 Name Table) says: These two arrays are indexed starting at 1, [...] I think it is clearer for binutils to follow this, particularly because DW_IDX_parent refers to this number. Second, I think the handling of an empty hash table is slightly wrong. Currently the dumping code assumes there is always an array of hashes. However, section 6.1.1.4.5 Hash Lookup Table says: The optional hash lookup table immediately follows the list of type signatures. and then: The hash lookup table is actually two separate arrays: an array of buckets, followed immediately by an array of hashes. My reading of this is that the hash table as a whole is optional, and so the hashes will not exist in this case. (This also makes sense because the hashes are not useful without the buckets anyway.) This patch fixes both of these problems. FWIW I have some gdb patches in progress that change gdb both to omit the hash table and to use DW_IDX_parent. 2023-12-04 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * dwarf.c (display_debug_names): Handle empty .debug_names hash table.

2023-12-04s390: Support for jump visualization in disassemblyJens Remus5-45/+112
Add support for jump visualization for the s390 architecture in disassembly: objdump -d --visualize-jumps ... Annotate the (conditional) jump and branch relative instructions with information required for jump visualization: - jump: Unconditional jump / branch relative. - condjump: Conditional jump / branch relative. - jumpsr: Jump / branch relative to subroutine. Unconditional jump and branch relative instructions are annotated as jump. Conditional jump and branch relative instructions, jump / branch relative on count/index, and compare and jump / branch relative instructions are annotated as condjump. Jump and save (jas, jasl) and branch relative and save (bras, brasl) instructions are annotated as jumpsr (jump to subroutine). Provide instruction information required for jump visualization during disassembly. The instruction type is provided after determining the opcode. For non-code it is set to dis_noninsn. Otherwise it defaults to dis_nonbranch. No annotation is done for data reference instructions (i.e. instruction types dis_dref and dis_dref2). Note that the instruction type needs to be provided before printing of the instruction, as it is used in print_address_func() to translate the argument value into an address if it is assumed to be a PC-relative offset. Note that this is never the case on s390, as print_address_func() is only called with addresses and never with offsets. The target of the (conditional) jump and branch relative instructions is provided during print, when the PC relative operand is decoded. include/ * opcode/s390.h: Define opcode flags to annotate instruction class information for jump visualization: S390_INSTR_FLAG_CLASS_BRANCH, S390_INSTR_FLAG_CLASS_RELATIVE, S390_INSTR_FLAG_CLASS_CONDITIONAL, and S390_INSTR_FLAG_CLASS_SUBROUTINE. Define opcode flags mask S390_INSTR_FLAG_CLASS_MASK for above instruction class information.

2023-12-04gdb: Enable early init of thread pool sizeRichard Bunt6-6/+65
This commit enables the early initialization commands (92e4e97a9f5) to modify the number of threads used by gdb's thread pool. The motivation here is to prevent gdb from spawning a detrimental number of threads on many-core systems under environments with restrictive ulimits. With gdb before this commit, the thread pool takes the following sizes: 1. Thread pool size is initialized to 0. 2. After the maintenance commands are defined, the thread pool size is set to the number of system cores (if it has not already been set). 3. Using early initialization commands, the thread pool size can be changed using "maint set worker-threads". 4. After the first prompt, the thread pool size can be changed as in the previous step. Therefore after step 2. gdb has potentially launched hundreds of threads on a many-core system. After this change, step 2 and 3 are reversed so there is an opportunity to set the required number of threads without needing to default to the number of system cores first. There does exist a configure option (added in 261b07488b9) to disable multithreading, but this does not allow for an already deployed gdb to be configured. Additionally, the default number of worker threads is clamped at eight to control the number of worker threads spawned on many-core systems. This value was chosen as testing recorded on bugzilla issue 29959 indicates that parallel efficiency drops past this point. GDB built with GCC 13. No test suite regressions detected. Compilers: GCC, ACfL, Intel, Intel LLVM, NVHPC; Platforms: x86_64, aarch64. The scenario that interests me the most involves preventing GDB from spawning any worker threads at all. This was tested by counting the number of clones observed by strace: strace -e clone,clone3 gdb/gdb -q \ --early-init-eval-command="maint set worker-threads 0" \ -ex q ./gdb/gdb |& grep --count clone The new test relies on "gdb: install CLI uiout while processing early init files" developed by Andrew Burgess. This patch will need pushing prior to this change. The clamping was tested on machines with both 16 cores and a single core. "maint show worker-threads" correctly reported eight and one respectively.

2023-12-04gdb: install CLI uiout while processing early init filesAndrew Burgess1-0/+15
The next commit wants to use a 'show' command within an early initialisation file, despite these commands not being in the list of acceptable commands for use within an early initialisation file. The problem we run into is that the early initialisation files are processed before GDB has installed the top level interpreter. The interpreter is responsible to installing the default uiout (accessed through current_uiout), and as a result code that depends on uiout (e.g. 'show' commands) will end up dereferencing a nullptr, and crashing GDB. I did consider moving the interpreter installation before the early initialisation, and this would work fine except for the new DAP interpreter, which relies on having Python available during its initialisation. Which means we can't install the interpreter until after Python has been initialised, and the early initialisation handling has to occur before Python is setup -- that's the whole point of this feature (to allow customisation of how Python is setup). So, what I propose is that early within captured_main_1, we install a temporary cli_ui_out as the current_uiout. This will remain in place until the top-level interpreter is installed, at which point the temporary will be replaced. What this means is that current_uiout will no longer be nullptr, instead, any commands within an early initialisation file that trigger output, will perform that output in a CLI style. I propose that we don't update the documentation for early initialisation files, we leave the user advice as being only 'set' and 'source' commands are acceptable. But now, if a user does try a 'show' command, then instead of crashing, GDB will do something predictable. I've not added a test in this commit. The next commit relies on this patch and will serve as a test. Tested-By: Richard Bunt <richard.bunt@linaro.org>

2023-12-02Fix detach bug when lwp has exited/terminatedKevin Buettner5-8/+197
When using GDB on native linux, it can happen that, while attempting to detach an inferior, the inferior may have been exited or have been killed, yet still be in the list of lwps. Should that happen, the assert in x86_linux_update_debug_registers in gdb/nat/x86-linux-dregs.c will trigger. The line in question looks like this: gdb_assert (lwp_is_stopped (lwp)); For this case, the lwp isn't stopped - it's dead. The bug which brought this problem to my attention is one in which the pwntools library uses GDB to to debug a process; as the script is shutting things down, it kills the process that GDB is debugging and also sends GDB a SIGTERM signal, which causes GDB to detach all inferiors prior to exiting. Here's a link to the bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2192169 The following shell command mimics part of what the pwntools reproducer script does (with regard to shutting things down), but reproduces the bug much less reliably. I have found it necessary to run the command a bunch of times before seeing the bug. (I usually see it within 5-10 repetitions.) If you choose to try this command, make sure that you have no running "cat" or "gdb" processes first! cat </dev/zero >/dev/null & \ (sleep 5; (kill -KILL `pgrep cat` & kill -TERM `pgrep gdb`)) & \ sleep 1 ; \ gdb -q -iex 'set debuginfod enabled off' -ex 'set height 0' \ -ex c /usr/bin/cat `pgrep cat` So, basically, the idea here is to kill both gdb and cat at roughly the same time. If we happen to attempt the detach before the process lwp has been deleted from GDB's (linux native) LWP data structures, then the assert will trigger. The relevant part of the backtrace looks like this: #8 0x00000000008a83ae in x86_linux_update_debug_registers (lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/nat/x86-linux-dregs.c:146 #9 0x00000000008a862f in x86_linux_prepare_to_resume (lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/nat/x86-linux.c:81 #10 0x000000000048ea42 in x86_linux_nat_target::low_prepare_to_resume ( this=0x121eee0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>, lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/x86-linux-nat.h:70 #11 0x000000000081a452 in detach_one_lwp (lp=0x1873280, signo_p=0x7fff8ca3441c) at gdb/linux-nat.c:1374 #12 0x000000000081a85f in linux_nat_target::detach ( this=0x121eee0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>, inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/linux-nat.c:1450 #13 0x000000000083a23b in thread_db_target::detach ( this=0x1206ae0 <the_thread_db_target>, inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/linux-thread-db.c:1385 #14 0x0000000000a66722 in target_detach (inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/target.c:2526 #15 0x0000000000a8f0ad in kill_or_detach (inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/top.c:1659 #16 0x0000000000a8f4fa in quit_force (exit_arg=0x0, from_tty=0) at gdb/top.c:1762 #17 0x000000000070829c in async_sigterm_handler (arg=0x0) at gdb/event-top.c:1141 My colleague, Andrew Burgess, has done some recent work on other problems with detach. Upon hearing of this problem, he came up a test case which reliably reproduces the problem and tests for a few other problems as well. In addition to testing detach when the inferior has terminated due to a signal, it also tests detach when the inferior has exited normally. Andrew observed that the linux-native-only "checkpoint" command would be affected too, so the test also tests those cases when there's an active checkpoint. For the LWP exit / termination case with no checkpoint, that's handled via newly added checks of the waitstatus in detach_one_lwp in linux-nat.c. For the checkpoint detach problem, I chose to pass the lwp_info to linux_fork_detach in linux-fork.c. With that in place, suitable tests were added before attempting a PTRACE_DETACH operation. I added a few asserts at the beginning of linux_fork_detach and modified the caller code so that the newly added asserts shouldn't trigger. (That's what the 'pid == inferior_ptid.pid' check is about in gdb/linux-nat.c.) Lastly, I'll note that the checkpoint code needs some work with regard to background execution. This patch doesn't attempt to fix that problem, but it doesn't make it any worse. It does slightly improve the situation with detach because, due to the check noted above, linux_fork_detach() won't be called for the wrong inferior when there are multiple inferiors. (There are at least two other problems with the checkpoint code when there are multiple inferiors. See: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31065) This commit also adds a new test, gdb.base/process-dies-while-detaching.exp. Andrew Burgess is the primary author of this test case. Its design is similar to that of gdb.threads/main-thread-exit-during-detach.exp, which was also written by Andrew. This test checks that GDB correctly handles several cases that can occur when GDB attempts to detach an inferior process. The process can exit or be terminated (e.g. via SIGKILL) prior to GDB's event loop getting a chance to remove it from GDB's internal data structures. To complicate things even more, detach works differently when a checkpoint (created via GDB's "checkpoint" command) exists for the inferior. This test checks all four possibilities: process exit with no checkpoint, process termination with no checkpoint, process exit with a checkpoint, and process termination with a checkpoint.

2023-12-01Bail out of "attach" if a thread cannot be tracedTom Tromey4-13/+210
On Linux, threads are treated much like separate processes by the kernel. In particular, it's possible to ptrace just a single thread. If gdb tries to attach to a multi-threaded inferior, where a non-main thread is already being traced (e.g., by strace), then gdb will get into an infinite loop attempting to attach. This patch fixes this problem by having the attach fail if ptrace fails to attach to any thread of the inferior.

I said "seems like the intent is", because there appears to be a small bug. transfer_regset is made of two loops: foreach regcache_map_entry: foreach register described by the regcache_map_entry: if the register doesn't fit in the remainder of the buffer: break transfer register When stopping because we have reached the end of the buffer, the break only breaks out of the inner loop. This problem causes some failures when I run tests such as gdb.arch/aarch64-sme-core-3.exp (on AArch64 Linux, in qemu). This is partly due to aarch64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections failing to add a null terminator in its regcache_map_entry array, but I think there is still a problem in transfer_regset. The sequence to the crash is: - The `regcache_map_entry za_regmap` object built in aarch64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections does not have a null terminator. - When the target does not have a ZA register, aarch64_linux_collect_za_regset calls `regcache->collect_regset` with a size of 0 (it's actually pointless, but still it should work). - transfer_regset gets called with a buffer size of 0. - transfer_regset detects that the register to transfer wouldn't fit in 0 bytes, so it breaks out of the inner loop. - The outer loop tries to go read the next regcache_map_entry, but there isn't one, and we start reading garbage. Obviously, this would get fixed by making aarch64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections use a null terminator (which is what the following patch does). But I think that when detecting that there is not enough buffer left for the current register, transfer_regset should return, not only break out of the inner loop. This is a kind of contrived scenario, but imagine we have these two regcache_map_entry objects: - 2 registers of 8 bytes - 2 registers of 4 bytes For some reason, the caller passes a buffer of 12 bytes. transfer_regset will detect that the second 8 byte register does not fit, and break out of the inner loop. However, it will then go try the next regcache_map_entry. It will see that it can fit one 4 byte register in the remaining buffer space, and transfer it from/to there. This is very likely not an expected behavior, we wouldn't expect to read/write this sequence of registers from/to the buffer. In this example, whether passing a 12 bytes buffer makes sense or whether it is a size computation bug in the caller, we don't know, but I think that exiting as soon as a register doesn't fit is the sane thing to do.

2023-12-01Fix right shifts in mcore simulator on 64 bit hosts.Jeff Law3-2/+55
If the value to be shifted has the sign bit set, the sign bit would get copied into bits 32..63 of the temporary. Those would then be right shifted into the final value giving an incorrect final result. This was observed with upcoming GCC improvements which eliminate unnecessary extensions.
2023-12-01gdb/testsuite: fix completion tests when using READ1Guinevere Larsen1-12/+24
The commit a3da2e7e550c4fe79128b5e532dbb90df4d4f418 has introduced regressions when testing using the READ1 mechanism. The reason for that is the new failure path in proc test_gdb_complete_tab_unique, which looks for GDB suggesting more than what the test inputted, but not the correct answer, followed by a white space. Consider the following case: int foo(int bar, int baz); Sending the command "break foo<tab>" to GDB will return break foo(int, int) which easily fits the buffer in normal testing, so everything works, but when reading one character at a time, the test will find the partial "break foo(int, " and assume that there was a mistake, so we get a spurious FAIL. That change was added because we wanted to avoid forcing a completion failure to fail through timeout, which it had to do because there is no way to verify that the output is done, mostly because when I was trying to solve a different problem I kept getting reading errors and testing completion was frustrating. This commit implements a better way to avoid that frustration, by first testing gdb's complete command and only if that passes we will test tab completion. The difference is that when testing with the complete command, we can tell when the output is over when we receive the GDB prompt again, so we don't need to rely on timeouts. With this, the change to test_gdb_complete_tab_unique has been removed as that test will only be run and fail in the very unlikely scenario that tab completion is different than command completion.

Warning without knowing what's going to follow isn't useful, the more that appropriate warnings are emitted elsewhere in all cases.
