Remove uses of VLAs, replace with gdb::byte_vector. There might be more
in files that I can't compile, but it's difficult to tell without
actually compiling on all platforms.
Many thanks to the Linaro pre-commit CI for helping find some problems
with an earlier iteration of this patch.

This commit moves aarch64_linux_memtag_matches_p,
aarch64_linux_set_memtags, aarch64_linux_get_memtag, and
aarch64_linux_memtag_to_string hooks (plus the aarch64_mte_get_atag
function used by them), along with the setting of the memtag granule
size, from aarch64-linux-tdep.c to aarch64-tdep.c, making MTE available
on baremetal targets. Since the aarch64-linux-tdep.c layer inherits
these hooks from aarch64-tdep.c, there is no effective change for
aarch64-linux targets.
Helpers used both by aarch64-tdep.c and by aarch64-linux-tdep.c were
moved from arch/aarch64-mte-linux.{c,h} to new arch/aarch64-mte.{c,h}
files.

This commit introduces a new target hook, target_is_address_tagged,
which is used instead of the gdbarch_tagged_address_p gdbarch hook in
the upper layer (printcmd.c).
This change enables easy specialization of memory tagging address
check per target in the future. As target_is_address_tagged continues
to utilize the gdbarch_tagged_address_p hook, there is no change in
behavior for all the targets that use the new target hook (i.e., the
remote.c, aarch64-linux-nat.c, and corelow.c targets).
Just the gdbarch_tagged_address_p signature is changed for convenience,
since target_is_address_tagged takes the address to be checked as a
CORE_ADDR type.

This commit removes aarch64_linux_tagged_address_p from
aarch64_linux_memtag_matches_p. aarch64_linux_tagged_address_p checks if
an address is tagged (MTE) or not.
The check is redundant because aarch64_linux_memtag_matches_p is always
called from the upper layers (i.e. from printcmd.c via gdbarch hook
gdbarch_memtag_matches_p) after either gdbarch_tagged_address_p (that
already points to aarch64_linux_tagged_address_p) has been called or
after should_validate_memtags (that calls gdbarch_tagged_address_p at
the end) has been called, so the address is already checked. Hence:
a) in print_command_1, gdbarch_memtag_matches_p is called only after
should_validate_memtags is called, which checks the address at its end;
b) in memory_tag_check_command, gdbarch_memtag_matches_p is called only
after gdbarch_tagged_address_p is called directly.
Also, because after this change the address checking only happens at the
upper layer it now allows the address checking to be specialized easily
per target, via a target hook.

Remove check in parse_set_allocation_tag_input as it is redundant:
currently the check happens at the end of parse_set_allocation_tag_input
and also in set_memtag (called after parse_set_allocation_tag_input).
After it, move MTE address check out of set_memtag and add this check to
the upper layer, before set_memtag is called.
This is a preparation for using a target hook instead of a gdbarch hook
on MTE address checks.

We currently pass frames to function by value, as `frame_info_ptr`.
This is somewhat expensive:
- the size of `frame_info_ptr` is 64 bytes, which is a bit big to pass
by value
- the constructors and destructor link/unlink the object in the global
`frame_info_ptr::frame_list` list. This is an `intrusive_list`, so
it's not so bad: it's just assigning a few points, there's no memory
allocation as if it was `std::list`, but still it's useless to do
that over and over.
As suggested by Tom Tromey, change many function signatures to accept
`const frame_info_ptr &` instead of `frame_info_ptr`.
Some functions reassign their `frame_info_ptr` parameter, like:
void
the_func (frame_info_ptr frame)
{
for (; frame != nullptr; frame = get_prev_frame (frame))
{
...
}
}
I wondered what to do about them, do I leave them as-is or change them
(and need to introduce a separate local variable that can be
re-assigned). I opted for the later for consistency. It might not be
clear why some functions take `const frame_info_ptr &` while others take
`frame_info_ptr`. Also, if a function took a `frame_info_ptr` because
it did re-assign its parameter, I doubt that we would think to change it
to `const frame_info_ptr &` should the implementation change such that
it doesn't need to take `frame_info_ptr` anymore. It seems better to
have a simple rule and apply it everywhere.

corefiles
Due to the nature of the AArch64 SVE/SME extensions in GDB, each thread
can potentially have distinct target descriptions/gdbarches.
When loading a gcore-generated core file, at the moment GDB gives priority
to the target description dumped to NT_GDB_TDESC. Though technically correct
for most targets, it doesn't work correctly for AArch64 with SVE or SME
support.
The correct approach for AArch64/Linux is to either have per-thread target
description notes in the corefiles or to rely on the
gdbarch_core_read_description hook, so it can figure out the proper target
description for a given thread based on the various available register notes.
The former, although more correct, doesn't address the case of existing gdb's
that only output a single target description note.
This patch goes for the latter, and adds a new gdbarch hook to conditionalize
the use of the corefile target description note. The hook is called
use_target_description_from_corefile_notes.
The hook defaults to returning true, meaning targets will use the corefile
target description note. AArch64 Linux overrides the hook to return false
when it detects any of the SVE or SME register notes in the corefile.
Otherwise it should be fine for AArch64 Linux to use the corefile target
description note.
When we support per-thread target description notes, then we can augment
the AArch64 Linux hook to rely on those notes.

The Linux Kernel defines a separate context for the TPIDR2 register in a
signal frame. Handle this additional context in gdb so this register
gets restored properly when unwinding through signal frames.
The TPIDR2 register is closely related to SME, and is available when SME
support is reported.
This is tested by testcases that are available in a later patch in the series.

With SME, where you have two different vector lengths (vl and svl), it may be
the case that the current frame has a set of vector lengths (A) but the signal
context has a distinct set of vector lengths (B).
In this case, we may run into a situation where GDB attempts to use a gdbarch
created for set A, but it is really dealing with a frame that was using set
B.
This is problematic, specially with SME, because now we have a different
number of pseudo-registers and types that gets cached on creation of each
gdbarch variation.
For AArch64 we really need to be able to use the correct gdbarch for each
frame, and I noticed the signal frame (tramp-frame) doesn't have a settable
prev_arch field. So it ends up using the default frame_unwind_arch function
and eventually calling get_frame_arch (next_frame). That means the previous
frame will always have the same gdbarch as the current frame.
This patch first refactors the AArch64/Linux signal context code, simplifying
it and making it reusable for our purposes of calculating the previous frame's
gdbarch.
I introduced a struct that holds information that we have found in the signal
context, and with which we can make various decisions.
Finally, a small change to tramp-frame.c and tramp-frame.h to expose a
prev_arch hook that the architecture can set.
With this new field, AArch64/Linux can implement a hook that looks at the
signal context and infers the gdbarch for the previous frame.

While doing some SME work, I ran into the situation where the Z register
contents restored from a signal frame are incorrect if the signal frame
only contains fpsimd state and no sve state.
This happens because we only restore the v register values in that case,
and don't do anything for the z registers.
Fix this by initializing the z registers to 0 and then copying over the
overlapping part of the v registers to the z registers.

The gdbarch::max_insn_length field is used mostly to support displaced
stepping; it controls the size of the buffers allocated for the
displaced-step instruction, and is also used when first copying the
instruction, and later, when fixing up the instruction, in order to
read in and parse the instruction being stepped.
However, it has started to be used in other places in GDB, for
example, it's used in the Python disassembler API, and it is used on
amd64 as part of branch-tracing instruction classification.
The problem is that the value assigned to max_insn_length is not
always the maximum instruction length, but sometimes is a multiple of
that length, as required to support displaced stepping, see rs600,
ARM, and AArch64 for examples of this.
It seems to me that we are overloading the meaning of the
max_insn_length field, and I think that could potentially lead to
confusion.
I propose that we add a new gdbarch field,
gdbarch::displaced_step_buffer_length, this new field will do
exactly what it says on the tin; represent the required displaced step
buffer size. The max_insn_length field can then do exactly what it
claims to do; represent the maximum length of a single instruction.
As some architectures (e.g. i386, and amd64) only require their
displaced step buffers to be a single instruction in size, I propose
that the default for displaced_step_buffer_length will be the
value of max_insn_length. Architectures than need more buffer space
can then override this default as needed.
I've updated all architectures to setup the new field if appropriate,
and I've audited all calls to gdbarch_max_insn_length and switched to
gdbarch_displaced_step_buffer_length where appropriate.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.

metal/kernel mode addresses
At the moment GDB only handles pointer authentication (pauth) for userspace
addresses and if we're debugging a Linux-hosted program.
The Linux Kernel can be configured to use pauth instructions for some
additional security hardening, but GDB doesn't handle this well.
To overcome this limitation, GDB needs a couple things:
1 - The target needs to advertise pauth support.
2 - The hook to remove non-address bits from a pointer needs to be registered
in aarch64-tdep.c as opposed to aarch64-linux-tdep.c.
There is a patch for QEMU that addresses the first point, and it makes
QEMU's gdbstub expose a couple more pauth mask registers, so overall we will
have up to 4 pauth masks (2 masks or 4 masks):
pauth_dmask
pauth_cmask
pauth_dmask_high
pauth_cmask_high
pauth_dmask and pauth_cmask are the masks used to remove pauth signatures
from userspace addresses. pauth_dmask_high and pauth_cmask_high masks are used
to remove pauth signatures from kernel addresses.
The second point is easily addressed by moving code around.
When debugging a Linux Kernel built with pauth with an unpatched GDB, we get
the following backtrace:
#0 __fput (file=0xffff0000c17a6400) at /repos/linux/fs/file_table.c:296

With a patched GDB, we get something a lot more meaningful:

The address_significant gdbarch setting was introduced as a way to remove
non-address bits from pointers, and it is specified by a constant. This
constant represents the number of address bits in a pointer.
Right now AArch64 is the only architecture that uses it, and 56 was a
correct option so far.
But if we are using Pointer Authentication (PAuth), we might use up to 2 bytes
from the address space to store the required information. We could also have
cases where we're using both PAuth and MTE.
We could adjust the constant to 48 to cover those cases, but this doesn't
cover the case where GDB needs to sign-extend kernel addresses after removal
of the non-address bits.
This has worked so far because bit 55 is used to select between kernel-space
and user-space addresses. But trying to clear a range of bits crossing the
bit 55 boundary requires the hook to be smarter.
The following patch renames the gdbarch hook from significant_addr_bit to
remove_non_address_bits and passes a pointer as opposed to the number of
bits. The hook is now responsible for removing the required non-address bits
and sign-extending the address if needed.
While at it, make GDB and GDBServer share some more code for aarch64 and add a
new arch-specific testcase gdb.arch/aarch64-non-address-bits.exp.

With the AArch64 Scalable Matrix Extension we have a new TPIDR2 register, and
it will be added to the existing NT_ARM_TLS register set. Kernel patches are
being reviewed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20220818170111.351889-1-broonie@kernel.org/
From GDB's perspective, we handle it in a similar way to the existing TPIDR
register. But we need to consider cases of systems that only have TPIDR and
systems that have both TPIDR and TPIDR2.
With that in mind, the following patch adds the required code to support
TPIDR2 and turns the org.gnu.gdb.aarch64.tls feature into a
dynamically-generated target description as opposed to a static target
description containing only TPIDR.
That means we can remove the gdb/features/aarch64-tls.xml file and replace the
existing gdb/features/aarch64-tls.c auto-generated file with a new file that
dynamically generates the target description containing either TPIDR alone or
TPIDR and TPIDR2.
In the future, when *BSD's start to support this register, they can just
enable it as is being done for the AArch64 Linux target.
The core file read/write code has been updated to support TPIDR2 as well.
On GDBserver's side, there is a small change to the find_regno function to
expose a non-throwing version of it.
It always seemed strange to me how find_regno causes the whole operation to
abort if it doesn't find a particular register name. The patch moves code
from find_regno into find_regno_no_throw and makes find_regno call
find_regno_no_throw instead.
This allows us to do register name lookups to find a particular register
number without risking erroring out if nothing is found.
The patch also adjusts the feature detection code for aarch64-fbsd, since
the infrastructure is shared amongst all aarch64 targets. I haven't added
code to support TPIDR2 in aarch64-fbsd though, as I'm not sure when/if
that will happen.

Having two overloads of target_read_auxv that don't have the same goals
is confusing. Rename the one that reads from an explicit target_ops to

There's a flaw in the interaction of the auxv caching and the fact that
target_auxv_search allows reading auxv from an arbitrary target_ops
(passed in as a parameter). This has consequences as explained in this
thread:
https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/20220719144542.1478037-1-luis.machado@arm.com/
In summary, when loading an AArch64 core file with MTE support by
passing the executable and core file names directly to GDB, we see the
MTE info:
$ ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q aarch64-mte-gcore aarch64-mte-gcore.core
...
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
Memory tag violation while accessing address 0x0000ffff8ef5e000
Allocation tag 0x1
Logical tag 0x0.
#0 0x0000aaaade3d0b4c in ?? ()
(gdb)
But if we do it as two separate commands (file and core) we don't:
$ ./gdb -nx --data-directory=data-directory -q -ex "file aarch64-mte-gcore" -ex "core aarch64-mte-gcore.core"
...
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
#0 0x0000aaaade3d0b4c in ?? ()
(gdb)
The problem with the latter is that auxv data gets improperly cached
between the two commands. When executing the file command, auxv gets
first queried here, when loading the executable:

Here, target_auxv_search is called on the inferior's target stack. The
target stack only contains the exec target, so the query returns empty
auxv data. This gets cached for that inferior in `auxv_inferior_data`.
In its constructor (before it is pushed to the inferior's target stack),
the core_target needs to identify the right target description from the
core, and for that asks the gdbarch to read a target description from
the core file. Because some implementations of
gdbarch_core_read_description (such as AArch64's) need to read auxv data
from the core in order to determine the right target description, the
core_target passes a pointer to itself, allowing implementations to call
target_auxv_search it. However, because we have previously cached
(empty) auxv data for that inferior, target_auxv_search searched that
cached (empty) auxv data, not auxv data read from the core. Remember
that this data was obtained by reading auxv on the inferior's target
stack, which only contained an exec target.
The problem I see is that while target_auxv_search offers the
flexibility of reading from an arbitrary (passed as an argument) target,
the caching doesn't do the distinction of which target is being queried,
and where the cached data came from. So, you could read auxv from a
target A, it gets cached, then you try to read auxv from a target B, and
it returns the cached data from target A. That sounds wrong. In our
case, we expect to read different auxv data from the core target than
what we have read from the target stack earlier, so it doesn't make
sense to hit the cache in this case.
To fix this, I propose splitting the code paths that read auxv data from
an inferior's target stack and those that read from a passed-in target.
The code path that reads from the target stack will keep caching,
whereas the one that reads from a passed-in target won't. And since,
searching in auxv data is independent from where this data came from,
split the "read" part from the "search" part.
From what I understand, auxv caching was introduced mostly to reduce
latency on remote connections, when doing many queries. With the change
I propose, only the queries done while constructing the core_target
end up not using cached auxv data. This is fine, because there are just
a handful of queries max, done at this point, and reading core files is
local.
The changes to auxv functions are:
- Introduce 2 target_read_auxv functions. One reads from an explicit
target_ops and doesn't do caching (to be used in
gdbarch_core_read_description context). The other takes no argument,
reads from the current inferior's target stack (it looks just like a
standard target function wrapper) and does caching.
The first target_read_auxv actually replaces get_auxv_inferior_data,
since it became a trivial wrapper around it.
- Change the existing target_auxv_search to not read auxv data from the
target, but to accept it as a parameter (a gdb::byte_vector). This
function doesn't care where the data came from, it just searches in
it. It still needs to take a target_ops and gdbarch to know how to
parse auxv entries.
- Add a convenience target_auxv_search overload that reads auxv
data from the inferior's target stack and searches in it. This
overload is useful to replace the exist target_auxv_search calls that
passed the `current_inferior ()->top_target ()` target and keep the
call sites short.
- Modify parse_auxv to accept a target_ops and gdbarch to use for
parsing entries. Not strictly related to the rest of this change,
but it seems like a good change in the context.
Changes in architecture-specific files (tdep and nat):
- In linux-tdep, linux_get_hwcap and linux_get_hwcap2 get split in two,
similar to target_auxv_search. One version receives auxv data,
target and arch as parameters. The other gets everything from the
current inferior. The latter is for convenience, to avoid making
call sites too ugly.
- Call sites of linux_get_hwcap and linux_get_hwcap2 are adjusted to
use either of the new versions. The call sites in
gdbarch_core_read_description context explicitly read auxv data from
the passed-in target and call the linux_get_hwcap{,2} function with
parameters. Other call sites use the versions without parameters.
- Same idea for arm_fbsd_read_description_auxv.
- Call sites of target_auxv_search that passed
`current_inferior ()->top_target ()` are changed to use the
target_auxv_search overload that works in the current inferior.

This changes GDB to use frame_info_ptr instead of frame_info *
The substitution was done with multiple sequential `sed` commands:
sed 's/^struct frame_info;/class frame_info_ptr;/'
sed 's/struct frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g' - which left some
issues in a few files, that were manually fixed.
sed 's/\<frame_info \*/frame_info_ptr /g'
sed 's/frame_info_ptr $/frame_info_ptr/g' - used to remove whitespace
problems.
The changed files were then manually checked and some 'sed' changes
undone, some constructors and some gets were added, according to what
made sense, and what Tromey originally did

I built GDB for all targets on a x86-64/GNU-Linux system, and
then (accidentally) passed GDB a RISC-V binary, and asked GDB to "run"
the binary on the native target. I got this error:
(gdb) show architecture
The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "i386").
(gdb) file /tmp/hello.rv32.exe
Reading symbols from /tmp/hello.rv32.exe...
(gdb) show architecture
The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "riscv:rv32").
(gdb) run
Starting program: /tmp/hello.rv32.exe
../../src/gdb/i387-tdep.c:596: internal-error: i387_supply_fxsave: Assertion `tdep->st0_regnum >= I386_ST0_REGNUM' failed.
What's going on here is this; initially the architecture is i386, this
is based on the default architecture, which is set based on the native
target. After loading the RISC-V executable the architecture of the
current inferior is updated based on the architecture of the
executable.
When we "run", GDB does a fork & exec, with the inferior being
controlled through ptrace. GDB sees an initial stop from the inferior
as soon as the inferior comes to life. In response to this stop GDB
ends up calling save_stop_reason (linux-nat.c), which ends up trying
to read register from the inferior, to do this we end up calling
target_ops::fetch_registers, which, for the x86-64 native target,
calls amd64_linux_nat_target::fetch_registers.
After this I eventually end up in i387_supply_fxsave, different x86
based targets will end in different functions to fetch registers, but
it doesn't really matter which function we end up in, the problem is
this line, which is repeated in many places:
i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = (i386_gdbarch_tdep *) gdbarch_tdep (arch);
The problem here is that the ARCH in this line comes from the current
inferior, which, as we discussed above, will be a RISC-V gdbarch, the
tdep field will actually be of type riscv_gdbarch_tdep, not
i386_gdbarch_tdep. After this cast we are relying on undefined
behaviour, in my case I happen to trigger an assert, but this might
not always be the case.
The thing I tried that exposed this problem was of course, trying to
start an executable of the wrong architecture on a native target. I
don't think that the correct solution for this problem is to detect,
at the point of cast, that the gdbarch_tdep object is of the wrong
type, but, I did wonder, is there a way that we could protect
ourselves from incorrectly casting the gdbarch_tdep object?
I think that there is something we can do here, and this commit is the
first step in that direction, though no actual check is added by this
commit.
This commit can be split into two parts:
(1) In gdbarch.h and arch-utils.c. In these files I have modified
gdbarch_tdep (the function) so that it now takes a template argument,
like this:
template<typename TDepType>
static inline TDepType *
gdbarch_tdep (struct gdbarch *gdbarch)
{
struct gdbarch_tdep *tdep = gdbarch_tdep_1 (gdbarch);
return static_cast<TDepType *> (tdep);
}
After this change we are no better protected, but the cast is now
done within the gdbarch_tdep function rather than at the call sites,
this leads to the second, much larger change in this commit,
(2) Everywhere gdbarch_tdep is called, we make changes like this:
- i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = (i386_gdbarch_tdep *) gdbarch_tdep (arch);
+ i386_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = gdbarch_tdep<i386_gdbarch_tdep> (arch);
There should be no functional change after this commit.
In the next commit I will build on this change to add an assertion in
gdbarch_tdep that checks we are casting to the correct type.

Teach GDB how to dump memory tags for AArch64 when using the gcore command
and how to read memory tag data back from a core file generated by GDB
(via gcore) or by the Linux kernel.
The format is documented in the Linux Kernel documentation [1].
Each tagged memory range (listed in /proc/<pid>/smaps) gets dumped to its
own PT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_MTE segment. A section named ".memtag" is created for each
of those segments when reading the core file back.
To save a little bit of space, given MTE tags only take 4 bits, the memory tags
are stored packed as 2 tags per byte.
When reading the data back, the tags are unpacked.
I've added a new testcase to exercise the feature.
Build-tested with --enable-targets=all and regression tested on aarch64-linux
Ubuntu 20.04.

The process record code often emits unfiltered output. In some cases,
this output ought to go to gdb_stderr (but see below). In other
cases, the output is guarded by a logging variable and so ought to go
to gdb_stdlog. This patch makes these changes.
Note that in many cases, the output to stderr is followed by a
"return -1", which is how process record indicates an error. It seems
to me that calling error here would be preferable, because, in many
cases, that's all the caller does when it sees a -1. However, I
haven't made this change.
This is part of PR gdb/7233.

I would like to be able to use non-trivial types in gdbarch_tdep types.
This is not possible at the moment (in theory), because of the one
definition rule.
To allow it, rename all gdbarch_tdep types to <arch>_gdbarch_tdep, and
make them inherit from a gdbarch_tdep base class. The inheritance is
necessary to be able to pass pointers to all these <arch>_gdbarch_tdep
objects to gdbarch_alloc, which takes a pointer to gdbarch_tdep.
These objects are never deleted through a base class pointer, so I
didn't include a virtual destructor. In the future, if gdbarch objects
deletable, I could imagine that the gdbarch_tdep objects could become
owned by the gdbarch objects, and then it would become useful to have a
virtual destructor (so that the gdbarch object can delete the owned
gdbarch_tdep object). But that's not necessary right now.
It turns out that RISC-V already has a gdbarch_tdep that is
non-default-constructible, so that provides a good motivation for this
change.
Most changes are fairly straightforward, mostly needing to add some
casts all over the place. There is however the xtensa architecture,
doing its own little weird thing to define its gdbarch_tdep. I did my
best to adapt it, but I can't test those changes.

The bug fixed by this [1] patch was caused by an out-of-bounds access to
a value's content. The code gets the value's content (just a pointer)
and then indexes it with a non-sensical index.
This made me think of changing functions that return value contents to
return array_views instead of a plain pointer. This has the advantage
that when GDB is built with _GLIBCXX_DEBUG, accesses to the array_view
are checked, making bugs more apparent / easier to find.
This patch changes the return types of these functions, and updates
callers to call .data() on the result, meaning it's not changing
anything in practice. Additional work will be needed (which can be done
little by little) to make callers propagate the use of array_view and
reap the benefits.

The r_ldsomap field is specific to Solaris (part of librtld_db), and

to set r_ldsomap_offset to -1 and use them for Linux targets.

Continuing.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
Memory tag violation while accessing address 0x0500fffff7ff8000
Allocation tag 0x1.
