libctf, bfd: fix ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect opening symbol and string sections The code in ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect (which is the ultimate place where you end up if you use ctf_open to open a CTF file and pull in the ELF string and symbol tables) was written before it was possible to actually test it, since the linker was not written. Now it is, it turns out that the previous code was completely nonfunctional: it assumed that you could load the symbol table via bfd_section_from_elf_index (...,elf_onesymtab()) and the string table via bfd_section_from_elf_index on the sh_link. Unfortunately BFD loads neither of these sections in the conventional fashion it uses for most others: the symbol table is immediately converted into internal form (which is useless for our purposes, since we also have to work in the absence of BFD for readelf, etc) and the string table is loaded specially via bfd_elf_get_str_section which is private to bfd/elf.c. So make this function public, export it in elf-bfd.h, and use it from libctf, which does something similar to what bfd_elf_sym_name and bfd_elf_string_from_elf_section do. Similarly, load the symbol table manually using bfd_elf_get_elf_syms and throw away the internal form it generates for us (we never use it). BFD allocates the strtab for us via bfd_alloc, so we can leave BFD to deallocate it: we allocate the symbol table ourselves before calling bfd_elf_get_elf_syms, so we still have to free it. Also change the rules around what you are allowed to provide: It is useful to provide a string section but no symbol table, because CTF sections can legitimately have no function info or data object sections while relying on the ELF strtab for some of their strings. So allow that combination. v4: adjust to upstream changes. ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect's first parameter is potentially unused again (if BFD is not in use for this link due to not supporting an ELF target). v5: fix tabdamage. bfd/ * elf-bfd.h (bfd_elf_get_str_section): Add. * elf.c (bfd_elf_get_str_section): No longer static. libctf/ * ctf-open-bfd.c: Add <assert.h>. (ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect): Open string and symbol tables using techniques borrowed from bfd_elf_sym_name. (ctf_new_archive_internal): Improve comment. * ctf-archive.c (ctf_arc_close): Do not free the ctfi_strsect. * ctf-open.c (ctf_bufopen): Allow opening with a string section but no symbol section, but not vice versa.

libctf: allow the header to change between versions libctf supports dynamic upgrading of the type table as file format versions change, but before now has not supported changes to the CTF header. Doing this is complicated by the baroque storage method used: the CTF header is kept prepended to the rest of the CTF data, just as when read from the file, and written out from there, and is endian-flipped in place. This makes accessing it needlessly hard and makes it almost impossible to make the header larger if we add fields. The general storage machinery around the malloced ctf pointer (the 'ctf_base') is also overcomplicated: the pointer is sometimes malloced locally and sometimes assigned from a parameter, so freeing it requires checking to see if that parameter was used, needlessly coupling ctf_bufopen and ctf_file_close together. So split the header out into a new ctf_file_t.ctf_header, which is written out explicitly: squeeze it out of the CTF buffer whenever we reallocate it, and use ctf_file_t.ctf_buf to skip past the header when we do not need to reallocate (when no upgrading or endian-flipping is required). We now track whether the CTF base can be freed explicitly via a new ctf_dynbase pointer which is non-NULL only when freeing is possible. With all this done, we can upgrade the header on the fly and add new fields as desired, via a new upgrade_header function in ctf-open. As with other forms of upgrading, libctf upgrades older headers automatically to the latest supported version at open time. For a first use of this field, we add a new string field cth_cuname, and a corresponding setter/getter pair ctf_cuname_set and ctf_cuname: this is used by debuggers to determine whether a CTF section's types relate to a single compilation unit, or to all compilation units in the program. (Types with ambiguous definitions in different CUs have only one of these types placed in the top-level shared .ctf container: the rest are placed in much smaller per-CU containers, which have the shared container as their parent. Since CTF must be useful in the absence of DWARF, we store the names of the relevant CUs ourselves, so the debugger can look them up.) v5: fix tabdamage. include/ * ctf-api.h (ctf_cuname): New function. (ctf_cuname_set): Likewise. * ctf.h: Improve comment around upgrading, no longer implying that v2 is the target of upgrades (it is v3 now). (ctf_header_v2_t): New, old-format header for backward compatibility. (ctf_header_t): Add cth_cuname: this is the first of several header changes in format v3. libctf/ * ctf-impl.h (ctf_file_t): New fields ctf_header, ctf_dynbase, ctf_cuname, ctf_dyncuname: ctf_base and ctf_buf are no longer const. * ctf-open.c (ctf_set_base): Preserve the gap between ctf_buf and ctf_base: do not assume that it is always sizeof (ctf_header_t). Print out ctf_cuname: only print out ctf_parname if set. (ctf_free_base): Removed, ctf_base is no longer freed: free ctf_dynbase instead. (ctf_set_version): Fix spacing. (upgrade_header): New, in-place header upgrading. (upgrade_types): Rename to... (upgrade_types_v1): ... this. Free ctf_dynbase, not ctf_base. No longer track old and new headers separately. No longer allow for header sizes explicitly: squeeze the headers out on upgrade (they are preserved in fp->ctf_header). Set ctf_dynbase, ctf_base and ctf_buf explicitly. Use ctf_free, not ctf_free_base. (upgrade_types): New, also handle ctf_parmax updating. (flip_header): Flip ctf_cuname. (flip_types): Flip BUF explicitly rather than deriving BUF from BASE. (ctf_bufopen): Store the header in fp->ctf_header. Correct minimum required alignment of objtoff and funcoff. No longer store it in the ctf_buf unless that buf is derived unmodified from the input. Set ctf_dynbase where ctf_base is dynamically allocated. Drop locals that duplicate fields in ctf_file: move allocation of ctf_file further up instead. Call upgrade_header as needed. Move version-specific ctf_parmax initialization into upgrade_types. More concise error handling. (ctf_file_close): No longer test for null pointers before freeing. Free ctf_dyncuname, ctf_dynbase, and ctf_header. Do not call ctf_free_base. (ctf_cuname): New. (ctf_cuname_set): New. * ctf-create.c (ctf_update): Populate ctf_cuname. (ctf_gzwrite): Write out the header explicitly. Remove obsolescent comment. (ctf_write): Likewise. (ctf_compress_write): Get the header from ctf_header, not ctf_base. Fix the compression length: fp->ctf_size never counted the CTF header. Simplify the compress call accordingly.

libctf: make it compile for old glibc With a glibc before 2.9 (such as 2.8), there's <endian.h> but no htole64 or le64toh, so you get, compiling binutils for any target: libtool: link: gcc -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes \ -Wshadow -Werror -I/x/binutils/../zlib -g -O2 -o objdump \ objdump.o dwarf.o prdbg.o rddbg.o debug.o stabs.o rdcoff.o \ bucomm.o version.o filemode.o elfcomm.o ../opcodes/.libs/libopcodes.a \ ../libctf/libctf.a ../bfd/.libs/libbfd.a -L/x/obj/b/zlib -lz ../libiberty/libiberty.a -ldl ../libctf/libctf.a(ctf-archive.o): In function `ctf_archive_raw_iter_internal': /x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:543: undefined reference to `le64toh' /x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:550: undefined reference to `le64toh' /x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:551: undefined reference to `le64toh' /x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:551: undefined reference to `le64toh' /x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:554: undefined reference to `le64toh' ../libctf/libctf.a(ctf-archive.o):/x/src/libctf/ctf-archive.c:545: more undefined references to `le64toh' follow (etc) Also, I see no bswap_identity_64 *anywhere* except in libctf/swap.h (including current glibc) and I don't think calling an "identity"- function is better than just plain "#define foo(x) (x)" anyway. (Where does the idea of a bytestap.h bswap_identity_64 come from?) Speaking of that, I should mention that I instrumented the condition to observe that the WORDS_BIGENDIAN case passes too for a presumed big-endian target and glibc-2.8: there is a bswap_64 present for that version. Curiously, no test-case regressed with that instrumentation. For the record, constructing binary blobs using text source to run tests on, can be done by linking to --oformat binary (with most ELF targets), but I guess that's seen as unnecessary roundabout perhaps checking in binary files in the test-suite would be ok these days. [...] [nca: trimmed commit log slightly, updated changelog] v5: fix tabdamage. libctf/ * ctf-endian.h: Don't assume htole64 and le64toh are always present if HAVE_ENDIAN_H; also check if htole64 is defined.

bfd_section_* macros This large patch removes the unnecessary bfd parameter from various bfd section macros and functions. The bfd is hardly ever used and if needed for the bfd_set_section_* or bfd_rename_section functions can be found via section->owner except for the com, und, abs, and ind std_section special sections. Those sections shouldn't be modified anyway. The patch also removes various bfd_get_section_<field> macros, replacing their use with bfd_section_<field>, and adds bfd_set_section_lma. I've also fixed a minor bug in gas where compressed section renaming was done directly rather than calling bfd_rename_section. This would have broken bfd_get_section_by_name and similar functions, but that hardly mattered at such a late stage in gas processing. bfd/ * bfd-in.h (bfd_get_section_name, bfd_get_section_vma), (bfd_get_section_lma, bfd_get_section_alignment), (bfd_get_section_size, bfd_get_section_flags), (bfd_get_section_userdata): Delete.

libctf: deduplicate and sort the string table ctf.h states: > [...] the CTF string table does not contain any duplicated strings. Unfortunately this is entirely untrue: libctf has before now made no attempt whatsoever to deduplicate the string table. It computes the string table's length on the fly as it adds new strings to the dynamic CTF file, and ctf_update() just writes each string to the table and notes the current write position as it traverses the dynamic CTF file's data structures and builds the final CTF buffer. There is no global view of the strings and no deduplication. Fix this by erasing the ctf_dtvstrlen dead-reckoning length, and adding a new dynhash table ctf_str_atoms that maps unique strings to a list of references to those strings: a reference is a simple uint32_t * to some value somewhere in the under-construction CTF buffer that needs updating to note the string offset when the strtab is laid out. Adding a string is now a simple matter of calling ctf_str_add_ref(), which adds a new atom to the atoms table, if one doesn't already exist, and adding the location of the reference to this atom to the refs list attached to the atom: this works reliably as long as one takes care to only call ctf_str_add_ref() once the final location of the offset is known (so you can't call it on a temporary structure and then memcpy() that structure into place in the CTF buffer, because the ref will still point to the old location: ctf_update() changes accordingly). Generating the CTF string table is a matter of calling ctf_str_write_strtab(), which counts the length and number of elements in the atoms table using the ctf_dynhash_iter() function we just added, populating an array of pointers into the atoms table and sorting it into order (to help compressors), then traversing this table and emitting it, updating the refs to each atom as we go. The only complexity here is arranging to keep the null string at offset zero, since a lot of code in libctf depends on being able to leave strtab references at 0 to indicate 'no name'. Once the table is constructed and the refs updated, we know how long it is, so we can realloc() the partial CTF buffer we allocated earlier and can copy the table on to the end of it (and purge the refs because they're not needed any more and have been invalidated by the realloc() call in any case). The net effect of all this is a reduction in uncompressed strtab sizes of about 30% (perhaps a quarter to a half of all strings across the Linux kernel are eliminated as duplicates). Of course, duplicated strings are highly redundant, so the space saving after compression is only about 20%: when the other non-strtab sections are factored in, CTF sizes shrink by about 10%.

libctf: endianness fixes Testing of the first code to generate CTF_K_SLICEs on big-endian revealed a bunch of new problems in this area. Most importantly, the trick we did earlier to avoid wasting two bytes on padding in the ctf_slice_t is best avoided: because it leads to the whole file after that point no longer being naturally aligned, all multibyte accesses from then on must use memmove() to avoid unaligned access on platforms where that is fatal. In future, this is planned, but for now we are still doing direct access in many places, so we must revert to making ctf_slice_t properly aligned for storage in an array. Rather than wasting bytes on padding, we boost the size of cts_offset and cts_bits. This is still a waste of space (we cannot have offsets or bits in bitfields > 256) but it cannot be avoided for now, and slices are not so common that this will be a serious problem. A possibly-worse endianness problem fixed at the same time involves a codepath used only for foreign-endian, uncompressed CTF files, where we were not copying the actual CTF data into the buffer, leading to libctf reading only zeroes (or, possibly, uninitialized garbage). Finally, when we read in a CTF file, we copy the header and work from the copy. We were flipping the endianness of the header copy, and of the body of the file buffer, but not of the header in the file buffer itself: so if we write the file back out again we end up with an unreadable frankenfile with header and body of different endiannesses. Fix by flipping both copies of the header. include/ * ctf.h (ctf_slice_t): Make cts_offset and cts_bits unsigned short, so following structures are properly aligned. libctf/ * ctf-open.c (get_vbytes_common): Return the new slice size.

libctf: drop mmap()-based CTF data allocator This allocator has the ostensible benefit that it lets us mprotect() the memory used for CTF storage: but in exchange for this it adds considerable complexity, since we have to track allocation sizes ourselves for use at freeing time, note whether the data we are storing was ctf_data_alloc()ed or not so we know if we can safely mprotect() it... and while the mprotect()ing has found few bugs, it *has* been the cause of more than one due to errors in all this tracking leading to us mprotect()ing bits of the heap and stuff like that. We are about to start composing CTF buffers from pieces so that we can do usage-based optimizations on the strtab. This means we need realloc(), which needs nonportable mremap() and *more* tracking of the *original* allocation size, and the complexity and bureaucracy of all of this is just too high for its negligible benefits. Drop the whole thing and just use malloc() like everyone else. It knows better than we do when it is safe to use mmap() under the covers, anyway.

libctf: core type lookup Finally we get to the functions used to actually look up and enumerate properties of types in a container (names, sizes, members, what type a pointer or cv-qual references, determination of whether two types are assignment-compatible, etc). With a very few exceptions these do not work for types newly added via ctf_add_*(): they only work on types in read-only containers, or types added before the most recent call to ctf_update(). This also adds support for lookup of "variables" (string -> type ID mappings) and for generation of C type names corresponding to a type ID. libctf/ * ctf-decl.c: New file. * ctf-types.c: Likewise. * ctf-impl.h: New declarations. include/ * ctf-api.h (ctf_visit_f): New definition.

libctf: mmappable archives If you need to store a large number of CTF containers somewhere, this provides a dedicated facility for doing so: an mmappable archive format like a very simple tar or ar without all the system-dependent format horrors or need for heavy file copying, with built-in compression of files above a particular size threshold. libctf automatically mmap()s uncompressed elements of these archives, or uncompresses them, as needed. (If the platform does not support mmap(), copying into dynamically-allocated buffers is used.) Archive iteration operations are partitioned into raw and non-raw forms. Raw operations pass thhe raw archive contents to the callback: non-raw forms open each member with ctf_bufopen() and pass the resulting ctf_file_t to the iterator instead. This lets you manipulate the raw data in the archive, or the contents interpreted as a CTF file, as needed. It is not yet known whether we will store CTF archives in a linked ELF object in one of these (akin to debugdata) or whether they'll get one section per TU plus one parent container for types shared between them. (In the case of ELF objects with very large numbers of TUs, an archive of all of them would seem preferable, so we might just use an archive, and add lzma support so you can assume that .gnu_debugdata and .ctf are compressed using the same algorithm if both are present.) To make usage easier, the ctf_archive_t is not the on-disk representation but an abstraction over both ctf_file_t's and archives of many ctf_file_t's: users see both CTF archives and raw CTF files as ctf_archive_t's upon opening, the only difference being that a raw CTF file has only a single "archive member", named ".ctf" (the default if a null pointer is passed in as the name). The next commit will make use of this facility, in addition to providing the public interface to actually open archives. (In the future, it should be possible to have all CTF sections in an ELF file appear as an "archive" in the same fashion.) This machinery is also used to allow library-internal creators of ctf_archive_t's (such as the next commit) to stash away an ELF string and symbol table, so that all opens of members in a given archive will use them. This lets CTF archives exploit the ELF string and symbol table just like raw CTF files can. (All this leads to somewhat confusing type naming. The ctf_archive_t is a typedef for the opaque internal type, struct ctf_archive_internal: the non-internal "struct ctf_archive" is the on-disk structure meant for other libraries manipulating CTF files. It is probably clearest to use the struct name for struct ctf_archive_internal inside the program, and the typedef names outside.) libctf/ * ctf-archive.c: New. * ctf-impl.h (ctf_archive_internal): New type.

libctf: opening This fills in the other half of the opening/creation puzzle: opening of already-existing CTF files. Such files are always read-only: if you want to add to a CTF file opened with one of the opening functions in this file, use ctf_add_type(), in a later commit, to copy appropriate types into a newly ctf_create()d, writable container. The lowest-level opening functions are in here: ctf_bufopen(), which takes ctf_sect_t structures akin to ELF section headers, and ctf_simple_open(), which can be used if you don't have an entire ELF section header to work from. Both will malloc() new space for the buffers only if necessary, will mmap() directly from the file if requested, and will mprotect() it afterwards to prevent accidental corruption of the types. These functions are also used by ctf_update() when converting types in a writable container into read-only types that can be looked up using the lookup functions (in later commits). The files are always of the native endianness of the system that created them: at read time, the endianness of the header magic number is used to determine whether or not the file needs byte-swapping, and the entire thing is aggressively byte-swapped. The agggressive nature of this swapping avoids complicating the rest of the code with endianness conversions, while the native endianness introduces no byte-swapping overhead in the common case. (The endianness-independence code is also much newer than everything else in this file, and deserves closer scrutiny.) The accessors at the top of the file are there to transparently support older versions of the CTF file format, allowing translation from older formats that have different sizes for the structures in ctf.h: currently, these older formats are intermingled with the newer ones in ctf.h: they will probably migrate to a compatibility header in time, to ease readability. The ctf_set_base() function is split out for the same reason: when conversion code to a newer format is written, it would need to malloc() new storage for the entire ctf_file_t if a file format change causes it to grow, and for that we need ctf_set_base() to be a separate function. One pair of linked data structures supported by this file has no creation code in libctf yet: the data and function object sections read by init_symtab(). These will probably arrive soon, when the linker comes to need them. (init_symtab() has hardly been changed since 2009, but if any code in libctf has rotted over time, this will.) A few simple accessors are also present that can even be called on read-only containers because they don't actually modify them, since the relevant things are not stored in the container but merely change its operation: ctf_setmodel(), which lets you specify whether a container is LP64 or not (used to statically determine the sizes of a few types), ctf_import(), which is the only way to associate a parent container with a child container, and ctf_setspecific(), which lets the caller associate an arbitrary pointer with the CTF container for any use. If the user doesn't call these functions correctly, libctf will misbehave: this is particularly important for ctf_import(), since a container built against a given parent container will not be able to resolve types that depend on types in the parent unless it is ctf_import()ed with a parent container with the same set of types at the same IDs, or a superset. Possible future extensions (also noted in the ctf-hash.c file) include storing a count of things so that we don't need to do one pass over the CTF file counting everything, and computing a perfect hash at CTF creation time in some compact form, storing it in the CTF file, and using it to hash things so we don't need to do a second pass over the entire CTF file to set up the hashes used to go from names to type IDs. (There are multiple such hashes, one for each C type namespace: types, enums, structs, and unions.) libctf/ * ctf-open.c: New file. * swap.h: Likewise. include/ * ctf-api.h (ctf_file_close): New declaration.

libctf: creation functions The CTF creation process looks roughly like (error handling elided): int err; ctf_file_t *foo = ctf_create (&err); ctf_id_t type = ctf_add_THING (foo, ...); ctf_update (foo); ctf_*write (...); Some ctf_add_THING functions accept other type IDs as arguments, depending on the type: cv-quals, pointers, and structure and union members all take other types as arguments. So do 'slices', which let you take an existing integral type and recast it as a type with a different bitness or offset within a byte, for bitfields. One class of THING is not a type: "variables", which are mappings of names (in the internal string table) to types. These are mostly useful when encoding variables that do not appear in a symbol table but which some external user has some other way to figure out the address of at runtime (dynamic symbol lookup or querying a VM interpreter or something). You can snapshot the creation process at any point: rolling back to a snapshot deletes all types and variables added since that point. You can make arbitrary type queries on the CTF container during the creation process, but you must call ctf_update() first, which translates the growing dynamic container into a static one (this uses the CTF opening machinery, added in a later commit), which is quite expensive. This function must also be called after adding types and before writing the container out. Because addition of types involves looking up existing types, we add a little of the type lookup machinery here, as well: only enough to look up types in dynamic containers under construction. libctf/ * ctf-create.c: New file. * ctf-lookup.c: New file. include/ * ctf-api.h (zlib.h): New include.
