Complement commit 9d862524f6 ("MIPS: Verify the ISA mode and alignment

with some handwritten code lacking `.insn' annotation for labels used as
branch targets and code produced by older versions of GCC which suffers
from the issue with branches to code that has been optimized away,
addressed with GCC commit 242424 ("MIPS/GCC: Mark trailing labels with

With my debug build of Python (--with-pydebug), many tests fails because
of the same issue. Python scripts are loaded by the tests using this
pattern:
(gdb) python exec (open ('file.py').read ())
This causes Python to output this warning:
__main__:1: ResourceWarning: unclosed file <_io.TextIOWrapper name='file.py' mode='r' encoding='ANSI_X3.4-1968'>
and the test to fail because of that extra output. Instead of using the
open + read + exec trick which leaks the file and causes the warning,
why not just source the files?
(gdb) source file.py

overly complicated).

Exercising aarch64-elf with a custom debug stub i noticed a few failures in

These failures don't show up with gdbserver or native gdb on Linux because
they don't export any memory maps, therefore the vector of memory regions is
empty.
Outside of that scenario, we can't guarantee the absence of memory regions
reported by the target upon a connection. In our particular target, we
provide a memory map and the memory regions vector ceases to be empty.
With a non-empty memory regions vector, manipulating memory regions will cause
gdb to be more verbose and output text. For example:
memattr.c:require_user_regions
/* Otherwise, let the user know how to get back. */
if (from_tty)
warning (_("Switching to manual control of memory regions; use "
"\"mem auto\" to fetch regions from the target again."));
memattr.c:create_mem_region
if ((lo >= n->lo && (lo < n->hi || n->hi == 0))
|| (hi > n->lo && (hi <= n->hi || n->hi == 0))
|| (lo <= n->lo && ((hi >= n->hi && n->hi != 0) || hi == 0)))
{
printf_unfiltered (_("overlapping memory region\n"));
return;
}
In my particular case i got both of the above messages.
In order to fix this, i've moved the delete_memory proc from
gdb.base/memattr.exp to a new file lib/memory.exp and made lib/gdb.exp
load that file.
For both gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp and gdb.base/memattr.exp the
patch clears all existing memory regions after running to main. That way we
are guaranteed to have a clean state for memory regions so the tests can
exercise whatever they want and have an expected output pattern.

The all-architectures-1.exp test case currently yields 66 FAILs on s390x,
because the "set architecture" command fails each time when attempting to
switch to "cris", "crisv32", or "cris:common_v10_v32". Actually, the
command would succeed if the endianness had been set to "little" before.
Instead, the test case sets the endianness to "auto", which results in
"big" on s390x.
So on x86_64:
(gdb) set endian auto
The target endianness is set automatically (currently little endian)
(gdb) set architecture cris
warning: A handler for the OS ABI "AIX" is not built into this configuration
of GDB. Attempting to continue with the default cris settings.
The target architecture is assumed to be cris
But on s390x:
(gdb) set endian auto
The target endianness is set automatically (currently big endian)
(gdb) set architecture cris
Architecture `cris' not recognized.
See also the test results for s390x and ppc64be:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2016-q4/msg05150.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2016-q4/msg05713.html
Indeed, cris_gdbarch_init in cris-tdep.c returns a failure unless the
user-specified endianness is "little". Other architectures usually ignore
the user-specified endianness and return a valid gdbarch anyhow, even if
they can not really cope with the given endianness.
This patch removes the check in cris-tdep.c and forces little-endian byte
order instead.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cris-tdep.c (cris_gdbarch_init): Remove check for
info.byte_order and force it to BFD_ENDIAN_LITTLE.
Changes in v2:
- Renamed arch-specific files to insn-reverse-<arch>.c.
- Adjusted according to reviews.
This patch prepares things for an upcoming testcase for record/replay support
on x86. As is, gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.c is divided into sections guarded by
a few #if blocks, and right now it only handles arm/aarch64.
If we move forward with requiring more tests for record/replay on different
architectures, i think this has the potential to become cluttered with a lot
of differing arch-specific code in the same file.
I've broken up the main file into other files with arch-specific bits
(insn-reverse-<arch>.c). The main file will hold the generic pieces that will
take care of calling the tests.
The arch-specific c files are then included at the top of the generic c file.
I've also added a generic initialize function since we need to run pre-test
checks on x86 to make sure the rdrand/rdseed instructions are supported,
otherwise we will run into a SIGILL.
The arch-specific files will implement their own initialize function with
whatever makes sense. Right now the aarch64 and arm files have an empty
initialization function.
Does this look reasonable?

When loading a core without an executable like so:
$ gdb --core core
for example often the gdbarch won't contain the
iterate_over_regset_sections method. For example on ARM.
This will generate a call to get_core_register_section with a NULL regset
like at corelow.c:628
get_core_register_section (regcache, NULL, ".reg", 0, 0, "general-purpose", 1);
However a check for REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE in get_core_register_section
assumes that regset is != NULL thus leading to a crash with this backtrace:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x000000000065907b in get_core_register_section
(regcache=regcache@entry=0x2c26260, regset=regset@entry=0x0,
name=name@entry=0xdbf7b2 ".reg", min_size=min_size@entry=0,
which=which@entry=0, human_name=human_name@entry=0xdbac28
"general-purpose", required=1)
at ../../gdb/corelow.c:542
#1 0x0000000000659b70 in get_core_registers (ops=<optimized out>,

#2 0x000000000076e5fb in target_fetch_registers
(regcache=regcache@entry=0x2c26260, regno=regno@entry=15)
at ../../gdb/target.c:3590
Note that commit: f962539ad2 ("Warn if core file register
section is larger than expected") introduced this issue.
Thus releases > 7.8.2 are affected.
Also, this would have been caught by gdb.base/corefile.exp but the
problem is that this triggers only if the core dump is missing some data
so that it's not recognized as a linux core dump, or it's not a linux core
dump and the core file register section is larger than expected.
So if you just create a core and read it on linux with ARM the osabi is
detected properly and iterate_over_regset_sections is present and so the
problem is not triggered.
Thus creating a linux test for this with a crafted core that meets the
problem requirements is non-trivial.
This patch fixes this crash by adding a check for regset existence before
running the condition.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* corelow.c (get_core_register_section): Check for regset
existence before checking for REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE.
Hi,
GDB calls some APIs from opcodes to do disassembly and provide some
call backs. This model makes troubles on C++ exception unwinding,
because GDB is a C++ program, and opcodes is still compiled as C.
As we can see, frame #10 and #12 are C++, while #frame 11 is C,
#10 0x0000000000544228 in memory_error (err=TARGET_XFER_E_IO, memaddr=<optimized out>) at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/corefile.c:237
#11 0x00000000006b0a54 in print_insn_aarch64 (pc=0, info=0xffffffffeeb0) at ../../binutils-gdb/opcodes/aarch64-dis.c:3185
#12 0x0000000000553590 in gdb_pretty_print_insn (gdbarch=gdbarch@entry=0xbbceb0, uiout=uiout@entry=0xbc73d0, di=di@entry=0xffffffffeeb0,
insn=0xffffffffed40, insn@entry=0xffffffffed90, flags=flags@entry=0,
C++ exception unwinder can't go across frame #11 unless it has
unwind table. However, C program on many architectures doesn't
have it in default. As a result, GDB aborts, which is described
in PR 20939.
This is not the first time we see this kind of problem. We've
had a commit 89525768cd
"Propagate GDB/C++ exceptions across readline using sj/lj-based TRY/CATCH".
We can fix the disassembly bug in a similar way, this is the option one.
Since opcodes is built with gdb, we fix this problem in a different
way as we did for the same issue with readline. Instead of throwing
exception in dis_asm_memory_error, we record the failed memory
address, and throw exception when GDB returns from opcodes disassemblers.

This patch adds a unit test about memory error occurs on reading
memory, and check MEMORY_ERROR exception is always thrown.

* disasm-selftests.c (memory_error_test): New function.
(_initialize_disasm_selftests): Register memory_error_test.
This patch adds one unit test, which disassemble one instruction for
every gdbarch if available. The test needs one valid instruction of
each gdbarch, and most of them are got from breakpoint instruction.
For the rest gdbarch whose breakpoint instruction isn't a valid
instruction, I copy one instruction from the gas/testsuite/gas/
directory.
I get the valid instruction of most gdbarch except ia64, mep, mips,
tic6x, and xtensa. People familiar with these arch should be easy
to extend the test.
In order to achieve "do the unit test for every gdbarch", I add
selftest-arch.[c,h], so that we can register a function pointer,
which has one argument gdbarch. selftest.c will iterate over all
gdbarches to call the registered function pointer.

opcodes/mep-dis.c:mep_print_insn has already had the code to
handle the case when info->section is NULL,
/* Picking the right ISA bitmask for the current context is tricky. */
if (info->section)

}
else /* sid or gdb */
{
}
so that we can still cal print_insn_mep even section can't be found.
On the other hand, user can disassemble an arbitrary address which
doesn't map to any section at all.

This patch addes class gdb_disassembler, and refactor
code to use it. The gdb_disassembler object is saved
in disassember_info.application_data. However,
disassember_info.application_data is already used by
gdb for arm, mips spu, and scm-disasm. In arm and mips,
.application_data is gdbarch, but we can still get gdbarch
from gdb_disassember.
The use of application_data in spu is a little bit
complicated. It creates its own disassemble_info, and
save spu_dis_asm_data in .application_data. This will
overwrite the pointer to gdb_disassembler, so we need
to find another place to save spu_dis_asm_data. I
extend disassemble_info, and put "id" there.

stream. The null stream can be used in multiple places. It is
used in gdb_insn_length, and the following patches will use it too.

This patch adds a DW_OP_implicit_value in dwarf assembler, and uses
dwarf assembler in implptr-64bit.exp. Using dwarf assembler in
implptr-64bit.exp exposes some limitations in dwarf assembler,
- some variables are not evaluated in the caller's context, so we
can not pass variable to assembler, like this
Dwarf::assemble $asm_file {
cu {
version $dwarf_version
addr_size $addr_size
is_64 $is_64
} {
}
and
{DW_AT_type :$struct_label "DW_FORM_ref$ref_addr_size"}
this limitation is fixed by adding "uplevel" and "subst".
- dwarf assembler doesn't emit DW_FORM_ref_addr for label referencing.
this limitation is fixed by adding a new character "%",
{ type %$int_label }
this means we want to emit DW_FORM_ref_addr for label referencing.
- we can't set the form of label referencing offset in dwarf assembler.
Nowadays, dwarf assembler guesses the form of labels, which is
DW_FORM_ref4. However, in implptr-64bit.exp, both DW_FORM_ref4
and DW_FORM_ref8 is used (see REF_ADDR in implptr-64bit.S). This
patch adds the flexibility of setting the form of label reference.
Both of them below are valid,
{DW_AT_type :$struct_label}
{DW_AT_type :$struct_label DW_FORM_ref8}
the former form is the default DW_FORM_ref4.
I compared the .debug_info of objects without and with this patch
applied. There is no changes except abbrev numbers.

* lib/dwarf.exp (Dwarf): Handle character "%". Evaluate some

DW_OP_GNU_implicit_pointer refers to a DIE with an offset of different
sizes in different dwarf versions. In v2, the size is the pointer size,
while in v3 and above, it is the ref_addr size. This patch fixes
dwarf assembler to emit the correct size of offset. We've already fixed
this size issue in gdb,
