On S/390 we see quite often registers marked as "bad register" in the
readelf --debug-dump=frames or objdump -Wf output.

DW_CFA_restore: bad register: r15 <------
DW_CFA_restore: r14
DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset: 160
This is triggered by this check in display_debug_frames (dwarf.c):
case DW_CFA_restore:
if (opa >= (unsigned int) cie->ncols
|| opa >= (unsigned int) fc->ncols)
reg_prefix = bad_reg;
cie->ncols is number of registers referenced in the CIE which is 15 due
to r14 being given as return address column. So for the CFA_restore of
r15 a "bad register" is being printed while the same rule on r14 is ok.
The reason for this check is to prevent wild memory accesses when
reading input with corrupted register values while accessing the
col_type/col_offset arrays. However in that case r15 is a perfectly
valid register. It just happens not to be mentioned in the CIE. Hence
restoring the CIE rule for r15 should end up with the default rule which
is DW_CFA_undefined.
This probably wasn't observed on other platforms because they either do
not use CFA_restore (x86-64) or do not issue CFA_restore on registers
with a higher number than the return address column.
binutils/ChangeLog:
2016-09-29 Andreas Krebbel <krebbel@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* dwarf.c (frame_display_row): Fix formatting of return address
register column.
(display_debug_frames): Ignore invalid indices into
cie->col_type/cie->col_offset arrays and default to
DW_CF_undefined instead.

README
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
