* ld: add support of QNX stack arguments for aarch64ntoClément Chigot2023-03-166-1/+220
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | QNX is handling the stack argument using a .note section. Generate it according to ELF argument -zexecstack, -zstack-size and a new NTO argument --lazy-stack. Another NTO argument --stack mimicking -zstack-size is added in order to ensure compatibility with previously made NTO linkers. This requires a new emultempl nto.em which is applied above the default ${ARCH}elf.em. ld/ChangeLog: * emulparams/aarch64nto.sh: Move to nto.em. * emultempl/nto.em: New file. * testsuite/ld-aarch64/aarch64-nto.exp: New test. * testsuite/ld-aarch64/nto-stack-note-1.d: New test. * testsuite/ld-aarch64/nto-stack-note-2.d: New test. * testsuite/ld-aarch64/start.s: New test.

For target board remote-stdio-gdbserver.exp, this revealed a trivial problem with the return value of proc ${board}_file for delete, so fix this.

* gdb: add gdbarch::displaced_step_buffer_lengthAndrew Burgess2023-03-138-12/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
* gdbarch: make invalid=True the default for all ComponentsAndrew Burgess2023-03-132-15/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit switches the default value for the 'invalid' field from False to True. All components that previous set the invalid field to True explicitly have had the field removed. I think that True is a good choice for the default, this means that we now get the validity checks by default, and if anyone adds a new Component they need to make a choice to add an 'invalid=False' line and disable the validation. The flip side of this is that 'invalid=False' seems to be far more common than 'invalid=True'. But I don't see a huge problem with this, we shouldn't be aiming to reduce our typing, rather we should choose based on which is least likely to introduce bugs. I think assuming that we should do a validity check will achieve that. Some additional components need to have an 'invalid=False' line added to their definition, these are components that have a predefault value, which is sufficient; the tdep code doesn't need to replace this value if it doesn't want to. Without adding the 'invalid=False' these components would be considered to be invalid if they have not changed from their predefault value -- but the predefault is fine. There's no change in the generated code after this commit, so there will be no user visible changes after this commit. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
* gdbarch: remove some unneeded predefault="0" from gdbarch_components.pyAndrew Burgess2023-03-132-26/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that there are a bunch of 'predefault="0"' lines in gdbarch_components.py, and that some (just some, not all) of these are not needed. The gdbarch is already zero initialized, but these lines seem to exists so that we can know when to compare against "0" and when to compare against "NULL". At least, this seems to be useful in some places in the generated code. Specifically, if we remove the predefault="0" line from the max_insn_length component then we end up generating a line like: gdb_assert (gdbarch->max_insn_length != NULL); which doesn't compile as we compare a ULONGEST to NULL. In this commit I remove all the predefault="0" lines that I claim are obviously not needed. These are lines for components that are not Values (i.e. the component holds a function pointer anyway), or for Value components that hold a pointer type, in which case using NULL is fine. The only changes after this commit are some fields that have nullptr as their initial value, and gcore_bfd_target now compares to NULL not 0 in gdbarch_gcore_bfd_target_p, which, given the field is of type 'const char *', seems like an improvement.

* gdbarch: improve generation of validation in gdbarch gettersAndrew Burgess2023-03-132-18/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently generate some validation code within the gdbarch getter methods. This commit adjusts the algorithm used to generate this validation slightly to make the gdbarch.py code (I think) clearer; there's no significant changes to what is generated. The validation algorithm for gdbarch values is now: - If the Value has an 'invalid' field that is a string, use that for validation, - If the Value has its 'predicate' field set to true, then check the predicate returns true, this ensures the predicate has been called, - If the Value has its 'invalid' field set to True, or the Value has 'postdefault' field, then check the fields has changed from its initial value, - Otherwise no validation is performed. The only changes after this commit are: - Some comments change slightly, and - For 'gcore_bfd_target' and 'max_insn_length' we now validate by calling the predicate rather than checking the field value directly, the underlying check being performed is unchanged though. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
* gdbarch: use predefault for more value components within gdbarchAndrew Burgess2023-03-132-24/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some reason the following value components of gdbarch: bfloat16_format half_format float_format double_format long_double_format so_ops All use a postdefault but no predefault to set the default value for the component. As the postdefault values for these components are all constant pointers that don't depend on other fields within the gdbarch, then I don't see any reason why we couldn't use a predefault instead. So lets do that. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>

Additionally, this commit allows a component to have both a predicate and for the 'invalid' property to be a string. Removing the option for 'invalid' to be None allows us to simplify the algorithms in gdbarch.py a little. Allowing a component to have both a predicate and an 'invalid' string means that we can validate the value that a tdep sets into a field, but also allow a predicate to ensure that the field has changed from the default. This functionality isn't going to be used in this series, but I have tested it locally and believe that it would work, and this might make it easier for others to add new components in the future. In gdbarch_types.py, I've updated the type annotations to show that the 'invalid' field should not be None, and I've changed the default for this field from None to False. The change to using False as the default is temporary. Later in this series I'm going to change the default to True, but we need more fixes before that can be done. Additionally, in gdbarch_types.py I've removed an assert from Component.get_predicate. This assert ensured that we didn't have the predicate field set to True and the invalid field set to a string. However, no component currently uses this configuration, and after this commit, that combination is now supported, so the assert can be removed. As a consequence of the gdbarch_types.py changes we see some additional comments generated in gdbarch.c about verification being skipped due to the invalid field being False. This comment is inline with plenty of other getters that also have a similar comment. Plenty of the getters do have validation, so I think it is reasonable to have a comment noting that the validation has been skipped for a specific reason, rather than due to some bug. In gdbarch_components.py I've had to add 'invalid=True' for two components: gcore_bfd_target and max_insn_length, without this the validation in the gdbarch getter would disappear. And in gdbarch.py I've reworked the logic for generating the verify_gdbarch function, and for generating the getter functions. The logic for generating the getter functions is still not ideal, I ended up having to add this additional logic block: elif c.postdefault is not None and c.predefault is not None: print(" /* Check variable changed from pre-default. */", file=f) print(f" gdb_assert (gdbarch->{c.name} != {c.predefault});", file=f) which was needed to ensure we continued to generate the same code as before, without this the fact that invalid is now False when it would previously have been None, meant that we dropped the gdb_assert in favour of a comment like: print(f" /* Skip verify of {c.name}, invalid_p == 0 */", file=f) which is clearly not a good change. We could potentially look at improving this in a later commit, but I don't plan to do that in this series. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
* gdb/gdbarch: split postdefault setup from invalid check in gdbarch.pyAndrew Burgess2023-03-132-38/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Restructure how gdbarch.py generates the verify_gdbarch function. Previously the postdefault handling was bundled together with the validation. This means that a field can't have both a postdefault, and set its invalid attribute to a string. This doesn't seem reasonable to me, I see no reason why a field can't have both a postdefault (used when the tdep doesn't set the field), and an invalid expression, which can be used to validate the value that a tdep might set. In this commit I restructure the verify_gdbarch generation code to allow the above, there is no change in the actual generated code in this commit, that will come in later commit.

* gdb/gdbarch: remove yet more 'invalid=True' from gdbarch_components.pyAndrew Burgess2023-03-131-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following on from the previous commit, this commit removes yet more 'invalid=True' lines from gdbarch_components.py where the invalid setting has no effect. Due to the algorithm used in gdbarch.py for generated verify_gdbarch, if a component has a postdefault value then no invalid check will ever be generated for the component, as such setting 'invalid=True' on the component is pointless. This commit removes the setting of invalid. There is no change in the generated code after this commit. Approved-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
* gdb/gdbarch: remove unused 'invalid=True' from gdbarch_components.pyAndrew Burgess2023-03-131-64/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to the algorithm used to generate verify_gdbarch in gdbarch.py, if a component has a predicate, then a validation check will never be generated. There are a bunch of components that are declared with both a predicate AND have 'invalid=True' set. The 'invalid=True' has no effect. In this commit I clean things up by removing all these additional 'invalid=True' lines. There's no change in any of the generated files after this commit.

* Fix crash in inside_main_funcTom Tromey2023-03-133-0/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gdb 13.1 crashes while running the rust compiler's debugger tests. The crash has a number of causes. First, the rust compiler still uses the C++-like _Z mangling, but with its own twist -- some hex digits added to the end of a symbol. So, while gdb finds the correct name of "main": (top-gdb) p name $13 = 0x292e0c0 "rustc_gdb_1031745::main" It isn't found in the minsyms, because C++ demangling yields: [99] t 0x90c0 _ZN17rustc_gdb_10317454main17h5b5be7fe16a97225E section .text rustc_gdb_1031745::main::h5b5be7fe16a97225 zko06yobckx336v This could perhaps be fixed. I also filed a new PR to suggest preferring the linkage name of the main program. Next, the rust compiler emits both a DW_TAG_subprogram and a DW_TAG_namespace for "main". This happens because the file is named "main.rs" -- i.e., the bug is specific to the source file name. The crash also seems to require the nested function inside of 'main', at least for me. The namespace always is generated, but perhaps this changes the ordering in the DWARF. When inside_main_func looks up the main symbol, it finds the namespace symbol rather than the function. (I filed a bug about fixing gdb's symbol tables -- long overdue.) Meanwhile, as I think it's important to fix this crash sooner rather than later, this patch changes inside_main_func to check that the symbol that is found is LOC_BLOCK. This perhaps should have been done in the first place, anyway. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30158
