Subject: [PATCH 5/8] coredump: fix segmentation fault caused by type mismatch
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
crash gcore command on ARM sometimes results in segmentation fault:
crash> gcore -v 0
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This is caused by type mismatch of a variable paddr in function
gcore_readmem_user() to hold a physical address, which is indicated by
the following warning message:
libgcore/gcore_coredump.c: In function gcore_readmem_user:
libgcore/gcore_coredump.c:85:26: warning: passing argument 2 of
uvtop_quiet from incompatible pointer type
[-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
if (!uvtop_quiet(addr, &paddr)) {
^~~~~~
libgcore/gcore_coredump.c:71:49: note: expected physaddr_t * {aka
long long unsigned int *} but argument is of type ulong * {aka long
unsigned int *}
static int uvtop_quiet(ulong vaddr, physaddr_t *paddr);
~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~
On ARM, long unsigned int has 4 byte length, while physaddr_t has 8
byte length. The mismatch causes overwriting of stack variables.
Fix this by changing the type of the variable paddr to physaddr_t.
