From FEDORA_PATCHES Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keith Seitz Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2019 11:38:37 -0700 Subject: gdb-rhbz1669953-aarch64-sve-binutils.patch ;; Fix 'gdb fails to read zN registers from corefile with aarch64 SVE' ;; Alan Hayward, RH BZ 1669953 Add checks for the NT_ARM_SVE section in a core file. The NT_ARM_SVE section is documented here: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/arm64/sve.txt * A NT_ARM_SVE note will be added to each coredump for each thread of the dumped process. The contents will be equivalent to the data that would have been read if a PTRACE_GETREGSET of NT_ARM_SVE were executed for each thread when the coredump was generated. * elf.c (elfcore_grok_aarch_sve): New function. (elfcore_grok_note): Check for Aarch64 SVE. (elfcore_write_aarch_sve): New function. (elfcore_write_register_note): Check for Aarch64 SVE. * elf-bfd.h(elfcore_grok_aarch_sve): New declaration. diff --git a/bfd/elf-bfd.h b/bfd/elf-bfd.h --- a/bfd/elf-bfd.h +++ b/bfd/elf-bfd.h @@ -2601,6 +2601,8 @@ extern char *elfcore_write_aarch_hw_break (bfd *, char *, int *, const void *, int); extern char *elfcore_write_aarch_hw_watch (bfd *, char *, int *, const void *, int); +extern char *elfcore_write_aarch_sve + (bfd *, char *, int *, const void *, int); extern char *elfcore_write_lwpstatus (bfd *, char *, int *, long, int, const void *); extern char *elfcore_write_register_note diff --git a/bfd/elf.c b/bfd/elf.c --- a/bfd/elf.c +++ b/bfd/elf.c @@ -9340,6 +9340,12 @@ elfcore_grok_aarch_hw_watch (bfd *abfd, Elf_Internal_Note *note) return elfcore_make_note_pseudosection (abfd, ".reg-aarch-hw-watch", note); } +static bfd_boolean +elfcore_grok_aarch_sve (bfd *abfd, Elf_Internal_Note *note) +{ + return elfcore_make_note_pseudosection (abfd, ".reg-aarch-sve", note); +} + #if defined (HAVE_PRPSINFO_T) typedef prpsinfo_t elfcore_psinfo_t; #if defined (HAVE_PRPSINFO32_T) /* Sparc64 cross Sparc32 */ @@ -9836,6 +9842,13 @@ elfcore_grok_note (bfd *abfd, Elf_Internal_Note *note) else return TRUE; + case NT_ARM_SVE: + if (note->namesz == 6 + && strcmp (note->namedata, "LINUX") == 0) + return elfcore_grok_aarch_sve (abfd, note); + else + return TRUE; + case NT_PRPSINFO: case NT_PSINFO: if (bed->elf_backend_grok_psinfo) @@ -11027,6 +11040,18 @@ elfcore_write_aarch_hw_watch (bfd *abfd, note_name, NT_ARM_HW_WATCH, aarch_hw_watch, size); } +char * +elfcore_write_aarch_sve (bfd *abfd, + char *buf, + int *bufsiz, + const void *aarch_sve, + int size) +{ + char *note_name = "LINUX"; + return elfcore_write_note (abfd, buf, bufsiz, + note_name, NT_ARM_SVE, aarch_sve, size); +} + char * elfcore_write_register_note (bfd *abfd, char *buf, @@ -11079,6 +11104,8 @@ elfcore_write_register_note (bfd *abfd, return elfcore_write_aarch_hw_break (abfd, buf, bufsiz, data, size); if (strcmp (section, ".reg-aarch-hw-watch") == 0) return elfcore_write_aarch_hw_watch (abfd, buf, bufsiz, data, size); + if (strcmp (section, ".reg-aarch-sve") == 0) + return elfcore_write_aarch_sve (abfd, buf, bufsiz, data, size); return NULL; }
