From: Andrew Burgess Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2022 14:40:52 +0000 (+0000) Subject: gdb: add support for disassembler styling using libopcodes X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4cbe4ca5da5cd7e1e6331ce11f024bf3c07b9744;p=binutils-gdb.git gdb: add support for disassembler styling using libopcodes This commit extends GDB to make use of libopcodes styling support where available, currently this is just i386 based architectures, and RISC-V. For architectures that don't support styling using libopcodes GDB will fall back to using the Python Pygments package, when the package is available. The new libopcodes based styling has the disassembler identify parts of the disassembled instruction, e.g. registers, immediates, mnemonics, etc, and can style these components differently. Additionally, as the styling is now done in GDB we can add settings to allow the user to configure which colours are used right from the GDB CLI. There's some new maintenance commands: maintenance set libopcodes-styling enabled on|off maintenance show libopcodes-styling These can be used to manually disable use of libopcodes styling. This is a maintenance command as it's not anticipated that a user should need to do this. But, this could be useful for testing, or, in some rare cases, a user might want to override the Python hook used for disassembler styling, and then disable libopcode styling so that GDB falls back to using Python. Right now I would consider this second use case a rare situation, which is why I think a maintenance command is appropriate. When libopcodes is being used for styling then the user can make use of the following new styles: set/show style disassembler comment set/show style disassembler immediate set/show style disassembler mnemonic set/show style disassembler register The disassembler also makes use of the 'address' and 'function' styles to style some parts of the disassembler output. I have also added the following aliases though: set/show style disassembler address set/show style disassembler symbol these are aliases for: set/show style address set/show style function respectively, and exist to make it easier for users to discover disassembler related style settings. The 'address' style is used to style numeric addresses in the disassembler output, while the 'symbol' or 'function' style is used to style the names of symbols in disassembler output. As not every architecture supports libopcodes styling, the maintenance setting 'libopcodes-styling enabled' has an "auto-off" type behaviour. Consider this GDB session: (gdb) show architecture The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "i386:x86-64"). (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "on". the setting defaults to "on" for architectures that support libopcodes based styling. (gdb) set architecture sparc The target architecture is set to "sparc". (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "off" (not supported on architecture "sparc") the setting will show as "off" if the user switches to an architecture that doesn't support libopcodes styling. The underlying setting is still "on" at this point though, if the user switches back to i386:x86-64 then the setting would go back to being "on". (gdb) maintenance set libopcodes-styling enabled off (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "off". now the setting is "off" for everyone, even if the user switches back to i386:x86-64 the setting will still show as "off". (gdb) maintenance set libopcodes-styling enabled on Use of libopcodes styling not supported on architecture "sparc". (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "off". attempting to switch the setting "on" for an unsupported architecture will give an error, and the setting will remain "off". (gdb) set architecture auto The target architecture is set to "auto" (currently "i386:x86-64"). (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "off". (gdb) maintenance set libopcodes-styling enabled on (gdb) maintenance show libopcodes-styling enabled Use of libopcodes styling support is "on". the user will need to switch back to a supported architecture before they can one again turn this setting "on". --- diff --git a/gdb/NEWS b/gdb/NEWS index 1178a37017e..742f4fe47fb 100644 --- a/gdb/NEWS +++ b/gdb/NEWS @@ -39,6 +39,12 @@ set width NUMBER set width unlimited +* Disassembler styling using libopcodes.
