From: Yao Qi Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2013 10:01:05 +0000 (+0800) Subject: Delegate to target_ops->beneath for TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9f7132948dd9a08e020e6409ebe790d8fd9c6d5d;p=binutils-gdb.git Delegate to target_ops->beneath for TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY GDB on x86_64-linux is unable to disassemble on core-file target. $ ./gdb ./testsuite/gdb.base/corefile (gdb) core-file ./testsuite/gdb.base/corefile.core (gdb) disassemble main Dump of assembler code for function main: 0x0000000000400976 <+0>: Cannot access memory at address 0x400976 However, it works if we turn code-cache off. (gdb) set code-cache off (gdb) disassemble main,+4 Dump of assembler code from 0x400976 to 0x40097a: 0x0000000000400976 : push %rbp 0x0000000000400977 : mov %rsp,%rbp End of assembler dump. When code-cache is off, GDB will iterate target_ops from top to bottom and call to_xfer_partial. When current_target is "core", it will call to_xfer_partial of target "exec", which reads the contents for disassemble. However, dcache uses TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY to read, but target_xfer_partial doesn't delegate requests to beneath for TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY. This patch factors out the iteration from top to bottom to a new function, raw_memory_xfer_partial, and use it for TARGET_OBJECT_RAW_MEMORY. Regression tested on x86_64-linux. gdb: 2013-11-29 Yao Qi Pedro Alves * dcache.c (dcache_read_line): Use current_target.beneath instead of ¤t_target. * target.c (memory_xfer_partial_1): Factor code out to ...
