Subject: Fix HP/PA GNU/Linux "long double" format
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=aacca8a7a9c7f93955fa9dbf796b030ffce1b956;p=binutils-gdb.git

Fix HP/PA GNU/Linux "long double" format

This:

 $ ./gdb -ex "set architecture hppa1.0" -ex "set osabi GNU/Linux" -ex "ptype 1.0L"

Shows that HPPA/Linux support for long doubles is broken.  It causes
GDB to access memory out of bounds.  With Valgrind, we see:

 The target architecture is assumed to be hppa1.0

The trouble is that hppa_linux_init_abi overrides the default
long_double_bit set by the generic hppa-tdep.c:

  set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 128);
  set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);

with:

  /* On hppa-linux, currently, sizeof(long double) == 8.  There has been
     some discussions to support 128-bit long double, but it requires some
     more work in gcc and glibc first.  */
  set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);

which misses overriding the long_double_format, so we end with a weird
combination of:

  set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);
  set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);

Weird because floatformats_ia64_quad's totalsize is longer than 64-bits.

The floatformat conversion routines use the struct floatformat's
totalsize (in bits) to know how much to copy/convert, thus the buffer
overruns.
