From: John Baldwin Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2018 21:15:54 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Use the existing instruction to determine the RISC-V breakpoint kind. X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f37bc8b13c898fa39731c20d8565b24e006c13a8;p=binutils-gdb.git Use the existing instruction to determine the RISC-V breakpoint kind. RISC-V supports instructions of varying lengths. Standard existing instructions in the base ISA are 4 bytes in length, but the 'C' extension adds support for compressed, 2 byte instructions. RISC-V supports two different breakpoint instructions: EBREAK is a 4 byte instruction in the base ISA, and C.EBREAK is a 2 byte instruction only available on processors implementing the 'C' extension. Using EBREAK to set breakpoints on compressed instructions causes problems as the second half of EBREAK will overwrite the first 2 bytes of the following instruction breaking other threads in the process if their PC is the following instruction. Thus, breakpoints on compressed instructions need to use C.EBREAK instead of EBREAK. Previously, the riscv architecture checked the MISA register to determine if the 'C' extension was available. If so, it used C.EBREAK for all breakpoints. However, the MISA register is not necessarily available to supervisor mode operating systems. While native targets could provide a fake MISA register value, this patch instead examines the existing instruction at a breakpoint target to determine which breakpoint instruction to use. If the existing instruction is a compressed instruction, C.EBREAK is used, otherwise EBREAK is used. gdb/ChangeLog: * disasm-selftests.c (print_one_insn_test): Add bfd_arch_riscv to case with explicit breakpoint kind. * riscv-tdep.c (show_use_compressed_breakpoints): Remove 'additional_info' and related logic. (riscv_debug_breakpoints): New variable. (riscv_breakpoint_kind_from_pc): Use the length of the existing instruction to determine the breakpoint kind. (_initialize_riscv_tdep): Add 'set/show debug riscv breakpoints' flag. Update description of 'set/show riscv use-compressed-breakpoints' flag. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index df22c00874b..56645e960fc 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,16 @@ +2018-09-28 John Baldwin + + * disasm-selftests.c (print_one_insn_test): Add bfd_arch_riscv to + case with explicit breakpoint kind. + * riscv-tdep.c (show_use_compressed_breakpoints): Remove + 'additional_info' and related logic. + (riscv_debug_breakpoints): New variable. + (riscv_breakpoint_kind_from_pc): Use the length of the existing + instruction to determine the breakpoint kind. + (_initialize_riscv_tdep): Add 'set/show debug riscv breakpoints' + flag.
