PIE support update going to be checked-in for gdb-7.2: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-06/msg00231.html assumes in svr4_exec_displacement just P_VADDR and P_PADDR get displaced. prelink sources contains adjust_dso() which may in some cases relocated also/only P_OFFSET, P_FILESZ and/or P_MEMSZ. This would disable the PIE adjustment in GDB making it fail on such PIE inferior. I am currently not aware of such sample program.
Another variant that needs to be handled: Gold sets PF_W for the GNU_RELRO segment and strip removes it. This causes the following to fail: bash$ gdb binary.unstripped core.from.stripped svr4_exec_displacement thinks the core doesn't match the binary (because of a program segment header mismatch in the flags field) and the addresses from the core file are not applied. I think it's reasonable to ignore the flags field for the purposes of this test, but maybe I'm missing something.
I just like the checks not to ignore unknown things so I would ignore just PF_W. But I agree ignoring whole flags for GNU_RELRO would be also fine. Ignoring flags everywhere I am not so sure.
For my own education (as I'm not familiar with all the ways this bit of code is used), suppose we ignore the flags field for all segments: what's the worst that could happen?
Gold also sets the alignment (p_align) of GNU_RELRO differently. So maybe ignore p_flags, p_align for GNU_RELRO?
(In reply to dje from comment #3) > suppose we ignore the flags field for all segments: what's the > worst that could happen? If you use non-matching build of an executable it may get incorrectly relocated by some small displacement. (*1) People sometimes try to use non-matching build, IMO it cannot give meaningful output but it may make their attempts even more difficult when the executable gets "randomly" displaced. Currently GDB does not display any notice it used PIE displacement (and there is also no longer any notice it used PIC displacement), unless one has "set verbose" (which nobody has). This may make a falsely-matched displacement a pain. (*1) Currently the displacement still has to be PAGE_SIZE aligned, if it is not PAGE_SIZE aligned no displacement gets used. But I have TODOlisted I should recheck the PAGE_SIZE requirement as it was removed for shlibs by 2da7921acc5c7b327b3619a95ca7ca36a0314dc4 and IMO it should be equally removed for compatibility with prelinked/unprelinked PIE executables.
(In reply to dje from comment #4) > Gold also sets the alignment (p_align) of GNU_RELRO differently. Differently than... bfd ld? gold vs. ld executables are a different build which cannot match / is not guaranteed to match. Therefore gold vs. ld executable should be found as differentl, therefore GNU_RELRO p_align _should_ be verified by svr4_exec_displacement.
Would it be reasonable to check NT_GNU_BUILD_ID, and skip the Phdr check entirely on a match? (In reply to Jan Kratochvil from comment #6) > Differently than... bfd ld? gold vs. ld executables are a different build > which cannot match / is not guaranteed to match. The flow here (Google b/10274851) is: (gold-linked, PIE) unstripped -> "strip -g" -> stripped -> core gdb stripped core # works, but no debug info :-( gdb unstripped core # fails to relocate the binary :-( Gold and strip do not agree on p_flags and p_align of GNU_RELRO, but the "unstripped" and "stripped" *are* exact match.

If the addresses/displacements are different, sure. One recognizes that going in. But I asked about the flags field. btw, 2da7921acc5c7b327b3619a95ca7ca36a0314dc4: kinda meaningless without some reference to a repository. For archeology's sake, IWBN to record that here.

OK, that should be sure safe to ignore p_flags and p_align of GNU_RELRO. (I am curious you do not use separate .debug file instead of unstripped file bat that is off-topic here.)

What if the core file doesn't have NT_GNU_BUILD_ID? E.g., what if the program headers in the core file (obtained via auxv search, ref: gdb/solib-svr4.c:read_program_header) refer to addresses only in the executable?
From https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00935.html CentOS-5 has additional problems: the filesz and memsz fields don't match b/w stripped and non-stripped binaries.

Another fun aspect of GNU strip is that it can change the in memory size of the TLS segment. This is totally broken but whatever.

GDB requires program headers of PIE executables to match, and those checks may fail due to adjustments made during stripping. One case of this occurs because strip recomputes the memsz of PT_TLS and does not add alignment, while gold does. This is another variant of PR 11786, so apply the same fix of relaxing the program header matching. gdb/ChangeLog: PR gdb/11786 * solib-svr4.c (svr4_exec_displacement): Ignore memsz fields for PT_TLS segments. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: PR gdb/11786 * gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.c: New file. * gdb.base/gcore-tls-pie.exp: New file.
