[PATCH 2/3] Fix copy_bitwise()
- From: Andreas Arnez <arnez at linux dot vnet dot ibm dot com>
- To: gdb-patches at sourceware dot org
- Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2016 16:02:25 +0100
- Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Fix copy_bitwise()
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
- References: <1479135786-31150-1-git-send-email-arnez@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
When the user writes or reads a variable whose location is described
with DWARF pieces (DW_OP_piece or DW_OP_bit_piece), GDB's helper
function copy_bitwise is invoked for each piece. The implementation of
this function has a bug that may result in a corrupted copy, depending
on alignment and bit size. (Full-byte copies are not affected.)
This rewrites copy_bitwise, replacing its algorithm by a fixed version,
and adding an appropriate test case. Without the fix the new test case
fails, e.g.:
print def_t
$2 = {a = 0, b = 4177919}
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/nonvar-access.exp: print def_t
Written in binary, the wrong result above looks like this:
01111111011111111111111
Which means that two zero bits have sneaked into the copy of the
original all-one bit pattern. The test uses this simple all-one value
in order to avoid another GDB bug that causes the DWARF piece of a
DW_OP_stack_value to be taken from the wrong end on big-endian
architectures.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (extract_bits_primitive): Remove.
(extract_bits): Remove.
(copy_bitwise): Rewrite. Fixes a possible corruption that may
occur for non-byte-aligned copies.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/nonvar-access.exp: Add a test for accessing
non-byte-aligned bit fields.
