Looks like that flag fixes the warning, and restores the ability to hit breakpoints.

What are the implications of setting that flag? |
eek, stepping produces one of these for each step
may be unrelated? |
Nothing significant from the kernel's perspective. It means that lld will use dynamic tags and section type numbers in the OS-specific range rather than the generic range. The kernel itself doesn't care about these numbers; it determines the location of the RELR section using symbols defined by a linker script.
I think so.
This CFI instruction is associated with PAC, which presumably isn't supported by your version of gdb. |
Didn't you attempt to send binutils patches for RELR? If they were accepted into the kernel, but not binutils, then I think it's more appropriate to add the flag to the kernel. cc @DanielKristofKiss @kbeyls for the GDB PAC warning. $ gdb-multiarch --version
GNU gdb (Debian 8.3.1-1) 8.3.1 great job matching the warning to the value! |
No, I didn't send anything to binutils. @MaskRay seems to be in the habit of sending patches to binutils, so maybe he could give that a try? I would imagine that it wouldn't need to be a full RELR implementation but just defining the section type constant and teaching GDB not to blow up if it sees that constant. That being said, I would imagine that even if we did get a change landed in binutils it would be a good idea to add the flag to the kernel in order to allow older versions of gdb to debug the kernel, so maybe we should make the kernel change anyway. |
I did ask about My impression is that some ChromeOS folks may have a gold RELR patch which isn't upstreamed. Note that ChromeOS folks also have a glibc patch. I hope they can make some efforts upstreaming that as well. It also does not look like a good idea to me that we permanently use |
Again, I'm just talking about teaching GDB about SHT_RELR, not either of the linkers. That can be done independently of any decisions that might be made about the command line syntax. |
Ok, so probably if |

Pretty sure this means that GNU objdump can't be used to disassemble kernels built with llvm. $ aarch64-linux-gnu-objdump -dr vmlinux

from a thread with @broonie , I wasn't able to hit breakpoints in gdb for a kernel under test in QEMU for a mainline aarch64 kernel build with PAC/BTI enabled. Turned out, those were red herrings.
I was also seeing
(not sure why BFD is invoked from GDB)
@pcc mentioned that
--use-android-relr-tags
may be needed to be added to KBUILD_LDFLAGS for CONFIG_RELR=y.When I disabled CONFIG_RELR=y, I was able to hit breakpoints again.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
