ld : ppc-amigaos/bin/ld: warning: main.o: requires executable stack (because the .note.GNU-stack section is executable) #8

kas1e · 2023-08-29T07:53:54Z

This is a new warning message introduced by GNU bin-utils version 2.39.

If we build anything with -Wa,--execstack (like, the E-UAE for example), then we will have such warning. That what developers says about:

The ELF linker will now generate a warning message if the stack is made executable. Similarly it will warn if the output binary contains a segment with all three of the read, write and execute permission bits set. These warnings are intended to help developers identify programs which might be vulnerable to attack via these executable memory regions.

So, or you remove -Wa,--execstack , or you have this warning. Binary will continue to works as expected, just, will have security flaw.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

This one were created just for future reference, so we close it to keep in database

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/index-cache.c:76 in index_cache::enable() ... The race happens when issuing a "file $exec" command followed by a "set index-cache enabled on" command. The race is between: - a worker thread reading index_cache::m_enabled to determine whether an index-cache entry for $exec needs to be written (due to command "file $exec"), and - the main thread setting index_cache::m_enabled (due to command "set index-cache enabled on"). Fix this by capturing the value of index_cache::m_enabled in the main thread, and using the captured value in the worker thread. Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race bfd/cache.c:584 in bfd_open_file ... The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command. The race is between: - a worker thread getting the build id while writing the index cache, and in the process reading bfd::format, and - the main thread calling find_main_name, and in the process setting bfd::cacheable. The two bitfields bfd::cacheable and bfd::format share the same bitfield container. Fix this by capturing the build id in the main thread, and using the captured value in the worker thread. Likewise for the dwz build id, which likely suffers from the same issue. While we're at it, also move the creation of the cache directory to the index_cache_store_context constructor, to: - make sure there's no race between subsequent file commands, and - issue any related warning or error messages during the file command. Tested on x86_64-linux. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR symtab/30392 Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30392

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:21513 in dwarf2_per_cu_data::get_header() const ... The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command. The race is between: - a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and - the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in. The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in and dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container. Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::m_header_read_in a packed<bool, 1>. Tested on x86_64-linux.

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race gdb/dwarf2/read.c:3077 in dw_expand_symtabs_matching_file_matcher(dwarf2_per_objfile*, gdb::function_view<bool (char const*, bool)>) ... The race happens when issuing the "file $exec" command. The race is between: - a worker thread writing the index cache, and in the process reading dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type, and - the main thread writing to dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark. The two bitfields dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark and dwarf2_per_cu_data::is_debug_type share the same bitfield container. Fix this by making dwarf2_per_cu_data::mark a packed<unsigned int, 1>. Tested on x86_64-linux. PR symtab/30718 Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30718

GetConsoleProcessList's documentation says: If the buffer is too small to hold all the valid process identifiers, the return value is the required number of array elements. The function will have stored no identifiers in the buffer. In this situation, use the return value to allocate a buffer that is large enough to store the entire list and call the function again. In this case, the buffer wasn't too small, it was exactly the right size, so we should have broken out of the loop. We didn't due to a "<" check that should have been "<=". That is fixed by this patch. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> Reviewed-By: Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org> Change-Id: I14e4909f2ac2fa83d0d9b6e64418b5831ac4e4e3

This commit fixes an issue that was discovered while writing the tests for the previous commit. I noticed that, when GDB restarts an inferior, the executable_changed event would trigger twice. The first notification would originate from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x4046680 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x00000000006f3adb in reopen_exec_file () at ../../src/gdb/corefile.c:122 #2 0x0000000000e6a3f2 in generic_mourn_inferior () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:3682 #3 0x0000000000995121 in inf_child_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-child.c:192 #4 0x0000000000995cff in inf_ptrace_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/inf-ptrace.c:125 #5 0x0000000000a32472 in linux_nat_target::mourn_inferior (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3609 #6 0x0000000000e68a40 in target_mourn_inferior (ptid=...) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2761 #7 0x0000000000a323ec in linux_nat_target::kill (this=0x2fe95c0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>) at ../../src/gdb/linux-nat.c:3593 #8 0x0000000000e64d1c in target_kill () at ../../src/gdb/target.c:924 #9 0x00000000009a19bc in kill_if_already_running (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:328 #10 0x00000000009a1a6f in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:381 #11 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #12 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 While the second originates from: #0 exec_file_attach (filename=0x3d7a1d0 "/tmp/hello.x", from_tty=0) at ../../src/gdb/exec.c:513 #1 0x0000000000dfe525 in reread_symbols (from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/symfile.c:2517 #2 0x00000000009a1a98 in run_command_1 (args=0x0, from_tty=1, run_how=RUN_STOP_AT_MAIN) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:398 #3 0x00000000009a20a5 in start_command (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ../../src/gdb/infcmd.c:527 #4 0x000000000068dc5d in do_simple_func (args=0x0, from_tty=1, c=0x35c7200) at ../../src/gdb/cli/cli-decode.c:95 In the first case the call to exec_file_attach first passes through reopen_exec_file. The reopen_exec_file performs a modification time check on the executable file, and only calls exec_file_attach if the executable has changed on disk since it was last loaded. However, in the second case things work a little differently. In this case GDB is really trying to reread the debug symbol. As such, we iterate over the objfiles list, and for each of those we check the modification time, if the file on disk has changed then we reload the debug symbols from that file. However, there is an additional check, if the objfile has the same name as the executable then we will call exec_file_attach, but we do so without checking the cached modification time that indicates when the executable was last reloaded, as a result, we reload the executable twice. In this commit I propose that reread_symbols be changed to unconditionally call reopen_exec_file before performing the objfile iteration. This will ensure that, if the executable has changed, then the executable will be reloaded, however, if the executable has already been recently reloaded, we will not reload it for a second time. After handling the executable, GDB can then iterate over the objfiles list and reload them in the normal way. With this done I now see the executable reloaded only once when GDB restarts an inferior, which means I can remove the kfail that I added to the gdb.python/py-exec-file.exp test in the previous commit.

It was pointed out on the mailing list that a recently added test (gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp) was failing when run with the native-extended-gdbserver board. This test was added with this commit: commit 59912fb Date: Tue Sep 19 11:45:36 2023 +0100 gdb: add Python events for program space addition and removal It turns out though that the test is failing due to a existing bug in GDB, the new test just exposes the problem. Additionally, the failure really doesn't even rely on the new functionality added in the above commit. I reduced the test to a simple set of steps that reproduced the failure and tested against GDB 13, and the test passes; so the bug was introduced since then. In fact, the bug was introduced with this commit: commit a282736 Date: Fri Sep 8 15:48:16 2023 +0100 gdb: remove final user of the executable_changed observer This commit changed how the per-inferior auxv data cache is managed, specifically, when the cache is cleared, and it is this that leads to the failure. This bug is interesting because it exposes a number of issues with GDB, I'll explain all of the problems I see, though ultimately, I only propose fixing one problem in this commit, which is enough to resolve the crash we are currently seeing. The crash that we are seeing manifests like this: ... [Inferior 2 (process 3970384) exited normally] +inferior 1 [Switching to inferior 1 [process 3970383] (/tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.python/py-progspace-events/py-progspace-events)] [Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 3970383.3970383)] #0 breakpt () at /tmp/build/gdb/testsuite/../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.python/py-progspace-events.c:28 28 { /* Nothing. */ } (gdb) step +step terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_error' Fatal signal: Aborted ... etc ... What's happening is that GDB attempts to refill the auxv cache as a result of the gdbarch_has_shared_address_space call in program_space::~program_space, the backtrace looks like this: #0 0x00007fb4f419a9a5 in raise () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0 #1 0x00000000008b635d in handle_fatal_signal (sig=6) at ../../src/gdb/event-top.c:912 #2 <signal handler called> #3 0x00007fb4f38e3625 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #4 0x00007fb4f38cc8d9 in abort () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #5 0x00007fb4f3c70756 in __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler() [clone .cold] () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #6 0x00007fb4f3c7c6dc in __cxxabiv1::__terminate(void (*)()) () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #7 0x00007fb4f3c7b6e9 in __cxa_call_terminate () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #8 0x00007fb4f3c7c094 in __gxx_personality_v0 () from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 #9 0x00007fb4f3a80c63 in _Unwind_RaiseException_Phase2 () from /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 #10 0x00007fb4f3a8154e in _Unwind_Resume () from /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 #11 0x0000000000e8832d in target_read_alloc_1<unsigned char> (ops=0x408a3a0, object=TARGET_OBJECT_AUXV, annex=0x0) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2266 #12 0x0000000000e73dea in target_read_alloc (ops=0x408a3a0, object=TARGET_OBJECT_AUXV, annex=0x0) at ../../src/gdb/target.c:2315 #13 0x000000000058248c in target_read_auxv_raw (ops=0x408a3a0) at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:379 #14 0x000000000058243d in target_read_auxv () at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:368 #15 0x000000000058255c in target_auxv_search (match=0x0, valp=0x7ffdee17c598) at ../../src/gdb/auxv.c:415 #16 0x0000000000a464bb in linux_is_uclinux () at ../../src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:433 #17 0x0000000000a464f6 in linux_has_shared_address_space (gdbarch=0x409a2d0) at ../../src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:440 #18 0x0000000000510eae in gdbarch_has_shared_address_space (gdbarch=0x409a2d0) at ../../src/gdb/gdbarch.c:4889 #19 0x0000000000bc7558 in program_space::~program_space (this=0x4544aa0, __in_chrg=<optimized out>) at ../../src/gdb/progspace.c:124 #20 0x00000000009b245d in delete_inferior (inf=0x47b3de0) at ../../src/gdb/inferior.c:290 #21 0x00000000009b2c10 in prune_inferiors () at ../../src/gdb/inferior.c:480 #22 0x00000000009c5e3e in fetch_inferior_event () at ../../src/gdb/infrun.c:4558 #23 0x000000000099b4dc in inferior_event_handler (event_type=INF_REG_EVENT) at ../../src/gdb/inf-loop.c:42 #24 0x0000000000cbc64f in remote_async_serial_handler (scb=0x4090a30, context=0x408a6b0) at ../../src/gdb/remote.c:14859 #25 0x0000000000d83d3a in run_async_handler_and_reschedule (scb=0x4090a30) at ../../src/gdb/ser-base.c:138 #26 0x0000000000d83e1f in fd_event (error=0, context=0x4090a30) at ../../src/gdb/ser-base.c:189 So this is problem #1, if we throw an exception while deleting a program_space then this is not caught, and is going to crash GDB. Problem #2 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is throwing an error in this case; the error is thrown because the remote target, operating in non-async mode, can't read the auxv data while an inferior is running and GDB is waiting for a stop reply. The problem here then, is why does GDB get into a position where it tries to interact with the remote target in this way, at this time? The problem is caused by the prune_inferiors call which can be seen in the above backtrace. In prune_inferiors we check if the inferior is deletable, and if it is, we delete it. The problem is, I think, we should also check if the target is currently in a state that would allow us to delete the inferior. We don't currently have such a check available, we'd need to add one, but for the remote target, this would return false if the remote is in async mode and the remote is currently waiting for a stop reply. With this change in place GDB would defer deleting the inferior until the remote target has stopped, at which point GDB would be able to refill the auxv cache successfully. And then, problem #3 becomes evident when we ask why GDB is needing to refill the auxv cache now when it didn't need to for GDB 13. This is where the second commit mentioned above (a282736) comes in. Prior to this commit, the auxv cache was cleared by the executable_changed observer, while after that commit the auxv cache was cleared by the new_objfile observer -- but only when the new_objfile observer is used in the special mode that actually means that all objfiles have been unloaded (I know, the overloading of the new_objfile observer is horrible, and unnecessary, but it's not really important for this bug). The difference arises because the new_objfile observer is triggered from clear_symtab_users, which in turn is called from program_space::~program_space. The new_objfile observer for auxv does this: static void auxv_new_objfile_observer (struct objfile *objfile) { if (objfile == nullptr) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (current_inferior ()); } That is, when all the objfiles are unloaded, we clear the auxv cache for the current inferior. The problem is, then when we look at the prune_inferiors -> delete_inferior -> ~program_space path, we see that the current inferior is not going to be an inferior that exists within the program_space being deleted; delete_inferior removes the deleted inferior from the global inferior list, and then only deletes the program_space if program_space::empty() returns true, which is only the case if the current inferior isn't within the program_space to delete, and no other inferior exists within that program_space either. What this means is that when the new_objfile observer is called we can't rely on the current inferior having any relationship with the program space in which the objfiles were removed. This was an error in the commit a282736, the only thing we can rely on is the current program space. As a result of this mistake, after commit a282736, GDB was sometimes clearing the auxv cache for a random inferior. In the native target case this was harmless as we can always refill the cache when needed, but in the remote target case, if we need to refill the cache when the remote target is executing, then we get the crash we observed. And additionally, if we think about this a little more, we see that commit a282736 made another mistake. When all the objfiles are removed, they are removed from a program_space, a program_space might contain multiple inferiors, so surely, we should clear the auxv cache for all of the matching inferiors? Given these two insights, that the current_inferior is not relevant, only the current_program_space, and that we should be clearing the cache for all inferiors in the current_program_space, we can update auxv_new_objfile_observer to: if (objfile == nullptr) { for (inferior *inf : all_inferiors ()) { if (inf->pspace == current_program_space) invalidate_auxv_cache_inf (inf); } } With this change we now correctly clear the auxv cache for the correct inferiors, and GDB no longer needs to refill the cache at an inconvenient time, this avoids the crash we were seeing. And finally, we reach problem #4. Inspired by the observation that using the current_inferior from within the ~program_space function was not correct, I added some debug to see if current_inferior() was called anywhere else (below ~program_space), and the answer is yes, it's called a often. Mostly the culprit is GDB doing: current_inferior ()->top_target ()-> .... But I think all of these calls are most likely doing the wrong thing, and only work because the top target in all these cases is shared between all inferiors, e.g. it's the native target, or the remote target for all inferiors. But if we had a truly multi-connection setup, then we might start to see odd behaviour. Problem #1 I'm just ignoring for now, I guess at some point we might run into this again, and then we'd need to solve this. But in this case I wasn't sure what a "good" solution would look like. We need the auxv data in order to implement the linux_is_uclinux() function. If we can't get the auxv data then what should we do, assume yes, or assume no? The right answer would probably be to propagate the error back up the stack, but then we reach ~program_space, and throwing exceptions from a destructor is problematic, so we'd need to catch and deal at this point. The linux_is_uclinux() call is made from within gdbarch_has_shared_address_space(), which is used like: if (!gdbarch_has_shared_address_space (target_gdbarch ())) delete this->aspace; So, we would have to choose; delete the address space or not. If we delete it on error, then we might delete an address space that is shared within another program space. If we don't delete the address space, then we might leak it. Neither choice is great. A better solution might be to have the address spaces be reference counted, then we could remove the gdbarch_has_shared_address_space call completely, and just rely on the reference count to auto-delete the address space when appropriate. The solution for problem #2 I already hinted at above, we should have a new target_can_delete_inferiors() call, which should be called from prune_inferiors, this would prevent GDB from trying to delete inferiors when a (remote) target is in a state where we know it can't delete the inferior. Deleting an inferior often (always?) requires sending packets to the remote, and if the remote is waiting for a stop reply then this will never work, so the pruning should be deferred in this case. The solution for problem #3 is included in this commit. And, for problem #4, I'm not sure what the right solution is. Maybe delete_inferior should ensure the inferior to be deleted is in place when ~program_space is called? But that seems a little weird, as the current inferior would, in theory, still be using the current program_space... Anyway, after this commit, the gdb.python/py-progspace-events.exp test now passes when run with the native-extended-remote board.

I noticed that on an Ubuntu 20.04 system, after a following patch ("Step over clone syscall w/ breakpoint, TARGET_WAITKIND_THREAD_CLONED"), the gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp was passing cleanly, but still, we'd end up with four new unexpected GDB core dumps: === gdb Summary === # of unexpected core files 4 # of expected passes 48 That said patch is making the pre-existing gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp testcase (almost silently) expose a latent problem in gdb/linux-nat.c, resulting in a GDB crash when: #1 - a non-leader thread execs #2 - the post-exec program stops somewhere #3 - you kill the inferior Instead of #3 directly, the testcase just returns, which ends up in gdb_exit, tearing down GDB, which kills the inferior, and is thus equivalent to #3 above.

The root of the problem is that when a non-leader LWP execs, it just changes its tid to the tgid, replacing the pre-exec leader thread, becoming the new leader. There's no thread exit event for the execing thread. It's as if the old pre-exec LWP vanishes without trace. The ptrace man page says: "PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC (since Linux 2.5.46) Stop the tracee at the next execve(2). A waitpid(2) by the tracer will return a status value such that status>>8 == (SIGTRAP | (PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC<<8)) If the execing thread is not a thread group leader, the thread ID is reset to thread group leader's ID before this stop. Since Linux 3.0, the former thread ID can be retrieved with PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG." When the core of GDB processes an exec events, it deletes all the threads of the inferior. But, that is too late -- deleting the thread does not delete the corresponding LWP, so we end leaving the pre-exec non-leader LWP stale in the LWP list. That's what leads to the crash above -- linux_nat_target::kill iterates over all LWPs, and after the patch in question, that code will look for the corresponding thread_info for each LWP. For the pre-exec non-leader LWP still listed, won't find one. This patch fixes it, by deleting the pre-exec non-leader LWP (and thread) from the LWP/thread lists as soon as we get an exec event out of ptrace. GDBserver does not need an equivalent fix, because it is already doing this, as side effect of mourning the pre-exec process, in gdbserver/linux-low.cc: else if (event == PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC && cs.report_exec_events) { ... /* Delete the execing process and all its threads. */ mourn (proc); switch_to_thread (nullptr); The crash with gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp is not observable on newer systems, which postdate the glibc change to move "libpthread.so" internals to "libc.so.6", because right after the exec, GDB traps a load event for "libc.so.6", which leads to GDB trying to open libthread_db for the post-exec inferior, and, on such systems that succeeds. When we load libthread_db, we call linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, which, as the name suggests, stops all lwps, and then waits to see their stops. While doing this, GDB detects that the pre-exec stale LWP is gone, and deletes it. If we use "catch exec" to stop right at the exec before the "libc.so.6" load event ever happens, and issue "kill" right there, then GDB crashes on newer systems as well. So instead of tweaking gdb.threads/step-over-exec.exp to cover the fix, add a new gdb.threads/threads-after-exec.exp testcase that uses "catch exec". The test also uses the new "maint info linux-lwps" command if testing on Linux native, which also exposes the stale LWP problem with an unfixed GDB. Also tweak a comment in infrun.c:follow_exec referring to how linux-nat.c used to behave, as it would become stale otherwise.

Running the gdb.threads/step-over-thread-exit-while-stop-all-threads.exp testcase added later in the series against gdbserver, after the TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED fix from the following patch, would run into an infinite loop in stop_all_threads, leading to a timeout: FAIL: gdb.threads/step-over-thread-exit-while-stop-all-threads.exp: displaced-stepping=off: target-non-stop=on: iter 0: continue (timeout) The is really a latent bug, and it is about the fact that stop_all_threads stops listening to events from a target as soon as it sees a TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED, ignoring that TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED may be delayed. handle_no_resumed knows how to handle delayed no-resumed events, but stop_all_threads was never taught to. In more detail, here's what happens with that testcase: #1 - Multiple threads report breakpoint hits to gdb. #2 - gdb picks one events, and it's for thread 1. All other stops are left pending. thread 1 needs to move past a breakpoint, so gdb stops all threads to start an inline step over for thread 1. While stopping threads, some of the threads that were still running report events that are also left pending. #2 - gdb steps thread 1 #3 - Thread 1 exits while stepping (it steps over an exit syscall), gdbserver reports thread exit for thread 1 #4 - Thread 1 was the last resumed thread, so gdbserver also reports no-resumed: [remote] Notification received: Stop:w0;p3445d0.3445d3 [remote] Sending packet: $vStopped#55 [remote] Packet received: N [remote] Sending packet: $vStopped#55 [remote] Packet received: OK #5 - gdb processes the thread exit for thread 1, finishes the step over and restarts threads. #6 - gdb picks the next event to process out of one of the resumed threads with pending events: [infrun] random_resumed_with_pending_wait_status: Found 32 events, selecting #11 #7 - This is again a breakpoint hit and the breakpoint needs to be stepped over too, so gdb starts a step-over dance again. #8 - We reach stop_all_threads, which finds that some threads need to be stopped. #9 - wait_one finally consumes the no-resumed event queue by #4. Seeing this, wait_one disable target async, to stop listening for events out of the remote target. #10 - We still haven't seen all the stops expected, so stop_all_threads tries another iteration. #11 - Because the remote target is no longer async, and there are no other targets, wait_one return no-resumed immediately without polling the remote target. #12 - We still haven't seen all the stops expected, so stop_all_threads tries another iteration. goto #11, looping forever. Fix this by explicitly enabling/re-enabling target async on targets that can async, before waiting for stops.

When using GDB on native linux, it can happen that, while attempting to detach an inferior, the inferior may have been exited or have been killed, yet still be in the list of lwps. Should that happen, the assert in x86_linux_update_debug_registers in gdb/nat/x86-linux-dregs.c will trigger. The line in question looks like this: gdb_assert (lwp_is_stopped (lwp)); For this case, the lwp isn't stopped - it's dead. The bug which brought this problem to my attention is one in which the pwntools library uses GDB to to debug a process; as the script is shutting things down, it kills the process that GDB is debugging and also sends GDB a SIGTERM signal, which causes GDB to detach all inferiors prior to exiting. Here's a link to the bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2192169 The following shell command mimics part of what the pwntools reproducer script does (with regard to shutting things down), but reproduces the bug much less reliably. I have found it necessary to run the command a bunch of times before seeing the bug. (I usually see it within 5-10 repetitions.) If you choose to try this command, make sure that you have no running "cat" or "gdb" processes first! cat </dev/zero >/dev/null & \ (sleep 5; (kill -KILL `pgrep cat` & kill -TERM `pgrep gdb`)) & \ sleep 1 ; \ gdb -q -iex 'set debuginfod enabled off' -ex 'set height 0' \ -ex c /usr/bin/cat `pgrep cat` So, basically, the idea here is to kill both gdb and cat at roughly the same time. If we happen to attempt the detach before the process lwp has been deleted from GDB's (linux native) LWP data structures, then the assert will trigger. The relevant part of the backtrace looks like this: #8 0x00000000008a83ae in x86_linux_update_debug_registers (lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/nat/x86-linux-dregs.c:146 #9 0x00000000008a862f in x86_linux_prepare_to_resume (lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/nat/x86-linux.c:81 #10 0x000000000048ea42 in x86_linux_nat_target::low_prepare_to_resume ( this=0x121eee0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>, lwp=0x1873280) at gdb/x86-linux-nat.h:70 #11 0x000000000081a452 in detach_one_lwp (lp=0x1873280, signo_p=0x7fff8ca3441c) at gdb/linux-nat.c:1374 #12 0x000000000081a85f in linux_nat_target::detach ( this=0x121eee0 <the_amd64_linux_nat_target>, inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/linux-nat.c:1450 #13 0x000000000083a23b in thread_db_target::detach ( this=0x1206ae0 <the_thread_db_target>, inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/linux-thread-db.c:1385 #14 0x0000000000a66722 in target_detach (inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/target.c:2526 #15 0x0000000000a8f0ad in kill_or_detach (inf=0x16e8f70, from_tty=0) at gdb/top.c:1659 #16 0x0000000000a8f4fa in quit_force (exit_arg=0x0, from_tty=0) at gdb/top.c:1762 #17 0x000000000070829c in async_sigterm_handler (arg=0x0) at gdb/event-top.c:1141 My colleague, Andrew Burgess, has done some recent work on other problems with detach. Upon hearing of this problem, he came up a test case which reliably reproduces the problem and tests for a few other problems as well. In addition to testing detach when the inferior has terminated due to a signal, it also tests detach when the inferior has exited normally. Andrew observed that the linux-native-only "checkpoint" command would be affected too, so the test also tests those cases when there's an active checkpoint. For the LWP exit / termination case with no checkpoint, that's handled via newly added checks of the waitstatus in detach_one_lwp in linux-nat.c. For the checkpoint detach problem, I chose to pass the lwp_info to linux_fork_detach in linux-fork.c. With that in place, suitable tests were added before attempting a PTRACE_DETACH operation. I added a few asserts at the beginning of linux_fork_detach and modified the caller code so that the newly added asserts shouldn't trigger. (That's what the 'pid == inferior_ptid.pid' check is about in gdb/linux-nat.c.) Lastly, I'll note that the checkpoint code needs some work with regard to background execution. This patch doesn't attempt to fix that problem, but it doesn't make it any worse. It does slightly improve the situation with detach because, due to the check noted above, linux_fork_detach() won't be called for the wrong inferior when there are multiple inferiors. (There are at least two other problems with the checkpoint code when there are multiple inferiors. See: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31065) This commit also adds a new test, gdb.base/process-dies-while-detaching.exp. Andrew Burgess is the primary author of this test case. Its design is similar to that of gdb.threads/main-thread-exit-during-detach.exp, which was also written by Andrew. This test checks that GDB correctly handles several cases that can occur when GDB attempts to detach an inferior process. The process can exit or be terminated (e.g. via SIGKILL) prior to GDB's event loop getting a chance to remove it from GDB's internal data structures. To complicate things even more, detach works differently when a checkpoint (created via GDB's "checkpoint" command) exists for the inferior. This test checks all four possibilities: process exit with no checkpoint, process termination with no checkpoint, process exit with a checkpoint, and process termination with a checkpoint.
