gdb/riscv: introduce bare metal core dump support
This commit adds the ability for bare metal RISC-V target to generate
core files from within GDB.
The intended use case is that a user will connect to a remote bare
metal target, debug up to some error condition, then generate a core
file in the normal way using:
(gdb) generate-core-file
This core file can then be used to revisit the state of the remote
target without having to reconnect to the remote target.
The core file creation code is split between two new files. In
elf-none-tdep.c is code for any architecture with the none
ABI (i.e. bare metal) when the BFD library is built with ELF support.
In riscv-none-tdep.c are the RISC-V specific parts. This is where the
regset and regcache_map_entry structures are defined that control how
registers are laid out in the core file. As this file could (in
theory at least) be used for a non-ELF bare metal RISC-V target, the
calls into elf-none-tdep.c are guarded with '#ifdef HAVE_ELF'.
Currently for RISC-V only the x-regs and f-regs (if present) are
written out. In future commits I plan to add support for writing out
the RISC-V CSRs.
The core dump format is based around generating an ELF containing
sections for the writable regions of memory that a user could be
using. Which regions are dumped rely on GDB's existing common core
dumping code, GDB will attempt to figure out the stack and heap as
well as copying out writable data sections as identified by the
original ELF.
Register information is added to the core dump using notes, just as it
is for Linux of FreeBSD core dumps. The note types used consist of
the 3 basic types you would expect in a OS based core dump,
NT_PRPSINFO, NT_PRSTATUS, NT_FPREGSET.
The layout of these notes differs slightly (due to field sizes)
between RV32 and RV64. Below I describe the data layout for each
note. In all cases, all padding fields should be set to zero.
Note NT_PRPSINFO is optional. Its data layout is:
struct prpsinfo32_t /* For RV32. */
{
uint8_t padding[32];
char fname[16];
char psargs[80];
}
struct prpsinfo64_t /* For RV64. */
{
uint8_t padding[40];
char fname[16];
char psargs[80];
}
Field 'fname' - null terminated string consisting of the basename of
(up to the fist 15 characters of) the executable. Any additional
space should be set to zero. If there's no executable name then
this field can be set to all zero.
Field 'psargs' - a null terminated string up to 80 characters in
length. Any additional space should be filled with zero. This
field contains the full executable path and any arguments passed
to the executable. If there's nothing sensible to write in this
field then fill it with zero.
Note NT_PRSTATUS is required, its data layout is:
struct prstatus32_t /* For RV32. */
{
uint8_t padding_1[12];
uint16_t sig;
uint8_t padding_2[10];
uint32_t thread_id;
uint8_t padding_3[44];
uint32_t x_regs[32];
uint8_t padding_4[4];
}
struct prstatus64_t /* For RV64. */
{
uint8_t padding_1[12];
uint16_t sig;
uint8_t padding_2[18];
uint32_t thread_id;
uint8_t padding_3[76];
uint64_t x_regs[32];
uint8_t padding_4[4];
}
Field 'sig' - the signal that stopped this thread. It's implementation
defined what this field actually means. Within GDB this will be
the signal number that the remote target reports as the stop
reason for this thread.
Field 'thread_is' - the thread id for this thread. It's implementation
defined what this field actually means. Within GDB this will be
thread thread-id that is assigned to each remote thread.
Field 'x_regs' - at index 0 we store the program counter, and at
indices 1 to 31 we store x-registers 1 to 31. x-register 0 is not
stored, its value is always zero anyway.
Note NT_FPREGSET is optional, its data layout is:
fpregset32_t /* For targets with 'F' extension. */
{
uint32_t f_regs[32];
uint32_t fcsr;
}
fpregset64_t /* For targets with 'D' extension . */
{
uint64_t f_regs[32];
uint32_t fcsr;
}
Field 'f_regs' - stores f-registers 0 to 31.
Field 'fcsr' - stores the fcsr CSR register, and is always 4-bytes.
The rules for ordering the notes is the same as for Linux. The
NT_PRSTATUS note must come before any other notes about additional
register sets. And for multi-threaded targets all registers for a
single thread should be grouped together. This is because only
NT_PRSTATUS includes a thread-id, all additional register notes after
a NT_PRSTATUS are assumed to belong to the same thread until a
different NT_PRSTATUS is seen.

gdb: make thread_info::suspend private, add getters / setters
A following patch will want to take some action when a pending wait
status is set on or removed from a thread. Add a getter and a setter on
thread_info for the pending waitstatus, so that we can add some code in
the setter later.
The thing is, the pending wait status field is in the
thread_suspend_state, along with other fields that we need to backup
before and restore after the thread does an inferior function call.
Therefore, make the thread_suspend_state member private
(thread_info::suspend becomes thread_info::m_suspend), and add getters /
setters for all of its fields:
- pending wait status
- stop signal
- stop reason
- stop pc
For the pending wait status, add the additional has_pending_waitstatus
and clear_pending_waitstatus methods.
I think this makes the thread_info interface a bit nicer, because we
now access the fields as:
thread->stop_pc ()
rather than
thread->suspend.stop_pc
The stop_pc field being in the `suspend` structure is an implementation
detail of thread_info that callers don't need to be aware of.
For the backup / restore of the thread_suspend_state structure, add
save_suspend_to and restore_suspend_from methods. You might wonder why
`save_suspend_to`, as opposed to a simple getter like
thread_suspend_state &suspend ();
I want to make it clear that this is to be used only for backing up and
restoring the suspend state, _not_ to access fields like:
thread->suspend ()->stop_pc
Adding some getters / setters allows adding some assertions. I find
that this helps understand how things are supposed to work. Add:
- When getting the pending status (pending_waitstatus method), ensure
that there is a pending status.
- When setting a pending status (set_pending_waitstatus method), ensure
there is no pending status.
There is one case I found where this wasn't true - in
remote_target::process_initial_stop_replies - which needed adjustments
to respect that contract. I think it's because
process_initial_stop_replies is kind of (ab)using the
thread_info::suspend::waitstatus to store some statuses temporarily, for
its internal use (statuses it doesn't intent on leaving pending).
process_initial_stop_replies pulls out stop replies received during the
initial connection using target_wait. It always stores the received
event in `evthread->suspend.waitstatus`. But it only sets
waitstatus_pending_p, if it deems the event interesting enough to leave
pending, to be reported to the core:
if (ws.kind != TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
|| ws.value.sig != GDB_SIGNAL_0)
evthread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p = 1;
It later uses this flag a bit below, to choose which thread to make the
"selected" one:
if (selected == NULL
&& thread->suspend.waitstatus_pending_p)
selected = thread;
And ultimately that's used if the user-visible mode is all-stop, so that
we print the stop for that interesting thread:
/* In all-stop, we only print the status of one thread, and leave
others with their status pending. */
if (!non_stop)
{
thread_info *thread = selected;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = lowest_stopped;
if (thread == NULL)
thread = first;
print_one_stopped_thread (thread);
}
But in any case (all-stop or non-stop), print_one_stopped_thread needs
to access the waitstatus value of these threads that don't have a
pending waitstatus (those that had TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0). This doesn't work with the assertions I've
put.
So, change the code to only set the thread's wait status if it is an
interesting one that we are going to leave pending. If the thread
stopped due to a non-interesting event (TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED +
GDB_SIGNAL_0), don't store it. Adjust print_one_stopped_thread to
understand that if a thread has no pending waitstatus, it's because it
stopped with TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED + GDB_SIGNAL_0.
The call to set_last_target_status also uses the pending waitstatus.
However, given that the pending waitstatus for the thread may have been
cleared in print_one_stopped_thread (and that there might not even be a
pending waitstatus in the first place, as explained above), it is no
longer possible to do it at this point. To fix that, move the call to
set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread. I think this will
preserve the existing behavior, because set_last_target_status is
currently using the current thread's wait status. And the current
thread is the last one for which print_one_stopped_thread is called. So
by calling set_last_target_status in print_one_stopped_thread, we'll get
the same result. set_last_target_status will possibly be called
multiple times, but only the last call will matter. It just means
possibly more calls to set_last_target_status, but those are cheap.

gdb/riscv: introduce bare metal core dump support
This commit adds the ability for bare metal RISC-V target to generate
core files from within GDB.
The intended use case is that a user will connect to a remote bare
metal target, debug up to some error condition, then generate a core
file in the normal way using:
(gdb) generate-core-file
This core file can then be used to revisit the state of the remote
target without having to reconnect to the remote target.
The core file creation code is split between two new files. In
elf-none-tdep.c is code for any architecture with the none
ABI (i.e. bare metal) when the BFD library is built with ELF support.
In riscv-none-tdep.c are the RISC-V specific parts. This is where the
regset and regcache_map_entry structures are defined that control how
registers are laid out in the core file. As this file could (in
theory at least) be used for a non-ELF bare metal RISC-V target, the
calls into elf-none-tdep.c are guarded with '#ifdef HAVE_ELF'.
Currently for RISC-V only the x-regs and f-regs (if present) are
written out. In future commits I plan to add support for writing out
the RISC-V CSRs.
The core dump format is based around generating an ELF containing
sections for the writable regions of memory that a user could be
using. Which regions are dumped rely on GDB's existing common core
dumping code, GDB will attempt to figure out the stack and heap as
well as copying out writable data sections as identified by the
original ELF.
Register information is added to the core dump using notes, just as it
is for Linux of FreeBSD core dumps. The note types used consist of
the 3 basic types you would expect in a OS based core dump,
NT_PRPSINFO, NT_PRSTATUS, NT_FPREGSET.
The layout of these notes differs slightly (due to field sizes)
between RV32 and RV64. Below I describe the data layout for each
note. In all cases, all padding fields should be set to zero.
Note NT_PRPSINFO is optional. Its data layout is:
struct prpsinfo32_t /* For RV32. */
{
uint8_t padding[32];
char fname[16];
char psargs[80];
}
struct prpsinfo64_t /* For RV64. */
{
uint8_t padding[40];
char fname[16];
char psargs[80];
}
Field 'fname' - null terminated string consisting of the basename of
(up to the fist 15 characters of) the executable. Any additional
space should be set to zero. If there's no executable name then
this field can be set to all zero.
Field 'psargs' - a null terminated string up to 80 characters in
length. Any additional space should be filled with zero. This
field contains the full executable path and any arguments passed
to the executable. If there's nothing sensible to write in this
field then fill it with zero.
Note NT_PRSTATUS is required, its data layout is:
struct prstatus32_t /* For RV32. */
{
uint8_t padding_1[12];
uint16_t sig;
uint8_t padding_2[10];
uint32_t thread_id;
uint8_t padding_3[44];
uint32_t x_regs[32];
uint8_t padding_4[4];
}
struct prstatus64_t /* For RV64. */
{
uint8_t padding_1[12];
uint16_t sig;
uint8_t padding_2[18];
uint32_t thread_id;
uint8_t padding_3[76];
uint64_t x_regs[32];
uint8_t padding_4[4];
}
Field 'sig' - the signal that stopped this thread. It's implementation
defined what this field actually means. Within GDB this will be
the signal number that the remote target reports as the stop
reason for this thread.
Field 'thread_is' - the thread id for this thread. It's implementation
defined what this field actually means. Within GDB this will be
thread thread-id that is assigned to each remote thread.
Field 'x_regs' - at index 0 we store the program counter, and at
indices 1 to 31 we store x-registers 1 to 31. x-register 0 is not
stored, its value is always zero anyway.
Note NT_FPREGSET is optional, its data layout is:
fpregset32_t /* For targets with 'F' extension. */
{
uint32_t f_regs[32];
uint32_t fcsr;
}
fpregset64_t /* For targets with 'D' extension . */
{
uint64_t f_regs[32];
uint32_t fcsr;
}
Field 'f_regs' - stores f-registers 0 to 31.
Field 'fcsr' - stores the fcsr CSR register, and is always 4-bytes.
The rules for ordering the notes is the same as for Linux. The
NT_PRSTATUS note must come before any other notes about additional
register sets. And for multi-threaded targets all registers for a
single thread should be grouped together. This is because only
NT_PRSTATUS includes a thread-id, all additional register notes after
a NT_PRSTATUS are assumed to belong to the same thread until a
different NT_PRSTATUS is seen.
