89b07335fe ("Add dwarf2_per_objfile to dwarf_expr_context and dwarf2_frame_cache")
I replaced the offset property of dwarf_expr_context by a per_objfile
property (since we can get the text offset from the objfile). The
previous code in dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc::push_dwarf_reg_entry_value
(dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc derives from dwarf_expr_context) did
temporarily override the offset property while evaluating a DWARF
sub-expression. I speculated that this sub-expression always came from
the same objfile as the outer expression, so I didn't see the need to
temporarily override the per_objfile property in the new code. A later
commit:
9f47c70716 ("Remove dwarf2_per_cu_data::objfile ()")
added the following assertion to verify this:
gdb_assert (this->per_objfile == caller_per_objfile);
It turns out that this is not true. Call sites can refer to function in
another objfile, and therefore the caller's objfile can be different
from the callee's objfile. This can happen when the call site DIE in the
DWARF represents a function call done through a function pointer. The
DIE can't describe statically which function is being called, since it's
variable and not known at compile time. Instead, it provides an
expression that evaluates to the address of the function being called.
In this case, the called function can very well be in a separate
objfile.
Fix this by overriding the per_objfile property while evaluating the
sub-expression.
This was exposed by the gdb.base/catch-load.exp test failing on openSUSE
Tumbleweed with the glibc debug info installed. It was also reported to
fail on Fedora.
When I investigated the problem, the particular call site on which we
did hit the assert was coming from this DIE, in
/usr/lib/debug/lib64/libc-2.31.so-2.31-5.1.x86_64.debug on openSUSE
Tumbleweed:
0x0091aa10: DW_TAG_GNU_call_site
DW_AT_low_pc [DW_FORM_addr] (0x00000000001398e0)
DW_AT_GNU_call_site_target [DW_FORM_exprloc] (DW_OP_fbreg -272, DW_OP_deref)
DW_AT_sibling [DW_FORM_ref4] (0x0091aa2b)
And for you curious out there, this call site is found in this function:
0x0091a91d: DW_TAG_subprogram
DW_AT_external [DW_FORM_flag_present] (true)
DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_strp] ("_dl_catch_exception")
DW_AT_decl_file [DW_FORM_data1] ("/usr/src/debug/glibc-2.31-5.1.x86_64/elf/dl-error-skeleton.c")
...
Which is a function that indeed uses a function pointer.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2/loc.c (class dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc)
<push_dwarf_reg_entry_value>: Remove assert. Override
per_objfile with caller_per_objfile.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
