When GDB is stopped at a ret instruction and no debug information is available for unwinding, GDB defaults to the amd64 epilogue unwinder, to be able to generate a decent backtrace. However, when calculating the frame id, the epilogue unwinder generates information as if the return instruction was the whole frame. This was an issue especially when attempting to reverse debug, as GDB would place a step_resume_breakpoint from the epilogue of a function if we were to attempt to skip that function, and this breakpoint should ideally have the current function's frame_id to avoid other problems such as PR record/16678. This commit changes the frame_id calculation for the amd64 epilogue, so that it is always the same as the dwarf2 unwinder's frame_id. It also adds a test to confirm that the frame_id will be the same, regardless of using the epilogue unwinder or not, thanks to Andrew Burgess. Co-Authored-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com>
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.
