Hi,

This is version 5 of the previously sent RFC series.

Initial (V1) posting contains necessary introductions:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-May/120731.html
V2 posting with some improvements:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-May/120899.html
V3 posting with further improvements:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-June/121245.html
V4 posting with further improvements and bugfixes:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-June/121478.html

The commit log of each patch in the current patch series specifies the changes
from the version V4 of the respective patch.  Briefly, following are the main 
changes in the current version V5 as compared to V4:

1. Assembler testsuite has additional testcases.  In general, the
as/ld/unwinder support for CTF Frame format has been further tested in this
version of the patch series for both x86_64 and aarch64.
2. libctfbacktrace is the library which provides a simple unwinder based on CTF
Frame.  The current patch series now includes a testsuite for the unwinder
based on CTF Frame.

CTF Frame support V5 patch series has been regression tested on a host of
targets with no regressions.

Important note: libctfframe/configure has NOT been included in the patch
series, as it causes the size of some patches to go beyond the allowed limit.
Please regenerate the libctfframe/configure after applying the series.

Please comment and provide feedback, it will help shape the format.  One of the
outstanding item where feedback from folks will help is:

1. What is a good place for an unwinder based on CTF Frame format ? Currently
to facilitate discussion, it is presented in a library of its own:
libctfbacktrace which, in turn, uses the libctfframe library for decoding the
.ctf_frame section for unwinding.  We brainstormed a bit about the possible
candidates being libbacktace, libgcc or libunwind ? Are there any
recommendations ?

Thanks,

Indu Bhagat (7):
  ctf-frame.h: Add CTF Frame format definition
  gas: add new command line option --gctf-frame
  gas: generate .ctf_frame
  libctfframe: add GNU poke pickles for CTF Frame

[Changes from V4]
 - Fix minor typos.
[End of changes from V4]

[Changes from V3]
  - CTF Format differentiates between the two possible FDE types using a
    bit in the fde_func_info byte - CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRINC
    or CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRMASK.
    The new CTF FDE type (CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRMASK) is ideal
    for representing unwind information for regular, repetitive instruction
    patterns like plt entries.
[End of changes from V3]

[Changes from V2]
  - Consistent use of terminology.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
  - Make use of uint8_t, uint16_t consistently.  Removed the usage of
    unsigned char, unsigned short.
[End of changes from V1]

The header ctf-frame.h defines the CTF Frame format.

The CTF Frame format is a simple, compact format for representing
unwind information.  This information can be used for generating
backtraces.  The current version supports AMD64 and AARCH64.

More details of the CTF Frame format are included in the documentation
of the header file in this patch.

+/* CTF Frame format.
+
+   CTF Frame format can be used to compactly represent the information needed
+   for virtual stack unwinding.  CTF Frame format keeps track of the minimal
+   necessary information needed for stack unwinding:
+     - Canonical Frame Address (CFA)
+     - Frame Pointer (FP)
+     - Return Address (RA)
+
+   The CTF Frame section itself has the following structure:
+
+       +--------+------------+---------+
+       |  file  |  function  | frame   |
+       | header | descriptor |  row    |
+       |        |   entries  | entries |
+       +--------+------------+---------+
+
+   The file header stores a magic number and version information, flags, and
+   the byte offset of each of the sections relative to the end of the header
+   itself.  The file header also specifies the total number of Function
+   Descriptor Entries, Frame Row Entries and length of the FRE sub-section.
+
+   Following the header is a list of Function Descriptor Entries (FDEs).
+   This list may be sorted if the flags in the file header indicate it to be
+   so.  The sort order, if applicable, is the order of functions in the
+   .text.* sections in the resulting binary artifact.  Each Function
+   Descriptor Entry specifies the start PC of a function, the size in bytes
+   of the function and an offset to its first Frame Row Entry (FRE).  Each FDE
+   additionally also specifies the type of FRE it uses to encode the unwind
+   information.
+
+   Next, the Frame Row Entry section is a list of variable size records,
+   each of which represent CTF Frame unwind information for a set of PCs.  A
+   singular Frame Row Entry is a self-sufficient record with information on
+   how to virtually unwind the stack for the applicable set of PCs.

[No changes from V4, V3]

When --gctf-frame is specified, the assembler will generate a .ctf_frame
section from the CFI directives in the assembly.

ChangeLog:
	* gas/as.c (parse_args): Parse args and set flag_gen_ctf_frame.
	* gas/as.h: Introduce skeleton for --gctf-frame.
	* gas/doc/as.texi: document --gctf-frame.

[Changes from V4]
 - bugfix: Disabling CTF_FRE_TYPE_SELECTION_OPT causes gas to crash
 - Tested various cfi_* directives in isolation and in combination with
   each other to ensure graceful handling in all scenarios.  Added
   further testcases in gas testsuite.
[End of changes from V4]

[Changes from V3]
 - Do not err out if .ctf_frame is not supported for a target, just warn
   instead.
 - Other changes around API ctf_frame_fde_func_info () as it now
   includes an fde_type along with the earlier lone argument of
   fre_type.
[End of changes from V3]

[Changes from V2]
 - consistent use of terminology.
 - updated documentation in code comments around FRE start address
   optimization (fragment fixup).  Also renamed the type rs_ctf_fre to
   rs_ctf_frame.
 - added gas testsuite.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
 - generate .ctf_frame if --gctf-frame is specified OR if .cfi_sections
   .ctf_frame is specified.
 - bugfix: use startswith in .cfi_sections. Earlier, strcmp was being
   used incorrectly.
 - generate .ctf_frame section even if there are no FDEs (no functions
   with unwind information).  A .ctf_frame section with no FDEs is valid.
   Such a CTF Frame section will have a valid header with other fields
   set to appropriate values.
 - Support conditional compilation on the basis of support_ctf_frame_p.
   Compile in the CTF Frame generation APIs only when the tagets support
   CTF Frame.  Currently, gas emits CTF Frame unwind information for x86_64
    and aarch64 only.
 - doc: update documentation for .cfi_sections to include .ctf_frame
   section in the list.
[End of changes from V1]

[PS: Currently, the compiler has not been adapted to generate
".cfi_sections" with ".ctf_frame" in it.  The newly added command line
option of --gctf-frame provides an easy way to try out .ctf_frame support
in the toolchain.]

gas interprets the CFI directives to generate DWARF-based .eh_frame
info.  These internal DWARF structures are now consumed by
gen-ctf-frame.[ch] sub-system to, in turn, create the CTF Frame unwind
information.  These internal DWARF structures are read-only for the
purpose of CTF Frame unwind info generation.

CTF Frame unwind info generation does not impact .eh_frame unwind info
generation.  Both .eh_frame and .ctf_frame can co-exist in an ELF file,
if so desired by the user.

Recall that CTF Frame unwind information only contains the minimal
necessary information to generate backtraces and does not provide
information to recover all callee-saved registers.  The reason being
that callee-saved registers other than FP are not needed for stack
unwinding, and hence are not included in the .ctf_frame section.

Consequently, gen-ctf-frame.[ch] only needs to interpret a subset of
DWARF opcodes in gas.  More details follow.

[Set 1, Interpreted] The following opcodes are interpreted:
- DW_CFA_advance_loc
- DW_CFA_def_cfa
- DW_CFA_def_cfa_register
- DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset
- DW_CFA_offset
- DW_CFA_remember_state
- DW_CFA_restore_state
- DW_CFA_restore

[Set 2, Bypassed] The following opcodes are acknowledged but are not
necessary for generating CTF Frame unwind info:
- DW_CFA_undefined
- DW_CFA_same_value

Anything else apart from the two above-mentioned sets is skipped altogether.
This means that any function containing a CFI directive not in Set 1 or Set 2
above, will not have any CTF Frame unwind information generated for them.
Holes in instructions covered by FREs are not representable in the CTF
unwind format.

As few examples, following opcodes are not processed for .ctf_frame
generation, and are skipped:
- .cfi_personality*
- .cfi_*lsda
- .cfi_escape
- .cfi_negate_ra_state
- ...

Not processing .cfi_escape, .cfi_negate_ra_state will cause CTF Frame
unwind information to be absent for CTF FDEs that contain these CFI
directives, hence affecting the asynchronicity.

x86-64 and aarch64 backends need to have a few new definitions and functions
for .ctf_frame generation to provide gas with architecture specific
information like SP/FP/RA register numbers and a CTF Frame specific ABI
marker.

Lastly, the patch also implements an optimization for size, where
specific fragments containing CTF FRE start address and CTF FDE function
info are fixed up.  This is similar to other similar optimizations in
gas, where fragments are sized and fixed up when the associated symbols
can be resolved.  This optimization is controlled by a #define
CTF_FRE_START_ADDR_OPT and should be easy to turn off if needed.  The
optimization is on by default for both x86_64 and aarch64.

+/* CTF FRE type selection optimization is an optimization for size.
+
+   There are three flavors of CTF FRE representation in the binary format:
+     - ctf_frame_row_entry_addr1 where the FRE start address is 1 byte.
+     - ctf_frame_row_entry_addr2 where the FRE start address is 2 bytes.
+     - ctf_frame_row_entry_addr4 where the FRE start address is 4 bytes.
+
+   Note that in the CTF Frame format, all CTF FREs of a function use one
+   single representation.  The CTF FRE type itself is identified via the
+   information in the CTF FDE function info.
+
+   Now, to select the minimum required one from the list above, one needs to
+   make a decision based on the size (in bytes) of the function.
+
+   As a result, for this optimization, some fragments (generated with a new
+   type rs_ctf_frame) for the CTF Frame section are fixed up later.
+
+   This optimization (for size) is enabled by default.  */

[No changes from V4]

[Changes from V3]
 - Bugfixes around endian flipping code.
 - ctf_frame_find_fre () API now performs the checks according to the
   type of FDE:
   For CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRINC: return the entry where
   (PC >= fre_start_addr)
   For CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRMASK: return the entry where
   (PC & MASK >= MASK)
 - Additional testcases for CTF Frame encoder and endian flipping.
[End of changes from V3]

[Changes from V2]
 - consistent use of terminology around CTF Frame and its components.
 - Added testsuite for CTF frame decoder.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
 - bugfixes
[End of changes from V1]

libctfframe is a library that allows you to:
- decode a .ctf_frame section
- probe and inspect a .ctf_frame section
- encode (and eventually write) a .ctf_frame section.

This library is currently being used by the linker, readelf, objdump and
the unwinder.

The file include/ctf-frame-api.h defines the user-facing APIs for decoding,
encoding and probing .ctf_frame sections. A set of error codes together
with their error message strings are also defined.

Endian flipping is performed automatically at read and write time, if
cross-endianness is detected.

PS: libctfframe/configure has NOT been included in the patch.  Please
regenerate.

ChangeLog:

	* Makefile.def: Add libctfframe as new module with its
	dependencies.
	* Makefile.in: Regenerated.
	* binutils/Makefile.am: Add libctfframe.
	* binutils/Makefile.in: Regenerated.
	* configure: Regenerated
	* configure.ac: Add libctfframe to host_libs.
	* libctfframe/Makefile.am: New file.
	* libctfframe/Makefile.in: New file.
	* libctfframe/aclocal.m4: New file.
	* libctfframe/config.h.in: New file.
	* libctfframe/configure: New file.  <-- [REMOVED FROM THE PATCH.
	PLEASE REGENERATE.  ]
	* libctfframe/configure.ac: New file.
	* libctfframe/ctf-frame-error.c: New file.
	* libctfframe/ctf-frame-impl.h: New file.

+# $ac_aux_dir to '$srcdir/foo'.  In other projects, it is set to
+# '$srcdir', '$srcdir/..', or '$srcdir/../..'.
+#
+# Of course, Automake must honor this variable whenever it calls a
+# tool from the auxiliary directory.  The problem is that $srcdir (and
+# therefore $ac_aux_dir as well) can be either absolute or relative,
+# depending on how configure is run.  This is pretty annoying, since
+# it makes $ac_aux_dir quite unusable in subdirectories: in the top
+# source directory, any form will work fine, but in subdirectories a
+# relative path needs to be adjusted first.
+#
+# $ac_aux_dir/missing
+#    fails when called from a subdirectory if $ac_aux_dir is relative
+# $top_srcdir/$ac_aux_dir/missing
+#    fails if $ac_aux_dir is absolute,
+#    fails when called from a subdirectory in a VPATH build with
+#          a relative $ac_aux_dir
+#
+# The reason of the latter failure is that $top_srcdir and $ac_aux_dir
+# are both prefixed by $srcdir.  In an in-source build this is usually
+# harmless because $srcdir is '.', but things will broke when you
+# start a VPATH build or use an absolute $srcdir.
+#
+# So we could use something similar to $top_srcdir/$ac_aux_dir/missing,
+# iff we strip the leading $srcdir from $ac_aux_dir.  That would be:
+#   am_aux_dir='\$(top_srcdir)/'`expr "$ac_aux_dir" : "$srcdir//*\(.*\)"`
+# and then we would define $MISSING as
+#   MISSING="\${SHELL} $am_aux_dir/missing"
+# This will work as long as MISSING is not called from configure, because
+# unfortunately $(top_srcdir) has no meaning in configure.
+# However there are other variables, like CC, which are often used in
+# configure, and could therefore not use this "fixed" $ac_aux_dir.
+#

[Added in V4]

If you want to use these pickles in GNU poke, following is one way to
use the pickles.

$ objcopy --dump-section .ctf_frame=output_ctf_frame binary
$ poke output_ctf_frame

In the GNU poke program:
(poke) .load libctfframe/ctf-frame-dump.pk
(poke) .set omode tree
(poke) var ctf_frame = CTF_Frame_section @ 0#B

ChangeLog:

	* libctfframe/ctf-frame-dump.pk: New file.
	* libctfframe/ctf-frame.pk: Likewise.

[No Changes from V4]

[Changes from V3]
 - Fix generation of CTF Frame unwind info for pltn entries.  Use FDE
   type CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRMASK for pltn entries.
 - Testsuite: Split out the checks for CTF Frame unwind info for the plt
   entries into a separate test.  This test now serves to check the pltn
   unwind info generation on x86_64.
[End of changes from V3]

[Changes from V2]
 - consistent use of terminology around CTF Frame and its components.
 - few bugfixes:
   - CTF Frame unwind info generation for plt0 was incorrect.
   - do not update section size in _bfd_elf_write_section_ctf_frame for
   relocatable link.
 - added a testsuite in ld for CTF Frame.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
 - Refactor the code associated with the writing of .ctf_frame section
   for the dynamic .plt sections.
 - bugfix: Do not add a new segment PT_GNU_CTF_FRAME if .ctf_frame is
   an empty section.
 - ld: testsuite: fix ld bootstrap testcase by including libctfframe.
 - bugfix: linker-script: remove KEEP keyword for .ctf_frame secitons.
[End of changes from V1]

The linker merges all the input .ctf_frame sections.  When merging, the
linker verifies that all the input .ctf_frame sections have the same
abi/arch.

The linker uses libctfframe library to perform key actions on the
.ctf_frame sections - decode, read, and create output data.  This
implies buildsystem changes to make and install libctfframe before
libbfd.

The linker places the output .ctf_frame section in a new segment of its
own: PT_GNU_CTF_FRAME.

When a section is discarded from the final link, the corresponding
entries in the .ctf_frame section for those functions are also deleted.

This patch also adds support for generation of CTF Frame unwind
information for the .plt* sections on x86_64.  CTF Frame unwind info is
generated for IBT enabled PLT, lazy/non-lazy PLT. These bits are arguably
unsatisfactory in terms of code quality and will be improved upon.  Also
recall that the CTF Frame format for PLT entries needs adjustments, so
these chunks around .plt* sections are bound to evolve for the better.

The existing linker option --no-ld-generated-unwind-info has been
adapted to include the control of whether .ctf_frame unwind information
will be generated for the linker generated sections like PLT.

Changes to the linker script have been made as necessary.

[No changes from V4]

[Changes from V3]
 - Add a string "[m]" to mark FDE of type
   CTF_FRAME_DESCRIPTOR_ENTRY_TYPE_ADDRMASK as shown here:

    func idx [1]: pc = 0x401030, size = 64 bytes
    STARTPC[m]        CFA       FP        RA
    0000000000000000  sp+8      u         u
    000000000000000b  sp+16     u         u

[End of changes from V3]

[Changes from V2]
 - consistent use of terminology around CTF Frame and its components.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
 - readelf/objdump: spit out an introduction message - "Contents of the
   CTF Frame section XX"
 - readelf/objdump: use spaces instead of tabs for alignment of the
   textual dump.
[End of changes from V1]

This patch adds support for CTF Frame in readelf and objdump.

include/ChangeLog:

	* ctf-frame-api.h (dump_ctf_frame): New function declaration.

From: Weimin Pan <weimin.pan@oracle.com>

[No changes from V4, V3]

[Changes from V2]
 - consistent use of terminology around CTF Frame and its components.
[End of changes from V2]

[Changes from V1]
 - buildsystem: changes have been made to build libctfbacktrace only when
   --gctf-frame support is available in the assembler.  These buildsystem
   changes are necessary because the CTF Frame based unwinder needs the CTF
   Frame unwind info for itself to work.
[End of changes from V1]

A simple unwinder based on CTF Frame format.

PS: libctfframe/configure has NOT been included in the patch.  Please
regenerate.

config/ChangeLog:

	* ctf-frame.m4: New file.

include/ChangeLog:

	* ctf-backtrace-api.h: New file.

ChangeLog:

	* libctfframe/Makefile.am: Build backtrace functionality in its
	own library.  Install libctfbacktrace conditionally.
	* libctfframe/Makefile.in: Regenerate.
	* libctfframe/aclocal.m4: Regenerate.
	* libctfframe/configure: Regenerate. <-- [REMOVED FROM THE
	PATCH.  PLEASE REGENERATE.  ]
	* libctfframe/configure.ac: Check if gas supports --gctf-frame
	command line option.
	* libctfframe/ctf-backtrace-err.c: New file.
	* libctfframe/ctf-backtrace.c: New file.
	* libctfframe/ttest.c: New file.

[No changes from V4, V3, V2, V1]

Both gdb and sim need buildsystem fixes to now include libctfframe for a
successful build.

gdb/ChangeLog:
	* acinclude.m4: Fix GDB_AC_CHECK_BFD to include libctfframe.
	* Makefile.in: Bring in libctfframe for linking.
	* configure.ac: Check for static or shared.
	* configure: Regenerated.

sim/common/ChangeLog:
	* sim/common/Make-common.in: Bring in libctfframe.a for linking.

Hi people.

Any chance we can have a review for this patch series?
If it helps, we could push it to an user branch in the git repo.

> This is version 5 of the previously sent RFC series.

> The commit log of each patch in the current patch series specifies the changes
> from the version V4 of the respective patch.  Briefly, following are the main 
> changes in the current version V5 as compared to V4:
>
> 1. Assembler testsuite has additional testcases.  In general, the
> as/ld/unwinder support for CTF Frame format has been further tested in this
> version of the patch series for both x86_64 and aarch64.
> 2. libctfbacktrace is the library which provides a simple unwinder based on CTF
> Frame.  The current patch series now includes a testsuite for the unwinder
> based on CTF Frame.
>
> CTF Frame support V5 patch series has been regression tested on a host of
> targets with no regressions.
>
> Important note: libctfframe/configure has NOT been included in the patch
> series, as it causes the size of some patches to go beyond the allowed limit.
> Please regenerate the libctfframe/configure after applying the series.
>
> Please comment and provide feedback, it will help shape the format.  One of the
> outstanding item where feedback from folks will help is:
>
> 1. What is a good place for an unwinder based on CTF Frame format ? Currently
> to facilitate discussion, it is presented in a library of its own:
> libctfbacktrace which, in turn, uses the libctfframe library for decoding the
> .ctf_frame section for unwinding.  We brainstormed a bit about the possible
> candidates being libbacktace, libgcc or libunwind ? Are there any
> recommendations ?

I applied the patch series, regenerated libctfframe/configure, and ran
my normal set of regression tests.  The libctfframe tests failed on
every target.  On native x86_64-linux:

libctfframe/testsuite/libctfframe.decode/bigendian_data.c:91:24: warning: too many arguments for format 
[-Wformat-extra-args]
   91 |       fprintf (stderr, "Decode: Fail to get funcdesc\n", ctf_frame_errmsg (err));
      |                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On any cross-target I get ERROR: $target-cc does not exist, or
complaints like ./.libs/libctfframe.a(libctfframe_la-ctf-frame.o):
Relocations in generic ELF (EM: 62).  That's due to trying to link
host objects into a target executable.

So, no, the patch series is not OK without that fixed.  I did glance
over the patches and other than that they look OK, but I would expect
Nick Alcock to handle most of the review.

Happy to. (I should have been doing more internal reviews than I did,
but my relative dilatoriness means I can look on this series with fresh
and picky eyes!)

(I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks, but I'll see if I can get my
decks cleared for a pile of reviewing before that. I don't want this to
hang over everyone for ages just because I'm busy.)

I will look into these cross-target failures etc and post V6 with fixes.

Thanks for trying the patch series out and reporting these. My testing 
workflow was carelessly missing libctfframe folder for regression 
testing for cross-builds.
