Subject: [PATCH v4] gdb/arm: Stop unwinding on error, but do not assert
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2022 20:11:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221013181135.688646-1-torbjorn.svensson@foss.st.com> (raw)

When it's impossible to read the FPCCR and XPSR, the unwinding is
unpredictable as the it's not possible to determine the correct
frame size or padding.
The only sane thing to do in this condition is to stop the unwinding.

Example session wihtout this patch:

  (gdb) bt
  #0  SVC_Handler () at .../GPIO/GPIO_EXTI/Src/stm32f4xx_it.c:112
  .../gdb/arm-tdep.c:3594: internal-error: arm_m_exception_cache: Assertion `safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer (FPCCR, ARM_INT_REGISTER_SIZE, byte_order, &fpccr)' failed.
  A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
  further debugging may prove unreliable.
  ----- Backtrace -----
  0x5583bfb2a157 gdb_internal_backtrace_1
  ...
  ---------------------

  This is a bug, please report it.  For instructions, see:
  <https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/>.

  Aborted (core dumped)

Example session with this patch:

  (gdb) bt
  #0  SVC_Handler () at .../GPIO/GPIO_EXTI/Src/stm32f4xx_it.c:112
  warning: Could not fetch required FPCCR content.  Further unwind is impossible.
  #1  <signal handler called>
  (gdb)
