Hi,

I've pretty much hit a wall on this, so I will have to ask for help
now.

The attached is what I have so far in my attempt to frame-ify
avr-tdep.c. As it stands, things kinda work. I can 'step' around a
program fine.

Things go wrong as soon as I try to 'next' over a function call, gdb
goes into an infinite loop. If I 'step' down into a function called
from main(), a backtrace never gets me back to main. Here's a dump of
the backtrace output (I'll forego the infinite loop output to save
some bandwidth 8-):

func1 () at tst.c:23
23          struct cc var = {0};        /* This uses memset()! */
(gdb) bt

}

(l={stack=0x80000e,code=0xd0},r={stack=0x8010f9,code=0xd0}) -> 1 }
This frame inner-to next frame (corrupt stack?)
(gdb)


I'm pretty confused as to how frames are getting chained up and
unwound. I suspose that I'm not thinking about the the SP in the
proper manner in relation to the frames.

Could some kind soul lend me some insight?

Thanks.

/* AVR Background:

   (AVR micros are pure Harvard Architecture processors.)

   The AVR family of microcontrollers have three distinctly different memory
   spaces: flash, sram and eeprom. The flash is 16 bits wide and is used for
   the most part to store program instructions. The sram is 8 bits wide and is
   used for the stack and the heap. Some devices lack sram and some can have
   an additional external sram added on as a peripheral.

   The eeprom is 8 bits wide and is used to store data when the device is
   powered down. Eeprom is not directly accessible, it can only be accessed
   via io-registers using a special algorithm. Accessing eeprom via gdb's
   remote serial protocol ('m' or 'M' packets) looks difficult to do and is
   not included at this time.

   [The eeprom could be read manually via ``x/b <eaddr + AVR_EMEM_START>'' or
   written using ``set {unsigned char}<eaddr + AVR_EMEM_START>''.  For this to
   work, the remote target must be able to handle eeprom accesses and perform
   the address translation.]

   All three memory spaces have physical addresses beginning at 0x0. In
   addition, the flash is addressed by gcc/binutils/gdb with respect to 8 bit
   bytes instead of the 16 bit wide words used by the real device for the
   Program Counter.

   In order for remote targets to work correctly, extra bits must be added to
   addresses before they are send to the target or received from the target
   via the remote serial protocol. The extra bits are the MSBs and are used to
   decode which memory space the address is referring to. */

     Note: I chose these values so as to be consistent with bfd vma
     addresses.

     TRoth/2002-04-08: There is already a conflict with very large programs
     in the mega128. The mega128 has 128K instruction bytes (64K words),
     thus the Most Significant Bit is 0x10000 which gets masked off my
     AVR_MEM_MASK.

     The problem manifests itself when trying to set a breakpoint in a
     function which resides in the upper half of the instruction space and
     thus requires a 17-bit address.

     For now, I've just removed the EEPROM mask and changed AVR_MEM_MASK
     from 0x00ff0000 to 0x00f00000. Eeprom is not accessible from gdb yet,
     but could be for some remote targets by just adding the correct offset
     to the address and letting the remote target handle the low-level
     details of actually accessing the eeprom. */

   This function decodes an AVR function prologue to determine:
     1) the size of the stack frame
     2) which registers are saved on it
     3) the offsets of saved regs
   This information is stored in the avr_unwind_cache structure.

   Some devices lack the sbiw instruction, so on those replace this:
        sbiw    r28, XX
   with this:
        subi    r28,lo8(XX)
        sbci    r29,hi8(XX)

   A typical AVR function prologue with a frame pointer might look like this:
        push    rXX        ; saved regs
        ...
        push    r28
        push    r29

        out     __SREG__,__tmp_reg__
        out     __SP_H__,r29

   A typical AVR function prologue without a frame pointer might look like
   this:
        push    rXX        ; saved regs
        ...

   A main function prologue looks like this:
        ldi     r28,lo8(<RAM_ADDR> - <LOCALS_SIZE>)
        ldi     r29,hi8(<RAM_ADDR> - <LOCALS_SIZE>)
        out     __SP_H__,r29
        out     __SP_L__,r28

   A signal handler prologue looks like this:
        push    __zero_reg__
        push    __tmp_reg__
        in      __tmp_reg__, __SREG__
        push    __tmp_reg__
        clr     __zero_reg__
        push    rXX             ; save registers r18:r27, r30:r31
        ...
        push    r28             ; save frame pointer
        push    r29
        in      r28, __SP_L__
        in      r29, __SP_H__
        sbiw    r28, <LOCALS_SIZE>
        out     __SP_H__, r29
        out     __SP_L__, r28
        
   A interrupt handler prologue looks like this:
        sei
        push    __zero_reg__
        push    __tmp_reg__
        in      __tmp_reg__, __SREG__
        push    __tmp_reg__
        clr     __zero_reg__
        push    rXX             ; save registers r18:r27, r30:r31
        ...
        push    r28             ; save frame pointer
        push    r29

        sei     
        out     __SP_L__, r28

   A `-mcall-prologues' prologue looks like this (Note that the megas use a
   jmp instead of a rjmp, thus the prologue is one word larger since jmp is a
   32 bit insn and rjmp is a 16 bit insn):

Can you try the exact same operation with a GDB that doesn't have the 
changes?  That way it should be possible to compare the two traces 
side-by-side and see where things are going wrong.

A guess is that it is getting the unwound PC value wrong.  For the d10v 
I had to make two tweaks:

- abort the prologue scanner when it reached PC if that is before the 
end of the prologue
This stopped the prologue getting the unwound PC's location wrong.  It 
may not have yet executed the save PC instruction.

- track the register that the PC is in before it is saved
The code needs to be able to unwind the PC value in the prologue before 
it has been saved on the stack.

Thanks for the nudge Andrew.

Any idea how to make this piece of code sane? I'm not thrilled with what I 
had to do to get the PC read and converted then finally stored in bufferp. 
This function is analogous to saved_regs_unwinder() in d10v-tdep.c.

static void
avr_saved_regs_unwinder (struct frame_info *next_frame,
                         CORE_ADDR *this_saved_regs,
                         int regnum, int *optimizedp,
                         enum lval_type *lvalp, CORE_ADDR *addrp,
                         int *realnump, void *bufferp)
{
  if (this_saved_regs[regnum] != 0)
    {
      *optimizedp = 0;
      *lvalp = lval_memory;
      *addrp = this_saved_regs[regnum];
      *realnump = -1;
      if (bufferp != NULL)
        {
          /* Read the value in from memory.  */

          if (regnum == AVR_PC_REGNUM)
            {
              /* Reading the return PC from the PC register is slightly
                 abnormal.  register_size(AVR_PC_REGNUM) says it is 4 bytes,
                 but in reality, only two bytes (3 in upcoming mega256) are
                 stored on the stack.

                 Also, note that the value on the stack is an addr to a word
                 not a byte, so we will need to multiply it by two at some
                 point.  */

              ULONGEST pc;
              unsigned char buf[2];

              read_memory (this_saved_regs[regnum], buf, sizeof (buf));
              pc = (extract_unsigned_integer (buf, 2) * 2) >> 8;
              memcpy (bufferp, &pc, sizeof(pc));
            }
          else
            {
              read_memory (this_saved_regs[regnum], bufferp,
                           register_size (current_gdbarch, regnum));
            }
        }

      return;
    }

  /* No luck, assume this and the next frame have the same register
     value.  If a value is needed, pass the request on down the chain;
     otherwise just return an indication that the value is in the same
     register as the next frame.  */
  frame_register_unwind (next_frame, regnum, optimizedp, lvalp, addrp,
			 realnump, bufferp);
}


The last problem I need to solve I think is also related to register
unwinding. If I step down into a function, then 'up' to move up the stack
frame, examining a local variable gives the wrong value. I need to do some
more research into why this is happening though. Am I on the right track
with thinking the register unwinding could be the problem? Maybe I'm setting 
the frame base incorrectly since it doesn't seem to resolve the variable's 
memory address?

Is the PC 2 bytes, or that only two bytes are saved?  You don't have a 
d10v PC which is 2 bytes but addresses words?

Is this arrithmetic correct - I understand the ``* 2'' but not the ``>>8''.

>               pc = (extract_unsigned_integer (buf, 2) * 2) >> 8;

this memcpy will need to be a

	store_unsigned_integer (bufferp, pc, SIZEOF_AVR_PC);

Sounds like you're on the right track.  The new unwind code typically 
has different:

	frame ID.stack_addr
	frame {base,locals,args} address

the former is the address of the previous frame's inner-most stack 
address while the latter is the clasic frame pointer.

:)Is the PC 2 bytes, or that only two bytes are saved?  You don't have a 
:)d10v PC which is 2 bytes but addresses words?

The PC is stored on the stack as an unsigned 16-bit value which addresses
64K of 16-bit wide instructions. The problem is our remote targets perform 
the word to byte addressing convertion before sending the PC register value 
over the RSP. In this case, I have to read the PC from memory, so the remote 
target only thinks it is making a memory read (which by the way uses a byte 
addressing scheme). After reading the PC from memory, I need to convert it 
to a byte address (multiply by 2).

That's the ugly part I don't understand. It seems to give the correct
result, but now that I think about it more, it could mean that my memory
address is off by 1. I will have to re-examine that.

:)
:)this memcpy will need to be a
:)

:)

I tried that, but it performed a endian byte swap and the PC came out wrong.
I dug around and saw what looked to be too many byte swaps.

I think found the root of the ugliness. When the avr performs a call 
instruction the PC is pushed onto the stack, but it turns out that it is 
pushed in big endian order. For the most part though, the avr is little 
endian.

That would explain it.  I guess it needs an explicit big endian extract 
followed by a little endian store (via store_unsigned_integer).
