Subject: How to get past ebreak instruction on RISC-V
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2021 16:07:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8c7f5386d98b278267611a9a78aea0a0cb5966f3.camel@fit.cvut.cz> (raw)
Hi,
I'm working on RISC-V compiler. To ease debugging of compiled code
I'm inserting `ebreak` instruction to interesting place (entry/exit
points or as a placeholder for unimplemented features).
For example, the code might look like:
(gdb) disas 0x0000003FD6A36024, 0x0000003FD6A36048
Dump of assembler code from 0x3fd6a36024 to 0x3fd6a36048:
=> 0x0000003fd6a36024: ebreak
0x0000003fd6a36028: sd ra,-8(s11)
0x0000003fd6a3602c: addi s11,s11,-16
0x0000003fd6a36030: ld t3,80(s10)
0x0000003fd6a36034: addiw a0,zero,42
0x0000003fd6a36038: addi s11,s11,16
0x0000003fd6a3603c: ret
0x0000003fd6a36040: blt s11,t3,0x3fd6a36000
0x0000003fd6a36044: ebreak
End of assembler dump.
(gdb)
When compiled function is (attempted to) run, it stops on `ebreak`
as expected:
Thread 2 "main" received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
[Switching to Thread 0x3ff7e681e0 (LWP 428777)]
0x0000003fd6a36024 in ?? ()
How can I get past the `ebreak` so I can `stepi` thought the following
instructions and debug? Thanks!
Best, Jan
