During the install, symlinks are added from libunwind-<arch> to
libunwind-generic. However, on platforms that don't support
symlinking (such as Windows), the $(LN_S) macro is defined
as 'cp -p' instead. This works fine, except that since the
target of the symlink is a relative path, the copy will only
succeed if the current directory is the directory that contains
the file.
The solution to this problem suggested in the Autotools manual
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Extending)
is to simply cd into the correct directory first. This patch
makes that change for the symlinks that are being made during install.
[ edit: use relative path for the link name as well ]
Currently, libunwind-setjmp is built whenever local unwinding is
built. This patch adds an explicit flag to control it instead.
The default if not specified is to follow the old behavior.
This change adds a manual override to control building of the ptrace
library, similar to the existing --enable-coredump option. The
default is set based on the existence of sys/ptrace.h, allowing it
to be automatically disabled for platforms that do not have ptrace.
Make sure that we have included `config.h' before checking HAVE_LZMA.
This makes a difference at least on MIPS, where we include `elfxx.c'
directly. For other platforms this does not make much difference, as we
are already indirectly including `config.h' from other headers.
We do not modify `_UPT_reg_offset', so let's set it `const'. Given that
the array is exported, it's technically possible that some library user
is actually modifying the content, but does not seem really all that
likely.
Add support for the 32bit SuperH architecture running Linux.
Specifically, support is added for SH4, and support for earlier SH
versions and to the 64bit SH5 are left out. This was tested in qemu with
a little-endian SH4 debian image & GCC 4.7 cross compiler.
Add MIPS support to the coredump library. Explicit support for the MIPS
program counter register is added so that we can start backtracing from
the program counter value we read from a core dump. The PC register
support was not strictly required for local backtracing, and we will in
fact just plug the return address to the PC register in getcontext().
I have only tested the 32bit "OABI" paths.

Instead of maintaining a pointer to the `sos_memory' array, maintain an
index that tells the next free position. When atomic operations are
available, the allocation boils down to a single fetch-and-add
operation.
To ensure that we return properly aligned pointers from sos_alloc(),
MAX_ALIGN must be a power-of-two. On i386 the power-of-two assumption
fails as sizeof(long double) = 12. Fix this by rounding up to 16.
Use the __BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT__ macro provided by GCC for sos_alloc()
allocation alignment. The macro gives ``the largest alignment ever used
for any data type on the target machine you are compiling for.''
__BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT__ also has some other nice properties, e.g. it is
power-of-two on all architectures (note that on i386, sizeof(long
double) = 12), and on some architectures (e.g. SuperH) the alignment
requirement can be lower than sizeof(long double).
tdep_get_func_addr in ppc64 passes NULL for the last argument of
as->access_mem. tdep_get_func_addr is called by elf_w(lookup_symbol),
which in turn is called by elf_w(get_proc_name_in_image).
elf_w(get_proc_name_in_image) is part of the API, and is only passed an
unw_addr_space_t, not a unw_cursor_t, meaning that we cannot recover the
UPT_info on the PPC64 platform.
This could be fixed by giving libunwind the knowledge to perform
relocations itself, thus not needing to look at the running image to
determine function addresses.
Disable the building of libunwind-coredump except on x86_64 and x86
(where implimentations exsist).
Allow overriding of this autodetection via --enable-coredump and
--disable-coredump.
Rename the `ALIGN' macro to `UNW_ALIGN', and move it from
`_UCD_internal.h' to `libunwind_i.h' so that we can share it with the
mempool code. `ALIGN' was clashing with system headers on FreeBSD:

Unwinding over ptrace and unwinding coredump fail to lookup the
.debug_frame dwarf data when the ELF file text segment virtual address
is non-zero. Looking at some binaries, the virtual address is non-zero
for non-pie binaries, and zero for PIC shared libraries and PIE
executables.
The core dump unwinder can be used for demonstrating the bug. Without
this patch, the unwinding fails badly (testing with a ARM qemu image):

After successfully stepping the cursor on ARM, the proc info is
invalidated only in dwarf_step(). Invalidate the proc info also when
stepping with the non-dwarf based methods. This fixes
unw_get_proc_info() returning stale data.
The core dump unwinder can be used for demonstrating the bug. When
unwinding based only on DWARF data, the proc info is correct:
$ UNW_ARM_UNWIND_METHOD=1 ./test-coredump-unwind core `cat backing_files` 2>/dev/null
ip=0x000086d8 proc=000086d4-000086dc handler=0x00000000 lsda=0x00000000

ip=0x76e3ac3b proc=76e3aba0-76e3acec handler=0x00000000 lsda=0x00000000
When unwinding based only on the exidx method, we see the proc info
lagging behind:
$ UNW_ARM_UNWIND_METHOD=4 ./test-coredump-unwind core `cat backing_files` 2>/dev/null
ip=0x000086d8 proc=000086d4-000086db handler=0x00000000 lsda=0x00000000

ip=0x000085c3 proc=76e3aba0-76e3ae4b handler=0x00000000 lsda=0x00000000
Finally, with this patch applied, we get the desired proc info also with
the exidx unwinder:
$ UNW_ARM_UNWIND_METHOD=4 ./test-coredump-unwind core `cat backing_files` 2>/dev/null
ip=0x000086d8 proc=000086d4-000086db handler=0x00000000 lsda=0x00000000

Implement the Linux version of _UCD_access_reg() for ARM. We can
sidestep the register number remapping, as the libunwind register
numbers match one-to-one to the ELF core file register numbers.
Just pass potentially NULL pointers to free() in the error path in
load_debug_frame(). Saved 40 bytes of code in libunwind.so on ARM -O2
thumb build at the expense of slightly slower execution.
Stop pretending that unw_get_proc_info() works on PPC, and instead give
an error back to the caller. As far as I can tell, none of the libunwind
tests clear out the `unw_proc_info_t' before passing it to
unw_get_proc_info(), so they would end up working on garbage data.

When cross-compiling libunwind with optimizations (-O1 or higher),
gcc-4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) optimizes away the memory
writes prior to the inline asm() statement in arm_local_resume() in the
non-signal-frame path, causing the `regs' array to be only allocated on
the stack, but not populated. This means that we are restoring garbage
to the registers.
As suggested in the GCC docs, add a fixed size input memory constraint
for the array content. This is enough to get the desired code to be
generated.
Adding __builtin_unreachable() to the point that we should never reach
was also in itself enough to inhibit the optimization. It also reduces
the function size by a few instructions.
Check the endianness earlier in unw_create_addr_space() on all
architectures to avoid leaking the dynamically allocated address space
struct.
This was already fixed for ARM in commit cf6a998796 ("Fix memory leak
in ARM unw_create_addr_space()"). Move the endianness check also on ARM
to avoid malloc() & free() in the error case.
Properly export the symbol names also on MIPS. `make check' was

This reverts commit c9c5a40be1.
dwarf_get() returns 0 on success. We should continue unwinding
in that case.
TBD: investigate test-ptrace failure on some platforms.
If dwarf_get returns 0 (indicating the end of call chain), we should
not override the return value to 1. This may result in the caller
continuing to unwind and getting spurious errors.
In the commit d04dc94cc2, the check for
dwarf.ip == 0 was removed from non-dwarf walker in x86_64 version of
unw_step(). Apparently this broke the detection of the end of frame
chain when NULL %rbp is specified, because the case just marked
dwarf.ip as 0. Explicitly set ret to 0 to indicate the end of
iteration.
Older kernels interpret the pid argument of the process information
sysctls as pid only. If libunwind UPT consumer passed tid to _UPT_create,
tdep_get_elf_image() returns error due to sysctls failure. Provide a
slow workaround by searching for a process owning the supplied tid if
sysctl returned ESRCH.
Currently the expression evaluation always succeeds,
and possible error is not propagated to the caller.
The ',' operator makes the condition always return 0.

Commit 297d9cd07d (Fix for failing test-setjmp)
breaks non glibc systems, since __GLIBC_PREREQ is not defined there.
As a consequence, preprocessor aborts with an error.
Trying to hide __GLIBC_PREREQ under #ifdef __GLIBC would require
either code duplication, or moving the longjmp implementation into
the separate file, which is included twice. In fact, I am not sure
in any use of the __GLIBC_PREREQ at the compile time, because the
compiled code can be run on the later version of glibc.
Below is the patch, tested on FreeBSD x86/x86_64 and Scientific Linux 6.1
x86_64. I compile the code always, but keep it in under unused static
symbol. In principle, the code could be optimized out by linker.
[ Minor formatting edits: asharma@fb.com ]
The crashes were tracked down to f->rpb_cfa_offset being incorrect.
The problem is that {rsp,rbp}_cfa_offset only have 15 bits, but for
SIGRETURN frame they are filled with:
// src/x86_64/Gstash_frame.c
f->cfa_reg_offset = d->cfa - c->sigcontext_addr;
f->rbp_cfa_offset = DWARF_GET_LOC(d->loc[RBP]) - d->cfa;
f->rsp_cfa_offset = DWARF_GET_LOC(d->loc[RSP]) - d->cfa;
The problem is that the delta here can be arbitrarily large when
sigaltstack is used, and can easily overflow the 15 and 30-bit fields.
When signal handler starts running, the stack layout is:
... higher addresses ...
ucontext
CFA->
__restore_rt (== pretcode in rt_sigframe from
linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/sigframe.h)
SP ->
... sighandler runs on this stack.
... lower addresses ...
This makes it very convenient to find ucontext from the CFA.

The problem is actually two-fold:
First, the loops in {sig,}longjmp.c are "do { ... } while (unw_step() >= 0);"
But unw_step() returns 0 on reaching the end of the chain (_start),
and the loop should stop there.
The second problem is that with this commit:
c67da0b50e
glibc obfuscates value of SP in jmp_buf, so we might as well just give up.
Patch attached.

The ARM EABI does not use the .eh_frame and .eh_frame_hdr sections for unwinding. Therefore it doesn't make sense to call dwarf_step if CONFIG_DEBUG_FRAME is not defined.
Define unw_tdep_context rather than using ucontext_t in order to support
systems that lack ucontext.h. Note that POSIX.1-2008 removed getcontext,
makecontext and swapcontext from its specification.

Glibc calls thread-specific dtors in the order in which the keys were added,
so the first dtor is the trace_cache_free() one. Then thread-specific
data for some other key is free()d, which calls into unw_backtrace(),
which uses dangling cache and munmapped cache->frames.

On FreeBSD, as well as on the Solaris < 10, weak pthread_once stub is
always exported from libc. But it does nothing, which means that if
threaded library is not loaded, then pthread_once() call do not actually
call the initializer finction. The construct
if (likely (pthread_once != 0))
{
pthread_once(&trace_cache_once, &trace_cache_init_once);
then fails to initialize the trace cache on x86_64.
Work around by checking that the initializer was indeed called.
Note that this can break if libthr is loaded dynamically, but my belief
is that there is no platforms which allow dynamic loading of the threading

This keeps the definition on IA64 and all the other architectures in sync with
the declaration of _UPTi_find_unwind_table. This also mimics the behaviour of
what's done for local unwinding and allows the function to provide more than
one way to undwind.

In case the user doesn't specify whether to unwind using the ARM specific
unwind tabler or DWARF info libunwind should prefer the latter. Since DWARF
expressions are more powerful than the ARM specific unwind tables
arm_find_proc_info is changed to check for DWARF first.

Initialize the return value with -1 in order prevent arm_find_proc_info from
returning zero. This could happen in case the environemtn variable
UNW_ARM_UNWIND_METHOD doesn't allow exidx and/or dwarf unwinding.

Rename the dwarf dl_iterate_phdr callback routine and the callback_data
structure to dwarf_callback and dwarf_callback_data. Make it available
within libunwind by declaring the two at the dwarf.h header file.

A previous change reduced the number of arguments that this function
tasks, but one call at least did not get updated, resulting in a build
failure on ia64-linux. This patch fixes it.
On ia64-hpux version 11.31, <sys/ptrace.h> has been removed.
This patch adds a configure check for this header file, and only
includes <sys/ptrace.h> if it exists.
This patch add support for resuming at a certain stack frame even if signal
frames are involved. For restoring the registers the trampoline (sigreturn)
is used. RT and non-RT signal frames are handled for both >=2.6.18 and
<2.6.18 kernels.

This patch adds a few more patterns to the check that detects if the IP

Insert static branch prediction predicates in useful places and avoid
unnecessary code in the hottest paths. Bypass unnecessary indirect
calls, in particular to access_mem(), when known to be safe.
Since the fast unwinding code path doesn't need the full context,
a faster target dependent getcontext is implemented.

Dropping the extra frame for unw_backtrace itself using unw_step is
approximately 15% slower than skipping the frame in tdep_trace. So
drop the frame in the latter, and make the function a private
implementation detail for libunwind, not an exported interface.
Also moves unw_getcontext call back into unw_backtrace to avoid an
extra call frame in case slow_backtrace does not get inlined into
unw_backtrace.
Adds new function to perform a pure stack walk without unwinding,
functionally similar to backtrace() but accelerated by an address
attribute cache the caller maintains across calls.
Usually we don't have a valid location for the SP but we keep calculating
the value of the CFA. The ARM backend should return this value instead.

Using malloc is not an option since unw_init_local and unw_step are supposed
to be async signal safe. Therefore this code path can be removed.

This eliminates the arm_stackframe and therefore the need to synchronize the
two models. It also clears the way for unwinding call stacks with mixed
