Fixes an error reported by Tristan and which can be evidenced by
doing:
% powerpc-elf-gdb
(gdb) target sim --sysroot=var
Invalid option: --sysroot=/var
[...]
sim/ppc/ChangeLog:
* psim.c (psim_options): Fix length of comparison when checking
for --sysroot= option.
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_init_private_section_data): Add an assertion
that the output section has an allocated bfd_elf_section_data
structure.
* elfxx-mips.c (mips_elf_check_symbols): Do not create a stub for
symbols in sections that have been removed by garbage collection.
* emultempl/mipself.em (mips_add_stub_section): Do not add stubs
for sections that have been removed by garbage collection.
The testcase, at some point, is trying to change the contents
of a string that was defined as follow:
char *str = "hello, testsuite";
The problem is that the string is constant, and str is never used
to change the contents of the string in the program, so the compiler
is free to allocate it in a read-only section. This is what happens
on x86-windows, for instance.
As a result, trying to change the contents of the string during
the `python gdb.inferiors()[0].write_memory (addr, str)' results
in the following error:
(gdb) python gdb.inferiors()[0].write_memory (addr, str)
gdb: write target memory, 5 bytes at 0x00403064
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
gdb.MemoryError: Cannot access memory at address 0x403064
Error while executing Python code.
This patch prevents this from happening by declaring str as an
array rather than a pointer.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.python/py-inferior.c (f2): Make str an array rather
than a pointer.
* gdb.python/py-inferior.exp: Adjust testcase accordingly.
This patch improves the error message when an invalid option is
detected, by also printing the option that actually caused the error.
For instance, from GDB:
(gdb) target sim --hello
Invalid option: --hello
Usage:
[...]
We also added the usage after an invalid long-name option (Eg: --hello)
to be in line with what's being done for all other invalid options
being detected.
sim/ppc/ChangeLog:
* psim.c (psim_options): Add option that cause the error
in invalid-option error messages. Print the usage when
detecting an invalid long-name option.
There was a recent change that cuased the "target sim" command
to add a --sysroot option to the argument vector passed down to
the simulator. This caused a failure in the powerpc simulator,
as it did not recognize it. This patch fixes the problem by adding
support for the --sysroot option (it ignores it).
sim/ppc/ChangeLog:
* psim.c (psim_options): Accept and ignore `--sysroot=...'.
* readelf.c (process_version_sections): Handle binaries containing
corrupt version information.
(process_symbol_table): Stop processing a symbol's version
information if it could not be read in.
(get_data): Add comment describing the function.
(process_section_headers): Set dynamic_strings_length to 0 if the
dynamic strings could not be read in.
(process_dynamic_section): Likewise.
(process_section_groups): Stop processing the group information if
the data could not be read in.
(hppa_processs_unwind): Assert that there is only one string table
in the file.
(arm_process_unwind): Likewise.
(ia64_process_unwind): Likewise.
Set the size of the unwind auxillary information to 0 if the data
could not be read.
(load_specific_debug_section): Handle a failure to read in the
section.
(process_mips_specific): Stop display of the PLT GOT section if it
could not be read in.
