Much like the bug in issue #1031 and commit
f6f6f0bf13e4c708cb501202b83a6327a0f00e31 pointers can also escape to
the heap and then have a zero address (and no children) when we
autodereference.
1. Mark autodereferenced escaped variables with a 0 address as
unreadable.
2. Add guards to the pretty printers for unsafe.Pointer and pointers.
Fixes#1075
Depending on how the runtime schedules our goroutines we can get
unlucky and have the first call to runtime.newstack we intercept be for
a different goroutine (usually the garbage collector).
Only check stacktraces that happen on the same goroutine that executed
main.main.
* command/terminal: allow restart to change process args
Add -args flag to "restart" command. For example, "restart -args a b c" will
pass args a b c to the new process.
Add "-c" flag to pass the checkpoint name. This is needed to disambiguate the
checkpoint name and arglist.
Reverted unnecessary changes.
* Applied reviewer comments.
Vendored argv.
Change the syntax of restart. When the target is is in recording mode, it always
interprets the args as a checkpoint. Otherwise, it interprets the args as
commandline args. The flag "-args" is still there, to handle the case in which
the user wants to pass an empty args on restart.
* Add restartargs.go.
Change "restart -args" to "restart -noargs" to clarify that this flag is used to
start a process with an empty arg.
The runtime calls into g0 in many places, not necessarily using
runtime.systemstack or runtime.asmcgocall.
One example of this is the call to runtime.newstack inside
runtime.morestack.
If we stop the process while one goroutine is executing
runtime.newstack we would be unable to fully scan its stack because we
don't know that we have to switch back to the goroutine stack after
runtime.newstack.
Instead of tracking down every possible way that the runtime switches
to g0 we switch to the goroutine stack immediately after the top of the
stack, unless cgo is being executed on the systemstack.
Fixes#1066
Adds a configuration option (show-location-expr) that when activated
will cause the whatis command to also print the DWARF location
expression for a variable.
So far we have evaluated the locspec "+0" the same way we evaluate all
"+n" locspecs, this means that we turn the current PC into a file:line
pair, then we turn back the file:line into a PC address.
Normally this is harmless, however all autogenerated code returns the
source position "<autogenerated>:1" which resolves back to the very
first autogenerated instruction in the code.
This messes up the behaviour of the "disassemble" command which uses
the locspec "+0" to figure out what code to disassemble if no arguments
are passed.
We should make +0 always resolve to the current PC (of the given scope)
so that clients can use +0 as a default locspec.
On macOS, externally linked programs will have an abbrev for
DW_TAG_subprogram without the haschildren flag set. We should handle
this case instead of expecting all DW_TAG_subprogram entries to have
list of children.
Fixes#1034
When creating a stack trace we should switch between the goroutine
stack and the system stack (where cgo code is executed) as appropriate
to reconstruct the logical stacktrace.
Goroutines that are currently executing on the system stack will have
the SystemStack flag set, frames of the goroutine stack will have a
negative FrameOffset (like always) and frames of the system stack will
have a positive FrameOffset (which is actually just the CFA value for
the frame).
Updates #935
Either the CPU or the kernel may not support the calls we do when
retrieving floating point registers, this isn't an error we should
propagate.
Also improve the error reporint of pkg/proc/native.fpRegisters.
Fixes#1022
StepBreakpoints are set on CALL instructions, when they are hit we
disassemble the current instruction, figure out the destination address
and set a breakpoint after the prologue of the called function.
In order to disassemble the current instruction we disassemble the area
of memory starting from PC and going to PC+15 (because 15 bytes is the
maximum length of one instruction on AMD64). This means that we won't
just disassemble one instruction but also a few instructions following
it ending with one truncated instruction.
This usually works fine but sometimes the disassembler will panic with
an array out of bounds error when trying to disassemble a truncated
instruction. To avoid this problem this commit changes the funciton
disassemble to take one extra parameter, singleInstr, when singleInstr
is set disassemble will quit after disassembling a single instruction.
Replace the unsafe.Pointer type of the buf field of channels with the
appropriate array type, allow expressions accessing member field of the
channel struct.
Fixes#962
Conditional breakpoints with unmet conditions would cause next and step
to skip the line.
This breakpoint changes the Kind field of proc.Breakpoint from a single
value to a bit field, each breakpoint object can represent
simultaneously a user breakpoint and one internal breakpoint (of which
we have several different kinds).
The breakpoint condition for internal breakpoints is stored in the new
internalCond field of proc.Breakpoint so that it will not conflict with
user specified conditions.
The breakpoint setting code is changed to allow overlapping one
internal breakpoint on a user breakpoint, or a user breakpoint on an
existing internal breakpoint. All other combinations are rejected. The
breakpoint clearing code is changed to clear the UserBreakpoint bit and
only remove the phisical breakpoint if no other bits are set in the
Kind field. ClearInternalBreakpoints does the same thing but clearing
all bits that aren't the UserBreakpoint bit.
Fixes#844
Move some duplicate code, related to breakpoints, that was in both
backends into a single place.
This is in preparation to solve issue #844 (conditional breakpoints
make step and next fail) which will make this common breakpoint code
more complicated.
Instead of only tracking a few cherrypicked registers in stack.go track
all DWARF registers.
This is needed for cgo code and for the locationlists emitted by go in
1.10:
* The debug_frame sections emitted by C compilers can not be used
without tracking all registers
* the loclists emitted by go1.10 need all registers of a frame to be
interpreted.
A thread could terminate between the point when we stop for a
breakpoint and the point where we send a stop signal to all threads, if
this happens setCurrentBreakpoints will fail with an error.
We should tolerate this.
For some reason this happens very frequently when running delve on
processes with the race detector enabed.
Adds test command line flag to compile target fixtures using the -race flag.
Multiple tests will fail because of https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22600
but eventually this should work.
1. Use a slice instead of a map to access standard and extended opcodes
(reduces BenchmarkStateMachine from ~12ms/op to ~7ms/op)
2. Cache StateMachine values for the entry point of functions.
gosymtab and gopclntab only contain informations about go code, linked
C code isn't there, we should use debug_line instead to also cover C.
Updates #935
* string to []rune
* string to []byte
* []rune to string
* []byte to string
* any pointer to uintptr
The string, []rune, []byte conversion pairs aligns this to the go
language.
The pointer -> uintptr conversion pair is symmetric to the uintptr ->
pointer that we already have.
Also lets the user specify any size for byte array types instead of
just the ones already used by the program, this can be used to read
arbitrary memory.
Fixes#548, #867
Make 'next' skip deferred functions unless they are called via a panic.
Call to a deferred function through 'return' are predictable, if the
user wants to step into them 'step' can be used but without this change
there is no way to avoid stepping into them.
Implements #956
On macOS we can also stop when we receive a signal,
propagate this reason upwards to the client.
Also clear internal breakpoints after an unrecovered-panic since they
can not be reached anymore.
Fixes#872
debugserver doesn't support qXfer:exec-file:read, and it doesn't return
the executable path in the response to qProcessInfoPID, however we can
find out the executable path by using jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos.
While we are waiting for the process to exit in native.(*Process).Kill
we could receive queued exception events, those must be continued or
the wait will never finish.
Before go1.9 embedded struct fields had name == "" in runtime and ==
type name in DWARF. After go1.9 both runtime and DWARF use a simplified
version of the type as name.
Embedded structs are distinguished from normal fields by setting a flag
in the runtime.structfield, for runtime, and by adding a custom
attribute in DWARF.
Splits out type parsing and go-specific Type hierarchy from
x/debug/dwarf, replace x/debug/dwarf with debug/dwarf everywhere,
remove x/debug/dwarf from vendoring.
Instead of panicing for sending on a closed channel, detect that the
process has exited and return a proper error message.
This patch also cleans up some spots where the Pid is omitted from the
error.
Fixes#920
* proc/native: make sure debugged executable can be deleted on windows
Delve opens debugged executable to read binary info it
contains, but it never closes the file. Windows will not
let you delete file that is opened. So close Process.bi
in Process.postExit, and actually call Process.postExit
from windows Process.Kill.
Also Windows sends some debugging events
(EXIT_PROCESS_DEBUG_EVENT event in particular) after Delve
calls TerminateProcess. The events need to be consumed by
debugger before debugged process will be released by
Windows. So call Process.waitForDebugEvent after
TerminateProcess in Process.Kill.
Fixes#398
* cmd/dlv: make TestIssue398 pass on darwin
* cmd/dlv: add comment for TestIssue398
* proc/native: wait for debuggee to exit before returning from windows Process.Kill
* proc/native: close process handle before returning from windows killProcess
* proc/native: remove not used Process.Process
When stepping through runtime sometimes the current goroutine will
change. It is impossible to handle this in Next, Step and StepOut but
StepInstruction can reset the current goroutine correctly.
Next will add internal breakpoints with nil condition if it can't find
the current goroutine (possibly because there isn't a current goroutine
because the runtime hasn't been initialized yet).
onNextGoroutine should skip breakpoints with nil condition, otherwise
we'll end up with an internal debugger error trying to walk a nil
expression.
Updates #893
When there's a error reading the stack trace the call stack itself
could be corrupted and we should return the partial stacktrace that we
have.
Fixes#868
Variable lookup is slow because it requires a full scan of debug_info
to check for package variables, this doesn't matter much in interactive
use but can slow down evaluation of breakpoint conditions
significantly.
Providing benchmark proof for this is hard since this effect doesn't
show for small programs with small debug_info sections.
* proc: fix interaction of RequestManualStop and conditional breakpoints
A conditional breakpoint that is hit but has the condition evaluate to
false can block a RequestManualStop from working. If the conditional
breakpoint is set on an instruction that is executed very frequently by
multiple goroutines (or many conditional breakpoints are set) it could
prevent all calls to RequestManualStop from working.
This commit fixes the problem by changing proc.Continue to exit
unconditionally after a RequestManualStop is called.
* proc/gdbserial: fix ContinueOnce getting stuck on macOS
Fixes#902
The concrete value of an interface is always stored as a pointer inside
an interface variable. So far we have followed the memory layout and
reported the type of the 'data' attribute of interfaces as a pointer,
however this makes it impossible to distinguish interfaces with
concrete value of type 'A' from interfaces of concrete value of type
'*A'.
With this changeset when we autodereference pointers when the concrete
type of an interface is not a pointer.
* Fix various issues detected by megacheck
I've ran honnef.co/go/tools/cmd/megacheck and fixed a few of the
things that came up there.
* Cleanup using Gogland
When a Go program is externally linked, the external linker is
responsible for picking the TLS offset. It records its decision in the
runtime.tlsg symbol. Read the offset from that rather than guessing -16.
This implementation causes a regression: 1.4 and earlier will no longer
work.
Other debuggers can be instructed to decorate the stacktrace with the
value of SP. Our SP equivalent is the frame offset, since we can add it
to the Stackframe structure without incurring into added costs we
should, so that frontends can use it if they want.
Implementing proc.Process.Running in a thread safe way is complicated
and nothing actually uses it besides tests, so we are better off
rewriting the tests without Running and removing it.
In particular:
* The call to d.target.Running() in service/debugger/debugger.go
(Restart) can never return true because that line executes while
holding processMutex and all continue operations are also executed
while holding processMutex.
* The call to dbp.Running() pkg/proc/native/proc.go (Detach) can never
return true, because it's only called from
debugger.(*Debugger).detach() which is also always called while
holding processMutex.
Since some tests are hard to write correctly without Process.Running a
simpler interface, Process.NotifyResumed, is introduced.
Fixes#830
RequestManualStop will run concurrently with trapWait, since one writes
dbp.halt and the other reads it dbp.halt should be protected by a
mutex.
Updates #830
type M struct was never used (as far as I know).
type VariableEval interface was used for a brief period of time during
the refactoring, now both its methods are functions.
The authorization prompt on macOS can take a long time to be
acknowledged by the user, we should keep waiting for a connection as
long as the debugserver instance we launched remains alive.
Before this commit our temp breakpoints only checked that we would stay
on the same goroutine.
However this isn't enough for recursive functions we must check that we
stay on the same goroutine AND on the same stack frame (or, in the case
of the StepOut breakpoint, the previous stack frame).
This commit:
1. adds a new synthetic variable runtime.frameoff that returns the
offset of the current frame from the base of the call stack.
This is similar to runtime.curg
2. Changes the condition used for breakpoints on the lines of the
current function to check that runtime.frameoff hasn't changed.
3. Changes the condition used for breakpoints on the return address to
check that runtime.frameoff corresponds to the previous frame in the
stack.
4. All other temporary breakpoints (the step-into breakpoints and defer
breakpoints) remain unchanged.
Fixes#828
Debugserver does not work as documented, "--" needs to be specified to
pass arguments to the target process (but only if it's an argument that
starts with a dash).
Fixes#839
While implementing the gdbserial backend everything was changed to call
Detach to "close" a process so that gdbserial could do its clean up in
a single place. However the native implementation of Detach does not
actually kill processes we launched.
Fixes#821
Lldb-server does not currently support windows/amd64 (it's in
development). And delve's native backend seems to work well on windows.
Disable the lldb backend on windows for now.
