Just delete those lines and make sure you have the source file associated-types.rs in the current directory, the reproduction still works. You also need to give `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=` when compiling `rustc -g` as the file uses some unstable features only meant for testing the rustc compiler. ~~~~ set charset UTF-8 show version set print pretty off set language rust break 'associated-types.rs':111 break 'associated-types.rs':118 break 'associated-types.rs':122 break 'associated-types.rs':130 break 'associated-types.rs':137 break 'associated-types.rs':140 run print arg continue print inferred print explicitly continue print arg continue print arg continue print a print b continue print a print b continue quit ~~~~ Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdb/+bug/2041396/comments/1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2022-06-23T11:02:08+00:00 Ximin Luo wrote: > `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=` Whoops, this should be `RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1`.

I managed to reproduce this on Ubuntu 22.04 with rustc 1.58.1, but I get a SIGSEGV. On Ubuntu 20.04, with rustc 1.57, I get a SIGILL. The gdb's are the same, top-of-trunk. This is an issue with displaced stepping in the Arm port of GDB. If you disable it (set displaced-stepping off), the test runs fine. I'll investigate this.

I tracked it down to some displaced stepping improvements on commit 187b041e2514827b9d86190ed2471c4c7a352874. In particular, one of the corner cases using copy_insn_closure_by_addr got silently broken. It is hard to spot because it doesn't have any good tests for it, and the situation is quite specific to the Arm target. Essentially, the change from the displaced stepping improvements made it so we could still invoke copy_insn_closure_by_addr correctly to return the pointer to a copy_insn_closure, but it always returned nullptr due to the order of the statements in displaced_step_buffer::prepare. The way it is now, we first write the address of the displaced step buffer to PC and then save the copy_insn_closure pointer. The problem is that writing to PC for the Arm target requires figuring out if the new PC is thumb mode or not. With no copy_insn_closure data, the logic to determine the thumb mode during displaced stepping doesn't work, and gives random results that are difficult to track (SIGILL, SIGSEGV etc). Fix this by reordering the PC write in displaced_step_buffer::prepare and, for safety, add an assertion to displaced_step_buffer::copy_insn_closure_by_addr so GDB stops right when it sees this invalid situation. If this gets broken again in the future, it will be easier to spot.

[ Test Plan ] Considering the following C program: ``` __attribute__((target("arm"), noinline)) int thumb_func() { return 42; } __attribute__((target("thumb"))) int main() { return thumb_func(); } ``` If you build it using `gcc repro.c -ggdb3 -Og -o repro` and run the GDB using the following commands ... ``` b 3 r c ``` (you can save the contents above to a file and run GDB using `gdb -x script ./repro`) ... you will notice GDB broke the program and threw SIGILL. If you run the program without GDB, the program exits normally. [ Where problems could occur ] * GDB is a complex software. As the patch suggests, it may break other use cases (like single-stepping) entirely. * Since this is an ARM-only patch, it's unlikely to affect other CPU architectures. However, it is possible that this fix may break ARM64 execution. [ Other Info ] * This bug has been fixed in GDB 13, but the fix was never backported to GDB 12.
