[PATCH 0/2] linux-user/s390x: Fix single-stepping SVC
Posted by Ilya Leoshkevich 1 year ago
Hi,

I noticed that single-stepping SVC runs two instructions instead of
one. The reason is that EXCP_SVC masks EXCP_DEBUG.
Patch 1 fixes this problem, patch 2 adds a test.

Btw, there is at least one more problem in that area, namely
single-stepping instructions that cause e.g. SIGILL. Using the
existing signals-s390x test as an example:

    (gdb) x/i $pc
    => 0x1001740 <illegal_op>:      .long   0x000007fe

    (gdb) si
    Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
    (gdb) x/i $pc
    => 0x1001742 <after_illegal_op>:        br      %r14
    # So far so good.

    (gdb) si
    (gdb) x/i $pc
    => 0x10017b6 <handle_signal+6>: lay     %r15,-344(%r15)
    # Missed the first signal handler instruction!

I'm not sure what to do about it - the trivial fix to add
gdb_handlesig(cpu, 0) to the end of handle_pending_signal() caused GDB
to hang, and I haven't looked further yet.

Best regards,
Ilya

If there are no disagreements, I can take this through my s390x tree. Queued 
it for my next pull request now.
