[PATCH] target/loongarch: Split fcc register to fcc0-7 in gdbstub
Posted by Jiajie Chen 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Since GDB 13.1(GDB commit ea3352172), GDB LoongArch changed to use
fcc0-7 instead of fcc register. This commit partially reverts commit
2f149c759 (`target/loongarch: Update gdb_set_fpu() and gdb_get_fpu()`)
to match the behavior of GDB.

Note that it is a breaking change for GDB 13.0 or earlier, but it is
also required for GDB 13.1 or later to work.

I am not familiar with gdb, is there  abi breakage?
I do not know how gdb client works with gdb server with different versions.

Not abi breakage, but gdb will complain:

warning: while parsing target description (at line 1): Target 
description specified unknown architecture "loongarch64"
warning: Could not load XML target description; ignoring
warning: No executable has been specified and target does not support
determining executable automatically.  Try using the "file" command.
Truncated register 38 in remote 'g' packet

And gdb can no longer debug kernel running in qemu. You can reproduce 
this error using latest qemu(without this patch) and gdb(13.1 or later).

There seemed no versioning in the process, but rather in-code xml 
validation. In gdb, the code only allows new xml (fcc0-7) and rejects 
old one (fcc), so gdb breaks qemu first and do not consider backward 
compatibility with qemu.

Sorry, to be clear, the actual error message is:

(gdb) target extended-remote localhost:1234
Remote debugging using localhost:1234
warning: Architecture rejected target-supplied description
warning: No executable has been specified and target does not support

It rejects the target description xml given by qemu, thus using the 
builtin one. However, there is a mismatch in fcc registers, so it will 
not work if we list floating point registers.

At the same time, if we are using loongarch32 target(I recently posted 
patches to support this), it will reject the target description and 
fallback to loongarch64, making gcc not usable.

Posted by bibo mao 8 months, 3 weeks ago
I think that it is problem of loongarch gdb, rather qemu.
If so, everytime when gdb changes register layout, qemu need modify.
There should be compatible requirements between gdb client and gdb server.

Tiezhu,

what is your opition?
