@AndrijaSyrmia AndrijaSyrmia commented Oct 24, 2024

eh_frame start and end symbols need to be defined if there is an
eh_frame section. These symbols are needed by libunwind when used
without libgcc.

On Windows gcore is not implemented, and if you try it, you get an
heap-use-after-free error:

It happens because gdb_bfd_close_or_warn uses a bfd-internal name for
the failing-close warning, after the close is finished, and the name
already freed:

static int
gdb_bfd_close_or_warn (struct bfd *abfd)
{
  int ret;
  const char *name = bfd_get_filename (abfd);

  for (asection *sect : gdb_bfd_sections (abfd))
    free_one_bfd_section (sect);

  ret = bfd_close (abfd);

  if (!ret)
    gdb_bfd_close_warning (name,
			   bfd_errmsg (bfd_get_error ()));

  return ret;
}

Fixed by making a copy of the name for the warning.

LGTM with a small comment that it may be nice to reference libunwind at least in the commit message since we only need those symbols when relying on libunwind but not libgcc

Can you take a look if the new message is better, or should I be more verbose. If that is the case I'll have to see in detail why we need the symbols.

It's OK now.

This commit adds support for a `gstack' command which Fedora has
been carrying for many years. gstack is a natural counterpart to
the gcore command. Whereas gcore dumps a core file, gstack prints
stack traces of a running process.

There are many improvements over Fedora's version of this script.
The dependency on procfs is gone; gstack will run anywhere gdb
runs. The only runtime dependencies are bash and awk.

The script includes suggestions from gdb/32325 to include
versioning and help. [If this approach to gdb/32325 is acceptable,
I could propagate the solution to gcore/gdb-add-index.]

I've rewritten the documentation, integrating it into the User Manual.
The manpage is now output using this one source.

Example run (on x86_64 Fedora 40)

$ gstack --help
Usage: gstack [-h|--help] [-v|--version] PID
Print a stack trace of a running program

  -h, --help         Print this message then exit.
  -v, --version      Print version information then exit.
$ gstack -v
GNU gstack (GDB) 16.0.50.20241119-git
$ gstack 12345678

Since this is essentially a complete rewrite of the original
script and documentation, I've chosen to only keep a 2024 copyright date.
