From 4d832a33ebd80bd109cc5a47f98c6b35fdcbd956 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: lipengfei28 <lipengfei28(a)xiaomi.com&gt; Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 16:24:07 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Fix broken/incomplete gdb backtrace and unify output format This patch fixes multiple issues with 'gdb bt' on ARM64, where the backtrace would be interrupted, contain garbage threads, or display fragmented output. 1. Fix Out-of-Bounds Read in Exception Frame Handling: In `arm64_print_exception_frame`, the code previously used `memcpy` to copy `sizeof(struct arm64_pt_regs)` bytes from a `struct arm64_stackframe *` source. Since `stackframe` is significantly smaller than `pt_regs`, this caused an out-of-bounds read, populating the GDB thread registers with stack garbage (often resulting in invalid addresses like -3/0xff...fd). This is fixed by manually copying only the valid registers (PC, SP, FP, etc.) and properly initializing the bitmap. 2. Bridge the Gap Between IRQ and Process Stacks: Previously, GDB unwinding would stop at `call_on_irq_stack` because it could not automatically unwind through the assembly trampoline back to the process stack. Modified `arm64_switch_stack` (and the overflow variant) to "peek" one frame ahead (reading the saved FP/PC of the caller) before registering the new GDB substack. This effectively bridges the discontinuity, allowing GDB to show frames like `do_interrupt_handler` that were previously missing. 3. Unify and Format GDB Output: Modified `gdb_interface.c` to: - Strip "Thread <id>" headers to present a continuous backtrace similar to the native `crash bt`. - Renumber stack frames sequentially (e.g., #0 to #30) instead of resetting at each stack switch. - Add indentation/alignment for frames where GDB omits the address (e.g., inline functions) to improve readability. 4. Prevent Invalid Thread Creation: Added checks to ensure a GDB substack is only created if the Program Counter (PC) is non-zero, preventing the display of "corrupt" or empty threads.
