The arm record tests handle 16-bit and 32-bit thumb instructions, but the
code is laid out in a way that handles the 32-bit thumb instructions as
two 16-bit parts.
This is fine, but it is prone to host-endianness issues given how the two
16-bit parts are stored and how they are accessed later on. Arm is
little-endian by default, so running this test with a GDB built with
--enable-targets=all and on a big endian host will run into the following:
Running selftest arm-record.
Process record and replay target doesn't support syscall number -2036195
Process record does not support instruction 0x7f70ee1d at address 0x0.
Self test failed: self-test failed at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/arm-tdep.c:14482
Investigating this a bit further, there seems to be a chance to do a simple
fix through a type template, using uint16_t for 16-bit thumb instructions
and uint32_t for 32-bit thumb instructions.
This patch implements this.

I was expecting this '/ 2' to need updating here. If memaddr is an octet
address, then the '/ 2' converts to a 16-bit chunk address, which is
fine if T is uint16_t, but surely is wrong when T is uint32_t...

And the same here.

I wonder if there's an alternative fix here?
gdbarch_byte_order_for_code returns a value such that READER will
correctly read instructions from arm instruction memory, right? Which
happens to be little-endian.
However, we're not reading from arm instruction memory, but we are
instead reading from host memory.
On many targets, host memory also happens to be little-endian, thus
gdbarch_byte_order_for_code is still correct.
But, could we not instead pass in a value here that represents the host
memory order instead, then maybe READER will just do the right thing?
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Luis,
LGTM.
I noticed btw that this:

...
works fine, so I wonder if instruction_reader_thumb is a misnomer,
perhaps we call it instruction_reader_selftest or some such, and add the
arm32 insn to cover that case?
Also I wondered if these checks
...
SELF_CHECK (len == 4 || len == 2);
SELF_CHECK (memaddr % 2 == 0);
SELF_CHECK ((memaddr / 2) < m_insns_size);
...
can be made more specific based on the template argument T.
Thanks,

Also, I think this is more clear:
...
-store_unsigned_integer (buf, sizeof (T), m_endian,
m_insns[memaddr / 2]);
+store_unsigned_integer (buf, sizeof (T), m_endian,
m_insns[memaddr / sizeof (T)]);
...

I guess, though I was going to rework the patch based on Andrew's comments. Didn't get to it yet though.

Ah, I hadn't seen Andrew's review.
For some reason I wasn't cc-ed, perhaps that infuriating mailman CC
rewriting again.

I've logged into the "Gdb-patches mailing list membership configuration"
and switched off "Avoid duplicate copies of messages", hopefully that
will help.

Oh, is that the setting that makes things work OK? I'll have to try that.

I think this (

description of the problem, and what the setting does.

Yeah, that is a good description of the problem with the "Filter out
duplicate messages" option. Unfortunately it seems to be on for almost
all list members because it is the default for new list members. It
might be a good idea to as the gdb/gdb-patches list owner (or
overseers) to turn that off by default (and maybe for all list
members, although I am not sure if some people have actively opted in
to this).
Cheers,
Mark

Yesterdays activity on this thread reminded me of something else I
thought of. If you plan to rework this patch then maybe this feedback
is irrelevant, but I just wanted to put it on the record anyway.
At the start of instruction_reader_thumb::read we have this assert:
SELF_CHECK (len == 4 || len == 2);
However, after your change you always read 'sizeof (T)' bytes, which
might be 4, so, I think that if 'len == 2' you will be overflowing BUF.
I guess thumb instructions can be 2-byte or 4-byte, so the thumb decoder
probably reads an initial 2-bytes, and then follows up with either a
full 4-byte read, or a read of the second 2-bytes only when necessary.
I don't think the code as proposed here will handle this use case
correctly.
Thanks,
Andrew

I suppose the code was originally made to test thumb 16-bit instructions. I've incorporated this change in the patch. Thanks!

v2:
- Add 32-bit Arm instruction selftest
- Refactored abstract memory reader into abstract instruction reader
- Adjusted code to use templated type and to use host endianness as
opposed to target endianness.
The arm record tests handle 16-bit and 32-bit thumb instructions, but the
code is laid out in a way that handles the 32-bit thumb instructions as
two 16-bit parts.
This is fine, but it is prone to host-endianness issues given how the two
16-bit parts are stored and how they are accessed later on. Arm is
little-endian by default, so running this test with a GDB built with
--enable-targets=all and on a big endian host will run into the following:
Running selftest arm-record.
Process record and replay target doesn't support syscall number -2036195
Process record does not support instruction 0x7f70ee1d at address 0x0.
Self test failed: self-test failed at ../../binutils-gdb/gdb/arm-tdep.c:14482
It turns out the abstract memory reader class is more generic than it needs to
be, and we can simplify the code a bit by assuming we have a simple instruction
reader that only reads up to 4 bytes, which is the length of a 32-bit
instruction.
Instead of returning a bool, we return instead the instruction that has been
read. This way we avoid having to deal with the endianness conversion, and use
the host endianness instead. The Arm selftests can be executed on non-Arm
hosts.
While at it, Tom suggested adding a 32-bit Arm instruction selftest to increase
the coverage of the selftests.
