Under Xen the toolstack is responsible for managing the domains in
the system, e.g. creating, destroying, and otherwise manipulating
them.
To do this it uses a number of ioctls on the /proc/xen/privcmd
device. Most of these (the MMAPBATCH ones) simply set things up such
that a subsequenct mmap call will map the desired guest memory. Since
valgrind has no way of knowing what the memory contains we assume
that it is all initialised (to do otherwise would require valgrind to
be observing the complete state of the system and not just the given
process).
The most interesting ioctl is XEN_IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL which
allows the toolstack to make arbitrary hypercalls. Although the
mechanism here is specific to the OS of the guest running the
toolstack the hypercalls themselves are defined solely by the
hypervisor. Therefore I have split support for this ioctl into a part
in syswrap-linux.c which handles the ioctl itself and passes things
onto a new syswrap-xen.c which handles the specifics of the
hypercalls themselves. Porting this to another OS should just be a
matter of wiring up syswrap-$OS.c to decode the ioctl and call into
syswrap-xen.c. In the future we may want to split this into
syswrap-$ARCH-xen.c but for now this is x86 only.
The hypercall coverage here is pretty small but is enough to get
reasonable(-ish) results out of the xl toolstack when listing,
creating and destroying domains.
One issue is that the hypercalls which are exlusively used by the
toolstacks (as opposed to those used by guest operating systems) are
not considered a stable ABI, since the hypervisor and the lowlevel
tools are considered a matched pair. This covers the sysctl and
domctl hypercalls which are a fairly large chunk of the support
here. I'm not sure how to solve this without invoking a massive
amount of duplication. Right now this targets the Xen unstable
interface (which will shortly be released as Xen 4.2), perhaps I can
get away with deferring this problem until the first change .
On the plus side the vast majority of hypercalls are not of interest
to the toolstack (they are used by guests) so we can get away without
implementing them.
Note: a hypercall only reads as many words from the ioctl arg
struct as there are actual arguments to that hypercall and the
toolstack only initialises the arguments which are used. However
there is no space in the DEFN_PRE_TEMPLATE prototype to allow this to
be communicated from syswrap-xen.c back to syswrap-linux.c. Since a
hypercall can have at most 5 arguments I have hackily stolen ARG8 for
this purpose.

tdb uses fcntl locks and mmap, and some of the tests fail under valgrind.
strace showed valgrind opening the tdb file, reading 1024 bytes, then closing
it. This is not allowed: POSIX says if you open and close a file, all fcntl
locks on it are dropped (insane, yes).
Finally got around to hacking the source to track this down: di_notify_mmap is
doing the damage. The simplest fix was to hand in an optional fd for it to
use, then have it do pread.
I had to fix your pread; surely this should seek back even if the platform
doesn't have pread support?

* configure.in support
* new supp file darwin11.supp
* comment out many intercepts in mc_replace_strmem.c and
vg_replace_malloc.c that are apparently unnecessary for Darwin
* add minimal handling for the following new syscalls and mach traps:
mach_port_set_context
task_get_exception_ports
getaudit_addr
psynch_mutexwait
psynch_mutexdrop
psynch_cvbroad
psynch_cvsignal
psynch_cvwait
psynch_rw_rdlock
psynch_rw_wrlock
psynch_rw_unlock
psynch_cvclrprepost
* wqthread_hijack on amd64-darwin: deal with
tst->os_state.pthread having an apparently different offset,
which caused an assertion failure
* m_debuginfo: for 32 bit processes on Lion, use the DebugInfoFSM
cleanup added in r12041/12042 to handle apparently new dyld
behaviour, which is to map text areas r-- first and only
vm_protect them later to r-x.
The following cleanups remain to be done
* remove apparently pointless, commented out wrapper macro
invokations in mc_replace_strmem.c, eg
//MEMMOVE(VG_Z_DYLD, memmove)
(or determine that they are still necessary, and uncomment)
* ditto in vg_replace_malloc.c, plus general VGO_darwin cleanups
there
* write proper syscall wrappers for
mach_port_set_context
task_get_exception_ports
getaudit_addr
psynch_mutexwait
psynch_mutexdrop
psynch_cvbroad
psynch_cvsignal
psynch_cvwait
psynch_rw_rdlock
psynch_rw_wrlock
psynch_rw_unlock
psynch_cvclrprepost
These are currently just no-ops and may be causing Memcheck to
report false undef-value errors
* figure out why it doesn't work properly unless built with gcc-4.2 on
Lion.
gcc-4.2 is the "normal" gcc (i686-apple-darwin11-gcc-4.2.1). Plain
gcc is the hybrid gcc-front-end clang-back-end thing
(i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2). Whereas on Snow Leopard, plain
gcc is the normal gcc.
The symptoms of the failure are that wqthread_hijack in
syswrap-amd64-linux.c hits this /*NOTREACHED*/ vg_assert(0); right
at the end (you need a pretty complex threaded app to trigger this),
which makes me think that either ML_(wqthread_continue_NORETURN) or
call_on_new_stack_0_1 do return, which they are not expected to.
* figure out if some of the uninitialised value errors reported in
system libraries on are caused by Memcheck being confused by LLVM
generated code, as per bug #242137

many names. This reflects reality better, particularly for systemy

Also in format_message, improve precondition assertions for

There's no error in the current code since if frameNo == -1 then
tid is unused, but it caused IBM's BEAM checker to complain.

* better progress messages, to make it clear that reading of a

* don't mmap PDB files to read them -- instead use VG_(read).
This is because CIFS filesystem mounting only works reliably on
Linux when mounted with option '-o directio', and that
disallows mmap-ing files.

more flexible and general. Also rename it.

* allow multiple instances of --fullpath-after=

But retain the elegant backwards-compatibility trick in Bart's r11312

exactly as before.

too. This is a first step towards making not be completely
x86/amd64-linux specific, and so replaces some x86/amd64-specific
stuff with more general constructions:
* structure 'DiCfSI', into which the info is summarised, has been
made target-specific (ugh), since the sets of registers to be
unwound differ on different targets.
* enum CfiReg and the CFIC_ constants have been expanded
accordingly, to handle both arm and x86/amd64 registers.
The abbreviation "IA" (Intel Architecture) has been used in a
few places where the x86 and amd64 definitions are shared.
* the CFI reader/summariser in readdwarf.c has been expanded &
generalised appropriately.
* the DiCfSI evaluator in debuginfo.c, VG_(use_CFI_info), has
also been generalised appropriately.
The main change is that instead of passing around triples
of (IP, SP, BP) values, a new structure 'D3UnwindRegs' is
passed around instead. This is defined differently for IA and
ARM and succeeds in hiding at least some of the differences
where we don't care about them.
Note also, D3UnwindRegs duplicates, in purpose and structure,
structure 'RegSummary' in priv_d3basics.h. This will be tidied
up in due course.
This commit almost certainly breaks stack unwinding on amd64-linux.

versions of gcc as shipped with Fedora 12. Specific changes include:
- Vastly increase the number of opcodes we understand how to
evaluate when processing a location expression.
- Process frame unwind data from the debug_frame ELF section as
well as the eh_frame section.
- Handle version 3 CIEs in frame unwind data.
- Handle the compact form of DW_AT_data_member_location which just
gives a constant offset from the start of it's base type instead
of a full location expression.

type STT_GNU_IFUNC which, instead of pointing directly at the
function, point at a routine which will return the address of
the real function. Redirection of indirect functions is handled
by valgrind as follows:
- When a redirection specification matches an indirect
function symbol an active redirection is added in the
normal way, but with the isIFunc flag set.
- When a call is made to an address which matches an
active redirection with the isIFunc flag set the call
is redirected, but not to the target address of the
redirection - instead it is sent to a small wrapper
routine that is preloaded into the client.
- The wrapper routine calls the original client routine
and collects the result, which it reports to valgrind
using a client request, and then returns the result to
the caller.
- When valgrind gets the client request it looks up the
active redirection for the indirect function and then
adds a new active redirection which redirects from the
address returned by the indirection function to the
redirection target. This new redirection does not have
the isIFunc flag set so behaves as a normal redirection.
In addition to the above we also add a few new redirections to
memcheck to capture internal calls made by glibc to things like
strlen, as these internal calls do not go through the indirect
function and instead go direct to the chosen implementation.
Based on a patch from Dodji Seketeli and comments from Jakub
Jelinek, this commit closes bug 206013.

both wrapped up in XML tags (as before) but also in plain text in a
sequence of CDATA blocks. Normally only one, but in the worst case
the raw data will have ]]> in it, in which case it needs to be split
across two CDATA blocks.
This apparently simple change involved a lot of refactoring of the
suppression printing machinery:
* in the core-tool iface, change "print_extra_suppression_info" (which
prints any auxiliary info) to "get_extra_suppression_info", which
parks the text in a caller-supplied buffer. Adjust tools to match.
* VG_(apply_StackTrace): accept a void* argument, which is passed to
each invokation of the functional parameter (a poor man's closure
implementation).
* move PRINTF_CHECK into put_tool_basics.h, where it should have been
all along
* move private printf-into-an-XArray-of-character functions from
m_debuginfo into m_xarray, and make them public
* gen_suppression itself: use all the above changes. Basically we
always generate the plaintext version into an XArray. In text mode
that's just printed. In XML mode, we print the XMLery as before,
but the plaintext version is dumped into a CDATA block too.
* update the Protocol 4 specification to match all this.
This still isn't 100% right in the sense that the CDATA block data
needs to be split across multiple blocks if it should ever contain the
CDATA end mark "]]>". The Protocol 4 spec has this right even though
the implementation currently doesn't.
Fixes#191189.

* VG_(find_seginfo): incrementally rearrange the DebugInfo list, like
most of the other list-searching functions do.

but not completely, done away with some time back.

This commit tidies up and rationalises what could be called the
"messaging" system -- that part of V to do with presenting output to
the user. In particular it brings significant improvements to XML
output.
Changes are:
* XML and normal text output now have separate file descriptors,
which solves longstanding problems for XML consumers caused by
the XML output getting polluted by unexpected non-XML output.
* This also means that we no longer have to hardwire all manner
of output settings (verbosity, etc) when XML is requested.
* The XML output format has been revised, cleaned up, and made
more suitable for use by error detecting tools in general
(various Memcheck-specific features have been removed). XML
output is enabled for Ptrcheck and Helgrind, and Memcheck is
updated to the new format.
* One side effect is that the behaviour of VG_(message) has been
made to be consistent with printf: it no longer automatically
adds a newline at the end of the output. This means multiple
calls to it can be used to build up a single line message; or a
single call can write a multi-line message. The ==pid==
preamble is automatically inserted at each newline.
* VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, ..args..) now has the abbreviated form
VG_(UMSG)(..args..); ditto VG_(DMSG) for Vg_DebugMsg and
VG_(EMSG) for Vg_DebugExtraMsg. A couple of other useful
printf derivatives have been added to pub_tool_libcprint.h,
most particularly VG_(vcbprintf).
* There's a small change in the core-tool interface to do with
error handling: VG_(needs_tool_errors) has a new method
void (*before_pp_Error)(Error* err) which, if non-NULL, is
called just before void (*pp_Error)(Error* err). This is to
give tools the chance to look at errors before any part of them
is printed, so they can print any XML preamble they like.
* coregrind/m_errormgr.c has been overhauled and cleaned up, and
is a bit simpler and more commented. In particular pp_Error
and VG_(maybe_record_error) are significantly changed.
The diff is huge, but mostly very boring. Most of the changes
are of the form
- VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d", n);
+ VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d\n", n);
Unfortunately as a result of this, it touches a large number
of source files.
