This introduces initial support to generate .sframe from CFI directives
in assembler on s390 64-bit (s390x). Due to SFrame V2 format
limitations it has the following limitations, some of them getting
addressed by subsequent patches, which cause generation of SFrame FDE
to be skipped:
- SFrame FP/RA tracking only supports register contents being saved on
the stack (i.e. .cfi_offset). It does not support FP/RA register
contents being saved in other registers (i.e. .cfi_register). GCC on
s390x can be observed to save the FP/RA register contents in floating-
point registers, but only in leaf functions.
This issue is detailed further and resolved in the subsequent commit
"s390: Represent FP/RA saved in register in SFrame".
- SFrame FP/RA tracking cannot represent FP without RA saved. This is
because the format assumes SFrame FDE offset2 to be the RA offset, if
there are two offsets, and offset3 to be the FP offset, if there are
three offsets. There is no mean to distinguish whether offset2 is the
RA or FP offset, if there are only two offsets.
This issue is detailed further and resolved in the subsequent commit
"s390: Represent FP without RA saved in SFrame".
- SFrame assumes a dedicated FP register number. The s390x ELF ABI [1]
does only designate register 11 as preferred FP register number. In
general GCC and Clang on s390x use register 11 as frame pointer.
GCC on s390x can be observed to use register 14 as frame pointer in
the stack clash protector in the function prologue.
glibc on s390x contains hand-written assembler code that uses
register 12 as frame pointer.
This s390x support is largely based on the AArch64 support from commit
b52c4ee466 ("gas: generate .sframe from CFI directives").
The SFrame ABI/arch identifier SFRAME_ABI_S390X_ENDIAN_BIG is introduced
for s390x and added to the SFrame format specification.
The s390x ELF ABI [1] specifies the following C calling conventions for
s390x architecture:
- Register 15 is the stack pointer (SP).
- Register 14 contains the return address (RA) at function entry.
- There is no dedicated frame pointer register. Register 11 is the
preferred frame pointer (FP). [2] GCC and Clang in general use
register 11 as frame pointer.
- The CFA is defined as SP at call site +160. [3] The SP at call site
can therefore be derived from the CFA using a SP value offset from CFA
of -160.
The s390x ELF ABI [1] does not assign any standard save slot to each
register in the register save area of a stack frame. Neither the
return address (RA, r14) nor preferred frame pointer (FP, r11)
necessarily need to be saved. Therefore SFrame RA and FP tracking is
used.
Support for SFrame on s390 is only enabled for the 64-bit s390x ELF ABI
(z/Architecture with 64-bit addressing mode). It is disabled for the
32-bit s390 ELF ABI (ESA/390 or z/Architecture with 32-bit addressing
mode).
s390x-specific SFrame assembler and linker tests are added, including
error tests for use of a non-preferred frame pointer (FP) register and
specification of a non-default return address (RA) register.

Add a new flag SFRAME_F_FDE_FUNC_START_PCREL to SFrame stack trace
format. If set, this flag indicates that the function start address
field (sfde_func_start_address) is the offset to the function start
address from the SFrame FDE function start address field itself.
Such an encoding is friendlier to the exisitng PC-REL relocations
available in the ABIs supported in SFrame: AMD64 (R_X86_64_PC32) and
AArch64 (R_AARCH64_PREL32). In subsequent patches, we will make the
implementation in gas and ld to both:
- emit the values in the same (above-mentioned) encoding uniformly.
- set the flag SFRAME_F_FDE_FUNC_START_PCREL in the SFrame header
for consumers to be able to distinguish.
Define SFRAME_V2_F_ALL_FLAGS in sframe.h to help keep the implementation
less error-prone by keeping a set of all defined flags at a central
place. Adjust the check in sframe_header_sanity_check_p () to use the
SFRAME_V2_F_ALL_FLAGS instead.
Add documentation for SFRAME_F_FDE_FUNC_START_PCREL. Update the
documentation about the encoding of the sfde_func_start_address field.
Also, update the section "Changes from Version 1 to Version 2" to
include the specification of the new flag SFRAME_F_FDE_FUNC_START_PCREL
as an erratum to the SFrame Version 2 specification.

This also amends the incorrect comment:
offset3 (intrepreted as FP = CFA + offset2)
If RA tracking is enabled, the offset to recover FP is at the third
index. The SFrame format (V2) has assumption that if FP is saved on
stack, RA must have been saved as well. This is true for the currently
supported arch Aarch64. For AMD64, RA tracking per SFrame FRE is not
necessary.
In future, when extending support for more architectures, this will
likely need to be revisited.

Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover

updates copyright messages as follows:
1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external

files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.
4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
SFrame version 2 encodes the size of repetitive insn block explicitly
in the format. Add information in the SFrame FDE to convey the size
of the block of repeating instructions. This information is used only
for SFrame FDEs of type SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK.
Introduce two extra bytes for padding: this ensures that the memory
accesses to the members of the SFrame Frame Descriptor Entry (FDE) are
naturally aligned.
gas generates SFrame section with version SFRAME_VERSION_2 by default.
libsframe provides two new APIs to:
- get an SFrame FDE data from the decoder context, and
- add an SFrame FDE to the encoder context.
The additional argument (for rep_block_size) is useful for SFrame FDEs
where FDE type is SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK.
The linker will generate the output SFrame sections in the
SFRAME_VERSION_2 format. If the input sections offered to the linker
are not all in the SFRAME_VERSION_2 format, the linker issues an error
to the user.
objdump/readelf will show the following message to the user if .sframe
section in SFRAME_VERSION_1 format is seen:
"No further information can be displayed. SFrame version not
supported."
In other words, like the rest of the binutils, only the current SFrame
format version, i.e., SFRAME_VERSION_2 is supported by the textual dump
facilities.

For a toy application on x86_64, for example, following is the SFrame
stack trace information for the 3 pltN entries of 16 bytes each:
func idx [1]: pc = 0x401030, size = 48 bytes
STARTPC[m] CFA FP RA
0000000000000000 sp+8 u u
000000000000000b sp+16 u u
The data in first column is the start_ip_offset. Also note that the FDE
is of type SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK (denoted by the [m] on LHS).
Where each pltN (note: excluding plt0 entry) entry looks like:
401030: jmp *0x2fca(%rip)
401036: push $0x0
40103b: jmp 401020<_init+0x20>
401040: jmp *0x2fc2(%rip)
401046: push $0x1
40104b: jmp 401020<_init+0x20>
401050: jmp *0x2fba(%rip)
401056: push $0x2
40105b: jmp 401020<_init+0x20>
Now, to find SFrame stack trace information from an FDE of type
SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK, sframe_find_fre () was doing an operation
like,
(start_ip_offset & 0xf) >= (pc & 0xf)
This works for pltN entry of size, say, less than 16 bytes. But if the
pltN entries or similar code stubs (for which SFrame FDE of type
SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK may be used), evolve to be of size > 16 bytes,
this will cease to work.
To match the range covered by the SFrame FRE, one should instead perform
a modulo operation. The constant for the modulo operation must be the
size of the pltN entry. Further, this constant should ideally be
encoded in the format, as it may be different for each ABI.
In SFrame Version 2 of the format, we will move towards encoding it
explicitly in the SFrame FDE. For now, fix up the logic to at least
move towards modulo operation.

An earlier commit 3f107464 defined the SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_*_LIMIT
constants. These constants are used (by gas and libsframe) to pick an
SFrame FRE type based on the function size. Those constants, however,
were buggy, causing the generated SFrame sections to be bloated as
SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_ADDR2/SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_ADDR4 got chosen more often than
necessary.

ARM 8.3 provides five separate keys that can be used to authenticate
pointers. There are two key for executable (instruction) pointers. The
enum pointer_auth_key in gas/config/tc-aarch64.h currently holds two keys:
enum pointer_auth_key {
AARCH64_PAUTH_KEY_A,
AARCH64_PAUTH_KEY_B
};
Analogous to the above, in SFrame format V1, a bit is reserved in the SFrame
FDE to indicate which key is used for signing the frame's return addresses:
- SFRAME_AARCH64_PAUTH_KEY_A has a value of 0
- SFRAME_AARCH64_PAUTH_KEY_B has a value of 1
Note that the information in this bit will always be used along with the
mangled_ra_p bit, the latter indicates whether the return addresses are
mangled/contain PAC auth bits.

Use the last remaining bit in the 'SFrame FRE info' word to store whether
the RA is signed/unsigned with PAC authorization code: this bit is named
as the "mangled RA" bit. This bit is still unused for x86-64.
The behaviour of the mangled-RA info bit in SFrame format closely
follows the behaviour of DW_CFA_AARCH64_negate_ra_state in DWARF. During
unwinding, whenever an SFrame FRE with non-zero "mangled RA" bit is
encountered, it means the upper bits of the return address contain Pointer
Authentication code. The unwinder, hence, must use appropriate means to
restore LR correctly in such cases.
