Nick Alcock	7e1368b58f	libctf: don't pass errno into ctf_err_warn so often The libctf-internal warning function ctf_err_warn() can be passed a libctf errno as a parameter, and will add its textual errmsg form to the passed-in error message. But if there is an error on the fp already, and this is specifically an error and not a warning, ctf_err_warn() will print the error out regardless: there's no need to pass in anything but 0. There are still a lot of places where we do ctf_err_warn (fp, 0, EFOO, ...); return ctf_set_errno (fp, 0, EFOO); I've left all of those alone, because fixing it makes the code a bit longer: but fixing the cases where no return is involved and the error has just been set on the fp itself costs nothing and reduces redundancy a bit. libctf/ * ctf-dedup.c (ctf_dedup_walk_output_mapping): Drop the errno arg.

Nick Alcock	139633c307	libctf, include, binutils, gdb, ld: rename ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t The naming of the ctf_file_t type in libctf is a historical curiosity. Back in the Solaris days, CTF dictionaries were originally generated as a separate file and then (sometimes) merged into objects: hence the datatype was named ctf_file_t, and known as a "CTF file". Nowadays, raw CTF is essentially never written to a file on its own, and the datatype changed name to a "CTF dictionary" years ago. So the term "CTF file" refers to something that is never a file! This is at best confusing. The type has also historically been known as a 'CTF container", which is even more confusing now that we have CTF archives which are also a sort of container (they contain CTF dictionaries), but which are never referred to as containers in the source code. So fix this by completing the renaming, renaming ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t throughout, and renaming those few functions that refer to CTF files by name (keeping compatibility aliases) to refer to dicts instead. Old users who still refer to ctf_file_t will see (harmless) pointer-compatibility warnings at compile time, but the ABI is unchanged (since C doesn't mangle names, and ctf_file_t was always an opaque type) and things will still compile fine as long as -Werror is not specified. All references to CTF containers and CTF files in the source code are fixed to refer to CTF dicts instead. Further (smaller) renamings of annoyingly-named functions to come, as part of the process of souping up queries across whole archives at once (needed for the function info and data object sections). binutils/ChangeLog 2020-11-20 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com> * objdump.c (dump_ctf_errs): Rename ctf_file_t to ctf_dict_t.

Nick Alcock	926c9e7665	libctf, binutils, include, ld: gettextize and improve error handling This commit follows on from the earlier commit "libctf, ld, binutils: add textual error/warning reporting for libctf" and converts every error in libctf that was reported using ctf_dprintf to use ctf_err_warn instead, gettextizing them in the process, using N_() where necessary to avoid doing gettext calls unless an error message is actually generated, and rephrasing some error messages for ease of translation. This requires a slight change in the ctf_errwarning_next API: this API is public but has not been in a release yet, so can still change freely. The problem is that many errors are emitted at open time (whether opening of a CTF dict, or opening of a CTF archive): the former of these throws away its incompletely-initialized ctf_file_t rather than return it, and the latter has no ctf_file_t at all. So errors and warnings emitted at open time cannot be stored in the ctf_file_t, and have to go elsewhere. We put them in a static local in ctf-subr.c (which is not very thread-safe: a later commit will improve things here): ctf_err_warn with a NULL fp adds to this list, and the public interface ctf_errwarning_next with a NULL fp retrieves from it. We need a slight exception from the usual iterator rules in this case: with a NULL fp, there is nowhere to store the ECTF_NEXT_END "error" which signifies the end of iteration, so we add a new err parameter to ctf_errwarning_next which is used to report such iteration-related errors. (If an fp is provided -- i.e., if not reporting open errors -- this is optional, but even if it's optional it's still an API change. This is actually useful from a usability POV as well, since ctf_errwarning_next is usually called when there's been an error, so overwriting the error code with ECTF_NEXT_END is not very helpful! So, unusually, ctf_errwarning_next now uses the passed fp for its error code only if no errp pointer is passed in, and leaves it untouched otherwise.) ld, objdump and readelf are adapted to call ctf_errwarning_next with a NULL fp to report open errors where appropriate. The ctf_err_warn API also has to change, gaining a new error-number parameter which is used to add the error message corresponding to that error number into the debug stream when LIBCTF_DEBUG is enabled: changing this API is easy at this point since we are already touching all existing calls to gettextize them. We need this because the debug stream should contain the errno's message, but the error reported in the error/warning stream should not, because the caller will probably report it themselves at failure time regardless, and reporting it in every error message that leads up to it leads to a ridiculous chattering on failure, which is likely to end up as ridiculous chattering on stderr (trimmed a bit): CTF error: `ld/testsuite/ld-ctf/A.c (0): lookup failure for type 3: flags 1: The parent CTF dictionary is unavailable' CTF error: `ld/testsuite/ld-ctf/A.c (0): struct/union member type hashing error during type hashing for type 80000001, kind 6: The parent CTF dictionary is unavailable' CTF error: `deduplicating link variable emission failed for ld/testsuite/ld-ctf/A.c: The parent CTF dictionary is unavailable' ld/.libs/lt-ld-new: warning: CTF linking failed; output will have no CTF section: `The parent CTF dictionary is unavailable' We only need to be told that the parent CTF dictionary is unavailable once, not over and over again! errmsgs are still emitted on warning generation, because warnings do not usually lead to a failure propagated up to the caller and reported there. Debug-stream messages are not translated. If translation is turned on, there will be a mixture of English and translated messages in the debug stream, but rather that than burden the translators with debug-only output. binutils/ChangeLog 2020-08-27 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com> * objdump.c (dump_ctf_archive_member): Move error- reporting...

Over and over again I have accidentally called it instead of ctf_errmsg, and hidden a time-bomb for myself in a hard-to-test error-handling path: since ctf_strerror is just a strerror wrapper, it cannot handle CTF errnos, unlike ctf_errmsg.

Nick Alcock	8b37e7b63e	libctf, ld, binutils: add textual error/warning reporting for libctf This commit adds a long-missing piece of infrastructure to libctf: the ability to report errors and warnings using all the power of printf, rather than being restricted to one errno value. Internally, libctf calls ctf_err_warn() to add errors and warnings to a list: a new iterator ctf_errwarning_next() then consumes this list one by one and hands it to the caller, which can free it. New errors and warnings are added until the list is consumed by the caller or the ctf_file_t is closed, so you can dump them at intervals. The caller can of course choose to print only those warnings it wants. (I am not sure whether we want objdump, readelf or ld to print warnings or not: right now I'm printing them, but maybe we only want to print errors? This entirely depends on whether warnings are voluminous things describing e.g. the inability to emit single types because of name clashes or something. There are no users of this infrastructure yet, so it's hard to say.) There is no internationalization here yet, but this at least adds a place where internationalization can be added, to one of ctf_errwarning_next or ctf_err_warn. We also provide a new ctf_assert() function which uses this infrastructure to provide non-fatal assertion failures while emitting an assert-like string to the caller: to save space and avoid needlessly duplicating unchanging strings, the assertion test is inlined but the print-things-out failure case is not. All assertions in libctf will be converted to use this machinery in future commits and propagate assertion-failure errors up, so that the linker in particular cannot be killed by libctf assertion failures when it could perfectly well just print warnings and drop the CTF section. include/ * ctf-api.h (ECTF_INTERNAL): Adjust error text.

Nick Alcock	65365aa856	libctf: drop mmap()-based CTF data allocator This allocator has the ostensible benefit that it lets us mprotect() the memory used for CTF storage: but in exchange for this it adds considerable complexity, since we have to track allocation sizes ourselves for use at freeing time, note whether the data we are storing was ctf_data_alloc()ed or not so we know if we can safely mprotect() it... and while the mprotect()ing has found few bugs, it has been the cause of more than one due to errors in all this tracking leading to us mprotect()ing bits of the heap and stuff like that. We are about to start composing CTF buffers from pieces so that we can do usage-based optimizations on the strtab. This means we need realloc(), which needs nonportable mremap() and more tracking of the original allocation size, and the complexity and bureaucracy of all of this is just too high for its negligible benefits. Drop the whole thing and just use malloc() like everyone else. It knows better than we do when it is safe to use mmap() under the covers, anyway.

(ctf_version): New. include/ * ctf-api.h (ctf_version): New.	7 years ago
Nick Alcock	60da9d9559	libctf: lowest-level memory allocation and debug-dumping wrappers The memory-allocation wrappers are simple things to allow malloc interposition: they are only used inconsistently at present, usually where malloc debugging was required in the past. These provide a default implementation that is environment-variable triggered (initialized on the first call to the libctf creation and file-opening functions, the first functions people will use), and a ctf_setdebug()/ctf_getdebug() pair that allows the caller to explicitly turn debugging off and on. If ctf_setdebug() is called, the automatic setting from an environment variable is skipped. libctf/ * ctf-impl.h: New file. * ctf-subr.c: New file. include/ * ctf-api.h (ctf_setdebug): New. (ctf_getdebug): Likewise.	7 years ago
