Moving section headers to the end sounds good. However, maybe we should make the bfd_from_remote_memory change too, in order to cope with kernels already in the field? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gdb in

Still trawling through gdb, but the issue appears to be in bfd/elfcode.h, bfd_from_remote_memory: shdr_end = i_ehdr.e_shoff + i_ehdr.e_shnum * i_ehdr.e_shentsize; [17] .shstrtab STRTAB 001603 be 00 0 0 1 [18] .symtab SYMTAB

Of course it's the actual section headers at that offset. Now the question is, should we fix bfd_from_remote_memory so it can read sections after the section headers assuming they are in memory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which

Hmmm ... usually, the section headers come at the very end of the file. It's a bit strange that there is section data *after* the headers in this case; maybe that's what confuses GDB/BFD. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is

2014-09-09 Thread Ulrich Weigand
On second glance, looks I'm wrong: .symtab and .strtab actually do come *after* the section headers in normal executables too. So I guess the best thing to do would be to fix bfd_from_remote_memory to actually include enough memory to cover all sections, even those after the section headers.

I'm looking into moving the section headers to the end of the object file for ld.bfd. It doesn't look too hard, but there will likely be some testsuite tweaking needed. It looks like gold puts section headers last. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch

I see what is going on, but don't know how to fix it yet. Gdb must be checking for program headers that are marked load or segments that are marked allocate (not exactly sure what yet). The .symtab and .strtab are not, because normally they are not loaded into memory. The problem is
