From: Hui Li <lihui@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit f63a47b34b140ed1ca39d7e4bd4f1cdc617fc316 upstream. In the current code, when debugging the following code using gdb, "invalid argument ..." message will be displayed. lihui@bogon:~$ cat test.c #include <stdio.h> int a = 0; int main() { a = 1; return 0; } lihui@bogon:~$ gcc -g test.c -o test lihui@bogon:~$ gdb test ... (gdb) watch a Hardware watchpoint 1: a (gdb) r ... Invalid argument setting hardware debug registers There are mainly two types of issues. 1. Some incorrect judgment condition existed in user_watch_state argument parsing, causing -EINVAL to be returned. When setting up a watchpoint, gdb uses the ptrace interface, ptrace(PTRACE_SETREGSET, tid, NT_LOONGARCH_HW_WATCH, (void *) &iov)). Register values in user_watch_state as follows: addr[0] = 0x0, mask[0] = 0x0, ctrl[0] = 0x0 addr[1] = 0x0, mask[1] = 0x0, ctrl[1] = 0x0 addr[2] = 0x0, mask[2] = 0x0, ctrl[2] = 0x0 addr[3] = 0x0, mask[3] = 0x0, ctrl[3] = 0x0 addr[4] = 0x0, mask[4] = 0x0, ctrl[4] = 0x0 addr[5] = 0x0, mask[5] = 0x0, ctrl[5] = 0x0 addr[6] = 0x0, mask[6] = 0x0, ctrl[6] = 0x0 addr[7] = 0x12000803c, mask[7] = 0x0, ctrl[7] = 0x610 In arch_bp_generic_fields(), return -EINVAL when ctrl.len is LOONGARCH_BREAKPOINT_LEN_8(0b00). So delete the incorrect judgment here. In ptrace_hbp_fill_attr_ctrl(), when note_type is NT_LOONGARCH_HW_WATCH and ctrl[0] == 0x0, if ((type & HW_BREAKPOINT_RW) != type) will return -EINVAL. Here ctrl.type should be set based on note_type, and unnecessary judgments can be removed. 2. The watchpoint argument was not set correctly due to unnecessary offset and alignment_mask. Modify ptrace_hbp_fill_attr_ctrl() and hw_breakpoint_arch_parse(), which ensure the watchpont argument is set correctly.
