Theory is that on the runner, in rare cases, gdb may need more than
1 second to load and start responding to commands.
However it's possible these timeouts are due to some other problem
(like gdb failing)
The previous location was the return from the first ets_printf call
that prints ROM sign-on message. Since the main function was patched
in ECO3, the new address no longer works — there is no instruction at
0x40007901 in ECO3 ROM. This could be solved by setting two
breakpoints (one would work for ECO <=2, the other for ECO3), but we
would need to remove the unused breakpoint later.
Fix this by setting the breakpoint at ets_printf. This means that when
debugging a loadable ELF the ROM sign-on message will no longer be
shown, but this doesn't seem to be an issue.
* Patched longjmp to be context-switch safe
longjmp modifies the windowbase and windowstart
registers, which isn't safe if a context switch
occurs during the modification. After a context
switch, windowstart and windowbase will be
different, leading to a wrongly set windowstart
bit due to longjmp writing it based on the
windowbase before the context switch. This
corrupts the registers at the next window
overflow reaching that wrongly set bit.
The solution is to disable interrupts during
this code. It is only 6 instructions long,
the impact shouldn't be significant.
The fix is implemented as a wrapper which
replaces the original first instructions of
longjmp which are buggy. Then, it jumps back
to execute the rest of the original longjmp
function.
Added a comparably reliable test to the
test apps.
The previous approach was to allocate an array on the stack, and
have the array extend past the stack size. This worked by would
result in SP being moved near the end of the stack. If an interrupt
triggered at that time, interrupt prologue would try to save the
context to the stack, tripping the stack overflow watchpoint.
Replacing this with the approach which doesn't move the SP and simply
writes to decreasing addresses from SP, until stack overflow check
triggers.
Small quality-of-life improvement, make it easier to run specific
test cases, when debugging the tests locally.
Take the optional list of test cases to run from the command line.
InstrFetchProhibited usually occurs because of a jump to an invalid
pointer. In this case, PC in the exception frame is the address of
the jump destination. 'esp_ptr_executable' check in print_backtrace
function recognizes the first frame as invalid, and the backtrace is
interrupted. This prevents the user from finding the location where
the invalid pointer is dereferenced.
Bypass the 'esp_ptr_executable' check if the exception cause is
InstrFetchProhibited. Update the test case to no longer ignore this
issue.
Restores the change of startup refactor changes removed the no stack
check protection flag when compiling the source file that contains
execution of constructors - which contains function to setup stack
guard. Restore that and update the source file, since this is in the 2nd
stage of the startup now.
