Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] scripts/gdb: Fix stack depot out-of-bounds diagnostic
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 10:30:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011023044.1722-3-ue081723@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261011023044.1722-1-ue081723@gmail.com>
The pool_index field was renamed to pool_index_plus_1, but the
out-of-bounds diagnostic in stack_depot_fetch() still accesses the old
field. Looking up a handle whose pool index is outside stack_pools
therefore raises "There is no member named pool_index" instead of
printing the diagnostic and returning an empty result.
Use the already decoded pool_index variable in the diagnostic.
Fixes: 9d938f40b228 ("scripts/gdb: rename pool_index to pool_index_plus_1")

Changes in v2:
- No code change. Resent with git send-email as patch 2/2 of the
series; the v1 posting was word-wrapped by the mail client and did
not apply.
Tested the lx-stack_depot_lookup command with GDB 17.1 and a GCC-built
ELF fixture using the handle bitfield layout for 4 KiB pages. The
fixture contains one pool and a valid stack record. This is a synthetic
debugger fixture, not a booted kernel or a kernel core dump.
Handles 2 and 0xffff fail with the missing-member exception before the
fix and print the correct out-of-bounds diagnostic after it. Handle 1
still prints the expected instructions, and handle 0 retains its
existing rejection.
