From bad3ee87ac170150a9a8a72c731aa631a1ad8cf5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Drasko DRASKOVIC Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2011 21:12:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mips_m4k : Fix soft breakpoint endianess handling In order to compare data read from the target with some marcros or data defined on the host, we must transform this read data from target endianess to host endianess. target_read_memory() gets bytes from target to the host, but keeps them in _target_ endianess. This is OK if we just want to temporary keep this data on the host, like keeping breakpoint->orig_instr. But if we want to use this data for any ispections and comparisons on the host side, we must transform it to _host_ endianess, by using target_buffer_get_u32() function. Currently this transformation is missing, and check current_instr == MIPS32_SDBBP will never pass if target and host endianess differ, because current_instr will be kept in _target_ endianess and MIPS32_SDBBP will be kept in _host_ endianess, The patch fix this issue by using target_buffer_get_u32() to transform current_instr to _host_ endianess before comparison. --- src/target/mips_m4k.c | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/target/mips_m4k.c b/src/target/mips_m4k.c index 9b4e1a45..b84783b1 100644 --- a/src/target/mips_m4k.c +++ b/src/target/mips_m4k.c @@ -616,6 +616,14 @@ static int mips_m4k_unset_breakpoint(struct target *target, { return retval; } + + /** + * target_read_memory() gets us data in _target_ endianess. + * If we want to use this data on the host for comparisons with some macros + * we must first transform it to _host_ endianess using target_buffer_get_u32(). + */ + current_instr = target_buffer_get_u32(target, (uint8_t *)¤t_instr); + if (current_instr == MIPS32_SDBBP) { if ((retval = target_write_memory(target, breakpoint->address, 4, 1, -- 2.39.5
