From 8bf7fdfc16f5d5fd9a94c233c0c41d307ba86cd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2023 13:15:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 04/48] [gdb/testsuite] Fix spurious FAILs with examine-backward.exp, again Commit 59a561480d5 ("Fix spurious FAILs with examine-backward.exp") describes the problem that: ... The test case examine-backward.exp issues the command "x/-s" after the end of the first string in TestStrings, but without making sure that this string is preceded by a string terminator. Thus GDB may spuriously print some random characters from before that string, and then the test fails. ... The commit fixes the problem by adding a Barrier variable before the TestStrings variable: ... +const char Barrier[] = { 0x0 }; const char TestStrings[] = { ... There is however no guarantee that Barrier is placed immediately before TestStrings. Before recent commit 169fe7ab54b ("Change gdb.base/examine-backwards.exp for AIX.") on x86_64-linux, I see: ... 0000000000400660 R Barrier 0000000000400680 R TestStrings ... So while the Barrier variable is the first before the TestStrings variable, it's not immediately preceding TestStrings. After commit 169fe7ab54b: ... 0000000000402259 B Barrier 0000000000402020 D TestStrings ... they're not even in the same section anymore. Fix this reliably by adding the zero in the array itself: ... char TestStringsBase[] = { 0x0, ... }; char *TestStrings = &TestStringsBase[1]; ... and do likewise for TestStringsH and TestStringsW. Tested on x86_64-linux.
