Ayush,


Well bugs in the runtime are a classic case when have good debugging infrastructure pays off and that class of issue is what started this email thread. 

It is not hard to try out gdb to see what happens if you are using QEMU. 
From the root of the edk2 repo:
$ OvmfPkg/build.sh qemu -gdb tcp::9000

Then from another terminal
$ cd BaseTools/Scripts
$  gdb -ex "target remote localhost:9000" -ex "source efi_gdb.py"

That should get you a symbolicated stack frame. 

The QEMU -gdb works like a JTAG debugger. You can put dead loops in your code, let it run, and then attach. 

Thanks,

Andrew Fish

Hi Andrew. I do agree with having better debugging support for Rust-UEFI. However, I am not much experienced with even the C side of UEFI debugging, so it has been difficult for me to do much on the Rust side either. It isn't like Rust UEFI debugging is not possible. There are some examples ([1]), but as you might guess, they are quite few. Additionally, most of them seem to be concentrated around Windows. Finally, there is actually quite good debugging support in uefi-rs [2], but well, that's licensed under MPL-2.0, so I have stayed clear of it.


Another reason I have gone so long without using any actual debugger is because, well, Rust makes it quite explicit where wired errors can occur. Most functions, even inside the std, don't use pointers but rather use `NonNull`, `MaybeUninint` or some other safe abstraction. Even on the worst failure, the program will abort instead of crash. On aborting, Rust also gives a nice message on stderr stating exactly where the error occurred along with all the details of the error. Basically, it was always so clear what caused the error and where it occurred that I simply didn't feel the need to attach a debugger, till now.


There is some work going on to actually document using Rust for UEFI in the rustc docs, sponsored by Red Hat [3], so the situation should improve soon. What I do know is that the `.pdb` files generated by Rust (which are always generated) should contain all the symbols for debugging. I can work on debugging once I finish up with solving all other errors which are due to my implementation of std rather than the ones that have been caused by the rust intrinsic.

Hi Andrew. Thanks for all your work. The more I look at this, the more it feels like it might be a problem on the LLVM side instead of Rust. I also found some more tests (all related to numbers btw) which can cause different types of exceptions, so I think I will try filing bugs upstream.


Ayush,

In general If we want to move to Rust we are going to need a way to debug issues like this down to the root cause. I think figuring out how to debug will make it easier to move forward with the Rust port in general. It will time well spent. 

The best way to get LLVM fixed, if it is even broken, is to provide a simple test case that reproduces the behavior. I don’t think at this point we know what is going on. It is very unlikely that some random LLVM developer is going to invest the time in trying to setup some UEFI environment to try and root cause this bug. I general find I have to create a simple at desk example and then I get stuff fixed quickly. Basically a test case the LLVM developer can compile at their desk and see the error in assembler, or at least run it at desk and have bogus output. 

I’m not 100% sure what toolchain you are using. Can you `objdump -d hello_world_std.efi`and get some symbols with the disassembly? For VC++ I think it would be `DUMPBIN /DISASM`.

What are you planning on using for source level debugging Rust? I wrote some gdb[1] and lldb[2] debugging commands in Python. I’m guessing loading Rust symbols from PE/COFF images should be similar, as long as the debugger knows about rust. 

I’m happy to help you figure out stuff related to debugging Rust. 


Thanks,

Andrew Fish

Ayush Singh

 RCX - FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

So yea that looks like the fault. 

I don’t see that pattern in your .s file…. 

Can you figure out what function is @ 0x140001b60 in the PE/COFF image. Do you have a map file from the linker?

Ayush,

CR2 is the fault address so 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Given for EFI Virt == Physical the fault address looks like a bad pointer. 

Sorry I’ve not used VC++ in a long time so I don’t know how to debug with VC++, but If I was using clang/lldb I’d look at the source and assembly for the fault address. 

The image base is: 0x000000000603C000
The fault PC/RIP is: 000000000603DB60

So the faulting code is at 0x1B60 in the image. Given the images are linked at zero you should be able to load the build product into the debugger and look at what code is at offset 0x1B60. The same should work for any tools that dump the binary.

From my testing, the exception only occurs when a few conditions are met.

1. The binary is compiled in Debug mode. No error in Release mode.

2. `i128` is in a black_box [1]. Does not occur if `black_box` is not present.

3. It has to be `i128`. `i64` or something else work fine.

4. The cast has to be done on `-z`. Doing the same with `+z` is fine.


I have also been discussing this in the Rust zulipchat [2], so feel free to chime in there.
