#------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # class for instant remote debugging by building a debug sysroot # # It adresses a use case seen umptenth times: After creating or changing a # recipe, the build result crashes on target e.g with segfault or without # dropping helpful information. In these situations one wants to debug NOW # without further waiting or quirky activities. # # To achieve a debug sysroot is build with low cost: # # * All files are hard-linked to recipe's ${WORKDIR}/package # * Additional build time for task do_copysourcestosysroot for most recipes is < 1s # # to enable debug sysroot build set: # 'INHERIT += "instant-remote"' # in your local.conf # # to debug by remote do: # # ON TARGET: # * install gdbserver (build automatically for images if this class enabled - see # EXTRA_IMAGEDEPENDS below) # * open a shell and enter 'gdbserver : ' e.g # 'gdbserver :5000 /usr/bin/thunar' # # ON BUILD HOST (suggested IDE: QtCreator) # * build gdb-cross- (done automatically on images if this class # enabled - see EXTRA_IMAGEDEPENDS below) # * in QtCreator select Menu Debug/Start Debugging/Attach to Running Debug Server # -> Dialog 'Start Debugger' opens # * At the first session a so called 'Kit' has to be set up (1st line -> 'Manage'). # The settings are kept so 1.-6. have to be done once only. # 1. Create a Kit by 'Add' -> further dilaog opens # 2. Select an name for the Kit e.g 'OE' # 3. Set sysroot (see INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH below) e.g: # /sysroot-instant-remote # 4. Select compilers (it is not necessary for debug but without QTCreator won't enable Kit) for C and C++ e.g: # C: '/sysroots-components/x86_64/gcc-cross-arm/usr/bin/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi-gcc' # C++: '/sysroots-components/x86_64/gcc-cross-arm/usr/bin/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi-g++' # 5. Select debugger e.g: # GDB: '/sysroots-components/x86_64/gdb-cross-arm/usr/bin/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi/arm-mortsgna-linux-gnueabi-gdb' # 6. Select 'OK' in Options dialog -> 'Start Debugger' should be back on top # * Make sure 'OE' Kit is selected # * Browse for executable e.g '/sysroot-instant-remote/usr/bin/thunar' # * Set IP:Port of target machine e.g '192.168.2.108:5000' # * Select 'OK' # # Happy debugging!! # # TODO: # * Class won't work with rm_work.bbclass / rm_work_and_downloads.bbclass # -> Implement error message # * Class does not work properly when package data is taken from sstate cache # -> Help appreciated #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # ensure necessary gdb recipes are build EXTRA_IMAGEDEPENDS += "gdb-cross-${TARGET_ARCH} gdb" # This is where instant sysroot is installed into INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH ??= "${TMPDIR}/sysroot-instant-remote" addtask copysourcestosysroot before do_packagedata after do_package do_copysourcestosysroot() { # ---------- link source code files ---------- # remove old rm -rf ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/usr/src/debug/${PN} # add new if [ -d ${WORKDIR}/package/usr/src/debug/${PN} ] ; then mkdir -p ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/usr/src/debug/${PN} cd ${WORKDIR}/package/usr/src/debug/${PN} find . -print0 | cpio --null -pdlu ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/usr/src/debug/${PN} fi # ---------- names of binaries and debuginfo -> manifest ---------- mkdir -p ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests # remove old if [ -f ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} ] ; then # remove old files from sysroot for file in `cat ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN}` ; do rm -f ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/$file done # remove old manifest rm ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} fi # get path to library-link once only if [ "${PN}" = "glibc-locale" ] ; then PACK_SPLIT_LIB_LINK_SEARCH_PATH=`find ${WORKDIR}/packages-split -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d ! -name '*-dbg' ! -name '*-dev' ! -name '*-staticdev' ! -name '*-doc' ! -name 'glibc*-localedata-*' ! -name 'glibc-charmap-*' ! -name 'locale-base-*'` # other specials go here # elif... else PACK_SPLIT_LIB_LINK_SEARCH_PATH=`find ${WORKDIR}/packages-split -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d ! -name '*-dbg' ! -name '*-dev' ! -name '*-staticdev' ! -name '*-doc' ! -name '${PN}*-locale-*'` fi echo "Search so-link in $PACK_SPLIT_LIB_LINK_SEARCH_PATH.." # add new for pkgdbg in `find ${WORKDIR}/packages-split -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -name '*-dbg'` ; do debug_binaries= if [ "${PACKAGE_DEBUG_SPLIT_STYLE}" = "debug-file-directory" ] ; then if [ -d $pkgdbg/usr/lib/debug ] ; then debug_binaries=`find $pkgdbg/usr/lib/debug -name '*.debug'` fi else debug_binaries=`find $pkgdbg -wholename '*.debug/*'` fi for file in $debug_binaries; do # do 'root' path file=`echo $file | sed -e 's:'$pkgdbg'::'` # stripped binary (non debug) if [ "${PACKAGE_DEBUG_SPLIT_STYLE}" = "debug-file-directory" ] ; then filestripped=`echo $file | sed -e 's:/usr/lib/debug::' -e 's:\.debug::'` else filestripped=`echo $file | sed -e 's:\.debug/::'` fi # keep files in manifest echo $file >> ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} echo $filestripped >> ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} # check for so-file links if echo $filestripped | grep -q '\.so'; then soname=`basename $filestripped` for packsplit in $PACK_SPLIT_LIB_LINK_SEARCH_PATH; do for link in `find $packsplit -lname $soname` ; do # do 'root' path link=`echo $link | sed -e 's:'$packsplit'::'` echo $link >> ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} done done fi done done # ---------- link binaries and debuginfo from manifest ---------- if [ -f ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN} ] ; then cd ${WORKDIR}/package for file in `cat ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/manifests/${PN}` ; do file=`echo $file | cut -c 2-` if [ -e $file ] ; then echo -n $file | cpio --null -pdlu ${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH} fi done fi } # remove source code links do_clean[cleandirs] += "${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}/usr/src/debug/${PN}" do_clean_append() { # remove binaries from mainfest manifest = "%s/manifests/%s" % (d.expand("${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}"), d.expand("${PN}")) if os.path.isfile(manifest): bb.note("Removing all files from manifest " + manifest) manifestfile = open(manifest, "r") for filetoremove in manifestfile: filetoremove = filetoremove.rstrip() filetoremove = d.expand("${INSTANT_REMOTE_PATH}") + filetoremove if os.path.isfile(filetoremove): os.remove(filetoremove) manifestfile.close() os.remove(manifest) }
