From 85bd1ddbdfdfd13cfd06f7c367519b6ed3360843 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Wilson Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2019 15:48:09 -0800 Subject: RISC-V: Fix elfutils testsuite unwind failures. The clone.S patch fixes 2 elfutils testsuite unwind failures, where the backtrace gets stuck repeating __thread_start until we hit the backtrace limit. This was confirmed by building and installing a patched glibc and then building elfutils and running its testsuite. Unfortunately, the testcase isn't working as expected and I don't know why. The testcase passes even when my clone.S patch is not installed. The testcase looks logically similarly to the elfutils testcases that are failing. Maybe there is a subtle difference in how the glibc unwinding works versus the elfutils unwinding? I don't have good gdb pthread support yet, so I haven't found a way to debug this. Anyways, I don't know if the testcase is useful or not. If the testcase isn't useful then maybe the clone.S patch is OK without a testcase?
