Can't show variable value by p in gdb (DW_FORM_strp) #34109

Closed coolg92003 closed 5 months ago

coolg92003 commented 5 months ago

when I build envoy by "-c dbg", then run by gdb and try to check variable value and get below info

**p socket_->isOpen())**
DW_FORM_strp pointing outside of .debug_str section [in module /build/.cache/bazel/_bazel_envoybuild/b570b5ccd0454dc9af9f65ab1833764d/execroot/envoy/bazel-out/k8-dbg/bin/source/exe/envoy-static]
**p read_end_stream_**
DW_FORM_strp pointing outside of .debug_str section [in module /build/.cache/bazel/_bazel_envoybuild/b570b5ccd0454dc9af9f65ab1833764d/execroot/envoy/bazel-out/k8-dbg/bin/source/exe/envoy-static]

anything or path missed? and check below for details: 1) build cd /source; export PATH bazel build -c dbg //source/exe:envoy 2) run gdb /build/.cache/bazel/_bazel_envoybuild/b570b5ccd0454dc9af9f65ab1833764d/execroot/envoy/ba zel-out/k8-dbg/bin/source/exe/envoy-static b ConnectionImpl::onRead run -l trace --concurrency 1 -c /tmp/sesDySecLCnoDEnvoy.yaml --log-path /tmp/envoy.log 3) trigger message 4) check variable p this->read_endstream DW_FORM_strp pointing outside of .debug_str section [in module /build/.cache/bazel/_bazel_envoybuild/b570b5ccd0454dc9af9f65ab1833764d/execroot/envoy/bazel-out/k8-dbg/bin/source/exe/envoy-static]

thanks Cliff

@KBaichoo has been looking at debug symbol related things recently and may have some insight.

coolg92003 commented 5 months ago

Hi @KBaichoo , Would you share some idea on this? Thanks in advance! Cliff

coolg92003 commented 5 months ago

The major concern is that it can't show the content of *this

KBaichoo commented 5 months ago

See my PR here: https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/pull/33942 for a brief overview on some debug symbols related stuff.

I'd check that the section being referenced exists. Also what version of clang / gcc are you using? Likewise with gdb ?

I've ran into some issues of using newer toolchains with older gdb versions.

coolg92003 commented 5 months ago

hi @KBaichoo , Really Appreciated your reply! in our build container(ubuntu), I didn't find clang and see below for gdb and gcc version: gdb --version
GNU gdb (Ubuntu 10.2-0ubuntu1~20.04~1) 10.2 Copyright (C) 2021 Free Software Foundation, Inc. License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html gcc --version gcc (Ubuntu 11.4.0-2ubuntu1~20.04) 11.4.0 Copyright (C) 2021 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

BTW, which version of gdb and gcc works for you? I mean that it can read *this in gdb for envoy built by "-c dbg" thanks, Cliff

KBaichoo commented 5 months ago

neither of those versions look too old.

I actually build with clang 14 (which is what CI is using) and use gdb GNU gdb (GDB) 14.2. I know some other folks have tried use lldb when debugging and run into issues using gdb.

FWIW I'm able to get the value printed as expected following your experiment:

Thread 8 "wrk:worker_0" hit Breakpoint 1, Envoy::Network::ConnectionImpl::onRead (this=0x26a0bd3f6000, read_buffer_size=79)
    at source/common/network/connection_impl.cc:357
357       ASSERT(dispatcher_.isThreadSafe());
(gdb) p this->read_end_stream_
$1 = false

And these are the segments I have from in the debug build:

Congratulations! I still can't print *this thanks Cliff

coolg92003 commented 5 months ago

hi @KBaichoo , After building by below command, then gdb can show everything

cd /source; export PATH CC=clang CXX=clang++ && bazel build --define tcmalloc=debug -c dbg --copt=-Wno-unknown-warning-option --copt=-Wno-unused-but-set-variable --cxxopt=-Wno-unknown-warning-option --cxxopt=-Wno-unused-but-set-variable //source/exe:envoy

hope it help! Cliff
