@janvorli Can you help me figure out how to debug a problem with this change?

This PR updates coredistools.dll/so/dylib to a newly built version. This PR includes #96286, which has various related changes but doesn't bump the coredistools package version. That PR passes GCStress.

This PR fails on linux x64 GCStress (maybe others), apparently during tests which are run out of process, so are spawned. Swapping in an older coredistools succeeds.

For example (in my local WSL build/run):

export DOTNET_TieredCompilation=0
export DOTNET_GCStress=4

The question is: how do I track down what is causing the 0x80004005 error? It seems I need to use lldb to get SOS functionality, and I'm not sure how to work with LLDB with multiple spawned processes as well as GCStress (so lots of "illegal" instructions). It seems that process handle --pass true --stop false --notify false SIGILL helps with GCStress, but I'm not sure how and where to stop when the actual interesting exception occurs.

Any suggestions?

[janvorli]

@BruceForstall I've just found that starting with LLDB 14, there is a setting to debug child processes - at fork, the debugger switches to the spawned process and continues debugging it. You can use the following LLDB command settings set target.process.follow-fork-mode child to enable that.

However, when debugging stuff in child process, I usually try to figure out the command line to run the child standalone so that I don't have to do anything special.

There is also an env variable BuildAsStandalone that you can set to true before building the tests. That causes the tests to be built the "old way" without multiple tests being merged". So, each test gets its own .sh. I find it useful in cases like this.

[janvorli]

@BruceForstall I have tried to build your branch and build the tests with env var BuildAsStandalone=true. The baseservices/exceptions/unhandled/unhandledTester/unhandledTester.sh reproduces the issue in the main process, so you don't need to fiddle with child process debugging. Btw, with the GC stress, you'll also need to treat the SIGSEGV the same way as SIGILL, both are coming from the instrumentation.

[BruceForstall]

@janvorli Thanks! I'll go build with BuildAsStandalone=true.

[janvorli]

I've also noticed that the issue occured on the first SIGILL, there were SIGSEGVs before that and they were processed ok. So just using process handle --pass true --stop false --notify false SIGSEGV will get the debugger break at the problematic spot.

[janvorli]

It seems that the problem is actually that we only handle the STATUS_PRIVILEGED_INSTRUCTION as the GC stress instrumentation instruction exceptions. But the SIGILL generates STATUS_ILLEGAL_INSTRUCTION, which we don't process in any way, which explains the behavior.
The code looks like this:

    0x7fff792dcc2c: lock
    0x7fff792dcc2d: hlt
    0x7fff792dcc2e: movb   $0x11, %cl
    0x7fff792dcc30: hlt

My guess is that the "lock" is not expected there and may somehow stem from incorrect disassembly of the previous instruction when we instrument it.

[janvorli]

Hmm, I guess this makes it clear:

00007fff`792dcc2d 0fb111               cmpxchg dword ptr [rcx], edx (gcstress)

Seems like we have skipped the lock and instrumented just the cmpxchg that the lock is part of.

[BruceForstall]

Ah, interesting. The change here is that I've rebuilt coredistools with a current LLVM. That's the disassembler we're using for instrumenting during GCStress. Perhaps it has a bug disassembling "lock", or perhaps the VM needs to handle "lock" differently with the new disassembler?

[janvorli]

One or the other may be true. Depends on whether the change in the coredistool / LLVM was intentional or not.

GCStress failures are #94393, #96364

[BruceForstall]

@janvorli Thanks again for your help investigating.

There was code in coredistools to specially handle x86 prefixes, to work around an LLVM bug that didn't treat the prefixes as part of the prefixed instruction. I removed this code because it was written 7-8 years ago, and various information on the internet made it sound like the LLVM bug had been fixed. Apparently it has not been fixed, at least for lock. It is surprising that the problem only manifested on Linux and not Windows -- maybe we don't use lock on Windows?

In any case, I restored the removed code and everything looks good now.
