* Fix glibc-fastbin-bug option of find_fake_fast
Using the find_fake_fast option --glibc-fastbin-bug always resulted in an error, at least on 64-bit platforms.
This was because the option caused only 4 bytes to be read for the size, but then that gets passed to unpack() which expects 8 bytes.
Closes#1773

This commit adds a command that traverses the linked list beginning at a given
element, dumping its contents and the contents of all the elements that come
after it in the list. Traversal is configurable and can handle multiple types
of chains.
This commit adds the `break-if-taken` and `break-if-not-taken` commands,
which attach breakpoints to branch instructions that will stop the
inferior if said branch is taken or is not taken, respectively. It adds
an extra class, `pwndbg.gdblib.bpoint.Breakpoint`, which clears caches
before calling `stop()`, allowing for the use of register values inside
that function in breakpoint classes that derive from it. Additionally,
checking of whether the conditions for a branch to be taken have been
fulfilled is done through `DisassemblyAssistant.condition()`.
* Add `stepuntilasm` command
This commit adds a `stepuntilasm` command that, given a mnemonic and,
optionally, a set of operands, will step until a instruction that
matches both is found. Matching is string-based, as the user will likely
want to spell out the asm directive they want as text, and interpreting
assembly language conventions for all of the platforms pwndbg supports
is probably outside the scope of this change.

* Only run arch for testing
* Remove outdated arch repo
* Actually build the docker image
* Do not include site packages in sys.path
* Ignore `.relr.dyn` section; skip lines w/o spaces
Newer binaries can contain a `.relr.dyn` section to compress `R_X86_64_RELATIVE` relocation entries.
These binaries can be found for example on archlinux but also on Debian 12 for example.
`readelf` prints the content of the section similarly to this:
```
Relocation section '.relr.dyn' at offset 0x25220 contains 35 entries:
1198 offsets
00000000001ce8d0
00000000001ce8e0
```
Compared to `00000000001d2000 0000000000000025 R_X86_64_IRELATIVE 9f330` for
`.rela.plt`.
Pwndbg now chokes on the new format because it expects a space seperator where there is none.
It might be, that this is actually an upstream problem with binutils, because llvm-readelf prints this:
```
Relocation section '.relr.dyn' at offset 0x25220 contains 1198 entries:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name
00000000001ce8d0 0000000000000008 R_X86_64_RELATIVE
00000000001ce8e0 0000000000000008 R_X86_64_RELATIVE
```
Nevertheless, we aren't actually interested in `R_X86_64_RELATIVE` relocations so I guess it's fine to
just skip all lines that contain no spaces at all.
`.relr.dyn` can only containt `R_X86_64_RELATIVE` relocations as far as I understand
https://maskray.me/blog/2021-10-30-relative-relocations-and-relr
* Accept Full RELRO in test
Archlinux has libc and ld with Full RELRO.
We now just accept Partial and Full RELRO.
* Do not copy binaries from host to docker
The `Dockerfile` copies the whole pwndbg folder to the image.
If we have built binaries on the host before, these binaries will contain references to
the host system and *copied* to the image.
If we now run `context code` (inside docker) to have a look at the source code this will
fail, because we will try to refer to a path on the host system.
* Do not use loop index after loop
Do not use loop index after the loop. The tests assumed that the loop in line 186
would run at least once, thereby *resetting* `i` to zero. If we never enter the
loop, `i` will *continue* to have the value it had at the end of line 172.
This will cause the test to fail in mysterious ways because `i` is now not reset
to zero but still has the value `31` for example.
The solution is to never use `i` outside of a loop.

* setup.sh: cleanup the --user flag since we use venv now
Cleans up the --user flag from setup.sh since it is unused after we changed setup.sh to install Python dependencies in a virtual environment
* Remove --user flag from CI workflows
* Fix codecov problem
We need to run the python `coverage` library to collect coverage.
However, gdb was failing to find it.
Recently, pwndbg moved to using venvs. When pwndbg is initialized
it setups the venv "manually", that is, no "source .venv/bin/activate"
is needed. When we run gdb tests, we pass the `gdbinit.py` of pwndbg as a
command to gdb to be executed like this:
`gdb --silent --nx --nh -ex 'py import coverage;coverage.process_startup()' --command PATH_TO_gdbinit.py`
The problem is that *order* matters. This means that *first* coverage
is imported (by `-ex py ...`) and only *then* the init script is executed.
When `coverage` is first imported, it's library search path only looks
in system libraries of python, and not the venv that gdbinit.py would load.
So we would try to import an old version of coverage and fail.
One solution would be to move around the commands, but this would be an
ugly hack IMHO. **Instead**, we should just tell gdb that this is an **init**
command that has to be executed before other commands.
Previously, the order did not matter. All of pwndbg's dependencies were
installed directly as system libraries to python. So the library search path
was the same before and after loading `gdbinit.py`.

* feature: Add `killthreads` command (closes#1580)
This command allows the user to quickly kill multiple threads by
specyfying their ids as arguments to this command. It also supports
the `--all` flag, which will kill overy thread except the currently
selected one. This is useful for use with the `checkpoint` command.
The killing is done by calling `pthread_exit(0)`.
* fix: try fixing building test binaries by enabling -lpthread
* fix: remove error message check when calling pthread_exit
Removed the message check, because the error messages difffer between
versions of GDB.

This commit adds a fix and tests for #1600 and #752.
* https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg/issues/1600
* https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg/issues/752
Generally, for an example like this:
```cpp
struct A {
void foo(int, int) { };
};
int main() {
A a;
a.foo(1, 1);
}
```
The output for `info symbol <address of A::foo>` returns:
```
'A::foo(int, int) [clone.isra.0] + 3 in section .text of /root/pwndbg/tests/gdb-tests/tests/binaries/a.out\n'
```
We then used this code to parse this:
```py
# Expected format looks like this:
# main in section .text of /bin/bash
# main + 3 in section .text of /bin/bash
# system + 1 in section .text of /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
# No symbol matches system-1.
a, b, c, _ = result.split(maxsplit=3)
if b == "+":
return "%s+%s" % (a, c)
if b == "in":
return a
return ""
```
The `result.split(maxsplit=3)` here splitted the string to:
```py
['A::foo(int,',
'int)',
'[clone.isra.0] + 3 in section .text of /root/pwndbg/tests/gdb-tests/tests/binaries/a.out\n']
```
And since `b` was not `"+"` or `"in"` we eventually returned an empty
string instead of the `A::foo(int, int)` which would be expected here.
* Fix the bug when using LD_PRELOAD to load libc
The heap heuristics will try to find `libc.so.6` in the output of `info sharedlibrary`, but if we load libc with `LD_PRELOAD`, the filename of the libc might not be `libc.so.6`.
* Add test for `glibc.get_libc_filename_from_info_sharedlibrary`
* Refactor `pwndbg.glibc`
- Add type hints
- Use `info sharedlibrary` to find libc
- Update the regex of libc filename
- Rename `get_data_address()` to `get_data_section_address()`
* Add a function to dump libc ELF file's .data section
* Use the new methods to find `main_arena` and `mp_`
With ELF of libc, we can use the default value of `main_arena` and `mp_` to find their address
* Drop some unreliable methods for the heap heuristics
* Update the tests for the heap heuristics
* Show `main_arena` address in the `arenas` command output
* Make the heap hueristics support statically linked targets
* Drop some deprecated TLS functions and refactor the command
- Drop some deprecated TLS functions for the deprecated heap heuristics
- Don't call `pthread_self()` in the `tls` command without `-p` option
- Show the page of TLS in the `tls` command output
* Update the hint for the heap heuristics for multi-threaded
* Fix the wrong usage of the exception
* Fix the outdated description
* Return the default global_max_fast when we cannot find the address
* Enhance the output of `arena` and `mp`
- Show the address of the arena we print in the output of `arena` command if we didn't specify the address by ourselves.
- Avoid the bug that `arena` command might get an error if thread_arena doesn't allocate yet.
- Show the address of `mp_` in the output of the `mp` command
* Remove wrong hint
* Support using brute-force to find the address of main_arena
If the user allows, brute-force the left and right sides of the TLS address to find the closest possible value to the TLS address.
* Refactor the code about thread_arena and add the new brute-force strategy
In the .got section, brute-force search for possible TLS-reference values to find possible thread_arena locations
* Add tests for thread_arena and global_max_fast
- Check if we can get default global_max_fast
- Check if we can use brute-force to find thread_arena
* Update the output of `arenas`
* Add the test for the `tls` command
Add two tests for the `tls` command:
```
test_tls_address_and_command[x86-64] PASSED
test_tls_address_and_command[i386] PASSED
```
* Update and refactor the heuristics for `thread_arena` and `tcache`
- We provide an option for users to brute force `tcache` like what we did for `thread_arena`
- Cache `thread_arena` even when we are single-threaded
- Refactor the code for `thread_arena`, to make it work for `tcache` as well
- Update the tests for `tcache`
- Remove some redundant hint
* Fix the wrong cache mechanism
Cache the address of the arena instead of the instance of `Arena`, because `Arena` will cache the value of the field, resulting in getting the old value the next time the same property is used
* Update the description of some configs about heap heuristics
* Handling the case when tcache is NULL
* Handling the case when thread_arena is NULL
* Fix a bug that occurred when the TLS address could not be found
* Fix#1550
* Show tid only if no address is specified

* Revert accidental change
* Extend system path
* Hopefully fix PATH problems once and for all?
* fix import
* remove redundant part
* Enhance the checks before accessing the memory
- Use `pwndbg.gdblib.memory.peek()` instead of `pwndbg.gdblib.vmmap.find()` to check if the address is valid
- Directly access the memory when searching the `main_arena` in memory and catch the exception
* Make finding `main_arena` in memory more efficient and reliable
We only try the address that is aligned to `pwndbg.gdblib.arch.ptrsize`
* Avoid unnecessary memory accessing if possible
- Before we used `pwndbg.gdblib.memory.peek()` to check if an address is readable for GDB, we used `pwndbg.gdblib.vmmap.find()` to make sure that this address is in one of the pages, since accessing memory for embedded targets might be slow and expensive
- Create a new function: `is_readable_address` for `pwndbg.gdblib.memory`
* Fix wrong test for `main_arena`
The heap object should be reset before testing the multi-threaded condition
* Add the test to make sure the heap heuristics won't be affected by the vmmap result
Previously, we used `pwndbg.gdblib.vmmap.find()` to check whether the address is valid or not, but this might be a false positive for the address in the `[vsyscall]` page or in the page with a range from 0~0xffffffffffffffff (e.g. qemu-user).
This commit aims to include this scenario during the tests, to make sure the heap heuristics won't be affected by this.
* Use `gdb.MemoryError` instead of `Exception`
* Refactor TLS module
- Replace unreliable `__errno_location()` trick with `pthread_self()` to acquire TLS address
- Consolidate heap heuristics checks about TLS within the `pwndbg.gdblib.tls` module for better organization
* Bug fix for the `errno` command
Calling `__errno_location()` without locking the scheduler can cause another thread to inadvertently continue execution
* Refactor code about heap heuristics of thread-local variables
- Replace some checks with some functions in `pwndbg.gdblib.tls`
- Try to find tcache with `mp_.sbrk_base + 0x10` if the target is single-threaded
* Add tests for heap heuristics with multi-threaded
* Refacotr scheduler-locking related functions
- Move these functions into `pwndbg.gdblib.scheduler`
- Fetch the parameter value once (https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg/pull/1536#discussion_r1082549746)

* Fix Arch CI: install missing netcat (#1400)
The arch linux test_command_procinfo was failing bcoz the netcat was not
installed on arch build. This commit fixes it by:
1) installing gnu-netcat for arch linux setup-dev.sh
2) asserting that nc is available in the test itself, to prevent similar
regressions from happening on future/newer images
* Fix Arch CI: the load binary tests (#1400)
Before this commit we asserted whether the loaded binary in tests report
to find or not find debug symbols but this is irrelevant for the thing
we want to test there which is: pwndbg loading. What eventually cares is
whether Pwndbg got loaded and didn't raise an exception.
This commit fixes those tests so they should now work also on ArchLinux
CI and on all CI builds.
Additionally, it removes the `compile_binary` test utility function
which was redundant as we compile all test binaries via a makefile.

The cymbol command did not work on old GDB versions like 8.2 because
they require the ADDR argument to be passed into the `add-symbol-file`
command unlike newer GDB versions in which the argument is optional.
This can be seen below.
```
pwndbg> help add-symbol-file
Load symbols from FILE, assuming FILE has been dynamically loaded.
Usage: add-symbol-file FILE ADDR [-readnow | -readnever | -s SECT-NAME SECT-ADDR]...
ADDR is the starting address of the file's text.
Each '-s' argument provides a section name and address, and
should be specified if the data and bss segments are not contiguous
with the text. SECT-NAME is a section name to be loaded at SECT-ADDR.
The '-readnow' option will cause GDB to read the entire symbol file
immediately. This makes the command slower, but may make future operations
faster.
The '-readnever' option will prevent GDB from reading the symbol file's
symbolic debug information.

* fix shlint
* Fix crash when unable to get ehdr and fix vmmap coredump test
This commit fixes two issues and test them.
1. It changes the reads in `get_ehdr` to partial reads so that inability
to read the `vmmap.start` address there will not crash Pwndbg with
`gdb.error` but instead we will simply return `None` as expected from
this function. This crash could happen on Debian 10 (GDB 8.2.1) and
Ubuntu 18.04 (not sure which GDB) when you did:
- gdb ./binary-that-crashes
- `run`
- `generate-core-file /tmp/core`
- `file` - to unload the binary
- `core-file /tmp/core` - to load the generated core
At this point I think we may have preserved the old vmmap info and use
it in `get_ehdr` maybe, which then crashed? I am not sure, but this fix
here works.
To test this behavior properly I also added the `unload_file`
parametrization to the
`test_command_vmmap_on_coredump_on_crash_simple_binary` test.
2. We fix the vmmap coredump test case when the `info proc mappings` returns nothing on core
dumps on old GDBs. In such case we are missing the vmmap info about
the binary mapping, so now we properly remove it in the test.
This fixes the weird error that appeared on debian10 CI:
```
root@98cc3841eab9:/pwndbg/tests/gdb-tests/tests/binaries# ld -Ttext 0x400000 -o memory.out memory.o
ld: section .note.gnu.property LMA [00000000004000e8,0000000000400107] overlaps section .text LMA [0000000000400000,00000000004001a4]
```
It turned out that the .note.gnu.property address was choosen to be the
same as our hardcoded .text address and so we got into this issue.
This PR hardcodes the gnu section address.

"test",
None,
"test",
"on == AAAA\noff == BBBB\nauto == CCCC",
gdb.PARAM_AUTO_BOOLEAN,
scope="test",
)
```
In GDB:
```
pwndbg> show test
The current value of 'test' is 'auto'
pwndbg> set test on
Set test to 'on'
pwndbg> set test off
Set test to 'off'
pwndbg> set test auto_with_typo
"on", "off" or "auto" expected.
pwndbg> show test
The current value of 'test' is 'off'

2. `gdb.PARAM_AUTO_BOOLEAN` with `help_docstring`
In Python script:
```
pwndbg.gdblib.config.add_param(
"test",
"A",
"test",
"A == AAAA\nB == BBBB\nC == CCCC",
gdb.PARAM_ENUM,
["A", "B", "C"],
scope="test",
)
```
In GDB:
```
pwndbg> show test
The current value of 'test' is 'A'
pwndbg> set test B
Set test to 'B'
pwndbg> set test C
Set test to 'C'
pwndbg> set test D
Undefined item: "D".
pwndbg> show test
The current value of 'test' is 'C'
pwndbg> help show test
Show test
A == AAAA
B == BBBB
C == CCCC
pwndbg> help set test
Set test
A == AAAA
B == BBBB
C == CCCC
```
* Update the tests for gdblib parameter
* Use auto boolean for `safe-linking`
* Fix some comments
* Pass `help_docstring` directly
* Force callers of `add_param` to use keyword arguments
* Create `add_heap_param()` to avoid setting the scope of param everytime
* Add a header to the vmmap table
A simple header has been added to the output of vmmap which helps new users identify the columns.
* fix: lint
* fix: failing test
Adjust the length of expected vmmaps
* fix: tests again
* Fix parameter default values
Before this commit the created gdb.Parameter default values were not set
properly. Now, we set the object's .value field properly with the
provided default value.
* fix issue with set/show docstring
* fix lint
* fix lint
* fix lint
* fix parameter further...
* fix flake8 lint
* Increase CI timeout to 20 minutes
* Fixes: set context-sections '' and add more opts to set empty sections
The `validate_context_sections` function started to receive a string of
`"''"` after the changes in eabab31. Before those changes, it always
received an empty string (`""`).
I am not sure why this behavior changed in that commit, but the current
behavior resembles the native GDB behavior more. We can see this here on
a GDB native parameter:
```
(gdb) set exec-wrapper ''
(gdb) show exec-wrapper
The wrapper for running programs is "''".
```
And so we will keep this native behavior for our config variables for
now. But since this changed, I want to keep the old behavior of: `set
context-sections ''` working, and so this commit brings it.
Additionally, we also now allow setting empty context via multiple
values: empty string, empty quotations or double quotations and with
strings like `-` or `none`.
...and this commit comes with tests for this behavior so it will be
harder to introduce such issues anymore :)

* fix: make mprotect command truly multi-arch
Added register saving based on reg_sets defined for each processor architecture, additionally shellcraft is used to generate the arch-specific shellcode.
Unfortunately this command is not currently tested on platforms other than x86_64.
* Update pwndbg/commands/mprotect.py

* mprotect: Add parsing, alignment to the addr argument
This change makes sure that the addr argument is parsed as an gdb expression (so you can use registers for example) and aligns it to the nearest page boundary.
* mprotect: Clean up register saving, print the result
Cleaned up saving of registers and added printing of the results, as per disconnect's sugesstions.
* Simplify the test for mprotect
Simplify the code and remove the useless binary
* Update tests/test_mprotect.py

* Add reset_on_thread decorator
* Apply reset_on_thread to Heap.multithreaded
* Add multithreaded malloc_chunk tests
* Clarify comment in C source
* Clarify expected thread number with assert in test
* Fix#1256: fixes next cmds hangs on segfaults
Before this commit the next/step commands like `nextret`, `stepret`,
`nextsyscall`, `nextproginstr` etc. would hang if they approach a
segfault. This commit fixes it by checking for ANY signals by executing
the GDB's `info prog` command and parsing its output.
* fix lint
* Move symbol.py to gdblib
* Renamed private methods
* Renamed pwndbg.symbol to pwndbg.gdblib.symbol
* Cleanup symbol.py
* Fix lint issues
* Handle tls error on symbol lookup
* Fix merge conflicts
* Remove old way of looking up symbols
This commit adds a test for context disasm showing of file descriptors
file paths in syscalls like read() or close().
It also fixes a small issue when Pwndbg is run with PWNDBG_DISABLE_COLORS=1
This issue was that executing:
```
pi '{a:2}'.format(a=pwndbg.color.context.prefix(pwndbg.config.code_prefix))
```
Failed when Pwndbg was run with disabled colors. It failed because our
generate color functions in pwndbg/color/* ended up not processing the
input argument -- which here is a Pwndbg config Paramater object -- so
that we got a very non obvious exception:
```
Exception occurred: context: unsupported format string passed to Parameter.__format__ (<class 'TypeError'>)
```
This issue could hypothetically also exist if our config value would be
empty I think. So with the fix in this commit, where we do str(x) over
the color funciton argument should fix this issue in all cases.
Turns out the mprotect command didn't ever work, as it was amd64 only, but used x86 syscall numbers to call mprotect. I have refactored the command to use shellcraft to generate the shellcode that calls mprotect. I have also unit-tested this command.
