This works around the issue of python2 not being unicode aware and
the config classes not properly returning instance of decoded raw
strings. This leads to length operations being performed on bytes
rather then logical characters.
We check for python2 and enfore decoding if not a text_type.
Fixes#412
See timothycrosley/isort#652 for more information. tl;dr is `pip install isort==4.3.0` fails, which is what `pip install -Ur requirements.txt` will attempt to do.
Ban this specific version as it causes issues.
* hexdump: adjust shown offset from src while repeating
* nearpc: make command repeatable to show further instructions
The pc gets adjusted to the last instructions address making it
visually easy to follow where to continue reading the assembly.
This also forwards repeating of emulate() and pdisass()
* telescope: make command repeatable with adjusted offset from src
This also forwards stack() to be repeatable.
* Make chain.get() to check vmmap first in bare metal mode
Make chain.get() limit to de-reference within the known page in
bare metal mode.
Since the address are all valid when mmu is not enable and all
the value are valid physical address. It will be de-referenced
even these addresses are not used and actually, it is data in
the most of case. Ex. 0x1 often means the value 1, not the
address 0x1.
Also, for issue #371, some addresses may be the MMIO registers.
The read operation on these address will break the state.
It is better to limit the de-reference address range. This patch
will also fix it, hopefully.
* Add custom vmmap add/del API in vmmap.py
In some cases, ex. bare metal, the pages information can not be
detected automatically. Also, the most of pwndbg feature rely on
page information such as highlighting.
User may want to create page information manually and maintain it
by himself.
This commit add python APIs to manually add/del page information
and they are isolated.
* Fix stack page detection in bare metal mode
We can not detect the stack page size in bare metal mode by
1. finding the ELF location after the stack page
2. page fault
A simple workaround is returning the current $sp page
and assume it is the stack page.
* Add vmmap control command to add/del customized vmmap
In some cases, ex. bare metal, the pages information can not be
detected automatically. Also, the most of pwndbg feature rely on
page information such as highlighting.
User may want to create page information manually and maintain it
by himself.
I add few commands to make user can add/del pages and load page
information from ELF sections.
* Fix the command amount for auto test to pass CI
* Add warning message
* Fix descriptions
* Fix cache issue and use bisect in insert API
* Keep LinuxOnly in find_elf_magic
* remove XXX
This allows to use args section via the context-sections config
setting (default off).
Additionally introduce a nearpc-show-args config value making it
possible to disable showing it trice while using the args section.
Fixes the problem that can be observed below:

* theme: make everything themable by avoiding explicite colors
This makes it posssible to theme everything logically grouped by
message types. This will also make it easier for future features
to keep a consistent way of coloring plus make every non-specific
coloring themeable automatically.
Direct explicit usage of colors should be avoided in future commits.
* theme: make banner fully customizable including positions
Since the python2 use `from __future__ import unicode_literals`, so the string literals will be `unicode` type in python2.
Use `six.string_types` in `isinstance()` instead of using `str` type.

* Fix malloc chunk names (#318)

newer glibc uses different names for the fields of malloc_chunk

* Fix "dt" offsets which are sometimes floating-point (#355)
* Fixes#362 - broken entry command (#363)
* Fix upper_stack_boundary not working introduced in 31f468e
The `upper_stack_boundary` we returned wasn't matching the one from `vmmap`.
Previously we determined upper address by having a memory read failure.
Recent changes made it so we got a `None` instead of the address in such situation.
This adds a parameter to `find_elf_magic` which lets us get a result when gdb.MemoryError occurs.
* Small refactor: add missing newlines
Adds `$rebase(offset)` gdbfunction that can be used to set up a breakpoint
over an offset from program image base.
Also changed a bit the pwndbg banner displayed at startup.
* Add dereference-limit and heap-dereference-limit parameters
This allows setting the number of pointers dereferenced during 'telescope'
and in the register context. Separately, the number of heap bins which
are dereferenced can be set.
* Cast LIMIT to an integer, and address off-by-one
This commit adds a `xinfo` command that calculates the offset of a
specified address to other interesting locations within the address
space:
* In the most general case, simply the offset of the pointer into the
current mapping is displayed.
* If the address specified is a stack adress, the offsets to the top and
the bottom of the stack, as well as to the current stack pointer,
frame pointer and stack canary are displayed.
* If the address points into a memory mapped file, the command
additionally shows the offset to the beginning of the file in memory and
on disk.
* Add elf.find_elf_magic() and remove duplicate code
* Add pwndbg.abi.LinuxOnly decorator
* Support bare metal environment
Use @pwndbg.abi.LinuxOnly and pwndbg.abi.linux to disable
several util functions which search the memory to find
the AUXV, the ELF header, or the page bound.

This is a simple typo, but the error message that GDB gave was interesting:
Previously, if you stopped on an instruction that does an indirect jump, like
this:
```
jmp [ecx*4 + 0xdeadbeef]
```
then pwndbg would the following exception:
```
gdb.error: evaluation of this expression requires the program to have a function "malloc".
```
The reason is that the code used `memory_sz` and passed that to gdb.Value, thus
creating a string value. When casting the string to a pointer later, GDB tries
to allocate a string in the inferior which failed since malloc is not available.
The fix is, of course, to use the correct function (`memory`) that returns an
int and not a string.
* Fix hard error when something else (not IDA) listens on IDA's port
The default IDA port is 8888 and it can happen that some other program (such as
a jupyter notebook) is listening on that address. This made pwndbg unusable,
because it would crash trying to connect to IDA.
* add timeout to ida connect
