Refactor parsing of /proc/<pid>/smaps
The Linux kernel exposes the information about MTE-protected pages via the
proc filesystem, more specifically through the smaps file.
What we're looking for is a mapping with the 'mt' flag, which tells us that
mapping was created with a PROT_MTE flag and, thus, is capable of using memory
tagging.
We already parse that file for other purposes (core file
generation/filtering), so this patch refactors the code to make the parsing
of the smaps file reusable for memory tagging.
The function linux_address_in_memtag_page uses the refactored code to allow
querying for memory tag support in a particular address, and it gets used in the
next patch.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2021-03-24 Luis Machado <luis.machado@linaro.org>
* linux-tdep.c (struct smaps_vmflags) <memory_tagging>: New flag
bit.
(struct smaps_data): New struct.
(decode_vmflags): Handle the 'mt' flag.
(parse_smaps_data): New function, refactored from
linux_find_memory_regions_full.
(linux_address_in_memtag_page): New function.
(linux_find_memory_regions_full): Refactor into parse_smaps_data.
* linux-tdep.h (linux_address_in_memtag_page): New prototype.
