Seems that these codes are redundant, can we simplify this?

Updating D54697: [llvm-objdump] Add Version References dumper (PR30241)

Could you add tests for the cases where a) there is no DT_VERNEEDNUM tag, and b) where it has a value of 0, please.

Could you also point me at some documentation describing the VerNeed structs etc.

Nit: Spurious blank line?

tools/llvm-objdump/ELFDump.cpp
171 ↗(On Diff #174737)

d_val's type is different in 32 bit and 64-bit ELF, so this should be a type large enough to hold either version (i.e. uin64_t).

179–181 ↗(On Diff #174737)

Does GNU objdump print the header if there is a DT_VERNEEDNUM tag with a value of 0? I feel like it would be reasonable to do so in our case.

187 ↗(On Diff #174737)

You can use ELFT::Elf_Shdr here and elsewhere directly, and avoid the need for the typename.

I'm also not sure what "GNUVerDepSec" means, so that probably needs expanding a bit more (especially the "Dep" part).

195 ↗(On Diff #174737)

Rather than having this big if statement, do

if (GnuVerDepSec != nullptr)
  return;
202 ↗(On Diff #174737)

unsigned -> uint64_t to match my earlier comment.

Maybe worth replacing I with VerNeedIndex or something, and J below similarly, just to disambiguate them a bit more.

208 ↗(On Diff #174737)

unsigned is probably the wrong type. Use the type of vn_cnt or just the largest uint*_t type needed.

197–198 ↗(On Diff #174716)

I'm trying to understand the structure of the VerNeed stuff. Is it a variable size block, and hence the need to iterate over bytes rather than struct instances?

Also, prefer reinterpret_cast instead of C-style, here and elsewhere in this function.

162 ↗(On Diff #174605)

printSymbolVersionRef -> printSymbolVersionRefs or printSymbolVersionReferences

164 ↗(On Diff #174605)

Why not use using here?

239–259 ↗(On Diff #174605)

I'm not sure I follow what you mean?

tools/llvm-objdump/llvm-objdump.cpp
2224 ↗(On Diff #174716)

put the return on a new line, since printELFSymbolVersionRef doesn't return anything.

Sure, I will add them

I use typedef here, just like what they do in other functions.

I mean, these functions are similar (they all cast ELF<32|64><BE|LE> to ElfObj), can we simplify these functions?

I want to use YAML2Obj to generate the test files, but there are something wrong with that tool. So, I have to write a patch for that. This patch have to be suspended for some time, until that one landed ...

Hi @Higuoxing. Is this ready for review again? It is currently marked as WIP/changes planned.

This works, but there are some little refactors needed. Besides, I cannot give enough test cases right now ...

(WIP) This is a backup.

I did not see this patch earlier and so worked on something very close to this for some time. I stopped my work
and shared the ideas/code I have in the comments here :)

tools/llvm-objdump/ELFDump.cpp
288 ↗(On Diff #187942)

If you move this loop to printSymbolVersionInfo and change the printSymbolVersionDependency signature
to printSymbolVersionDependency(const typename ELFT::Shdr &Shdr, ArrayRef<uint8_t> Contents)
that probably will be better, because for printSymbolVersionDefinition implementation you would also
need to iterate over all sections and take the content. That can be done in a single place.

I mean the code in printSymbolVersionInfo can be like:

template <class ELFT>
static void printSymbolVersionInfo(const ELFFile<ELFT> *Elf) {
  typedef typename ELFT::Shdr Elf_Shdr;

  auto SecOrErr = Elf->sections();
  if (!SecOrErr)
    report_fatal_error(errorToErrorCode(SecOrErr.takeError()).message());

  for (const Elf_Shdr &Shdr : *SecOrErr) {
    if (Shdr.sh_type != ELF::SHT_GNU_verdef &&
        Shdr.sh_type != ELF::SHT_GNU_verneed)
      continue;

    auto ContentsOrErr = Elf->getSectionContents(&Shdr);
    if (!ContentsOrErr)
      report_fatal_error(errorToErrorCode(ContentsOrErr.takeError()).message());

    if (Shdr.sh_type == ELF::SHT_GNU_verdef)
      printSymbolVersionDefinition<ELFT>(Shdr, *ContentsOrErr);
    else if (Shdr.sh_type == ELF::SHT_GNU_verneed)
      printSymbolVersionDependency<ELFT>(Shdr, *ContentsOrErr);
  }
}
294 ↗(On Diff #187942)

Actually, you do not need this I think.
You can simply iterate over Elf_Verneed entries until vn_next != 0.

300 ↗(On Diff #187942)

I would use getSectionContents (see sample above), because it does more checks.

316 ↗(On Diff #187942)

The same, I think, you can simply iterate until vna_next != 0.

test/tools/llvm-objdump/verneed-wrong-info.test
5 ↗(On Diff #187942)

The case looks simple, so I would remove the link and just describe it.
i.e. something like:

"We have a SHT_GNU_verneed section with a broken sh_info field that says the section
contains more entries that it actually have"

Oh, thank you @grimar , I am wandering that whether the dumping order of verneed and verdef sections is important? Sometimes, the verneed section is before verdef and sometimes verneed is after verdef.

I found that elf2yaml codes could be used here, so I just do some copy and paste work.

I don't know if we need some checks on sh_info field and DT_VERNEED, just like what gnu-objdump do.

I hope @jhenderson will re-check it though :)

303 ↗(On Diff #188074)

Shouldn't you be able to get Filename from Elf?

313 ↗(On Diff #188074)

If you're not going to implement SHT_GNU_verneed in this patch then I think you should
get rid of Shdr.sh_type != ELF::SHT_GNU_verneed.

288 ↗(On Diff #187942)

I did not notice that, but if so then I guess GNU objdump just print them in the same order as they are in a section table probably.
i.e. the same is done in this patch.

Sorry, I cannot find a getFileName() method in Elf or something else like that.

This looks fine, thanks! (with a minor nit addressed)

You do not need this if, this condition is always true now.

Yeah, I see now. Nevermind, I looked at the wrong class I think.

Use PRIu16, not "u" here.

326 ↗(On Diff #188105)

You don't need this if as the early continue above means that this if will always be true.

239–259 ↗(On Diff #174605)

You're welcome to try some sort of refactor, but do it in another patch.
