Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with GCC 10.2.1.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

General improvements

  • New built-in functions:

    • The __has_builtin built-in preprocessor operator can now be used to query support for built-in GCC functions.
    • The __builtin_roundeven function has been added for the corresponding function from ISO/IEC TS 18661.

  • New command-line options:

    • -fallocation-dce removes unnecessary pairs of the new and delete operators.
    • -fprofile-partial-training informs the compiler that it should optimize only the size of code paths that are covered by the training run.
    • -fprofile-reproducible controls the level of reproducibility of profiles gathered by -fprofile-generate. Using this option you can rebuild a program with the same outcome. It is useful for distribution packages, for example.
    • Experimental: the new -fanalyzer option enables a new static analysis pass and associated warnings. This pass examines paths in the code to detect various common errors, for example, double-free bugs. Note that this option is available only for code written in C.

  • Interprocedural optimization improvements:

    • The interprocedural scalar replacement of aggregates (IPA-SRA) pass was re-implemented to work at link time. It can now also remove computing and returning unused return values.
    • The -finline-functions option is now enabled at the optimization level -O2. This option now reduces code size better. Inliner heuristics now work faster to avoid negative impact on -flto -O2 compile times.
    • Inliner heuristics and function cloning can now use value-range information to predict the effectiveness of individual transformations.
    • During link-time optimization the C++ One Definition Rule is now used to increase precision of type-based alias analysis.

  • Link-time optimization improvements:

    • The parallel phase of the Link Time Optimization (LTO) can now automatically detect a running jobserver of the make tool.

  • Profile-driven optimization improvements:

    • Profile maintenance during compilation and hot or cold code partitioning have been improved.
  • When GCC prints a warning, the option that controls the warning is now displayed as a hyperlink which you can click and see the documentation for the particular warning. To control this behavior, use the -fdiagnostics-urls option.

Language-specific improvements

  • Several newly implemented OpenMP 5.0 features have been added. For example, the conditional lastprivate clause, scan and loop directives, order(concurrent) and use_device_addr clauses support, if clauses on simd constructs or partial support for the declare variant directive.

Notable changes related to languages include:

C family

  • New attributes:

    • The access function and type attribute has been added. It describes how a function accesses objects passed to it by a pointer or reference and associates such arguments with integer arguments that denote the objects' sizes. You can also use this attribute to enable the detection of invalid accesses by user-defined functions, such as those diagnosed by the -Wstringop-overflow option.

  • New warnings:

    • -Wstring-compare, enabled by the -Wextra option, warns about equality and inequality expressions between zero and the result of a call to strcmp or strncmp when such expressions evaluate to a constant because the length of one argument is greater than the size of the array pointed to by the other argument.
    • -Wzero-length-bounds, enabled by the -Warray-bounds option, warns about accesses to elements of zero-length arrays that might overlap with other members of the same object.

  • Enhancements to existing warnings:

    • -Warray-bounds now detects more out-of-bounds accesses to member arrays and elements of zero-length arrays.
    • -Wformat-overflow now fully uses string length information calculated by the strlen optimization pass.
    • -Wrestrict detects overlapping accesses to dynamically allocated objects.
    • -Wreturn-local-addr diagnoses more instances of return statements returning addresses of automatic variables.
    • -Wstringop-overflow detects more out-of-bounds stores to member arrays including zero-length arrays, dynamically allocated objects, and variable length arrays. It now also detects more instances of reads of unterminated character arrays by the built-in string functions. In addition, the warning now detects out-of-bounds accesses by calls to user-defined functions declared with the new attribute access.
    • -Warith-conversion re-enables warnings from -Wconversion, -Wfloat-conversion, and -Wsign-conversion. These warnings are now disabled by default for expressions where the result of an arithmetic operation will not fit into the target type because of promotion, but where the operands of the expressions fit into the target type.

C

  • Several new features from the upcoming C2X revision of the ISO C standard are now supported. To enable them, use -std=c2x and -std=gnu2x. Some of these features are also supported as extensions when you compile with earlier C versions. Some features were previously supported as extensions and now have been added to the C standard. They are enabled by default in C2X mode and not diagnosed with -std=c2x -Wpedantic.

    • The [[]] attribute syntax is now supported.
    • In C2X mode, empty parentheses in a function definition give that function a type with a prototype for subsequent calls. Other old-style function definitions are diagnosed by default in C2X mode.
  • GCC now defaults to -fno-common. As a result, global variable accesses are more efficient on various targets. However, in the C language, global variables with multiple tentative definitions now cause linker errors. With the -fcommon option such definitions are silently merged during linking.

C++

  • The following C++20 features have been implemented:

    • Concepts, including the P0734R0, P0857R0, P1084R2, P1141R2, P0848R3, P1616R1, and P1452R2 proposals
    • P1668R1: Permitting unevaluated inline-assembly in constexpr functions
    • P1161R3: Deprecate a[b,c]
    • P0848R3: Conditionally trivial special member functions
    • P1091R3: Structured binding extensions
    • P1143R2: Adding the constinit keyword
    • P1152R4: Deprecating volatile
    • P0388R4: Permit conversions to arrays of unknown bound
    • P0784R7: More constexpr containers (constexpr new)
    • P1301R4: [[nodiscard("with reason")]]
    • P1814R0: Class template argument deduction for alias templates
    • P1816R0: Class template argument deduction for aggregates
    • P0960R3: Parenthesized initialization of aggregates
    • P1331R2: Permitting trivial default initialization in constexpr contexts
    • P1327R1: Allowing dynamic_cast and polymorphic typeid in constant expressions

    • P0912R5: Coroutines. The -fcoroutines option enables the support for coroutines

      To learn more about the above-mentioned proposals, see C++ Standards Support in GCC.

  • Several C++ defect reports have been resolved. You can find the overall defect report status on the C++ Defect Report Support in GCC page.

  • New warnings:

    • G++ can now detect modifying constant objects in the constexpr evaluation, which is undefined behavior.
    • Memory consumption of the compiler, when performing the constexpr evaluation, has been reduced.
    • The noexcept specifier is now properly treated as a complete-class context.
    • You can now use the deprecated attribute on namespaces.

Runtime library libstdc++

  • The following experimental C++2a support features have been improved:

    • Library concepts in <concepts> and <iterator>
    • Constrained algorithms in <ranges>, <algorithm>, and <memory>
    • New algorithms shift_left and shift_right
    • The std::span class template
    • Three-way comparisons in <compare> and throughout the library
    • Constexpr support in <algorithm> and other places
    • <stop_token> and std::jthread
    • std::atomic_ref and std::atomic<floating point>
    • Integer comparison functions (for example, cmp_equal, cmp_less, and other functions)
    • std::ssize and std::to_array
    • std::construct_at, std::destroy, and constexpr std::allocator
    • Mathematical constants in <numbers>
  • The random number generator std::random_device now supports RDSEED.

Fortran

  • The compiler now rejects mismatches between actual and dummy argument lists in a single file and prints an error. To turn these errors into warnings, use the new -fallow-argument-mismatch option. This option is implied with std=legacy. The -Wargument-mismatch option has been removed.
  • The binary, octal, and hexadecimal (BOZ) literal constants have been improved and now conform better to the Fortran 2008 and 2018 standards. In these Fortran standards, BOZ literal constants do not have types or kinds. With this enhancement, documented and undocumented extensions to the Fortran standards now emit errors during compilation. You can enable some of these extensions with the -fallow-invalid-boz option, which turns errors into warnings and the code is compiled as with the earlier GFortran.

Target-specific improvements

Changes to architecture and processor support include:

AMD64 and Intel 64

  • GCC now supports the Cooper Lake Intel CPU. To enable it, use the -march=cooperlake option, which enables the AVX512BF16 ISA extensions.
  • GCC now supports the Tiger Lake Intel CPU. To enable it, use the -march=tigerlake option, which enables the MOVDIRI MOVDIR64B AVX512VP2INTERSECT ISA extensions.

A.2. Changes in binutils
Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with binutils 2.35.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

The assembler

  • The .symver directive has been extended to update the visibility of the original symbol and assign one original symbol to different versioned symbols.
  • The Intel SERIALIZE and TSXLDTRK instructions are now supported.
  • The -mlfence-after-load=, -mlfence-before-indirect-branch=, and -mlfence-before-ret= options have been added to the x86 assembler to help mitigate CVE-2020-0551.
  • The --gdwarf-5 option has been added to the assembler to generate DWARF 5 debug output if such output is generated. Also, it is now possible to generate version 5 .debug_line sections.
  • The -malign-branch-boundary=NUM, -malign-branch=TYPE[+TYPE…​], -malign-branch-prefix-size=NUM, and -mbranches-within-32B-boundaries options have been added to the x86 assembler to align branches within a fixed boundary with segment prefixes or the NOP instructions.
  • The --gdwarf-cie-version command-line flag has been added. This flag controls which version of DWARF CIE (Common Information Entries) the assembler creates.

The linker

  • The command-line options --export-dynamic-symbol and --export-dynamic-symbol-list have been added to make symbols dynamic.
  • The -Map=filename command-line option has been extended. If filename is a directory, the linker will create the filename/output-filename.map file.
  • The --warn-textrel command-line option has been added to warn about DT_TEXTREL being set in a position-independent executable or shared object.
  • The command-line options --enable-non-contiguous-regions and --enable-non-contiguous-regions-warnings have been added.
  • Relative path names in INPUT() and GROUP() directives in linker scripts are now searched in relation to the directory of the linker script before other search paths.
  • The -z start-stop-visibility=…​ command-line option has been added to control the visibility of synthetic __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols.
  • The --dependency-file command-line option has been added to write a Make-style dependency file listing the input files consulted by the linker, like the files written by the compiler -M and -MP options.
  • The ld check for the PHDR segment not covered by LOAD segment error is more effective now. The check now catches cases that earlier versions of ld incorrectly allowed. If you see this error, it is likely you are linking with a bad linker script or the binary you are building is not intended to be loaded by a dynamic loader. In the latter case, the --no-dynamic-linker option is appropriate.
  • The --no-print-map-discarded command-line option has been added.

Other binary utilities

  • The readelf tool now displays symbol names differently when wide mode is not enabled. If the name is too long, it will be shortened and the last five characters replaced with "[…​]". You can restore the old behaviour with the -T or --silent-truncation option.
  • The readelf tool now has the -L or --lint or --enable-checks option, which enables warning messages about possible problems with the file(s) being examined. For example, with this option enabled, readelf will check for zero-sized sections, which are allowed by the ELF standard but might be potentially dangerous if the user was expecting them to actually contain something.
  • Binutils now supports debuginfod, an HTTP server for distributing ELF/DWARF debugging information as well as source code. When built with debuginfod, readelf and objdump can automatically query debuginfod servers for separate debugging files when such files otherwise cannot be found. To build binutils with debuginfod, pass the --with-debuginfod configure option. This requires libdebuginfod, the debuginfod client library. debuginfod is distributed with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. For more information, see https://sourceware.org/elfutils.
  • The --output option has been added to the ar program. This option can be used to specify the output directory when extracting members from an archive.
  • The --keep-section option has been added to objcopy and strip. This option keeps the specified section from being removed.
  • The --source-comment[=<txt>] option has been added to objdump. It provides a prefix to source code lines displayed in a disassembly.
  • The --set-section-alignment <section-name>=<align> option has been added to objcopy to allow the changing of section alignments.
  • The --verilog-data-width option has been added to objcopy for Verilog targets to control the width of data elements in the Verilog hexadecimal format.

  • The separate debug information file options of readelf (--debug-dump=links and --debug-dump=follow) and objdump (--dwarf=links and --dwarf=follow-links) will now display or follow (or both) multiple links if a file has more than one such link. This usually happens when the GCC -gsplit-dwarf option is used.

    In addition, the --dwarf=follow-links option for objdump now also affects its other display options. For example, when combined with the --syms option, it will cause the symbol tables in any linked debug information files to also be displayed. When combined with the --disassemble option, the --dwarf= follow-links option will ensure that any symbol tables in the linked files are read and used when disassembling code in the main file.

  • Dumping types encoded in the Compact Type Format are now supported in objdump and readelf.

A.3. Changes in elfutils
Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with elfutils 0.180.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

  • The new eu-elfclassify tool has been added to analyze ELF objects.
  • The new debuginfod server with a client tool and library has been added. debuginfod indexes and automatically fetches ELF, DWARF, and source from files and RPM archives through HTTP.
  • libebl is now directly compiled into libdw.so.
  • eu-readelf now has multiple new flags for notes, section numbering, and symbol tables.
  • libdw has improved multithreading support.
  • libdw now supports additional GNU DWARF extensions.
  • Better support for debug info for code built with GCC LTO (link time optimization). The eu-readelf and libdw utilities can now read and handle .gnu.debuglto_ sections, and correctly resolve file names for functions that are defined across compile units (CUs).
  • The eu-nm utility now explicitly identifies weak objects as V and common symbols as C.

A.4. Changes in GDB

    This new method returns a string representation of the Value object.

  • gdb.Type objfile

    This new property returns the objfile in which the type was defined.

  • gdb.lookup_static_symbol

    gdb.lookup_static_symbols

    These new functions support the lookup of symbols with static linkage. The first function returns the first matching symbol. The second one returns all matching symbols.

  • gdb.Objfile.lookup_global_symbol

    gdb.Objfile.lookup_static_symbol

    These new functions support lookup of symbols in an Objfile: global symbols and symbols with static linkage respectively.

  • gdb.Block

    This function now supports Python dictionary syntax, for example: symbol = some_block[variable], where symbol is of type gdb.Symbol.

Machine Interface (MI) improvements

  • A new default MI version 3 has been introduced (-i=mi3).

A.5. Changes in strace
Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with strace 5.7.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

Changes in behavior

  • The %process class now contains system calls associated with the process life cycle (creation, execution, termination):

    • kill, tkill, tgkill, pidfd_send_signal, and rt_sigqueueinfo have been added.
    • arch_prctl and unshare have been removed.
  • Messages about unknown tracees are now subject to the strace quietness setting -q (--quiet).
  • A new warning has been added. It occurs when the -A (--output-append-mode) option is used without -o (--output) or the -S (--summary-sort-by) option without -c/-C (--summary-only/--summary).

Improvements

  • Every short option now has a long option alias. This change brings the following improvements:

    • The ability to use human-readable settings for the -I (--interruptible) option.
    • The ability to silence specific messages using the -e quiet (--quiet) qualifier (which is an alias for the -q option), including messages that could not be silenced previously, for example path resolution messages and messages about process being superseded by execve.
    • The ability to specify selected flexible data (FD) decoding features using the -e decode-fds (--decode-fds) qualifier, which is an alias for the -y option.
    • The ability to set precision for the absolute timestamp, relative timestamp, and system call time output. Use the --absolute-timestamps, --relative-timestamps, and --syscall-times options, respectively.

  • System call return status filtering has been implemented with the -e status=set option and its aliases:

    • The -z (--successful-only) option limits system call printing to successful system calls only.
    • The -Z (--failed-only) option limits system call printing to failed system calls only.
  • The --pidns-translation option for PID (process ID) namespace translation has been added. This improvement addresses the Fedora bug BZ#1035433.
  • Seccomp-BPF can now be used to stop tracees only for filtered system calls. Use the --seccomp-bpf option to enable this feature.
  • Two new extensions to the -D (--daemonize) option have been implemented. They move strace into a separate process group (-DD or --daemonize=pgroup) and session (-DDD or --daemonize=session).
  • Interval specification in the when= subexpression of the system call tampering expressions has been implemented.
  • It is now possible to select the set of displayed columns in the call summary output using the -U (--summary-columns) option.
  • It is now possible to sort on any summary column.
  • System call count statistics have been enhanced: overhead is now applied per call.
  • It is now possible to show information about minimum and maximum call duration in the call summary output.
  • The system call delay injection and overhead values can now be supplied with a time measure unit suffix and provided in the IEEE 754 floating-point format. Please refer to the “Time specification format description” section of the strace manual page (available via the “scl enable devtoolset-10 — man strace” command) for details.
  • Printing of PIDs associated with process file descriptors (pidfds) in -yy (--decode-fds=pidfd) mode has been implemented.
  • Performance of the libdw-based stack traces printing has been improved by implementing a symbol-to-address cache.
  • The -e trace=%clock option has been added for tracing system calls reading of modifying system clocks.
  • The -e trace=%creds option has been added for tracing system calls related to process credentials.

  • Decoding of the following ioctl commands has been implemented: PTP_CLOCK_GETCAPS2, PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST2, PTP_PEROUT_REQUEST2, PTP_ENABLE_PPS2, PTP_SYS_OFFSET2, RTC_VL_READ, and WDIOC_*.
  • The HIDIOCGRAWUNIQ() ioctl command number printing has been implemented.
  • Decoding of the NETLINK_ROUTE netlink protocol has been enhanced.
  • Decoding of the following netlink attributes has been implemented: IFLA_*, TCA_ACT_FLAGS, TCA_STATS_PKT64, and UNIX_DIAG_UID.

  • Decoding of the NDA_LLADDR netlink neighbor table attribute has been fixed.
  • Decoding of the BPF_PROG_LOAD BPF system call command has been fixed.
  • The evdev ioctl bitset decoding has been fixed.

A.6. Changes in SystemTap
Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with SystemTap 4.3.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

  • Userspace probes can be targeted by the hexadecimal buildid from readelf -n. This alternative to a path name enables matching binaries to be probed under any name, and thus allows a single script to target a range of different versions. This feature works well in conjunction with the elfutils debuginfod server.
  • Script functions can use probe $context variables to access variables in the probed location, which allows the SystemTap scripts to use common logic to work with a variety of probes.

A.7. Changes in Valgrind
Copia collegamento

Red Hat Developer Toolset 10.0 is distributed with Valgrind 3.16.1.

The following features have been added or modified since the previous release of Red Hat Developer Toolset:

  • It is now possible to dynamically change the value of many command-line options while your program is running under Valgrind: through vgdb, through gdb connected to the Valgrind gdbserver, or through program client requests. To get a list of dynamically changeable options, run the valgrind --help-dyn-options command.
  • For the Cachegrind (cg_annotate) and Callgrind (callgrind_annotate) tools the --auto and --show-percs options now default to yes.
  • The Memcheck tool produces fewer false positive errors on optimized code. In particular, Memcheck now better handles the case when the compiler transformed an A && B check into B && A, where B could be undefined and A was false. Memcheck also better handles integer equality checks and non-equality checks on partially defined values.
  • The experimental Stack and Global Array Checking tool (exp-sgcheck) has been removed. An alternative for detecting stack and global array overruns is using the AddressSanitizer (ASAN) facility of GCC, which requires you to rebuild your code with the -fsanitize=address option.
