We don't need to disable ASLR, so don't try. If gdb tries but fails, the test runs normally, but all.sh then trips up because it sees `warning: Error disabling address space randomization: Operation not permitted` and interprets it as an error that indicates a test failure.

# Purpose
|
|
#
|
|
# Run a test using the debugger to check that the mbedtls_platform_zeroize()
|
|
# function in platform_util.h is not being optimized out by the compiler. To do
|
|
# so, the script loads the test program at programs/test/zeroize.c and sets a
|
|
# breakpoint at the last return statement in main(). When the breakpoint is
|
|
# hit, the debugger manually checks the contents to be zeroized and checks that
|
|
# it is actually cleared.
|
|
#
|
|
# The mbedtls_platform_zeroize() test is debugger driven because there does not
|
|
# seem to be a mechanism to reliably check whether the zeroize calls are being
|
|
# eliminated by compiler optimizations from within the compiled program. The
|
|
# problem is that a compiler would typically remove what it considers to be
|
|
# "unecessary" assignments as part of redundant code elimination. To identify
|
|
# such code, the compilar will create some form dependency graph between
|
|
# reads and writes to variables (among other situations). It will then use this
|
|
# data structure to remove redundant code that does not have an impact on the
|
|
# program's observable behavior. In the case of mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), an
|
|
# intelligent compiler could determine that this function clears a block of
|
|
# memory that is not accessed later in the program, so removing the call to
|
|
# mbedtls_platform_zeroize() does not have an observable behavior. However,
|
|
# inserting a test after a call to mbedtls_platform_zeroize() to check whether
|
|
# the block of memory was correctly zeroed would force the compiler to not
|
|
# eliminate the mbedtls_platform_zeroize() call. If this does not occur, then
|
|
# the compiler potentially has a bug.
|
|
#
|
|
# Note: This test requires that the test program is compiled with -g3.
|
|
#
|
|
# WARNING: There does not seem to be a mechanism in GDB scripts to set a
|
|
# breakpoint at the end of a function (probably because there are a lot of
|
|
# complications as function can have multiple exit points, etc). Therefore, it
|
|
# was necessary to hard-code the line number of the breakpoint in the zeroize.c
|
|
# test app. The assumption is that zeroize.c is a simple test app that does not
|
|
# change often (as opposed to the actual library code), so the breakpoint line
|
|
# number does not need to be updated often.
