[ Test Plan ] Considering the following C program: ``` __attribute__((target("arm"), noinline)) int thumb_func() { return 42; } __attribute__((target("thumb"))) int main() { return thumb_func(); } ``` If you build it using `gcc repro.c -ggdb3 -Og -o repro` and run the GDB using the following commands ... ``` b 3 r c ``` (you can save the contents above to a file and run GDB using `gdb -x script ./repro`) ... you will notice GDB broke the program and threw SIGILL. If you run the program without GDB, the program exits normally. [ Where problems could occur ] * GDB is a complex software. As the patch suggests, it may break other use cases (like single-stepping) entirely. * Since this is an ARM-only patch, it's unlikely to affect other CPU architectures. However, it is possible that this fix may break ARM64 execution. [ Other Info ] * This bug has been fixed in GDB 13, but the fix was never backported to GDB 12.
