.gdbinit - A user-friendly gdb configuration file
# INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: save as ~/.gdbinit
#
# DESCRIPTION: A user-friendly gdb configuration file.
#
# REVISION : 7.3 (16/04/2010)
#
# CONTRIBUTORS: mammon_, elaine, pusillus, mong, zhang le, l0kit,
# truthix the cyberpunk, fG!, gln
#
# FEEDBACK: https://www.reverse-engineering.net
# The Linux Area
# Topic: "+HCU's .gdbinit Version 7.1 -- humble announce"
# http://reverse.put.as
#
# NOTES: 'help user' in gdb will list the commands/descriptions in this file
# 'context on' now enables auto-display of context screen
#
# MAC OS X NOTES: If you are using this on Mac OS X, you must either attach gdb to a process
# or launch gdb without any options and then load the binary file you want to analyse with "exec-file" option
# If you load the binary from the command line, like $gdb binary-name, this will not work as it should
# For more information, read it here http://reverse.put.as/2008/11/28/apples-gdb-bug/
#
# UPDATE: This bug can be fixed in gdb source. Refer to http://reverse.put.as/2009/08/10/fix-for-apples-gdb-bug-or-why-apple-forks-are-bad/
# and http://reverse.put.as/2009/08/26/gdb-patches/ (if you want the fixed binary for i386)
#
# CHANGELOG:
#
# Version 7.3 (16/04/2010)
# Support for 64bits targets. Default is 32bits, you should modify the variable or use the 32bits or 64bits to choose the mode.
# I couldn't find another way to recognize the type of binary… Testing the register doesn't work that well.
# TODO: fix objectivec messages and stepo for 64bits
#
# Version 7.2.1 (24/11/2009)
# Another fix to stepo (0xFF92 missing)
#
# Version 7.2 (11/10/2009)
# Added the smallregisters function to create 16 and 8 bit versions from the registers EAX, EBX, ECX, EDX
# Revised and fixed all the dumpjump stuff, following Intel manuals. There were some errors (thx to rev who pointed the jle problem).
# Small fix to stepo command (missed a few call types)
#
# Version 7.1.7
# Added the possibility to modify what's displayed with the context window. You can change default options at the gdb options part. For example, kernel debugging is much slower if the stack display is enabled...
# New commands enableobjectivec, enablecpuregisters, enablestack, enabledatawin and their disable equivalents (to support realtime change of default options)
# Fixed problem with the assemble command. I was calling /bin/echo which doesn't support the -e option ! DUH ! Should have used bash internal version.
# Small fixes to colours...
# New commands enablesolib and disablesolib . Just shortcuts for the stop-on-solib-events fantastic trick ! Hey... I'm lazy ;)
# Fixed this: Possible removal of "u" command, info udot is missing in gdb 6.8-debian . Doesn't exist on OS X so bye bye !!!
# Displays affected flags in jump decisions
#
# Version 7.1.6
# Added modified assemble command from Tavis Ormandy (further modified to work with Mac OS X) (shell commands used use full path name, working for Leopard, modify for others if necessary)
# Renamed thread command to threads because thread is an internal gdb command that allows to move between program threads
#
# Version 7.1.5 (04/01/2009)
# Fixed crash on Leopard ! There was a If Else condition where the else had no code and that made gdb crash on Leopard (CRAZY!!!!)
# Better code indention
#
# Version 7.1.4 (02/01/2009)
# Bug in show objective c messages with Leopard ???
# Nop routine support for single address or range (contribution from gln [ghalen at hack.se])
# Used the same code from nop to null routine
#
# Version 7.1.3 (31/12/2008)
# Added a new command 'stepo'. This command will step a temporary breakpoint on next instruction after the call, so you can skip over
# the call. Did this because normal commands not always skip over (mainly with objc_msgSend)
#
# Version 7.1.2 (31/12/2008)
# Support for the jump decision (will display if a conditional jump will be taken or not)
#
# Version 7.1.1 (29/12/2008)
# Moved gdb options to the beginning (makes more sense)
# Added support to dump message being sent to msgSend (easier to understand what's going on)
#
# Version 7.1
# Fixed serious (and old) bug in dd and datawin, causing dereference of
# obviously invalid address. See below:
# gdb$ dd 0xffffffff
# FFFFFFFF : Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffff
#
# Version 7.0
# Added cls command.
# Improved documentation of many commands.
# Removed bp_alloc, was neither portable nor usefull.
# Checking of passed argument(s) in these commands:
# contextsize-stack, contextsize-data, contextsize-code
# bp, bpc, bpe, bpd, bpt, bpm, bhb,...
# Fixed bp and bhb inconsistencies, look at * signs in Version 6.2
# Bugfix in bhb command, changed "break" to "hb" command body
# Removed $SHOW_CONTEXT=1 from several commands, this variable
# should only be controlled globally with context-on and context-off
# Improved stack, func, var and sig, dis, n, go,...
# they take optional argument(s) now
# Fixed wrong $SHOW_CONTEXT assignment in context-off
# Fixed serious bug in cft command, forgotten ~ sign
# Fixed these bugs in step_to_call:
# 1) the correct logging sequence is:
# set logging file > set logging redirect > set logging on
# 2) $SHOW_CONTEXT is now correctly restored from $_saved_ctx
# Fixed these bugs in trace_calls:
# 1) the correct logging sequence is:
# set logging file > set logging overwrite >
# set logging redirect > set logging on
# 2) removed the "clean up trace file" part, which is not needed now,
# stepi output is properly redirected to /dev/null
# 3) $SHOW_CONTEXT is now correctly restored from $_saved_ctx
# Fixed bug in trace_run:
# 1) $SHOW_CONTEXT is now correctly restored from $_saved_ctx
# Fixed print_insn_type -- removed invalid semicolons!, wrong value checking,
# Added TODO entry regarding the "u" command
# Changed name from gas_assemble to assemble_gas due to consistency
# Output from assemble and assemble_gas is now similar, because i made
# both of them to use objdump, with respect to output format (AT&T|Intel).
# Whole code was checked and made more consistent, readable/maintainable.
#
# Version 6.2
# Add global variables to allow user to control stack, data and code window sizes
# Increase readability for registers
# Some corrections (hexdump, ddump, context, cfp, assemble, gas_asm, tips, prompt)
#
# Version 6.1-color-user
# Took the Gentoo route and ran sed s/user/user/g
#
# Version 6.1-color
# Added color fixes from
# http://gnurbs.blogsome.com/2006/12/22/colorizing-mamons-gdbinit/
#
# Version 6.1
# Fixed filename in step_to_call so it points to /dev/null
# Changed location of logfiles from /tmp to ~
#
# Version 6
# Added print_insn_type, get_insn_type, context-on, context-off commands
# Added trace_calls, trace_run, step_to_call commands
# Changed hook-stop so it checks $SHOW_CONTEXT variable
#
# Version 5
# Added bpm, dump_bin, dump_hex, bp_alloc commands
# Added 'assemble' by elaine, 'gas_asm' by mong
# Added Tip Topics for aspiring users ;)
#
# Version 4
# Added eflags-changing insns by pusillus
# Added bp, nop, null, and int3 patch commands, also hook-stop
#
# Version 3
# Incorporated elaine's if/else goodness into the hex/ascii dump
#
# Version 2
# Radix bugfix by elaine
#
# TODO:
# Add dump, append, set write, etc commands
# Add more tips !
