This article brings you relevant knowledge about PHP, which mainly introduces the relevant content about using gdb to debug source code. Let’s take a look at it together. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
Recommended study: "PHP Video Tutorial"
There is a debug mode when php is compiled, this mode will turn off memory optimization. Prompt memory leaks, shielding call stack optimization allows us to see the complete PHP C-level call stack.
Usually I compile two php versions (one normal, one with debug enabled) in different directories, and decide which one to use through export.
You can see configure-options through the php-config command, modify the prefix and with-config-file-path to the new directory, and then add the --enable-debug command

After modification, it will probably look like this. Then compile and install to get the debug version.

Just see DEBUG in php --version
yongkbmaster ➜ ~ /data/env/runtime/php-7.1.33-debug/bin/php --version PHP 7.1.33 (cli) (built: Dec 29 2020 19:16:50) ( NTS DEBUG ) Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group Zend Engine v3.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologie
Note: The debug version of the extension needs to be compiled again. During installation, you cannot copy the normal version of so. The installation method is the same as that of ordinary extensions. Generally, there is no need to open additional debug parameters. If you need to debug an extension such as swoole, you need to set the debug parameters of the extension. You can refer to the ./configure file description of the extension.
Here is a brief introduction to the basic use of gdb. For more detailed usage, you can google it yourself.
Start gdb
Capture process
gdb -p {pid}run method starts
gdb php run test3.php
Through core file
gdb -c core.8451
Breakpoint
break n: Set a breakpoint at line n (you can bring the code path and code name)
//注意：这里只能断点c代码，php文件不行的，var.c:201在php-7.1.33是var_dump的入口 break var.c:201
b fn1 if a>b: Conditional breakpoint setting
break func (break is abbreviated as b): Set a breakpoint at the entrance of function func()
//大部分php的方法在c层面的方法名都是zif_ + php方法名。 例如 var_dump 在c的方法名叫zif_var_dump break zif_var_dump
delete breakpoint Number n: Delete the nth breakpoint
disable Breakpoint number n: Pause the nth breakpoint
enable Breakpoint number n: Enable the nth breakpoint
clear line number n: Clear the breakpoint on line n
info b (info breakpoints): Display the breakpoint settings of the current program
delete breakpoints: Clear all breakpoints
Others
list (abbreviated as l), its function is to list the source code of the program. By default, 10 lines are displayed at a time .
list line number: will display the 10 lines of code before and after the current file centered on the "line number",
print a: will display The value of a
continue (abbreviated as c): Continue execution to the next breakpoint (or end of the run). You need to press this after setting a breakpoint.
next (abbreviation n): current function, next line
step (abbreviation s): jump into the function
where/bt: currently running stack list;
This is the focus of this article. PHP provides gdb A set of small tools, in the .gdbinit file in the source code directory, which can help us make better gdb php source code.
Preparation
For a better demonstration, I will prepare a php file here.
<?php
const A = 'test const';
const B = 'test const B';
class B {
public $a = 'test';
public function funB() {
var_dump('test funB');
}
}
class C extends B {
public function funC() {
var_dump('test funC');
}
}
$a = 'test';
$b = ['a1' => 1, 'a2' => 2];
$c = new B();
$d = [A, B];
$e = new C();
$f = $b;
var_dump($a, $b, $c, $d, $e, $f);
get_object_vars($e);Start gdb and set 2 breakpoints.
gdb php //注意这里要用debug版本的 (gdb) break var.c:211 Breakpoint 1 at 0x76e717: file /data/env/runtime/php-7.1.33-src/ext/standard/var.c, line 211.

Then load the gadget
source /data/env/runtime/php-7.1.33-src/.gdbinit

zbacktrace to display the current php call stack

}print_ht Output HashTable. HashTable is an important data structure at the bottom of PHP. It is the implementation of PHP array. You can understand it as C-level PHP array. HashTable is also widely used in PHP source code to store various k v structure or array structure.

}print_htptr is similar to print_ht, it outputs the address of zval instead of the value of zval

[0] a1 => 0x7ffff1793e20
[1] a2 => 0x7ffff1793e40
}print_htstr is similar to print_ht, except that the HashTable stores c char instead of zval, but this This situation seems to be rare in the source code. In most cases of storing strings, zend string will be used directly. I searched around and found a place in php_cli_server_mime_type_ctor where
(gdb) print_htstr &server->extension_mime_types
Hash(2)[0x11b9228]: {
[0] ez => application/andrew-inset
[1] aw => application/applixware
}print_ft is similar to print_ht, but it is stored in HashTable. Is the address of zend_function

[0] funb => "funB"
}print_inh Outputs class-related information
(gdb) print_inh &args[4].value.obj.ce
class C extends B {

}print_pi Outputs attribute-related information in the object. It needs to pass in an address of zend_property_info type, which is used in zend_object_handlers.c:492 , it can be triggered by get_object_vars($e) in PHP.
