[PULL 10/15] target/arm/arm-semi: fix SYS_OPEN to return nonzero filehan

Subject: [PULL 10/15] target/arm/arm-semi: fix SYS_OPEN to return nonzero filehandle
Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2020 14:28:11 +0000

From: Masahiro Yamada <address@hidden>

According to the specification "Semihosting for AArch32 and Aarch64",
the SYS_OPEN operation should return:

 - A nonzero handle if the call is successful
 - -1 if the call is not successful

So, it should never return 0.

Prior to commit 35e9a0a8ce4b ("target/arm/arm-semi: Make semihosting
code hand out its own file descriptors"), the guest fd matched to the
host fd. It returned a nonzero handle on success since the fd 0 is
already used for stdin.

Now that the guest fd is the index of guestfd_array, it starts from 0.

I noticed this issue particularly because Trusted Firmware-A built with
PLAT=qemu is no longer working. Its io_semihosting driver only handles
a positive return value as a valid filehandle.

Basically, there are two ways to fix this:

  - Use (guestfd - 1) as the index of guestfs_arrary. We need to insert
    increment/decrement to convert the guestfd and the array index back
    and forth.

  - Keep using guestfd as the index of guestfs_array. The first entry
    of guestfs_array is left unused.

I thought the latter is simpler. We end up with wasting a small piece
of memory for the unused first entry of guestfd_array, but this is
probably not a big deal.

own file descriptors")
