Some refactors around struct global_block, all in one patch because they
all tie in together and are relatively trivial.
- Make block::global_block() and blockvector::global_block() return
`global_block *`, instead of `block *`. There is no cost in doing
so, and it's a bit more precise. Callers of these methods that need
a `global_block *` won't need to cast themselves.
- Add some block::as_global_block methods, as a way to get a
`global_block *` from a `block *` when you know it's a global block.
This is basically a static cast with an assert.
- Move set_compunit_symtab to global_block, since it requires the
block to be a global block anyway. Rename to just `set_compunit` (I
think that compunit_symtab should just be renamed compunit...).
- Move the get_block_compunit_symtab free function to be a method of
global_block.
- Make global_block::compunit_symtab private and rename.
- Simplify initialize_block_iterator.

This commit adds a mechanism for GDB to detect the linetable opcode
DW_LNS_set_epilogue_begin. This opcode is set by compilers to indicate
that a certain instruction marks the point where the frame is destroyed.
While the standard allows for multiple points marked with epilogue_begin
in the same function, for performance reasons, the function that
searches for the epilogue address will only find the last address that
sets this flag for a given block.
This commit also changes amd64_stack_frame_destroyed_p_1 to attempt to
use the epilogue begin directly, and only if an epilogue can't be found
will it attempt heuristics based on the current instruction.
Finally, this commit also changes the dwarf assembler to be able to emit
epilogue-begin instructions, to make it easier to test this patch

Since GDB now requires C++17, we don't need the internally maintained
gdb::optional implementation. This patch does the following replacing:
- gdb::optional -> std::optional
- gdb::in_place -> std::in_place
- #include "gdbsupport/gdb_optional.h" -> #include <optional>
This change has mostly been done automatically. One exception is
gdbsupport/thread-pool.* which did not use the gdb:: prefix as it
already lives in the gdb namespace.

After finding this code in buildsym_compunit::finish_block_internal:
...
ftype->set_fields
((struct field *)
TYPE_ALLOC (ftype, nparams * sizeof (struct field)));
...
and fixing PR30810 by using TYPE_ZALLOC, I wondered if there were more
locations that needed fixing.
I decided to make things easier to spot by factoring out a new function
alloc_fields:
...
/* Allocate the fields array of this type, with NFIELDS elements. If INIT,
zero-initialize the allocated memory. */
void
type::alloc_fields (unsigned int nfields, bool init = true);
...
where:
- a regular use would be "alloc_fields (nfields)", and
- an exceptional use that needed no initialization would be
"alloc_fields (nfields, false)".
Pretty soon I discovered that most of the latter cases are due to
initialization by memcpy, so I added two variants of copy_fields as well.
After this rewrite there are 8 uses of set_fields left:
...
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/coffread.c: type->set_fields (nullptr);
gdb/eval.c: type->set_fields
gdb/gdbtypes.c: type->set_fields (args);
gdb/gdbtypes.c: t->set_fields (XRESIZEVEC (struct field, t->fields (),
gdb/dwarf2/read.c: type->set_fields (new_fields);
gdb/dwarf2/read.c: sub_type->set_fields (sub_type->fields () + 1);
...
These fall into the following categories:
- set to nullptr (coffread.c),
- type not owned by objfile or gdbarch (eval.c), and
- modifying an existing fields array, like adding an element at the end or
dropping an element at the start (the rest).
Tested on x86_64-linux.

PR symtab/30810
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30810
Simon pointed out a line table regression, and after a couple of false
starts, I was able to reproduce it by hand using his instructions.
The bug is that most of the code in do_mixed_source_and_assembly uses
unrelocated addresses, but one spot does:
pc = low;
... after the text offset has been removed.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing a new type to represent
unrelocated addresses in the line table. This prevents this sort of
bug to some degree (it's still possible to manipulate a CORE_ADDR in a
bad way, this is unavoidable).
However, this did let the compiler flag a few spots in that function,
and now it's not possible to compare an unrelocated address from a
line table with an ordinary CORE_ADDR.
Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 36, though note this setup never
reproduced the bug in the first place. I also tested it by hand on
the disasm-optim test program.
Linetables no longer change after they are created. This patch
applies const to them.
Note there is one hack to cast away const in mdebugread.c. This code
allocates a linetable using 'malloc', then later copies it to the
obstack. While this could be cleaned up, I chose not to do so because
I have no way of testing it.

This changes linetables to not add the text offset to the addresses
they contain. I did this in a few steps, necessarily combined
together in one patch: I renamed the 'pc' member to 'm_pc', added the
appropriate accessors, and then recompiled. Then I fixed all the
errors. Where possible I generally chose to use the raw_pc accessor,
as it is less expensive.
Note that this patch discounts the possibility that the text section
offset might cause wraparound in the addresses in the line table.
However, this was already discounted -- in particular,
objfile_relocate1 did not re-sort the table in this scenario. (There
was a bug open about this, but as far as I can tell this has never
happened, it's not even clear what inspired that bug.)

This converts block_scope, block_set_scope, block_using, and
block_set_using to be methods. These are all done at once to make it
easier to also convert block_initialize_namespace at the same time.
This was mostly written by script.
When a symbol's block is set, the block has the runtime section offset
applied. So, it seems to me that the symbol implicitly is in the same
section as the block. Therefore, this patch sets the symbol's section
index at this same spot.
The previous patch hard-coded SECT_OFF_TEXT into the buildsym code.
After this, it's clear that there is only one caller of
compunit_symtab::set_block_line_section, and it always passes
SECT_OFF_TEXT. So, remove compunit_symtab::m_block_line_section and
use SECT_OFF_TEXT instead.
This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
The bit of code removed by this patch was introduced to fix the same
kind of problem that the previous patch fixes. That is, to try to match
existing subfiles when different name forms are used to refer to a same
file.
The thread for the patch that introduced this code is:
https://pi.simark.ca/gdb-patches/45F8CBDF.9090501@hq.tensilica.com/
The important bits are that the compiler produced a compilation unit
with:
DW_AT_name : test.c
DW_AT_comp_dir : /home/maxim/W/BadgerPass/PR_14999
and DWARF v2 line table with:
The Directory Table:
/home/maxim/W/BadgerPass/PR_14999
The File Name Table:
Entry Dir Time Size Name
1 1 1173897037 152 test.c
Because the main symtab was created with only DW_AT_name, it was named
"test.c". And because the path built from the line header contained the
"directory" part, it was "/home/maxim/W/BadgerPass/PR_14999/test.c".
Because of this mismatch, thing didn't work, so they added this code to
prepend the compilation directory to the existing subfile names, so that
this specific case would work.
With the changes done earlier in this series, where subfiles are
identified using the "most complete path possible", this case would be
handled. The main subfile's would be
"/home/maxim/W/BadgerPass/PR_14999/test.c" from the start
(DW_AT_comp_dir + DW_AT_name). It's not so different from some DWARF 5
cases actually, which make the compilation directory explicit in the
line table header.
I therefore think that this code is no longer needed. It does feel like
a quick hack to make one specific case work, and we have a more general
solution now. Also, this code was introduced to work around a problem
in the DWARF debug info or the DWARF debug info reader. In general, I
think it's preferable for these hacks to be located in the specific
debug info reader code, rather than in the common code.
Even though this code was added to work around a DWARF reader problem,
it's possible that some other debug info reader has started taking
advantage of this code in the mean time. It's very difficult to
know or verify, but I think the likelyhood is quite small, so I'm
proposing to get rid of it to simplify things a little bit.

Printing macros defined in the main source file doesn't work reliably
using various toolchains, especially when DWARF 5 is used. For example,
using the binaries produced by either of these commands:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 11.2.0
$ ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.38
$ gcc test.c -g3 -gdwarf-5
$ clang --version
clang version 13.0.1
$ clang test.c -gdwarf-5 -fdebug-macro
I get:
$ ./gdb -nx -q --data-directory=data-directory a.out
(gdb) start
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x111d: file test.c, line 6.
Starting program: /home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb/a.out
Temporary breakpoint 1, main () at test.c:6
6 return ZERO;
(gdb) p ZERO
No symbol "ZERO" in current context.
When starting to investigate this (taking the gcc-compiled binary as an
example), we see that GDB fails to look up the appropriate macro scope
when evaluating the expression. While stopped in
macro_lookup_inclusion:
(top-gdb) p name
$1 = 0x62100011a980 "test.c"
(top-gdb) p source.filename
$2 = 0x62100011a9a0 "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb/test.c"
`source` is the macro_source_file that we would expect GDB to find.
`name` comes from the symtab::filename field of the symtab we are
stopped in. GDB doesn't find the appropriate macro_source_file because
the name of the macro_source_file doesn't match exactly the name of the
symtab.
The name of the main symtab comes from the compilation unit's
DW_AT_name, passed to the buildsym_compunit's constructor:
4815d6125e/gdb/dwarf2/read.c (L10627-10630)
The contents of DW_AT_name, in this case, is "test.c". It is typically
(what I witnessed all compilers do) the same string that was passed to
the compiler on the command-line.
The name of the macro_source_file comes from the line number program
header's file table, from the call to the line_header::file_file_name
method:
4815d6125e/gdb/dwarf2/macro.c (L54-65)
line_header::file_file_name prepends the directory path that the file
entry refers to, in the file table (if the file name is not already
absolute). In this case, the file name is "test.c", appended to the
directory "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb".
Because the symtab's name is not created the same way as the
macro_source_file's name is created, we get this mismatch. GDB fails to
find the appropriate macro scope for the symtab, and we can't print
macros when stopped in that symtab.
To make this work, we must ensure that paths produced in these two ways
end up identical. This can be tricky because of the different ways a
path can be passed to the compiler by the user.
Another thing to consider is that while the main symtab's name (or
subfile, before it becomes a symtab) is created using DW_AT_name, the
main symtab is also referred to using its entry in the line table
header's file table, when processing the line table. We must therefore
ensure that the same name is produced in both cases, so that a call to
"start_subfile" for the main subfile will correctly find the
already-created subfile, created by buildsym_compunit's constructor. If
we fail to do that, things still often work, because of a fallback: the
watch_main_source_file_lossage method. This method determines that if
the main subfile has no symbols but there exists another subfile with
the same basename (e.g. "test.c") that does have symbols, it's probably
because there was some filename mismatch. So it replaces the main
subfile with that other subfile. I think that heuristic is useful as a
last effort to work around any bug or bad debug info, but I don't think
we should design things such as to rely on it. It's a heuristic, it can
get things wrong. So in my search for a fix, it is important that given
some good debug info, we don't end up relying on that for things to
work.
A first attempt at fixing this was to try to prepend the compilation
directory here or not prepend it there. In practice, because of all the
possible combinations of debug info the compilers produce, it was not
possible to get something that would produce reliable, consistent paths.
Another attempt at fixing this was to make both macro_source_file
objects and symtab objects use the most complete form of path possible.
That means to prepend directories at least until we get an absolute
path. In theory, we should end up with the same path in all cases.
This generally worked, but because it changed the symtab names, it
resulted in user-visible changes (for example, paths to source files in
Breakpoint hit messages becoming always absolute). I didn't find this
very good, first because there is a "set filename-display" setting that
lets the user control how they want the paths to be displayed, and that
would suddenly make this setting completely ineffective (although even
today, it is a bit dependent on the debug info). Second, it would
require a good amount of testsuite tweaks to make tests accept these
suddenly absolute paths.
This new patch is a slight variation of that: it adds a new field called
"filename_for_id" in struct symtab and struct subfile, next to the
existing filename field. The goal is to separate the internal ids used
for finding objects from the names used for presentation. This field is
used for identifying subfiles, symtabs and macro_source_files
internally. For DWARF symtabs, this new field is meant to contain the
"most complete possible" path, as discussed above. So for a given file,
it must always be in the same form, everywhere. The existing
symtab::filename field remains the one used for printing to the user, so
there shouldn't be any change in how paths are printed.
Changes in the core symtab files are:
- Add "name_for_id" and "filename_for_id" fields to "struct subfile"
and "struct symtab", next to existing "name" and "filename" fields.
- Make buildsym_compunit::buildsym_compunit and
buildsym_compunit::start_subfile accept a "name_for_id" parameter
next to the existing "name" ones.
- Make buildsym_compunit::start_subfile use "name_for_id" for looking
up existing subfiles. This is the key thing for making calls
to start_subfile for the main source file look up the existing
subfile successfully, and avoid relying on
watch_main_source_file_lossage.
- Make sal_macro_scope pass "filename_for_id", rather than "filename",
to macro_lookup_inclusion. This is the key thing to making the
lookup work and macro printing work.
Changes in the DWARF files are:
- Make line_header::file_file_name return the "most complete possible"
name. The only pre-existing user of this method is the macro code,
to give the macro_source_file objects their name. And we now want
them to have this "most complete possible" name, which will match the
corresponding symtab's "filename_for_id".
- Make dwarf2_cu::start_compunit_symtab pass the "most complete
possible" name for the main symtab's "filename_for_id". In this
context, where the info comes from the compilation unit's DW_AT_name
/ DW_AT_comp_dir, it means prepending DW_AT_comp_dir to DW_AT_name if
DW_AT_name is not already absolute.
- Change dwarf2_start_subfile to build a name_for_id for the subfile
being started. The simplest way is to re-use
line_header::file_file_name, since the callers always have a
file_entry handy. This ensures that it will get the exact same path
representation as the macro code does, for the same file (since it
also uses line_header::file_file_name).
- Update calls to allocate_symtab to pass the "name_for_id" from the
subfile.
Tests exercising all this are added by the following patch.
Of all the cases I tried, the only one I found that ends up relying on
watch_main_source_file_lossage is the following one:
$ clang --version

[symtab-create] watch_main_source_file_lossage: using subfile ./test.c as the main subfile
As we can see, there are two forms used for "test.c", one with a "." and
one without. This comes from the fact that the compilation unit DIE
contains:
DW_AT_name ("test.c")
DW_AT_comp_dir ("/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb")
without a ".", and the line table for that file contains:
include_directories[ 1] = "."
file_names[ 1]:
name: "test.c"
dir_index: 1
When assembling the filename from that entry, we get a ".".
It is a bit unexpected that the main filename resulting from the line
table header does not match exactly the name in the compilation unit.
For instance, gcc uses "./test.c" for the DW_AT_name, which gives
identical paths in the compilation unit and in the line table header.
Similarly, with DWARF 5:
$ clang ./test.c -g3 -O0 -gdwarf-5
clang create two entries that refer to the same file but are of in a different
form.
include_directories[ 0] = "/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb"
include_directories[ 1] = "."
file_names[ 0]:
name: "test.c"
dir_index: 0
file_names[ 1]:
name: "test.c"
dir_index: 1
The first file name produces a path without a "." while the second does.
This is not caught by watch_main_source_file_lossage, because of
dwarf_decode_lines that creates a symtab for each file entry in the line
table. It therefore appears as "non-empty" to
watch_main_source_file_lossage. This results in two symtabs:
(gdb) maintenance info symtabs
{ objfile /home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb/a.out ((struct objfile *) 0x613000005d00)
{ ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x62100011aca0)
debugformat DWARF 5
producer clang version 13.0.1

linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x0)
}
{ symtab ./test.c ((struct symtab *) 0x62100011ad60)
fullname (null)
linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x621000129ef0)
}
}
}
I am not sure what is the consequence of this, but this is also what
happens before my patch, so I think its acceptable to leave it as-is.
To handle these two cases nicely, I think we will need a function that
removes the unnecessary "." from path names, something that can be done
later.
Finally, I made a change in find_file_and_directory is necessary to
avoid breaking test
gdb.dwarf2/dw2-compdir-oldgcc.exp: info source gcc42
Without that change, we would get:
(gdb) info source
Current source file is /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
Compilation directory is /dir/d
whereas the expected result is:
(gdb) info source
Current source file is dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
Compilation directory is /dir/d
This test was added here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2012-November/098144.html
Long story short, GCC <= 4.2 apparently had a bug where it would
generate a DW_AT_name with a full path ("/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S")
and no DW_AT_comp_dir. The line table has one entry with filename
"dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", which refers to directory 0. Directory 0
normally refers to the compilation unit's comp dir, but it is
non-existent in this case.
This caused some symtab lookup problems, and to work around them, some
workaround was added, which today reads as:
if (res.get_comp_dir () == nullptr
&& producer_is_gcc_lt_4_3 (cu)
&& res.get_name () != nullptr
&& IS_ABSOLUTE_PATH (res.get_name ()))
res.set_comp_dir (ldirname (res.get_name ()));
Source: 6577f365eb/gdb/dwarf2/read.c (L9428-9432)
It extracts an artificial DW_AT_comp_dir from DW_AT_name, if there is no
DW_AT_comp_dir and DW_AT_name is absolute.
Prior to my patch, a subfile would get created with filename
"/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", from DW_AT_name, and another would get
created with filename "dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S" from the line table's
file table. Then watch_main_source_file_lossage would kick in and merge
them, keeping only the "dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S" one:
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: found existing symtab with name dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S (dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S)
[symtab-create] watch_main_source_file_lossage: using subfile dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S as the main subfile
And so "info source" would show "dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S" as the
filename.
With my patch applied, but without the change in
find_file_and_directory, both DW_AT_name and the line table would try to
start a subfile with the same filename_for_id, and there was no need for
watch_main_source_file_lossage - which is what we want:
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S, name_for_id = /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S, name_for_id = /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: found existing symtab with name_for_id /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S (/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S)
[symtab-create] start_subfile: name = dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S, name_for_id = /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S
[symtab-create] start_subfile: found existing symtab with name_for_id /dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S (/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S)
But since the one with name == "/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", coming
from DW_AT_name, gets created first, it wins, and the symtab ends up
with "/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S" as the name, "info source" shows
"/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S" and the test breaks.
This is not wrong per-se, after all DW_AT_name is
"/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", so it wouldn't be wrong to report the
current source file as "/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S". If you compile
a file passing "/an/absolute/path.c", DW_AT_name typically contains (at
least with GCC) "/an/absolute/path.c" and GDB tells you that the source
file is "/an/absolute/path.c". But we can also keep the existing
behavior fairly easily with a little change in find_file_and_directory.
When extracting an artificial DW_AT_comp_dir from DW_AT_name, we now
modify the name to just keep the file part. The result is coherent with
what compilers do when you compile a file by just passing its filename
("gcc path.c -g"):
DW_AT_name ("path.c")
DW_AT_comp_dir ("/home/simark/build/binutils-gdb-one-target/gdb")
With this change, filename_for_id is still the full name,
"/dir/d/dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", but the filename of the subfile /
symtab (what ends up shown by "info source") is just
"dw2-compdir-oldgcc42.S", and that makes the test happy.

Mutable addrmaps currently require an obstack. This was probably done
to avoid having to call splay_tree_delete, but examination of the code
shows that all mutable obstacks have a limited lifetime -- now it's
simple to treat them as ordinary C++ objects, in some cases
stack-allocating them, and have a destructor to make the needed call.
This patch implements this change.
Replace with calls to blockvector::blocks, and the appropriate method
call on the returned array_view.

In this review [1], Eli pointed out that we should be careful when
concatenating file names to avoid duplicated slashes. On Windows, a
double slash at the beginning of a file path has a special meaning. So
naively concatenating "/" and "foo/bar" would give "//foo/bar", which
would not give the desired results. We already have a few spots doing:
if (first_path ends with a slash)
path = first_path + second_path
else
path = first_path + slash + second_path
In general, I think it's nice to avoid superfluous slashes in file
paths, since they might end up visible to the user and look a bit
unprofessional.
Introduce the path_join function that can be used to join multiple path
components together (along with unit tests).
I initially wanted to make it possible to join two absolute paths, to
support the use case of prepending a sysroot path to a target file path,
or the prepending the debug-file-directory to a target file path. But
the code in solib_find_1 shows that it is more complex than this anyway
(for example, when the right hand side is a Windows path with a drive
letter). So I don't think we need to support that case in path_join.
That also keeps the implementation simpler.
Change a few spots to use path_join to show how it can be used. I
believe that all the spots I changed are guarded by some checks that
ensure the right hand side operand is not an absolute path.
Regression-tested on Ubuntu 18.04. Built-tested on Windows, and I also
ran the new unit-test there.

Change this field to an std::vector to facilitate memory management.
Since the linetable_entry array is copied into the symtab resulting from
the subfile, it is possible to change it without changing how symtab
stores the linetable entries (which would be a much larger change).
There is a small change in buildsym_compunit::record_line to avoid
accessing a now invalid linetable_entry. Before this patch, we keep a
pointer to the last linetable entry, pop it from the vector, and then
read last->line. It works with the manually-maintained array, but since
we now use std::vector::pop_back, I am afraid that it could be flagged
as an invalid access by the various static / dynamic analysis tools to
access the linetable_entry object after popping it from the vector.
Instead, record just the line number in an optional and use it.
There are substantial changes in xcoffread.c that simplify the code, but
I can't test them. I was hesitant to do this change because of that,
but I decided to send it anyway. I don't think that an almost dead
platform should hold back improving the code in the common parts of GDB.
The changes in xcoffread.c are:
- Make arrange_linetable "arrange" the linetable passed as a parameter,
instead of returning possibly a new one, possibly the same one.
- In the "Process main file's line numbers.", I'm not too sure what
happens. We get the lintable from "main_subfile", "arrange" it, but
then assign the result to the current subfile, obtained with
get_current_subfile. I assume that the current subfile is also the
main one, so now I just call arrange_linetable on the main subfile's
line table.
- Remove that weird "Useless if!!!" FIXME comment. It's been there
forever, but the "if" is still there, so I guess the "if" can stay
there.

Change subfile::name to be a string, for easier memory management.
Change buildsym_compunit::m_comp_dir as well, since we move one in to
the other at some point in patch_subfile_names, so it's easier to do
both at the same time. There are various NULL checks for both fields
currently, replace them with empty checks, I think it ends up
equivalent.
I can't test the change in xcoffread.c, it's best-effort.

Allocate struct subfile with new, initialize its fields instead of
memset-ing it to 0. Use a unique_ptr for the window after a subfile has
been allocated but before it is linked in the buildsym_compunit's list
of subfile (and therefore owned by the buildsym_compunit.
I can't test the change in xcoffread.c, it's best-effort. I couldn't
find where subfiles are freed in that file, I assume they were
intentionally (or not) leaked.

Add support for DW_LNS_set_prologue_end when building line-tables. This
attribute can be set by the compiler to indicate that an instruction is
an adequate place to set a breakpoint just after the prologue of a
function.
The compiler might set multiple prologue_end, but considering how
current skip_prologue_using_sal works, this commit modifies it to accept
the first instruction with this marker (if any) to be the place where a
breakpoint should be placed to be at the end of the prologue.
The need for this support came from a problematic usecase generated by
hipcc (i.e. clang). The problem is as follows: There's a function
(lets call it foo) which covers PC from 0xa800 to 0xa950. The body of
foo begins with a call to an inlined function, covering from 0xa800 to
0xa94c. The issue is that when placing a breakpoint at 'foo', GDB
inserts the breakpoint at 0xa818. The 0x18 offset is what GDB thinks is
foo's first address past the prologue.
Later, when hitting the breakpoint, GDB reports the stop within the
inlined function because the PC falls in its range while the user
expects to stop in FOO.
Looking at the line-table for this location, we have:
INDEX LINE ADDRESS IS-STMT
[...]
14 293 0x000000000000a66c Y
15 END 0x000000000000a6e0 Y
16 287 0x000000000000a800 Y
17 END 0x000000000000a818 Y
18 287 0x000000000000a824 Y
[...]
For comparison, let's look at llvm-dwarfdump's output for this CU:
Address Line Column File ISA Discriminator Flags
------------------ ------ ------ ------ --- ------------- -------------
[...]
0x000000000000a66c 293 12 2 0 0 is_stmt

The main difference we are interested in here is that llvm-dwarfdump's
output tells us that 0xa800 is an adequate place to place a breakpoint
past a function prologue. Since we know that foo covers from 0xa800 to
0xa94c, 0xa800 is the address at which the breakpoint should be placed
if the user wants to break in foo.
This commit proposes to add support for the prologue_end flag in the
line-program processing.
The processing of this prologue_end flag is made in skip_prologue_sal,
before it calls gdbarch_skip_prologue_noexcept. The intent is that if
the compiler gave information on where the prologue ends, we should use
this information and not try to rely on architecture dependent logic to
guess it.
The testsuite have been executed using this patch on GNU/Linux x86_64.
Testcases have been compiled with both gcc/g++ (verison 9.4.0) and
clang/clang++ (version 10.0.0) since at the time of writing GCC does not
set the prologue_end marker. Tests done with GCC 11.2.0 (not over the
entire testsuite) show that it does not emit this flag either.
No regression have been observed with GCC or Clang. Note that when
using Clang, this patch fixes a failure in
gdb.opt/inline-small-func.exp.

Currently when recording a line entry (with
buildsym_compunit::record_line), a boolean argument argument is used to
indicate that the is_stmt flag should be set for this particular record.
As a later commit will add support for new flags, instead of adding a
parameter to record_line for each possible flag, transform the current
is_stmt parameter into a enum flag. This flags parameter will allow
greater flexibility in future commits.
This enum flags type is not propagated into the linetable_entry type as
this would require a lot of changes across the codebase for no practical
gain (it currently uses a bitfield where each interesting flag only
occupy 1 bit in the structure).
Tested on x86_64-linux, no regression observed.

It's a bit confusing because we have both "compunit_symtab" and "symtab"
types, and many methods and functions containing "start_symtab" or
"end_symtab", which actually deal with compunit_symtabs. I believe this
comes from the time before compunit_symtab was introduced, where
symtab did the job of both.
Rename everything I found containing start_symtab or end_symtab to use
start_compunit_symtab or end_compunit_symtab.
