I noticed that value_of_register (used for getting values _of_
registers ($pc, $rax, etc.), rather than variables _in_ registers),
kind of builds a franken-value, by propagating the lval and address of
the frame register value, but not the entire location, like necessary
for lval_computed (if some unwinder ever returns that, the resulting
value will misbehave). This gets in the way of printing optimized out
(not saved) lval_registers differently from other optimized out
values, as it doesn't make sure the resulting value is lval_register.
I started out by just doing something like:
- VALUE_LVAL (reg_val) = lval;
- set_value_address (reg_val, addr);
+ VALUE_LVAL (reg_val) = lval_register;
... just like value_of_register_lazy below. That's sufficient to fix
the issue.
Then I noticed this is using frame_register, which we should avoid
nowadays, for it returns elements of a value, but not all that's
sometimes necessary (unavailable-ness is all or nothing with it, for
instance), and considered using get_frame_register_value instead
(which returns a struct value), and value_contents_copy, just like
value_fetch_lazy's handling of lval_register. But at that point, I
realized we might as well just defer all that work to
value_of_register_lazy/value_fetch_lazy...
Doing it this way adds a frame_find_by_id lookup (from within
value_fetch_lazy), while we already have a frame pointer handy in
value_of_register. I considered factoring out the lazy register
fetching out of value_fetch_lazy, into a function that takes a frame
pointer and call that instead, avoiding the lookup, but then it looked
like too much complication for an early optimization, and went back to
keeping it simple.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

* findvar.c (value_of_register): Rework in terms of
value_of_register_lazy.
I came across a pattern used to construct a value in the following way:
struct value *val = allocate_value_lazy (type);
VALUE_LVAL (val) = lval_memory;
set_value_address (val, address);
Instead we fold the above call into:
value_at_lazy (type, addr);

This patch introduces the "iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order"
gdbarch method, as well as its default implementation, and converts
the areas where it will matter to using this gdbarch method.
The default method implementation is the only one installed, and
the changes should have no functional impact in terms of behavior.
This only paves the way for the architectures that will need their
own version.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gdbarch.sh: Add generation of
"iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order_cb_ftype" typedef in
gdbarch.h. Add include of "objfiles.h" in gdbarch.c.
(iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order): New gdbarch method.
* gdbarch.h, gdbarch.c: Regenerate.
* objfiles.h (default_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order):
Add declaration.
* objfiles.c (default_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order):
New function.
* symtab.c (lookup_symbol_aux_objfile): New function, extracted
out of lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs.
(lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs): Replace extracted-out code by
call to lookup_symbol_aux_objfile.
(struct global_sym_lookup_data): New type.
(lookup_symbol_global_iterator_cb): New function.
(lookup_symbol_global): Search for symbol using
gdbarch_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order and
lookup_symbol_global_iterator_cb.
* findvar.c (struct minsym_lookup_data): New type.
(minsym_lookup_iterator_cb): New function.
(default_read_var_value) [case LOC_UNRESOLVED]: Resolve the
symbol's address via gdbarch_iterate_over_objfiles_in_search_order
and minsym_lookup_iterator_cb.
The search order used in this patch breaks global symbol lookups
for certain symbols when copy-relocation is used. A slightly different
search order will be implemented later.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Revert the following patch:
* findvar.c (default_read_var_value): For LOC_UNRESOLVED symbols,
try locating the symbol in the symbol's own objfile first, before
extending the search to all objfiles.
* symtab.c (lookup_symbol_aux_objfile): New function, extracted
out of lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs.
(lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs): Add new parameter "exclude_objfile".
Replace extracted-out code by call to lookup_symbol_aux_objfile.
Do not search EXCLUDE_OBJFILE.
(lookup_static_symbol_aux): Update call to lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs.
(lookup_symbol_global): Search for matches in the block's objfile
first, before searching all other objfiles.

The purpose of this patch is to better support renamings in the
"info locals" command. Consider ...
procedure Foo is
GV : Integer renames Pck.Global_Variable;
begin
Increment (GV); -- STOP
end Foo;
... Pck.Global_Variable is just an integer. After having stopped at
the "STOP" line, "info locals" yields:
(gdb) info locals
gv = <error reading variable gv (Cannot access memory at address 0xffffffffffffffff)>
In reality, two things are happening:
(1) Variable "GV" does not exist, which is normal, since there is
"GV" the renaming of another variable;
(2) But to allow the user access to that renaming the same way
the code has, the compiler produces an artificial variable
whose name encodes the renaming:
gv___XR_pck__global_variable___XE
For practical reasons, the artificial variable itself is given
irrelevant types and addresses.
But the "info locals" command does not act as if it was a short-cut
of "foreach VAR in locals, print VAR". Instead it gets the value of
each VAR directly, which does not work in this case, since the variable
is artificial and needs to be decoded first.
This patch makes the "read_var_value" routine language-specific.
The old implementation of "read_var_value" gets renamed to
"default_read_var_value" and all languages now use it (unchanged
behavior), except for Ada. In Ada, the new function ada_read_var_value
checks if we have a renaming, and if so, evaluates its value, or else
defers to default_read_var_value.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* language.h (struct language_defn): New "method" la_read_var_value.
* findvar.c: #include "language.h".
(default_read_var_value): Renames read_var_value. Rewrite
function description.

language_defn structures to add entry for new la_read_var_value
field.
The read_frame_register_value function as it was implemented introduced
a regression on big-endian targets. The problem appears when trying to
get the value of an entity stored inside a register, and when the size
of the entity is smaller than the size of the register. In that case,
we were always reading the first N bytes of the register, which is wrong
for big-endian architectures, where we need to read the last N bytes of
the register.

register on big-endian architectures.
