FAIL: gdb.base/vla-ptr.exp: print td_vla
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-vla-c99.exp: evaluate complete vla
The first failure in this bunch occurs due to printing an incorrect
result for a variable length array:
print int_vla
$1 = {-1, -1, -1, -1, -1}
The result should actually be this:
$1 = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8}
When I started examining this bug, I found that printing an
individual array element worked correctly. E.g. "print int_vla[2]"
resulted in 4 being printed. I have not looked closely to see why
this is the case.
I found that evaluation of the location expression for int_vla was
causing problems. This is the relevant DWARF entry for int_vla:
<2><15a>: Abbrev Number: 10 (DW_TAG_variable)
<15b> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0xbf): int_vla
<15f> DW_AT_decl_file : 1
<160> DW_AT_decl_line : 35
<161> DW_AT_type : <0x393>
<165> DW_AT_location : 4 byte block: 86 7a 94 2 (DW_OP_breg22 (r22): -6; DW_OP_deref_size: 2)
I found that DW_OP_breg22 was providing a correct result.
DW_OP_deref_size was fetching the correct value from memory. However,
the value being fetched should be considered a pointer.
DW_OP_deref_size zero extends the fetched value prior to pushing
it onto the evaluation stack. (The DWARF-4 document specifies this
action; so GDB is faithfully implementing the DWARF-4 specification.)
However, zero extending the pointer is not sufficient for converting
that value to an address for rl78 and (perhaps) other architectures
which define a `pointer_to_address' method. (I suspect that m32c
would have the same problem.)
Ideally, we would perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. We don't, however, know the type of the object
that the address refers to in DW_OP_deref_size. I can't think
of a way to infer the type at that point in the code.
Before proceeding, I should note that there are two other DWARF
operations that could be used in place of DW_OP_deref_size. One of
these is DW_OP_GNU_deref_type. Current GDB implements this operation,
but as is obvious from the name, it is non-standard DWARF. The other
operation is DW_OP_xderef_size. Even though it's part of DWARF-2
through DWARF-4 specifications, it's not presently implemented in GDB.
Present day GCC does not output dwarf expressions containing this
operation either. [Of the two, I like DW_OP_GNU_deref_type better.
Using it avoids the need to specify an "address space identifier".
(GCC, GDB, and other non-free tools all need to agree on the meanings
of these identifiers.)]
Back to the bug analysis...
The closest consumer of the DW_OP_deref_size result is the
DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY case in dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full. At that
location, we do know the object type to which the address is intended
to refer. I added code to perform a pointer to address conversion at
this location. (See the patch.)
I do have some misgivings regarding this patch. As noted earlier, it
would really be better to perform the pointer to address conversion in
DW_OP_deref_size. I can't, however, think of a way to make this work.
Changing GCC to output one of the other aforementioned operations might
be preferable but, as noted earlier, these solutions have problems as
well. Long term, I think it'd be good to have something like
DW_OP_GNU_deref_type become part of the standard. If that can't or
won't happen, we'll need to implement DW_OP_xderef_size.
But until that happens, this patch will work for expressions in which
DW_OP_deref_size occurs last. It should even work for dereferences
followed by adding an offset. I don't think it'll work for more than
one dereference in the same expression.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc_full): Perform a pointer
to address conversion for DWARF_VALUE_MEMORY.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
