I noticed that one field in elfread.c:struct elfinfo is unused.
This patch removes it.
* elfread.c (struct elfinfo) <stabindexsect>: Remove.
(elf_locate_sections): Update.
This patch fixes gdb PR symtab/15597.
The bug is that the .gnu_debugaltlink section includes the build-id of
the alt file, but gdb does not use it.
This patch fixes the problem by changing gdb to do what it ought to
always have done: verify the build id of the file found using the
filename in .gnu_debugaltlink; and if that does not match, try to find
the correct debug file using the build-id and debug-file-directory.
This patch touches BFD. Previously, gdb had its own code for parsing
.gnu_debugaltlink; I changed it to use the BFD functions after those
were introduced. However, the BFD functions are incorrect -- they
assume that .gnu_debugaltlink is formatted like .gnu_debuglink.
However, it it is not. Instead, it consists of a file name followed
by the build-id -- no alignment, and the build-id is not a CRC.
Fixing this properly is a bit of a pain. But, because
separate_alt_debug_file_exists just has a FIXME for the build-id case,
I did not fix it properly. Instead I introduced a hack. This leaves
BFD working just as well as it did before my patch.
I'm willing to do something better here but I could use some guidance
as to what. It seems that the build-id code in BFD is largely punted
on.
FWIW gdb is the only user of bfd_get_alt_debug_link_info outside of
BFD itself.
I moved the build-id logic out of elfread.c and into a new file.
This seemed cleanest to me.
Writing a test case was a bit of a pain. I added a couple new
features to the DWARF assembler to handle this.

This moves the "gdbarch" field from the objfile into the BFD.
This field's value is derived from the BFD and is immutable over the
lifetime of the BFD. This makes it a reasonable candidate for pushing
into the per-BFD object.
This is part of the long-term objfile splitting project. In the long
run I think this patch will make it simpler to moves types from the
objfile to the per-BFD object; but the patch makes sense as a minor
cleanup by itself.

Subject: [PATCH] Fix for PR c++/15203 and PR c++/15210
Date: Sat, 09 Mar 2013 02:50:49 -0300 (5 days, 4 hours, 57 minutes ago)
Message-ID: <m3a9qdnmti.fsf@redhat.com>
Hi,
This bug was reported internally at our Bugzilla, along with a proposed
fix. After talking to Keith about it, he investigated and came up with
another patch needed to really fix the issue on CVS HEAD.
The first part of the fix is the patch to cp-namespace.c. It handles
the case when we are accessing a static variable inside a function
(inside a class) by the full linespec (is it right, Keith?). E.g.:
class foo
{
public:
int bar()
{
static int var = 0;
}
};
And then, printing the value of `var':
(gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'
GDB would fall in an internal_error:
gdb/cp-namespace.c:816: internal-error: cp_lookup_nested_symbol called on a non-aggregate type.
This is because `cp_lookup_nested_symbol' is not handling the case when
TYPE_CODE is either _FUNC or _METHOD. This patch fixes it by returning
NULL in this case.
The second part of the fix is the patch to elfread.c. It is needed
because the BSF_GNU_UNIQUE flag was added to some symbols in
<http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2009-06/msg00016.html>. Because of
that, (still) the command:
(gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'
where `var' is a static variable returns:
"No symbol "foo::bar()::var" in current context."
So with the second patch applied the command finally DTRT:
(gdb) print 'foo::bar()::var'
$1 = 0
This may not be the ideal solution, according to Keith it would be good
to implement productions on c-exp.y in order to recognize
CLASS::FUNCTION::VARIABLE, but it is a solution which works with what we
have today.
I regtested it in Fedora 17 x86_64 with -m64 and -m32, including
gdbserver, without regressions.

Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
The build_address_symbolic funnction filters out data symbols if
their size is set to zero. But the problem is that the COFF symbol
table (for instance) does not provide any size information, leaving
the size to its default value of zero, thus always triggering
the filter.
This shows up when trying to print the address of a global variable
when debugging a Windows executable, for instance.

* symfile.c (find_separate_debug_file): New variables debugdir_vec,
back_to and ix. Use dirnames_to_char_ptr_vec. Remove variable
debugdir_end.
* utils.c (free_char_ptr_vec, do_free_char_ptr_vec)
(make_cleanup_free_char_ptr_vec, dirnames_to_char_ptr_vec_append)
(dirnames_to_char_ptr_vec): New functions.
Comment says it all:
/* On ia64-hpux, we have discovered that the system linker
adds undefined symbols with nonzero addresses that cannot
be right (their address points inside the code of another
function in the .text section). This creates problems
when trying to determine which symbol corresponds to
a given address.
We try to detect those buggy symbols by checking which
section we think they correspond to. Normally, PLT symbols
are stored inside their own section, and the typical name
for that section is ".plt". So, if there is a ".plt"
section, and yet the section name of our symbol does not
start with ".plt", we ignore that symbol. */
gdb/ChangeLog:
* elfread.c (elf_symtab_read): Ignore undefined symbols with
nonzero addresses if they do not correspond to a .plt section
when one is available in the objfile.
It turns out that this change is not correct, and it causes a crash
on sparc-solaris while trying to load ld.so. This is because the
memory is actually still referenced after elf_symtab_read completes.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* elfread.c (elf_symtab_read): Revert the previous change
that tried to stop a memory leak.
