functions which handle overwriting of forward-referenced types
for stabs file reading.
(lookup_{reference,pointer,function}_type): These just call
the make_*_type functions with a null storage alloc parameter.
* gdbtypes.h (make_{reference,pointer,function}_type): Declare.
* xcoffread.c (smash_to_pointer_type): Remove, no longer used.
* buildsym.c (dbx_lookup_type): Zero result for (-1,-1) arg.
(dbx_alloc_type): Make it easier to understand. No funct change.
(define_symbol: 't'): Don't put the typedef name into the name of
the struct, union, or enum. Bugfix.
(read_type: '*', '&', 'f'): Add comments. Use make_XXX_type
routines to properly handle overwriting preallocated types so that
forward references will work.
(read_enum_type): Force enum values to file scope, due to bug in
Sun compiler output. FIXME, fix later.
Remove unused header_file_prev_index mechanism. It was already
obsolete in gdb-3.5. These comments appeared in 3.5:
/* This code was used before I knew about the instance codes.
My first hypothesis is that it is not necessary now
that instance codes are handled. */
* dbxread.c (add_new_header_file): Remove header_file_prev_index.
* buildsym.h: Remove it and prev_index that saves it.
* buildsym.c (push_subfile, pop_subfile, start_symtab): Remove it.
* solib.c (special_symbol_handling): When called from core files,
must set up debug_addr. Don't print error messages, just return.
* symmisc.c (print_symbol): Less ascii diarrhea for enums, please.
abbreviated type name is messed up. Reported by Joe Buck.
FIXME, we need to determine whether GDB or GCC needs to be
smarter to correctly locate this type name. p*927 circumvention,
needs real fix when Tiemann's back.
basis. See comments in objfiles.h and details in ChangeLog. Also remove
redundant definitions of FRAME_CHAIN_VALID from most of the tm-* files and
use a default definition in frame.h.
* All GDB files that #include defs.h: Removed stdio.h.
(defs.h): #include stdio.h.
This has been tested by building GDBs for all targets hosted on Sun4.
None of the build problems were related to stdio.h inclusion. (n.b.
many configurations don't build for other reasons.)
Made some more progress in removing duplicate assembly opcode files.
More improvements to how mipsread and to a lesser extent dbxread work.
See the ChangeLog for details.
stub methods. These changes are not complete in that a better
implementation will be more maintainable, but they make it possible to
debug groff with GDB.
* utils.c: All the v*fprintf emulation is now in libiberty,
so we can get rid of some junk.
* xm-sun3os4.h, xm-sun4os4.h, xconfig/decstation, xconfig/i386sco,
xconfig/sun3os4, xconfig/sun4os4: Don`t need HAVE_STRSTR any more.
* m68k-pinsn.c (print_insn_arg): Support BB/BW/BL
type operands, as used by branch instructions.
* gmalloc.c: Fix prototype of memcpy.
* elfread.c: Comment out register_addr, since it conflicts
with the one in coredep.c.
* buildsym.h: Remove extern declarations of two functions
that are really static in buildsym.c.
* tm-mips.h: Add symbolic names for more registers.
* mips-xdep.c (store_inferior_registers): Use new register names.
* xm-mips.h: Simplify REGISTER_U_ADDR, since it is now
only used for core files, not ptrace. Therefore,
the KERNEL_U_ADDR hack is no longer needed.
The mapping to ptrace number is now in in mips-xdep.c.
* mips-xdep.c: Define REGISTER_PTRACE_ADDR (using the
mapping from the old REGISTER_U_ADDR), and use it
in {fetch,store}_inferior_registers.
* mipsread.c: Rename #include ecoff.h to new name coff-mips.h.
* mips-tdep.c (mips_push_dummy_frame, mips_pop_frame):
Save/restore FP regs correctly (?).
* dbxread.c: Remove duplicate define_symbol and type_synonym_name
(these had been previously moved to buildsym.c).
Hence, define_symbol becomes extern instead of static.
* buildsym.c (read_struct_type): Comment out bogus handling
of C++ operator methods. Minor hacking of reading of class
contexts. Make define_symbol non-static, so dbxread.c can call it.
(record_line): Record directly in a subfile. Alloc on demand.
(compare_line_numbers): Add from xcoffread.c.
(end_symtab): New params say whether to sort pendings and
linetable. Patch block stabs if defined. Shrink linetable before
allocating the symtab.
* buildsym.h: Delete line_vector* and prev_line_number. Add
global_stabs and file_stabs for xcoffread.
* dbxread.c (start_subfile): Move to buildsym. Change above calls.
* symtab.h: LINETABLE(symtab) can now be null. Zap LINELIST.
* symmisc.c, symtab.c: Cope with null LINETABLEs.
