Fix TAB-completion + .gdb_index slowness (generalize filename_seen_cache) Tab completion when debugging a program binary that uses GDB index is surprisingly much slower than when GDB uses psymtabs instead. Around 1.5x/3x slower. That's surprising, because the whole point of GDB index is to speed things up... For example, with: set pagination off set $count = 0 while $count < 400 complete b string_prin # matches gdb's string_printf printf "count = %d\n", $count set $count = $count + 1 end $ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-with-index -ex "source script.cmd" real 0m11.042s user 0m10.920s sys 0m0.042s $ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-without-index -ex "source script.cmd" real 0m4.635s user 0m4.590s sys 0m0.037s Same but with: - complete b string_prin + complete b zzzzzz to exercise the no-matches worst case, master currently gets you something like: with index without index real 0m11.971s 0m8.413s user 0m11.912s 0m8.355s sys 0m0.035s 0m0.035s Running gdb under perf shows 80% spent inside maybe_add_partial_symtab_filename, and 20% spent in the lbasename inside that. The problem that tab completion walks over all compunit symtabs, and for each, walks the contained file symtabs. And there a huge number of file symtabs (each included system header, etc.) that appear in each compunit symtab's file symtab list. As in, when debugging GDB, I have 367381 symtabs iterated, when of those only 5371 filenames are unique... This was a regression from the earlier (nice) split of symtabs in compunit symtabs + file symtabs. The fix here is to add a cache of unique filenames per objfile so that the walk / uniquing is only done once. There's already a abstraction for this in symtab.c; this patch moves that code out to a separate file and C++ifies it bit. This makes the worst-case scenario above consistently drop to ~2.5s (1.5s for the "string_prin" hit case), making it over 3.3x times faster than psymtabs in this use case (7x in the "string_prin" hit case). gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-07-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (COMMON_OBS): Add filename-seen-cache.o. * dwarf2read.c: Include "filename-seen-cache.h". * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_per_objfile) <filenames_cache>: New field.

#include "defs.h"
Rename common to gdbsupport This is the next patch in the ongoing series to move gdbsever to the top level. This patch just renames the "common" directory. The idea is to do this move in two parts: first rename the directory (this patch), then move the directory to the top. This approach makes the patches a bit more tractable. I chose the name "gdbsupport" for the directory. However, as this patch was largely written by sed, we could pick a new name without too much difficulty. Tested by the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-07-09 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * contrib/ari/gdb_ari.sh: Change common to gdbsupport. * configure: Rebuild. * configure.ac: Change common to gdbsupport. *

The fix here is to add a cache of unique filenames per objfile so that the walk / uniquing is only done once. There's already a abstraction for this in symtab.c; this patch moves that code out to a separate file and C++ifies it bit. This makes the worst-case scenario above consistently drop to ~2.5s (1.5s for the "string_prin" hit case), making it over 3.3x times faster than psymtabs in this use case (7x in the "string_prin" hit case). gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-07-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (COMMON_OBS): Add filename-seen-cache.o. * dwarf2read.c: Include "filename-seen-cache.h". * dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_per_objfile) <filenames_cache>: New field.

Fix TAB-completion + .gdb_index slowness (generalize filename_seen_cache) Tab completion when debugging a program binary that uses GDB index is surprisingly much slower than when GDB uses psymtabs instead. Around 1.5x/3x slower. That's surprising, because the whole point of GDB index is to speed things up... For example, with: set pagination off set $count = 0 while $count < 400 complete b string_prin # matches gdb's string_printf printf "count = %d\n", $count set $count = $count + 1 end $ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-with-index -ex "source script.cmd" real 0m11.042s user 0m10.920s sys 0m0.042s $ time ./gdb --batch -q ./gdb-without-index -ex "source script.cmd" real 0m4.635s user 0m4.590s sys 0m0.037s Same but with: - complete b string_prin + complete b zzzzzz to exercise the no-matches worst case, master currently gets you something like: with index without index real 0m11.971s 0m8.413s user 0m11.912s 0m8.355s sys 0m0.035s 0m0.035s Running gdb under perf shows 80% spent inside maybe_add_partial_symtab_filename, and 20% spent in the lbasename inside that. The problem that tab completion walks over all compunit symtabs, and for each, walks the contained file symtabs. And there a huge number of file symtabs (each included system header, etc.) that appear in each compunit symtab's file symtab list. As in, when debugging GDB, I have 367381 symtabs iterated, when of those only 5371 filenames are unique... This was a regression from the earlier (nice) split of symtabs in compunit symtabs + file symtabs. The fix here is to add a cache of unique filenames per objfile so that the walk / uniquing is only done once.
