First, fix a technical problem with the function recurser. The test sets a
watch on local_x at a point where its value is technically undefined. The
test is written assuming that the value is not initially 2, but nothing in the
C standard guarantees that.
Second, augment the existing test for variables in recursive calls to check an
equivalent expression that explicitly sets the scope of the local variable
being tracked.

This test stops inside a recursive function after a few levels of recursion,
goes up some frames, and then accesses a local variable with 'print foo::val'
rather than the usual 'print val' to see if the former pays attention to the
selected frame.

* gdb.base/recpar.c, gdb.base/recpar.exp: New files.
GDB used to search for the frame containing variables in a particular
lexical block starting from the current (top) frame, ignoring any
currently selected frame. It is not clear why this is desirable for
variables that require a frame; why would a user deliberately select
one frame and then expect to see the value of a variable in a more
recent frame? This change causes block_innermost_frame to start
looking from the selected frame, if there is one. It may be
unnecessarily conservative: we use get_selected_frame_if_set rather
than get_selected_frame in order to avoid the side effect of calling
select_frame, which would probably be harmless.
Expression-parsing routines previously made the unwarranted assumption
that all block-qualified variables (written with the GDB extension
<block>::<variable>) are static. As a result, they failed to update
innermost_block, which confused the watch commands about when
variables in watched expressions went out of scope, and also caused
the wrong variables to be watched. This patch also modifies these
routines to treat all local variables the same whether or not they are
block-qualified.
Finally, we add a paragraph to the "Program Variables" section of the texinfo
documentation concerning the use of "::" for accessing non-static variables.

This is because locate_first_half skips the linespec until the dot,
and the decode_line_internal thinks that the dot might mean that
we have C++ or Java compound. It then tries calling decode_compound
which errors out because it sees the opening angle bracket but not
the closing one (I am guessing).
This patch short-circuits this part of the code when the current
language is Ada.

On Windows hosts, gdb_realpath is just an xstrdup. This makes filename
comparisons on Windows very chancy. Normally, we would normalize both
paths, and then compare. But since the normalization doesn't do
anything, two equivalent names on Windows might not match. This can
happen when trying to insert a breakpoint using the fullpath of a file.
For instance, if the compiler generated debug info that says that
the compilation directory is: `c:\\some\\double\\slashes\\dir', then
trying to insert a breakpoint on `c:/some/double/slashes/dir/foo.c:4'
does not work:
(gdb) b c:/some/double/slashes/dir/foo.c:4
No source file named c:/some/double/slashes/dir/foo.c:4.
(gdb) b c:\some\double\slashes\dir\foo.c:4

We are iterating over all symbols in a partial symtab that would
match a given name, so we should match the partial symbols
search name against the given name rather than using the natural
name. In C++, that does not make a difference, but it does in
Ada, because Ada searches using the symbol encoded name...
We also update the generation of the .gdb_index file to match this
change in the search. Although technically an incompatible change,
we do not increment the gdb_index version number, because Ada is
the only language where it would make a difference - except that
this feature is not supported for Ada.
gdb/ChangeLog:

This patch enhances the linespec parser to recognize unqualified
operator names in linespecs. This allows the user to insert a breakpoint
on operator "+" as follow, for instance:
(gdb) break "+"
Previously, it was possible to insert such a breakpoint, but one
had to fully qualify the function name. For instance:
(gdb) break ops."+"
gdb/ChangeLog:
* linespec.c (locate_first_half): Add handling of Ada operators
when the current language is Ada.
This fixes a problem where the debugger is trying to locate a minimal
symbol from its address, when the symbol is inside a section whose
VMA is different from its LMA.
We have a program that was built on ppc-elf using a linker script
such that data sections are placed in ROM, and then loaded onto RAM
at execution. So their VMA addresses are indeed different from
their LMA address.
Unfortunately, there is one place where GDB gets slightly confused
into thinking that these data sections are overlayed, while it's
not the case here. This show up when trying to print the list of
Ada tasks, where GDB is unable to determine their names, and thus
prints a generic `Ravenscar task' instead:
(gdb) info tasks
ID TID P-ID Pri State Name
1 1d580 127 Delay Sleep Ravenscar task
2 183f8 127 Delay Sleep Ravenscar task
* 3 13268 127 Runnable Ravenscar task
We expected:
(gdb) info tasks
ID TID P-ID Pri State Name
1 1d580 127 Delay Sleep environment_task
2 183f8 127 Delay Sleep raven2
* 3 13268 127 Runnable raven1
The name of the task is determined by looking up the symbol table
using the task ID, which is the address where the symbol is defined.
So, ada-tasks calls...
msym = lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc (task_id);
... which in turn first tries to determine the section associated
to this address (find_pc_section), which itself uses a map of sections
to find it. The map itself is recomputed every time objfiles are
loaded/changed by `update_section_map'. And `update_section_map'
relies on `insert_section_p' to determine whether the section should
be inserted in the map or not.
This is where things get interesting for us, because `insert_section_p'
simply rejects overlay sections:
if (lma != 0 && lma != bfd_section_vma (abfd, section)
&& (bfd_get_file_flags (abfd) & BFD_IN_MEMORY) == 0)
/* This is an overlay section. IN_MEMORY check is needed to avoid
discarding sections from the "system supplied DSO" (aka vdso)
on some Linux systems (e.g. Fedora 11). */
return 0;
However, it shouldn't reject our section in this case, since overlay
debugging is off. The fix is to add a check that overlay debugging
is active before rejecting the section. This is similar to what is
done in `section_is_overlay' (which takes obj_section objects), for
instance.
gdb/Changelog:
* objfiles.c (insert_section_p): Do not detect overlay sections
if overlay debugging is off.
Consider the following declaration:
package Pck is
task Dummy_Task is
entry Start;
end Dummy_Task;
end Pck;
Inserting a breakpoint on the body of that task does not currently
work:
(gdb) b pck.dummy_task
"pck.dummy_task" is not a function
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n
What happens here is that the compiler generates two symbols:
(a) Symbol `pck__dummy_task' which is a *variable* referencing
the task;
(b) Symbol `pck__dummy_taskTKB' which is the subprogram implementing
the body of the task.
The symbol lookup only finds the variable before of the TKB suffix in
the subprogram name. This patch fixes the problem by adjusting the
ada-lang.c:is_name_suffix routine to recognize "TKB" suffixes. But
that's not enough, because the search in the symtab is performed via
the block dictionary, using a hashing algorithm. So, for the search
to find `pck__dummy_taskTKB', I had to modify the hashing function
to ignore TKB suffixes as well.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (is_name_suffix): Add handling of "TKB" suffixes.
Update function documentation.
* dictionary.c (dict_hash): Ignore "TKB" suffixes in hash
computation.
