This was a local hack to work around a limitation in update-copyright.
But the limitation is now OBE, because the copyright statements should
now always fit on a single line, thanks to the new policy of using
one single year range in the copyright notice.
gdb/ChangeLog:

(update_files): Do not set MULTILINE_COMMENT_PREFIXES
environment variable before calling update-copyright.
... and update our copyright.py script to set environment variable
UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS to '2' instead of '1'. This tells
the script to collapse all years into one single interval.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* gnulib/extra/update-copyright: Update to the latest from
gnulib's git repository.

The processID function is supposed to take a symbol name, and process it
in a way that allows us to look that symbol up. This patch is adding
a guard to make sure that we do not apply any transformation if we detect
that we are given an already-encoded symbol name. For instance:
gv___XR_pck__global_variable___XE
This happens in the case where we are trying to print the value of
a renaming. To do this, we simply parse and evaluate the XR symbol
name as an expression. Without this change, the expression parser
transforms gv___XR_pck__global_variable___XE into somethink like
gv___xr_pck__global_variable___xe, which then screws up the rest
of the renaming evaluation.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lex.p (processId): Do not modify already encoded IDs.
Update function documentation.
This is a minor improvement in ada_find_renaming_symbol: What we were
doing was going from a symbol, get its name, and then search for
renamings. But if the original symbol was already itself a renaming,
then we'd look the symbol up again to return it. Since we had the
symbol in the first place, we shouldn't need to look it up again.
This is what this patch does: Modify ada_find_renaming_symbol to
take a symbol instead of the symbol's (linkage) name, and then updates
the one caller.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.h (ada_find_renaming_symbol): Replace parameter
"name" with "struct symbol *name_sym".
* ada-exp.y (write_var_or_type): Update call to
ada_find_renaming_symbol.
* ada-lang.c (ada_find_renaming_symbol): Replace parameter
"name" with "struct symbol *name_sym". Adjust Implementation
accordingly. Adjust the function documentation.
Consider the following function...
3 procedure Foo is
4 I : Integer := Ident (10);
5 Obj : Base;
6 begin
7 Obj.X := I;
8 Do_Nothing (Obj.X'Address);
9 end Foo;
... where type "Base" is defined as a plain tagged record. If the user
stops execution before "Obj" gets initialized (for example, by inserting
a breakpoint "on" the function - or in other words, by inserting a
breakpoint using the function name as the location), one might get
the following of output if you try printing the value of obj:
(gdb) p obj
object size is larger than varsize-limit
object size is larger than varsize-limit
object size is larger than varsize-limit
$1 = object size is larger than varsize-limit
(x => 4204154)
Same thing with "info locals":
(gdb) info locals
i = 0
obj = object size is larger than varsize-limit
(x => 4204154)
We have also seen different error messages such as "Cannot read
memory at 0x...".
The error happens because we are trying to read the dispatch table
of a tagged type variable before it gets initialized. So the errors
might legitimately occur, and are supposed to be be contained.
However, the way things are written in ada-lang.c:ada_tag_name,
although the exception is in fact contained, the error message still
gets to be printed out.
This patch prevents this from happening by eliminating the use of
catch_errors, and using a TRY_CATCH block instead. Doing this removed
the need to use functions specifically fitted for catch_errors, and
thus some other simplifications could me made. In the end, the code
got reorganized a bit to better show the logic behind it, as well as
the common patterns.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (struct tag_args): Delete.
(ada_get_tsd_type): Function body moved up in source file.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/tagged_not_init: New testcase.
This patch introduces two new functions that will be used to support
the implementation of the ada-varobj effort. The function descriptions
should say it all...
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.h (ada_get_decoded_value, ada_get_decoded_type): Add
declaration.
* ada-lang.c (ada_get_decoded_value, ada_get_decoded_type): New
function.
The ada_lookup_symbol_list function has recently been changed to accept
a "full_search" parameter. When null, this parameter instructs the
function to perform a partial search (global and static symbols are not
searched). When doing a partial search, the result should not be saved
into the lookup cache, as the result might be incomplete.
This manifested itself when trying to perform a function call on AVR
after having inserted a breakpoint inside that function:
(gdb) b same
Breakpoint 2 at 0x78: file r.adb, line 5.
(gdb) call same(42)
Breakpoint 2, r.same (i=42) at r.adb:5
5 return I;
The program being debugged stopped while in a function called from GDB.
Evaluation of the expression containing the function
(at 0x0x800068) will be abandoned.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.
The expected output for the underlined portion is "(r.same)".
What happens is that the breakpoint command triggers 3 lookups of the
name "same":
1. full search in LABEL_DOMAIN -> no match, cached;
2. full search in VAR_DOMAIN -> 1 match, cached;
3. partial search in VAR_DOMAIN -> no match, cached.
The third lookup therefore causes the results of the partial search
to be cached, thus overriding the result of the full search lookup.
During the following command, the reference to "same" triggers a lookup
of that symbol again. And since GDB CAN find the result of that lookup
in the cache, it returns just that, which is: No match. (wrong!)
As a result, we fallback on the symbol table to resolve the lookup.
And instead of pushing an OP_VAR_VALUE subexpression for symbol "same",
the parser ends up pushing an UNOP_MEMVAL subexpression using the value
of the minimal symbol. This is where being on AVR becomes important:
addresses on AVR are modular types, and if GDB thinks an address is
a data address, it converts it.
This is where one notices the fact that the breakpoint was inserted
at 0x78, and yet GDB says that the function we stopped at is at
0x0x800068...
This patch fixes the problem by making sure we only cache the result
of full searches.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_lookup_symbol_list): Only cache the result of
full searches.
Consider the following declarations (a packed array indexed by an
enumerated type):
type Color is (Black, Red, Green, Blue, White);
type Full_Table is array (Color) of Boolean;
pragma Pack (Full_Table);
Full : Full_Table := (False, True, False, True, False);
GDB is unable to print the index values correctly. It prints the
enumeration's underlying value instead of the enumeration name:
(gdb) p full
$1 = (0 => false, true, false, true, false)
(gdb) p full'first
$2 = 0
And yet, it is capable of printing the correct type description:
(gdb) ptype full
type = array (black .. white) of boolean <packed: 1-bit elements>
To get to the real index type, one has to follow the parallel XA type.
We already do this for normal arrays. We can do it for this packed
array as well.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (constrained_packed_array_type): If there is a
parallel XA type, use it to determine the array index type.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/arrayidx.exp: Adjust expected output for p_one_two_three.
* gdb.ada/enum_idx_packed: New testcase.
This patch is to help handle aliased array variables, such as:
type Bounded is array (Integer range <>) of Integer;
function New_Bounded (Low, High : Integer) return Bounded;
BT : aliased Bounded := New_Bounded (Low => 1, High => 3);
In that case, the compiler describes variable "BT" as a reference
to a thin pointer, and GDB is unable to print its value:
(gdb) p bt
$1 =
The problems starts when ada_value_print deconstructs the struct
value into contents and address in order to call val_print. It
turns out in this case that "bt" is not an lval. In the debug
information, this variable's location is described as:
.uleb128 0xd # (DIE (0xe0) DW_TAG_variable)
.ascii "bt\0" # DW_AT_name
[...]
.byte 0x6 # DW_AT_location
.byte 0x91 # DW_OP_fbreg
.sleb128 -56
.byte 0x6 # DW_OP_deref
.byte 0x23 # DW_OP_plus_uconst
.uleb128 0x8
.byte 0x9f # DW_OP_stack_value
So, when ada_value_print passes the bt's (value) address, it passes
in effect a meaningless address. The problem continues shortly after
when ada_val_print_1 re-creates the value from the contents and address.
The value has become an lval_memory, with a null address.
As a result, we trigger a memory error later on, while trying to
read the array bounds in order to transform our value into a simple
array.
To avoid the problem entirely, the fix is to coerce references before
transforming array descriptors into simple arrays.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-valprint.c (ada_val_print_1): If our value is a reference
to an array descriptor, dereference it before converting it
to a simple array.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/aliased_array: New testcase.
We should always unwrap a value before trying to "fix" it. It is
therefore logical that ada_to_fixed_value would call unwrap_value
before creating the fixed value.
This simplifies the code in ada-lang.c a bit.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (ada_to_fixed_value): Call unwrap_value before
creating fixed value.
(ada_value_ind, ada_coerce_ref, assign_component)
(ada_evaluate_subexp): Remove call to unwrap_value before
call to ada_to_fixed_value.
Consider the following declaration:
type Full_Table is array (Color) of Integer;
Full : Full_Table := (144, 233, 377, 610, 987);
The debugger correctly prints the type name of variable "full":
(gdb) whatis full
type = pck.full_table
But is unable to do so when using the value history:
(gdb) print full
$1 = (144, 233, 377, 610, 987)
(gdb) whatis $
!!! -> type = array (black .. white) of integer
This is because the evaluation creates a "fixed" version of
the array type, and that "fixed" version is missing a type name.
As a result, whatis falls back to describing the type (a la ptype)
instead of printing the type name.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (to_fixed_array_type): Set result's type name.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/whatis_array_val: New testcase.
Previously, conditions could be associated to Ada exception catchpoints,
but not while creating the exception catchpoint:
