Using the gdb.ada/var_rec_arr.exp test, where the program declares
an array of variant records...
type Record_Type (I : Small_Type := 0) is record
S : String (1 .. I);
end record;
type Array_Type is array (Integer range <>) of Record_Type;
... and then a variable A1 of type Array_Type, the following command
ocassionally trigger an internal error trying to allocate more memory
than we have left:
(gdb) ptype a1(1)
[...]/utils.c:1089: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
[...]
What happens is that recent versions of GNAT are able to generate
DWARF expressions for type Record_Type, and therefore the record's
DW_AT_byte_size is not a constant, which unfortunately breaks
an assumption made by dwarf2read.c:read_structure_type when it does:
attr = dwarf2_attr (die, DW_AT_byte_size, cu);
if (attr)
{
TYPE_LENGTH (type) = DW_UNSND (attr);
}
As a result of this, when ada_evaluate_subexp tries to create
a value_zero for a1(1) while processing the OP_FUNCALL operator
as part of evaluating the subscripting operation in no-side-effect
mode, we try to allocate a value with a bogus size, potentially
triggering the out-of-memory internal error.
This patch avoids this issue by setting the length to zero in
this case. Until we decide to start supporting dynamic type
lengths in GDB's type struct, and it's not clear yet that
this is worth the effort (see added comment), that's probably
the best we can do.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2read.c (read_structure_type): Set the type's length
to zero if it has a DW_AT_byte_size attribute which is not
a constant.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* testsuite/gdb.ada/var_rec_arr.exp: Add "ptype a1(1)" test.

README
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
