Kevin Buettner 2223449a47 gdb.dwarf2: Define and use gdb_target_symbol for symbol prefixes
Some of the tests in gdb.dwarf2 which use Dwarf::assemble refer to
(minimal/linker) symbols created in the course of building a small
test program.  Some targets use a prefix such as underscore ("_") on
these symbols.  Many of the tests in gdb.dwarf2 do not take this into
account.  As a consequence, these tests fail to build, resulting
either in failures or untested testcases.

Here is an example from gdb.dwarf2/dw2-regno-invalid.exp:

    Dwarf::assemble $asm_file {
        cu {} {
            compile_unit {
                {low_pc main DW_FORM_addr}
                {high_pc main+0x10000 DW_FORM_addr}
            } {
            ...
            }

For targets which require an underscore prefix on linker symbols,
the two occurrences of "main" would have to have a prepended underscore,
i.e. _main instead of main.

For the above case, a call to the new proc gdb_target_symbol is used
prepend the correct prefix to the symbol.  I.e. the above code is
rewritten (as shown in the patch) as follows:

    Dwarf::assemble $asm_file {
        cu {} {
            compile_unit {
                {low_pc [gdb_target_symbol main] DW_FORM_addr}
                {high_pc [gdb_target_symbol main]+0x10000 DW_FORM_addr}
            } {
            ...
            }

I also found it necessary to make an adjustment to lib/dwarf.exp so that
expressions of more than just one list element can be used in DW_TAG_...
constructs.  Both atomic-type.exp and dw2-bad-mips-linkage-name.exp require
this new functionality.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_target_symbol_prefix, gdb_target_symbol):
	New procs.
	* lib/dwarf.exp (_handle_DW_TAG): Handle attribute values,
	representing expressions, of more than one list element.
	* gdb.dwarf2/atomic-type.exp (Dwarf::assemble): Use gdb_target_symbol
	to prepend linker symbol prefix to f.
	* gdb.dwarf2/data-loc.exp (Dwarf::assemble): Likewise, for
	table_1 and table_2.
	* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-bad-mips-linkage-name.exp (Dwarf::assemble):
	Likewise, for f and g.
	* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ifort-parameter.exp (Dwarf::assemble): Likewise,
	for ptr.
	* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-regno-invalid.exp (Dwarf::assemble): Likewise,
	for main.
	* gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp (Dwarf::assemble): Likewise, for
	table_1_ptr and table_2_ptr.

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.
