Pedro Alves c63d3e8d12 Ada: make verbatim matcher override other language matchers (PR gdb/22670)
A previous patch fixed verbatim matching in the lookup at the minimal
symbol level, but we should also be finding that same symbol through
the partial/full symtab search.

For example, this is what happens if we use "print" instead of
"break":

    (gdb) p <MixedCaseFunc>
    $1 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x4024dc <MixedCaseFunc>

Before the C++ wildmatching series, GDB knows that MixedCaseFunc is a
function without parameters, and the expression above means calling
it.  If you try it before having started the inferior, you'd get the
following (expected) error:

    (gdb) print  <MixedCaseFunc>
    You can't do that without a process to debug.

The main idea behind making the name matcher be determined by the
symbol's language is so that C++ (etc.) wildmatching in linespecs
works even if the current language is not C++, as e.g., when you step
through C or assembly code.

Ada's verbatim matching syntax however ("<...>") isn't quite the same.
It is more a property of the current language than of a particular
symbol's language.  We want to support this syntax when debugging an
Ada program, but it's reason of existence is to find non-Ada symbols.
This suggests going back to enabling it depending on current language
instead of language of the symbol being matched.

I'm not entirely happy with the "current_language" reference (though I
think that it's harmless).  I think we could try storing the current
language in the lookup_name_info object, and then convert a bunch of
functions more to pass around lookup_name_info objects instead of
"const char *" names.  I.e., build the lookup_name_info higher up.
I'm not sure about that, I'll have to think more about it.  Maybe
something different will be better.  Meanwhile, this gets us going.

I've extended the testcase to also exercise a no-debug-info function,
for extra coverage of the minsyms-only paths.

gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-01-10  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	PR gdb/22670
	* dwarf2read.c
	(gdb_index_symbol_name_matcher::gdb_index_symbol_name_matcher):
	Adjust to use language_get_symbol_name_matcher instead of
	language_defn::la_get_symbol_name_matcher.
	* language.c (language_get_symbol_name_matcher): If in Ada mode
	and the lookup name is a verbatim match, return Ada's matcher.
	* language.h (language_get_symbol_name_matcher): Adjust comment.
	(ada_lookup_name_info::verbatim_p):: New method.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-01-10  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

	PR gdb/22670
	* gdb.ada/bp_c_mixed_case.exp: Add intro comment.  Test printing C
	functions too.  Test setting breakpoints and printing C functions
	with no debug info too.
	* gdb.ada/bp_c_mixed_case/qux.c: New file.

		   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.
