Now we just pass a NULL terminated array of filenames, since we got rid
of that ugly -e insertion hack.

And make the dwarves use it, so that we can remove duplicate strings in
a multi-CU file (vmlinux anyone?) and have it ready for insertion in a
compressed DWARF format with just the types, or better, CTF or some new
compressed debugging info format.

So that one can get an skeleton from where a function can be
reimplemented, or a probe can be written to attach to a tracepoint.
Right now it will only expand the types for
struct/union/typedef/enumeration types, but it is a good start.
[acme@doppio pahole]$ pfunct --expand_types --function inet6_ioctl ipv6.ko > a.c
[acme@doppio pahole]$ echo "int main(void) { return 0; }" >> a.c
[acme@doppio pahole]$ gcc -Wall -g a.c -o a
[acme@doppio pahole]$ grep ^#include a.c
[acme@doppio pahole]$
No errors, no includes.
This is present in ctracer, where we don't want to _require_ any header
files, just the object file with the function we want to probe. From
there we get the function signature, and reconstruct the types needed to
access members of structs passed as parameters.
We still need to add padding to reconstruct __attribute__ alignment
effects.
Also, if we can detect what are the exact members accessed in the probe,
we can reconstruct just what is needed to access those members,
hopefully reducing the time needed for gcc to digest the resulting
source code. And also reducing the size of the output, which can
hopefully be interesting to help focus on what the probe is doing.

Basically a wrapper for ftype__fprintf(&function__proto, ...) for the
cases we want the prototype rendered to a buffer, not to a file.

For correctly created and completely parsed debugging information the type will
always be found, but as we still need to parse more tags and expecting
debugging information to be always correctly built is not sane... sprinkle some
asserts.

This is trying to get CTF friendly, where bitfields are not stored in the
equivalent to the DW_TAG_member dwarf TAG, but on "base types" with bit sizes
different than the real in the DWARF sense, base types (char, long, etc).

In libdwarves.so well continue using DW_TAG_ entries and types for now, but its
becoming non-DWARF specific as will be demonstrated with the introduction of
ctf_loader.c in the upcoming csets.

When we are looking for members of some type in all CUs it may be that in
some CU we don't have the full type, but just a declaration.

But we have to support multiple vtables when multiple inheritance exists.

And use it when expandind pointer types (using --expand_pointer).
This has to be done because the offset comments make no sense when expanding a
pointer.
Will be used as well in pahole --quiet.

So that we can expand pointer types, useful for ABI signature checking. And to
fully browse a type, when using --expand_types is also of interest.
I have yet to disable printing the offsets when expanding pointers, where the
information is not useful at all, for now just ignore it, it gets back to a
sane state in the next field, after the pointer type expansion.

To indicate wheter the semicolon should be supressed. Useful for
prototype/function emission, etc.
Also move the struct stats to be inside its body, to simplify tag__fprintf,
that now looks at conf.no_semicolon after calling the tag type specific
__fprintf method.

So that tools can specify if they are interested in printing just the members
that use space in the class layout (DW_TAG_inheritance, DW_TAG_member) and not
things like constructors, private type definitions, etc.
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net>
So that we traverse just the data members, mostly in the reorganize code, where
we can't care less where is that the compiler put the base classes in the
layout since we can't influence how the compiler does this, it has only to
respect the layout we specify for the data members.
Well, it may well be the case that the order of the ancestor classes in the
class declaration can influence this, but I haven't checked.
Yes, another C++ism :-)

C++ uses this, and to cache the result of the lookup at type__name time we need
to pass the cu to class__name and type__name. Big fallout because of that :-\
But now the output is mucho embelished by the humongous strings representing
C++ templates.
