Re: Regressions in gas test-suite results with your recent dwarf fixes


Hi Hans-Peter,

With one of your recent dwarf-related commits (either 03a91817f16 or
77ef86547510c), I see regressions for cris-elf and cris-linux;
these FAILs where there should be none:

Running /tmp/hpautotest-binutils/bsrc/src/gas/testsuite/gas/cris/cris.exp ...
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-11
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-2
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-4
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-5
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-7
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-8
FAIL: gas/cris/rd-dw2-9

I had a quick look to handle any quick adjustment to tweaked
output format, but the displayed location information is-like
displayed or generated modulo 32768 or something.  Looking at
the disassembly, the actual code (and the location) is as
before.

I am very sorry about this. Your are correct - there was a bug in the code in read_leb128 that was meant to check for an unterminated leb128 number. I have now checked in the patch below to fix this.

Cheers
  Nick
