Description Tom de Vries 2021-02-24 17:37:21 UTC
Using the same assert as in PR25424, and using the tentative patch series, we run into:
...
$ dwz cc1.dwz-processed -o 1 -lnone --odr 
dwz: /home/vries/dwz/dwz.git/dwz.c:12601: write_die: Assertion `IMPLIES (cu->cu_kind == CU_PU, die_cu (refd)->cu_kind == CU_PU)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
...

This is related to the duplicate chain:
...
 28dd83f O b500801d 621b6872  pointer_type (type: 28dd72f die_struct structure_type)
 2903769 O b500801d 621b6872  pointer_type (type: 28dd72f die_struct structure_type)
...
which are both in the same CU:
...

    <28dd841>   DW_AT_type        : <0x28dd72f>

 <1><2903769>: Abbrev Number: 9 (DW_TAG_pointer_type)
    <290376a>   DW_AT_byte_size   : 8
    <290376b>   DW_AT_type        : <0x28dd72f>

 <0><2911617>: Abbrev Number: 177 (DW_TAG_compile_unit)
...

The dup chain is forced to a partial unit, but the die_struct DIE is not, because it's not part of a duplicate chain, and it's not marked as a singleton.
