[patch] [ppc64] eu-strip vs. func addresses for GDB inferior calls #3

Hi,

bfd/
This is a repost of the patch:
	Re: [3/3, ppc64, bfd patch] eu-strip vs. func addresses for GDB inferior calls
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-03/msg01046.html

as ppc64_elf_get_synthetic_symtab works with separate debug info file if ABFD
is the original file and only asymbol ->section are from the separate debug
info file.  But still there is needed this change for the ->section condition.

This follows the review:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-04/msg00094.html

gdb/
It just follows the other review if the asymbol patching is no longer needed:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-04/msg00093.html

It no longer needs the elfutils patch from the patchset #1 and it no longer
needs the sections original file <-> separate debug file remapping from the
patchset #2.

No regressions on {ppc64-m64,ppc64-m32}-rhel60-linux-gnu.


Thanks,
Jan

	* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_get_synthetic_symtab): Do not check for
	SEC_LOAD.

gdb/
2011-04-09  Jan Kratochvil  <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com>

	Fix convert_code_addr_to_desc_addr for ppc64 files after eu-strip.
	* elfread.c (elf_symfile_read): New variable synth_abfd, pass it to
	bfd_get_synthetic_symtab.
	* jit.c (jit_register_code): Pass NULL to the new parameter parent.
	* machoread.c (macho_add_oso_symfile): Pass main_objfile to the new
	parameter parent, remove the call to add_separate_debug_objfile.
	* solib.c (solib_read_symbols): Pass NULL to the new parameter parent.
	* symfile-mem.c (symbol_file_add_from_memory): Likewise.
	* symfile.c (symbol_file_add_with_addrs_or_offsets): New parameter
	parent, new comment for it, call add_separate_debug_objfile for it.
	(symbol_file_add_separate): Pass objfile as the parameter parent,
	remove the call to add_separate_debug_objfile.
	(symbol_file_add_from_bfd): New parameter parent, pass it.
	(symbol_file_add): Pass NULL to the new parameter parent.
	* symfile.h (symbol_file_add_from_bfd): New parameter parent.
