[PATCH] Support for DWARF5 location lists entries

[Achra, Nitika]

[AMD Official Use Only - Internal Distribution Only]

Hi Simon,

Please find the attachment.


*Handle DW_LLE_base_addressx, DW_LLE_startx_length and DW_LLE_start_length.

Tested by running the testsuite before and after the patch and there is no increase in the number of test cases that fails.
Tested with both -gdwarf-4 and -gdwarf-5 flags. Also tested -gslit-dwarf along with -gdwarf-4 as well as -gdwarf5 flags.


gdb/ChangeLog:
        *dwarf2loc.c (decode_debug_loclists_addresses): Handle
          DW_LLE_base_addressx, DW_LLE_startx_length, DW_LLE_start_length.

This is an effort to support DWARF5 in gdb.

Regards,
Nitika Achra

Thanks.

I could push this patch on your behalf, but I am having trouble applying it, probably because your client (I'm guessing outlook?) has messed with it.  Could you please generate it with git-format-patch and send it as an attachment?  This way it should arrive intact.
