[PATCHv2 1/2] gdb/fortran: resolve dynamic types when readjusting after an indirection

Andrew Burgess andrew.burgess@embecosm.com
Mon Jul 13 13:33:21 GMT 2020


After dereferencing a pointer (in value_ind) or following a
reference (in coerce_ref) we call readjust_indirect_value_type to
"fixup" the type of the resulting value object.

This fixup handles cases relating to the type of the resulting object
being different (a sub-class) of the original pointers target type.

If we encounter a pointer to a dynamic type then after dereferencing a
pointer (in value_ind) the type of the object created will have had
its dynamic type resolved.  However, in readjust_indirect_value_type,
we use the target type of the original pointer to "fixup" the type of
the resulting value.  In this case, the target type will be a dynamic
type, so the resulting value object, once again has a dynamic type.

This then triggers an assertion later within GDB.

The solution I propose here is that we call resolve_dynamic_type on
the pointer's target type (within readjust_indirect_value_type) so
that the resulting value is not converted back to a dynamic type.

The test case is based on the original test in the bug report.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	PR fortran/23051
	PR fortran/26139
	* valops.c (value_ind): Pass address to
	readjust_indirect_value_type.
	* value.c (readjust_indirect_value_type): Make parameter
	non-const, and add extra address parameter.  Resolve original type
	before using it.
	* value.h (readjust_indirect_value_type): Update function
	signature and comment.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	PR fortran/23051
	PR fortran/26139
	* gdb.fortran/class-allocatable-array.exp: New file.
	* gdb.fortran/class-allocatable-array.f90: New file.
	* gdb.fortran/pointer-to-pointer.exp: New file.
	* gdb.fortran/pointer-to-pointer.f90: New file.
