Hi,
[ Requires "[gdb/symtab] Fix assert in set_length" submitted here (
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-August/191313.html ). ]
When running test-case gdb.cp/cpexprs-debug-types.exp on target board
cc-with-debug-names/gdb:debug_flags=-gdwarf-5, we get an executable with
a .debug_names section, but no .debug_types section. For dwarf-5, the TUs
are no longer put in a separate unit, but instead they're put in the
.debug_info section.
When loading the executable, the .debug_names section is silently ignored
because of this check in dwarf2_read_debug_names:
...
if (map->tu_count != 0)
{
/* We can only handle a single .debug_types when we have an
index. */
if (per_bfd->types.size () != 1)
return false;
...
which triggers because per_bfd->types.size () == 0.
The intention of the check is to make sure we don't have both .debug_types and
.zdebug_types sections.
Fix this by:
- changing the check condition to "per_bfd->types.size () > 1", and
- handling per_bfd->types.size () == 0.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29385
Any comments?
Thanks,
- Tom
