Tom de Vries 05527d8ca1 [gdb/ada] Fix gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp with gcc 7
This test in test-case gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp passes with gcc 8:
...
(gdb) print obj^M
$1 = (n => 3, a => "ABC", value => 93)^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp: print local as interface
...
but fails with gcc 7:
...
(gdb) print obj^M
$1 = ()^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp: print local as interface
...

More concretely, we have trouble finding the type of obj.  With gcc 8:
...
$ gdb -q -batch main -ex "b concrete.adb:20" -ex run -ex "ptype obj"
  ...
type = <ref> new concrete.intermediate with record
    value: integer;
end record
...
and with gcc 7:
...
type = <ref> tagged record null; end record
...

The translation from tagged type to "full view" type happens in
ada_tag_value_at_base_address, where we hit this code:
...
  /* Storage_Offset'Last is used to indicate that a dynamic offset to
     top is used.  In this situation the offset is stored just after
     the tag, in the object itself.  */
  if (offset_to_top == last)
    {
      struct value *tem = value_addr (tag);
      tem = value_ptradd (tem, 1);
      tem = value_cast (ptr_type, tem);
      offset_to_top = value_as_long (value_ind (tem));
    }
...
resulting in an offset_to_top for gcc 8:
...
(gdb) p offset_to_top
$1 = -16
...
and for gcc 7:
...
(gdb) p offset_to_top
$1 = 16
...

The difference is expected, it bisects to gcc commit d0567dc0dbf ("[multiple
changes]") which mentions this change.

There's some code right after the code quoted above that deals with this
change:
...
  else if (offset_to_top > 0)
    {
      /* OFFSET_TO_TOP used to be a positive value to be subtracted
	 from the base address.  This was however incompatible with
	 C++ dispatch table: C++ uses a *negative* value to *add*
	 to the base address.  Ada's convention has therefore been
	 changed in GNAT 19.0w 20171023: since then, C++ and Ada
	 use the same convention.  Here, we support both cases by
	 checking the sign of OFFSET_TO_TOP.  */
      offset_to_top = -offset_to_top;
    }
...
but it's not activated because of the 'else'.

Fix this by removing the 'else'.

Tested on x86_64-linux, with gcc 7.5.0.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
