Andrew Burgess 28d2bfb9c3 gdb: Handle multiple base address in debug_ranges data.
It is possible to use multiple base addresses within a single address
range series, within the .debug_ranges section.  The following is a
simplified example for 32-bit addresses:

  .section ".debug_ranges"
  .4byte	0xffffffff
  .4byte	BASE_1
  .4byte	START_OFFSET_1
  .4byte	END_OFFSET_1
  .4byte	START_OFFSET_2
  .4byte	END_OFFSET_2
  .4byte	0xffffffff
  .4byte	BASE_2
  .4byte	START_OFFSET_3
  .4byte	END_OFFSET_3
  .4byte	0
  .4byte	0

In this example START/END 1 and 2 are relative to BASE_1, while
START/END 3 are relative to BASE_2.

Currently gdb does not correctly parse this DWARF, resulting in
corrupted address range information.  This commit fixes this issue, and
adds a new test to cover this case.

In order to support testing of this feature extensions were made to the
testsuite dwarf assembler, additional functionality was added to the
.debug_line generation function, and a new function for generating the
.debug_ranges section was added.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* dwarf2read.c (dwarf2_ranges_read): Unify and fix base address
	reading code.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-base.c: New file.
	* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ranges-base.exp: New file.
	* lib/dwarf.exp (namespace eval Dwarf): Add new variables to
	support additional line table, and debug ranges generation.
	(Dwarf::ranges): New function, generate .debug_ranges.
	(Dwarf::lines): Support generating simple line table programs.
	(Dwarf::assemble): Initialise new namespace variables.

		   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

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