Tom de Vries 456ba0fa36 [gdb/testsuite] Fix handling of DW_FORM_ref_addr in dwarf assembler
When running gdb.dwarf2/multidictionary.exp with target board cc-with-dwz and
current dwz, we run into a dwz abort:
...
gdb compile failed, gdb/contrib/cc-with-tweaks.sh: line 188: 11484 Aborted \
  (core dumped) $DWZ "$output_file" > /dev/null 2>&1
UNTESTED: gdb.dwarf2/multidictionary.exp: multidictionary.exp
...
The dwz abort (PR dwz/24169) is caused by an invalid DW_FORM_ref_addr in the
multidictionary binary.

The multidictionary binary is build from multidictionary.S which is generated
using the dwarf assembler, and multidictionary.S contains dwarf for 3
compilation units.

In multidictionary0.o (generated from multidictionary.S), we find a concrete
formal parameter DIE:
...
 <2><dc>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
    <dd>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xa6>
...
referring to an abstract formal parameter DIE at 0xa6:
...
 <2><a6>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
    <a7>   DW_AT_name        : msg
    <ab>   DW_AT_type        : <0x92>
...
but in the multidictionary binary the concrete formal parameter DIE is still
referring to 0xa6:
...
 <2><1a3>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
    <1a4>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0xa6>
...
while the abstract formal parameter DIE has moved to 0x16d:
...
 <2><16d>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
    <16e>   DW_AT_name        : msg
    <172>   DW_AT_type        : <0x159>
...

The concrete formal parameter DIE is specified in multidictionary.S like this:
...
.Llabel21:
        .uleb128        4
        .4byte        .Llabel17 - .Lcu1_begin
...

The problem is that the .Lcu1_begin label is assumed to mark the start of the
.debug_info section in the executable, but in fact it marks the start of the
first compilation unit from multidictionary.S in the executable.  Usually
these two entities are the same, but they are not when linked in object files
contain dwarf info and are placed in the .debug_info section before the
compilation units generated from multidictionary.S.

Fix this in the dwarf assembler by generating instead the label itself:
...
.Llabel21:
        .uleb128        4
        .4byte        .Llabel17
...
resulting in a relocation in the object file:
...
  Offset          Info           Type           Sym. Value    Sym. Name + Addend
0000000000dd  00040000000a R_X86_64_32       0000000000000000 .debug_info + a6
...
and resulting in the correct offset in the executable:
...
 <2><1a3>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_formal_parameter)
    <1a4>   DW_AT_abstract_origin: <0x16d>
...

Tested on x86_64-linux with native and cc-with-dwz.

		   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

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.
