Keith Seitz 4a27f119f5 Use SaL symbol name when reporting breakpoint locations
Currently, "info break" can show some (perhaps) unexpected results when
setting a breakpoint on an inlined function:

(gdb) list
1	#include <stdio.h>
2
3	static inline void foo()
4	{
5	        printf("Hello world\n");
6	}
7
8	int main()
9	{
10	        foo();
11	        return 0;
12	}
13
(gdb) b foo
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400434: file foo.c, line 5.
(gdb) i b
Num     Type           Disp Enb Address            What
1       breakpoint     keep y   0x0000000000400434 in main at foo.c:5

GDB reported that we understood what "foo" was, but we then report that the
breakpoint is actually set in main. While that is literally true, we can
do a little better.

This is accomplished by copying the symbol for which the breakpoint was set
into the bp_location.  From there, print_breakpoint_location can use this
information to print out symbol information (if available) instead of calling
find_pc_sect_function.

With the patch installed,

(gdb) i b
Num     Type           Disp Enb Address            What
1       breakpoint     keep y   0x0000000000400434 in foo at foo.c:5

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* breakpoint.c (print_breakpoint_location): Use the symbol saved
	in the bp_location, falling back to find_pc_sect_function when
	needed.
	(add_location_to_breakpoint): Save sal->symbol.
	* breakpoint.h (struct bp_location) <symbol>: New field.
	* symtab.c (find_function_start_sal): Save the symbol into the SaL.
	* symtab.h (struct symtab_and_line) <symbol>: New field.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gdb.opt/inline-break.exp (break_info_1): New procedure.
	Test "info break" for every inlined function breakpoint.

		   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.
