The "add accessors for field (and call site) location" patch caused a gdb crash when running the internal AdaCore testsuite. This turned out to be a latent bug in ada-lang.c. The immediate cause of the bug is that find_struct_field unconditionally uses TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS. This causes an assert for a dynamic type. This patch fixes the problem by doing two things. First, it changes find_struct_field to use a dummy value for the field offset in the situation where the offset is not actually needed by the caller. This works because the offset isn't used in any other way -- only as a result. Second, this patch assures that calls to find_struct_field use a resolved type when the offset is needed. For value_tag_from_contents_and_address, this is done by resolving the type explicitly. In ada_value_struct_elt, this is done by passing nullptr for the out parameters when they are not needed (the second call in this function already uses a resolved type). Note that, while we believe the parent field probably can't occur at a variable offset, the patch still updates this code path, just in case. I've updated an existing test case to reproduce the crash. I'm checking this in.
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.
