The comment for the code in question says:
/* If the minimal symbol has a zero size, save it
but keep scanning backwards looking for one with
a non-zero size. A zero size may mean that the
symbol isn't an object or function (e.g. a
label), or it may just mean that the size was not
specified. */
As written, the code in question will only scan past the first symbol
of zero size. My change fixes the implementation to match the
comment.
Having this correct is important when the compiler generates several
local labels that are left in place by the linker. (I've been told
that the linker should eliminate these symbols, but I know of one
architecture for which this is not happening.)
I've created a test case called asmlabel.c. It's pretty simple:
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
asm ("L0:");
v = 0;
asm ("L1:");
v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
asm ("L2:");
v = 2; /* set L2 breakpoint here */
return 0;
}
If breakpoints are placed on the lines indicated by the comments,
this is the behavior of GDB built without my patch:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, L1 () at asmlabel.c:26
26 v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
Note that L1 appears as the function instead of main. This is not
what we want to happen. With my patch in place, we see the desired
behavior instead:
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffdb88) at asmlabel.c:26
26 v = 1; /* set L1 breakpoint here */
gdb/ChangeLog:
* minsyms.c (lookup_minimal_symbol_by_pc_section_1): Scan backwards
over all zero-sized symbols.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/asmlabel.exp: New test.
* gdb.base/asmlabel.c: New test case.
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.
