When looking up file and line information (used from the linker to
report error messages) if no symbol is passed in, then use the symbol
list to look for a matching symbol.
If a matching symbol is found then use this to look up the file / line
information.
This should improve errors when looking up file / line information for
data sections. Hopefully we should find a matching data symbol, which
should, in turn (we hope) match a DW_TAG_variable in the DWARF, this
should allow us to give accurate file / line errors for data symbols.
As the hope is to find a matching DW_TAG_variable in the DWARF then we
ignore section symbols, and prefer global symbols to locals.
bfd/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2.c (_bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line): Perform symbol lookup
before trying to fine matching file and line information.
ld/ChangeLog:
* testsuite/ld-elf/shared.exp: Update expected results.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf2.err: Likewise
When parsing DWARF data in order to report file/line type error messages
we perform section placement to make section addresses unique within
relocatable object files.
Currently, if we reuse previously loaded (and cached) dwarf data then we
neglect to perform section placement, the result is that the section
addresses will not be unique, and we might, incorrectly associate an
address with the wrong debug information, and so report an incorrect
file and line number.
Further we neglect to check that that bfd for which we are looking up
debug information is actually the bfd for which the previous debug
information was loaded, it is possible that we will reuse previously
loaded debug information for a different bfd.
And finally, due to following of gnu_debuglink links in one bfd to
another, the process of checking that the cached debug information is
valid requires us to track the original bfd in the cached debug
information. The original debug information here is either the bfd that
we're interested in, not the bfd we finally load the debug information
from.
bfd/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2.c (struct dwarf2_debug): Add orig_bfd member.
(_bfd_dwarf2_slurp_debug_info): If stashed debug information does
not match current bfd, then reload debug information. Record bfd
we're loading debug info for in the stash. If we have debug
informatin in the cache then perform section placement before
returning.
ld/ChangeLog:
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf.exp (build_tests): Add new tests.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf2.err: New file.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf2a.c: New file.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf2b.c: New file.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf3.c: New file.
* testsuite/ld-elf/dwarf3.err: New file.
