It's bad to modify a type in a getter like this, so this patch removes
this code. FWIW I looked and this code has been there since at least
1999 (it was in the initial sourceware import).
Types in general would benefit from const-ification, which would
probably reveal more code like this, but I haven't attempted that.

PR symtab/29105 shows a number of situations where symbol lookup can
result in the expansion of too many CUs.
What happens is that lookup_signed_typename will try to look up a type
like "signed int". In cooked_index_functions::expand_symtabs_matching,
when looping over languages, the C++ case will canonicalize this type
name to be "int" instead. Then this method will proceed to expand
every CU that has an entry for "int" -- i.e., nearly all of them. A
crucial component of this is that the caller, objfile::lookup_symbol,
does not do this canonicalization, so when it tries to find the symbol
for "signed int", it fails -- causing the loop to continue.
This patch fixes the problem by introducing name canonicalization for
C. The idea here is that, by making C and C++ agree on the canonical
name when a symbol name can have multiple spellings, we avoid the bad
behavior in objfile::lookup_symbol (and any other such code -- I don't
know if there is any).
Unlike C++, C only has a few situations where canonicalization is
needed. And, in particular, due to the lack of overloading (thus
avoiding any issues in linespec) and due to the way c-exp.y works, I
think that no canonicalization is needed during symbol lookup -- only
during symtab construction. This explains why lookup_name_info is not
touched.
The stabs reader is modified on a "best effort" basis.
The DWARF reader needed one small tweak in dwarf2_name to avoid a
regression in dw2-unusual-field-names.exp. I think this is adequately
explained by the comment, but basically this is a scenario that should
not occur in real code, only the gdb test suite.
lookup_signed_typename is simplified. It used to search for two
different type names, but now gdb can search just for the canonical
form.
gdb.dwarf2/enum-type.exp needed a small tweak, because the
canonicalizer turns "unsigned integer" into "unsigned int integer".
It seems better here to use the correct C type name.

The code to create a range type has a heuristic to decide whether the
range is unsigned. However, this heuristic can fail if the upper
bound of the range has its high bit set, because the test is done
using LONGEST.
With this patch, if the underlying type of a range is unsigned, then
the range will always be unsigned. A new test is included.

A user found a bug where an array of packed arrays was printed

but the outer array does not -- and should not. However,
update_static_array_size does not distinguish between an array of

latter, only the innermost array will end up with a stride.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a flag to indicate whether a
given array type is a constituent of a multi-dimensional array.
Currently, every internal_error call must be passed __FILE__/__LINE__
explicitly, like:
internal_error (__FILE__, __LINE__, "foo %d", var);
The need to pass in explicit __FILE__/__LINE__ is there probably
because the function predates widespread and portable variadic macros
availability. We can use variadic macros nowadays, and in fact, we
already use them in several places, including the related
gdb_assert_not_reached.
So this patch renames the internal_error function to something else,
and then reimplements internal_error as a variadic macro that expands
__FILE__/__LINE__ itself.
The result is that we now should call internal_error like so:
internal_error ("foo %d", var);
Likewise for internal_warning.
The patch adjusts all calls sites. 99% of the adjustments were done
with a perl/sed script.

gdbarch implements its own registry-like approach. This patch changes
it to instead use registry.h. It's a rather large patch but largely
uninteresting -- it's mostly a straightforward conversion from the old
approach to the new one.
The main benefit of this change is that it introduces type safety to
the gdbarch registry. It also removes a bunch of code.
One possible drawback is that, previously, the gdbarch registry
differentiated between pre- and post-initialization setup. This
doesn't seem very important to me, though.
This rewrites registry.h, removing all the macros and replacing it
with relatively ordinary template classes. The result is less code
than the previous setup. It replaces large macros with a relatively
straightforward C++ class, and now manages its own cleanup.
The existing type-safe "key" class is replaced with the equivalent
template class. This approach ended up requiring relatively few
changes to the users of the registry code in gdb -- code using the key
system just required a small change to the key's declaration.
All existing users of the old C-like API are now converted to use the
type-safe API. This mostly involved changing explicit deletion
functions to be an operator() in a deleter class.
The old "save/free" two-phase process is removed, and replaced with a
single "free" phase. No existing code used both phases.
The old "free" callbacks took a parameter for the enclosing container
object. However, this wasn't truly needed and is removed here as
well.
When an objfile is destroyed, types that are still in use and
allocated on that objfile are copied. A temporary hash map is created
during this process, and it is allocated on the destroyed objfile's
obstack -- which normally is fine, as that is going to be destroyed
shortly anyway.
However, this approach requires that the objfile be passed to registry
destruction, and this won't be possible in the rewritten registry.
This patch changes the copied type hash table to simply use the heap
instead. It also removes the 'objfile' parameter from
copy_type_recursive, to make this all more clear.
This patch also fixes an apparent bug in copy_type_recursive.
Previously it was copying the dynamic property list to the dying
objfile's obstack:
- = copy_dynamic_prop_list (&objfile->objfile_obstack,
However I think this is incorrect -- that obstack is about to be
destroyed.
PR exp/20630 points out a simple way to cause an assertion failure in
copy_type -- but this was found in the wild a few times as well.
copy_type only works for objfile-owned types, but there isn't a deep
reason for this. This patch fixes the bug by updating copy_type to
work for any sort of type.
Better would perhaps be to finally implement type GC, but I still
haven't attempted this.

gdb: add support for Fortran's ASSUMED RANK arrays
Added support for Fortran assumed rank arrays. Unfortunately, this
commit contained a bug that means though GDB can correctly calculate
the rank of an assumed rank array, GDB can't fetch the contents of an
assumed rank array.
The history of this patch can be seen on the mailing list here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-January/185306.html
The patches that were finally committed can be found here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2022-March/186906.html
The original patches did support fetching the array contents, it was
only the later series that introduced the regression.
The problem is that when calculating the array rank the result is a
count of the number of ranks, i.e. this is a 1 based result, 1, 2, 3,
etc.
In contrast, when computing the details of any particular rank the
value passed to the DWARF expression evaluator should be a 0 based
rank offset, i.e. a 0 based number, 0, 1, 2, etc.
In the patches that were originally merged, this was not the case, and
we were passing the 1 based rank number to the expression evaluator,
e.g. passing 1 when we should pass 0, 2 when we should pass 1, etc.
As a result the DWARF expression evaluator was reading the
wrong (undefined) memory, and returning garbage results.
In this commit I have extended the test case to cover checking the
array contents, I've then ensured we make use of the correct rank
value, and extended some comments, and added or adjusted some asserts
as appropriate.
This patch adds a new dynamic property DYN_PROP_RANK, this property is
read from the DW_AT_rank attribute and stored within the type just
like other dynamic properties.
As arrays with dynamic ranks make use of a single
DW_TAG_generic_subrange to represent all ranks of the array, support
for this tag has been added to dwarf2/read.c.
The final piece of this puzzle is to add support in gdbtypes.c so that
we can resolve an array type with dynamic rank. To do this the
existing resolve_dynamic_array_or_string function is split into two,
there's a new resolve_dynamic_array_or_string_1 core that is
responsible for resolving each rank of the array, while the now outer
resolve_dynamic_array_or_string is responsible for figuring out the
array rank (which might require resolving a dynamic property) and then
calling the inner core.
The resolve_dynamic_range function now takes a rank, which is passed
on to the dwarf expression evaluator. This rank will only be used in
the case where the array itself has dynamic rank, but we now pass the
rank in all cases, this should be harmless if the rank is not needed.
The only small nit is that resolve_dynamic_type_internal actually
handles resolving dynamic ranges itself, which now obviously requires
us to pass a rank value. But what rank value to use? In the end I
just passed '1' through here as a sane default, my thinking is that if
we are in resolve_dynamic_type_internal to resolve a range, then the
range isn't part of an array with dynamic rank, and so the range
should actually be using the rank value at all.
An alternative approach would be to make the rank value a
gdb::optional, however, this ends up adding a bunch of complexity to
the code (e.g. having to conditionally build the array to pass to
dwarf2_evaluate_property, and handling the 'rank - 1' in
resolve_dynamic_array_or_string_1) so I haven't done that, but could,
if people think that would be a better approach.
Finally, support for assumed rank arrays was only fixed very recently
in gcc, so you'll need the latest gcc in order to run the tests for
this.
Here's an example test program:
PROGRAM arank
REAL :: a1(10)
CALL sub1(a1)
CONTAINS
SUBROUTINE sub1(a)
REAL :: a(..)
PRINT *, RANK(a)
END SUBROUTINE sub1

When we need to evaluate a DWARF expression in order to resolve some
dynamic property of a type we call the dwarf2_evaluate_property
function, which is declared in gdb/dwarf/loc.h and defined in
gdb/dwarf/loc.c.
Currently, this function takes (amongst other things) an argument of
type property_addr_info called addr_stack and a boolean called
push_initial_value. When push_initial_value then the top value of
addr_stack is pushed onto the dwarf expression evaluation stack before
the expression is evaluated.
So far this has worked fine, as the only two cases we needed to handle
are the case the DWARF expression doesn't require the object
address (what the top of addr_stack represents), and the case where
the DWARF expression does require the address.
In the next commit this is going to change. As we add support for
Fortran assumed rank arrays, we need to start resolving the dynamic
properties of arrays. To do this, we need to push the array rank onto
the dwarf expression evaluation stack before the expression is
evaluated.
This commit is a refactoring commit aimed at making it easier to
support Fortran assumed rank arrays. Instead of passing a boolean,
and using this to decide if we should push the object address or not,
we instead pass an array (view) of values that should be pushed to the
dwarf expression evaluation stack.
In the couple of places where we previously passed push_initial_value
as true (mostly this was defaulting to false), we now have to pass the
address from the addr_stack as an item in the array view.
In the next commit, when we want to handle passing the array rank,
this will easily be supported too.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
