Accelerate lookup_symbol_aux_objfile 85x
During debugging I get 10-30 seconds for a response to simple commands like:
(gdb) print vectorvar.size()
With this patch the performance gets to 1-2 seconds which is somehow
acceptable. The problem is that dwarf2_gdb_index_functions.lookup_symbol
(quick_symbol_functions::lookup_symbol) may return (and returns) NULL even for
symbols which are present in .gdb_index but which can be found in already
expanded symtab. But searching in the already expanded symtabs is just too
slow when there are 400000+ expanded symtabs. There would be needed some
single global hash table for each objfile so that one does not have to iterate
all symtabs. Which .gdb_index could perfectly serve for, just its
lookup_symbol() would need to return authoritative yes/no answers.
Even after such fix these two simple patches are useful for example for
non-.gdb_index files.
One can reproduce the slugging interactive GDB performance with:
#include <string>
using namespace std;
string var;
class C {
public:
void m() {}
};
int main() {
C c;
c.m();
return 0;
}
g++ -o slow slow.C -Wall -g $(pkg-config --libs gtkmm-3.0)
gdb ./slow -ex 'b C::m' -ex 'maintenance set per-command space' -ex 'maintenance set per-command symtab' -ex 'maintenance set per-command
time' -ex r
[...]
(gdb) p <tab><tab>
Display all 183904 possibilities? (y or n) n
(gdb) p/r var
$1 = {static npos = <optimized out>, _M_dataplus = {<std::allocator<char>> = {<__gnu_cxx::new_allocator<char>> = {<No data fields>}, <No
data fields>}, _M_p = 0x3a4db073d8 <std::string::_Rep::_S_empty_rep_storage+24> ""}}

Without DWZ there are X global blocks for X primary symtabs for X CUs of
objfile. With DWZ there are X+Y global blocks for X+Y primary symtabs for
X+Y CUs where Y are 'DW_TAG_partial_unit's.
For 'DW_TAG_partial_unit's (Ys) their blockvector is usually empty. But not
always, I have found there typedef symbols, there can IMO be optimized-out
static variables etc.
Neither of the patches should cause any visible behavior change.
