Consider the test case added in this patch. It defines a compilation
unit with a DW_AT_rnglists_base attribute (used for attributes of form
DW_FORM_rnglistx), but also uses DW_AT_ranges of form
DW_FORM_sec_offset:
0x00000027: DW_TAG_compile_unit
DW_AT_ranges [DW_FORM_sec_offset] (0x0000004c
[0x0000000000005000, 0x0000000000006000))
DW_AT_rnglists_base [DW_FORM_sec_offset] (0x00000044)
The DW_AT_rnglists_base does not play a role in reading the DW_AT_ranges of
form DW_FORM_sec_offset, but it should also not do any harm.
This case is currently not handled correctly by GDB. This is not
something that a compiler is likely to emit, but in my opinion there's
no reason why GDB should fail reading it.
The problem is that in partial_die_info::read and a few other places
where the same logic is replicated, the cu->ranges_base value,
containing the DW_AT_rnglists_base value, is wrongfully added to the
DW_AT_ranges value.
It is quite messy how to decide whether cu->ranges_base should be added
to the attribute's value or not. But to summarize, the only time we
want to add it is when the attribute comes from a pre-DWARF 5 split unit
file (a .dwo) [1]. In this case, the DW_AT_ranges attribute from the
split unit file will have form DW_FORM_sec_offset, pointing somewhere in
the linked file's .debug_ranges section. *But* it's not a "true"
DW_FORM_sec_offset, in that it's an offset relative to the beginning of
that CU's contribution in the section, not relative to the beginning of
the section. So in that case, and only that case, do we want to add the
ranges base value, which we found from the DW_AT_GNU_ranges_base
attribute on the skeleton unit.
Almost all instances of the DW_AT_ranges attribute will be found in the
split unit (on DW_TAG_subprogram, for example), and therefore need to
have the ranges base added. However, the DW_TAG_compile_unit DIE in the
skeleton may also have a DW_AT_ranges attribute. For that one, the
ranges base must not be added. Once the DIEs have been loaded in GDB,
however, the distinction between what's coming from the skeleton and
what's coming from the split unit is not clear. It is all merged in one
big happy tree. So how do we know if a given attribute comes from the
split unit or not?
We use the fact that in pre-DWARF 5 split DWARF, DW_AT_ranges is found
on the skeleton's DW_TAG_compile_unit (in the linked file) and never in
the split unit's DW_TAG_compile_unit. This is why you have this in
partial_die_info::read:
int need_ranges_base = (tag != DW_TAG_compile_unit
&& attr.form != DW_FORM_rnglistx);
However, with the corner case described above (where we have a
DW_AT_rnglists_base attribute and a DW_AT_ranges attribute of form
DW_FORM_sec_offset) the condition gets it wrong when it encounters an
attribute like DW_TAG_subprogram with a DW_AT_ranges attribute of
DW_FORM_sec_offset form: it thinks that it is necessary to add the base,
when it reality it is not.
The problem boils down to failing to differentiate these cases:
- a DW_AT_ranges attribute of form DW_FORM_sec_offset in a
pre-DWARF 5 split unit (in which case we need to add the base)
- a DW_AT_ranges attribute of form DW_FORM_sec_offset in a DWARF 5
non-split unit (in which case we must not add the base)
What makes it unnecessarily complex is that the cu->ranges_base field is
overloaded, used to hold the pre-DWARF 5, non-standard
DW_AT_GNU_ranges_base and the DWARF 5 DW_AT_rnglists_base. In reality,
these two are called "bases" but are not the same thing. The result is
that we need twisted conditions to try to determine whether or not we
should add the base to the attribute's value.
To fix it, split the field in two distinct fields. I renamed everything
related to the "old" ranges base to "gnu_ranges_base", to make it clear
that it's about the non-standard, pre-DWARF 5 thing. And everything
related to the DWARF 5 thing gets renamed "rnglists". I think it
becomes much easier to reason this way.
The issue described above gets fixed by the fact that the
DW_AT_rnglists_base value does not end up in cu->gnu_ranges_base, so
cu->gnu_ranges_base stays 0. The condition to determine whether
gnu_ranges_base should be added can therefore be simplified back to:
tag != DW_TAG_compile_unit
... as it was before rnglistx support was added.
Extend the gdb.dwarf2/rnglists-sec-offset.exp to cover this case. I
also extended the test case for loclists similarly, just to see if there
would be some similar problem. There wasn't, but I think it's not a bad
idea to test that case for loclists as well, so I left it in the patch.

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.
