0 gdb 13.1 crashes while running the rust compiler's debugger tests.
1 The crash has a number of causes.
2
3 First, the rust compiler still uses the C++-like _Z mangling, but with
4 its own twist -- some hex digits added to the end of a symbol. So,
5 while gdb finds the correct name of "main":
6
7 (top-gdb) p name
8 $13 = 0x292e0c0 "rustc_gdb_1031745::main"
9
10 It isn't found in the minsyms, because C++ demangling yields:
11
12 [99] t 0x90c0 _ZN17rustc_gdb_10317454main17h5b5be7fe16a97225E section .text rustc_gdb_1031745::main::h5b5be7fe16a97225 zko06yobckx336v
13
14 This could perhaps be fixed. I also filed a new PR to suggest
15 preferring the linkage name of the main program.
16
17 Next, the rust compiler emits both a DW_TAG_subprogram and a
18 DW_TAG_namespace for "main". This happens because the file is named
19 "main.rs" -- i.e., the bug is specific to the source file name. The
20 crash also seems to require the nested function inside of 'main', at
21 least for me. The namespace always is generated, but perhaps this
22 changes the ordering in the DWARF.
23
24 When inside_main_func looks up the main symbol, it finds the namespace
25 symbol rather than the function. (I filed a bug about fixing gdb's
26 symbol tables -- long overdue.)
27
28 Meanwhile, as I think it's important to fix this crash sooner rather
29 than later, this patch changes inside_main_func to check that the
30 symbol that is found is LOC_BLOCK. This perhaps should have been done
31 in the first place, anyway.
