DWARFv5: Handle DW_MACRO_define_strx and DW_MACRO_undef_strx macro entries.
GDB complaints "During symbol reading: unrecognized DW_MACFINO
opcode 0xb" with the testcase given below. Clang is emitting
DW_MACRO_define_strx and DW_MACRO_undef_strx entries in .debug_macro
section which are not supported in GDB. This patch handles them.
DW_MACRO_define_strx and DW_MACRO_undef_strx are added in DWARFv5.
They have two operands. The first operand encodes the line number of
the #define or #undef macro directive. The second operand identifies
a string; it is represented using an unsigned LEB128 encoded value,
which is interpreted as a zero-based index into an array of offsets
in the .debug_str_offsets section. This is as per the section 6.3.2.1
of Dwarf Debugging Information Format Version 5.
Test case used:
#define MAX_SIZE 10
int main(void)
{
int size = 0;
size = size + MAX_SIZE;
printf("\n The value of size is [%d]\n",size);
return 0;
}
clang -gdwarf-5 -fdebug-macro macro.c -o macro.out
Before the patch:
gdb/new_gdb/binutils-gdb/build/bin/gdb -q macro.out -ex "set complaints 1" -ex "start"
Reading symbols from macro.out...
During symbol reading: unrecognized DW_MACFINO opcode 0xb
Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x4004df: file macro.c, line 7.
Starting program: /home/nitika/workspace/macro.out

(gdb)
Tested by running the testsuite before and after the patch with
-gdwarf-5 and there is no increase in the number of test cases
that fails. Used clang 11.0.0.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2/macro.c (dwarf_decode_macro_bytes): Handle DW_MACRO_define_strx
and DW_MACRO_undef_strx.
(dwarf_decode_macros): Likewise
* dwarf2/read.c (dwarf_decode_macros): Pass str_offsets_base in the parameters
which is the value of DW_AT_str_offsets_base.
* dwarf2/macro.h (dwarf_decode_macros): Modify the definition to include
str_offsets_base.
