[gdb/symtab] Fix segfault in process_psymtab_comp_unit
When running test-case gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dummy-cu.exp without -readnow, we run
into:
...
(gdb) file outputs/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dummy-cu/dw2-dummy-cu^M
Reading symbols from outputs/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dummy-cu/dw2-dummy-cu...^M
ERROR: Couldn't load dw2-dummy-cu into GDB (eof).
...
The problem is that we're running into a segfault:
...
Thread 1 "gdb" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
process_psymtab_comp_unit (this_cu=0x2141090, per_objfile=0x1aa4140,
want_partial_unit=false, pretend_language=language_minimal)
at /home/vries/gdb_versions/devel/src/gdb/dwarf2/read.c:7023
7023 switch (reader.comp_unit_die->tag)
...
due to reader.comp_unit_die == nullptr:
...
(gdb) p reader.comp_unit_die
$1 = (die_info *) 0x0
...
Indeed, there's no CU DIE in the test-case:
...
$ readelf -wi outputs/gdb.dwarf2/dw2-dummy-cu/dw2-dummy-cu
Contents of the .debug_info section:
Compilation Unit @ offset 0x0:
Length: 0x7 (32-bit)
Version: 2
Abbrev Offset: 0x0
Pointer Size: 4
$
...
Fix this by handling reader.comp_unit_die == nullptr in
process_psymtab_comp_unit.
Update the test-case to trigger this PR, as per PR27920 - "[gdb/testsuite]
hardcoding -readnow skips testing of partial symbols".
Tested on x86_64-linux.
