The speed optimization from commit
5f6cac4085c95c5339b9549dc06d4f9184184fa6
made GDB skip reloading all symbols when the same symbol file is reloaded.
As a result, ARM targets only read the mapping symbols the first time we
load a symbol file. When reloaded, the speed optimization above will
cause an early return and gdbarch_record_special_symbol won't be called to
save mapping symbol data, which in turn affects disassembling of thumb
instructions.
First load and correct disassemble output:
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x0000821c <+0>: bx pc
0x0000821e <+2>: nop
0x00008220 <+4>: mov r0, #0
0x00008224 <+8>: bx lr
Second load and incorrect disassemble output:
Dump of assembler code for function main:
0x0000821c <+0>: bx pc
0x0000821e <+2>: nop
0x00008220 <+4>: movs r0, r0
0x00008222 <+6>: b.n 0x8966
0x00008224 <+8>: vrhadd.u16 d14, d14, d31
This happens because the mapping symbol data is stored in an objfile_key-based
container, and that data isn't preserved across the two symbol loading
operations.
The following patch fixes this by storing the mapping symbol data in a
bfd_key-based container, which doesn't change as long as the bfd is the same.
I've also added a new test to verify the correct disassemble output.
