X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=184dcd81c7972c3fd3557ec4a04064529ee3ca8d;p=binutils-gdb.git gdb: Fix reduce/reduce conflicts for qualifier_seq_noopt in the C parser. This fixes a problem with GDB's address space qualifier parsing. GDB uses '@' as a way to express an address space in expression evaluation. This can currently lead to a crash for "Add support for the __flash qualifier on AVR" (487d975399dfcb2bb2f0998a7d12bd62acdd9fa1), the only user I am aware of. Program: ~~~ const __flash char data_in_flash = 0xab; int main (void) { const __flash char *pointer_to_flash = &data_in_flash; } ~~~ Before: ~~~ (gdb) p data_in_flash $1 = -85 '\253' (gdb) p *(const char * @flash) pointer_to_flash $2 = -85 '\253' (gdb) p *(@flash const char *) pointer_to_flash type-stack.c:201: internal-error: type* type_stack::follow_types(type*): unrecognized tp_ value in follow_types A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) ~~~ After: ~~~ (gdb) p data_in_flash $1 = -85 '\253' (gdb) p *(const char *) pointer_to_flash $2 = 0 '\000' (gdb) p *(const char * @flash) pointer_to_flash $3 = -85 '\253' (gdb) p *(@flash const char *) pointer_to_flash $4 = 0 '\000' (gdb) ~~~ Note that how the binding of this qualifier is interpreted and resolved for an address/pointer is target specific. Hence only the prepended qualifier works for AVR, even if it seems syntactically incorrect. I won't change this for AVR, as I am not familiar with that target. Bison now also complains about less conflicts: Before: YACC c-exp.c gdb/gdb/c-exp.y: warning: 153 shift/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-sr] gdb/gdb/c-exp.y: warning: 70 reduce/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-rr] After: YACC c-exp.c gdb/gdb/c-exp.y: warning: 60 shift/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-sr] gdb/gdb/c-exp.y: warning: 69 reduce/reduce conflicts [-Wconflicts-rr] gdb/ChangeLog: 2021-04-20 Felix Willgerodt * c-exp.y (qualifier_seq_noopt): Replace qualifier_seq with qualifier_seq_noopt. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index 8692c0f8c43..a601300e955 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2021-04-20 Felix Willgerodt + + * c-exp.y (qualifier_seq_noopt): Replace qualifier_seq with + qualifier_seq_noopt. + 2021-04-20 Felix Willgerodt * c-exp.y (single_qualifier): Handle UNKNOWN_CPP_NAME. diff --git a/gdb/c-exp.y b/gdb/c-exp.y index 3e416f4e2c7..93b10f05b7d 100644 --- a/gdb/c-exp.y +++ b/gdb/c-exp.y @@ -1276,7 +1276,7 @@ single_qualifier: qualifier_seq_noopt: single_qualifier - | qualifier_seq single_qualifier + | qualifier_seq_noopt single_qualifier ; qualifier_seq:
