libctf: adding CU mappings should be idempotent
When CTF finds conflicting types, it usually shoves each definition into a CTF dictionary named after the compilation unit. The intent of the obscure "cu-mapped link" feature is to allow you to implement custom linkers that shove the definitions into other, more coarse-grained units (say, one per kernel module, even if a module consists of more than one compilation unit): conflicting types within one of these larger components are hidden from name lookup so you can only look up (an arbitrary one of) them by name, but can still be found by chasing type graph links and are still fully deduplicated. You do this by calling ctf_link_add_cu_mapping (fp, "CU name", "bigger lump name"), repeatedly, with different "CU name"s: the ctf_link() following that will put all conflicting types found in "CU name"s sharing a "bigger lump name" into a child dict in an archive member named "bigger lump name". So it's clear enough what happens if you call it repeatedly with the same "bigger lump name" more than once, because that's the whole point of it: but what if you call it with the same "CU name" repeatedly? ctf_link_add_cu_mapping (fp, "CU name", "bigger lump name"); ctf_link_add_cu_mapping (fp, "CU name", "other name"); This is meant to be the same as just doing the second of these, as if the first was never called. Alas, this isn't what happens, and what you get is instead a bit of an inconsistent mess: more or less, the first takes precedence, which is the exact opposite of what we wanted. Fix this to work the right way round. (I plan to add support for CU-mapped links to GNU ld, mainly so that we can properly *test* this machinery.) libctf/ChangeLog: * ctf-link.c (ctf_create_per_cu): Note the behaviour of repeatedly adding FROMs. (ctf_link_add_cu_mapping): Implement that behavour.
