Handle field with dynamic bit offset
I discovered that GCC emitted incorrect DWARF for the test case
included in this patch. Eric wrote a fix for GCC, but then he found
that gdb crashed on the resulting file.
This test has a field that is at a non-constant bit offset from the
start of the type. DWARF 5 does not allow for this situation (I've
sent a report to the DWARF list), but DWARF 3 did allow for this via a
combination of an expression for the byte offset and then the use of
DW_AT_bit_offset. This looks like:
<5><117a>: Abbrev Number: 17 (DW_TAG_member)
<117b> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x1959): another_field
...
<1188> DW_AT_bit_offset : 6
<1189> DW_AT_data_member_location: 6 byte block: 99 3d 1 0 0 22 (DW_OP_call4: <0x1193>; DW_OP_plus)
...
<3><1193>: Abbrev Number: 2 (DW_TAG_dwarf_procedure)
<1194> DW_AT_location : 15 byte block: 97 94 1 37 1a 32 1e 23 7 38 1b 31 1c 23 3 (DW_OP_push_object_address; DW_OP_deref_size: 1; DW_OP_lit7; DW_OP_and; DW_OP_lit2; DW_OP_mul; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 7; DW_OP_lit8; DW_OP_div; DW_OP_lit1; DW_OP_minus; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 3)
Now, that combination is not fully general, in that the bit offset
must be a constant -- only the byte offset may really vary. However,
I couldn't come up with a situation where full generality is needed,
mainly because GNAT won't seem to pack fields into the padding of a
variable-length array.
Meanwhile, the reason for the gdb crash is that the code handling
DW_AT_bit_offset assumes that the byte offset is a constant. This
causes an assertion failure.
This patch arranges for DW_AT_bit_offset to be applied during field
resolution, when needed.
