[PR gdb/27614] gdb-add-index fails on symlinks.
PR 27614 shows that gdb-add-index fails to generate the index when its argument is a symlink. The following one liner illustrates the reported problem: $ echo 'int main(){}'|gcc -g -x c -;ln -s a.out symlink;gdb-add-index symlink gdb-add-index: No index was created for symlink gdb-add-index: [Was there no debuginfo? Was there already an index?] $ ls -l -rwxr-xr-x 1 25712 Mar 19 23:05 a.out* -rw------- 1 8277 Mar 19 23:05 a.out.gdb-index lrwxrwxrwx 1 5 Mar 19 23:05 symlink -> a.out* GDB generates the .gdb-index file with a name that matches the name of the actual program (a.out.gdb-index here), not the symlink that references it. The remaining of the script is looking for a file named after the provided argument (would be 'symlink.gdb-index' in our example). gdb/ChangeLog: PR gdb/27614 * contrib/gdb-add-index.sh: Fix when called with a symlink as an argument. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: PR gdb/27614 * gdb.dwarf2/gdb-add-index-symlink.exp: New test.
