DWARF: add DW_AT_location for global decls with DECL_VALUE_EXPR
In GNAT, we materialize renamings that cannot be described in standard DWARF as synthetic variables that describe how to fetch the renamed object. Look for "___XR" in gcc/ada/exp_dbug.ads for more details about this convention. In order to have a location for these variables in the debug info (GDB requires it not to discard the variable) but also to avoid allocating runtime space for them, we make these variable hold a DECL_VALUE_EXPR tree. However, since GCC 7, the DWARF back-end no longer generates a DW_AT_location attribute for those. This patch is an attempt to restore this attribute. gcc/ * dwarf2out.c (dwarf2out_late_global_decl): Add locations for symbols that hold a DECL_VALUE_EXPR. gcc/testsuite/ * debug12.adb, debug12.ads: New testcase.
