PR python/20190 - compute TLS symbol without a frame
PR python/20190 arose from an exception I noticed when trying to use the Python unwinder for Spider Monkey in Firefox. The problem is that the unwinder wants to examine the value of a thread-local variable. However, sympy_value rejects this because symbol_read_needs_frame returns true for a TLS variable. This problem arose once before, though in a different context: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11803 At the time Pedro and Daniel pointed out a simpler way to fix that bug (see links in 20190 if you are interested); but for this new bug I couldn't think of a similar fix and ended up implementing Daniel's other suggestion: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-07/msg00393.html That is, this patch makes it possible to detect whether a symbol needs a specific frame, or whether it just needs the inferior to have registers. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24. 2016-07-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * symtab.c (register_symbol_computed_impl): Update. PR python/20190: * value.h (symbol_read_needs): Declare.
