Fission support for multiple CUs per DWO file
In some cases a compiler may produce a single object file (& thus single DWO file) representing multiple source files. The most common example of this is in whole program optimization (such as LLVM's LTO). Fission may still be a beneficial feature to use here - to avoid the need to read/link the debug info with system libraries and the like. This change adds basic support for multiple CUs in a single DWO file to support LLVM's output in this situation. There is still outstanding work to design and implement a solution for cross-CU references (usually using DW_FORM_ref_addr) in this scenario. For now LLVM works around this by duplicating DIEs rather than making cross-CU references in DWO files. This degrades debugger behavior/quality especially for file-local entities. 2017-07-06 David Blaikie <dblaikie@gmail.com> * dwarf2read.c (struct dwo_file): Use a htab of dwo_unit* (rather than a singular dwo_unit*) to support multiple CUs in the same way that multiple TUs are supported. (create_cus_hash_table): Replace create_dwo_cu with a function for parsing multiple CUs from a DWO file. (open_and_init_dwo_file): Use create_cus_hash_table rather than create_dwo_cu. (lookup_dwo_cutu): Lookup CU in the hash table in the dwo_file with htab_find, rather than comparing the signature to a singleton CU in the dwo_file. 2017-07-06 David Blaikie <dblaikie@gmail.com> * gdb.dwarf2/fission-multi-cu.S: Test containing multiple CUs in a DWO, built from fissiont-multi-cu{1,2}.c. * gdb.dwarf2/fission-multi-cu.exp: Test similar to fission-base.exp, except putting 'main' and 'func' in separate CUs in the same DWO file. * gdb.dwarf2/fission-multi-cu1.c: First CU for the multi-CU-single-DWO test. * gdb.dwarf2/fission-multi-cu2.c: Second CU in the multi-CU-single-DWO test.
