Fix PR 21337: segfault when re-reading symbols.
Fix issue exposed by commit 3e29f34. The basic issue is that section data referenced through an objfile pointer can also be referenced via the program-space data pointer, although via a separate mapping mechanism, which is set up by update_section_map. Thus once section data attached to an objfile pointer is released, the section map associated with the program-space data pointer must be marked dirty to ensure that update_section_map is called to prevent stale data being referenced. For the matter at hand this marking is being done via a call to objfiles_changed. Before commit 3e29f34 objfiles_changed could be called after all of the objfile pointers were processed in reread_symbols since section data references via the program-space data pointer would not occur in the calls of read_symbols performed by reread_symbols. With commit 3e29f34 MIPS target specific calls to find_pc_section were added to the code for DWARF information processing, which is called via read_symbols. Thus in reread_symbols the call to objfiles_changed needs to be called before calling read_symbols, otherwise stale section data can be referenced. Thanks to Luis Machado for providing text for the main comment associated with the change. gdb/ 2017-06-28 Doug Gilmore <Doug.Gilmore@imgtec.com> PR gdb/21337 * symfile.c (reread_symbols): Call objfiles_changed just before read_symbols. gdb/testsuite/ 2017-06-28 Doug Gilmore <Doug.Gilmore@imgtec.com> PR gdb/21337 * gdb.base/reread-readsym.exp: New file. * gdb.base/reread-readsym.c: New file.
