Compute proper length for dynamic types of TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF
This patch fixes gdb/21356 in which we hit an assertion in value_contents_bits_eq: (gdb) p container_object2 (gdb) p container_object2 $1 = {_container_member2 = 15, _vla_struct_object2 = {_some_member = 0, _vla_field = { ../../src/gdb/value.c:829: internal-error: \ int value_contents_bits_eq(const value*, int, const value*, int, int): \ Assertion `offset1 + length \ <= TYPE_LENGTH (val1->enclosing_type) * TARGET_CHAR_BIT' failed. This is happening because TYPE_LENGTH (val1->enclosing_type) is erroneously based on enclosing_type, which is a typedef, instead of the actual underlying type. This can be traced back to resolve_dynamic_struct, where the size of the type is computed: ... TYPE_FIELD_TYPE (resolved_type, i) = resolve_dynamic_type_internal (TYPE_FIELD_TYPE (resolved_type, i), &pinfo, 0); gdb_assert (TYPE_FIELD_LOC_KIND (resolved_type, i) == FIELD_LOC_KIND_BITPOS); new_bit_length = TYPE_FIELD_BITPOS (resolved_type, i); if (TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (resolved_type, i) != 0) new_bit_length += TYPE_FIELD_BITSIZE (resolved_type, i); else new_bit_length += (TYPE_LENGTH (TYPE_FIELD_TYPE (resolved_type, i)) * TARGET_CHAR_BIT); ... In this function, resolved_type is TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF which is not what we want to use to calculate the size of the actual field. This patch fixes this and the similar problem in resolve_dynamic_union. gdb/ChangeLog: 2020-06-11 Keith Seitz <keiths@redhat.com> PR gdb/21356 * gdbtypes.c (resolve_dynamic_union, resolve_dynamic_struct): Resolve typedefs for type length calculations. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2020-06-11 Keith Seitz <keiths@redhat.com> PR gdb/21356 * gdb.base/vla-datatypes.c (vla_factory): Add typedef for struct vla_struct.
