Add support for DW_OP_GNU_variable_value
This patch adds support for DW_OP_GNU_variable_value to GDB. Jakub Jelinek provides a fairly expansive discussion of this DWARF expression opcode in his GCC patch... https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-02/msg01499.html It has also been proposed for addition to the DWARF Standard: http://www.dwarfstd.org/ShowIssue.php?issue=161109.2 If compiled with a suitable version of GCC, the test case associated with GCC Bug 77589 uses DW_OP_GNU_variable_value in a DW_AT_byte_stride expression. Here's a link to the bug: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=77589 This is what the DWARF looks like. Look at the last line, which has the DW_AT_byte_stride expression: <2><e1>: Abbrev Number: 12 (DW_TAG_variable) <e2> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x115): span.0 <e6> DW_AT_type : <0x2e> <ea> DW_AT_artificial : 1 <ea> DW_AT_location : 3 byte block: 91 b0 7f (DW_OP_fbreg: -80) ... <2><178>: Abbrev Number: 18 (DW_TAG_subrange_type) <179> DW_AT_lower_bound : 4 byte block: 97 23 20 6 (DW_OP_push_object_address; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 32; DW_OP_deref) <17e> DW_AT_upper_bound : 4 byte block: 97 23 28 6 (DW_OP_push_object_address; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 40; DW_OP_deref) <183> DW_AT_byte_stride : 10 byte block: 97 23 18 6 fd e1 0 0 0 1e (DW_OP_push_object_address; DW_OP_plus_uconst: 24; DW_OP_deref; DW_OP_GNU_variable_value: <0xe1>; DW_OP_mul) A patch to readelf, which I'm also submitting, is required to do this decoding. I found that GDB gave me the correct answer for "p c40pt(2)" once I (correctly) implemented DW_OP_GNU_variable_value. I also have test case (later in this series) which uses the DWARF assembler and, therefore, do not rely on having a compiler with this support. gdb/ChangeLog: * dwarf2expr.h (struct dwarf_expr_context): Add virtual method dwarf_variable_value. * dwarf2-frame.c (class dwarf_expr_executor): Add override for dwarf_variable_value. * dwarf2loc.c (class dwarf_evaluate_loc_desc): Likewise. (class symbol_needs_eval_context): Likewise. (indirect_synthetic_pointer): Add forward declaration. (sect_variable_value): New function. (dwarf2_compile_expr_to_ax): Add case for DW_OP_GNU_variable_value. * dwarf2expr.c (dwarf_expr_context::execute_stack_op): Add case for DW_OP_GNU_variable_value.
