dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits
Does anybody have an opinion about this? It would be nice to unbreak the "default" build with clang (i.e. without passing special -Wno-error= flags). Here's a version rebased on today's master. From 47d28075117fa2ddb93584ec50881e33777a85e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@ericsson.com> Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2017 22:48:18 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] dwarf: Make sect_offset 64-bits Compiling with Clang 6 shows these errors: /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26610:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare] if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32)) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /home/emaisin/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/dwarf2read.c:26618:43: error: result of comparison of constant 4294967296 with expression of type 'typename std::underlying_type<sect_offset>::type' (a ka 'unsigned int') is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare] if (to_underlying (per_cu.sect_off) >= (static_cast<uint64_t> (1) << 32)) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The code in question checks if there is any offset exceeding 32 bits, and therefore if we need to use the 64-bit DWARF format when writing the .debug_names section. The type we use currently to represent section offsets is an unsigned int (32-bits), which means a value of this type will never exceed 32 bits, hence the errors above. There are many signs that we want to support 64-bits DWARF (although I haven't tested), such as: - We correctly read initial length fields (read_initial_length) - We take that into account when reading offsets (read_offset_1) - The check_dwarf64_offsets function However, I don't see how it can work if sect_offset is a 32-bits type. Every time we record a section offset, we risk truncating the value. And if a file uses the 64-bit DWARF format, it's most likely because there are such offset values that overflow 32 bits. Because of this, I think the way forward is to change sect_offset to be a uint64_t. It will be able to represent any offset, regardless of the bitness of the DWARF info. This patch was regtested on the buildbot. gdb/ChangeLog: * gdbtypes.h (sect_offset): Change type to uint64_t.
