Make "list ambiguous" show symbol names too
Currently, with an ambiguous "list first,last", we get: (gdb) list bar,main Specified first line 'bar' is ambiguous: file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97 file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98 This commit makes gdb's output above a bit clearer by printing the symbol name as well: (gdb) list bar,main Specified first line 'bar' is ambiguous: file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97, symbol: "bar(A)" file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98, symbol: "bar(B)" And while at it, makes gdb print the symbol name when actually listing multiple locations too. I.e., before (with "set listsize 2"): (gdb) list bar file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97 96 97 int bar (A) { return 11; } file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98 97 int bar (A) { return 11; } 98 int bar (B) { return 22; } After: (gdb) list bar file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 97, symbol: "bar(A)" 96 97 int bar (A) { return 11; } file: "src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.cp/overload.cc", line number: 98, symbol: "bar(B)" 97 int bar (A) { return 11; } 98 int bar (B) { return 22; } Currently, the result of decoding a linespec loses information about the original symbol that was found. All we end up with is an address. This makes it difficult to find the original symbol again to get at its print name. Fix that by storing a pointer to the symbol in the sal. We already store the symtab and obj_section, so it feels like a natural progression to me. This avoids having to do any extra symbol lookup too. gdb/ChangeLog: 2017-09-20 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * cli/cli-cmds.c (list_command): Use print_sal_location. (print_sal_location): New function. (ambiguous_line_spec): Use print_sal_location. * linespec.c (symbol_to_sal): Record the symbol in the sal. * symtab.c (find_function_start_sal): Likewise. * symtab.h (symtab_and_line::symbol): New field. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2017-09-20 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.base/list-ambiguous.exp (test_list_ambiguous_symbol): Expect symbol names in gdb's output. * gdb.cp/overload.exp ("list all overloads"): Likewise.
