Ignore __fu<digits>__ symbols from COFF symbol tables
The debugger sometimes prints strange function names for given addresses. For instance, with the following source code... 4 procedure Foo is 5 A : Integer; 6 begin 7 Do_Nothing (A'Address); 8 end Foo; ... we can see... (gdb) info line 5 Line 5 of "foo.adb" starts at address 0x4017ca <_ada_foo+6> and ends at 0x4017d2 <_fu29__system__scalar_values__is_is4+7>. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ _fu29__system__scalar_values__is_is4 is an artificial symbol generated by the linker, and interferes with the pc-to-symbol resolution. There isn't much in the general minimal_symbol data that could help us identify them, so this patch changes the COFF reader to simply ignore them. gdb/ChangeLog: * coffread.c (is_import_fixup_symbol): New function. (record_minimal_symbol): Use is_import_fixup_symbol to detect import fixup symbols, and discard them. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/win_fu_syms: New testcase.
