[dwarf] Mark all functions as prototyped except C functions.
This makes sure that the types of the arguments are taken into account when performing an inferior function call to a non-C (or C-like) function. In particular, this makes sure that the arguments are appropriatly converted to the correct type. For instance, on x86_64-linux, with the following Ada code: procedure Set_Float (F : Float) is begin Global_Float := F; end Set_Float; The following sequence shows that Float arguments are incorrectly passed (Ada's Float type is the equivalent of type "float" in C): (gdb) call set_float (2.0) (gdb) print global_float $1 = 0.0 Putting a breakpoint inside set_float to inspect the value of register xmm0 gives the first hint of the problem: (gdb) p $xmm0 $2 = (v4_float => (0 => 0.0, 2.0, 0.0, 0.0), v2_double => (0 => 2.0, 0.0), [...] It shows that the argument was passed as a double. The code responsible for doing appropriate type conversions for the arguments (value_arg_coerce) found that our function was not prototyped, and thus could not use typing information for the arguments. Instead, it defaulted to the value of "set coerce-float-to-double", which by default is true, to determine the argument type. This patch fixes the problem by setting the PROTOTYPE flag for all functions of any language except C and Objective C. gdb/ChangeLog: * dwarf2read.c (prototyped_function_p): New function. (read_subroutine_type): Use it. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.ada/float_param: New testcase.
