Subject: gdb-rhbz1773651-gdb-index-internal-error.patch

;; Backport upstream patch which prevents internal error when
;; generating a gdb-index file (RH BZ 1773651).

Throw error when creating an overly large gdb-index file

The header in a .gdb_index section uses 32-bit unsigned offsets to
refer to other areas of the section.  Thus, there is a size limit of
2^32-1 which is currently unaccounted for by GDB's code for outputting
these sections.

At the moment, when GDB creates an overly large section, it will exit
abnormally due to an internal error, which is caused by a failed
assert in assert_file_size, which in turn is called from
write_gdbindex_1, both of which are in gdb/dwarf2/index-write.c.

This is what happens when that assert fails:

$ gdb -q -nx -iex 'set auto-load no' -iex 'set debuginfod enabled off' -ex file ./libgraph_tool_inference.so -ex "save gdb-index `pwd`/"
Reading symbols from ./libgraph_tool_inference.so...
No executable file now.
Discard symbol table from `libgraph_tool_inference.so'? (y or n) n
Not confirmed.
../../gdb/dwarf2/index-write.c:1069: internal-error: assert_file_size: Assertion `file_size == expected_size' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.

---------------------
../../gdb/dwarf2/index-write.c:1069: internal-error: assert_file_size: Assertion `file_size == expected_size' failed.

This problem was encountered while building the python-graph-tool
package on Fedora.  The Fedora bugzilla bug can be found here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1773651

This commit prevents the internal error from occurring by calling error()
when the file size exceeds 2^32-1.

Using a gdb built with this commit, I now see this behavior instead:

$ gdb -q -nx -iex 'set auto-load no' -iex 'set debuginfod enabled off' -ex file ./libgraph_tool_inference.so -ex "save gdb-index `pwd`/"
Reading symbols from ./libgraph_tool_inference.so...
No executable file now.
Discard symbol table from `/mesquite2/fedora-bugs/1773651/libgraph_tool_inference.so'? (y or n) n
Not confirmed.
Error while writing index for `/mesquite2/fedora-bugs/1773651/libgraph_tool_inference.so': gdb-index maximum file size of 4294967295 exceeded
(gdb)

I wish I could provide a test case, but due to the sizes of both the
input and output files, I think that testing resources would be
strained or exceeded in many environments.

My testing on Fedora 38 shows no regressions.
