Subject: [patch] Fix failed gdb_assert due to the PIE patchset
Hi,
the PIE patchset brought in an occasionally failing gdb_assert (according to
Fedora ABRT bugreports).
solib-svr4.c:600: internal-error: scan_dyntag: Assertion `target_section < current_target_sections->sections_end' failed.
Now I understand it as generally current_target_sections are about target-side
data while symbols are the GDB side and there is only loose relation of those.
ABFD can be from multiple places acting for multiple purposes as parsed by
elf_lookup_lib_symbol:
exec_bfd:
It cannot be from exec_one - this BFD has no associated objfile to
pass to symfile_objfile. OK.
symfile_objfile:
It gets translated by elf_lookup_lib_symbol into exec_bfd which
represents the target data. OK.
so_list's objfile's separate_debug_objfile file:
gdb_assert-forbidden as input to elf_lookup_lib_symbol. OK.
so_list's objfile's main file:
update_solib_list must have called add_target_sections. OK.
objfile's separate_debug_objfile file:
gdb_assert-forbidden as input to elf_lookup_lib_symbol. OK.
objfile's main file (if it has no associated so_list):
Such ABFD from add_symbol_file_command has no add_target_sections
called. Still it can have current context BLOCK which crashes
scan_dyntag. BUG.
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora12-linux-gnu.
The patch mostly reverts the PIE part there.
OK to check in?
Sorry,
Jan

* solib-svr4.c (scan_dyntag): New variable dyn_addr. Replace gdb_assert
by a conditional setting DYN_ADDR. Use DYN_ADDR.
* config/djgpp/fnchange.lst: Add translations for
symbol-without-target_section.exp and symbol-without-target_section.c.
