;; Out of memory is just an error, not fatal (uninitialized VLS vars, BZ 568248).

;;=push+jan: Inferior objects should be read in parts, then this patch gets obsoleted.

Hi,
|
|
|
|
unfortunately I see this problem reproducible only with the
|
|
archer-jankratochvil-vla branch (VLA = Variable Length Arrays - char[var]).
|
|
OTOH this branch I hopefully submit in some form for FSF GDB later.
|
|
|
|
In this case (a general problem but tested for example on Fedora 13 i686):
|
|
|
|
int
|
|
main (int argc, char **argv)
|
|
{
|
|
char a[argc];
|
|
return a[0];
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
(gdb) start
|
|
(gdb) print a
|
|
../../gdb/utils.c:1251: internal-error: virtual memory exhausted: can't allocate 4294951689 bytes.
|
|
|
|
It is apparently because boundary for the variable `a' is not initialized
|
|
there. Users notice it due to Eclipse-CDT trying to automatically display all
|
|
the local variables on each step.
|
|
|
|
Apparentl no regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu.
|
|
But is anone aware of the reasons to use internal_error there?
|
|
I find simple error as a perfectly reasonable there.
|
|
(history only tracks it since the initial import)
|
|
|
|
IIRC this idea has been discussed with Tom Tromey, not sure of its origin.
|
|
|
|
I understand it may be offtopic for FSF GDB but from some GDB crashes I am not
|
|
sure if it can happen only due to the VLA variables.
|
|
|
|
Thanks,
|
|
Jan
