Subject: [RFA]: Fix bug gdb/321
Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2002 11:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020711205208.U21857@cygbert.vinschen.de> (raw)

Hi,

the following patch seems to fix the bug described in gdb/321:

http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gdb&pr=321

Basically the problem is that gdb's backtrace reports the wrong calling
function if a function ends in a call to abort() (or another noreturn func)
under some conditions.  The bug report suggests to use a by one decremented
pc when evaluating the function.  The following patch does exactly this by
using the return value of frame_address_in_block() instead of frame->pc in
calls which evaluate symbols.

Corinna

ChangeLog:

        * stack.c (print_frame): Use result of frame_address_in_block()
        instead of fi->pc when evaluating symbols.
        (backtrace_command_1): Ditto.
