Subject: [RFA] Remove useless init_psymbol_list calls.
Date: Fri, 04 Dec 2009 11:53:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091204115243.GA5611@ulanbator.act-europe.fr> (raw)
Hi,
When sym_read method is called with mainline == 1, the psymtab is already
empty:
sym_read is called from:
* symfile.c:reread_symbols. But the psymtab is already cleared and
it is called with mainline == 0.
* symfile.c:syms_from_objfile, which is called from:
* rs6000-nat.c:objfile_symbol_add but called with mainline == 0.
* symfile.c:symbol_file_add_with_addrs_or_offsets which allocates a new
objfile so the psymtab is empty.
Tristan.
2009-12-02 Tristan Gingold <gingold@adacore.com>
* dbxread.c (dbx_symfile_read): No need to test mainline to call
init_psymbol_list.
* xcoffread.c (xcoff_initial_scan): Ditto;
* coffread.c (coff_symfile_read): Remove call to init_psymbol_list.
* elfread.c (elf_symfile_read): Ditto.
* machoread.c (macho_symfile_read): Ditto.
