Subject: [patch] Fix false warning: Shared library is missing debugging  information.
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:13:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100111151258.GA9354@host0.dyn.jankratochvil.net> (raw)

Hi,

since
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-cvs/2009-08/msg00134.html
	commit 28bc5797a9be8409c7f78881f93fff58c4e9d6ed
	Author: Doug Evans <dje@google.com>
GDB prints:
	(gdb) info sharedlibrary 
	From                To                  Syms Read   Shared Object Library
	0x000000362de00af0  0x000000362de18344  Yes (*)     /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
	0x000000362ea05390  0x000000362ea107c8  Yes (*)     /lib64/libpthread.so.0
	0x000000362e21e860  0x000000362e32597c  Yes (*)     /lib64/libc.so.6
	(*): Shared library is missing debugging information.
	(gdb) _

despite the system has full separate debug info files installed.

This "Shared library is missing debugging information." message was a response
on a wish by Pedro Alves:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-07/msg00086.html
	We do have a "Syms Read" column in info shared's output, maybe we
	should extend that from "Yes, No" -> "Yes,
	Sorry-I've-tried-but-didn't-find-any, No".

So the case when debug info has been found - although in a separate debug info
file - should be IMO the case "Yes" and not the case
"Sorry-I've-tried-but-didn't-find-any".

With the patch GDB now prints in the same case:
	(gdb) info sharedlibrary 
	From                To                  Syms Read   Shared Object Library
	0x000000362de00af0  0x000000362de18344  Yes         /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
	0x000000362ea05390  0x000000362ea107c8  Yes         /lib64/libpthread.so.0
	0x000000362e21e860  0x000000362e32597c  Yes         /lib64/libc.so.6
	(gdb) _


No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora12-linux-gnu.


Thanks,
Jan
