Subject: [PATCH] cc-with-tweaks: show dwz stderr and check exit code
Date: Wed, 08 May 2019 16:00:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190508160012.32596-1-simon.marchi@efficios.com> (raw)

When running the gdb.base/index-cache.exp test case with the
cc-with-dwz-m board, I noticed that the final executable didn't actually
contain a .gnu_debugaltlink section with the name of the external dwz
file:

    $ readelf --debug-dump=links testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/index-cache/index-cache
    * empty *

Running dwz by hand, I realized it's because dwz complains that the
output .debug_info section is empty and fails:

    $ gcc ~/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/index-cache.c -g3 -O0 -o a && cp a b
    $ dwz -m foo a b
    dwz: foo: .debug_info section not present
    $ echo $?
    1

This is because index-cache.c is trivial (just an empty main) and dwz
doesn't find anything to factor out to the dwz file. [1]

I think that cc-with-tweaks should fail in this scenario: if the user
asks for an external dwz file to be generated (the -m flag), then it
should be an error if cc-with-tweaks doesn't manage to produce an
executable with the proper link to this external dwz file.  Otherwise,
the test runs with a regular non-dwzified executable, which gives a
false sense of security about whether the feature under test works with
dwzified executables.

So this patch adds checks for that after invoking dwz.  It also removes
the 2>&1 to allow the error message to be printed like so:

    Running /home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/index-cache.exp ...
    gdb compile failed, dwz: /home/smarchi/build/binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/index-cache/index-cache.dwz: .debug_info section not present

With this patch, fewer tests will pass than before with the
cc-with-dwz and cc-with-dwz-m boards, but those were false positives
anyway.

[1] Note that dwz has been patched by Tom de Vries to work correctly in
this case, so we can use dwz master to run the test:
