Hi, We decided to revert my earlier patch for c++/16253 (variable name/tag name collision) because Doug reports that it causes a sizable performance regression: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16253 This patch reverts the whole thing. Tested on Fedora 20, x86_64 and native-gdbserver. Keith ChangeLog 2014-06-05 Keith Seitz Revert: PR c++/16253 * ada-lang.c (ada_symbol_matches_domain): Moved here and renamed from symbol_matches_domain in symtab.c. All local callers of symbol_matches_domain updated. (standard_lookup): If DOMAIN is VAR_DOMAIN and no symbol is found, search STRUCT_DOMAIN. (ada_find_any_type_symbol): Do not search STRUCT_DOMAIN independently. standard_lookup will do that automatically. * cp-namespace.c (cp_lookup_symbol_nonlocal): Explain when/why VAR_DOMAIN searches may return a STRUCT_DOMAIN match. (cp_lookup_symbol_in_namespace): Likewise. If no VAR_DOMAIN symbol is found, search STRUCT_DOMAIN. (cp_lookup_symbol_exports): Explain when/why VAR_DOMAIN searches may return a STRUCT_DOMAIN match. (lookup_symbol_file): Search for the class name in STRUCT_DOMAIN. * cp-support.c: Include language.h. (inspect_type): Explicitly search STRUCT_DOMAIN before searching VAR_DOMAIN. * psymtab.c (match_partial_symbol): Compare the requested domain with the symbol's domain directly. (lookup_partial_symbol): Likewise. * symtab.c (lookup_symbol_in_language): Explain when/why VAR_DOMAIN searches may return a STRUCT_DOMAIN match. If no VAR_DOMAIN symbol is found, search STRUCT_DOMAIN for appropriate languages. (symbol_matches_domain): Renamed `ada_symbol_matches_domain' and moved to ada-lang.c (lookup_block_symbol): Explain that this function only returns symbol matching the requested DOMAIN. Compare the requested domain with the symbol's domain directly. (iterate_over_symbols): Compare the requested domain with the symbol's domain directly. * symtab.h (symbol_matches_domain): Remove. testsuite/ChangeLog 2014-06-05 Keith Seitz Revert: PR c++/16253 * gdb.cp/var-tag.cc: New file. * gdb.cp/var-tag.exp: New file. * gdb.dwarf2/dw2-ada-ffffffff.exp: Set the language to C++. * gdb.dwarf2/dw2-anon-mptr.exp: Likewise. * gdb.dwarf2/dw2-double-set-die-type.exp: Likewise. * gdb.dwarf2/dw2-inheritance.exp: Likewise.
