Fix PR c++/21323: GDB thinks char16_t and char32_t are signed in C++
While the C++ standard says that char16_t and char32_t are unsigned types:
Types char16_t and char32_t denote distinct types with the same size,
signedness, and alignment as uint_least16_t and uint_least32_t,
respectively, in <cstdint>, called the underlying types.
... gdb treats them as signed currently:
(gdb) p (char16_t)-1
$1 = -1 u'\xffff'
There are actually two places in gdb that hardcode these types:
- gdbtypes.c:gdbtypes_post_init, when creating the built-in types,
seemingly used by the "x /s" command (judging from commit 9a22f0d0).
- dwarf2read.c, when reading base types with DW_ATE_UTF encoding
(which is what is used for these types, when compiling for C++11 and
up). Despite the comment, the type created does end up used.
Both places need fixing. But since I couldn't tell why dwarf2read.c
needs to create a new type, I've made it use the per-arch built-in
types instead, so that the types are only created once per arch
instead of once per objfile. That seems to work fine.
While writting the test, I noticed that the C++ language parser isn't
actually aware of these built-in types, so if you try to use them
without a program that uses them, you get:
(gdb) set language c++
(gdb) ptype char16_t
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb) ptype u"hello"
No type named char16_t.
(gdb) p u"hello"
No type named char16_t.
That's fixed by simply adding a couple entries to C++'s built-in types
array in c-lang.c. With that, we get the expected:
(gdb) ptype char16_t
type = char16_t
(gdb) ptype u"hello"
type = char16_t [6]
(gdb) p u"hello"
$1 = u"hello"
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-12 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
PR c++/21323
* c-lang.c (cplus_primitive_types) <cplus_primitive_type_char16_t,
cplus_primitive_type_char32_t>: New enum values.
(cplus_language_arch_info): Register cplus_primitive_type_char16_t
and cplus_primitive_type_char32_t.
* dwarf2read.c (read_base_type) <DW_ATE_UTF>: If bit size is 16 or
32, use the archtecture's built-in type for char16_t and char32_t,
respectively. Otherwise, fallback to init_integer_type as before,
but make the type unsigned, and issue a complaint.
* gdbtypes.c (gdbtypes_post_init): Make char16_t and char32_t unsigned.
