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.
