PR29573, addr2line doesn't display file/line for local symbols
The DWARF standard is clear that DW_AT_linkage_name is optional.
Compilers may not provide the attribute on functions and variables,
even though the language mangles names. g++ does not for local
variables and functions. Without DW_AT_linkage_name, mangled object
file symbols can't be directly matched against the source-level
DW_AT_name in DWARF info. One possibility is demangling the object
file symbols, but that comes with its own set of problems:
1) A demangler might not be available for the compiler/language.
2) Demangling doesn't give the source function name as stored in
DW_AT_name. Class and template parameters must be stripped at
least.
So this patch takes a simpler approach. A symbol matches DWARF info
if the DWARF address matches the symbol address, and if the symbol
name contains the DWARF name as a sub-string. Very likely the name
matching is entirely superfluous.
PR 29573
* dwarf.c (lookup_symbol_in_function_table): Match a symbol
containing the DWARF source name as a substring.
(lookup_symbol_in_variable_table): Likewise.
(_bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line_with_alt): If stash_find_line_fast
returns false, fall back to comp_unit_find_line.
