| -- Encoding and Qualification of Names of Entities -- |
| ----------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- This section describes how the names of entities are encoded in |
| -- the generated debugging information. |
| |
| -- An entity in Ada has a name of the form X.Y.Z ... E where X,Y,Z |
| -- are the enclosing scopes (not including Standard at the start). |
| |
| -- The encoding of the name follows this basic qualified naming scheme, |
| -- where the encoding of individual entity names is as described in |
| -- Namet (i.e. in particular names present in the original source are |
| -- folded to all lower case, with upper half and wide characters encoded |
| -- as described in Namet). Upper case letters are used only for entities |
| -- generated by the compiler. |
| |
| -- There are two cases, global entities, and local entities. In more |
| -- formal terms, local entities are those which have a dynamic enclosing |
| -- scope, and global entities are at the library level, except that we |
| -- always consider procedures to be global entities, even if they are |
| -- nested (that's because at the debugger level a procedure name refers |
| -- to the code, and the code is indeed a global entity, including the |
| -- case of nested procedures.) In addition, we also consider all types |
| -- to be global entities, even if they are defined within a procedure. |
| |
| -- The reason for full treating all type names as global entities is |
| -- that a number of our type encodings work by having related type |
| -- names, and we need the full qualification to keep this unique. |
| |
| -- For global entities, the encoded name includes all components of the |
| -- fully expanded name (but omitting Standard at the start). For example, |
| -- if a library level child package P.Q has an embedded package R, and |
| -- there is an entity in this embdded package whose name is S, the encoded |
| -- name will include the components p.q.r.s. |
| |
| -- For local entities, the encoded name only includes the components |
| -- up to the enclosing dynamic scope (other than a block). At run time, |
| -- such a dynamic scope is a subprogram, and the debugging formats know |
| -- about local variables of procedures, so it is not necessary to have |
| -- full qualification for such entities. In particular this means that |
| -- direct local variables of a procedure are not qualified. |
| |
| -- As an example of the local name convention, consider a procedure V.W |
| -- with a local variable X, and a nested block Y containing an entity |
| -- Z. The fully qualified names of the entities X and Z are: |
| |
| -- V.W.X |
| -- V.W.Y.Z |
| |
| -- but since V.W is a subprogram, the encoded names will end up |
| -- encoding only |
| |
| -- x |
| -- y.z |
| |
| -- The separating dots are translated into double underscores. |
| |
| -- Note: there is one exception, which is that on IRIX, for workshop |
| -- back compatibility, dots are retained as dots. In the rest of this |
| -- document we assume the double underscore encoding. |
| |
| ----------------------------- |
| -- Handling of Overloading -- |
| ----------------------------- |
| |
| -- The above scheme is incomplete with respect to overloaded |
| -- subprograms, since overloading can legitimately result in a |
| -- case of two entities with exactly the same fully qualified names. |
| -- To distinguish between entries in a set of overloaded subprograms, |
| -- the encoded names are serialized by adding one of the two suffixes: |
| |
| -- $n (dollar sign) |
| -- __nn (two underscores) |
| |
| -- where nn is a serial number (1 for the first overloaded function, |
| -- 2 for the second, etc.). The former suffix is used when a dollar |
| -- sign is a valid symbol on the target machine and the latter is |
| -- used when it is not. No suffix need appear on the encoding of |
| -- the first overloading of a subprogram. |
| |
| -- These names are prefixed by the normal full qualification. So |
| -- for example, the third instance of the subprogram qrs in package |
| -- yz would have one of the two names: |
| |
| -- yz__qrs$3 |
| -- yz__qrs__3 |
| |
| -- The serial number always appears at the end as shown, even in the |
| -- case of subprograms nested inside overloaded subprograms, and only |
| -- when the named subprogram is overloaded. For example, consider |
| -- the following situation: |
| |
| -- package body Yz is |
| -- procedure Qrs is -- Encoded name is yz__qrs |
| -- procedure Tuv is ... end; -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv |
| -- begin ... end Qrs; |
| |
| -- procedure Qrs (X: Integer) is -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__2 |
| -- procedure Tuv is ... end; -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv |
| -- -- (not yz__qrs__2__tuv). |
| -- procedure Tuv (X: INTEGER) -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv__2 |
| -- begin ... end Tuv; |
| |
| -- procedure Tuv (X: INTEGER) -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv__3 |
| -- begin ... end Tuv; |
| -- begin ... end Qrs; |
| -- end Yz; |
| |
| -- This example also serves to illustrate, a case in which the |
| -- debugging data are currently ambiguous. The two parameterless |
| -- versions of Yz.Qrs.Tuv have the same encoded names in the |
| -- debugging data. However, the actual external symbols (which |
| -- linkers use to resolve references) will be modified with an |
| -- an additional suffix so that they do not clash. Thus, there will |
| -- be cases in which the name of a function shown in the debugging |
| -- data differs from that function's "official" external name, and |
| -- in which several different functions have exactly the same name |
| -- as far as the debugger is concerned. We don't consider this too |
| -- much of a problem, since the only way the user has of referring |
| -- to these functions by name is, in fact, Yz.Qrs.Tuv, so that the |
| -- reference is inherently ambiguous from the user's perspective, |
| -- regardless of internal encodings (in these cases, the debugger |
| -- can provide a menu of options to allow the user to disambiguate). |
| |
| -------------------- |
| -- Operator Names -- |
| -------------------- |
| |
| -- The above rules applied to operator names would result in names |
| -- with quotation marks, which are not typically allowed by assemblers |
| -- and linkers, and even if allowed would be odd and hard to deal with. |
| -- To avoid this problem, operator names are encoded as follows: |
| |
| -- Oabs abs |
| -- Oand and |
| -- Omod mod |
| -- Onot not |
| -- Oor or |
| -- Orem rem |
| -- Oxor xor |
| -- Oeq = |
| -- One /= |
| -- Olt < |
| -- Ole <= |
| -- Ogt > |
| -- Oge >= |
| -- Oadd + |
| -- Osubtract - |
| -- Oconcat & |
| -- Omultiply * |
| -- Odivide / |
| -- Oexpon ** |
| |
| -- These names are prefixed by the normal full qualification, and |
| -- suffixed by the overloading identification. So for example, the |
| -- second operator "=" defined in package Extra.Messages would |
| -- have the name: |
| |
| -- extra__messages__Oeq__2 |
| |
| ---------------------------------- |
| -- Resolving Other Name Clashes -- |
| ---------------------------------- |
| |
| -- It might be thought that the above scheme is complete, but in Ada 95, |
| -- full qualification is insufficient to uniquely identify an entity |
| -- in the program, even if it is not an overloaded subprogram. There |
| -- are two possible confusions: |
| |
| -- a.b |
| |
| -- interpretation 1: entity b in body of package a |
| -- interpretation 2: child procedure b of package a |
| |
| -- a.b.c |
| |
| -- interpretation 1: entity c in child package a.b |
| -- interpretation 2: entity c in nested package b in body of a |
| |
| -- It is perfectly valid in both cases for both interpretations to |
| -- be valid within a single program. This is a bit of a surprise since |
| -- certainly in Ada 83, full qualification was sufficient, but not in |
| -- Ada 95. The result is that the above scheme can result in duplicate |
| -- names. This would not be so bad if the effect were just restricted |
| -- to debugging information, but in fact in both the above cases, it |
| -- is possible for both symbols to be external names, and so we have |
| -- a real problem of name clashes. |
| |
| -- To deal with this situation, we provide two additional encoding |
| -- rules for names |
| |
| -- First: all library subprogram names are preceded by the string |
| -- _ada_ (which causes no duplications, since normal Ada names can |
| -- never start with an underscore. This not only solves the first |
| -- case of duplication, but also solves another pragmatic problem |
| -- which is that otherwise Ada procedures can generate names that |
| -- clash with existing system function names. Most notably, we can |
| -- have clashes in the case of procedure Main with the C main that |
| -- in some systems is always present. |
| |
| -- Second, for the case where nested packages declared in package |
| -- bodies can cause trouble, we add a suffix which shows which |
| -- entities in the list are body-nested packages, i.e. packages |
| -- whose spec is within a package body. The rules are as follows, |
| -- given a list of names in a qualified name name1.name2.... |
| |
| -- If none are body-nested package entities, then there is no suffix |
| |
| -- If at least one is a body-nested package entity, then the suffix |
| -- is X followed by a string of b's and n's (b = body-nested package |
| -- entity, n = not a body-nested package). |
| |
| -- There is one element in this string for each entity in the encoded |
| -- expanded name except the first (the rules are such that the first |
| -- entity of the encoded expanded name can never be a body-nested' |
| -- package. Trailing n's are omitted, as is the last b (there must |
| -- be at least one b, or we would not be generating a suffix at all). |
| |
| -- For example, suppose we have |
| |
| -- package x is |
| -- pragma Elaborate_Body; |
| -- m1 : integer; -- #1 |
| -- end x; |
| |
| -- package body x is |
| -- package y is m2 : integer; end y; -- #2 |
| -- package body y is |
| -- package z is r : integer; end z; -- #3 |
| -- end; |
| -- m3 : integer; -- #4 |
| -- end x; |
| |
| -- package x.y is |
| -- pragma Elaborate_Body; |
| -- m2 : integer; -- #5 |
| -- end x.y; |
| |
| -- package body x.y is |
| -- m3 : integer; -- #6 |
| -- procedure j is -- #7 |
| -- package k is |
| -- z : integer; -- #8 |
| -- end k; |
| -- begin |
| -- null; |
| -- end j; |
| -- end x.y; |
| |
| -- procedure x.m3 is begin null; end; -- #9 |
| |
| -- Then the encodings would be: |
| |
| -- #1. x__m1 (no BNPE's in sight) |
| -- #2. x__y__m2X (y is a BNPE) |
| -- #3. x__y__z__rXb (y is a BNPE, so is z) |
| -- #4. x__m3 (no BNPE's in sight) |
| -- #5. x__y__m2 (no BNPE's in sight) |
| -- #6. x__y__m3 (no BNPE's in signt) |
| -- #7. x__y__j (no BNPE's in sight) |
| -- #8. k__z (no BNPE's, only up to procedure) |
| -- #9 _ada_x__m3 (library level subprogram) |
| |
| -- Note that we have instances here of both kind of potential name |
| -- clashes, and the above examples show how the encodings avoid the |
| -- clash as follows: |
| |
| -- Lines #4 and #9 both refer to the entity x.m3, but #9 is a library |
| -- level subprogram, so it is preceded by the string _ada_ which acts |
| -- to distinguish it from the package body entity. |
| |
| -- Lines #2 and #5 both refer to the entity x.y.m2, but the first |
| -- instance is inside the body-nested package y, so there is an X |
| -- suffix to distinguish it from the child library entity. |
| |
| -- Note that enumeration literals never need Xb type suffixes, since |
| -- they are never referenced using global external names. |
| |
| --------------------- |
| -- Interface Names -- |
| --------------------- |
| |
| -- Note: if an interface name is present, then the external name |
| -- is taken from the specified interface name. Given the current |
| -- limitations of the gcc backend, this means that the debugging |
| -- name is also set to the interface name, but conceptually, it |
| -- would be possible (and indeed desirable) to have the debugging |
| -- information still use the Ada name as qualified above, so we |
| -- still fully qualify the name in the front end. |
| |
| ------------------------------------- |
| -- Encodings Related to Task Types -- |
| ------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- Each task object defined by a single task declaration is associated |
| -- with a prefix that is used to qualify procedures defined in that |
| -- task. Given |
| -- |
| -- package body P is |
| -- task body TaskObj is |
| -- procedure F1 is ... end; |
| -- begin |
| -- B; |
| -- end TaskObj; |
| -- end P; |
| -- |
| -- The name of subprogram TaskObj.F1 is encoded as p__taskobjTK__f1, |
| -- The body, B, is contained in a subprogram whose name is |
| -- p__taskobjTKB. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------ |
| -- Encodings Related to Protected Types -- |
| ------------------------------------------ |
| |
| -- Each protected type has an associated record type, that describes |
| -- the actual layout of the private data. In addition to the private |
| -- components of the type, the Corresponding_Record_Type includes one |
| -- component of type Protection, which is the actual lock structure. |
| -- The run-time size of the protected type is the size of the corres- |
| -- ponding record. |
| |
| -- For a protected type prot, the Corresponding_Record_Type is encoded |
| -- as protV. |
| |
| -- The operations of a protected type are encoded as follows: each |
| -- operation results in two subprograms, a locking one that is called |
| -- from outside of the object, and a non-locking one that is used for |
| -- calls from other operations on the same object. The locking operation |
| -- simply acquires the lock, and then calls the non-locking version. |
| -- The names of all of these have a prefix constructed from the name |
| -- of the name of the type, the string "PT", and a suffix which is P |
| -- or N, depending on whether this is the protected or non-locking |
| -- version of the operation. |
| |
| -- Given the declaration: |
| |
| -- protected type lock is |
| -- function get return integer; |
| -- procedure set (x: integer); |
| -- private |
| -- value : integer := 0; |
| -- end lock; |
| |
| -- the following operations are created: |
| |
| -- lockPT_getN |
| -- lockPT_getP, |
| -- lockPT_setN |
| -- lockPT_setP |
| |
| ---------------------------------------------------- |
| -- Conversion between Entities and External Names -- |
| ---------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| No_Dollar_In_Label : constant Boolean := Get_No_Dollar_In_Label; |
| -- True iff the target allows dollar signs ("$") in external names |
| |
| procedure Get_External_Name |
| (Entity : Entity_Id; |
| Has_Suffix : Boolean); |
| -- Set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to the external name of entity E. |
| -- The external name is the Interface_Name, if specified, unless |
| -- the entity has an address clause or a suffix. |
| -- |
| -- If the Interface is not present, or not used, the external name |
| -- is the concatenation of: |
| -- |
| -- - the string "_ada_", if the entity is a library subprogram, |
| -- - the names of any enclosing scopes, each followed by "__", |
| -- or "X_" if the next entity is a subunit) |
| -- - the name of the entity |
| -- - the string "$" (or "__" if target does not allow "$"), followed |
| -- by homonym number, if the entity is an overloaded subprogram |
| |
| procedure Get_External_Name_With_Suffix |
| (Entity : Entity_Id; |
| Suffix : String); |
| -- Set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to the external name of entity E. |
| -- If Suffix is the empty string the external name is as above, |
| -- otherwise the external name is the concatenation of: |
| -- |
| -- - the string "_ada_", if the entity is a library subprogram, |
| -- - the names of any enclosing scopes, each followed by "__", |
| -- or "X_" if the next entity is a subunit) |
| -- - the name of the entity |
| -- - the string "$" (or "__" if target does not allow "$"), followed |
| -- by homonym number, if the entity is an overloaded subprogram |
| -- - the string "___" followed by Suffix |
| |
| function Get_Entity_Id (External_Name : String) return Entity_Id; |
| -- Find entity in current compilation unit, which has the given |
| -- External_Name. |
| |
| ---------------------------- |
| -- Debug Name Compression -- |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| -- The full qualification of names can lead to long names, and this |
| -- section describes the method used to compress these names. Such |
| -- compression is attempted if one of the following holds: |
| |
| -- The length exceeds a maximum set in hostparm, currently set |
| -- to 128, but can be changed as needed. |
| |
| -- The compiler switch -gnatC is set, setting the Compress_Debug_Names |
| -- switch in Opt to True. |
| |
| -- If either of these conditions holds, name compression is attempted |
| -- by replacing the qualifying section as follows. |
| |
| -- Given a name of the form |
| |
| -- a__b__c__d |
| |
| -- where a,b,c,d are arbitrary strings not containing a sequence |
| -- of exactly two underscores, the name is rewritten as: |
| |
| -- XC????????_d |
| |
| -- where ???????? are 8 hex digits representing a 32-bit checksum |
| -- value that identifies the sequence of compressed names. In |
| -- addition a dummy type declaration is generated as shown by |
| -- the following example. Supposed we have three compression |
| -- sequences |
| |
| -- XC1234abcd corresponding to a__b__c__ prefix |
| -- XCabcd1234 corresponding to a__b__ prefix |
| -- XCab1234cd corresponding to a__ prefix |
| |
| -- then an enumeration type declaration is generated: |
| |
| -- type XC is |
| -- (XC1234abcdXnn, aXnn, bXnn, cXnn, |
| -- XCabcd1234Xnn, aXnn, bXnn, |
| -- XCab1234cdXnn, aXnn); |
| |
| -- showing the meaning of each compressed prefix, so the debugger |
| -- can interpret the exact sequence of names that correspond to the |
| -- compressed sequence. The Xnn suffixes in the above are simply |
| -- serial numbers that are guaranteed to be different to ensure |
| -- that all names are unique, and are otherwise ignored. |
| |
| -------------------------------------------- |
| -- Subprograms for Handling Qualification -- |
| -------------------------------------------- |
| |
| procedure Qualify_Entity_Names (N : Node_Id); |
| -- Given a node N, that represents a block, subprogram body, or package |
| -- body or spec, or protected or task type, sets a fully qualified name |
| -- for the defining entity of given construct, and also sets fully |
| -- qualified names for all enclosed entities of the construct (using |
| -- First_Entity/Next_Entity). Note that the actual modifications of the |
| -- names is postponed till a subsequent call to Qualify_All_Entity_Names. |
| -- Note: this routine does not deal with prepending _ada_ to library |
| -- subprogram names. The reason for this is that we only prepend _ada_ |
| -- to the library entity itself, and not to names built from this name. |
| |
| procedure Qualify_All_Entity_Names; |
| -- When Qualify_Entity_Names is called, no actual name changes are made, |
| -- i.e. the actual calls to Qualify_Entity_Name are deferred until a call |
| -- is made to this procedure. The reason for this deferral is that when |
| -- names are changed semantic processing may be affected. By deferring |
| -- the changes till just before gigi is called, we avoid any concerns |
| -- about such effects. Gigi itself does not use the names except for |
| -- output of names for debugging purposes (which is why we are doing |
| -- the name changes in the first place. |
| |
| -- Note: the routines Get_Unqualified_[Decoded]_Name_String in Namet |
| -- are useful to remove qualification from a name qualified by the |
| -- call to Qualify_All_Entity_Names. |
| |
| procedure Generate_Auxiliary_Types; |
| -- The process of qualifying names may result in name compression which |
| -- requires dummy enumeration types to be generated. This subprogram |
| -- ensures that these types are appropriately included in the tree. |
| |
| -------------------------------- |
| -- Handling of Numeric Values -- |
| -------------------------------- |
| |
| -- All numeric values here are encoded as strings of decimal digits. |
| -- Only integer values need to be encoded. A negative value is encoded |
| -- as the corresponding positive value followed by a lower case m for |
| -- minus to indicate that the value is negative (e.g. 2m for -2). |
| |
| ------------------------- |
| -- Type Name Encodings -- |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| -- In the following typ is the name of the type as normally encoded by |
| -- the debugger rules, i.e. a non-qualified name, all in lower case, |
| -- with standard encoding of upper half and wide characters |
| |
| ------------------------ |
| -- Encapsulated Types -- |
| ------------------------ |
| |
| -- In some cases, the compiler encapsulates a type by wrapping it in |
| -- a structure. For example, this is used when a size or alignment |
| -- specification requires a larger type. Consider: |
| |
| -- type y is mod 2 ** 64; |
| -- for y'size use 256; |
| |
| -- In this case the compile generates a structure type y___PAD, which |
| -- has a single field whose name is F. This single field is 64 bits |
| -- long and contains the actual value. |
| |
| -- A similar encapsulation is done for some packed array types, |
| -- in which case the structure type is y___LJM and the field name |
| -- is OBJECT. |
| |
| -- When the debugger sees an object of a type whose name has a |
| -- suffix not otherwise mentioned in this specification, the type |
| -- is a record containing a single field, and the name of that field |
| -- is all upper-case letters, it should look inside to get the value |
| -- of the field, and neither the outer structure name, nor the |
| -- field name should appear when the value is printed. |
| |
| ----------------------- |
| -- Fixed-Point Types -- |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| -- Fixed-point types are encoded using a suffix that indicates the |
| -- delta and small values. The actual type itself is a normal |
| -- integer type. |
| |
| -- typ___XF_nn_dd |
| -- typ___XF_nn_dd_nn_dd |
| |
| -- The first form is used when small = delta. The value of delta (and |
| -- small) is given by the rational nn/dd, where nn and dd are decimal |
| -- integers. |
| -- |
| -- The second form is used if the small value is different from the |
| -- delta. In this case, the first nn/dd rational value is for delta, |
| -- and the second value is for small. |
| |
| ------------------------------ |
| -- VAX Floating-Point Types -- |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| -- Vax floating-point types are represented at run time as integer |
| -- types, which are treated specially by the code generator. Their |
| -- type names are encoded with the following suffix: |
| |
| -- typ___XFF |
| -- typ___XFD |
| -- typ___XFG |
| |
| -- representing the Vax F Float, D Float, and G Float types. The |
| -- debugger must treat these specially. In particular, printing |
| -- these values can be achieved using the debug procedures that |
| -- are provided in package System.Vax_Float_Operations: |
| |
| -- procedure Debug_Output_D (Arg : D); |
| -- procedure Debug_Output_F (Arg : F); |
| -- procedure Debug_Output_G (Arg : G); |
| |
| -- These three procedures take a Vax floating-point argument, and |
| -- output a corresponding decimal representation to standard output |
| -- with no terminating line return. |
| |
| -------------------- |
| -- Discrete Types -- |
| -------------------- |
| |
| -- Discrete types are coded with a suffix indicating the range in |
| -- the case where one or both of the bounds are discriminants or |
| -- variable. |
| |
| -- Note: at the current time, we also encode static bounds if they |
| -- do not match the natural machine type bounds, but this may be |
| -- removed in the future, since it is redundant for most debugging |
| -- formats. However, we do not ever need XD encoding for enumeration |
| -- base types, since here it is always clear what the bounds are |
| -- from the number of enumeration literals, and of course we do |
| -- not need to encode the dummy XR types generated for renamings. |
| |
| -- typ___XD |
| -- typ___XDL_lowerbound |
| -- typ___XDU_upperbound |
| -- typ___XDLU_lowerbound__upperbound |
| |
| -- If a discrete type is a natural machine type (i.e. its bounds |
| -- correspond in a natural manner to its size), then it is left |
| -- unencoded. The above encoding forms are used when there is a |
| -- constrained range that does not correspond to the size or that |
| -- has discriminant references or other non-static bounds. |
| |
| -- The first form is used if both bounds are dynamic, in which case |
| -- two constant objects are present whose names are typ___L and |
| -- typ___U in the same scope as typ, and the values of these constants |
| -- indicate the bounds. As far as the debugger is concerned, these |
| -- are simply variables that can be accessed like any other variables. |
| -- In the enumeration case, these values correspond to the Enum_Rep |
| -- values for the lower and upper bounds. |
| |
| -- The second form is used if the upper bound is dynamic, but the |
| -- lower bound is either constant or depends on a discriminant of |
| -- the record with which the type is associated. The upper bound |
| -- is stored in a constant object of name typ___U as previously |
| -- described, but the lower bound is encoded directly into the |
| -- name as either a decimal integer, or as the discriminant name. |
| |
| -- The third form is similarly used if the lower bound is dynamic, |
| -- but the upper bound is static or a discriminant reference, in |
| -- which case the lower bound is stored in a constant object of |
| -- name typ___L, and the upper bound is encoded directly into the |
| -- name as either a decimal integer, or as the discriminant name. |
| |
| -- The fourth form is used if both bounds are discriminant references |
| -- or static values, with the encoding first for the lower bound, |
| -- then for the upper bound, as previously described. |
| |
| ------------------ |
| -- Biased Types -- |
| ------------------ |
| |
| -- Only discrete types can be biased, and the fact that they are |
| -- biased is indicated by a suffix of the form: |
| |
| -- typ___XB_lowerbound__upperbound |
| |
| -- Here lowerbound and upperbound are decimal integers, with the |
| -- usual (postfix "m") encoding for negative numbers. Biased |
| -- types are only possible where the bounds are static, and the |
| -- values are represented as unsigned offsets from the lower |
| -- bound given. For example: |
| |
| -- type Q is range 10 .. 15; |
| -- for Q'size use 3; |
| |
| -- The size clause will force values of type Q in memory to be |
| -- stored in biased form (e.g. 11 will be represented by the |
| -- bit pattern 001). |
| |
| ---------------------------------------------- |
| -- Record Types with Variable-Length Fields -- |
| ---------------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- The debugging formats do not fully support these types, and indeed |
| -- some formats simply generate no useful information at all for such |
| -- types. In order to provide information for the debugger, gigi creates |
| -- a parallel type in the same scope with one of the names |
| |
| -- type___XVE |
| -- type___XVU |
| |
| -- The former name is used for a record and the latter for the union |
| -- that is made for a variant record (see below) if that union has |
| -- variable size. These encodings suffix any other encodings that |
| -- might be suffixed to the type name. |
| |
| -- The idea here is to provide all the needed information to interpret |
| -- objects of the original type in the form of a "fixed up" type, which |
| -- is representable using the normal debugging information. |
| |
| -- There are three cases to be dealt with. First, some fields may have |
| -- variable positions because they appear after variable-length fields. |
| -- To deal with this, we encode *all* the field bit positions of the |
| -- special ___XV type in a non-standard manner. |
| |
| -- The idea is to encode not the position, but rather information |
| -- that allows computing the position of a field from the position |
| -- of the previous field. The algorithm for computing the actual |
| -- positions of all fields and the length of the record is as |
| -- follows. In this description, let P represent the current |
| -- bit position in the record. |
| |
| -- 1. Initialize P to 0. |
| |
| -- 2. For each field in the record, |
| |
| -- 2a. If an alignment is given (see below), then round P |
| -- up, if needed, to the next multiple of that alignment. |
| |
| -- 2b. If a bit position is given, then increment P by that |
| -- amount (that is, treat it as an offset from the end of the |
| -- preceding record). |
| |
| -- 2c. Assign P as the actual position of the field. |
| |
| -- 2d. Compute the length, L, of the represented field (see below) |
| -- and compute P'=P+L. Unless the field represents a variant part |
| -- (see below and also Variant Record Encoding), set P to P'. |
| |
| -- The alignment, if present, is encoded in the field name of the |
| -- record, which has a suffix: |
| |
| -- fieldname___XVAnn |
| |
| -- where the nn after the XVA indicates the alignment value in storage |
| -- units. This encoding is present only if an alignment is present. |
| |
| -- The size of the record described by an XVE-encoded type (in bits) |
| -- is generally the maximum value attained by P' in step 2d above, |
| -- rounded up according to the record's alignment. |
| |
| -- Second, the variable-length fields themselves are represented by |
| -- replacing the type by a special access type. The designated type |
| -- of this access type is the original variable-length type, and the |
| -- fact that this field has been transformed in this way is signalled |
| -- by encoding the field name as: |
| |
| -- field___XVL |
| |
| -- where field is the original field name. If a field is both |
| -- variable-length and also needs an alignment encoding, then the |
| -- encodings are combined using: |
| |
| -- field___XVLnn |
| |
| -- Note: the reason that we change the type is so that the resulting |
| -- type has no variable-length fields. At least some of the formats |
| -- used for debugging information simply cannot tolerate variable- |
| -- length fields, so the encoded information would get lost. |
| |
| -- Third, in the case of a variant record, the special union |
| -- that contains the variants is replaced by a normal C union. |
| -- In this case, the positions are all zero. |
| |
| -- As an example of this encoding, consider the declarations: |
| |
| -- type Q is array (1 .. V1) of Float; -- alignment 4 |
| -- type R is array (1 .. V2) of Long_Float; -- alignment 8 |
| |
| -- type X is record |
| -- A : Character; |
| -- B : Float; |
| -- C : String (1 .. V3); |
| -- D : Float; |
| -- E : Q; |
| -- F : R; |
| -- G : Float; |
| -- end record; |
| |
| -- The encoded type looks like: |
| |
| -- type anonymousQ is access Q; |
| -- type anonymousR is access R; |
| |
| -- type X___XVE is record |
| -- A : Character; -- position contains 0 |
| -- B : Float; -- position contains 24 |
| -- C___XVL : access String (1 .. V3); -- position contains 0 |
| -- D___XVA4 : Float; -- position contains 0 |
| -- E___XVL4 : anonymousQ; -- position contains 0 |
| -- F___XVL8 : anonymousR; -- position contains 0 |
| -- G : Float; -- position contains 0 |
| -- end record; |
| |
| -- Any bit sizes recorded for fields other than dynamic fields and |
| -- variants are honored as for ordinary records. |
| |
| -- Notes: |
| |
| -- 1) The B field could also have been encoded by using a position |
| -- of zero, and an alignment of 4, but in such a case, the coding by |
| -- position is preferred (since it takes up less space). We have used |
| -- the (illegal) notation access xxx as field types in the example |
| -- above. |
| |
| -- 2) The E field does not actually need the alignment indication |
| -- but this may not be detected in this case by the conversion |
| -- routines. |
| |
| -- All discriminants always appear before any variable-length |
| -- fields that depend on them. So they can be located independent |
| -- of the variable-length field, using the standard procedure for |
| -- computing positions described above. |
| |
| -- The size of the ___XVE or ___XVU record or union is set to the |
| -- alignment (in bytes) of the original object so that the debugger |
| -- can calculate the size of the original type. |
| |
| -- 3) Our conventions do not cover all XVE-encoded records in which |
| -- some, but not all, fields have representation clauses. Such |
| -- records may, therefore, be displayed incorrectly by debuggers. |
| -- This situation is not common. |
| |
| ----------------------- |
| -- Base Record Types -- |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| -- Under certain circumstances, debuggers need two descriptions |
| -- of a record type, one that gives the actual details of the |
| -- base type's structure (as described elsewhere in these |
| -- comments) and one that may be used to obtain information |
| -- about the particular subtype and the size of the objects |
| -- being typed. In such cases the compiler will substitute a |
| -- type whose name is typically compiler-generated and |
| -- irrelevant except as a key for obtaining the actual type. |
| -- Specifically, if this name is x, then we produce a record |
| -- type named x___XVS consisting of one field. The name of |
| -- this field is that of the actual type being encoded, which |
| -- we'll call y (the type of this single field is arbitrary). |
| -- Both x and y may have corresponding ___XVE types. |
| |
| -- The size of the objects typed as x should be obtained from |
| -- the structure of x (and x___XVE, if applicable) as for |
| -- ordinary types unless there is a variable named x___XVZ, which, |
| -- if present, will hold the the size (in bits) of x. |
| |
| -- The type x will either be a subtype of y (see also Subtypes |
| -- of Variant Records, below) or will contain no fields at |
| -- all. The layout, types, and positions of these fields will |
| -- be accurate, if present. (Currently, however, the GDB |
| -- debugger makes no use of x except to determine its size). |
| |
| -- Among other uses, XVS types are sometimes used to encode |
| -- unconstrained types. For example, given |
| -- |
| -- subtype Int is INTEGER range 0..10; |
| -- type T1 (N: Int := 0) is record |
| -- F1: String (1 .. N); |
| -- end record; |
| -- type AT1 is array (INTEGER range <>) of T1; |
| -- |
| -- the element type for AT1 might have a type defined as if it had |
| -- been written: |
| -- |
| -- type at1___C_PAD is record null; end record; |
| -- for at1___C_PAD'Size use 16 * 8; |
| -- |
| -- and there would also be |
| -- |
| -- type at1___C_PAD___XVS is record t1: Integer; end record; |
| -- type t1 is ... |
| -- |
| -- Had the subtype Int been dynamic: |
| -- |
| -- subtype Int is INTEGER range 0 .. M; -- M a variable |
| -- |
| -- Then the compiler would also generate a declaration whose effect |
| -- would be |
| -- |
| -- at1___C_PAD___XVZ: constant Integer := 32 + M * 8 + padding term; |
| -- |
| -- Not all unconstrained types are so encoded; the XVS |
| -- convention may be unnecessary for unconstrained types of |
| -- fixed size. However, this encoding is always necessary when |
| -- a subcomponent type (array element's type or record field's |
| -- type) is an unconstrained record type some of whose |
| -- components depend on discriminant values. |
| |
| ----------------- |
| -- Array Types -- |
| ----------------- |
| |
| -- Since there is no way for the debugger to obtain the index subtypes |
| -- for an array type, we produce a type that has the name of the |
| -- array type followed by "___XA" and is a record whose field names |
| -- are the names of the types for the bounds. The types of these |
| -- fields is an integer type which is meaningless. |
| |
| -- To conserve space, we do not produce this type unless one of |
| -- the index types is either an enumeration type, has a variable |
| -- upper bound, has a lower bound different from the constant 1, |
| -- is a biased type, or is wider than "sizetype". |
| |
| -- Given the full encoding of these types (see above description for |
| -- the encoding of discrete types), this means that all necessary |
| -- information for addressing arrays is available. In some |
| -- debugging formats, some or all of the bounds information may |
| -- be available redundantly, particularly in the fixed-point case, |
| -- but this information can in any case be ignored by the debugger. |
| |
| ---------------------------- |
| -- Note on Implicit Types -- |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| -- The compiler creates implicit type names in many situations where |
| -- a type is present semantically, but no specific name is present. |
| -- For example: |
| |
| -- S : Integer range M .. N; |
| |
| -- Here the subtype of S is not integer, but rather an anonymous |
| -- subtype of Integer. Where possible, the compiler generates names |
| -- for such anonymous types that are related to the type from which |
| -- the subtype is obtained as follows: |
| |
| -- T name suffix |
| |
| -- where name is the name from which the subtype is obtained, using |
| -- lower case letters and underscores, and suffix starts with an upper |
| -- case letter. For example, the name for the above declaration of S |
| -- might be: |
| |
| -- TintegerS4b |
| |
| -- If the debugger is asked to give the type of an entity and the type |
| -- has the form T name suffix, it is probably appropriate to just use |
| -- "name" in the response since this is what is meaningful to the |
| -- programmer. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------- |
| -- Subprograms for Handling Encoded Type Names -- |
| ------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| procedure Get_Encoded_Name (E : Entity_Id); |
| -- If the entity is a typename, store the external name of |
| -- the entity as in Get_External_Name, followed by three underscores |
| -- plus the type encoding in Name_Buffer with the length in Name_Len, |
| -- and an ASCII.NUL character stored following the name. |
| -- Otherwise set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to hold the entity name. |
| |
| -------------- |
| -- Renaming -- |
| -------------- |
| |
| -- Debugging information is generated for exception, object, package, |
| -- and subprogram renaming (generic renamings are not significant, since |
| -- generic templates are not relevant at debugging time). |
| |
| -- Consider a renaming declaration of the form |
| |
| -- x typ renames y; |
| |
| -- There is one case in which no special debugging information is required, |
| -- namely the case of an object renaming where the backend allocates a |
| -- reference for the renamed variable, and the entity x is this reference. |
| -- The debugger can handle this case without any special processing or |
| -- encoding (it won't know it was a renaming, but that does not matter). |
| |
| -- All other cases of renaming generate a dummy type definition for |
| -- an entity whose name is: |
| |
| -- x___XR for an object renaming |
| -- x___XRE for an exception renaming |
| -- x___XRP for a package renaming |
| |
| -- The name is fully qualified in the usual manner, i.e. qualified in |
| -- the same manner as the entity x would be. |
| |
| -- Note: subprogram renamings are not encoded at the present time. |
| |
| -- The type is an enumeration type with a single enumeration literal |
| -- that is an identifier which describes the renamed variable. |
| |
| -- For the simple entity case, where y is an entity name, |
| -- the enumeration is of the form: |
| |
| -- (y___XE) |
| |
| -- i.e. the enumeration type has a single field, whose name |
| -- matches the name y, with the XE suffix. The entity for this |
| -- enumeration literal is fully qualified in the usual manner. |
| -- All subprogram, exception, and package renamings fall into |
| -- this category, as well as simple object renamings. |
| |
| -- For the object renaming case where y is a selected component or an |
| -- indexed component, the literal name is suffixed by additional fields |
| -- that give details of the components. The name starts as above with |
| -- a y___XE entity indicating the outer level variable. Then a series |
| -- of selections and indexing operations can be specified as follows: |
| |
| -- Indexed component |
| |
| -- A series of subscript values appear in sequence, the number |
| -- corresponds to the number of dimensions of the array. The |
| -- subscripts have one of the following two forms: |
| |
| -- XSnnn |
| |
| -- Here nnn is a constant value, encoded as a decimal |
| -- integer (pos value for enumeration type case). Negative |
| -- values have a trailing 'm' as usual. |
| |
| -- XSe |
| |
| -- Here e is the (unqualified) name of a constant entity in |
| -- the same scope as the renaming which contains the subscript |
| -- value. |
| |
| -- Slice |
| |
| -- For the slice case, we have two entries. The first is for |
| -- the lower bound of the slice, and has the form |
| |
| -- XLnnn |
| -- XLe |
| |
| -- Specifies the lower bound, using exactly the same encoding |
| -- as for an XS subscript as described above. |
| |
| -- Then the upper bound appears in the usual XSnnn/XSe form |
| |
| -- Selected component |
| |
| -- For a selected component, we have a single entry |
| |
| -- XRf |
| |
| -- Here f is the field name for the selection |
| |
| -- For an explicit deference (.all), we have a single entry |
| |
| -- XA |
| |
| -- As an example, consider the declarations: |
| |
| -- package p is |
| -- type q is record |
| -- m : string (2 .. 5); |
| -- end record; |
| -- |
| -- type r is array (1 .. 10, 1 .. 20) of q; |
| -- |
| -- g : r; |
| -- |
| -- z : string renames g (1,5).m(2 ..3) |
| -- end p; |
| |
| -- The generated type definition would appear as |
| |
| -- type p__z___XR is |
| -- (p__g___XEXS1XS5XRmXL2XS3); |
| -- p__q___XE--------------------outer entity is g |
| -- XS1-----------------first subscript for g |
| -- XS5--------------second subscript for g |
| -- XRm-----------select field m |
| -- XL2--------lower bound of slice |
| -- XS3-----upper bound of slice |
| |
| function Debug_Renaming_Declaration (N : Node_Id) return Node_Id; |
| -- The argument N is a renaming declaration. The result is a type |
| -- declaration as described in the above paragraphs. If not special |
| -- debug declaration, than Empty is returned. |
| |
| --------------------------- |
| -- Packed Array Encoding -- |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| -- For every packed array, two types are created, and both appear in |
| -- the debugging output. |
| |
| -- The original declared array type is a perfectly normal array type, |
| -- and its index bounds indicate the original bounds of the array. |
| |
| -- The corresponding packed array type, which may be a modular type, or |
| -- may be an array of bytes type (see Exp_Pakd for full details). This |
| -- is the type that is actually used in the generated code and for |
| -- debugging information for all objects of the packed type. |
| |
| -- The name of the corresponding packed array type is: |
| |
| -- ttt___XPnnn |
| |
| -- where |
| -- ttt is the name of the original declared array |
| -- nnn is the component size in bits (1-31) |
| |
| -- When the debugger sees that an object is of a type that is encoded |
| -- in this manner, it can use the original type to determine the bounds, |
| -- and the component size to determine the packing details. |
| |
| -- Packed arrays are represented in tightly packed form, with no extra |
| -- bits between components. This is true even when the component size |
| -- is not a factor of the storage unit size, so that as a result it is |
| -- possible for components to cross storage unit boundaries. |
| |
| -- The layout in storage is identical, regardless of whether the |
| -- implementation type is a modular type or an array-of-bytes type. |
| -- See Exp_Pakd for details of how these implementation types are used, |
| -- but for the purpose of the debugger, only the starting address of |
| -- the object in memory is significant. |
| |
| -- The following example should show clearly how the packing works in |
| -- the little-endian and big-endian cases: |
| |
| -- type B is range 0 .. 7; |
| -- for B'Size use 3; |
| |
| -- type BA is array (0 .. 5) of B; |
| -- pragma Pack (BA); |
| |
| -- BV : constant BA := (1,2,3,4,5,6); |
| |
| -- Little endian case |
| |
| -- BV'Address + 2 BV'Address + 1 BV'Address + 0 |
| -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ |
| -- | 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 | 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 | 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 | |
| -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ |
| -- <---------> <-----> <---> <---> <-----> <---> <---> |
| -- unused bits BV(5) BV(4) BV(3) BV(2) BV(1) BV(0) |
| -- |
| -- Big endian case |
| -- |
| -- BV'Address + 0 BV'Address + 1 BV'Address + 2 |
| -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ |
| -- | 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 | 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 | 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 | |
| -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ |
| -- <---> <---> <-----> <---> <---> <-----> <---------> |
| -- BV(0) BV(1) BV(2) BV(3) BV(4) BV(5) unused bits |
| |
| ------------------------------------------------------ |
| -- Subprograms for Handling Packed Array Type Names -- |
| ------------------------------------------------------ |
| |
| function Make_Packed_Array_Type_Name |
| (Typ : Entity_Id; |
| Csize : Uint) |
| return Name_Id; |
| -- This function is used in Exp_Pakd to create the name that is encoded |
| -- as described above. The entity Typ provides the name ttt, and the |
| -- value Csize is the component size that provides the nnn value. |
| |
| -------------------------------------- |
| -- Pointers to Unconstrained Arrays -- |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- There are two kinds of pointers to arrays. The debugger can tell |
| -- which format is in use by the form of the type of the pointer. |
| |
| -- Fat Pointers |
| |
| -- Fat pointers are represented as a struct with two fields. This |
| -- struct has two distinguished field names: |
| |
| -- P_ARRAY is a pointer to the array type. The name of this |
| -- type is the unconstrained type followed by "___XUA". This |
| -- array will have bounds which are the discriminants, and |
| -- hence are unparsable, but will give the number of |
| -- subscripts and the component type. |
| |
| -- P_BOUNDS is a pointer to a struct, the name of whose type is the |
| -- unconstrained array name followed by "___XUB" and which has |
| -- fields of the form |
| |
| -- LBn (n a decimal integer) lower bound of n'th dimension |
| -- UBn (n a decimal integer) upper bound of n'th dimension |
| |
| -- The bounds may be any integral type. In the case of an |
| -- enumeration type, Enum_Rep values are used. |
| |
| -- The debugging information will sometimes reference an anonymous |
| -- fat pointer type. Such types are given the name xxx___XUP, where |
| -- xxx is the name of the designated type. If the debugger is asked |
| -- to output such a type name, the appropriate form is "access xxx". |
| |
| -- Thin Pointers |
| |
| -- Thin pointers are represented as a pointer to the ARRAY field of |
| -- a structure with two fields. The name of the structure type is |
| -- that of the unconstrained array followed by "___XUT". |
| |
| -- The field ARRAY contains the array value. This array field is |
| -- typically a variable-length array, and consequently the entire |
| -- record structure will be encoded as previously described, |
| -- resulting in a type with suffix "___XUT___XVE". |
| |
| -- The field BOUNDS is a struct containing the bounds as above. |
| |
| -------------------------------------- |
| -- Tagged Types and Type Extensions -- |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- A type C derived from a tagged type P has a field named "_parent" |
| -- of type P that contains its inherited fields. The type of this |
| -- field is usually P (encoded as usual if it has a dynamic size), |
| -- but may be a more distant ancestor, if P is a null extension of |
| -- that type. |
| |
| -- The type tag of a tagged type is a field named _tag, of type void*. |
| -- If the type is derived from another tagged type, its _tag field is |
| -- found in its _parent field. |
| |
| ----------------------------- |
| -- Variant Record Encoding -- |
| ----------------------------- |
| |
| -- The variant part of a variant record is encoded as a single field |
| -- in the enclosing record, whose name is: |
| |
| -- discrim___XVN |
| |
| -- where discrim is the unqualified name of the variant. This field name |
| -- is built by gigi (not by code in this unit). In the case of an |
| -- Unchecked_Union record, this discriminant will not appear in the |
| -- record, and the debugger must proceed accordingly (basically it |
| -- can treat this case as it would a C union). |
| |
| -- The type corresponding to this field has a name that is obtained |
| -- by concatenating the type name with the above string and is similar |
| -- to a C union, in which each member of the union corresponds to one |
| -- variant. However, unlike a C union, the size of the type may be |
| -- variable even if each of the components are fixed size, since it |
| -- includes a computation of which variant is present. In that case, |
| -- it will be encoded as above and a type with the suffix "___XVN___XVU" |
| -- will be present. |
| |
| -- The name of the union member is encoded to indicate the choices, and |
| -- is a string given by the following grammar: |
| |
| -- union_name ::= {choice} | others_choice |
| -- choice ::= simple_choice | range_choice |
| -- simple_choice ::= S number |
| -- range_choice ::= R number T number |
| -- number ::= {decimal_digit} [m] |
| -- others_choice ::= O (upper case letter O) |
| |
| -- The m in a number indicates a negative value. As an example of this |
| -- encoding scheme, the choice 1 .. 4 | 7 | -10 would be represented by |
| |
| -- R1T4S7S10m |
| |
| -- In the case of enumeration values, the values used are the |
| -- actual representation values in the case where an enumeration type |
| -- has an enumeration representation spec (i.e. they are values that |
| -- correspond to the use of the Enum_Rep attribute). |
| |
| -- The type of the inner record is given by the name of the union |
| -- type (as above) concatenated with the above string. Since that |
| -- type may itself be variable-sized, it may also be encoded as above |
| -- with a new type with a further suffix of "___XVU". |
| |
| -- As an example, consider: |
| |
| -- type Var (Disc : Boolean := True) is record |
| -- M : Integer; |
| |
| -- case Disc is |
| -- when True => |
| -- R : Integer; |
| -- S : Integer; |
| |
| -- when False => |
| -- T : Integer; |
| -- end case; |
| -- end record; |
| |
| -- V1 : Var; |
| |
| -- In this case, the type var is represented as a struct with three |
| -- fields, the first two are "disc" and "m", representing the values |
| -- of these record components. |
| |
| -- The third field is a union of two types, with field names S1 and O. |
| -- S1 is a struct with fields "r" and "s", and O is a struct with |
| -- fields "t". |
| |

| -- Subprograms for Handling Variant Encodings -- |

| |
| procedure Get_Variant_Encoding (V : Node_Id); |
| -- This procedure is called by Gigi with V being the variant node. |

| -- the length of the string in Name_Len, and an ASCII.NUL character |
| -- stored following the name. |
| |
| --------------------------------- |
| -- Subtypes of Variant Records -- |
| --------------------------------- |
| |
| -- A subtype of a variant record is represented by a type in which the |
| -- union field from the base type is replaced by one of the possible |
| -- values. For example, if we have: |
| |
| -- type Var (Disc : Boolean := True) is record |
| -- M : Integer; |
| |
| -- case Disc is |
| -- when True => |
| -- R : Integer; |
| -- S : Integer; |
| |
| -- when False => |
| -- T : Integer; |
| -- end case; |
| |
| -- end record; |
| -- V1 : Var; |
| -- V2 : Var (True); |
| -- V3 : Var (False); |
| |
| -- Here V2 for example is represented with a subtype whose name is |
| -- something like TvarS3b, which is a struct with three fields. The |
| -- first two fields are "disc" and "m" as for the base type, and |
| -- the third field is S1, which contains the fields "r" and "s". |
| |
| -- The debugger should simply ignore structs with names of the form |
| -- corresponding to variants, and consider the fields inside as |
| -- belonging to the containing record. |
| |
| ------------------------------------------- |
| -- Character literals in Character Types -- |
| ------------------------------------------- |
| |
| -- Character types are enumeration types at least one of whose |
| -- enumeration literals is a character literal. Enumeration literals |
| -- are usually simply represented using their identifier names. In |
| -- the case where an enumeration literal is a character literal, the |
| -- name aencoded as described in the following paragraph. |
| |
| -- A name QUhh, where each 'h' is a lower-case hexadecimal digit, |
| -- stands for a character whose Unicode encoding is hh, and |
| -- QWhhhh likewise stands for a wide character whose encoding |
| -- is hhhh. The representation values are encoded as for ordinary |
| -- enumeration literals (and have no necessary relationship to the |
| -- values encoded in the names). |
| |
| -- For example, given the type declaration |
| |
| -- type x is (A, 'C', B); |
| |
| -- the second enumeration literal would be named QU43 and the |
| -- value assigned to it would be 1. |
| |
| ------------------- |
| -- Modular Types -- |
| ------------------- |
| |
| -- A type declared |
| |
| -- type x is mod N; |
| |
| -- Is encoded as a subrange of an unsigned base type with lower bound |
| -- 0 and upper bound N. That is, there is no name encoding; we only use |
| -- the standard encodings provided by the debugging format. Thus, |
| -- we give these types a non-standard interpretation: the standard |
| -- interpretation of our encoding would not, in general, imply that |
| -- arithmetic on type x was to be performed modulo N (especially not |
| -- when N is not a power of 2). |
| |
| --------------------- |
| -- Context Clauses -- |
| --------------------- |
| |
| -- The SGI Workshop debugger requires a very peculiar and nonstandard |
| -- symbol name containing $ signs to be generated that records the |
| -- use clauses that are used in a unit. GDB does not use this name, |
| -- since it takes a different philsophy of universal use visibility, |
| -- with manual resolution of any ambiguities. |
| |
| -- The routines and data in this section are used to prepare this |
| -- specialized name, whose exact contents are described below. Gigi |
| -- will output this encoded name only in the SGI case (indeed, not |
| -- only is it useless on other targets, but hazardous, given the use |
| -- of the non-standard character $ rejected by many assemblers.) |
| |
| -- "Use" clauses are encoded as follows: |
| |
| -- _LSS__ prefix for clauses in a subprogram spec |
| -- _LSB__ prefix for clauses in a subprogram body |
| -- _LPS__ prefix for clauses in a package spec |
| -- _LPB__ prefix for clauses in a package body |
| |
| -- Following the prefix is the fully qualified filename, followed by |
| -- '$' separated names of fully qualified units in the "use" clause. |
| -- If a unit appears in both the spec and the body "use" clause, it |
| -- will appear once in the _L[SP]S__ encoding and twice in the _L[SP]B__ |
| -- encoding. The encoding appears as a global symbol in the object file. |
