23/* This file contains support routines for creating, manipulating, and
24 destroying minimal symbol tables.
25
26 Minimal symbol tables are used to hold some very basic information about
27 all defined global symbols (text, data, bss, abs, etc). The only two
28 required pieces of information are the symbol's name and the address
29 associated with that symbol.
30
31 In many cases, even if a file was compiled with no special options for
32 debugging at all, as long as was not stripped it will contain sufficient
33 information to build useful minimal symbol tables using this structure.
c5aa993b 34
c906108c
SS
35 Even when a file contains enough debugging information to build a full
36 symbol table, these minimal symbols are still useful for quickly mapping
37 between names and addresses, and vice versa. They are also sometimes used
38 to figure out what full symbol table entries need to be read in. */

678
679 On entry, the table resides between msymbol[0] and msymbol[mcount].
680 On exit, it resides between msymbol[0] and msymbol[result_count].
681
682 When files contain multiple sources of symbol information, it is
683 possible for the minimal symbol table to contain many duplicate entries.
684 As an example, SVR4 systems use ELF formatted object files, which
685 usually contain at least two different types of symbol tables (a
686 standard ELF one and a smaller dynamic linking table), as well as
687 DWARF debugging information for files compiled with -g.
688
689 Without compacting, the minimal symbol table for gdb itself contains
690 over a 1000 duplicates, about a third of the total table size. Aside
691 from the potential trap of not noticing that two successive entries
692 identify the same location, this duplication impacts the time required
693 to linearly scan the table, which is done in a number of places. So we
694 just do one linear scan here and toss out the duplicates.
695
696 Note that we are not concerned here about recovering the space that
697 is potentially freed up, because the strings themselves are allocated
698 on the symbol_obstack, and will get automatically freed when the symbol
699 table is freed. The caller can free up the unused minimal symbols at
700 the end of the compacted region if their allocation strategy allows it.
701
702 Also note we only go up to the next to last entry within the loop
703 and then copy the last entry explicitly after the loop terminates.
704
705 Since the different sources of information for each symbol may
706 have different levels of "completeness", we may have duplicates
707 that have one entry with type "mst_unknown" and the other with a
708 known type. So if the one we are leaving alone has type mst_unknown,
709 overwrite its type with the type from the one we are compacting out. */

747 for this objfile, and the existing bunches are used to create one. Once
748 in a while (for shared libraries for example), we add symbols (e.g. common
749 symbols) to an existing objfile.
750
751 Because of the way minimal symbols are collected, we generally have no way
752 of knowing what source language applies to any particular minimal symbol.
753 Specifically, we have no way of knowing if the minimal symbol comes from a
754 C++ compilation unit or not. So for the sake of supporting cached
755 demangled C++ names, we have no choice but to try and demangle each new one
756 that comes in. If the demangling succeeds, then we assume it is a C++
757 symbol and set the symbol's language and demangled name fields
758 appropriately. Note that in order to avoid unnecessary demanglings, and
759 allocating obstack space that subsequently can't be freed for the demangled
760 names, we mark all newly added symbols with language_auto. After
761 compaction of the minimal symbols, we go back and scan the entire minimal
762 symbol table looking for these new symbols. For each new symbol we attempt
763 to demangle it, and if successful, record it as a language_cplus symbol
764 and cache the demangled form on the symbol obstack. Symbols which don't
765 demangle are marked as language_unknown symbols, which inhibits future
766 attempts to demangle them if we later add more minimal symbols. */
