Pedro Alves 7022349d5c Stop assuming no-debug-info functions return int 
The fact that GDB defaults to assuming that functions return int, when
it has no debug info for the function has been a recurring source of
user confusion.  Recently this came up on the errno pretty printer
discussions.  Shortly after, it came up again on IRC, with someone
wondering why does getenv() in GDB return a negative int:

  (gdb) p getenv("PATH")
  $1 = -6185

This question (with s/getenv/random-other-C-runtime-function) is a FAQ
on IRC.

The reason for the above is:

 (gdb) p getenv
 $2 = {<text variable, no debug info>} 0x7ffff7751d80 <getenv>
 (gdb) ptype getenv
 type = int ()

... which means that GDB truncated the 64-bit pointer that is actually
returned from getent to 32-bit, and then sign-extended it:

 (gdb) p /x -6185
 $6 = 0xffffe7d7

The workaround is to cast the function to the right type, like:

 (gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH")
 $3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...

IMO, we should do better than this.

I see the "assume-int" issue the same way I see printing bogus values
for optimized-out variables instead of "<optimized out>" -- I'd much
rather that the debugger tells me "I don't know" and tells me how to
fix it than showing me bogus misleading results, making me go around
tilting at windmills.

If GDB prints a signed integer when you're expecting a pointer or
aggregate, you at least have some sense that something is off, but
consider the case of the function actually returning a 64-bit integer.
For example, compile this without debug info:

 unsigned long long
 function ()
 {
   return 0x7fffffffffffffff;
 }

Currently, with pristine GDB, you get:

 (gdb) p function ()
 $1 = -1                      # incorrect
 (gdb) p /x function ()
 $2 = 0xffffffff              # incorrect

maybe after spending a few hours debugging you suspect something is
wrong with that -1, and do:

 (gdb) ptype function
 type = int ()

and maybe, just maybe, you realize that the function actually returns
unsigned long long.  And you try to fix it with:

(gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
 $3 = 0xffffffffffffffff      # incorrect

... which still produces the wrong result, because GDB simply applied
int to unsigned long long conversion.  Meaning, it sign-extended the
integer that it extracted from the return of the function, to 64-bits.

and then maybe, after asking around on IRC, you realize you have to
cast the function to a pointer of the right type, and call that.  It
won't be easy, but after a few missteps, you'll get to it:

.....  (gdb) p /x ((unsigned long long(*) ()) function) ()
 $666 = 0x7fffffffffffffff             # finally! :-)


So to improve on the user experience, this patch does the following
(interrelated) things:

 - makes no-debug-info functions no longer default to "int" as return
   type.  Instead, they're left with NULL/"<unknown return type>"
   return type.

    (gdb) ptype getenv
    type = <unknown return type> ()

 - makes calling a function with unknown return type an error.

    (gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
    'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type

 - and then to make it easier to call the function, makes it possible
   to _only_ cast the return of the function to the right type,
   instead of having to cast the function to a function pointer:

    (gdb) p (char *) getenv ("PATH")                      # now Just Works
    $3 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...

    (gdb) p ((char *(*) (const char *)) getenv) ("PATH")  # continues working
    $4 = 0x7fffffffe7d7 "/usr/local/bin:/"...

   I.e., it makes GDB default the function's return type to the type
   of the cast, and the function's parameters to the type of the
   arguments passed down.

After this patch, here's what you'll get for the "unsigned long long"
example above:

 (gdb) p function ()
 'function' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type
 (gdb) p /x (unsigned long long) function ()
 $4 = 0x7fffffffffffffff     # correct!

Note that while with "print" GDB shows the name of the function that
has the problem:

  (gdb) p getenv ("PATH")
  'getenv' has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type

which can by handy in more complicated expressions, "ptype" does not:

  (gdb) ptype getenv ("PATH")
  function has unknown return type; cast the call to its declared return type

This will be fixed in the next patch.
