libctf has long declared deserialized dictionaries (out of files or ELF sections or memory buffers or whatever) to be read-only: back in the furthest prehistory this was not the case, in that you could add a few sorts of type to such dicts, but attempting to do so often caused horrible memory corruption, so I banned the lot. But it turns out real consumers want it (notably DTrace, which synthesises pointers to types that don't have them and adds them to the ctf_open()ed dicts if it needs them). Let's bring it back again, but without the memory corruption and without the massive code duplication required in days of yore to distinguish between static and dynamic types: the representation of both types has been identical for a few years, with the only difference being that types as a whole are stored in a big buffer for types read in via ctf_open and per-type hashtables for newly-added types. So we discard the internally-visible concept of "readonly dictionaries" in favour of declaring the *range of types* that were already present when the dict was read in to be read-only: you can't modify them (say, by adding members to them if they're structs, or calling ctf_set_array on them), but you can add more types and point to them. (The API remains the same, with calls sometimes returning ECTF_RDONLY, but now they do so less often.) This is a fairly invasive change, mostly because code written since the ban was introduced didn't take the possibility of a static/dynamic split into account. Some of these irregularities were hard to define as anything but bugs. Notably: - The symbol handling was assuming that symbols only needed to be looked for in dynamic hashtabs or static linker-laid-out indexed/ nonindexed layouts, but now we want to check both in case people added more symbols to a dict they opened. - The code that handles type additions wasn't checking to see if types with the same name existed *at all* (so you could do ctf_add_typedef (fp, "foo", bar) repeatedly without error). This seems reasonable for types you just added, but we probably *do* want to ban addition of types with names that override names we already used in the ctf_open()ed portion, since that would probably corrupt existing type relationships. (Doing things this way also avoids causing new errors for any existing code that was doing this sort of thing.) - ctf_lookup_variable entirely failed to work for variables just added by ctf_add_variable: you had to write the dict out and read it back in again before they appeared. - The symbol handling remembered what symbols you looked up but didn't remember their types, so you could look up an object symbol and then find it popping up when you asked for function symbols, which seems less than ideal. Since we had to rejig things enough to be able to distinguish function and object symbols internally anyway (in order to give suitable errors if you try to add a symbol with a name that already existed in the ctf_open()ed dict), this bug suddenly became more visible and was easily fixed. We do not (yet) support writing out dicts that have been previously read in via ctf_open() or other deserializer (you can look things up in them, but not write them out a second time). This never worked, so there is no incompatibility; if it is needed at a later date, the serializer is a little bit closer to having it work now (the only table we don't deal with is the types table, and that's because the upcoming CTFv4 changes are likely to make major changes to the way that table is represented internally, so adding more code that depends on its current form seems like a bad idea). There is a new testcase that tests much of this, in particular that modification of existing types is still banned and that you can add new ones and chase them without error. libctf/ * ctf-impl.h (struct ctf_dict.ctf_symhash): Split into...
