Shahab Vahedi af3f129d92 Handle type-casting in template parameter list when hashing symbols
Due to a logical bug in gdb/cp-support.c:cp_search_name_hash(), GDB
may not be able to find a symbol when asked by the user.  See the
accompanying test for such demonstration.

The cp_search_name_hash() cannot correctly handle a (demangled) symbol
that comprises of type-casting for the first parameter in its template
parameter list, e.g.:

  foo<(enum_test)0>(int, int)

In this example, the processing logic in cp_search_name_hash() considers
the "foo<" string for hashing instead of "foo".  This is due to a faulty
logic in the processing loop that tries to _keep_ hashing if a '<' char
with the following property is encountered:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
for (const char *string = search_name; *string != '\0'; ++string)
  {
    ...

    if (*string == '(')
      break;

    ...

    /* Ignore template parameter list.  */
    if (string[0] == '<'
        && string[1] != '(' && string[1] != '<' && string[1] != '='
        && string[1] != ' ' && string[1] = '\0')
      break;

    ...
    hash = SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT (hash, *string);
  }
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Ostensibly, this logic strives to bail out of the processing loop as
soon as the beginning of an argument list is encountered, "(int, int)"
in the example, or the beginning of a template parameter list, the
"<(enum_test)0>" in the example.  However, when "string" is pointing
at '<', the following incorrect logic takes precedence:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
for (const char *string = search_name; *string != '\0'; ++string)
  {
    if (*string == '(')
      break;
    ...
    if (string[0] == '<' && string[1] != '(' ...)
      break;

    hash = SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT (hash, *string);
  }
---------------------------------------------------------------------

In "foo<(enum_test)0>(int, int)", the '(' char that is positioned after
the '<' char causes the "if" condition at the end of the loop not to
"break".  As a result, the '<' is considered for hashing and at the
beginning of the next iteration, the loop is exited because "string"
points to '(' char.

It's obvious that the intention of the "if" condition at the end of the
loop body is to handle cases where the method name is "operator<",
"operator<<", or "operator<=".  While fixing the issue, I've re-written
the logic as such to make that more explicit.  Still, the complexity of
the function remains O(n).  It is worth mentioning that in the same
file the "find_toplevel_char()" follows the same explicit logic.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
