In the test gdb.base/funcargs.exp, there's this function:
void recurse (SVAL a, int depth)
{
a.s = a.i = a.l = --depth;
if (depth == 0)
hitbottom ();
else
recurse (a, depth);
}
The test script places a breakpoint in hitbottom, and runs the
executable which calls recurse with an initial depth of 4.
When GDB hits the breakpoint in hitbottom the testscript performs a
backtrace, and examines 'a' at each level.
The problem is that 'a' is not live after either the call to
'hitbottom' or the call to 'recurse', and as a result the test fails.
In the particular case I was looking at GCC for RISC-V 32-bit, the
variable 'a' is on the stack and GCC selects the register $ra (the
return address register) to hold the pointer to 'a'. This is fine,
because, by the time the $ra register is needed to hold a return
address (calling hitbottom or recurse) then 'a' is dead.
In this patch I propose that a use of 'a' is added after the calls to
hitbottom and recurse, this should cause the compiler to keep 'a'
around, which should ensure GDB can find it.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/funcargs.c (use_a): New function.
(recurse): Call use_a.

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.
