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

169 names, but identical demangled names. For example, the GNU C++ v3

865 On entry, the table resides between msymbol[0] and msymbol[mcount].
866 On exit, it resides between msymbol[0] and msymbol[result_count].
868 When files contain multiple sources of symbol information, it is
869 possible for the minimal symbol table to contain many duplicate entries.
870 As an example, SVR4 systems use ELF formatted object files, which
871 usually contain at least two different types of symbol tables (a
872 standard ELF one and a smaller dynamic linking table), as well as
873 DWARF debugging information for files compiled with -g.
875 Without compacting, the minimal symbol table for gdb itself contains
876 over a 1000 duplicates, about a third of the total table size. Aside
877 from the potential trap of not noticing that two successive entries
878 identify the same location, this duplication impacts the time required
879 to linearly scan the table, which is done in a number of places. So we
880 just do one linear scan here and toss out the duplicates.
882 Note that we are not concerned here about recovering the space that
883 is potentially freed up, because the strings themselves are allocated
884 on the objfile_obstack, and will get automatically freed when the symbol
885 table is freed. The caller can free up the unused minimal symbols at
886 the end of the compacted region if their allocation strategy allows it.
888 Also note we only go up to the next to last entry within the loop
889 and then copy the last entry explicitly after the loop terminates.
891 Since the different sources of information for each symbol may
892 have different levels of "completeness", we may have duplicates
893 that have one entry with type "mst_unknown" and the other with a
894 known type. So if the one we are leaving alone has type mst_unknown,
895 overwrite its type with the type from the one we are compacting out. */

965 symbols) to an existing objfile.
967 Because of the way minimal symbols are collected, we generally have no way
968 of knowing what source language applies to any particular minimal symbol.
969 Specifically, we have no way of knowing if the minimal symbol comes from a
970 C++ compilation unit or not. So for the sake of supporting cached
971 demangled C++ names, we have no choice but to try and demangle each new one
972 that comes in. If the demangling succeeds, then we assume it is a C++
973 symbol and set the symbol's language and demangled name fields
974 appropriately. Note that in order to avoid unnecessary demanglings, and
975 allocating obstack space that subsequently can't be freed for the demangled
976 names, we mark all newly added symbols with language_auto. After
977 compaction of the minimal symbols, we go back and scan the entire minimal
978 symbol table looking for these new symbols. For each new symbol we attempt
979 to demangle it, and if successful, record it as a language_cplus symbol
980 and cache the demangled form on the symbol obstack. Symbols which don't
981 demangle are marked as language_unknown symbols, which inhibits future
982 attempts to demangle them if we later add more minimal symbols. */
