Subject: [Bug tools/30772] New: dwarflint checking for specification recursion
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2023 18:50:09 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-30772-10460@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30772

            Bug ID: 30772
           Summary: dwarflint checking for specification recursion
           Product: elfutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: tools
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org
                CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

This idea comes from this thread:

https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-August/201655.html

The idea is that if a DIE refers to itself via a chain
of DW_AT_specification (or the other ways a DIE can refer
to another), then dwarflint ought to warn, as recursion like
this is never valid.
