[patch] Make cxxfilt demangle internal-linkage templates

[Paul Pluzhnikov]

Greetings,

I've been redirected here from binutils:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-08/msg00052.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-08/msg00056.html

The following source:

  template<typename T> static void f();
  void g() { f<int>(); }

results in "_Z1fIiEvv" under g++, but in "_ZL1fIiEvv" under clang.

Richard Smith says:

  The ABI doesn't cover manglings for local symbols ...
  ... and c++filt is not able to cope with the L prefix here.

  I'm having a hard time seeing how this isn't a g++ bug and a matching
  c++filt bug.

It's hard for me to argue that this is a 'g++' bug (since there is no
ABI violation here), but c++filt should be able to handle this, and does
with attached patch.

Ok for trunk?

Thanks,

OK, I finally took a look.

The demangler treates _ZL as a local-source-name.  This is not part of
the C++ ABI (http://codesourcery.com/cxx-abi/).  It was added by Geoff
Keating: http://gcc.gnu.org/PR31775,
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2007-05/msg00309.html .

With Geoff's patch the demangling is

_Z <encoding>
  <encoding> => <(data) name>
_Z <(data) name>
  <name> => <unscoped-name>
_Z <unscoped-name>
  <unscoped-name> => <unqualified-name>
_Z <unqualified-name>
  <unqualified-name> => <local-source-name> (not in ABI)
_Z <local-source-name>
  <local-source-name> => L <source-name> [<discriminator>] (not in ABI)
_ZL <source-name> [<discriminator>]
  <source-name> => <number> <identifier>
_ZL1f [<discriminator>]

The discriminator is not present, and at this point we are in trouble
because IiE is extraneous.

But really the demangling should be

_Z <encoding>
  <encoding> => <(data) name>
_Z <(data) name>
  <name> => <unscoped-template-name> <template-args>
_Z <unscoped-template-name> <template-args>
  <unscoped-template-name> => <unscoped-name>
_Z <unscoped-name> <template-args>
  <unscoped-name> => <unqualified-name>
_Z <unqualified-name> <template-args>
  <unqualified-name> => <local-source-name> (not in ABI)
_Z <local-source-name> <template-args>
  <local-source-name> => L <source-name> [<discriminator>] (not in ABI)
_ZL <source-name> [<discriminator>] <template-args>
  <source-name> => <number> <identifier>
_ZL1f [<discriminator>] <template-args>
  [<discriminator>] =>
_ZL1f <template-args>

etc.

So it looks to me like Geoff's original patch was wrong, and your
patch is correct.

So this is OK.

Thanks.

Sorry for ignoring this for so long.

Ian

I think this should also be send to the GCC List as libiberty is
officially maintained by GCC.

Thanks,
