[PATCH] Always default to DWARF2_DEBUG if not specified, warn about deprecated STABS

[PATCH] Always default to DWARF2_DEBUG if not specified, warn about deprecated STABS

[Richard Biener]

This makes defaults.h choose DWARF2_DEBUG if PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE
is not specified by the target and NO_DEBUG if DWARF is not supported.

It also makes us warn when STABS is enabled and removes the corresponding
diagnostic from the Ada frontend.  The warnings are pruned from the
testsuite output via prune_gcc_output but somehow this doesn't work
for the tests in gfortran.dg/debug which are now failing with excess
errors.  That seems to be the case for other fortran .exp as well
when appending -gstabs, something which works fine for gcc or g++ dgs.

Bootstrapped / tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu with the mentioned
excess errors from all gfortran.dg/debug/

I need to still edit doc/invoke.texi somehow but I wonder if somebody
has insights into the testsuite pruning issue.

Richard.

Fortran emits warnings with a capitalized 'W'.  Your regexp only checks 
for lower-case.

This needs to be ".arning" or "\[Ww\]arning".


Ciao,
Michael.

[PATCH] Always default to DWARF2_DEBUG if not specified, warn about deprecated STABS

[Richard Biener]

This makes defaults.h choose DWARF2_DEBUG if PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE
is not specified by the target and errors out if DWARF DWARF is not supported.

It also makes us warn when STABS is enabled but not the preferred
debugging type and removes the corresponding diagnostic from the Ada frontend.
The warnings are pruned from the testsuite output via prune_gcc_output.

The following target configurations now explicitely default to STABS:
 pdp11-*-*   pdp11 is a.out, dwarf support is difficult
 hppa[12]*-*-hpux10*  does not support DWARF
 hppa[12]*-*-hpux11*  likewise
note that the hppa configs have been deprecated.

Targets with DWARF support will now see
> ./cc1 -quiet t.c -gstabs
t.c: warning: STABS debugging information is obsolete and not supported anymore

that is, -gstabs will still generate STABS but use will be diagnosed
on targets where DWARF is available.

I have built all targets from contrib/config-list.mk to make sure we
don't run into the #error and the following makes the STABS usage
explicit for pdp11 and hppa with SOM.

This completes the series of deprecating STABS for GCC 12.

Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

OK for trunk?

Thanks,
Richard.

I'm running build tests based on config-list.mk as well and see a good

That's odd.  My moxie-elf (and all the others I test) aren't seeing this.

That's odd. I did test the patch using config-list.mk - the patch sat in the comit tree for quite a while since that exercise (but unchanged), but I doubt anything significant changed in between.

Is that building the D frontend? I remember restricting the builds to C... 

I will check what's up with this next week.

Probably. I configure as

So it looks like tm_d.h is much more stripped down compared to regular
tm_p.h but also oddly enough config/default-d.c includes tm_d.h
while config/default-c.c explicitely documents itself to not do that.

In particular tm_d.h includes defaults.h which now has the requirement
that either PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE is defined or DWARF2_DEBUGGING_INFO
but the latter is usually picked up from config/elfos.h or similar
which are headers _not_ included via tm_d.h.

The old defaults.h resulted in NO_DEBUG if no PREFERRED_DEBUGGING_TYPE
and no DWARF2_DEBUGGING_INFO was defined.

I also note that default-d.o is not built on x86_64-linux?  Looks
like that's built only for

if [ "$target_has_targetdm" = "no" ]; then
  d_target_objs="$d_target_objs default-d.o"
fi

I note that for example config/glibc-d.c includes tm.h and tm_p.h
which would end up in proper definitions.

So ... for moxie-elf, did D really end up with NO_DEBUG previously?
Is that "correct" for D or was that a bug?  moxie-elf seems to use
default-c.c as well but that does not end including defaults.h.

Is it maybe a bug that tm_d.h includes defaults.h at all?  Should
"d defaults" be in a defaults-d.h instead?  If I remove the
defaults.h include from tm_d.h the build for moxie-elf succeeds.

Ian?  Joseph?

Thanks,
Richard.

I think the intent of that comment in default-c.c (which I wrote) was that 
if a separate tm_c.h is needed, it should use its own headers, disjoint 
from those used by tm.h.  In particular, as noted in the original patch 
submission 
<https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc-patches/2011-04/msg00434.html>, that 
avoids making macros used only to define hooks visible throughout the 
compiler.

It's a bug that it includes defaults.h, and a bug that it includes 
${cpu_type}/${cpu_type}.h.  Any macros used only to define D hooks should 
be in completely separate headers that aren't used elsewhere in the 
compiler.

> "d defaults" be in a defaults-d.h instead?  If I remove the

Yes, and likewise any target-specific overrides of such macros should be 
in a separate header, not ${cpu_type}/${cpu_type}.h.

So the what default-d.c is doing, is pulling down per-CPU back-end information to populate the targetdm structure where there's a supported CPU, but not platform.  The why it is doing that was I wanted to avoid both having #ifdef's in the D front-end, and altering gcc/target.def.

It seems then that either all TARGET_D_ macros should be moved to ${cpu_type}/${cpu_type}-d.h, or do one of alternatives I was trying to avoid.

Iain.

While I think the pdp11 bits arreved, the rest did not (yet). Just
checked my auto-builder logs. When building current HEAD as

Umm, most of those -elf targets do build.  See:

Another builder. :)  Randomly picking xtensa-elf, you're configuring
as

+ ../../gcc/configure --disable-analyzer --with-system-libunwind
--with-newlib --without-headers --disable-threads --disable-shared
--enable-languages=c,c++
--prefix=/home/jlaw/jenkins/workspace/xtensa-elf/xtensa-elf-obj/gcc/../../xtensa-elf-installed
--target=xtensa-elf

I guess the main difference that lets my builds fail might be
--enable-languages=all (vs. c,c++ in your case.)

Maybe you'd give that a try? (...and I'll trigger a build with just
c,c++ on my builder.)

I can, particularly now that the tester builds everything in a docker 
container -- it really didn't like having Ada tests (for example) 
appearing and disappearing based on whether or not the host had an Ada 
compiler installed.  I've also brought the computing resources in-house 
(literally, in my house), so I'm not worried about running out of Amazon 
credits anymore.

So ... just building for --enable-languages=c,c++ usually works for
the *-elf targets, but I'm interested in building as much code as
possible. Is it expected that with --enable-languages=all, all those
targets will break? Can we have a sane default here, or need the
maintainers decide for any given debug format?

Thanks,
  Jan-Benedict

It's not expected that they break - when targets do not decide on a default
format and they can handle DWARF that is automatically selected.  And
that shouldn't change whether you enable some language or not.
