[gdb/ada] Fix gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp with gcc 7
This test in test-case gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp passes with gcc 8:
...
(gdb) print obj^M
$1 = (n => 3, a => "ABC", value => 93)^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp: print local as interface
...
but fails with gcc 7:
...
(gdb) print obj^M
$1 = ()^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.ada/dynamic-iface.exp: print local as interface
...
More concretely, we have trouble finding the type of obj. With gcc 8:
...
$ gdb -q -batch main -ex "b concrete.adb:20" -ex run -ex "ptype obj"
...
type = <ref> new concrete.intermediate with record
value: integer;
end record
...
and with gcc 7:
...
type = <ref> tagged record null; end record
...
The translation from tagged type to "full view" type happens in
ada_tag_value_at_base_address, where we hit this code:
...
/* Storage_Offset'Last is used to indicate that a dynamic offset to
top is used. In this situation the offset is stored just after
the tag, in the object itself. */
if (offset_to_top == last)
{
struct value *tem = value_addr (tag);
tem = value_ptradd (tem, 1);
tem = value_cast (ptr_type, tem);
offset_to_top = value_as_long (value_ind (tem));
}
...
resulting in an offset_to_top for gcc 8:
...
(gdb) p offset_to_top
$1 = -16
...
and for gcc 7:
...
(gdb) p offset_to_top
$1 = 16
...
The difference is expected, it bisects to gcc commit d0567dc0dbf ("[multiple
changes]") which mentions this change.
There's some code right after the code quoted above that deals with this
change:
...
else if (offset_to_top > 0)
{
/* OFFSET_TO_TOP used to be a positive value to be subtracted
from the base address. This was however incompatible with
C++ dispatch table: C++ uses a *negative* value to *add*
to the base address. Ada's convention has therefore been
changed in GNAT 19.0w 20171023: since then, C++ and Ada
use the same convention. Here, we support both cases by
checking the sign of OFFSET_TO_TOP. */
offset_to_top = -offset_to_top;
}
...
but it's not activated because of the 'else'.
Fix this by removing the 'else'.
Tested on x86_64-linux, with gcc 7.5.0.
