            Bug ID: 17534
           Summary: GDB failed to set bp on source line that includes an
                    inlined function call
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: breakpoints
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: flameroc at gmail dot com

When try to set breakpoint on a source line that includes an inlined function
call, gdb complains:

No line 19 in file "g.c".
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n

But from the view of user, indeed there is a souce code at line 19. Is there
any way to allow setting bp on line 19 to improve debug experience? Here are
complete case and steps to reproduce this issue on x86:

(gdb) !cat -n g.c
     1    volatile int x;
     2    
     3    static inline void NVIC_EnableIRQ(int IRQn)
     4    {
     5      volatile int y;
     6      y = IRQn;
     7    }
     8    
     9    __attribute__( ( always_inline ) ) static inline void __WFI(void)
    10    {
    11        __asm volatile ("nop");
    12    }
    13    
    14    int main(void) {
    15    
    16        x= 42;
    17    
    18        if (x)
    19          NVIC_EnableIRQ(16);
    20        else
    21          NVIC_EnableIRQ(18);
    22    
    23        while (1)
    24          {
    25        __WFI();
    26          }
    27    
    28        return 0 ;
    29    }
    30    
(gdb) b g.c:19
No line 19 in file "g.c".
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n
(gdb) 

The g.o is generated from command "../x86/install/bin/gcc -O2 -g3 -c g.c". The
gcc is from pretty recent gcc trunk.

I checked the assembly code and found the call on line 19 is turnd into below
assembly code:

.LBB9:
        .loc 1 6 0
        movl    $16, -8(%rsp)

If I add more dwarf line information here like below:

.LBB9:
        .loc 1 6 0
        .loc 1 19 0
        movl    $16, -8(%rsp)

I am able to set the bp on line 19. I guess I can improve gcc to generate more
dwarf line information to solve this issue. But not sure whether it is a
correct direction. Could somebody please give some advice? Thanks.

--- Comment #1 from Hannes Domani <ssbssa at sourceware dot org> ---
I can reproduce this problem when I use gcc 7 or older to compile the example,
but with gcc 8.1 or newer, the breakpoint on line 19 works fine (it doesn't
matter which gdb version, I tested from 7.8 to current master):

(gdb) b 19
Breakpoint 1 at 0x402bfd: file gdb-17534.c, line 19.
(gdb) r
Starting program: C:\src\tests\gdb-17534-8.1.exe
[New Thread 1140.0x404]

Breakpoint 1, main () at gdb-17534.c:19
19          NVIC_EnableIRQ(16);


Not sure if this means that we can close this.

I'm closing this since this was probably a debug info problem on gcc side that
was already fixed.
