            Bug ID: 29541
           Summary: gdb.compile/compile-cplus-anonymous.exp shows failures
                    with glibc debuginfo installed
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: compile
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: kevinb at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm seeing failures in the gdb test gdb.compile/compile-cplus-anonymous.exp
when run, with glibc debuginfo installed, on Fedora releases ranging from
Fedora 29 thru 37 (and rawhide, currently numbered 38 too).  I also see these
failures on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS once a missing symlink is installed for libcc1.so.

To reproduce this problem on Fedora, do (as root or using sudo):

[root@f36-1 gdb]# debuginfo-install -y glibc

Then, using a recent (or even old) build of upstream gdb, while in the gdb
directory (where the 'gdb' executable is found), do:

make check TESTS=gdb.compile/compile-cplus-anonymous.exp

I see the following failures / summary:

On Fedora, glibc debuginfo can be removed as follows:

[root@f36-1 gdb]# dnf remove -y glibc-debuginfo

Running gdb.compile/compile-cplus-anonymous.exp with glibc debuginfo NOT
installed shows this summary:

                === gdb Summary ===

# of expected passes            34
# of known failures             12

Testing an upstream build of GDB on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS shows:

# of untested testcases         1

I found that libcc1.so was missing.  So, I did:

root@u2204-1:~# cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
root@u2204-1:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu# ln -sn libcc1.so.0 libcc1.so

With that symlink in place, I see the following failures / summary on Ubuntu
22.04 LTS:

Back on Fedora, if I run the initial part of the test by hand, without glibc
debuginfo installed AND without debuginfod, I see:

(gdb)

I.e. 'compile code var = anon_e' works as expected.

Enabling debuginfod (but still without glibc debuginfo installed system-wide)
shows the following behavior:

(gdb) set debuginfod enabled on
... [same commands and similar output shown above]
(gdb) compile code var = anon_e

GDB is hung at this point, but Ctrl-C returns the user to the GDB prompt. This
explains the (many) timeouts that I see on Fedora.

I see this same behavior when I disable debuginfod, but have glibc debuginfo
installed via the 'debuginfo-install glibc' command shown earlier. In the
interest of brevity (!), I won't paste that nearly identical output.  (The part
that's different is the use of 'set debuginfod enabled off')

On Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, when running the test by hand, without debuginfod, but
with the libcc1.so symlink fixed as mentioned earlier, I see:

(gdb) set debuginfod enabled off
... [snipped session which is largely the same as that shown for Fedora]
(gdb) compile code var = anon_e

Compilation failed.
(gdb) 

The main difference when running this on Ubuntu is that, after printing out the
messages related to the internal compiler error, GDB does not hang, but instead
prints "Compilation failed.", returning to the GDB prompt.  This explains the
difference between the number of failures shown for Ubuntu versus Fedora.  On
Fedora, the remaining tests failed due to the timeout. On Ubuntu, some gdb
tests succeeded; those which attempt to 'compile' something else fail.
