            Bug ID: 30863
           Summary: [gdb/symtab] PU without import ignored in cooked index
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: symtab
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: vries at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: ---

[ This is with an updated version of the patch series submitted here (
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2023-August/201887.html ). ]

Consider the exec of test-case gdb.dwarf2/imported-unit-runto-main.exp, before
adding the .gdb_index section.  It has a backward inter-cu intra-shard
reference:
...
$ gdb -q -batch -iex "maint set worker-threads 0" imported-unit-runto-main
handle_deferred_entries, intra-shard case
parent map

  0x00000000000000fc 0x0
Resolve deferred: 0xfb -> 0xd5: no parent
...

The dependency is resolved in the inter-shard case, which assumes that all CUs
have been processed, and consequently doesn't check the parent valid map.

But if we look at the parent valid map, we don't find 0xd5.  So the "no parent"
is not a case of, we've processed 0xd5 and found that is has no parent, but
we've not processed the PU containing 0xd5.

The problem is that we have a PU without import, and consequently no CU wins
the race to read it.

This doesn't cause a problem with the current implementation (because "not
processed" and "no parent" look the same), but we can reproduce the same
problem with test-case forward-spec-inter-cu.exp. By changing one of the cus
into a pu:
...
