[PATCH 0/3] Tidy some peeling code

[PATCH 0/3] Tidy some peeling code

[Giuliano Procida]

Hi Dodji.

This is a short series of very small clean-ups. All the changes relate
to helper functions that peel off some of the outer layers of a type
to see what might be inside.

There may be an opportunity to tighten up the checks being done in
functions like maybe_canonicalize_type and
types_have_similar_structure which are typical users of these helpers.

Regards,
Giuliano.

Giuliano Procida (3):
  abg-comparison.h: Remove stray declaration
  Remove unused is_reference_or_pointer_diff.
  Simplify peel_typedef_pointer_or_reference_type

[PATCH 1/3] abg-comparison.h: Remove stray declaration

[Giuliano Procida]

The functon is_reference_or_pointer_diff_to_non_basic_distinct_types
was declared in

ef9d20c9 Fix redundancy detection through fn ptr and typedef paths

but never defined. This commit removes it. There are no functional
changes.

	* include/abg-comparison
	(is_reference_or_pointer_diff_to_non_basic_distinct_types):
	Remove stray declaration.

[PATCH 2/3] Remove unused is_reference_or_pointer_diff.

[Giuliano Procida]

The function is_reference_or_pointer_diff was added in commit

85929105 Fix redundancy marking for change of types used directly

and was updated to peel typedefs as a first step in

ef9d20c9 Fix redundancy detection through fn ptr and typedef paths

which, however, also made it obsolete.

This commit removes the function's declaration and definition.
There are no functional changes.

	* include/abg-comparison.h (is_reference_or_pointer_diff):
	Drop function declaration.
	* src/abg-comparison.cc (is_reference_or_pointer_diff): Drop
	function definition.

[PATCH 3/3] Simplify peel_typedef_pointer_or_reference_type

[Giuliano Procida]

The second argument to this function controls whether CV qualifiers
should be stripped as well as the elements mentioned in the function
name. While it defaults to true, it is now always passed in as false.

The function contains incomplete code for peeling array types. This is
not needed or indeed wanted by its current callers.

This commits removes the peel_qual_type argument and removes the
associated behaviour. It removes the array peeling code.

There are no functional changes apart from no longer performing early
canonicalisation of certain array types.

I looked at the history of this function to see where the behaviours
originated.

bd161caa Make type_has_non_canonicalized_subtype() tighter

The function is added to help make more types, self-referential ones,
candidates for early canonicalisation.

5822798d Bug 18894 - Fix representation of enumerators in abixml format

This undid the previous change but the function remained.

c20c8c79 Fix infinite loop in peel_typedef_pointer_or_reference_type

As it says, fixing the overload that is currently in use.

6e36a438 Late canonicalize all types that reference classes when reading DWARF

This reintroduced the use of the function to control canonicalisation
by the detection of class types. It also added array peeling to the
function, but in a broken fashion as it would only work for certain
combinations of pointers, references or typedefs referring to arrays.

e9bdb488 Bug 19025 - abixml writer forgets to emit some member types

This added a use of the function in a map key comparison function.

8cc382c8 Fix emitting of referenced type in abixml writer

This undid the previous change.

1bee40c0 Do not forget to peel qualified type off when peeling types

This made the function remove CV qualifiers unconditionally.

e73901a5 Do not mark "distinct" diff nodes as being redundant

This made behaviour to remove CV qualifiers optional and newly added
is_mostly_distinct_diff disabled it.

5d6af8d5 Delay canonicalization for array and qualified types

This change switches maybe_canonicalize_type to not request CV
qualifer peeling from peel_typedef_pointer_or_reference_type.

It partially resolves the array type issue as they are separately
checked for. Presumably they shouldn't be peeled, but still are under
some circumstances.

The tests here could be subject to further refinement. Many types have
delayed canonicalisation already.

9cf76b11 abg-ir.cc: Improve types_have_similar_structure.

This change replaced the use of the function with a more delicate
matched peeling process for pointer and reference types plus
peel_qualified_or_typedef_type. It obsoleted the behaviour where CV
qualifiers were stripped.

	* include/abg-fwd.h (peel_qualified_or_typedef_type): Remove
	second argument in declarations of both overloads.
	* src/abg-comp-filter.cc (is_mostly_distinct_diff): Remove
	second argument to peel_qualified_or_typedef_type.
	* src/abg-dwarf-reader.cc (maybe_canonicalize_type): Likewise.
	* src/abg-ir.cc (peel_qualified_or_typedef_type): In both
	overloads, remove second argument peel_qual_type, simplify
	code with the assumption it was always false and remove
	incomplete array type peeling logic. In type_base_sptr
	overload, remove stray space.
