[RFA/dwarf 2/2] Mark all functions as prototyped except C functions.


Hello,

This is the part of the patch series that inverts the logic determining
whether or not a function should be marked as prototyped. I took this
opportunity to factorize a bit the code setting the PROTOTYPED flag.
Although the gain is very marginal, I think it helps because a large
block now becomes very small, thus showing its intent a little more
clearly.

Below is the adjusted problem description which will be part of
the commit RH.

----

This makes sure that the types of the arguments are taken into account
when performing an inferior function call to a non-C function.
In particular, this makes sure that the arguments are appropriatly
converted to the correct type.

For instance, on x86_64-linux, with the following Ada code:

   procedure Set_Float (F : Float) is
   begin
      Global_Float := F;
   end Set_Float;

The following sequence shows that Float arguments are incorrectly
passed (Ada's Float type is the equivalent of type "float" in C):

    (gdb) call set_float (2.0)
    (gdb) print global_float
    $1 = 0.0

Putting a breakpoint inside set_float to inspect the value of
register xmm0 gives the first hint of the problem:

    (gdb) p $xmm0
    $2 = (v4_float => (0 => 0.0, 2.0, 0.0, 0.0),
          v2_double => (0 => 2.0, 0.0),
    [...]

It shows that the argument was passed as a double.

The code responsible for doing appropriate type conversions
for the arguments (value_arg_coerce) found that our function
was not prototyped, and thus could not use typing information
for the arguments. Instead, it defaulted to the value of "set
coerce-float-to-double", which by default is true, to determine
the argument type.

The DWARF standard implies that the DW_AT_prototyped is only
meaningful for C. So there is no reason to expect this flag
to be set for any other language.  We assume, instead, that
functions are always prototyped for all non-C languages...

gdb/ChangeLog:

        * dwarf2read.c (prototyped_function_p): New function.
        (read_subroutine_type): Use it.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

        * gdb.ada/float_param: New testcase.

Tested on x86_64-linux. No regression.

OK to commit?
