Actually, I think we/I need to rethink this whole globals thing.
Currently we're early dumping global *_DECLs, and hoping dwarf2out
recursion will also pick up types and any derivatives from the *_DECLs,
but taking a closer look I've noticed a lot of things are not being
dumped early.
For instance:
foo()
{
typedef int ITYPE;
ITYPE var = 5;
}
For the above code, var's DIE gets outputted _after_ the compilation
proper has been run here:
if (! declaration && outer_scope && TREE_CODE (outer_scope) !=
ERROR_MARK
&& (!DECL_STRUCT_FUNCTION (decl)
|| DECL_STRUCT_FUNCTION (decl)->gimple_df))
...
...
decls_for_scope (outer_scope, subr_die, 0);
I think we should be outputting DIEs for locals at the end of parsing,
so my patch going through level->names IMO is wrong. We should be
dumping all *_DECLs created by the FE, not just globally scoped ones.
The way to dump locals is by recursion. If the current process isn't
hitting these, that's a bug, but I don't think it means we need to
fundamentally change the approach. Why aren't we hitting that
decls_for_scope when we early dump foo?
Another example currently not being dumped early is...
function()
{
class Local {
public:
void loc_foo (void) { }
};
Local l;
l.loc_foo ();
}
...since loc_foo() is not in level->names.
Again, dumping function() should imply dumping Local and its members.
