Description Josh Stone 2010-09-15 17:55:43 UTC
Description of problem:
In an inlined function, gcc generates a DW_TAG_label with a DW_AT_low_pc that's not contained by the inlined_subroutine DIE.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gcc-4.4.4-10.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:

A simple test program, compile with -g -O2:
  extern void exit (int);
  static void foo (void)
  {
   x:
    exit (0);
  }
  int main (void)
  {
    foo ();
    return 0;
  }
  
Actual results:

$ eu-readelf --debug-dump=info badlabel
[...]
 [    40]    subprogram
             external             (flag) Yes
             name                 (strp) "main"
             decl_file            (data1) 1
             decl_line            (data1) 9

               high_pc              (addr) 0x00000000004004db
               call_file            (data1) 1
               call_line            (data1) 11
 [    7a]        lexical_block
                 low_pc               (addr) 0x00000000004004d4 <main+0x4>
                 high_pc              (addr) 0x00000000004004db
 [    8b]          label
                   abstract_origin      (ref4) [    3a]
                   low_pc               (addr) 0x00000000004004d0 <main>

Note how the label at 4d0 is outside the range of its inlined function DIE, from 4d4-4db.

Expected results:
The label ought to be contained by its proper DIE scope.

Additional info:
Using -O1 puts the label in the right place, even though foo is still inlined.

Roland has a more complicated testcase where this bad label placement has more impact.  He's using labels to try to give a well-defined probe/breakpoint for variable access, so it's harmful when the label pc isn't even in the right lexical scope.

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2011-05-31 13:24:44 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 13.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '13'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

The reproducer still has this issue with gcc-4.6.0-7.fc15.x86_64

Hi Josh Stone,
            Please update your gcc version.

Comment 4 Josh Stone 2012-01-16 20:42:01 UTC

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 20:13:05 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2013-08-01 18:25:14 UTC
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 12 Josh Stone 2015-01-09 23:08:07 UTC
It's possible to automate this check with dwgrep, e.g.:

$ dwgrep -e 'entry dup parent ?(address swap low !contains)' ./badlabel
---
[73]    lexical_block
        low_pc (addr)   0x400444;
        high_pc (data8) 7;
[84]    label
        abstract_origin (ref4)  [35];
        low_pc (addr)   0x400440;
---
[73]    lexical_block
        low_pc (addr)   0x400444;

[91]    GNU_call_site
        low_pc (addr)   0x40044b;
        abstract_origin (ref4)  [ae];

I haven't noticed the call site before, but that's sitting right at the end address of main.  DIE "ae" is the exit subprogram.
