[Bug debug/19521] New: omitted stab for gcov initialization function

- Reply-to: gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org
gcov support entails an initialization function named "__GLOBAL__I_0_noop".
GCC omits function-begin stab for this function.
Here is the commandline:
[morris:/Volumes/sandbox/stuart] hasting2%
\/Volumes/sandbox/stuart/gcc.fsf.obj/gcc/xgcc -B
\/Volumes/sandbox/stuart/gcc.fsf.obj/gcc -g gcov.c -fprofile-arcs \
-ftest-coverage -S
Given the .s file from the above, here is a check of the output:
[morris:/Volumes/sandbox/stuart] hasting2% egrep 'noop|main' gcov.s
.globl _noop
_noop:
.stabs "noop:F(0,1)=(0,1)",36,0,7,_noop
.stabs "",36,0,0,Lscope0-_noop
.globl _main
_main:
bl _noop
.stabs "main:F(0,2)=r(0,2);-2147483648;2147483647;",36,0,11,_main
.stabn 192,0,0,_main
.stabs "",36,0,0,Lscope1-_main
__GLOBAL__I_0_noop:
.stabs "",36,0,0,Lscope2-__GLOBAL__I_0_noop
.long __GLOBAL__I_0_noop
.long __GLOBAL__I_0_noop
[morris:/Volumes/sandbox/stuart] hasting2%
The 'stabs "",36' record seems to signify the end-of-the __GLOBAL__I_0_noop
function. The matching start-function record is missing; compare with the noop
and main functions.
The testcase is from the GCC testsuite: gcc/testsuite/gcc.misc-tests/gcov-1.c gcov.c
Since it's short, here is the testcase:
/* Test Gcov basics. */
/* { dg-options "-fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage" } */
/* { dg-do run { target native } } */
void noop ()
{
}
int main ()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) /* count(11) */
noop (); /* count(10) */
return 0; /* count(1) */
}
/* { dg-final { run-gcov gcov-1.c } } */
