Bug ID: 60240
Summary: libbacktrace problems with nested functions
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: other
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: johannespfau at gmail dot com
Created attachment 32152
--> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=32152&action=edit
test case to reproduce the bug
Compile the test case with "-lbacktrace -g".
Actual output:
test.c:17 (null)
Expected output: The backtrace should contain the function name ('a') instead
of null.
AFAICS the problem is in read_function_entry. There's a "abbrev->has_children"
check that assumes all children of a function are inlined instances of the same
function. This is not true, children can also be nested functions. libbacktrace
should check the "DW_AT_inline" tag here.
