have DW_AT_signature attribute. That wasn't the case in DWARF version 3.
From DWARF version 4:
If the complete declaration of a type has been placed in a separate type unit,
an incomplete declaration of that type in the compilation unit may provide the
unique 64-bit signature of the type using a DW_AT_signature attribute.
This patch adds an extra field in TyStOrUn structure (typeR). This field is
reference to other TyEnt that is placed in separate type unit. Because of the new
field in TyStOrUn structure we need to add an extra case in parse_type_DIE
that will put the right reference to other TyEnt and an extra case in
ML_(describe_type) that will describe type when the ty->Te.TyStOrUn.typeR field
is used.
This patch is resolving the problem with memcheck/tests/dw4 test when it's
compiled with compiler that will emit DW_AT_signature under the DW_TAG_structure_type.

We already accepted DW_TAG_typedef without a name for Ada. But g++ for
OpenMP can also emit such nameless DW_TAG_typedefs. Just accept them.

GCC allows incomplete enums as GNU extension.
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Incomplete-Enums.html
These are marked as DW_AT_declaration and won't have a size.
They can only be used in declaration or as pointer types.
You can't allocate variables or storage using such an enum type.
So don't require a size for such enum types.

This patch changes the way static variables are
recorded by readdwarf3.c (when giving --read-var-info=yes),
improving the way such variables are described.
Currently:
A static variable does not have the DW_AT_external tag.
So, readdwarf3.c does not consider it a global variable.
It is rather considered a "local" variable.
When it is recorded, it is associated to a range of program counters
(the functions in the file where it is visible).
However, even if the static variable is only visible
in the source file where it is declared, it can in reality
be used by any range of program counters, typically
by having the address of the local variable passed
to other functions.
Such local variable can then only be described
when the program counter is in the range of program
counters for which it has been recorded.
However, this (local) description is obtained
by a kludge in debuginfo.c (around line 3285).
This kludge then produces a strange description,
telling that the variable has been declared in
frame 0 of a thread (see second example below).
The kludge is not always able to describe
the address (if the IP of the tid is in another file than
where the variable has been declared).
I suspect the kludge can sometimes describe the var as being
declared in an unrelated thread
(e.g. if an error is triggered by tid 5, but tid1 is by
luck in an IP corresponding to the recorded range).
The patch changes the way a static variable is recorded:
if DW_AT_external tag is found, a variable is marked as global.
If a variable is not external, but is seen when level is 1,
then we record the variable as a global variable (i.e.
with a full IP range).
This improves the way such static variable are described:
* they are described even if being accessed by other files.
* their description is not in an artificial "thread frame".
First example:
**************
a variable cannot be described because it is
accessed by a function in another file:

versions of gcc as shipped with Fedora 12. Specific changes include:
- Vastly increase the number of opcodes we understand how to
evaluate when processing a location expression.
- Process frame unwind data from the debug_frame ELF section as
well as the eh_frame section.
- Handle version 3 CIEs in frame unwind data.
- Handle the compact form of DW_AT_data_member_location which just
gives a constant offset from the start of it's base type instead
of a full location expression.

This commit tidies up and rationalises what could be called the
"messaging" system -- that part of V to do with presenting output to
the user. In particular it brings significant improvements to XML
output.
Changes are:
* XML and normal text output now have separate file descriptors,
which solves longstanding problems for XML consumers caused by
the XML output getting polluted by unexpected non-XML output.
* This also means that we no longer have to hardwire all manner
of output settings (verbosity, etc) when XML is requested.
* The XML output format has been revised, cleaned up, and made
more suitable for use by error detecting tools in general
(various Memcheck-specific features have been removed). XML
output is enabled for Ptrcheck and Helgrind, and Memcheck is
updated to the new format.
* One side effect is that the behaviour of VG_(message) has been
made to be consistent with printf: it no longer automatically
adds a newline at the end of the output. This means multiple
calls to it can be used to build up a single line message; or a
single call can write a multi-line message. The ==pid==
preamble is automatically inserted at each newline.
* VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, ..args..) now has the abbreviated form
VG_(UMSG)(..args..); ditto VG_(DMSG) for Vg_DebugMsg and
VG_(EMSG) for Vg_DebugExtraMsg. A couple of other useful
printf derivatives have been added to pub_tool_libcprint.h,
most particularly VG_(vcbprintf).
* There's a small change in the core-tool interface to do with
error handling: VG_(needs_tool_errors) has a new method
void (*before_pp_Error)(Error* err) which, if non-NULL, is
called just before void (*pp_Error)(Error* err). This is to
give tools the chance to look at errors before any part of them
is printed, so they can print any XML preamble they like.
* coregrind/m_errormgr.c has been overhauled and cleaned up, and
is a bit simpler and more commented. In particular pp_Error
and VG_(maybe_record_error) are significantly changed.
The diff is huge, but mostly very boring. Most of the changes
are of the form
- VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d", n);
+ VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d\n", n);
Unfortunately as a result of this, it touches a large number
of source files.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10465
following improvements:
- Arch/OS/platform-specific files are now included/excluded via the
preprocessor, rather than via the build system. This is more consistent
(we use the pre-processor for small arch/OS/platform-specific chunks
within files) and makes the build system much simpler, as the sources for
all programs are the same on all platforms.
- Vast amounts of cut+paste Makefile.am code has been factored out. If a
new platform is implemented, you need to add 11 extra Makefile.am lines.
Previously it was over 100 lines.
- Vex has been autotoolised. Dependency checking now works in Vex (no more
incomplete builds). Parallel builds now also work. --with-vex no longer
works; it's little use and a pain to support. VEX/Makefile is still in
the Vex repository and gets overwritten at configure-time; it should
probably be renamed Makefile-gcc to avoid possible problems, such as
accidentally committing a generated Makefile. There's a bunch of hacky
copying to deal with the fact that autotools don't handle same-named files
in different directories. Julian plans to rename the files to avoid this
problem.
- Various small Makefile.am things have been made more standard automake
style, eg. the use of pkginclude/pkglib prefixes instead of rolling our
own.
- The existing five top-level Makefile.am include files have been
consolidated into three.
- Most Makefile.am files now are structured more clearly, with comment
headers separating sections, declarations relating to the same things next
to each other, better spacing and layout, etc.
- Removed the unused exp-ptrcheck/tests/x86 directory.
- Renamed some XML files.
- Factored out some duplicated dSYM handling code.
- Split auxprogs/ into auxprogs/ and mpi/, which allowed the resulting
Makefile.am files to be much more standard.
- Cleaned up m_coredump by merging a bunch of files that had been
overzealously separated.
The net result is 630 fewer lines of Makefile.am code, or 897 if you exclude
the added Makefile.vex.am, or 997 once the hacky file copying for Vex is
removed. And the build system is much simpler.

I tried using 'svn merge' to do the merge but it did a terrible job and
there were bazillions of conflicts. So instead I just took the diff between
the branch and trunk at r10155, applied the diff to the trunk, 'svn add'ed
the added files (no files needed to be 'svn remove'd) and committed.
