Summary: discrepancies between DW_AT_name and demangler Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: debug AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: tro...@gcc.gnu.org >From the tail of this email: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-05/msg00524.html There are a number of places where DW_AT_name disagrees with the demangler: Computed physname <WTF::FixedArray<double, 8u>::data()> does not match demangled <WTF::FixedArray<double, 8ul>::data()> (from linkage <_ZN3WTF10FixedArrayIdLm8EE4dataEv>) - FYI its DW_TAG_class_type DW_AT_name is: FixedArray<double, 8u> Computed physname <WTF::PtrHash<void const*>::hash(void*)> does not match demangled <WTF::PtrHash<void const*>::hash(void const*)> (from linkage <_ZN3WTF7PtrHashIPKvE4hashES2_>) - const issue Computed physname <WebCore::RangeBoundaryPoint::offset()> does not match demangled <WebCore::RangeBoundaryPoint::offset() const> (from linkage <_ZNK7WebCore18RangeBoundaryPoint6offsetEv>) - maybe different const issue (I didn't verify the const issues in the DWARF, it may be a gdb bug) I think it would be best if DW_AT_name matched the demangler in all cases. (I think it is arguable whether DW_AT_name should include the template parameters; but we should at least discuss on the gdb list before considering this, and anyway this would require a complete solution to PR 41736) See also PR 33861
