I put together a repo case that might help make this clearer (attached)

Attachment: repo.tar
Description: Unix tar archive



we have a test program with three translation units.  One has C++ methods and 
was built with debug info ("foo"), one has C++ methods and was built without 
debug info ("bar").  It tries calling these from lldb:


(lldb) p (void)foo('c')
in foo(char)
(lldb) p (void)foo(5)
in foo(int)
(lldb) p (void)foo(5, 5)
in foo(int, int)

We had debug info for foo(), called the correct methods.


(lldb) p (void)bar('c')
in bar(char *)
(lldb) p (void)bar(5)
in bar(char *)
(lldb) p (void)bar(5, 5)
in bar(char *)


Here, we have no debug info for bar(), so we grabbed the first bar() method we 
found and used it for all calls.  This is a problem.


(lldb) p (void)_Z3barc('c')
in bar(char)
(lldb) p (void)_Z3bari(5)
in bar(int)
(lldb) p (void)_Z3barii(5,5)
in bar(int, int)

Calling the mangled name bar()'s directly works as expected.



Davide is trying to solve that middle one.  I think the problem he was working 
on is where we had an expression using operator== and the first "decl" we found 
of this was in a no-debug-info translation unit, and that randomly chosen 
operator== was used when there WAS debug info for this operator== in a 
different translation unit in the process.

The question I have is -- should this even be allowed.  Should you be able to 
call a C++ method using a demangled name with no debug info?  I'm trying to 
think of a case where people do this today.  Clearly it does not work correctly 
today for overloaded functions.  And apparently this could be chosen over a 
debug info definition that might appear elsewhere in the process?  I didn't try 
to test that.
