[PATCH] opcodes/riscv: Hide '.L0 ' fake symbols

[Andrew Burgess]

The RISC-V assembler generates fake labels with the name '.L0 ' as
part of the debug information (see
gas/config/tc-riscv.h:FAKE_LABEL_NAME).

The problem is that currently, when disassembling an object file, the
output looks like this (this is an example from the GDB testsuite, but
is pretty representative of anything with debug information):

000000000000001e <main>:

20: f406 sd ra,40(sp)
22: f022 sd s0,32(sp)

76: 000080e7 jalr ra # 72 <.L0 +0x8>

The frequent repeated '.L0 ' labels are pointless, as they are
non-unique there's no way to match a use of '.L0 ' to its appearence
in the output, so we'd be better off just not printing it at all.
That's what this patch does by defining a 'symbol_is_valid' method for
RISC-V. With this commit, the same disassembly now looks like this:

000000000000001e <main>:

You are adding code and a break in the middle of two unreleated cases.
That will break the powerpc case. Moreover, there is already another
use of case bfd_arch_riscv, so this cannot even compile.

Gah! My bad. Apologies for that. I've fixed this below.

Umm, not in my version of master, last commit (before mine)
b570a287cfb. I guess we're both making mistakes today :)

I've included the version of disassmble_init_for_target as I see it
(before my patch) below, so you can confirm this matches what you
see (maybe you do have something different somehow). I see no other
mention of riscv. My patch definitely builds (that's how I generated
the output in the commit message).

Thanks again for your feedback.

Andrew

opcodes/riscv: Hide '.L0 ' fake symbols

The RISC-V assembler generates fake labels with the name '.L0 ' as

They are also used for relaxable relocations, such as a medany auipc
instruction.

You have a comment here pointing at GAS, but there is no comment in
GAS pointing here. The value for FAKE_LABEL_NAME has already changed
at least once in gas, so we should have a better connection here to
make sure that a future gas change won't accidentally break this
disassembler support. Putting a comment in gas pointing here would be
OK. Another possible solution is to move the definition of
FAKE_LABEL_NAME into include/opcodes/riscv.h, and then you can use it
directly here. gas/config/tc-riscv.h already includes this header
file so I think this should work OK.

You also have a typo in the comment, edefined -> defined.

opcodes/riscv: Hide '.L0 ' fake symbols

The RISC-V assembler generates fake labels with the name '.L0 ' as
part of the debug information (see
gas/config/tc-riscv.h:FAKE_LABEL_NAME).

The problem is that currently, when disassembling an object file, the
output looks like this (this is an example from the GDB testsuite, but
is pretty representative of anything with debug information):

000000000000001e <main>:
1e: 7179 addi sp,sp,-48
20: f406 sd ra,40(sp)
22: f022 sd s0,32(sp)

5a: 00078513 mv a0,a5
5e: 00000097 auipc ra,0x0
62: 000080e7 jalr ra # 5e <.L0 +0xe>

0000000000000066 <.L0 >:
66: 4785 li a5,1
68: a869 j 102 <.L0 >

000000000000006a <.L0 >:
6a: 000007b7 lui a5,0x0
6e: 00078513 mv a0,a5
72: 00000097 auipc ra,0x0
76: 000080e7 jalr ra # 72 <.L0 +0x8>

The frequent repeated '.L0 ' labels are pointless, as they are
non-unique there's no way to match a use of '.L0 ' to its appearence
in the output, so we'd be better off just not printing it at all.
That's what this patch does by defining a 'symbol_is_valid' method for
RISC-V. With this commit, the same disassembly now looks like this:

000000000000001e <main>:
1e: 7179 addi sp,sp,-48
20: f406 sd ra,40(sp)
22: f022 sd s0,32(sp)
24: 1800 addi s0,sp,48
26: 87aa mv a5,a0
28: feb43023 sd a1,-32(s0)
2c: fcc43c23 sd a2,-40(s0)
30: fef42623 sw a5,-20(s0)

62: 000080e7 jalr ra # 5e <main+0x40>
66: 4785 li a5,1
68: a869 j 102 <.L5>

000000000000006a <.L4>:

In order to share the fake label between the assembler and the
libopcodes library, I've added some new defines RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_NAME
and RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_CHAR in include/opcode/riscv.h. I could have
just moved FAKE_LABEL_NAME to the include file, however, I thnk this
would be confusing, someone working on the assembler would likely not
expect to find FAKE_LABEL_NAME defined outside of the assembler source
tree. By introducing the RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_* defines I can leave the
assembler standard FAKE_LABEL_ defines in the assembler source, but
still share the RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_* with libopcodes.

gas/ChangeLog:

* config/tc-riscv.h (FAKE_LABEL_NAME): Define as
RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_NAME.
(FAKE_LABEL_CHAR): Define as RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_CHAR.

include/ChangeLog:

* dis-asm.h (riscv_symbol_is_valid): Declare.
* opcode/riscv.h (RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_NAME): Define.
(RISCV_FAKE_LABEL_CHAR): Define.

opcodes/ChangeLog:

* disassembler.c (disassemble_init_for_target): Add RISC-V
initialisation.
* riscv-dis.c (riscv_symbol_is_valid): New function.
