If dwarf_decode_line_header() fails we have nothing to put there.  If we had
done INSERT it is a problem as discussed in previous mail.

I do not see how to make it differently.  I have put there more comments.

We cannot - comment with the reason is now in the code.

<rant>Those are few bytes for each expanded CU.  The problem of GDB is that it
needlessly expands thousands of CUs.  Saving each byte of a decoded CU is not
the right way how to fix the excessive memory consumption.</rant>

But added there for it 'dwarf2_per_objfile->seen_partial_unit'.

Fixed.

BTW I would prefer s/^/> / for the patch, the comments are difficult to find
this way.



No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora22pre-linux-gnu in default
mode, other modes still run but hopefully they will be OK.

	Fix 100x slowdown regression on DWZ files.
	* dwarf2read.c (struct dwarf2_per_objfile): Add seen_partial_unit and
	line_header_hash.
	(struct line_header): Add offset and offset_in_dwz.
	(dwarf_decode_lines): Add parameter decode_mapping to the declaration.
	(free_line_header_voidp): New declaration.
	(line_header_hash, line_header_hash_voidp, line_header_eq_voidp): New
	functions.
	(dwarf2_build_include_psymtabs): Update dwarf_decode_lines caller.
	(handle_DW_AT_stmt_list): Use seen_partial_unit and line_header_hash.
	(free_line_header_voidp): New function.
	(dwarf_decode_line_header): Initialize offset and offset_in_dwz.
	(dwarf_decode_lines): New parameter decode_mapping, use it.
	(dwarf2_free_objfile): Free line_header_hash.
