Fix fails in gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp
I see many fails in gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp on arm-linux target,
started from this
print foo.three_ptr.all^M
Cannot access memory at address 0x107c8^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp: print foo.three_ptr.all
print foo.three_ptr.all(1)^M
Cannot access memory at address 0x107c8
It turns out that ":$ptr_size" is used incorrectly.
array_ptr_label: DW_TAG_pointer_type {
{DW_AT_byte_size :$ptr_size }
^^^^^^^^^^
{DW_AT_type :$array_label}
}
Since the FORM isn't given, and it starts with the ":", it is regarded
as a label reference by dwarf assembler. The generated asm file on
x86_64 is
.uleb128 6 /* Abbrev (DW_TAG_pointer_type) */
.4byte 8 - .Lcu1_begin <----- WRONG
.4byte .Llabel2 - .Lcu1_begin
Looks .Lcu1_begin is 0 on x86_64 and that is why this test passes on
x86_64. On arm, .Lcu1_begin is an address somewhere, and the value
of DW_AT_byte_size is a very large number, so memory read request
of such large length failed.
This patch is to remove ":" and set the form explicitly. The generated
asm file on x86_64 becomes
.uleb128 6 /* Abbrev (DW_TAG_pointer_type) */
.byte 8
.4byte .Llabel2 - .Lcu1_begin

* gdb.dwarf2/dynarr-ptr.exp (assemble): Use $ptr_size instead
of ":$ptr_size" and set its form explicitly.
