Bug ID: 18195
Summary: provide better error messages for symbols that have
been gc'd by the linker
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: symtab
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: dje at google dot com
If a function (or any other object) get's gc'd by the linker (and e.g. gets
address zero), there can still be enough info in the debug info to give a
useful error message to the user that that is what happened beyond things like
"Cannot evaluate function -- may be inlined".
