+ -----------------------------------------------------
+ -- Encoding and Qualification of Names of Entities --
+ -----------------------------------------------------
+
+ -- This section describes how the names of entities are encoded in
+ -- the generated debugging information.
+
+ -- An entity in Ada has a name of the form X.Y.Z ... E where X,Y,Z
+ -- are the enclosing scopes (not including Standard at the start).
+
+ -- The encoding of the name follows this basic qualified naming scheme,
+ -- where the encoding of individual entity names is as described in
+ -- Namet (i.e. in particular names present in the original source are
+ -- folded to all lower case, with upper half and wide characters encoded
+ -- as described in Namet). Upper case letters are used only for entities
+ -- generated by the compiler.
+
+ -- There are two cases, global entities, and local entities. In more
+ -- formal terms, local entities are those which have a dynamic enclosing
+ -- scope, and global entities are at the library level, except that we
+ -- always consider procedures to be global entities, even if they are
+ -- nested (that's because at the debugger level a procedure name refers
+ -- to the code, and the code is indeed a global entity, including the
+ -- case of nested procedures.) In addition, we also consider all types
+ -- to be global entities, even if they are defined within a procedure.
+
+ -- The reason for full treating all type names as global entities is
+ -- that a number of our type encodings work by having related type
+ -- names, and we need the full qualification to keep this unique.
+
+ -- For global entities, the encoded name includes all components of the
+ -- fully expanded name (but omitting Standard at the start). For example,
+ -- if a library level child package P.Q has an embedded package R, and
+ -- there is an entity in this embdded package whose name is S, the encoded
+ -- name will include the components p.q.r.s.
+
+ -- For local entities, the encoded name only includes the components
+ -- up to the enclosing dynamic scope (other than a block). At run time,
+ -- such a dynamic scope is a subprogram, and the debugging formats know
+ -- about local variables of procedures, so it is not necessary to have
+ -- full qualification for such entities. In particular this means that
+ -- direct local variables of a procedure are not qualified.
+
+ -- As an example of the local name convention, consider a procedure V.W
+ -- with a local variable X, and a nested block Y containing an entity
+ -- Z. The fully qualified names of the entities X and Z are:
+
+ -- V.W.X
+ -- V.W.Y.Z
+
+ -- but since V.W is a subprogram, the encoded names will end up
+ -- encoding only
+
+ -- x
+ -- y.z
+
+ -- The separating dots are translated into double underscores.
+
+ -- Note: there is one exception, which is that on IRIX, for workshop
+ -- back compatibility, dots are retained as dots. In the rest of this
+ -- document we assume the double underscore encoding.
+
+ -----------------------------
+ -- Handling of Overloading --
+ -----------------------------
+
+ -- The above scheme is incomplete with respect to overloaded
+ -- subprograms, since overloading can legitimately result in a
+ -- case of two entities with exactly the same fully qualified names.
+ -- To distinguish between entries in a set of overloaded subprograms,
+ -- the encoded names are serialized by adding one of the two suffixes:
+
+ -- $n (dollar sign)
+ -- __nn (two underscores)
+
+ -- where nn is a serial number (1 for the first overloaded function,
+ -- 2 for the second, etc.). The former suffix is used when a dollar
+ -- sign is a valid symbol on the target machine and the latter is
+ -- used when it is not. No suffix need appear on the encoding of
+ -- the first overloading of a subprogram.
+
+ -- These names are prefixed by the normal full qualification. So
+ -- for example, the third instance of the subprogram qrs in package
+ -- yz would have one of the two names:
+
+ -- yz__qrs$3
+ -- yz__qrs__3
+
+ -- The serial number always appears at the end as shown, even in the
+ -- case of subprograms nested inside overloaded subprograms, and only
+ -- when the named subprogram is overloaded. For example, consider
+ -- the following situation:
+
+ -- package body Yz is
+ -- procedure Qrs is -- Encoded name is yz__qrs
+ -- procedure Tuv is ... end; -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv
+ -- begin ... end Qrs;
+
+ -- procedure Qrs (X: Integer) is -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__2
+ -- procedure Tuv is ... end; -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv
+ -- -- (not yz__qrs__2__tuv).
+ -- procedure Tuv (X: INTEGER) -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv__2
+ -- begin ... end Tuv;
+
+ -- procedure Tuv (X: INTEGER) -- Encoded name is yz__qrs__tuv__3
+ -- begin ... end Tuv;
+ -- begin ... end Qrs;
+ -- end Yz;
+
+ -- This example also serves to illustrate, a case in which the
+ -- debugging data are currently ambiguous. The two parameterless
+ -- versions of Yz.Qrs.Tuv have the same encoded names in the
+ -- debugging data. However, the actual external symbols (which
+ -- linkers use to resolve references) will be modified with an
+ -- an additional suffix so that they do not clash. Thus, there will
+ -- be cases in which the name of a function shown in the debugging
+ -- data differs from that function's "official" external name, and
+ -- in which several different functions have exactly the same name
+ -- as far as the debugger is concerned. We don't consider this too
+ -- much of a problem, since the only way the user has of referring
+ -- to these functions by name is, in fact, Yz.Qrs.Tuv, so that the
+ -- reference is inherently ambiguous from the user's perspective,
+ -- regardless of internal encodings (in these cases, the debugger
+ -- can provide a menu of options to allow the user to disambiguate).
+
+ --------------------
+ -- Operator Names --
+ --------------------
+
+ -- The above rules applied to operator names would result in names
+ -- with quotation marks, which are not typically allowed by assemblers
+ -- and linkers, and even if allowed would be odd and hard to deal with.
+ -- To avoid this problem, operator names are encoded as follows:
+
+ -- Oabs abs
+ -- Oand and
+ -- Omod mod
+ -- Onot not
+ -- Oor or
+ -- Orem rem
+ -- Oxor xor
+ -- Oeq =
+ -- One /=
+ -- Olt <
+ -- Ole <=
+ -- Ogt >
+ -- Oge >=
+ -- Oadd +
+ -- Osubtract -
+ -- Oconcat &
+ -- Omultiply *
+ -- Odivide /
+ -- Oexpon **
+
+ -- These names are prefixed by the normal full qualification, and
+ -- suffixed by the overloading identification. So for example, the
+ -- second operator "=" defined in package Extra.Messages would
+ -- have the name:
+
+ -- extra__messages__Oeq__2
+
+ ----------------------------------
+ -- Resolving Other Name Clashes --
+ ----------------------------------
+
+ -- It might be thought that the above scheme is complete, but in Ada 95,
+ -- full qualification is insufficient to uniquely identify an entity
+ -- in the program, even if it is not an overloaded subprogram. There
+ -- are two possible confusions:
+
+ -- a.b
+
+ -- interpretation 1: entity b in body of package a
+ -- interpretation 2: child procedure b of package a
+
+ -- a.b.c
+
+ -- interpretation 1: entity c in child package a.b
+ -- interpretation 2: entity c in nested package b in body of a
+
+ -- It is perfectly valid in both cases for both interpretations to
+ -- be valid within a single program. This is a bit of a surprise since
+ -- certainly in Ada 83, full qualification was sufficient, but not in
+ -- Ada 95. The result is that the above scheme can result in duplicate
+ -- names. This would not be so bad if the effect were just restricted
+ -- to debugging information, but in fact in both the above cases, it
+ -- is possible for both symbols to be external names, and so we have
+ -- a real problem of name clashes.
+
+ -- To deal with this situation, we provide two additional encoding
+ -- rules for names
+
+ -- First: all library subprogram names are preceded by the string
+ -- _ada_ (which causes no duplications, since normal Ada names can
+ -- never start with an underscore. This not only solves the first
+ -- case of duplication, but also solves another pragmatic problem
+ -- which is that otherwise Ada procedures can generate names that
+ -- clash with existing system function names. Most notably, we can
+ -- have clashes in the case of procedure Main with the C main that
+ -- in some systems is always present.
+
+ -- Second, for the case where nested packages declared in package
+ -- bodies can cause trouble, we add a suffix which shows which
+ -- entities in the list are body-nested packages, i.e. packages
+ -- whose spec is within a package body. The rules are as follows,
+ -- given a list of names in a qualified name name1.name2....
+
+ -- If none are body-nested package entities, then there is no suffix
+
+ -- If at least one is a body-nested package entity, then the suffix
+ -- is X followed by a string of b's and n's (b = body-nested package
+ -- entity, n = not a body-nested package).
+
+ -- There is one element in this string for each entity in the encoded
+ -- expanded name except the first (the rules are such that the first
+ -- entity of the encoded expanded name can never be a body-nested'
+ -- package. Trailing n's are omitted, as is the last b (there must
+ -- be at least one b, or we would not be generating a suffix at all).
+
+ -- For example, suppose we have
+
+ -- package x is
+ -- pragma Elaborate_Body;
+ -- m1 : integer; -- #1
+ -- end x;
+
+ -- package body x is
+ -- package y is m2 : integer; end y; -- #2
+ -- package body y is
+ -- package z is r : integer; end z; -- #3
+ -- end;
+ -- m3 : integer; -- #4
+ -- end x;
+
+ -- package x.y is
+ -- pragma Elaborate_Body;
+ -- m2 : integer; -- #5
+ -- end x.y;
+
+ -- package body x.y is
+ -- m3 : integer; -- #6
+ -- procedure j is -- #7
+ -- package k is
+ -- z : integer; -- #8
+ -- end k;
+ -- begin
+ -- null;
+ -- end j;
+ -- end x.y;
+
+ -- procedure x.m3 is begin null; end; -- #9
+
+ -- Then the encodings would be:
+
+ -- #1. x__m1 (no BNPE's in sight)
+ -- #2. x__y__m2X (y is a BNPE)
+ -- #3. x__y__z__rXb (y is a BNPE, so is z)
+ -- #4. x__m3 (no BNPE's in sight)
+ -- #5. x__y__m2 (no BNPE's in sight)
+ -- #6. x__y__m3 (no BNPE's in signt)
+ -- #7. x__y__j (no BNPE's in sight)
+ -- #8. k__z (no BNPE's, only up to procedure)
+ -- #9 _ada_x__m3 (library level subprogram)
+
+ -- Note that we have instances here of both kind of potential name
+ -- clashes, and the above examples show how the encodings avoid the
+ -- clash as follows:
+
+ -- Lines #4 and #9 both refer to the entity x.m3, but #9 is a library
+ -- level subprogram, so it is preceded by the string _ada_ which acts
+ -- to distinguish it from the package body entity.
+
+ -- Lines #2 and #5 both refer to the entity x.y.m2, but the first
+ -- instance is inside the body-nested package y, so there is an X
+ -- suffix to distinguish it from the child library entity.
+
+ -- Note that enumeration literals never need Xb type suffixes, since
+ -- they are never referenced using global external names.
+
+ ---------------------
+ -- Interface Names --
+ ---------------------
+
+ -- Note: if an interface name is present, then the external name
+ -- is taken from the specified interface name. Given the current
+ -- limitations of the gcc backend, this means that the debugging
+ -- name is also set to the interface name, but conceptually, it
+ -- would be possible (and indeed desirable) to have the debugging
+ -- information still use the Ada name as qualified above, so we
+ -- still fully qualify the name in the front end.
+
+ -------------------------------------
+ -- Encodings Related to Task Types --
+ -------------------------------------
+
+ -- Each task object defined by a single task declaration is associated
+ -- with a prefix that is used to qualify procedures defined in that
+ -- task. Given
+ --
+ -- package body P is
+ -- task body TaskObj is
+ -- procedure F1 is ... end;
+ -- begin
+ -- B;
+ -- end TaskObj;
+ -- end P;
+ --
+ -- The name of subprogram TaskObj.F1 is encoded as p__taskobjTK__f1,
+ -- The body, B, is contained in a subprogram whose name is
+ -- p__taskobjTKB.
+
+ ------------------------------------------
+ -- Encodings Related to Protected Types --
+ ------------------------------------------
+
+ -- Each protected type has an associated record type, that describes
+ -- the actual layout of the private data. In addition to the private
+ -- components of the type, the Corresponding_Record_Type includes one
+ -- component of type Protection, which is the actual lock structure.
+ -- The run-time size of the protected type is the size of the corres-
+ -- ponding record.
+
+ -- For a protected type prot, the Corresponding_Record_Type is encoded
+ -- as protV.
+
+ -- The operations of a protected type are encoded as follows: each
+ -- operation results in two subprograms, a locking one that is called
+ -- from outside of the object, and a non-locking one that is used for
+ -- calls from other operations on the same object. The locking operation
+ -- simply acquires the lock, and then calls the non-locking version.
+ -- The names of all of these have a prefix constructed from the name
+ -- of the name of the type, the string "PT", and a suffix which is P
+ -- or N, depending on whether this is the protected or non-locking
+ -- version of the operation.
+
+ -- Given the declaration:
+
+ -- protected type lock is
+ -- function get return integer;
+ -- procedure set (x: integer);
+ -- private
+ -- value : integer := 0;
+ -- end lock;
+
+ -- the following operations are created:
+
+ -- lockPT_getN
+ -- lockPT_getP,
+ -- lockPT_setN
+ -- lockPT_setP
+
+ ----------------------------------------------------
+ -- Conversion between Entities and External Names --
+ ----------------------------------------------------
+
+ No_Dollar_In_Label : constant Boolean := Get_No_Dollar_In_Label;
+ -- True iff the target allows dollar signs ("$") in external names
+
+ procedure Get_External_Name
+ (Entity : Entity_Id;
+ Has_Suffix : Boolean);
+ -- Set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to the external name of entity E.
+ -- The external name is the Interface_Name, if specified, unless
+ -- the entity has an address clause or a suffix.
+ --
+ -- If the Interface is not present, or not used, the external name
+ -- is the concatenation of:
+ --
+ -- - the string "_ada_", if the entity is a library subprogram,
+ -- - the names of any enclosing scopes, each followed by "__",
+ -- or "X_" if the next entity is a subunit)
+ -- - the name of the entity
+ -- - the string "$" (or "__" if target does not allow "$"), followed
+ -- by homonym number, if the entity is an overloaded subprogram
+
+ procedure Get_External_Name_With_Suffix
+ (Entity : Entity_Id;
+ Suffix : String);
+ -- Set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to the external name of entity E.
+ -- If Suffix is the empty string the external name is as above,
+ -- otherwise the external name is the concatenation of:
+ --
+ -- - the string "_ada_", if the entity is a library subprogram,
+ -- - the names of any enclosing scopes, each followed by "__",
+ -- or "X_" if the next entity is a subunit)
+ -- - the name of the entity
+ -- - the string "$" (or "__" if target does not allow "$"), followed
+ -- by homonym number, if the entity is an overloaded subprogram
+ -- - the string "___" followed by Suffix
+
+ function Get_Entity_Id (External_Name : String) return Entity_Id;
+ -- Find entity in current compilation unit, which has the given
+ -- External_Name.
+
+ ----------------------------
+ -- Debug Name Compression --
+ ----------------------------
+
+ -- The full qualification of names can lead to long names, and this
+ -- section describes the method used to compress these names. Such
+ -- compression is attempted if one of the following holds:
+
+ -- The length exceeds a maximum set in hostparm, currently set
+ -- to 128, but can be changed as needed.
+
+ -- The compiler switch -gnatC is set, setting the Compress_Debug_Names
+ -- switch in Opt to True.
+
+ -- If either of these conditions holds, name compression is attempted
+ -- by replacing the qualifying section as follows.
+
+ -- Given a name of the form
+
+ -- a__b__c__d
+
+ -- where a,b,c,d are arbitrary strings not containing a sequence
+ -- of exactly two underscores, the name is rewritten as:
+
+ -- XC????????_d
+
+ -- where ???????? are 8 hex digits representing a 32-bit checksum
+ -- value that identifies the sequence of compressed names. In
+ -- addition a dummy type declaration is generated as shown by
+ -- the following example. Supposed we have three compression
+ -- sequences
+
+ -- XC1234abcd corresponding to a__b__c__ prefix
+ -- XCabcd1234 corresponding to a__b__ prefix
+ -- XCab1234cd corresponding to a__ prefix
+
+ -- then an enumeration type declaration is generated:
+
+ -- type XC is
+ -- (XC1234abcdXnn, aXnn, bXnn, cXnn,
+ -- XCabcd1234Xnn, aXnn, bXnn,
+ -- XCab1234cdXnn, aXnn);
+
+ -- showing the meaning of each compressed prefix, so the debugger
+ -- can interpret the exact sequence of names that correspond to the
+ -- compressed sequence. The Xnn suffixes in the above are simply
+ -- serial numbers that are guaranteed to be different to ensure
+ -- that all names are unique, and are otherwise ignored.
+
+ --------------------------------------------
+ -- Subprograms for Handling Qualification --
+ --------------------------------------------
+
+ procedure Qualify_Entity_Names (N : Node_Id);
+ -- Given a node N, that represents a block, subprogram body, or package
+ -- body or spec, or protected or task type, sets a fully qualified name
+ -- for the defining entity of given construct, and also sets fully
+ -- qualified names for all enclosed entities of the construct (using
+ -- First_Entity/Next_Entity). Note that the actual modifications of the
+ -- names is postponed till a subsequent call to Qualify_All_Entity_Names.
+ -- Note: this routine does not deal with prepending _ada_ to library
+ -- subprogram names. The reason for this is that we only prepend _ada_
+ -- to the library entity itself, and not to names built from this name.
+
+ procedure Qualify_All_Entity_Names;
+ -- When Qualify_Entity_Names is called, no actual name changes are made,
+ -- i.e. the actual calls to Qualify_Entity_Name are deferred until a call
+ -- is made to this procedure. The reason for this deferral is that when
+ -- names are changed semantic processing may be affected. By deferring
+ -- the changes till just before gigi is called, we avoid any concerns
+ -- about such effects. Gigi itself does not use the names except for
+ -- output of names for debugging purposes (which is why we are doing
+ -- the name changes in the first place.
+
+ -- Note: the routines Get_Unqualified_[Decoded]_Name_String in Namet
+ -- are useful to remove qualification from a name qualified by the
+ -- call to Qualify_All_Entity_Names.
+
+ procedure Generate_Auxiliary_Types;
+ -- The process of qualifying names may result in name compression which
+ -- requires dummy enumeration types to be generated. This subprogram
+ -- ensures that these types are appropriately included in the tree.
+
+ --------------------------------
+ -- Handling of Numeric Values --
+ --------------------------------
+
+ -- All numeric values here are encoded as strings of decimal digits.
+ -- Only integer values need to be encoded. A negative value is encoded
+ -- as the corresponding positive value followed by a lower case m for
+ -- minus to indicate that the value is negative (e.g. 2m for -2).
+
+ -------------------------
+ -- Type Name Encodings --
+ -------------------------
+
+ -- In the following typ is the name of the type as normally encoded by
+ -- the debugger rules, i.e. a non-qualified name, all in lower case,
+ -- with standard encoding of upper half and wide characters
+
+ ------------------------
+ -- Encapsulated Types --
+ ------------------------
+
+ -- In some cases, the compiler encapsulates a type by wrapping it in
+ -- a structure. For example, this is used when a size or alignment
+ -- specification requires a larger type. Consider:
+
+ -- type y is mod 2 ** 64;
+ -- for y'size use 256;
+
+ -- In this case the compile generates a structure type y___PAD, which
+ -- has a single field whose name is F. This single field is 64 bits
+ -- long and contains the actual value.
+
+ -- A similar encapsulation is done for some packed array types,
+ -- in which case the structure type is y___LJM and the field name
+ -- is OBJECT.
+
+ -- When the debugger sees an object of a type whose name has a
+ -- suffix not otherwise mentioned in this specification, the type
+ -- is a record containing a single field, and the name of that field
+ -- is all upper-case letters, it should look inside to get the value
+ -- of the field, and neither the outer structure name, nor the
+ -- field name should appear when the value is printed.
+
+ -----------------------
+ -- Fixed-Point Types --
+ -----------------------
+
+ -- Fixed-point types are encoded using a suffix that indicates the
+ -- delta and small values. The actual type itself is a normal
+ -- integer type.
+
+ -- typ___XF_nn_dd
+ -- typ___XF_nn_dd_nn_dd
+
+ -- The first form is used when small = delta. The value of delta (and
+ -- small) is given by the rational nn/dd, where nn and dd are decimal
+ -- integers.
+ --
+ -- The second form is used if the small value is different from the
+ -- delta. In this case, the first nn/dd rational value is for delta,
+ -- and the second value is for small.
+
+ ------------------------------
+ -- VAX Floating-Point Types --
+ ------------------------------
+
+ -- Vax floating-point types are represented at run time as integer
+ -- types, which are treated specially by the code generator. Their
+ -- type names are encoded with the following suffix:
+
+ -- typ___XFF
+ -- typ___XFD
+ -- typ___XFG
+
+ -- representing the Vax F Float, D Float, and G Float types. The
+ -- debugger must treat these specially. In particular, printing
+ -- these values can be achieved using the debug procedures that
+ -- are provided in package System.Vax_Float_Operations:
+
+ -- procedure Debug_Output_D (Arg : D);
+ -- procedure Debug_Output_F (Arg : F);
+ -- procedure Debug_Output_G (Arg : G);
+
+ -- These three procedures take a Vax floating-point argument, and
+ -- output a corresponding decimal representation to standard output
+ -- with no terminating line return.
+
+ --------------------
+ -- Discrete Types --
+ --------------------
+
+ -- Discrete types are coded with a suffix indicating the range in
+ -- the case where one or both of the bounds are discriminants or
+ -- variable.
+
+ -- Note: at the current time, we also encode static bounds if they
+ -- do not match the natural machine type bounds, but this may be
+ -- removed in the future, since it is redundant for most debugging
+ -- formats. However, we do not ever need XD encoding for enumeration
+ -- base types, since here it is always clear what the bounds are
+ -- from the number of enumeration literals, and of course we do
+ -- not need to encode the dummy XR types generated for renamings.
+
+ -- typ___XD
+ -- typ___XDL_lowerbound
+ -- typ___XDU_upperbound
+ -- typ___XDLU_lowerbound__upperbound
+
+ -- If a discrete type is a natural machine type (i.e. its bounds
+ -- correspond in a natural manner to its size), then it is left
+ -- unencoded. The above encoding forms are used when there is a
+ -- constrained range that does not correspond to the size or that
+ -- has discriminant references or other non-static bounds.
+
+ -- The first form is used if both bounds are dynamic, in which case
+ -- two constant objects are present whose names are typ___L and
+ -- typ___U in the same scope as typ, and the values of these constants
+ -- indicate the bounds. As far as the debugger is concerned, these
+ -- are simply variables that can be accessed like any other variables.
+ -- In the enumeration case, these values correspond to the Enum_Rep
+ -- values for the lower and upper bounds.
+
+ -- The second form is used if the upper bound is dynamic, but the
+ -- lower bound is either constant or depends on a discriminant of
+ -- the record with which the type is associated. The upper bound
+ -- is stored in a constant object of name typ___U as previously
+ -- described, but the lower bound is encoded directly into the
+ -- name as either a decimal integer, or as the discriminant name.
+
+ -- The third form is similarly used if the lower bound is dynamic,
+ -- but the upper bound is static or a discriminant reference, in
+ -- which case the lower bound is stored in a constant object of
+ -- name typ___L, and the upper bound is encoded directly into the
+ -- name as either a decimal integer, or as the discriminant name.
+
+ -- The fourth form is used if both bounds are discriminant references
+ -- or static values, with the encoding first for the lower bound,
+ -- then for the upper bound, as previously described.
+
+ ------------------
+ -- Biased Types --
+ ------------------
+
+ -- Only discrete types can be biased, and the fact that they are
+ -- biased is indicated by a suffix of the form:
+
+ -- typ___XB_lowerbound__upperbound
+
+ -- Here lowerbound and upperbound are decimal integers, with the
+ -- usual (postfix "m") encoding for negative numbers. Biased
+ -- types are only possible where the bounds are static, and the
+ -- values are represented as unsigned offsets from the lower
+ -- bound given. For example:
+
+ -- type Q is range 10 .. 15;
+ -- for Q'size use 3;
+
+ -- The size clause will force values of type Q in memory to be
+ -- stored in biased form (e.g. 11 will be represented by the
+ -- bit pattern 001).
+
+ ----------------------------------------------
+ -- Record Types with Variable-Length Fields --
+ ----------------------------------------------
+
+ -- The debugging formats do not fully support these types, and indeed
+ -- some formats simply generate no useful information at all for such
+ -- types. In order to provide information for the debugger, gigi creates
+ -- a parallel type in the same scope with one of the names
+
+ -- type___XVE
+ -- type___XVU
+
+ -- The former name is used for a record and the latter for the union
+ -- that is made for a variant record (see below) if that union has
+ -- variable size. These encodings suffix any other encodings that
+ -- might be suffixed to the type name.
+
+ -- The idea here is to provide all the needed information to interpret
+ -- objects of the original type in the form of a "fixed up" type, which
+ -- is representable using the normal debugging information.
+
+ -- There are three cases to be dealt with. First, some fields may have
+ -- variable positions because they appear after variable-length fields.
+ -- To deal with this, we encode *all* the field bit positions of the
+ -- special ___XV type in a non-standard manner.
+
+ -- The idea is to encode not the position, but rather information
+ -- that allows computing the position of a field from the position
+ -- of the previous field. The algorithm for computing the actual
+ -- positions of all fields and the length of the record is as
+ -- follows. In this description, let P represent the current
+ -- bit position in the record.
+
+ -- 1. Initialize P to 0.
+
+ -- 2. For each field in the record,
+
+ -- 2a. If an alignment is given (see below), then round P
+ -- up, if needed, to the next multiple of that alignment.
+
+ -- 2b. If a bit position is given, then increment P by that
+ -- amount (that is, treat it as an offset from the end of the
+ -- preceding record).
+
+ -- 2c. Assign P as the actual position of the field.
+
+ -- 2d. Compute the length, L, of the represented field (see below)
+ -- and compute P'=P+L. Unless the field represents a variant part
+ -- (see below and also Variant Record Encoding), set P to P'.
+
+ -- The alignment, if present, is encoded in the field name of the
+ -- record, which has a suffix:
+
+ -- fieldname___XVAnn
+
+ -- where the nn after the XVA indicates the alignment value in storage
+ -- units. This encoding is present only if an alignment is present.
+
+ -- The size of the record described by an XVE-encoded type (in bits)
+ -- is generally the maximum value attained by P' in step 2d above,
+ -- rounded up according to the record's alignment.
+
+ -- Second, the variable-length fields themselves are represented by
+ -- replacing the type by a special access type. The designated type
+ -- of this access type is the original variable-length type, and the
+ -- fact that this field has been transformed in this way is signalled
+ -- by encoding the field name as:
+
+ -- field___XVL
+
+ -- where field is the original field name. If a field is both
+ -- variable-length and also needs an alignment encoding, then the
+ -- encodings are combined using:
+
+ -- field___XVLnn
+
+ -- Note: the reason that we change the type is so that the resulting
+ -- type has no variable-length fields. At least some of the formats
+ -- used for debugging information simply cannot tolerate variable-
+ -- length fields, so the encoded information would get lost.
+
+ -- Third, in the case of a variant record, the special union
+ -- that contains the variants is replaced by a normal C union.
+ -- In this case, the positions are all zero.
+
+ -- As an example of this encoding, consider the declarations:
+
+ -- type Q is array (1 .. V1) of Float; -- alignment 4
+ -- type R is array (1 .. V2) of Long_Float; -- alignment 8
+
+ -- type X is record
+ -- A : Character;
+ -- B : Float;
+ -- C : String (1 .. V3);
+ -- D : Float;
+ -- E : Q;
+ -- F : R;
+ -- G : Float;
+ -- end record;
+
+ -- The encoded type looks like:
+
+ -- type anonymousQ is access Q;
+ -- type anonymousR is access R;
+
+ -- type X___XVE is record
+ -- A : Character; -- position contains 0
+ -- B : Float; -- position contains 24
+ -- C___XVL : access String (1 .. V3); -- position contains 0
+ -- D___XVA4 : Float; -- position contains 0
+ -- E___XVL4 : anonymousQ; -- position contains 0
+ -- F___XVL8 : anonymousR; -- position contains 0
+ -- G : Float; -- position contains 0
+ -- end record;
+
+ -- Any bit sizes recorded for fields other than dynamic fields and
+ -- variants are honored as for ordinary records.
+
+ -- Notes:
+
+ -- 1) The B field could also have been encoded by using a position
+ -- of zero, and an alignment of 4, but in such a case, the coding by
+ -- position is preferred (since it takes up less space). We have used
+ -- the (illegal) notation access xxx as field types in the example
+ -- above.
+
+ -- 2) The E field does not actually need the alignment indication
+ -- but this may not be detected in this case by the conversion
+ -- routines.
+
+ -- All discriminants always appear before any variable-length
+ -- fields that depend on them. So they can be located independent
+ -- of the variable-length field, using the standard procedure for
+ -- computing positions described above.
+
+ -- The size of the ___XVE or ___XVU record or union is set to the
+ -- alignment (in bytes) of the original object so that the debugger
+ -- can calculate the size of the original type.
+
+ -- 3) Our conventions do not cover all XVE-encoded records in which
+ -- some, but not all, fields have representation clauses. Such
+ -- records may, therefore, be displayed incorrectly by debuggers.
+ -- This situation is not common.
+
+ -----------------------
+ -- Base Record Types --
+ -----------------------
+
+ -- Under certain circumstances, debuggers need two descriptions
+ -- of a record type, one that gives the actual details of the
+ -- base type's structure (as described elsewhere in these
+ -- comments) and one that may be used to obtain information
+ -- about the particular subtype and the size of the objects
+ -- being typed. In such cases the compiler will substitute a
+ -- type whose name is typically compiler-generated and
+ -- irrelevant except as a key for obtaining the actual type.
+ -- Specifically, if this name is x, then we produce a record
+ -- type named x___XVS consisting of one field. The name of
+ -- this field is that of the actual type being encoded, which
+ -- we'll call y (the type of this single field is arbitrary).
+ -- Both x and y may have corresponding ___XVE types.
+
+ -- The size of the objects typed as x should be obtained from
+ -- the structure of x (and x___XVE, if applicable) as for
+ -- ordinary types unless there is a variable named x___XVZ, which,
+ -- if present, will hold the the size (in bits) of x.
+
+ -- The type x will either be a subtype of y (see also Subtypes
+ -- of Variant Records, below) or will contain no fields at
+ -- all. The layout, types, and positions of these fields will
+ -- be accurate, if present. (Currently, however, the GDB
+ -- debugger makes no use of x except to determine its size).
+
+ -- Among other uses, XVS types are sometimes used to encode
+ -- unconstrained types. For example, given
+ --
+ -- subtype Int is INTEGER range 0..10;
+ -- type T1 (N: Int := 0) is record
+ -- F1: String (1 .. N);
+ -- end record;
+ -- type AT1 is array (INTEGER range <>) of T1;
+ --
+ -- the element type for AT1 might have a type defined as if it had
+ -- been written:
+ --
+ -- type at1___C_PAD is record null; end record;
+ -- for at1___C_PAD'Size use 16 * 8;
+ --
+ -- and there would also be
+ --
+ -- type at1___C_PAD___XVS is record t1: Integer; end record;
+ -- type t1 is ...
+ --
+ -- Had the subtype Int been dynamic:
+ --
+ -- subtype Int is INTEGER range 0 .. M; -- M a variable
+ --
+ -- Then the compiler would also generate a declaration whose effect
+ -- would be
+ --
+ -- at1___C_PAD___XVZ: constant Integer := 32 + M * 8 + padding term;
+ --
+ -- Not all unconstrained types are so encoded; the XVS
+ -- convention may be unnecessary for unconstrained types of
+ -- fixed size. However, this encoding is always necessary when
+ -- a subcomponent type (array element's type or record field's
+ -- type) is an unconstrained record type some of whose
+ -- components depend on discriminant values.
+
+ -----------------
+ -- Array Types --
+ -----------------
+
+ -- Since there is no way for the debugger to obtain the index subtypes
+ -- for an array type, we produce a type that has the name of the
+ -- array type followed by "___XA" and is a record whose field names
+ -- are the names of the types for the bounds. The types of these
+ -- fields is an integer type which is meaningless.
+
+ -- To conserve space, we do not produce this type unless one of
+ -- the index types is either an enumeration type, has a variable
+ -- upper bound, has a lower bound different from the constant 1,
+ -- is a biased type, or is wider than "sizetype".
+
+ -- Given the full encoding of these types (see above description for
+ -- the encoding of discrete types), this means that all necessary
+ -- information for addressing arrays is available. In some
+ -- debugging formats, some or all of the bounds information may
+ -- be available redundantly, particularly in the fixed-point case,
+ -- but this information can in any case be ignored by the debugger.
+
+ ----------------------------
+ -- Note on Implicit Types --
+ ----------------------------
+
+ -- The compiler creates implicit type names in many situations where
+ -- a type is present semantically, but no specific name is present.
+ -- For example:
+
+ -- S : Integer range M .. N;
+
+ -- Here the subtype of S is not integer, but rather an anonymous
+ -- subtype of Integer. Where possible, the compiler generates names
+ -- for such anonymous types that are related to the type from which
+ -- the subtype is obtained as follows:
+
+ -- T name suffix
+
+ -- where name is the name from which the subtype is obtained, using
+ -- lower case letters and underscores, and suffix starts with an upper
+ -- case letter. For example, the name for the above declaration of S
+ -- might be:
+
+ -- TintegerS4b
+
+ -- If the debugger is asked to give the type of an entity and the type
+ -- has the form T name suffix, it is probably appropriate to just use
+ -- "name" in the response since this is what is meaningful to the
+ -- programmer.
+
+ -------------------------------------------------
+ -- Subprograms for Handling Encoded Type Names --
+ -------------------------------------------------
+
+ procedure Get_Encoded_Name (E : Entity_Id);
+ -- If the entity is a typename, store the external name of
+ -- the entity as in Get_External_Name, followed by three underscores
+ -- plus the type encoding in Name_Buffer with the length in Name_Len,
+ -- and an ASCII.NUL character stored following the name.
+ -- Otherwise set Name_Buffer and Name_Len to hold the entity name.
+
+ --------------
+ -- Renaming --
+ --------------
+
+ -- Debugging information is generated for exception, object, package,
+ -- and subprogram renaming (generic renamings are not significant, since
+ -- generic templates are not relevant at debugging time).
+
+ -- Consider a renaming declaration of the form
+
+ -- x typ renames y;
+
+ -- There is one case in which no special debugging information is required,
+ -- namely the case of an object renaming where the backend allocates a
+ -- reference for the renamed variable, and the entity x is this reference.
+ -- The debugger can handle this case without any special processing or
+ -- encoding (it won't know it was a renaming, but that does not matter).
+
+ -- All other cases of renaming generate a dummy type definition for
+ -- an entity whose name is:
+
+ -- x___XR for an object renaming
+ -- x___XRE for an exception renaming
+ -- x___XRP for a package renaming
+
+ -- The name is fully qualified in the usual manner, i.e. qualified in
+ -- the same manner as the entity x would be.
+
+ -- Note: subprogram renamings are not encoded at the present time.
+
+ -- The type is an enumeration type with a single enumeration literal
+ -- that is an identifier which describes the renamed variable.
+
+ -- For the simple entity case, where y is an entity name,
+ -- the enumeration is of the form:
+
+ -- (y___XE)
+
+ -- i.e. the enumeration type has a single field, whose name
+ -- matches the name y, with the XE suffix. The entity for this
+ -- enumeration literal is fully qualified in the usual manner.
+ -- All subprogram, exception, and package renamings fall into
+ -- this category, as well as simple object renamings.
+
+ -- For the object renaming case where y is a selected component or an
+ -- indexed component, the literal name is suffixed by additional fields
+ -- that give details of the components. The name starts as above with
+ -- a y___XE entity indicating the outer level variable. Then a series
+ -- of selections and indexing operations can be specified as follows:
+
+ -- Indexed component
+
+ -- A series of subscript values appear in sequence, the number
+ -- corresponds to the number of dimensions of the array. The
+ -- subscripts have one of the following two forms:
+
+ -- XSnnn
+
+ -- Here nnn is a constant value, encoded as a decimal
+ -- integer (pos value for enumeration type case). Negative
+ -- values have a trailing 'm' as usual.
+
+ -- XSe
+
+ -- Here e is the (unqualified) name of a constant entity in
+ -- the same scope as the renaming which contains the subscript
+ -- value.
+
+ -- Slice
+
+ -- For the slice case, we have two entries. The first is for
+ -- the lower bound of the slice, and has the form
+
+ -- XLnnn
+ -- XLe
+
+ -- Specifies the lower bound, using exactly the same encoding
+ -- as for an XS subscript as described above.
+
+ -- Then the upper bound appears in the usual XSnnn/XSe form
+
+ -- Selected component
+
+ -- For a selected component, we have a single entry
+
+ -- XRf
+
+ -- Here f is the field name for the selection
+
+ -- For an explicit deference (.all), we have a single entry
+
+ -- XA
+
+ -- As an example, consider the declarations:
+
+ -- package p is
+ -- type q is record
+ -- m : string (2 .. 5);
+ -- end record;
+ --
+ -- type r is array (1 .. 10, 1 .. 20) of q;
+ --
+ -- g : r;
+ --
+ -- z : string renames g (1,5).m(2 ..3)
+ -- end p;
+
+ -- The generated type definition would appear as
+
+ -- type p__z___XR is
+ -- (p__g___XEXS1XS5XRmXL2XS3);
+ -- p__q___XE--------------------outer entity is g
+ -- XS1-----------------first subscript for g
+ -- XS5--------------second subscript for g
+ -- XRm-----------select field m
+ -- XL2--------lower bound of slice
+ -- XS3-----upper bound of slice
+
+ function Debug_Renaming_Declaration (N : Node_Id) return Node_Id;
+ -- The argument N is a renaming declaration. The result is a type
+ -- declaration as described in the above paragraphs. If not special
+ -- debug declaration, than Empty is returned.
+
+ ---------------------------
+ -- Packed Array Encoding --
+ ---------------------------
+
+ -- For every packed array, two types are created, and both appear in
+ -- the debugging output.
+
+ -- The original declared array type is a perfectly normal array type,
+ -- and its index bounds indicate the original bounds of the array.
+
+ -- The corresponding packed array type, which may be a modular type, or
+ -- may be an array of bytes type (see Exp_Pakd for full details). This
+ -- is the type that is actually used in the generated code and for
+ -- debugging information for all objects of the packed type.
+
+ -- The name of the corresponding packed array type is:
+
+ -- ttt___XPnnn
+
+ -- where
+ -- ttt is the name of the original declared array
+ -- nnn is the component size in bits (1-31)
+
+ -- When the debugger sees that an object is of a type that is encoded
+ -- in this manner, it can use the original type to determine the bounds,
+ -- and the component size to determine the packing details.
+
+ -- Packed arrays are represented in tightly packed form, with no extra
+ -- bits between components. This is true even when the component size
+ -- is not a factor of the storage unit size, so that as a result it is
+ -- possible for components to cross storage unit boundaries.
+
+ -- The layout in storage is identical, regardless of whether the
+ -- implementation type is a modular type or an array-of-bytes type.
+ -- See Exp_Pakd for details of how these implementation types are used,
+ -- but for the purpose of the debugger, only the starting address of
+ -- the object in memory is significant.
+
+ -- The following example should show clearly how the packing works in
+ -- the little-endian and big-endian cases:
+
+ -- type B is range 0 .. 7;
+ -- for B'Size use 3;
+
+ -- type BA is array (0 .. 5) of B;
+ -- pragma Pack (BA);
+
+ -- BV : constant BA := (1,2,3,4,5,6);
+
+ -- Little endian case
+
+ -- BV'Address + 2 BV'Address + 1 BV'Address + 0
+ -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
+ -- | 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 | 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 | 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 |
+ -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
+ -- <---------> <-----> <---> <---> <-----> <---> <--->
+ -- unused bits BV(5) BV(4) BV(3) BV(2) BV(1) BV(0)
+ --
+ -- Big endian case
+ --
+ -- BV'Address + 0 BV'Address + 1 BV'Address + 2
+ -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
+ -- | 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 | 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 | 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 |
+ -- +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
+ -- <---> <---> <-----> <---> <---> <-----> <--------->
+ -- BV(0) BV(1) BV(2) BV(3) BV(4) BV(5) unused bits
+
+ ------------------------------------------------------
+ -- Subprograms for Handling Packed Array Type Names --
+ ------------------------------------------------------
+
+ function Make_Packed_Array_Type_Name
+ (Typ : Entity_Id;
+ Csize : Uint)
+ return Name_Id;
+ -- This function is used in Exp_Pakd to create the name that is encoded
+ -- as described above. The entity Typ provides the name ttt, and the
+ -- value Csize is the component size that provides the nnn value.
+
+ --------------------------------------
+ -- Pointers to Unconstrained Arrays --
+ --------------------------------------
+
+ -- There are two kinds of pointers to arrays. The debugger can tell
+ -- which format is in use by the form of the type of the pointer.
+
+ -- Fat Pointers
+
+ -- Fat pointers are represented as a struct with two fields. This
+ -- struct has two distinguished field names:
+
+ -- P_ARRAY is a pointer to the array type. The name of this
+ -- type is the unconstrained type followed by "___XUA". This
+ -- array will have bounds which are the discriminants, and
+ -- hence are unparsable, but will give the number of
+ -- subscripts and the component type.
+
+ -- P_BOUNDS is a pointer to a struct, the name of whose type is the
+ -- unconstrained array name followed by "___XUB" and which has
+ -- fields of the form
+
+ -- LBn (n a decimal integer) lower bound of n'th dimension
+ -- UBn (n a decimal integer) upper bound of n'th dimension
+
+ -- The bounds may be any integral type. In the case of an
+ -- enumeration type, Enum_Rep values are used.
+
+ -- The debugging information will sometimes reference an anonymous
+ -- fat pointer type. Such types are given the name xxx___XUP, where
+ -- xxx is the name of the designated type. If the debugger is asked
+ -- to output such a type name, the appropriate form is "access xxx".
+
+ -- Thin Pointers
+
+ -- Thin pointers are represented as a pointer to the ARRAY field of
+ -- a structure with two fields. The name of the structure type is
+ -- that of the unconstrained array followed by "___XUT".
+
+ -- The field ARRAY contains the array value. This array field is
+ -- typically a variable-length array, and consequently the entire
+ -- record structure will be encoded as previously described,
+ -- resulting in a type with suffix "___XUT___XVE".
+
+ -- The field BOUNDS is a struct containing the bounds as above.
+
+ --------------------------------------
+ -- Tagged Types and Type Extensions --
+ --------------------------------------
+
+ -- A type C derived from a tagged type P has a field named "_parent"
+ -- of type P that contains its inherited fields. The type of this
+ -- field is usually P (encoded as usual if it has a dynamic size),
+ -- but may be a more distant ancestor, if P is a null extension of
+ -- that type.
+
+ -- The type tag of a tagged type is a field named _tag, of type void*.
+ -- If the type is derived from another tagged type, its _tag field is
+ -- found in its _parent field.
+
+ -----------------------------
+ -- Variant Record Encoding --
+ -----------------------------
+
+ -- The variant part of a variant record is encoded as a single field
+ -- in the enclosing record, whose name is:
+
+ -- discrim___XVN
+
+ -- where discrim is the unqualified name of the variant. This field name
+ -- is built by gigi (not by code in this unit). In the case of an
+ -- Unchecked_Union record, this discriminant will not appear in the
+ -- record, and the debugger must proceed accordingly (basically it
+ -- can treat this case as it would a C union).
+
+ -- The type corresponding to this field has a name that is obtained
+ -- by concatenating the type name with the above string and is similar
+ -- to a C union, in which each member of the union corresponds to one
+ -- variant. However, unlike a C union, the size of the type may be
+ -- variable even if each of the components are fixed size, since it
+ -- includes a computation of which variant is present. In that case,
+ -- it will be encoded as above and a type with the suffix "___XVN___XVU"
+ -- will be present.
+
+ -- The name of the union member is encoded to indicate the choices, and
+ -- is a string given by the following grammar:
+
+ -- union_name ::= {choice} | others_choice
+ -- choice ::= simple_choice | range_choice
+ -- simple_choice ::= S number
+ -- range_choice ::= R number T number
+ -- number ::= {decimal_digit} [m]
+ -- others_choice ::= O (upper case letter O)
+
+ -- The m in a number indicates a negative value. As an example of this
+ -- encoding scheme, the choice 1 .. 4 | 7 | -10 would be represented by
+
+ -- R1T4S7S10m
+
+ -- In the case of enumeration values, the values used are the
+ -- actual representation values in the case where an enumeration type
+ -- has an enumeration representation spec (i.e. they are values that
+ -- correspond to the use of the Enum_Rep attribute).
+
+ -- The type of the inner record is given by the name of the union
+ -- type (as above) concatenated with the above string. Since that
+ -- type may itself be variable-sized, it may also be encoded as above
+ -- with a new type with a further suffix of "___XVU".
+
+ -- As an example, consider:
+
+ -- type Var (Disc : Boolean := True) is record
+ -- M : Integer;
+
+ -- case Disc is
+ -- when True =>
+ -- R : Integer;
+ -- S : Integer;
+
+ -- when False =>
+ -- T : Integer;
+ -- end case;
+ -- end record;
+
+ -- V1 : Var;
+
+ -- In this case, the type var is represented as a struct with three
+ -- fields, the first two are "disc" and "m", representing the values
+ -- of these record components.
+
+ -- The third field is a union of two types, with field names S1 and O.
+ -- S1 is a struct with fields "r" and "s", and O is a struct with
+ -- fields "t".
+
+ ------------------------------------------------
+ -- Subprograms for Handling Variant Encodings --
+ ------------------------------------------------
+
+ procedure Get_Variant_Encoding (V : Node_Id);
+ -- This procedure is called by Gigi with V being the variant node.
+ -- The corresponding encoding string is returned in Name_Buffer with
+ -- the length of the string in Name_Len, and an ASCII.NUL character
+ -- stored following the name.
+
+ ---------------------------------
+ -- Subtypes of Variant Records --
+ ---------------------------------
+
+ -- A subtype of a variant record is represented by a type in which the
+ -- union field from the base type is replaced by one of the possible
+ -- values. For example, if we have:
+
+ -- type Var (Disc : Boolean := True) is record
+ -- M : Integer;
+
+ -- case Disc is
+ -- when True =>
+ -- R : Integer;
+ -- S : Integer;
+
+ -- when False =>
+ -- T : Integer;
+ -- end case;
+
+ -- end record;
+ -- V1 : Var;
+ -- V2 : Var (True);
+ -- V3 : Var (False);
+
+ -- Here V2 for example is represented with a subtype whose name is
+ -- something like TvarS3b, which is a struct with three fields. The
+ -- first two fields are "disc" and "m" as for the base type, and
+ -- the third field is S1, which contains the fields "r" and "s".
+
+ -- The debugger should simply ignore structs with names of the form
+ -- corresponding to variants, and consider the fields inside as
+ -- belonging to the containing record.
+
+ -------------------------------------------
+ -- Character literals in Character Types --
+ -------------------------------------------
+
+ -- Character types are enumeration types at least one of whose
+ -- enumeration literals is a character literal. Enumeration literals
+ -- are usually simply represented using their identifier names. In
+ -- the case where an enumeration literal is a character literal, the
+ -- name aencoded as described in the following paragraph.
+
+ -- A name QUhh, where each 'h' is a lower-case hexadecimal digit,
+ -- stands for a character whose Unicode encoding is hh, and
+ -- QWhhhh likewise stands for a wide character whose encoding
+ -- is hhhh. The representation values are encoded as for ordinary
+ -- enumeration literals (and have no necessary relationship to the
+ -- values encoded in the names).
+
+ -- For example, given the type declaration
+
+ -- type x is (A, 'C', B);
+
+ -- the second enumeration literal would be named QU43 and the
+ -- value assigned to it would be 1.
+
+ -------------------
+ -- Modular Types --
+ -------------------
+
+ -- A type declared
+
+ -- type x is mod N;
+
+ -- Is encoded as a subrange of an unsigned base type with lower bound
+ -- 0 and upper bound N. That is, there is no name encoding; we only use
+ -- the standard encodings provided by the debugging format. Thus,
+ -- we give these types a non-standard interpretation: the standard
+ -- interpretation of our encoding would not, in general, imply that
+ -- arithmetic on type x was to be performed modulo N (especially not
+ -- when N is not a power of 2).
+
+ ---------------------
+ -- Context Clauses --
+ ---------------------
+
+ -- The SGI Workshop debugger requires a very peculiar and nonstandard
+ -- symbol name containing $ signs to be generated that records the
+ -- use clauses that are used in a unit. GDB does not use this name,
+ -- since it takes a different philsophy of universal use visibility,
+ -- with manual resolution of any ambiguities.
+
+ -- The routines and data in this section are used to prepare this
+ -- specialized name, whose exact contents are described below. Gigi
+ -- will output this encoded name only in the SGI case (indeed, not
+ -- only is it useless on other targets, but hazardous, given the use
+ -- of the non-standard character $ rejected by many assemblers.)
+
+ -- "Use" clauses are encoded as follows:
+
+ -- _LSS__ prefix for clauses in a subprogram spec
+ -- _LSB__ prefix for clauses in a subprogram body
+ -- _LPS__ prefix for clauses in a package spec
+ -- _LPB__ prefix for clauses in a package body
