[RFC] Support $ORIGIN in DW_AT_comp_dir
[Note that the test doesn't currently work, because build_executable_from_specs
doesn't like relative src names for some reason. However, to be a good
test it really needs a relative name due to
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91888]
This implements this DWARF feature request:
http://dwarfstd.org/ShowIssue.php?issue=171130.2
With reproducible builds and with build output caching, it is
desirable to have the build output be independent of the
build environment. GCC's -fdebug-prefix-map allows setting
the comp dir to a different value. But the obvious choice,
i.e. ".", has the downside that GCC will not find DWOs/
source code when $PWD is outside of the build output directory.
So, this patch allows specifying something like
-fdebug-prefix-map=/output/dir=\$ORIGIN, and GDB will find things
correctly, even when $PWD is not the output directory.
OPEN QUESTIONS:
- where exactly can this $ORIGIN thingy appear? The proposal mentions
DW_AT_comp_dir, but I expect you'll need that elsewhere too... Given that in
dwarf>=5 the line tables are independent of the rest of the debug info,
you'll need at least to include the directory 0 of the line table. But what
about other line table directories? And other attributes? If a CU has a
regular DW_AT_comp_dir, but then a specific DIE has DW_AT_decl_file
$ORIGIN/foo.cc, what does that mean?
- what exactly does $ORIGIN refer to? If I e.g. split the debug info into a
separate debug file (objcopy --only-keep-debug), which file is it relative
to?
- should there be a way to suppress/escape this handling to cover the
pathological case of a literal "$ORIGIN" directory? $$ORIGIN ? ./$ORIGIN ?
- dwarf2 used to recommend (not require) that the debug info paths are of the
form "hostname:path". This didn't turn out to be useful so this wording was
scrapped from later standard revisions. However, lldb (I don't know about
gdb), still has some code to handle (= ignore) the hostname prefix. I myself
am not convinced that this is a good idea, but it has occurred to me whether
we shouldn't revive this syntax for the $ORIGIN thingy.

Patch Set 1:
regarding your open questions, it seems according to
https://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html#substitution
valid names (like 'ORIGIN') match as:
name := [_a-zA-Z0-9]*
quoting:
If a dollar sign is not immediately followed by a name or a brace-enclosed name, the behavior of the dynamic linker is unspecified.
---
so $$ORIGIN is unspecified,
quoting:
Moreover, the pathname will contain no symbolic links or use of . or .. components.
---
however I believe this is refering to the path _after_ the substitution sequence rather than before.
If the '/' occurs before the substitution sequence, I believe that the following may(?) apply, in which case ./$ORIGIN is treated as a directory named literally $ORIGIN in the current directory?
https://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html#shobj_dependencies
quoting:
If a shared object name has one or more slash (/) characters anywhere in the name, such as /usr/lib/lib2 or directory/file, the dynamic linker uses that string directly as the path name. If the name has no slashes, such as lib1, three facilities specify shared object path
---
Note the enclosed link includes another valid name not matched by the patch, in particular:
${ORIGIN}
