Commit Message

Ed Catmur Feb. 4, 2023, 4:27 p.m. UTC 
  This patch adds support for DW_TAG_GNU_formal_parameter_pack and
DW_TAG_GNU_template_parameter_pack, added to DWARF in March 2009 for
C++11 variadic templates[1].

They are not currently emitted thanks to a typo[2] but the fix is
trivial[3] and has been repeatedly submitted[4] to gcc; I'm not sure
what else I can do to get it accepted; regardless, anyone building their
own compiler can still make use of this.

This implementation synthesizes type and parameter names as T#n, p#n
e.g. Args#1, args#1. This is a pretty simple approach but it seems to
work OK and is compatible with the old style type and parameter names
emitted by old versions of gcc and when it's writing stabs+ format,
meaning that any debugger scripts will continue to work.
