  Hi Joel,

Thanks for the review and sorry for the long delay. Here is the updated patch.

---
Fortran provide types whose values may be dynamically allocated
or associated with a variable under explicit program control.
The purpose of this commit is
  * to read allocated/associated DWARF tags and store them in
    the dynamic property list of main_type.
  * enable GDB to print the value of a dynamic array in Fortran
    in case the type is allocated or associated (pointer to
    dynamic array).

Examples:
(gdb) p vla_not_allocated
$1 = <not allocated>

(gdb) p vla_allocated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)

(gdb) p vla_ptr_not_associated
$1 = <not associated>

(gdb) p vla_ptr_associated
$1 = (1, 2, 3)

Add basic test coverage for most dynamic array use-cases
in Fortran.
The commit contains the following tests:
  * Ensure that values of Fortran dynamic arrays
    can be evaluated correctly in various ways and states.
  * Ensure that Fortran primitives can be evaluated
    correctly when used as a dynamic array.
  * Dynamic arrays passed to subroutines and handled
    in different ways inside the routine.
  * Ensure that the ptype of dynamic arrays in
    Fortran can be printed in GDB correctly.
  * Ensure that dynamic arrays in different states
    (allocated/associated) can be evaluated.
  * Dynamic arrays passed to functions and returned from
    functions.
  * History values of dynamic arrays can be accessed and
    printed again with the correct values.
  * Dynamic array evaluations using MI protocol.
  * Sizeof output of dynamic arrays in various states.

The patch was tested using the test suite on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

That's a duplicate of an email you sent shortly after this one.
On the other hand, patch #2 seems to still be pending (ie, no
email from you since I sent you my last review). So I'm wondering
if you meant instead to send patch #2, here...

Hi Keven,
The test cases added by this commit fail on some other OS and targets,
see this thread, https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-testers/2015-q4/msg02136.html
can you take a look?

Hi Yao, Joel,

I don't think I will be able to fix the failures on the mentioned hosts/targets before you
create the branch, as I need to replicate the environment on my end first to start investigating.
Therefore I suggest to revert the change for now. Sorry if this caused any inconvenience.

I don't think that reverting without more investigation is a good
idea. I quickly looked at a good dozen of those reports, and, as
far as I know, these are new FAILs, so we don't know that they are
regressions. I could also be compiler issues.

There is also the fact that reviewing these patches took me not
just hours, but actually days in total (I don't know how much time
Keven et al also spent answering all my comments). I would prefer
re-doing all that work only if we have confirmation that this is
causing a critical problem that we can't fix without Keven's help.

That being said - it doesn't bode well for the future of this
feature if the authors don't have time to look into issues they
create...

Thanks,

They are fails of tests for the new feature, so they aren't
regressions.  It could be compiler issues, of course.

Your review efforts are not lost if the patch is reverted.  Keven or
some one else will work on the basis of it, so everything, such as
comments and code style, should be still there.

The reviewing efforts shouldn't justify keeping something in GDB, which
breaks tests at the beginning.  Patches are reviewed in the scope of
reviewers' knowledge and experience, so nobody knows the effects of
patches on the complicated software, such as GDB, on some certain env.
It is reasonable to me that patches still cause regressions after
several rounds of careful reviews, but it doesn't mean we should take
them in source tree.

Yes, I agree.

In short, I am not strongly against this patch as it doesn't cause
critical problem, and I can live up with it.  However, it would be nice
to revert it.

I hesitated before mentioning the review effort spent on this, and
now I see that I shouldn't have. You are right, the review itself
should not justify one way or the other what to do with the patch.

However,...

I cannot understand why you think that way. If this is just an
issue of a new feature whose implementation has bugs, and no evidence
that it is impacting something else, why would you recommend that
we revert the patch? If we were to revert, no one would be able
to use the new feature; but if we keep it, at least a few people will
be able to enjoy the work that has been done so far.  I don't have
a stake in the feature itself, but I disagree on the logic behind
proposing the revert.

That being said, this is *my* reasoning, and I don't want to argue too
much to avoid creating a culture of "once it is in, it is very hard to
revert".  I'd rather we be revert-easy than the opposite. It would
help if others weighed in on this, as I will accept the choice of
the majority.

Does not apply here, IMO, because the syntac is dictated by the
language, and it's not going to change. The only thing we can do
is fix the bugs we find.
