[PATCH v2 12/59] dyndbg, module: make proper substructs in _ddebug_info

Jim Cromie jim.cromie at gmail.com
Thu Mar 20 18:51:50 UTC 2025


recompose struct _ddebug_info, inserting proper sub-structs.

The struct currently has 2 pairs of fields: descs, num_descs and
classes, num_classes.  Several for-loops operate on these field pairs,
soon many more will be added.

Looping over these blocks by respective field-pairs is repetitive and
fiddly, differing only by the field-names.  Before adding a 3rd
section and compounding the fiddly details problem, make proper
substructs of each section, with the same named fields.

So this patch does:

Adds 3 "vector<T>" structs, each with { <T> *start, int len; }
components, for _ddebug_descriptors, _ddebug_class_maps, and
_ddebug_class_users respectively.

Invariant: These vectors ref a contiguous subrange of __section memory
in builtin/DATA or in loadable modules via mod->dyndbg_info; with
guaranteed life-time for us.

Bundles these 3 vectors (subrange-refs) struct (reformed) _ddebug_info,
where they're __packed to close the paholes introduced otherwise.

The common fields allow improving the for_subvec() macro by dropping
the ugly num_##<T> paste-up.

Also recompose struct ddebug_table to contain a _ddebug_info.  This
reinforces its use as a cursor into relevant data for a builtin
module, and access to the full _ddebug state for modules.

NOTES:

Fixup names: section names improved, struct names normalized to
_ddebug_*

struct module contains a _ddebug_info field and module/main.c sets it
up, so that gets adjusted.

The __packed attribute on _ddebug_info and the 3 contained structs
closes the holes otherwise created by the structification (which was
my excuse for not doing it originally).
