Building a gdb that includes the PPC sim in C++ mode fails to link with:

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
The undefined references come from TRACE macro calls, which expand to
calls to printf_filtered.
But note that the sim's 'printf_filtered' is actually a #define to
'sim_io_printf_filtered', in sim_callbacks.h :
#define printf_filtered sim_io_printf_filtered
AFAICS, this is not meant to call gdb's printf_filtered function. The
ChangeLog entry that added the printf_filtered macro reads:
Tue Jul 30 21:12:24 1996 Andrew Cagney <cagney@kremvax.highland.com.au>
* sim_callbacks.h (sim_io_printf_filtered): Replace
printf_filtered with a local simulator specific version. Add
#define printf_filtered to simplify updating of existing code.
That is, just another incomplete/partial transition. Maybe prior to
1996 this was really meant to call gdb's printf_filtered version.
The reference to printf_filtered appears because sim_calls.c, the
compilation unit that fails to link, has this at the top:
#undef printf_filtered /* blow away the mapping */
presumably so that this further below:
void
sim_io_printf_filtered(const char *fmt,
...)
{
(...)
callbacks->printf_filtered(callbacks, "%s", message);
}
works. So those TRACE macros instances in sim_calls.c just happen to
work because gdb is linked in, which satisfies the 'printf_filtered'
reference, when GDB is built in C mode. When built in C++ mode, the
problem is exposed, as GDB's printf_filtered is mangled.
The fix here is to make the TRACE macro call sim_io_printf_filtered
directly.
(Standalone "run" doesn't fail to link simply because the offending
routines are not part of its link.)
sim/ppc/ChangeLog
2015-11-17 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* debug.h (TRACE, ITRACE, DTRACE, DITRACE, PTRACE): Call
sim_io_printf_filtered instead of printf_filtered.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
