[DWARF] Omitting the explicit import of an anonymous namespace is a debugger-tuning decision, not a target decision.

[probinson]

Summary

GDB and LLDB don't mind if we omit the explicit import of an anonymous namespace.

[probinson]

Ping. I did want to get this finished off (moving all triple-based decisions to tuning-based decisions) before 3.8 branches.

This seems like overkill for a single case.

Why not just a positive for debugger tuning SCE?

I suppose... having the big hairy test inline isn't *that* unreadable.

446–448

Because the default (i.e., no tuning specified) behavior should be to conform to the DWARF spec, which basically says you need the explicit import. There's a new extra RUN line in the test, with no tuning specified, to verify this.
GDB and LLDB are the oddballs here, they implement a special case for namespaces whose name meets certain criteria, and do something beyond what DWARF says to do. So, the condition is written to express that.

[probinson]

FTR, the previous wiring-up-thru-Clang patches put the there-must-be-a-tuning decision in the driver; CC1 does not assume or require a non-default tuning.

I don't necessarily agree with that interpretation on the explicit import - I did skim the thread, perhaps you could highlight what makes you think this?

Basically, a namespace is a "context" for declarations, and the DWARF mechanism for making declarations from one context available in another context is with DW_TAG_imported_declaration and DW_TAG_imported_module.
The C++ spec describes the behavior "as if" there was an explicit using directive, and DW_TAG_imported_module is the DWARF mechanism for describing a using directive.

The meaning of DWARF is determined by the DWARF spec, not the C++ spec, and the DWARF spec does not say there's anything special about a namespace that has no name. There is a perfectly reasonable DWARF mechanism for getting the desired effect, so there's no reason for DWARF to make a special rule for an unnamed namespace. Therefore, an anonymous namespace should be explicitly imported into the containing namespace. The explicit import would be marked artificial of course.

Ping. Have I missed something in the DWARF spec that makes you think my interpretation is incorrect? Wouldn't be the first time...

[probinson]

Ping.

[probinson]

Ping. FWIW in today's DWARF meeting, we agreed that the Appendix D example of an anonymous namespace should have an explicit import from the containing scope (see DWARF v4, Figure 57 on p.233; it was essentially unchanged in the v5 draft).

[probinson]

Ping #4.

I don't have anything to add to the reasoning the David has given you. We both agree and let's just make this a positive tuning for SCE.

Fine. It'll be on just for SCE.
// Pedantic DWARF requires explicit import but only SCE insists.

Please don't add that comment to this, I don't believe that it is valid or useful.

The DWARF committee disagrees with your validity opinion, but I will take the comment out.

[echristo]

Bring it up on the list then.

I brought it up during the document review; see my ping comment from Jan 28.

[echristo]

446–448

I saw. If you want that to be a required element of the spec then we need to change multiple wordings in the DWARF spec. I think the right place to bring that up is with the committee. The example is perfectly valid DWARF with the import, it's just unnecessary.

[probinson]

Abandoning dead patch. This wound up being done a different way.
