[patch][python] Add symbol, symbol table and frame block support to GDB API


This patch adds symbol, symbol table and block support to the Python GDB API.  It also reconstitutes several functions missing from py-frame, and adds the glue back into python.c to make these code segments work together.  This is for the most part a merge of the code that has existed in the archer repository for sometime.

OK?

Regards

+
+@cindex blocks in python
+@tindex gdb.Block
+
+All of the name-scope contours of a program are represented as 'block'
+objects in @value{GDBN}.  Similarly, in Python these objects are
+represented as @code{gdb.Block} objects.  Each @code{gdb.Block} object
+has to be sourced, and parented from a @code{gdb.Frame} object.  The
+validity of a @code{gdb.Block} follows the same rules as that of a
+@code{gdb.Frame}  (@pxref{Frames In Python} for more information).
+
+The structure of a @code{gdb.Block} follows the same rules as the
+underlying @value{GDBN} block.  This can be summarized as: each block
+represents one name scope; each lexical context has its own block.
+
+The following block-related functions are available in the @code{gdb}
+module:
+
+@findex gdb.block_for_pc pc
+@defun block_for_pc pc
+Return the @code{gdb.Block} containing the given @code{pc} value.  If the
+block cannot be found for the @code{pc} value specified, the function
+will return @code{None}.
+@end defun
+
+A @code{gdb.Block} object has the following attributes:
+
+@table @code
+@defivar Block start
+This attribute holds the start address of the block.  This attribute is not
+writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Block end
+This attribute holds the end address of the block.  This attribute
+is not writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Block function
+This attribute holds the name of the block represented as a
+@code{gdb.Symbol}.  If the block is not named, then this attribute
+returns @code{None}.  This attribute is not writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Block superblock
+This attribute holds the superblock containing this block represented as a
+@code{gdb.Block}.  If a superblock does not exist, this attribute holds
+@code{None}.  This attribute is not writable.

+@end table
+
+@node Symbols In Python
+@subsubsection Python representation of Symbols.
+
+@cindex symbols in python
+@tindex gdb.Symbol
+
+@value{GDBN} represents the name of every variable, function and type
+as a symbol (@pxref{Symbols, ,Examining the Symbol Table}).  Similarly,
+Python represents these symbols in @value{GDBN} with the
+@code{gdb.Symbol} object.
+
+The following symbol-related functions are available in the @code{gdb}
+module:
+
+@findex gdb.lookup_symbol name [block] [domain]
+@defun lookup_symbol name [block] [domain]
+This function looks up a symbol by name.  The search scope can be
+restricted to the parameters defined in the optional domain and block
+arguments.
+
+@var{name} is the name of the symbol to look-up.  It must be a
+string.  The optional @var{block} argument restricts the look-up to
+symbols visible in that @var{block}.  The @var{block} argument must be a
+@code{gdb.Block} object.  The optional @var{domain} argument restricts
+the look-up to the domain type.  The @var{domain} argument must be a
+domain constant defined in the @code{gdb} module and described later
+in this chapter.
+@end defun
+
+A @code{gdb.Symbol} object has the following attributes:
+
+@table @code
+@defivar Symbol symtab
+The symbol table in which the symbol appears.  This attribute is
+represented as a @code{gdb.Symtab} object.  @xref{Symbol Tables In
+Python}.  This attribute is not writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol name
+The name of the symbol as a string.  This attribute is not writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol linkage_name
+The name of the symbol, as used by the linker (i.e., may be mangled).
+This attribute is not writable.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol print_name
+The name of the symbol in a form suitable for output.  This is either
+name or linkage_name, depending on whether the user asked @value{GDBN}
+to display demangled or mangled names.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol addr_class
+The address class of the symbol.  This classifies how to find the value
+of a symbol.  Each address class is a constant defined in the
+@code{gdb} module and described later in this chapter.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol is_argument
+Returns @code{True} if the symbol is an argument of a function.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol is_constant
+Returns @code{True} if the symbol is a constant.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol is_function
+Returns @code{True} if the symbol is a function or a method.
+@end defivar
+
+@defivar Symbol is_variable
+Returns @code{True} if the symbol is a variable.
+@end defivar
+@end table

+The available domain categories in @code{gdb.Symbol} are represented
+as constants in the @code{gdb} module:
+
+@table @code
+@findex SYMBOL_UNDEF_DOMAIN
+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_UNDEF_DOMAIN
+@item SYMBOL_UNDEF_DOMAIN
+This is used when a domain has not been discovered or none of the

+in the symbol information or in @value{GDBN}'s handling of symbols.
+@findex SYMBOL_VAR_DOMAIN
+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_VAR_DOMAIN

+This domain contains variables, function names, typedef names and enum
+type values.

+@item SYMBOL_STRUCT_DOMAIN
+This domain holds struct, union and enum type names.
+@findex SYMBOL_LABEL_DOMAIN
+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_LABEL_DOMAIN
+@item SYMBOL_LABEL_DOMAIN
+This domain contains names of labels (for gotos).
+@findex SYMBOL_VARIABLES_DOMAIN
+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_VARIABLES_DOMAIN

+@item SYMBOL_LOC_UNDEF
+If this is returned by address class, it indicates an error either in

+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_LOC_REGPARM_ADDR

+Value is a byte-sequence.
+@findex SYMBOL_LOC_UNRESOLVED
+@findex gdb.SYMBOL_LOC_UNRESOLVED
