This is preparation for adding support for reading Linux C++ exception
handling data's encoded pointers. The change should have no user-visible
effect; it simply expands the comments for dwarf2reader::ByteReader, and
regroups the member functions.

Without this patch, debugging information like the following will produce
FUNC records with no names, because the dumper (correctly) ignores the
DW_TAG_subprogram DIEs that lack DW_AT_low_pc/DW_AT_high_pc attributes, but
won't follow the DW_AT_abstract_origin link from the DIE that does have
code addresses to find its name.

Yes, classes are useful. But that doesn't mean that every function has
to gratuitously become a member function. The Google C++ Style Guide
does not require this silliness, since the function is in the
google_breakpad namespace anyway.

This also includes some comments I promised Cary Coutant I'd write
about the appropriateness of processing attributes in EndAttributes
calls.
The Google C++ Style Guide requires each file to have an author notice
and a comment explaining the file's general purpose. For the record, I
don't think putting an author notice on the files is a good idea; it's
odd to have the original author retain prominence even if the file has
been heavily edited by others; the version control system answers this
question more accurately. This is only for Style Guide compliance. The
Apache group decided to discourage author annotations, partially for
these reasons:

This extends the ElfArchitecture function to recognize the

This adds DWARF support to the Breakpad Linux dumper. This is
implemented as two handler classes: google_breakpad::DwarfCUToModule
accepts data from dwarf2reader::CompilationUnit, and
google_breakpad::DwarfLineToModule accepts data from a
dwarf2reader::LineInfo, each populating a google_breakpad::Module with
the results. Behaviors specific to particular source languages are
handled by instances of a new class, google_breakpad::Language.
An input executable may contain both STABS and DWARF debugging
information: the dumper automatically recognizes what sorts of
information are available, and integrates the data into a single
output file.
All classes have unit tests, providing line and branch coverage of all
interesting code. Unit tests are written using the Google C++ Testing
Framework, and the Google C++ Mocking Framework where appropriate.

dwarf2reader::CompilationUnit is a simple and direct parser for DWARF
data, but its handler interface is not convenient to use. In
particular, the same handler object receives data about all DIEs
processed. One can't use distinct classes to separate the information
needed to handle different kinds of data.
This patch defines a new adapter type, dwarf2reader::DIEHandler, which
implements the existing DWARF parser's handler interface, given a
handler written to a more comfortable, object-orient interface. The
comments in dwarf2diehandler.h provide more detail.

The stabs reading code in google-breakpad incorrectly assumes that the
stabs data is a single compilation unit. Specifically, it ignores
N_UNDF stabs and assumes that all string indices are relative to the
beginning of the .stabstr section.
This is true when linking with the GNU linker by default, because the
GNU linker optimizes stabs debug info. The gold linker does not do
this optimization. It can be disabled when using the GNU linker with
the --traditional-format command line option.
For more details of the problem, see:

Add a new member function to dwarf2reader::Dwarf2Handler,
ProcessAttributeReference, for reporting attribute values that are
references to other DIEs. This handler member function always receives
an absolute offset (that is, relative to the start of the .debug_info
section, not to the start of the compilation unit), regardless of the
form the attribute uses. (Some forms are CU-relative, some are
absolute.)

Fix typos.
For CompilationUnit::Start, I was confused by the '-' in the original
comment, taking it for a parenthetic clause marker, assuming an
implicit "of the next compilation unit" at the end of the sentence.
The comments should refer to the ".debug_info" section, not the
"debug_info" section. The latter is not the section name actually used
on any system (ELF or Mach-O), and the former is the name prescribed
by the DWARF spec.
Some of the comments for ProcessAttribute* member functions claim that
OFFSET is from the start of the compilation unit, but that's not so:
the code has always passed an offset relative to the start of the
.debug_info section.

src/common/dwarf/dwarf2reader.cc uses the old-fashioned <stdio.h>
facilities to report errors. Ideally, we would add a 'Warning' message
to the handler and make the client responsible for dealing with the
errors, but this at least allows us to compile.
Ubuntu 9.10 uses GCC 4.4.1; under older versions of GCC, this wasn't a
problem, probably because stdio.h was being brought in inadvertently
somewhere else.

It seems that a use of the <stdint.h> type uintptr_t has crept into
the DWARF parser. This defines a workaround for the GNU compilers
(tested on both Mac and Linux) which will raise an error if it doesn't
work.
My personal preference would be just to assume that the <stdint.h>
header is available and use the standard types everywhere, but 1) that
would be a large change, likely to make merges with the other branches
of the DWARF parser more difficult, and 2) it would make it quite
difficult to build under Microsoft Visual Studio, which doesn't have
the <stdint.h> header; Microsoft has said they have no plans to
provide it, as they would rather "focus their efforts" on C++ and
.NET.

Building on Ubuntu 9.10 with the distributed compiler (GCC 4.4.1), we get
warnings like the following:
guid_creator.cc:56: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

reinterpret casts in an endian-dependent way when there are plenty of
well-defined ways to get the same effect.

The test system is based on Google C++ Testing Framework and the
Google C++ Mocking Framework.
This includes a parser that turns human-readable input files ("mock
stabs") into .stab and .stabstr section contents, which we can then
pass to a StabsReader instance, using a handler object written with
GoogleMock. The 'make check' target in src/tools/linux/dump_syms runs
this.
The supplied input file is pretty small, but I've done coverage
testing, and it does cover the parser.
I thought the mock stabs parser would be less elaborate than it turned
out to be. Lesson learned.

If the input passed to a StabsReader instance contains a compilation
unit whose first entry is an N_SO with no name, the parser enters an

ProcessCompilationUnit should skip them.

Modern GNU compilers warn about the #inclusion of <ext/hash_map>; that
container is deprecated, and code should use <tr1/unordered_map>
instead. However, to stay within the boundaries of C++ '98, it's
probably fine just to use plain old std::map.
Breakpad uses hash_map in three cases:
o The DWARF reader's SectionMap type maps object file section names to
data. This map is consulted once per section kind per DWARF
compilation unit; it is not performance-critical.
o The Mac dump_syms tool uses it to map machine architectures to
section maps in Universal binaries. It's hard to imagine there
ever being more than two entries in such a map.
o The processor's BasicSourceLineResolver uses a hash_map to map file
numbers to file names. This is the map that will probably have the
most entries, but it's only accessed once per frame, after we've
found the frame's line entry.

that can represent the contents of a breakpad symbol file. Module::Write
writes a well-formed symbol file to the given stream.
src/linux/common/dump_symbols.cc can now lose its symbol-file-writing
code, and change DumpStabsHandler to populate a Module object, rather
than the old SymbolInfo/SourceFileInfo/... collection of types.
The code to compute function and line sizes, even in the absence of
reliable size data in STABS, is moved into a new Finalize method of
DumpStabsHandler, which is responsible for completing the Module's
