It appears that when setting a base class specifier for a given class,
the environment of the class is not propagated to the base specifier.
This patch fixes that.
* src/abg-comparison.cc (compute_diff): In the overload for
class_decl::base_spec_sptr, assert that the environment of the
base classes are equal and that the environment the base class is
the same as the environment of the base specifier.
* src/abg-ir.cc (add_base_specifier): Propagate the environment of
the class to its base specifiers.
* tests/data/test-types-stability/pr19026-libvtkIOSQL-6.1.so.1:
New test binary input.
* tests/data/Makefile.am: Add the new test input to the build
system.
* tests/test-types-stability.cc (elf_paths): Add new binary to the
test harness.

In this bug, the DWARF debug info of the binary (generated by Intel's
ICC compiler) has interesting constructs like:
[ 6b5a0] subprogram
decl_line (data2) 787
decl_column (data1) 15
decl_file (data1) 46
declaration (flag)
accessibility (data1) public (1)
type (ref4) [ 6b56a]
prototyped (flag)
name (string) "ldiv"
MIPS_linkage_name (string) "ldiv"
[ 6b5b6] formal_parameter
type (ref4) [ 5f2aa]
name (string) "$Ë2"
[ 6b5bf] formal_parameter
type (ref4) [ 5f2aa]
name (string) "$Ë3"
Note the strings that make up the name of the formal parameters of the
function, near the end:
[ 6b5b6] formal_parameter
type (ref4) [ 5f2aa]
name (string) "$Ë2"
[ 6b5bf] formal_parameter
type (ref4) [ 5f2aa]
name (string) "$Ë3"
The strings "$Ë2" and $Ë3" (which are the names of the
parameters of the function) are garbage.
Libabigail's DWARF reader naively uses those strings as names for the
function parameters, in the type of the function.
Then, the abixml writer emits an XML document, with these strings as
property values, representing the name of the type of the function.
And of course, the XML later chokes when it tries to read that XML
document, saying that the property is not valid UTF-8.
This patch addresses the issue by dropping those garbage names on the
floor, for function type names. In that context, any string that is
not made of ASCII characters is considered as being garbage, for now.
The patch, in the abixml writer, also escapes function parameters
names so that they don't contain characters that are not allowed in
XML. The abixml reader already handles the un-escaping of the names
it reads, so I think there is nothing to do there.
Ultimately, I guess I should get the unicode value of the characters
of that string, encode the string into UTF-8 and use the result as the
name for the parameter. That would mean using UTF-8 strings for
function parameter names, and, for all declarations names. But that
is too much for worfk too little gain for now. The great majority of
the binaries we are dealing with are still using ASCII for declaration
names.
The patch also introduces a new test harness that runs "abidw
--abidiff" on a bunch of input binaries. This harness runs over the
binaries that were submitted in this bug report.
* include/abg-tools-utils.h (string_is_ascii): Declare new
function ...
* src/abg-tools-utils.cc (string_is_ascii): ... and define it.
* src/abg-writer.cc (write_function_type): Escape forbidden XML
characters in function type names.
* src/abg-dwarf-reader.cc (build_function_type): If a parameter
name is not ascii, drop it on the floor.
* tests/data/test-types-stability/pr19139-DomainNeighborMapInst.o:
New test input binary.
* tests/data/test-types-stability/pr19202-libmpi_gpfs.so.5.0:
Likewise.
* tests/data/Makefile.am: Add the new binaries above to the build
system.
* tests/test-types-stability.cc: New test harness.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add the new test harness to the build system.
