Hello,

This patch series adds support for CTF generation in GCC.

[Changes from V4]

1. Patch 4 brings in a number of bug fixes and enhancements. Few of them are:
   - Use DECL_UID () instead of htab_hash_pointer () for _DECL
   - Handle boolean and zero-sized bitfields
   - Do not inform () when skipping types.  Arguably this was intended for the
     GCC developer and not for the end user.
   - Other bugfixes around de-dupilication at the time of CTF Array or CTF
     function generation.

2. Patch 5 has added testcases.

3. Patch 6 is a new patch added for handling CTF section when LTO is enabled.

Work on CTF spec document is also in progress; will share something very soon.
In the interim, https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2019-04/msg00277.html may be
helpful.

For more context, please also see previous posting
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2019-07/msg01209.html

NickA recently posted a changeset to the binutils mailing list that adds initial
support for linking CTF sections. Please see
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2019-09/msg00045.html

( This current GCC  patch set has the ctf.h in sync with the above-mentioned
   binutils patch set. )

I will be connecting online to talk about the CTF support in GNU toolchain at
Cauldron 2019.  Posting these patches so that there is added context.

Testing :
Apart from the usual bootstrap and regression testing on x86_64/linux,
sparc64/linux, I have now compiled more codebases with -gt.

Thanks

Indu Bhagat (6):
  Add new function lang_GNU_GIMPLE
  Add CTF command line options : -gtLEVEL
  Setup for CTF generation and emission
  CTF generation for a single compilation unit
  Update CTF testsuite
  Handle CTF sections when LTO is enabled
