+Enabling the debugging hooks
+----------------------------
+gcc/configure (from configure.ac) generates a .gdbinit within the "gcc"
+subdirectory of the build directory, and when run by gdb, this imports
+gcc/gdbhooks.py from the source directory, injecting useful Python code
+into gdb.
+
+You may see a message from gdb of the form:
+ "path-to-build/gcc/.gdbinit" auto-loading has been declined by your `auto-load safe-path'
+as a protection against untrustworthy python scripts. See
+ http://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Auto_002dloading-safe-path.html
+
+The fix is to mark the paths of the build/gcc directory as trustworthy.
+An easy way to do so is by adding the following to your ~/.gdbinit script:
+ add-auto-load-safe-path /absolute/path/to/build/gcc
+for the build directories for your various checkouts of gcc.
+
+If it's working, you should see the message:
+ Successfully loaded GDB hooks for GCC
+as gdb starts up.
+
+During development, I've been manually invoking the code in this way, as a
+precanned way of printing a variety of different kinds of value:
+
+ gdb \
+ -ex "break expand_gimple_stmt" \
+ -ex "run" \
+ -ex "bt" \
+ --args \
+ ./cc1 foo.c -O3
+
+Examples of output using the pretty-printers
+--------------------------------------------
+Pointer values are generally shown in the form:
+ <type address extra_info>
+
+For example, an opt_pass* might appear as:
+ (gdb) p pass
+ $2 = <opt_pass* 0x188b600 "expand"(170)>
+
+The name of the pass is given ("expand"), together with the
+static_pass_number.
+
+Note that you can dereference the pointer in the normal way:
+ (gdb) p *pass
+ $4 = {type = RTL_PASS, name = 0x120a312 "expand",
+ [etc, ...snipped...]
+
+and you can suppress pretty-printers using /r (for "raw"):
+ (gdb) p /r pass
+ $3 = (opt_pass *) 0x188b600
+
+Basic blocks are shown with their index in parentheses, apart from the
+CFG's entry and exit blocks, which are given as "ENTRY" and "EXIT":
+ (gdb) p bb
+ $9 = <basic_block 0x7ffff041f1a0 (2)>
+ (gdb) p cfun->cfg->x_entry_block_ptr
+ $10 = <basic_block 0x7ffff041f0d0 (ENTRY)>
+ (gdb) p cfun->cfg->x_exit_block_ptr
+ $11 = <basic_block 0x7ffff041f138 (EXIT)>
+
+CFG edges are shown with the src and dest blocks given in parentheses:
+ (gdb) p e
+ $1 = <edge 0x7ffff043f118 (ENTRY -> 6)>
+
+Tree nodes are printed using Python code that emulates print_node_brief,
+running in gdb, rather than in the inferior:
+ (gdb) p cfun->decl
+ $1 = <function_decl 0x7ffff0420b00 foo>
+For usability, the type is printed first (e.g. "function_decl"), rather
+than just "tree".
+
+RTL expressions use a kludge: they are pretty-printed by injecting
+calls into print-rtl.c into the inferior:
+ Value returned is $1 = (note 9 8 10 [bb 3] NOTE_INSN_BASIC_BLOCK)
+ (gdb) p $1
+ $2 = (note 9 8 10 [bb 3] NOTE_INSN_BASIC_BLOCK)
+ (gdb) p /r $1
+ $3 = (rtx_def *) 0x7ffff043e140
+This won't work for coredumps, and probably in other circumstances, but
+it's a quick way of getting lots of debuggability quickly.
+
+Callgraph nodes are printed with the name of the function decl, if
+available:
+ (gdb) frame 5
+ #5 0x00000000006c288a in expand_function (node=<cgraph_node* 0x7ffff0312720 "foo">) at ../../src/gcc/cgraphunit.c:1594
+ 1594 execute_pass_list (g->get_passes ()->all_passes);
+ (gdb) p node
+ $1 = <cgraph_node* 0x7ffff0312720 "foo">
