The per_cu_header_read_in function allows obtaining a filled comp_unit_head object for a given dwarf2_per_cu_data object. If a dwarf2_cu object exists for this dwarf2_per_cu_data, then it just returns a pointer to the comp_unit_head from that dwarf2_cu. Otherwise, it reads the header into a temporary buffer provided by the caller, and returns a pointer to that. Since the dwarf2_per_cu_data::cu link is going to be removed (dwarf2_per_cu_data will become objfile-independent while dwarf2_cu stays objfile-dependent), we cannot rely anymore on returning the header from the dwarf2_cu object. The not too complex solution implemented by this patch is to keep a copy of the header in the dwarf2_per_cu_data object, independent from the copy in dwarf2_cu. The new copy is only used in the addr_size, offset_size and ref_addr_size methods of dwarf2_per_cu_data. There's nothing intrinsic to the comp_unit_head object that prevents it to be shared between two dwarf2_cu objects (belonging to different objfiles) representing the same CU. In other words, I think we could eventually get rid of the copy in dwarf2_cu to only keep the one in dwarf2_per_cu_data. It is not trivial, however, so I have decided not to do it for the moment. gdb/ChangeLog: * dwarf2/read.h (struct dwarf2_per_cu_data) <m_header, m_header_read_in>: New fields. <get_header>: New method. * dwarf2/read.c (per_cu_header_read_in): Remove.
