Subject: [RFA/commit 1/3] Revert "Search global symbols from the expression's block objfile first."
The search order used in this patch breaks global symbol lookups
for certain symbols when copy-relocation is used. A slightly different
search order will be implemented later.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Revert the following patch:
* findvar.c (default_read_var_value): For LOC_UNRESOLVED symbols,
try locating the symbol in the symbol's own objfile first, before
extending the search to all objfiles.
* symtab.c (lookup_symbol_aux_objfile): New function, extracted
out of lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs.
(lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs): Add new parameter "exclude_objfile".
Replace extracted-out code by call to lookup_symbol_aux_objfile.
Do not search EXCLUDE_OBJFILE.
(lookup_static_symbol_aux): Update call to lookup_symbol_aux_symtabs.
(lookup_symbol_global): Search for matches in the block's objfile
first, before searching all other objfiles.
Will commit if patches #2 & #3 are OK.
