Commit Message

Joey Ye Feb. 17, 2013, 2:13 a.m. UTC
Mainline and 4.7 failed to use LTO when toolchain is installed to a path
with space in it. Resulting in error message like:

xxxx/ld.exe: c:/program: error loading plugin
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Root cause is when GCC driver process specs, it doesn't handle plugin file
name properly. Here is a patch fixing it.

Bootstraped and make check on x86 and aarch32, no regression.

OK to trunk and 4.7?

ChangeLog:

	PR lto/50293
	* gcc.c (convert_white_space): New function.
	(main): Handles white space in function name.

Please fix formatting in many places in this patch to follow the GNU 
Coding Standards.  No space after '*', but space before '('; there seem to 
be various other formatting problems as well.

That doesn't seem to be a proper specification of the interface to this 
function.  What are the semantics of ORIG?  A string that is a filename, 
or something else?  What are the exact semantics of the return value for 
quoting - is it correct for the function to convert a (backslash, space) 
pair to (backslash, backslash, space) or not?  Is anything special in the 
return value other than backslash and space, and how are any special 
characters in the return value to be interpreted?

As it seems like this function frees the argument (why?) this also needs 
to be specified in the comment as part of the semantics of the function.

It would be a good idea for you to give a more detailed explanation in the 
next version of the patch submission of how the path, before the patch, 
got processed so that the spaces were wrongly interpreted.  That might 
help make clearer whether the interface to this new function is actually 
correct, since the subsequent operations on the return value should act as 
an inverse to the operation carried out by this function.

Does this patch also work with MS-Windows as host, i.e. with \ as path 
separator?

This patch itself doesn't handle '\'. As it should in comments:
"a\\ b" -> "a\\\\ b"

But I doubt \ is a problem, as Mingw or Cygwin changes it to / instead.
