cmd/compile: enhance debug_test for infinite loops
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
ssa/debug_test.go already had a step limit; this exposes
it to individual tests, and it is then set low for the
infinite loop tests.

That however is not enough; in an infinite loop debuggers
see an unchanging line number, and therefore keep trying
until they see a different one.  To do this, the concept
of a "bogus" line number is introduced, and on output
single-instruction infinite loops are detected and a
hardware nop with correct line number is inserted into
the loop; the branch itself receives a bogus line number.

This breaks up the endless stream of same line number and
causes both gdb and delve to not hang; Delve complains
about the incorrect line number while gdb does
a sort of odd step-to-nowhere that then steps back
to the loop.  Since repeats are suppressed in the reference
file, a single line is shown there.

(The wrong line number mentioned in previous message
was an artifact of debug_test.go, not Delve, and is now
fixed.)

The bogus line number exposed in Delve is less than
wonderful, but compared to hanging, it is better.

Fixes #30664.
