Subject: [PATCH 11/17] dyndbg: macrofy a 2-index for-loop pattern
Date: Mon, 04 May 2026 14:45:17 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504-dd-cleanups-2-v1-11-6fdd24040642@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260504-dd-cleanups-2-v1-0-6fdd24040642@gmail.com>
dynamic-debug currently has 2 __sections (__dyndbg, __dyndb_classes),
struct _ddebug_info keeps track of them both, with 2 members each:
_vec and _vec#_len.
We need to loop over these sections, with index and record pointer,
making ref to both _vec and _vec_len. This is already fiddly and
error-prone, and will get worse as we add a 3rd section.
Lets instead embed/abstract the fiddly-ness in the `for_subvec()`
macro, and avoid repeating it going forward.
This is a for-loop macro expander, so it syntactically expects to
precede either a single statement or a { block } of them, and the
usual typeof or do-while-0 tricks are unavailable to fix the
multiple-expansion warning.
The macro needs a lot from its caller: it needs 2 local vars, 1 of
which is a ref to a contained struct with named members. To support
these requirements, add:
1. __ASSERT_IS_LVALUE(_X):
ie: ((void)sizeof((void)0, &(x)))
2. __ASSERT_HAS_VEC_MEMBERS(_X, _Y):
compile-time check that the _Y "vector" exists
ie: _X->_Y and _X->num_##_Y are lvalues.
The for_subvec() macro then invokes these in the initialization of the
for-loop; they disappear at runtime.
