[LLVMdev] DW_AT_location not getting generated for local variables

I figured out my previous problem with DIBuilder. However, now I can't seem
to get the compiler to emit location information for local variables.
Here's how my IR looks:

---
define i32 @"\01_main"() {
init:
  %exception1 = alloca i8*
  %0 = alloca i32
  %"bar:Int32" = alloca i32
  %1 = alloca i32
  %2 = alloca i32*
  br label %code

code:                                             ; preds = %init
  call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata !{i32* %"bar:Int32"}, metadata
!13)
  store i32 1, i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !16
  store i32 1, i32* %1, !dbg !17
  %3 = load i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !17
  %4 = load i32* %1, !dbg !17
  %5 = add i32 %3, %4, !dbg !17
  store i32 %5, i32* %"bar:Int32", !dbg !17
  store i32* %"bar:Int32", i32** %2, !dbg !18
  %6 = load i32** %2, !dbg !18
  %7 = load i32* %6, !dbg !18
  store i32 %7, i32* %0, !dbg !18
  br label %return, !dbg !18

return:                                           ; preds = %code
  %8 = load i32* %0
  ret i32 %8

exception:                                        ; No predecessors!
  unreachable
}

And this is what dwarfdump on the compiled object file shows. The
TAG_variable entry for 'bar' is missing its AT_location.

Am I using llvm.dbg.declare correctly? Is there something missing in my
metadata?

[LLVMdev] DW_AT_location not getting generated for local variables

I found the problem. The llvm.dbg.declare call must have a !dbg tag,
otherwise the location info is not generated. Changing the invocation
in my original example to "call void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata !{i32*
%"bar:Int32"}, metadata !13), !dbg !16" causes MC to generate the
local location as expected.

We want to go in direction where metadata !13 (node for DW_TAG_auto_variable)
will have enough location information for location so that !dbg is not required
for llvm.dbg.declare intrinsic.
