[LLVMdev] Debug information under windows

Hello,

Recently I found binaries produced with LLVM impossible to debug under 
Windows. This was probably related to the following bug: 
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=13636

Asm generated from .ll files revealed that some offsets to debug 
information were incorrect: they were absolute instead of relative to 
their sections.

Following patch seemed to have repaired the problem, so I'm just leaving 
it here. Hopefully this will help someone.

Regards,
Daniel

Can you add some tests?

[LLVMdev] Debug information under windows

Hi,

I'm having some trouble applying this patch. Which svn version is it 
against? Because from what I can tell, the Dwarf... are not defined in 
this class or any of it's base classes in HEAD.

regards,
Emil

[LLVMdev] Debug information under windows

I was manually running generated binaries under gdb and using objdump to 
analyze their debug symbols. I do not have a script for that.

Basically what needs to be checked is whether or not offsets to 
.debug_<something> sections (e.g. DW_FORM_strp, DW_AT_ranges) are valid.

Hello again,

"fix" from my previous message was helpful only for one compilation 
unit, but was working incorrectly in case when more CUs were linked 
together.

Since the bug I've linked seems to still be unresolved, I'm sending my 
solution to it. Basically all that needed to be done was to emit 
.secrel32 instructions in few places instead of sections offsets in 
label difference form.

Here is how I've been building executable for tests (under MinGW console):

llc test.bc -filetype=asm -march=x86 -x86-asm-syntax=att 
-mtriple=i686-pc-mingw32 -disable-fp-elim
llc test_main.bc -filetype=asm -march=x86 -x86-asm-syntax=att 
-mtriple=i686-pc-mingw32 -disable-fp-elim
gcc -g -c test.s -o test.o
gcc -g -c test_main.s -o test_main.o
gcc -g test_main.o test.o -o test

Someone more familiar with LLVM code than me should probably review my 
proposed patch. My source revision was 3.1 LLVM release.

Regards,
Daniel

[LLVMdev] Debug information under windows

For reference, I have attached a patch I created some time ago to solve
this issue. My implementation differs in that I created a new type to
represent the section offset instead of special casing DIEDelta. When it
was originally committed it broke one of the build bots so it was
uncommitted. I didn't have the resources to investigate the issue so I have
been maintaining the patch on my own build.
