Hello,
For a project I am working on, I would like to be able to trace
conditions in C source code to branches in the output. This could be
done through debugging information, assembly comments, a separate
compiler output file, etc.
For example, if we have this condition 'if ((a == 5) || (b == 1 && c
==
0))' in our C source on line 65, I would like to be able to correlate
the branch instruction in the disassembly of the executable with each
condition. The output could let me correlate, say, a beq at location
83ce with test.c line 65 condition 1.
Is there an easy way with LLVM to add the compiler output to let us do this?
Our current method is compiling with debug information, taking an
objdump with -dl, and guessing (based on how we think the compiler
works) which branch statement represents each condition.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David Gloe
