Chris asked me to write up "LLVM Developer's Guide to Dwarf Support" for LLVM maintainers. We are still in early stages, but we thought we'd get it out there for the "need to bleeders." At some point this information will be formalized and added to the LLVM documentation. The enclosed document gives specific instructions for adding source line number support

Hi! The LLVM Bytecode File Format specifies an optional SectionID attribute for globals. I didn't find a matching attribute in the LLVM source code. Code such as: int a __attribute__ ((section ("A_SECTION"))); compiles with llvm-gcc, but apparently the section information is stripped (the object file doesn't contain "A_SECTION"). Is the SectionID feature implemented or just defined? TIA, Yossi
