similar to: print signature of function from dwarf info in file?

>From my understanding, the LLVM classes are just representing the DWARF information without doing any extra work, so I am afraid that you will have to explicitly chase through all the DWARF information yourself.

Hi I'm using llvm-5. Browsing the source of llvm-dwarfdump and trying it on some shared libraries, I see I can print the debug info (assuming it exists). For some function, I'm wondering if there's a short cut to prettyprinting the signature of a function in the library? I think, looking at the output, that enough information exists but it seems to involve looking at the subprogram

I have some ideas to allow the BitcodeReader to lazy-load debug info metadata, and wanted to air this on llvm-dev before getting too deep into the code. Motivation ========== Based on some analysis Mehdi ran (ping him for details), there are three (related) compile-time bottlenecks we're seeing with `-flto=thin -g`: a) Reading the large number of Metadata bitcode records in the global

Are you perhaps not calling void Function::setSubprogram (DISubprogram * SP) http://llvm.org/doxygen/classllvm_1_1Function.html#a05a19abc8ee11d5909275d980efa1670 ? -- adrian > On Nov 18, 2016, at 8:46 AM, David Blaikie <dblaikie at gmail.com> wrote: > > (+Adrian who might have some more context here) > > Generally I'd suggest looking at Clang's code to see how

+pcc, who had some other ideas/patch out for improving memory usage of debug info +Reid, who's responsible for the windows/CodeView/PDB debug info which is motivating some of the ideas about changes to type emission So how does this relate, or not, to Peter's (pcc) work trying to reduce the DIE overhead during code gen? Are you folks chasing different memory bottlenecks? Are they both

I recently upgraded a codebase to use LLVM 3.9.0, up from 3.7.1. All seems to work well, except that I am unable to generate debug information. However, if I run objdump -g on the generated object file, it reports that the compile unit has no children: Contents of the .debug_abbrev section: Number TAG (0x0) 1 DW_TAG_compile_unit [no children] DW_AT_producer DW_FORM_strp

That happens because we create the subprogram below as a context to the “DW_TAG_typedef” that was created as a type to “DW_TAG_pointer_type” that was added to the retained type list because of the explicit cast to (T*). This is the code that creates DW_TAG_subprogram: DIE *DwarfUnit::getOrCreateSubprogramDIE(const DISubprogram *SP, bool Minimal) { ... // DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine may refer

Hi David, OK, I got that DIE in Compile Unit scope may point to a DIE in subprogram scope. But how about that we are emitting a subprogram entry that has no attributes? 0x0000002b: DW_TAG_subprogram [3] * 0x0000002c: DW_TAG_typedef [4] DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (cu + 0x0040 => {0x00000040}) DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_strp] (

Hi all, We have profiled [1] the memory usage in LLVM when LTO'ing Chromium, and we've found that one of the top consumers of memory is the DWARF emitter in lib/CodeGen/AsmPrinter/Dwarf*. I've been reading the DWARF emitter code and I have a few ideas in mind for how to reduce its memory consumption. One idea I've had is to restructure the emitter so that (for the most part) it

Branching off from a discussion of improvements to DIGlobalVariable representations that Adrian's working on - got me thinking about related changes that have already been made to DISubprogram. To reduce duplicate debug info when things like linkonce_odr functions were deduplicated in LTO linking, the relationship between a CU and DISubprogram was inverted (instead of a CU maintaining a list

Hi, I am wondering if this behavior of creating debug info is correct. A type in compile unit entry is pointing to a type under subprogram entry?! This is the root cause of https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27579 0x0000000b: DW_TAG_compile_unit [1] * 0x00000026: DW_TAG_pointer_type [2] DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (cu + 0x002c => {0x0000002c})

Hi, If I have an instance of DISubprogram, can I get the debug info of local variables of the function, including parameters? I tried to use the getVariables() function defined in DISubprogram, but it seemed to return an empty DIArray node when I ran my pass alone using opt. Do I need to enable any other analysis passes in order to populate the data? My related snippet of code is like the
