Hi sorta piggybacking on the other thread. I am looking for some feedback on how to implement the following idea in llvm. The really short version of the idea is this: * I want to alloca a field (record/struct), so that its size is an even multiple of 64 bytes. [^1] * This allocaed field will be exclusively used as an argument to functions * llvm should be aware of the extra bytes and should

Hi, First, considering I'm using an IRBuilder and a DIBuilder to build my program, how can I automatically bind the CreateAlloca with my named local variable inside the DIBuilder ? Is it automatic with the Twine name of CreateAlloca ? And/Or should I use DIBuilder::createAutoVariable and how ? Then, I'm wondering how to locate back my local variable in memory (register or stack) once i

Hello All, I have created a set of patches that get dwarf debugging support working for the COFF object file. I also believe I have fixed what appears to be a bug in how line info sections are referred to from the DW_TAG_compile_unit DIE. I have run some basic tests, analyzed dumps of both the objects files and the final executables, and run a test program against mingw-gdb and everything looks

So, after many shenanigans, we finally have -gmlt-like inline summary debug info in .debug_info when using -gsplit-dwarf (see r221306). Hooray \o/ Testing this with asan, it seems to be working: Given a simple example of inlining failure: $ cat asan.cpp __attribute__((always_inline)) inline void func(int* i) { *i = 3; } int main() { func(nullptr); } The failures before this change: #0

After to speaking to Devang and a number of other people at the developer's conference, I was able to make some forward progress on getting debugging to work. I'm now able to actually single-step through my program and set breakpoints, and examine function parameters. However, I'm also seeing a lot of new problems which weren't exposed before. After spending the better part of two

Binding the alloca to the debug-info metadata is not automatic. You need to emit an intrinsic function call to llvm.dbg.declare to bind the two together. If you are simply trying to emit DWARF for your program, the rest of the processing should already be in place for that. If you are trying to do something else, you would need to describe that so we understand what you need. --paulr From:

Re DW_FORM_string the savings is small but since it came up I thought I'd mention the idea. I agree it's not worth pursuing any further. An API to use that form explicitly (that isn't the normal debug-info generation API) to facilitate testing is fine. Regarding DWARF parsing speed where strings are concerned: DWARF 5 will ruin this because DW_FORM_strx is a ULEB; so, every DIE
