argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

Thanks to dblaikie and dexonsmith for reviewing this patch!

Many old tests using prior schemas still had some brokenness here (both
indirect arrays and arrays with single bogus elements). Fixed those up
so they don't hit the new assertions.
Also reduced nesting in some places, etc.
llvm-svn: 208817
A bunch of test cases needed to be cleaned up for this, many my fault -
when implementid imported modules I updated test cases by simply
duplicating the prior metadata field - which wasn't always the empty
metadata entry.
llvm-svn: 200731
We are going to drop debug info without a version number or with a different
version number, to make sure we don't crash when we see bitcode files with
different debug info metadata format.

Field 2 of DIType (Context), field 9 of DIDerivedType (TypeDerivedFrom),
field 12 of DICompositeType (ContainingType), fields 2, 7, 12 of DISubprogram
(Context, Type, ContainingType).
llvm-svn: 190205
DICompositeType will have an identifier field at position 14. For now, the
field is set to null in DIBuilder.
For DICompositeTypes where the template argument field (the 13th field)
was optional, modify DIBuilder to make sure the template argument field is set.
Now DICompositeType has 15 fields.
Update DIBuilder to use NULL instead of "i32 0" for null value of a MDNode.
Update verifier to check that DICompositeType has 15 fields and the last
field is null or a MDString.
Update testing cases to include an extra field for DICompositeType.
The identifier field will be used by type uniquing so a front end can
genearte a DICompositeType with a unique identifer.
llvm-svn: 189282
We used to call Verify before adding DICompileUnit to the list, and now we
remove the check and always add DICompileUnit to the list in DebugInfoFinder,
so we can verify them later on.
llvm-svn: 187237
1> Use DebugInfoFinder to find debug info MDNodes.
2> Add disable-debug-info-verifier to disable verifying debug info.
3> Disable verifying for testing cases that fail (will update the testing cases
later on).
4> MDNodes generated by clang can have empty filename for TAG_inheritance and
TAG_friend, so DIType::Verify is modified accordingly.
Note that DebugInfoFinder does not list all debug info MDNode.
For example, clang can generate:
metadata !{i32 786468}, which will fail to verify.
This MDNode is used by debug info but not included in DebugInfoFinder.
This MDNode is generated as a temporary node in DIBuilder::createFunction
Value *TElts[] = { GetTagConstant(VMContext, DW_TAG_base_type) };
MDNode::getTemporary(VMContext, TElts)
llvm-svn: 186634
No functionality change.
It should suffice to check the type of a debug info metadata, instead of
calling Verify. For cases where we know the type of a DI metadata, use
assert.
Also update testing cases to make them conform to the format of DI classes.

This reverts commit r179840 with a fix to test/DebugInfo/two-cus-from-same-file.ll
I'm not sure why that test only failed on ARM & MIPS and not X86 Linux, even
though the debug info was clearly invalid on all of them, but this ought to fix
it.
llvm-svn: 179996
Adding another CU-wide list, in this case of imported_modules (since they
should be relatively rare, it seemed better to add a list where each element
had a "context" value, rather than add a (usually empty) list to every scope).
This takes care of DW_TAG_imported_module, but to fully address PR14606 we'll
need to expand this to cover DW_TAG_imported_declaration too.
llvm-svn: 179836
This reverts commit 342d92c7a0adeabc9ab00f3f0d88d739fe7da4c7.
Turns out we're going with a different schema design to represent
DW_TAG_imported_modules so we won't need this extra field.
llvm-svn: 178215
This is just the basic groundwork for supporting DW_TAG_imported_module but I
wanted to commit this before pushing support further into Clang or LLVM so that
this rather churny change is isolated from the rest of the work. The major
churn here is obviously adding another field (within the common DIScope prefix)
to all DIScopes (files, classes, namespaces, lexical scopes, etc). This should
be the last big churny change needed for DW_TAG_imported_module/using directive
support/PR14606.
llvm-svn: 178099
This makes DIType's first non-tag parameter the same as DIFile's, allowing them
to both share the common implementation of getFilename/getDirectory in DIScope.
llvm-svn: 177467
This is another step along the way to making all DIScopes have a common prefix
which can be added to in a general manner to support using directives
(DW_TAG_imported_module).
llvm-svn: 177462
This is the first step to making all DIScopes have a common metadata prefix (so
that things (using directives, for example) that can appear in any scope can be
added to that common prefix). DIFile is itself a DIScope so the common prefix
of all DIScopes cannot be a DIFile - instead it's the raw filename/directory
name pair.
llvm-svn: 177239
This is the next step towards making the metadata for DIScopes have a common
prefix rather than having to delegate based on their tag type.
llvm-svn: 176913
This could be 'null' or the empty string, DIDescriptor::getStringField
coalesces the two cases anyway so it's just a matter of legible/efficient
representation.
The change in behavior of the DICompileUnit::get* functions could be
subsumed by the full verification check - but ideally that should just be an
assertion if we could front-load the actual debug info metadata failure paths.
llvm-svn: 176907
The main lists of debug info metadata attached to the compile_unit had an extra
layer of metadata nodes they went through for no apparent reason. This patch
removes that (& still passes just as much of the GDB 7.5 test suite). If anyone
can show evidence as to why these extra metadata nodes are there I'm open to
reverting this patch & documenting why they're there.
