In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Patch by Hsiangkai Wang.
llvm-svn: 331841
In DWARF v5 the Line Number Program Header is extensible, allowing values with
new content types. In this extension a content type is added,
DW_LNCT_LLVM_source, which contains the embedded source code of the file.
Add new optional attribute for !DIFile IR metadata called source which contains
source text. Use this to output the source to the DWARF line table of code
objects. Analogously extend METADATA_FILE in Bitcode and .file directive in ASM
to support optional source.
Teach llvm-dwarfdump and llvm-objdump about the new values. Update the output
format of llvm-dwarfdump to make room for the new attribute on file_names
entries, and support embedded sources for the -source option in llvm-objdump.

The major visible difference here is that in line-table dumps,
directory and file names are wrapped in double-quotes; previously,
directory names got single quotes and file names were not quoted at
all.
The improvement in this patch is that when a DWARF v5 line table
header has indirect strings, in a verbose dump these will all have
their section[offset] printed as well as the name itself. This
matches the format used for dumping strings in the .debug_info
section.

This patch adds printing for DW_AT_type DIEs like it is already the case
for DW_AT_specification DIEs. This is a rather naive approach and only a
start. We should have pretty printers for different languages.
Recommit after being reverted in r315299.

As discussed on llvm-dev in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-September/117301.html
this changes the command line interface of llvm-dwarfdump to match the
one used by the dwarfdump utility shipping on macOS. In addition to
being shorter to type this format also has the advantage of allowing
more than one section to be specified at the same time.
In a nutshell, with this change
$ llvm-dwarfdump --debug-dump=info
$ llvm-dwarfdump --debug-dump=apple-objc
becomes
$ dwarfdump --debug-info --apple-objc

This change simplifies code that has to deal with
DIGlobalVariableExpression and mirrors how we treat DIExpressions in
debug info intrinsics. Before this change there were two ways of
representing empty expressions on globals, a nullptr and an empty
!DIExpression().
If someone needs to upgrade out-of-tree testcases:
perl -pi -e 's/(!DIGlobalVariableExpression\(var: ![0-9]*)\)/\1, expr: !DIExpression())/g' <MYTEST.ll>
will catch 95%.

Summary:
Based on Fred's patch here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D6771
I can't seem to commandeer the old review, so I'm creating a new one.
With that change the locations exrpessions are pretty printed inline in the
DIE tree. The output looks like this for debug_loc entries:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_data4] (0x00000000
0x0000000000000001 - 0x000000000000000b: DW_OP_consts +3
0x000000000000000b - 0x0000000000000012: DW_OP_consts +7
0x0000000000000012 - 0x000000000000001b: DW_OP_reg0 RAX, DW_OP_piece 0x4
0x000000000000001b - 0x0000000000000024: DW_OP_breg5 RDI+0)
And like this for debug_loc.dwo entries:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_sec_offset] (0x00000000
Addr idx 2 (w/ length 190): DW_OP_consts +0, DW_OP_stack_value
Addr idx 3 (w/ length 23): DW_OP_reg0 RAX, DW_OP_piece 0x4)
Simple locations without ranges are printed inline:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_block1] (DW_OP_reg4 RSI, DW_OP_piece 0x4, DW_OP_bit_piece 0x20 0x0)
The debug_loc(.dwo) dumping in changed accordingly to factor the code.

There is no situation where this rarely-used argument cannot be
substituted with a DIExpression and removing it allows us to simplify
the DWARF backend. Note that this patch does not yet remove any of
the newly dead code.

Associate the version-when-defined with definitions of standard DWARF
constants. Identify the "vendor" for DWARF extensions.
Use this information to verify FORMs in .debug_abbrev are defined as
of the DWARF version specified in the associated unit.
Removed two tests that had specified DWARF v1 (which essentially does
not exist).
