Summary:
Replace any extant metadata uses of a dying instruction with undef to
preserve debug info accuracy. Some alternatives include:
- Treat Instruction like any other Value, and point its extant metadata
uses to an empty ValueAsMetadata node. This makes extant dbg.value uses
trivially dead (i.e. fair game for deletion in many passes), leading to
stale dbg.values being in effect for too long.
- Call salvageDebugInfoOrMarkUndef. Not needed to make instruction removal
correct. OTOH results in wasted work in some common cases (e.g. when all
instructions in a BasicBlock are deleted).
This came up while discussing some basic cases in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D80052.

This was arbitrarily appearing in only the last section emitted - which
made tests more sensitive than they needed to be (removing the last
section - like the macinfo section change that's coming after this)
would, surprisingly, move the blank line to the previous section.
The macinfo support was broken for LTO situations, by terminating
macinfo lists only once - multiple macinfo contributions were correctly
labeled, but they all continued/flowed into later contributions until
only one terminator appeared at the end of the section.
Correctly terminate each contribution & fix the parsing to handle this
situation too. The parsing fix is also necessary for dumping linked
binaries - the previous code would stop at the end of the first
contribution - missing all later contributions in a linked binary.
It'd be nice to improve the dumping to print the offsets of each
contribution so it'd be easier to know which CU AT_macro_info refers to
which macinfo contribution.
Summary:
This patch works around the bug in the ptxas tool with the processing of bytes
separated by the comma symbol. The emission of the packed string is
temporarily disabled.

Summary:
According to
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/archive/10.0/ptx-writers-guide-to-interoperability/index.html#cuda-specific-dwarf,
the compiler should emit the DW_AT_address_class attribute for all
variable and parameter. It means, that DW_AT_address_class attribute
should be used in the non-standard way to support compatibility with the
cuda-gdb debugger.
Clang is able to generate the information about the variable address
class. This information is emitted as the expression sequence
`DW_OP_constu <DWARF Address Space> DW_OP_swap DW_OP_xderef`. The patch
tries to find all such expressions and transform them into
`DW_AT_address_class <DWARF Address Space>` if target is NVPTX and the debugger is gdb.
If the expression is not found, then default values are used. For the
local variables <DWARF Address Space> is set to ADDR_local_space(6), for
the globals <DWARF Address Space> is set to ADDR_global_space(5). The
values are taken from the table in the same section 5.2. CUDA-Specific
DWARF Definitions.
