Clang -gsplit-dwarf self-host -O0, binary increases by 0.0005%, -O2,
binary increases by 25%.
A large binary inside Google, split-dwarf, -O0, and other internal flags
(GDB index, etc) increases by 1.8%, optimized build is 35%.
The size impact may be somewhat greater in .o files (I haven't measured
that much - since the linked executable -O0 numbers seemed low enough)
due to relocations. These relocations could be removed if we taught the
llvm-symbolizer to handle indexed addressing in the .o file (GDB can't
cope with this just yet, but GDB won't be reading this info anyway).
Also debug_ranges could be shared between .o and .dwo, though ideally
debug_ranges would get a schema that could used index(+offset)
addressing, and move to the .dwo file, then we'd be back to sharing
addresses in the address pool again.
But for now, these sizes seem small enough to go ahead with this.
Verified that no other DW_TAGs are produced into the .o file other than
subprograms and inlined_subroutines.

This was a compile-unit specific label (unused in type units) and seems
unnecessary anyway when we can more easily directly compute the size of
the compile unit.

This fixes a bug (introduced by fixing the IR emitted from Clang where
the definition of a static member would be scoped within the class,
rather than within its lexical decl context) where the definition of a
static variable would be placed inside a class.
It also improves source fidelity by scoping static class member
definitions inside the lexical decl context in which tehy are written
(eg: namespace n { class foo { static int i; } int foo::i; } - the
definition of 'i' will be within the namespace 'n' in the DWARF output
now).
Lastly, and the original goal, this reduces debug info size slightly
(and makes debug info easier to read, etc) by placing the definitions of
non-member global variables within their namespace, rather than using a
separate namespace-scoped declaration along with a definition at global
scope.
Based on patches and discussion with Frédéric.

Every target we support has support for assembly that looks like
a = b - c
.long a
What is special about MachO is that the above combination suppresses the
production of a relocation.
With this change we avoid producing the intermediary labels when they don't
add any value.

DW_AT_specification and DW_AT_abstract_origin resolving was only performed
on subroutine DIEs because it used the getSubroutineName method. Introduce
a more generic getName() and use it to dump the reference attributes.
Testcases have been updated to check the printed names instead of the offsets
except when the name could be ambiguous.

This reverts commit r218918, effectively reapplying r218914 after fixing
an Ocaml bindings test and an Asan crash. The root cause of the latter
was a tightened-up check in `DILexicalBlock::Verify()`, so I'll file a
PR to investigate who requires the loose check (and why).
Original commit message follows.

This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString. Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.
Part of PR17891.
Note: I've attached my testcases upgrade scripts to the PR. If I've
just broken your out-of-tree testcases, they might help.

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.

This allows proper disambiguation of unbounded arrays and arrays of zero
bound ("struct foo { int x[]; };" and "struct foo { int x[0]; }"). GCC
instead produces an upper bound of -1 in the latter situation, but count
seems tidier. This way lower_bound is provided if it's not the language
default and count is provided if the count is known, otherwise it's
omitted. Simple.
If someone wants to look at rdar://problem/12566646 and see if this
change is acceptable to that bug/fix, that might be helpful (see the
empty-and-one-elem-array.ll test case which cites that radar).

It's probably not a huge deal to not do this - if we could, maybe the
address could be reused by a subprogram low_pc and avoid an extra
relocation, but it's just one per CU at best.
llvm-svn: 217338
DWARF address ranges contain a reference to the debug_info section. This offset
is an absolute relocation except on non-PE/COFF targets where it is section
relative. We would emit this incorrectly, and trying to map the debug info from
the address would fail.
llvm-svn: 217317
The header contains an offset to the DWARF line table for the CU. The offset
must be section relative for COFF and absolute for others. The non-assembly
code path for the DWARF header generation already has the correct emission for
the headers. This corrects the assembly input path.
This was identified by BFD objecting to the LLVM generated DWARF information.

DW_TAG_lexical_scopes inform debuggers about the instruction range for
which a given variable (or imported declaration/module/etc) is valid. If
the scope doesn't itself contain any such entities, it's a waste of
space and should be omitted.
We were correctly doing this for entirely empty leaves, but not for
intermediate nodes.
Reduces total (not just debug sections) .o file size for a bootstrap
-gmlt LLVM by 22% and bootstrap -gmlt clang executable by 13%. The wins
for a full -g build will be less as a % (and in absolute terms), but
should still be substantial - with some of that win being fewer
relocations, thus more substantiall reducing link times than fewer bytes
alone would have.

Somewhat unnoticed in the original implementation of discriminators, but
it could cause instructions to end up in new, small,
DW_TAG_lexical_blocks due to the use of DILexicalBlock to track
discriminator changes.
Instead, use DILexicalBlockFile which we already use to track file
changes without introducing new scopes, so it works well to track
discriminator changes in the same way.

refactoring in 215384. This way it can unique multiple entries describing
the same piece even if they don't have the exact same location.

There ought to be a more elegant solution for this, though.

Due to an unnecessary special case, inlined arguments that happened to
be from the same function as they were inlined into were misclassified
as non-inline arguments and would overwrite the non-inlined arguments.
Assert that we never overwrite a function's arguments, and stop
misclassifying inlined arguments as non-inline arguments to fix this
issue.
Excuse the rather crappy test case - handcrafted IR might do better, or
someone who understands better how to tickle the inliner to create a
recursive inlining situation like this (though it may also be necessary
to tickle the variable in a particular way to cause it to be recorded in
the MMI side table and go down this particular path for location
information).
llvm-svn: 215157
This was coming in weird debug info that had variables (and hence
debug_locs) but was in GMLT mode (because it was missing the 13th field
of the compile_unit metadata) so no ranges were constructed. We should
always have at least one range for any CU with a debug_loc in it -
because the range should cover the debug_loc.
The assertion just ensures that the "!= 1" range case inside the
subsequent loop doesn't get entered for the case where there are no
ranges at all, which should never reach here in the first place.
llvm-svn: 214939
Without the 13th field, the "emission kind" field defaults to 0 (which
is not equal to either of the values of the emission kind enum (1 ==
full debug info, 2 == line tables only)).
In this particular instance, the comparison with "FullDebugInfo" was
done when adding elements to the ranges list - so for these test cases
no values were added to the ranges list.
This got weirder when emitting debug_loc entries as the addresses should
be relative to the range of the CU if the CU has only one range (the
reasonable assumption is that if we're emitting debug_loc lists for a CU
that CU has at least one range - but due to the above situation, it has
zero) so the ranges were emitted relative to the start of the section
rather than relative to the start of the CU's singular range.
Fix these tests by accounting for the difference in the description of
debug_loc entries (in some cases making the test ignorant to these
differences, in others adding the extra label difference expression,
etc) or the presence/absence of high/low_pc on the CU, and add the 13th
field to their CUs to enable proper "full debug info" emission here.
In a future commit I'll fix up a bunch of other test cases that are not
so rigorously depending on this behavior, but still doing similarly
weird things due to the missing 13th field.

variables (for example, by-value struct arguments passed in registers, or
large integer values split across several smaller registers).
On the IR level, this adds a new type of complex address operation OpPiece
to DIVariable that describes size and offset of a variable fragment.
On the DWARF emitter level, all pieces describing the same variable are
collected, sorted and emitted as DWARF expressions using the DW_OP_piece
and DW_OP_bit_piece operators.

What this patch doesn't do / Future work:
- This patch only adds the backend machinery to make this work, patches
that change SROA and SelectionDAG's type legalizer to actually create
such debug info will follow. (http://reviews.llvm.org/D2680)
- Making the DIVariable complex expressions into an argument of dbg.value
will reduce the memory footprint of the debug metadata.
- The sorting/uniquing of pieces should be moved into DebugLocEntry,
to facilitate the merging of multi-piece entries.

Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

This recommits r208930, r208933, and r208975 (by reverting r209338) and
reverts r209529 (the FIXME to readd this functionality once the tools
were fixed) now that DWP has been fixed to cope with a single section
for all fission type units.
Original commit message:
"Since type units in the dwo file are handled by a debug aware tool,
they don't need to leverage the ELF comdat grouping to implement
deduplication. Avoid creating all the .group sections for these as a
space optimization."

Reverted by Eric Christopher (Thanks!) in r212203 after Bob Wilson
reported LTO issues. Duncan Exon Smith and Aditya Nandakumar helped
provide a reduced reproduction, though the failure wasn't too hard to
guess, and even easier with the example to confirm.
The assertion that the subprogram metadata associated with an
llvm::Function matches the scope data referenced by the DbgLocs on the
instructions in that function is not valid under LTO. In LTO, a C++
inline function might exist in multiple CUs and the subprogram metadata
nodes will refer to the same llvm::Function. In this case, depending on
the order of the CUs, the first intance of the subprogram metadata may
not be the one referenced by the instructions in that function and the
assertion will fail.
A test case (test/DebugInfo/cross-cu-linkonce-distinct.ll) is added, the
assertion removed and a comment added to explain this situation.
This was then reverted again in r213581 as it caused PR20367. The root
cause of this was the early exit in LiveDebugVariables meant that
spurious DBG_VALUE intrinsics that referenced dead variables were not
removed, causing an assertion/crash later on. The fix is to have
LiveDebugVariables strip all DBG_VALUE intrinsics in functions without
debug info as they're not needed anyway. Test case added to cover this
situation (that occurs when a debug-having function is inlined into a
nodebug function) in test/DebugInfo/X86/nodebug_with_debug_loc.ll
Original commit message:
If a function isn't actually in a CU's subprogram list in the debug info
metadata, ignore all the DebugLocs and don't try to build scopes, track
variables, etc.
While this is possibly a minor optimization, it's also a correctness fix
for an incoming patch that will add assertions to LexicalScopes and the
debug info verifier to ensure that all scope chains lead to debug info
for the current function.
Fix up a few test cases that had broken/incomplete debug info that could
violate this constraint.
Add a test case where this occurs by design (inlining a
debug-info-having function in an attribute nodebug function - we want
this to work because /if/ the nodebug function is then inlined into a
debug-info-having function, it should be fine (and will work fine - we
just stitch the scopes up as usual), but should the inlining not happen
we need to not assert fail either).
