If a function doesn't have an exact definition, don't apply debugify
metadata as it triggers a DIVerifier failure.
The issue is that it's invalid to have DILocations inside a DISubprogram
which isn't a definition ("scope points into the type hierarchy!").

Opt's "-enable-debugify" mode adds an instance of Debugify at the
beginning of the pass pipeline, and an instance of CheckDebugify at the
end.
You can enable this mode with lit using: -Dopt="opt -enable-debugify".
Note that running test suites in this mode will result in many failures
due to strict FileCheck commands, etc.
It can be more useful to look for assertion failures which arise only
when Debugify is enabled, e.g to prove that we have (or do not have)
test coverage for some code path with debug info present.

The Debugify pass synthesizes debug info for IR. It's paired with a
CheckDebugify pass which determines how much of the original debug info
is preserved. These passes make it easier to create targeted tests for
debug info preservation.
Here is the Debugify algorithm:
NextLine = 1
for (Instruction &I : M)
attach DebugLoc(NextLine++) to I
NextVar = 1
for (Instruction &I : M)
if (canAttachDebugValue(I))
attach dbg.value(NextVar++) to I
The CheckDebugify pass expects contiguous ranges of DILocations and
DILocalVariables. If it fails to find all of the expected debug info, it
prints a specific error to stderr which can be FileChecked.
This was discussed on llvm-dev in the thread:
