Versioned debug info support has been a burden to maintain & also compromised current debug info verification by causing test cases testing old debug info to remain rather than being updated to the latest. It also makes it hard to add or change the metadata schema by requiring various backwards-compatibility in the DI* hierarchy. So it's being removed in preparation for new changes to the schema to tidy up old/unnecessary fields and add new fields needed for new debug info (well, new to LLVM at least). The more surprising part of this is the changes to DI*::Verify - this became necessary due to the changes to AsmWriter. AsmWriter was relying on the version test to decide which bits of metadata were actually debug info when printing the comment annotations. Without the version information the tag numbers were too common & it would print debug info on random metadata that happened to start with an integer that matched a tag number. Instead this change makes the Verify functions more precise (just adding "number of operands" checks - not type checking those operands yet) & relies on that to decide which metadata is debug info metadata. llvm-svn: 176838 |
