Are you referring to the vendor extensions GNU added for the DebugFission flavor of Split DWARF described here <https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DebugFission>? AFAIK, the DWARF4 Standard had no support for Split DWARF at all. > It would be...impossible? to have done DWARF5 > yet since we made major changes in the last few weeks (CU header > lengths and contents (contents a bit further in the past), > for example). OK, fair enough. But I guess I'm trying to also figure out where Split DWARF is headed. Are all of the producer going to converge on DWARF5 eventually, and if so when? And in the meantime, is it worth supporting the DebugFission flavor of Split DWARF, and where is that headed?
