Bug ID: 92664 Summary: Wrong .debug_line section information when compiling stdin input with -g3 Product: gcc Version: 7.2.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: debug Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: robert.dumitru at cyberthorstudios dot com Target Milestone: --- Hello, When compiling simple test programs with -g3 and input from the console (- (stdin)), the .debug_line section is wrong. Steps to reproduce this issue: 1. In your console type: arm-none-eabi-gcc -mcpu=cortex-m4 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=fpv4-sp-d16 -O0 -g3 -c -o test.o -x c - 2. Copy and paste: #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("Hello World\n"); return 0; } 3. Ctrl+Z and Return 4. If you type: arm-none-eabi-readelf --debug-dump=decodedline test.o You get the following: Contents of the .debug_line section: CU: ./<stdin>: File name Line number Starting address View readelf: Warning: Badly formed extended line op encountered! readelf: Warning: Badly formed extended line op encountered! UNKNOWN (116): length 115 <stdin> 0 0xc <stdin> -1 0x1a <stdin> -1 0x1e <stdin> 1 0x2a UNKNOWN (0): length 4 <stdin> -1 0x36 <stdin> -6 0x42 <stdin> -8 0x50 <stdin> -7 0x5c <stdin> -7 0x60 <stdin> -5 0x6c UNKNOWN (0): length 2 <stdin> 2 0x76 <stdin> 2 0x84 <stdin> 7 0x92 <stdin> 3 0xa0 <stdin> 2 0xac <stdin> 1 0xba <stdin> 1 0xbe <stdin> 3 0xca UNKNOWN (0): length 4 <stdin> -1 0xd8 <stdin> -2 0xe4 <stdin> -3 0xf2 <stdin> -3 0xf6 <stdin> -1 0x102 UNKNOWN (0): length 1 UNKNOWN (115): length 95 <stdin> -2 0x110 <stdin> -6 0x11e <stdin> -7 0x12a <stdin> -10 0x136 <stdin> -10 0x13a <stdin> -8 0x146 UNKNOWN (0): length 1 UNKNOWN (112): length 95 5. Repeating the steps with -g instead of -g3 we get the right .debug_line section: Contents of the .debug_line section: CU: ./<stdin>: File name Line number Starting address View <stdin> 3 0 <stdin> 4 0x4 <stdin> 5 0xa <stdin> 6 0xc <stdin> 6 0x14
