Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |jakub at gcc dot gnu.org --- Comment #2 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> --- You've omitted the most important information, what binutils version you are using and what binutils gcc has been configured against, because the line table is usually (with the exception of -gno-as-loc-support etc.) created by the assembler with the help of the compiler, not by the compiler itself. So, depending on what binutils has the compiler been compiled against, the .debug_line can sometimes be just DWARF 3 or 4 instead of 5 even when other sections (the compiler emitted ones) are DWARF 5 etc. When using binutils 2.36.1 against which gcc has been configured I certainly see Raw dump of debug contents of section .debug_line: Offset: 0x0 Length: 79 DWARF Version: 5 ... The Directory Table (offset 0x22, lines 2, columns 1): Entry Name 0 (indirect line string, offset: 0x10): /tmp 1 (indirect line string, offset: 0x15): out The File Name Table (offset 0x30, lines 2, columns 2): Entry Dir Name 0 0 (indirect line string, offset: 0x19): out/test.c 1 1 (indirect line string, offset: 0x24): test.c and similarly for -gno-as-loc-support on gcc configured against older binutils.
