Hi,
I have been working on a compiler issue, where instructions associated to
the function prolog are assigned line information, causing the debugger to
show incorrectly the beginning of the function body.

Hi Carlos,
Thank your for looking into the LLDB failure. I looked into it briefly and
the issue is that we have have 2 function f and g where g is inlined into f
as the first call and this causes the first non-prologue line entry of f to
be inside the address range of g what means that when we ste
Seems like this class was added for testing. RegisterInfoInterface is a class
that creates a common API for getting lldb_private::RegisterInfo structures.
A RegisterContext_ class uses one of these to be able to create a
buffer large enough to store all registers defined in the RegisterInfoInt
Hi Tamas,
Thanks very much for your reply and the useful information.
In order to properly test my changes (I have another Debug Information
ready for submission) I would like be able to build LLDB on my local
machine. Once I reach that point, I will follow the process you described
(compile call
This is only tangential, but it is a known bug that when we stop on a line that
starts an inlined block we don't pretend we're in the outer function first, so
the user can "step-in" to the inlined function. This is particularly notable
when you have several nested levels of inlining starting at
Have you guys considered going all the way and recording multiple layers
of line information for the same range of instructions, and allowing the user
to jump up and down through the not-really-there function calls? That seems
like a very usefuil features for looking at optimized code. You’d nee
This is supported (admittedly a little awkwardly) in DWARF with the
DW_TAG_inline_subroutine DIE's in the debug_info section of the DWARF. They
can expresses the nesting fully.
I think we have all the data we need to do this right (*).
The missing part is making the right decision of which
