<p>The idea of the LLVM debugging information is to capture how the important
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
pieces of the source-language's Abstract Syntax Tree map onto LLVM code.
|
|
|
|
|
Several design aspects have shaped the solution that appears here. The
|
|
|
|
|
important ones are:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
<li>Debugging information should have very little impact on the rest of the
|
|
|
|
|
compiler. No transformations, analyses, or code generators should need to be
|
|
|
|
|
modified because of debugging information.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>LLVM optimizations should interact in <a href="#debugopt">well-defined and
|
|
|
|
|
easily described ways</a> with the debugging information.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Because LLVM is designed to support arbitrary programming languages,
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM-to-LLVM tools should not need to know anything about the semantics of the
|
|
|
|
|
source-level-language.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Source-level languages are often <b>widely</b> different from one another.
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM should not put any restrictions of the flavor of the source-language, and
|
|
|
|
|
the debugging information should work with any language.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>With code generator support, it should be possible to use an LLVM compiler
|
2004-01-06 06:31:32 +01:00
|
|
|
to compile a program to native machine code and standard debugging formats.
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
This allows compatibility with traditional machine-code level debuggers, like
|
|
|
|
|
GDB or DBX.</li>

<p>The approach used by the LLVM implementation is to use a small set of <a
|
2004-01-06 06:31:32 +01:00
|
|
|
href="#format_common_intrinsics">intrinsic functions</a> to define a mapping
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
between LLVM program objects and the source-level objects. The description of
|
|
|
|
|
the source-level program is maintained in LLVM global variables in an <a
|
2004-01-06 06:31:32 +01:00
|
|
|
href="#ccxx_frontend">implementation-defined format</a> (the C/C++ front-end
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
currently uses working draft 7 of the <a

2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00

|
<p>When a program is being debugged, a debugger interacts with the user and
|
|
|
|
|
turns the stored debug information into source-language specific information.
|
2006-03-15 20:10:52 +01:00
|
|
|
As such, a debugger must be aware of the source-language, and is thus tied to
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
a specific language of family of languages.</p>

<p>The role of debug information is to provide meta information normally

<p>An extremely high priority of LLVM debugging information is to make it
|
|
|
|
|
interact well with optimizations and analysis. In particular, the LLVM debug
|
|
|
|
|
information provides the following guarantees:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>LLVM debug information <b>always provides information to accurately read the
|
|
|
|
|
source-level state of the program</b>, regardless of which LLVM optimizations
|
|
|
|
|
have been run, and without any modification to the optimizations themselves.
|
|
|
|
|
However, some optimizations may impact the ability to modify the current state
|
|
|
|
|
of the program with a debugger, such as setting program variables, or calling
|
|
|
|
|
function that have been deleted.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>LLVM optimizations gracefully interact with debugging information. If they
|
|
|
|
|
are not aware of debug information, they are automatically disabled as necessary
|
|
|
|
|
in the cases that would invalidate the debug info. This retains the LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
features making it easy to write new transformations.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>As desired, LLVM optimizations can be upgraded to be aware of the LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
debugging information, allowing them to update the debugging information as they
|
|
|
|
|
perform aggressive optimizations. This means that, with effort, the LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
optimizers could optimize debug code just as well as non-debug code.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>LLVM debug information does not prevent many important optimizations from
|
|
|
|
|
happening (for example inlining, basic block reordering/merging/cleanup, tail
|
|
|
|
|
duplication, etc), further reducing the amount of the compiler that eventually
|
|
|
|
|
is "aware" of debugging information.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>LLVM debug information is automatically optimized along with the rest of the
|
|
|
|
|
program, using existing facilities. For example, duplicate information is
|
|
|
|
|
automatically merged by the linker, and unused information is automatically
|
|
|
|
|
removed.</li>

2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>Basically, the debug information allows you to compile a program with
|
|
|
|
|
"<tt>-O0 -g</tt>" and get full debug information, allowing you to arbitrarily
|
2006-03-15 20:10:52 +01:00
|
|
|
modify the program as it executes from a debugger. Compiling a program with
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
"<tt>-O3 -g</tt>" gives you full debug information that is always available and
|
|
|
|
|
accurate for reading (e.g., you get accurate stack traces despite tail call
|
|
|
|
|
elimination and inlining), but you might lose the ability to modify the program
|
|
|
|
|
and call functions where were optimized out of the program, or inlined away
|
|
|
|
|
completely.</p>

<p>LLVM debugging information has been carefully designed to make it possible
|
|
|
|
|
for the optimizer to optimize the program and debugging information without
|
|
|
|
|
necessarily having to know anything about debugging information. In particular,
|
|
|
|
|
the global constant merging pass automatically eliminates duplicated debugging
|
|
|
|
|
information (often caused by header files), the global dead code elimination
|
|
|
|
|
pass automatically deletes debugging information for a function if it decides to
|
|
|
|
|
delete the function, and the linker eliminates debug information when it merges
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>linkonce</tt> functions.</p>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
<p>To do this, most of the debugging information (descriptors for types,
|
|
|
|
|
variables, functions, source files, etc) is inserted by the language front-end
|
|
|
|
|
in the form of LLVM global variables. These LLVM global variables are no
|
|
|
|
|
different from any other global variables, except that they have a web of LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
intrinsic functions that point to them. If the last references to a particular
|
|
|
|
|
piece of debugging information are deleted (for example, by the
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>-globaldce</tt> pass), the extraneous debug information will automatically
|
|
|

<p>Debug information is designed to be agnostic about the target debugger and
|
|
|
|
|
debugging information representation (e.g. DWARF/Stabs/etc). It uses a generic
|
|
|
|
|
machine debug information pass to decode the information that represents
|
|
|
|
|
variables, types, functions, namespaces, etc: this allows for arbitrary
|
|
|
|
|
source-language semantics and type-systems to be used, as long as there is a
|
|
|
|
|
module written for the target debugger to interpret the information. In
|
|
|
|
|
addition, debug global variables are declared in the <tt>"llvm.metadata"</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
section. All values declared in this section are stripped away after target
|
|
|
|
|
debug information is constructed and before the program object is emitted.</p>

<p>To provide basic functionality, the LLVM debugger does have to make some
|
|
|
|
|
assumptions about the source-level language being debugged, though it keeps
|
|
|
|
|
these to a minimum. The only common features that the LLVM debugger assumes
|
|
|
|
|
exist are <a href="#format_compile_units">source files</a>, and <a
|
|
|
|
|
href="#format_global_variables">program objects</a>. These abstract objects are
|
2006-03-15 20:10:52 +01:00
|
|
|
used by a debugger to form stack traces, show information about local
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
variables, etc.</p>

<p>In consideration of the complexity and volume of debug information, LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
provides a specification for well formed debug global variables. The constant
|
|
|
|
|
value of each of these globals is one of a limited set of structures, known as
|
|
|
|
|
debug descriptors.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Consumers of LLVM debug information expect the descriptors for program
|
|
|
|
|
objects to start in a canonical format, but the descriptors can include
|
2006-03-23 18:54:33 +01:00
|
|
|
additional information appended at the end that is source-language specific. All
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM debugging information is versioned, allowing backwards compatibility in the
|
|
|
|
|
case that the core structures need to change in some way. Also, all debugging
|
|
|
|
|
information objects start with a tag to indicate what type of object it is. The
|
|
|
|
|
source-language is allowed to define its own objects, by using unreserved tag
|
|
|
|
|
numbers. We recommend using with tags in the range 0x1000 thru 0x2000 (there is
|
|
|
|
|
a defined enum DW_TAG_user_base = 0x1000.)</p>

<p>The fields of debug descriptors used internally by LLVM (MachineDebugInfo)
|

are restricted to only the simple data types <tt>int</tt>, <tt>uint</tt>,
|
|
|
|
|
<tt>bool</tt>, <tt>float</tt>, <tt>double</tt>, <tt>sbyte*</tt> and <tt> { }*
|
|
|
|
|
</tt>. References to arbitrary values are handled using a <tt> { }* </tt> and a
|
|
|
|
|
cast to <tt> { }* </tt> expression; typically references to other field
|

<p>One important aspect of the LLVM debug representation is that it allows the
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM debugger to efficiently index all of the global objects without having the
|
|
|
|
|
scan the program. To do this, all of the global objects use "anchor"
|
|
|
|
|
descriptors with designated names. All of the global objects of a particular
|
|
|
|
|
type (e.g., compile units) contain a pointer to the anchor. This pointer allows
|
2006-03-15 20:10:52 +01:00
|
|
|
a debugger to use def-use chains to find all global objects of that type.</p>

2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00

<p>The following names are recognized as anchors by LLVM:</p>

2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
<p>Using anchors in this way (where the compile unit descriptor points to the
|
|
|
|
|
anchors, as opposed to having a list of compile unit descriptors) allows for the
|
|
|
|
|
standard dead global elimination and merging passes to automatically remove
|
|
|
|
|
unused debugging information. If the globals were kept track of through lists,
|
|
|
|
|
there would always be an object pointing to the descriptors, thus would never be
|
|
|
|
|
deleted.</p>

<p>These descriptors define primitive types used in the code. Example int, bool
|
|
|
|
|
and float. The context provides the scope of the type, which is usually the top
|
|
|
|
|
level. Since basic types are not usually user defined the compile unit and line
|
|
|
|
|
number can be left as NULL and 0. The size, alignment and offset are expressed
|
|
|
|
|
in bits and can be 64 bit values. The alignment is used to round the offset
|
|
|
|
|
when embedded in a <a href="#format_composite_type">composite type</a>
|
|
|
|
|
(example to keep float doubles on 64 bit boundaries.) The offset is the bit
|
|
|
|
|
offset if embedded in a <a href="#format_composite_type">composite
|
|
|
|
|
type</a>.</p>

function at every point in the program where a debugger should be able to
|
|
|
|
|
inspect the program (these correspond to places a debugger stops when you
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
"<tt>step</tt>" through it). The front-end can choose to place these as
|
|
|
|
|
fine-grained as it would like (for example, before every subexpression
|
|
|
|
|
evaluated), but it is recommended to only put them after every source statement
|
|
|
|
|
that includes executable code.</p>

2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00

transformations, these calls simply look like calls to an external function,
|
|
|
|
|
which they must assume to do anything (including reading or writing to any part
|
|
|
|
|
of reachable memory). On the other hand, it does not impact many optimizations,
|
|
|
|
|
such as code motion of non-trapping instructions, nor does it impact
|
2004-01-06 06:31:32 +01:00

optimization of subexpressions, code duplication transformations, or basic-block

<p>In many languages, the local variables in functions can have their lifetime
|
|
|
|
|
or scope limited to a subset of a function. In the C family of languages, for
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
example, variables are only live (readable and writable) within the source block
|
|
|
|
|
that they are defined in. In functional languages, values are only readable
|
|
|
|
|
after they have been defined. Though this is a very obvious concept, it is also
|
|
|
|
|
non-trivial to model in LLVM, because it has no notion of scoping in this sense,
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
and does not want to be tied to a language's scoping rules.</p>

|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>In order to handle this, the LLVM debug format uses the notion of "regions"
|
|
|
|
|
of a function, delineated by calls to intrinsic functions. These intrinsic
|
|
|
|
|
functions define new regions of the program and indicate when the region
|
|
|
|
|
lifetime expires. Consider the following C fragment, for example:</p>

<p>This example illustrates a few important details about the LLVM debugging
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
information. In particular, it shows how the various intrinsics are applied
|
|
|
|
|
together to allow a debugger to analyze the relationship between statements,
|
|
|
|
|
variable definitions, and the code used to implement the function.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The first intrinsic <tt>%<a
|
|
|
|
|
href="#format_common_func_start">llvm.dbg.func.start</a></tt> provides
|
|
|
|
|
a link with the <a href="#format_subprograms">subprogram descriptor</a>
|
|
|
|
|
containing the details of this function. This call also defines the beginning
|
|
|
|
|
of the function region, bounded by the <tt>%<a
|
|
|
|
|
href="#format_common_region_end">llvm.region.end</a></tt> at the end of
|
|
|
|
|
the function. This region is used to bracket the lifetime of variables declared
|
|
|
|
|
within. For a function, this outer region defines a new stack frame whose
|
|
|
|
|
lifetime ends when the region is ended.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>It is possible to define inner regions for short term variables by using the
|
|
|
|
|
%<a href="#format_common_stoppoint"><tt>llvm.region.start</tt></a> and <a
|
|
|
|
|
href="#format_common_region_end"><tt>%llvm.region.end</tt></a> to bound a
|
|
|
|
|
region. The inner region in this example would be for the block containing the
|
|
|
|
|
declaration of Z.</p>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>Using regions to represent the boundaries of source-level functions allow
|
|
|
|
|
LLVM interprocedural optimizations to arbitrarily modify LLVM functions without
|
2004-01-06 06:31:32 +01:00
|
|
|
having to worry about breaking mapping information between the LLVM code and the
|
|
|
|
|
and source-level program. In particular, the inliner requires no modification
|
|
|
|
|
to support inlining with debugging information: there is no explicit correlation
|
|
|
|
|
drawn between LLVM functions and their source-level counterparts (note however,
|
|
|
|
|
that if the inliner inlines all instances of a non-strong-linkage function into
|
|
|
|
|
its caller that it will not be possible for the user to manually invoke the
|
2006-03-15 20:10:52 +01:00
|
|
|
inlined function from a debugger).</p>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>Once the function has been defined, the <a
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
href="#format_common_stoppoint"><tt>stopping point</tt></a> corresponding to
|
|
|
|
|
line #2 (column #2) of the function is encountered. At this point in the
|
|
|
|
|
function, <b>no</b> local variables are live. As lines 2 and 3 of the example
|
|
|
|
|
are executed, their variable definitions are introduced into the program using
|
|
|
|
|
%<a href="#format_common_declare"><tt>llvm.dbg.declare</tt></a>, without the
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
need to specify a new region. These variables do not require new regions to be
|
|
|
|
|
introduced because they go out of scope at the same point in the program: line
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
9.</p>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>In contrast, the <tt>Z</tt> variable goes out of scope at a different time,
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
on line 7. For this reason, it is defined within the inner region, which kills
|
|
|
|
|
the availability of <tt>Z</tt> before the code for line 8 is executed. In this
|
|
|
|
|
way, regions can support arbitrary source-language scoping rules, as long as
|
|
|
|
|
they can only be nested (ie, one scope cannot partially overlap with a part of
|
|
|
|
|
another scope).</p>
|
2004-01-05 06:06:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2004-05-12 21:21:57 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>It is worth noting that this scoping mechanism is used to control scoping of
|
|
|
|
|
all declarations, not just variable declarations. For example, the scope of a
|
2006-03-14 19:08:46 +01:00
|
|
|
C++ using declaration is controlled with this couldchange how name lookup is
|
|
|
|
|
performed.</p>

|
href="http://www.eagercon.com/dwarf/dwarf3std.htm">Dwarf 3.0</a> in terms of

<p>This section describes the forms used to represent C and C++ programs. Other

|
|
|
|
representing programs in the same way that Dwarf 3 does), or they could choose
|
|
|
|
|
to provide completely different forms if they don't fit into the Dwarf model.
|
|
|
|
|
As support for debugging information gets added to the various LLVM
|
|
|
|
|
source-language front-ends, the information used should be documented here.</p>
