At the last LLVM dev meeting we had a debug info for optimized code BoF session. In that session I presented some graphs that showed how the quality of the debug info produced by LLVM changed over the last couple of years. This is a cleaned up version of the patch I used to collect the this data. It is implemented as an extension of llvm-dwarfdump, adding a new --statistics option. The intended use-case is to automatically run this on the debug info produced by, e.g., our bots, to identify eyebrow-raising changes or regressions introduced by new transformations that we could act on. In the current form, two kinds of data are being collected: - The number of variables that have a debug location versus the number of variables in total (this takes into account inlined instances of the same function, so if a variable is completely missing form only one instance it will be found). - The PC range covered by variable location descriptions versus the PC range of all variables' containing lexical scopes. The output format is versioned and extensible, so I'm looking forward to both bug fixes and ideas for other data that would be interesting to track.

LLVM Documentation ================== LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it is mostly meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation system to create HTML pages which are hosted on <http://llvm.org/docs/> and updated after every commit. Manpage output is also supported, see below. If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do: cd <build-dir> cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML=true <src-dir> make -j3 docs-llvm-html $BROWSER <build-dir>/docs//html/index.html The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is `docs/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//html/Foo.html` <-> `http://llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`. If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read `SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing documentation very fast and includes examples of the most important reStructuredText markup syntax. Manpage Output =============== Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the directory `<build-dir>/docs/man/`. cd <build-dir> cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN=true <src-dir> make -j3 docs-llvm-man man -l >build-dir>/docs/man/FileCheck.1 The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is `docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/docs//man/Foo.1`. These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also viewable online (as noted above) at e.g. `http://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`. Checking links ============== The reachability of external links in the documentation can be checked by running: cd docs/ make -f Makefile.sphinx linkcheck Doxygen page Output ============== Install doxygen <http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html> and dot2tex <https://dot2tex.readthedocs.io/en/latest>. cd <build-dir> cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_DOXYGEN=On <llvm-top-src-dir> make doxygen-llvm # for LLVM docs make doxygen-clang # for clang docs It will generate html in <build-dir>/docs/doxygen/html # for LLVM docs <build-dir>/tools/clang/docs/doxygen/html # for clang docs
