From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Tom Tromey Subject: failure with -gdwarf-4 Date: Fri, 01 Jul 2011 12:40:04 -0600 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Return-path: Sender: dwarves-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org To: dwarves-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org List-Id: dwarves@vger.kernel.org pahole doesn't understand the new DWARF 4 .debug_types section. I'm using the F15 GCC, but really any recent-enough GCC will do. I compile this: struct s { int x; int y : 5; int z; }; struct s i; int main() { } Like so: gcc -gdwarf-4 -g -o d d.c Running pahole gives an error: $ pahole --class_name=s ./d tag__recode_dwarf_type: couldn't find 0x1d type for 0x51 (variable)! It would be nice to have support for this feature in dwarves, as .debug_types can greatly reduce the size of the debuginfo in the final executable.
