DWARF v5 is the latest standard of the DWARF debug info format. GCC 11
will change the implicit default DWARF version, if left unspecified, to
DWARF v5.
Allow users of Clang and older versions of GCC that have not changed the
implicit default DWARF version to DWARF v5 to opt in. This can help
testing consumers of DWARF debug info in preparation of v5 becoming more
widespread, as well as result in significant binary size savings of the
pre-stripped vmlinux image.
DWARF5 wins significantly in terms of size when mixed with compression
(CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED).
363M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5.compressed
434M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4.compressed
439M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2.compressed
457M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf5
536M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf4
548M vmlinux.clang12.dwarf2
515M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5.compressed
599M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4.compressed
624M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2.compressed
630M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf5
765M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf4
809M vmlinux.gcc10.2.dwarf2
Though the quality of debug info is harder to quantify; size is not a
proxy for quality.
Jakub notes:
One thing is GCC DWARF-5 support, that is whether the compiler will
support -gdwarf-5 flag, and that support should be there from GCC 7
onwards.
All [GCC] 5.1 - 6.x did was start accepting -gdwarf-5 as experimental
option that enabled some small DWARF subset (initially only a few
DW_LANG_* codes newly added to DWARF5 drafts). Only GCC 7 (released
after DWARF 5 has been finalized) started emitting DWARF5 section
headers and got most of the DWARF5 changes in...
Another separate thing is whether the assembler does support
the -gdwarf-5 option (i.e. if you can compile assembler files
with -Wa,-gdwarf-5) ... That option is about whether the assembler
will emit DWARF5 or DWARF2 .debug_line. It is fine to compile C sources
with -gdwarf-5 and use DWARF2 .debug_line for assembler files if as
doesn't support it.
Version check GCC so that we don't need to worry about the difference in
command line args between GNU readelf and llvm-readelf/llvm-dwarfdump to
validate the DWARF Version in the assembler feature detection script.
Most issues with clang produced assembler were fixed in binutils 2.35.1,
but 2.35.2 fixed issues related to requiring the flag -Wa,-gdwarf-5
explicitly. The added shell script test checks for the latter, and is
only required when using clang without its integrated assembler, though
we use for clang regardless as we do not yet have a way to query the
assembler from Kconfig.
Disabled for now if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is set; pahole doesn't yet
recognize the new additions to the DWARF debug info.
This only modifies the DWARF version emitted by the compiler, not the
assembler.
The DWARF version of a binary can be validated with:
$ llvm-dwarfdump <object file> | head -n 4 | grep version
or
$ readelf --debug-dump=info <object file> 2>/dev/null | grep Version
Parts of the tree don't reuse DEBUG_CFLAGS as they should; such cleanup
is left as a follow up.
