<div dir="ltr">Sounds plausible.<br><br>(just to check: what's the motivation not to use the LLVM versions of these enums if they match the desired semantics?

header, include/clang/Driver/DebugInfoKind.h. This was to prevent<br>
Driver from pulling in headers from Frontend. However, this leaves<br>
the enum in kind of a weird place, I think Basic would be better (and<br>
not re-introduce the problem Benny was solving).<br>
<br>
Wondering why the tuning enum didn't cause the same problem, I found<br>
that when I created the Clang enum, I didn't make Driver use it; it's<br>
still using the LLVM version of the enum. While this is not<br>
technically wrong (you could rearrange the values and it would do no<br>
harm) it's an inconsistency within Clang.<br>
<br>
But, if I make Driver use the tuning enum from Clang's CodeGenOptions,<br>
then we'll have the same problem that prompted r259489 in the first<br>
place--Driver depending on Frontend. Rather than create Yet Another<br>
Header, it would be convenient to put the tuning enum in the same<br>
place as DebugInfoKind, as they are topically related and commonly<br>
used in the same places.<br>
<br>
I propose to do the following:<br>
<br>
Patch #1 (totally mechanical)<br>
- move DebugInfoKind.h from Driver to Basic<br>
- rename it to DebugInfoOptions.h<br>
This will take care of all the #include renaming in one go.<br>
<br>
Patch #2 (basically mechanical)<br>
- move the DebuggerKind enum from CodeGenOptions.h to DebugInfoOptions.h<br>
- fix up Driver to use this enum instead of the LLVM equivalent.<br>
<br>
Or I can do it all at once, the combined patch would still be<br>
reasonable I think.<br>
<br>
Sound okay?<br>
