<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Is there really a requirement that .debug_aranges must cover every debug section in the entire program? I couldn't find this in the DWARF spec. Seems like LLDB should try .debug_aranges first then fallback gracefully. The way it is currently, if you link in any object file that happens to have a .debug_aranges section, then you can't debug the rest of the program with LLDB. The test below demonstrates the problem. Note that gcc generates a .debug_aranges section and clang does not.<br>

It sounds like the .debug_aranges section the compiler is generating is not correct, and that is what is messing everything up. If we have a .debug_aranges section, we use it. If it is missing, then we auto generate it by pulling in all DWARF and calculating it by hand. This is bad because it consumes time and memory to pull in all DWARF just to generate the address ranges.<br>

File a bug against clang with your repro steps.<br>

> You could try something like setting a breakpoint in the CommandObjectBreakpointSet::DoExecute() function, and stepping through from there. I think that’s likely to get you to the beginning of the DWARF processing if setting a breakpoint is the first thing you do after creating the target (or specifying it on the command line). It’s a long and winding road from there to the meaty bits, but without some hints from the log output it’s hard to say where a wrong turn might have been taken.<br>
