[LLVMdev] LLVM Metadata to Dwarf tags

[Aaron Kobayashi]

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a project where I need to add the addresses's of specific
instructions to the DWARF output.

I've been digging around for the last week or so trying to figure out
exactly what I need to do, but this is my first list posting.

I came across this posting:
http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2010-September/034464.html
which seems to be doing almost exactly what I want to do, however it was
created with LLVM 2.7 in mind.  Since then, from what I can tell, the LLVM
MC project has been created and blown away the usefulness of the
descriptions contained in that thread.
(Example: AsmPrinter::processDebugLoc() no longer exists).  Does anyone
have any pointers on how to update this for LLVM/clang 3.0?

To be more specific, I've added a special stack guard intrinsic similar to
StackProtector.cpp which uses a per function random immediate instead
of ___stack_chk_guard.  What I am trying to accomplish is to get the offset
into the final x86 object file of each one of these immediate values.

An example of the output in Assembly looks like:
movq $653406579, -8(%rbp)    ## imm = 0x26F23173

In reality, I'd settle for a simple way to get the offset into the Obj file
of the movq instruction that I could putput to a separate file, but It'd be
better if I could get it into the DWARF tags.

Does anyone have any familiarity with this to give me some pointers?

Thanks,
AK
