[Alexey Bataev via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

ABataev added inline comments.


================
Comment at: lib/Driver/ToolChains/Cuda.cpp:353
   CmdArgs.push_back(Args.MakeArgString(Output.getFilename()));
+  if (mustEmitDebugInfo(Args) && Args.hasArg(options::OPT_g_Flag))
+    CmdArgs.push_back("-g");

1. Ok, will look at this
2. -gdwarfN should be ignored, we should always emit DWARF2, otherwise, it will break ptxas.
