             Bug #: 12528
           Summary: DW_AT_ranges not generated when compiled with
                    -ffunction-sections
           Product: clang
           Version: 3.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: -New Bugs
        AssignedTo: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: karthikthecool at gmail.com

    Classification: Unclassified


DW_AT_ranges is not generated when compiled with -ffunction-sections. 
E.g.  In the below function -

int
f (void)
{
  return 1;
}

when we compile this code with "-gdwarf-2 -ffunction-sections -w -dA" options.
In case of gcc DW_AT_ranges is generated. This tag is not generated when
compiled with clang.
