             Bug #: 12922
           Summary: no debugging symbols found in gdb when assembly file
                    is compiled to form the executable with -g option.
           Product: clang
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P

I have an assembly file containing thumb2-it(thumb2 IF THEN) instructions which
i need to check for single step in gdb. The problem being faced is that when i
am compiling this assembly .S file using clang with -g option and running the
generated executable on gdb, It says no debugging symbols found.

When I compiled the same assembly file using gcc(using the -g compile option),
the executable created contained the debug information. 

When I looked into the the executables generated using the readelf -a command,
I found that the .debug_* info is absent from the clang compiled executable.

Attached the assembly file which is being used.
