Oh yeah, I was imagining a flag that is only used when piping the output into FileCheck. The exact behavior is a bit tricky, because the dwarf tree is arbitrarily nested. Maybe have each leaf being output on a line of its own.

Another option is to implement some of Darwin dwarfdump’s filtering options, so we could ask llvm-dwarfdump to only emit the debug info for “foo” and, e.g., all of its parents and then match only that output, and maybe have several dwarfdump invocations per test case.
