In v5 the primary source file & dir are supposed to be explicit in the line table, so I think ignoring .debug_info ought to be okay in general.

I'm not sure if that's exactly the right way forward here though, since I suspect by this point the DWARFContext may have already done (some of) the parsing (I haven't dug into the code to confirm either way).

> There's also `getOrParseLineTable`, which takes an offset, `Context` and `DWARFDataExtractor` and gives you back the line table at that offset, which may or may not have already been parsed (it will return the cached version if it has been). You'd need to then use the length field within the line table to identify the next offset to use. Maybe a new function could sit on top of that to give you the ability to iterate over them, and only parse the ones that haven't been already? Alternatively, you could modify the `SectionParser` class to cache the parsed line tables so that it doesn't matter if you try to reparse them later.
I think you are able to iterate over line tables via the following code snippets.

```
  DWARFDataExtractor LineData(DICtx.getDWARFObj(),
                              DICtx.getDWARFObj().getLineSection(),
                              DICtx.isLittleEndian(), 0);
  DWARFDebugLine::SectionParser Parser(LineData, DICtx,
                                       DICtx.normal_units());
  while (!Parser.done()) {
    DWARFDebugLine::LineTable LT = Parser.parseNext(
      RecoverableErrorHandler,
      UnrecoverableErrorHandler);
    // Dump file names with paths.
    ...
  }
```

> Not that it likely is going to matter in any practical situation, but this should probably be `uint64_t` technically - the FileNames are set via LEB128 values (see e.g. DW_LNS_set_file) and thus technically have no upper bound in size from the file format. I won't fight too hard for this if you don't want to though.
I'm not sure if the for-loop should start from 0. The DWARFv5 spec says:

> In DWARF Version 5, the current compilation file name is explicitly present and has index 0.
