[llvm-dev] CloneFunctionInto produces invalid debug info

I was just going to say: With well-formed debug info it should create a deep copy up until the DISubprogram, but no further. But because the DISubprogram linked to the Function is missing the special handling of the DISubprogram (that would prohibit cloning the DICompileUnit is side-stepped).
But then I remembered the discussion we had in http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20170306/435395.html and now I think that this might actually be legal IR.

With this in mind, the correct behavior for CloneFunction is to not remap any debug metadata (and just attach the original nodes) if it is cloning into the same Module *and* there is not DISubprogram attached to the function.

If you want the debug info to survive you should create a new DISubprogram for the .extracted_region function and reparent the debug locations of the instructions into it, or you should strip all debug info from the function and its instructions.
>> Otherwise (as in the example) CloneFunction will not properly seed the metadata value mapper because the DISubprogram is missing. This then causes a deep copy of the debug locations all the way up to the DICompileUnit to be made.

In the input IR there is a strangely formed (but correct) debug info MD that causes duplication of existing DICompileUnit during cloning, but llvm.dbg.cu is not updated. I got around by a quick cleanup pass that detects the situation and simply adds them in… Something like this:
