[llvm-dev] IR to binary address mapping

[Muhui Jiang via llvm-dev]

Hi

If I understand right. You mean LLVM ever has the "DebugIR" pass that can
be used to map from textual IR to binary code but it is removed later.
Right? If so , I would try to search the related information and thank you
very much
