[llvm-dev] [DebugInfo] RFC: Introduce LLVM DI Checker utility

[Adrian Prantl via llvm-dev]

That's a neat idea!

How would a tool like this distinguish between situations where debug locations are expected to be dropped or merged, such as the ones outlined in https://reviews.llvm.org/D81198? Is it generating false positives?

You mention that "An alternative to this is the debugify utility, but the difference is that the LLVM DI Checker deals with real debug info, rather than with the synthetic ones". How is that an advantage? Are you seeing too many false positives with the debugify-generated debug locations?
