Summary

Adding more debugging logic to the sample profile loader inliner. Also
enchancing basic block name printing for blocks that don't come with a
name. Such blocks could come from prelink.

This is useful, I wondering if this can be used to improve print block names in general, in addition to sample loader.

llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/SampleProfile.cpp
889–890

Inside pgo::promoteIndirectCall, there is a remark covering this info already under pgo-icall-prom.

1178

This kind of message looks like the one that should be covered by remarks, and it's covered here. Is the remarks not enough? Looking at other place (Inliner/InlineCost, etc), we don't duplicate those messages between remarks and LLVM_DEBUG.

Same for the ones below.

This seems a bit random/lack of structure. There's nothing marking the debugging message's start/end for a functions.

If we want, we can organize the messages so we know which function/inliner each message is about.

Also a general comment, adding all debug prints used when debugging smaller programs would make the debugging message hard to use for large programs. So I'd be a bit cautious about adding those.

Unless the messages are structured, i.e there's a paired message saying which function we're currently processing, it'd be good to point out the function/inliner too.

Good point. We can make this a debug method of BasicBlock and MachineBasicBlock so that other passes can use it too.

Yeah, but then you would need turn on two debug switches which may cause the debug log even longer. I've been using this to identify whether a missing inlining is due to missing ICP.

1178

I found that including this in the debug log is useful so that I could just focus on the debug log. Otherwise I had to cross look up and match the trace between debug log and remarks. LLVM_DEBUG is also used in inliner.cpp/inlineAdvisor.cpp (e.g, llvm::shouldInline) in addition to the remarks..

There is a printing in the start SampleProfileLoader::runOnFunction I've been relying on to track the processing of a function. An example dump is like:
