Are you intending to add platform-specific defaulting within DwarfDebug? If not, then this is a simple on/off switch that defaults to off.

This is spelled incorrectly (I expect you want DW_FORM_strp), and only verifies that the form does not appear after the last positive matching string.

I would be more inclined to run the test twice, once with Enable and once with Disable, with checks along the lines of

ENABLE-NOT: DW_FORM_str{{(p|x)}}
ENABLE: DW_FORM_string
ENABLE-NOT: DW_FORM_str{{(p|x)}}

DISABLE-NOT: DW_FORM_string
DISABLE: DW_FORM_str{{p|x)}}
DISABLE-NOT: DW_FORM_string

That makes the test specific to the behavior of the option, and the forms it produces, omitting irrelevant concerns about tags and attributes.

Yes, this is what Eric Christofer suggested to do as the first step. I'll enable it for NVPTX target

  1. I don't care about some particular form here, I'm just checking that there are no any strings at all, in any form.
  2. There are a lot of tests already where this new option is disabled by default and they have checks for DW_form_strp and other forms.

  1. Actually you want to specifically verify that you have at least one string, that it uses DW_FORM_string, and that no strings use any of the indirect forms.
  2. Fair. In that case, just do:
CHECK-NOT: DW_FORM_str{{(p|x)}}
CHECK: DW_FORM_string
CHECK-NOT: DW_FORM_str{{(p|x)}}

Improved test checks

Actually I meant the above 3 CHECK lines were all you needed, for the entire test. Sorry for not making that clear.

But these new checks are still good?

They are overkill. The 3 lines from my previous comment are all you need.

Instead of all the elaborate checks, you could use llvm-dwarfdump -debug-str (dump just the .debug_str section) and then use CHECK-NOT: " to prove it's empty.

You can avoid generating the temp file here. Instead of > %t you do -o - and then pipe it to llvm-dwarfdump with an input file of -.

Instead of all the elaborate checks, you could use llvm-dwarfdump -debug-str (dump just the .debug_str section) and then use CHECK-NOT: " to prove it's empty.

Actually never mind. Losing all the debug info would also pass that check, so my previous 3-line recommendation stands.

Fixed test checks.

Fix the temp-file thing in the test and LGTM.

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Feb 16 2018, 1:40 PM

One inline typo, otherwise fix up what Paul asked for and LGTM.

What's the motivation for this change? Do you have a platform that doesn't support debug_string?

Yep. Exactly. Apparently nvptx doesn't.
