Share some infomation on debuging bpf debuginfo problem.
An error "error: failed to compute relocation: Unknown" can be
found if we use llvm-dwarfdump tools to dump the object file,
debuging on that error, it seems there's no support for type
'BPF' in llvm/include/llvm/Support/MachO.h, and llvm-dwarfdump
fails to find the corresponding VisitElf method. Then I have a
rough test which forces RelocVisitor to use 'visitELF_386_32',
and got the correct DW_AT_name in the output:
0x00000043: DW_TAG_formal_parameter [3]
DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_strp] ( .debug_str[0x000000dc] = "myvar_a")
DW_AT_decl_file [DW_FORM_data1] ("testllvm/main.c")
DW_AT_decl_line [DW_FORM_data1] (3)
DW_AT_type [DW_FORM_ref4] (cu + 0x0065 => {0x00000065})
I noticed that for 64-bit elf format, the reloc sections have
'Addend' in the entry, but there's no 'Addend' info in bpf elf
file(64bit). I think there must be something wrong in the process
of .s -> .o, which related to 64bit/32bit. Anyway, we can parse out the
AT_name now, DW_AT_LOCATION still missed and need your help.
Thank you.
