Bug ID: 97599 Summary: [8/9/10/11 Regression] missing unspecified_parameters DIE in DWARF for functions with variable arguments Product: gcc Version: 11.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: debug Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org CC: aldyh at gcc dot gnu.org, woodard at redhat dot com Depends on: 71855 Target Milestone: --- Target: x86-64-Linux +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #71855 +++ Since PR71855, we emit bad debug info e.g. for #include <stdarg.h> static __attribute__((noinline)) int foo (int unused, int args, ...) { va_list ap; int ret = 0; va_start (ap, args); if (args) ret = va_arg (ap, int); va_end (ap); return ret; } int bar (int x) { return foo (0, 0) + foo (0, 1, 1) + foo (0, 1, 3) + foo (0, 0) + foo (0, 0, 4); } Also, with LTO: #include <stdarg.h> void foo (int args, ...) { va_list ap; va_start (ap, args); va_end (ap); } gcc -shared -g -fpic -flto test.c As written in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1891787 , it seems it isn't enough to rely on the DW_TAG_unspecified_parameters DIE being present among the abstract origin DIE of the DW_TAG_subprogram's children; the debug info consumer can't know if the clone of that original function is really still variadic, or if e.g. the variadic-ness has been removed. For the non-LTO case, it is I think fairly easy to do, subr_die != old_die should be true if it is a fresh new DIE, but I'm afraid for in_lto_p we don't really know easily if it is a fresh new DIE or not. As we have nothing to lookup in the hash tables to find out cheaply if it is there or not already, the following is a painful way of doing that.
