There's a couple of variations (-compress-debug-sections=zlib or zlib-gnu) the ".zdebug_foo" is zlib-gnu style, but a more modern variant (zlib) uses a section attribute SHF_COMPRESSED instead of the name mangling.

At least for now, zlib-gnu style is used at Google - I don't actually know what it'd cost to switch to the more modern zlib (using SHF_COMPRESSED) style. No doubt there are a variety of tools that may not have been updated/improved to support the new format - hard to say. https://reviews.llvm.org/D45628 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
