Since a single line may be spread 15 // out over several basic blocks, discriminators add more precise location 16 // for the samples. 17 // 18 // For example, 19 // 20 // 1 #define ASSERT(P) 21 // 2 if (!(P)) 22 // 3 abort() 23 // ... 24 // 100 while (true) { 25 // 101 ASSERT (sum < 0); 26 // 102 ... 27 // 130 } 28 // 29 // when converted to IR, this snippet looks something like: 30 // 31 // while.body: ; preds = %entry, %if.end 32 // %0 = load i32* %sum, align 4, !dbg !15 33 // %cmp = icmp slt i32 %0, 0, !dbg !15 34 // br i1 %cmp, label %if.end, label %if.then, !dbg !15 35 // 36 // if.then: ; preds = %while.body 37 // call void @abort(), !dbg !15 38 // br label %if.end, !dbg !15 39 // 40 // Notice that all the instructions in blocks 'while.body' and 'if.then' 41 // have exactly the same debug information.
