Dear list,

Relocation section '.rela.debug_info' at offset 0x2d0 contains 6 entries:

Relocation section '.rela.debug_aranges' at offset 0x360 contains 1 entries:

I can't find any code in cc1 or as that generate R_X86_64_DTPOFF32 in
.rela.debug_info section. Did I miss something?

.rela.X is a relocation section generated by the assembler. GCC emits debug information using assembler pseudos such as .word etc. Those will name relocations. The syntax for relocations is target-specific. The above will be some_symbol@dtpoff or something.
