Bug ID: 95096
Summary: Feature request: add -fsplit-dwarf
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: debug
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: i at maskray dot me
Target Milestone: ---
-gsplit-dwarf has an undesired property: it sets the debug info level to 2.
When plugged into a build system, this can enable debug info unnecessarily
(when the user does not specify -g or specifies -g0).
-fsplit-dwarf can enable .dwo, but do not enable debug info by itself.
Its reaction with -g1 may need some thoughts: whether line tables in .dwo will
be beneficial. As a start, we can add the option first, which should be simple
(for a beginner like me:/ )
