GsymUtil, like DwarfDump --verify, spews a *lot* of data necessary to
understand/diagnose issues with DWARF data. The trouble is that the kind
of information necessary to make the messages useful also makes them
nearly impossible to easily categorize. I put together a similar output
categorizer (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/79648) that will
emit a summary of issues identified at the bottom of the (very verbose)
output, enabling easier tracking of issues as they arise or are
addressed.
There's a single output change, where a message "warning: Unable to
retrieve DWO .debug_info section for some object files. (Remove the
--quiet flag for full output)" was being dumped the first time it was
encountered (in what looks like an attempt to make something easily
grep-able), but rather than keep the output in the same order, that
message is now a 'category' so gets emitted at the end of the output.
The test 'tools/llvm-gsymutil/X86/elf-dwo.yaml' was changed to reflect
this difference.
