While debugging code that uses SafeStack, we've noticed that LLVM
produces an invalid DWARF. Concretely, in the following example:
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
std::string value = "";
printf("%s\n", value.c_str());
return 0;
}
DWARF would describe the value variable as being located at:
DW_OP_breg14 R14+0, DW_OP_deref, DW_OP_constu 0x20, DW_OP_minus
The assembly to get this variable is:
leaq -32(%r14), %rbx
The order of operations in the DWARF symbols is incorrect in this case.
Specifically, the deref is incorrect; this appears to be incorrectly
re-inserted in repalceOneDbgValueForAlloca.
With this change which inserts the deref after the offset instead of
before it, LLVM produces correct DWARF:
DW_OP_breg14 R14-32
