Subject: [PATCH dwarves v3 9/9] tests: Add a few clang true signature tests
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 12:10:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260320191003.1975752-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260320190917.1970524-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>
Three tests are added.
Test 1: VERBOSE=1 ./clang_parm_optimized.sh
BTF: char * foo(struct t * a, struct t * d);
DWARF: char * foo(struct t * a, int b, struct t * d);
where parameber 'b' is unused.
Test 2: VERBOSE=1 ./clang_parm_optimized_stack.sh
BTF: char * foo(struct t * a, struct t * d);
DWARF: char * foo(struct t * a, int b1, int b2, int b3, int b4, int b5, int b6, struct t * d);
where parameters 'b1' to 'b6' are unused.
Test 3: VERBOSE=1 ./clang_parm_aggregate.sh
BTF: long foo(long a__f1, struct t b, int i);
DWARF: long foo(struct t a, struct t b, int i);
where the 'struct t' definition is 'struct t { long f1; long f2; };', and
a.f2 is not used in the function.
