Just for the record, msvc does something very similar to this -gsplit-dwarf=single option (using a linker option /DEBUG:FASTLINK instead of this SHF_EXCLUDE approach). Some questions: - How is this handled by dwp/llvm-dwp? I guess not yet since neither supports DWARF5 atm. - How does it interact with -gdwarf-5? Should it? - There is some deeply buried information about how gdb requires .debug_gnu_pubnames in the case of split dwarf: https://reviews.llvm.org/D54497?id=173943#1299461. Is this still true for this single split case? I'm asking cause these sections are huge and I wonder if they defeat the split dwarf link time gains.
