Seems like GCC actually does things differently - it does produce DWARF using the signedness of the literal to dictate the signedness of the enumerator, which seems inconsistent with the comment ("This matches the DWARF produced by GCC for C enums with positive enumerators" - well it's consistent with that statement (for positive enumerators) but inconsistent with what happens if you mix sign of enumerators - then GCC uses different encodings, but Clang doesn't (regardless of the representational difference - with isSigned true or false)) Looks like LLVM, for DWARF at least, uses the signedness of the enumeration's type ( https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/2c4ca6832fa6b306ee6a7010bfb80a3f2596f824/lib/CodeGen/AsmPrinter/DwarfUnit.cpp#L1406-L1427 ). (the BTF backend seems to respect the individual signedness) So... mixed feelings? For DWARF it looks like the signed-ness representation doesn't matter/is ignored and only the signedness of the enumeration is used. GCC respects the signedness of different expressions - but I don't know that that's a good choice either, seems like it should represent the value of the enumerator proper, not of the expression used to initialize the enumerator. And also - what's the deal with the APInt encoding? It looks like something in the IR printing correctly encodes the signedness of the APInt value: ``` $ clang-tot enum.c -g -c -emit-llvm -S -o - | grep Enumerator !6 = !DIEnumerator(name: "A", value: 0) !7 = !DIEnumerator(name: "B", value: -1) ``` (this is the output without the per-enumerator signedness initialization) So how's that working & why do we carry the extra signedness in a boolean as well? Sorry, feel free to ignore all this if it's not worth the rabbit-hole. I'm generally OK with this preserving the existing behavior - but it does raise a bunch of questions for me.
