[clang][DebugInfo] Add symbol for debugger with VTable information. (#130255) The IR now includes a global variable for the debugger that holds the address of the vtable. Now every class that contains virtual functions, has a static member (marked as artificial) that identifies where that vtable is loaded in memory. The unmangled name is '_vtable$'. This new symbol will allow a debugger to easily associate classes with the physical location of their VTables using only the DWARF information. Previously, this had to be done by searching for ELF symbols with matching names; something that was time-consuming and error-prone in certain edge cases.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
