The standard says that: ... The label entry has a DW_AT_low_pc attribute whose value is the address of the first executable instruction for the location identified by the label in the source program. ... But I interpret the missing DW_AT_low_pc attribute as: there is a label in the source, but the corresponding code has been optimized out. > or is the debug info telling us that the > address of the label is the same as the line number's address? > > How about looking up the line number address instead of throwing > an error? > Well, in this particular case, that wouldn't help. With L1 at line 3: ... $ cat -n test.c 1 int main (void) { 2 return 0; 3 L1: 4 (void)0; 5 } 6 ... there's no corresponding address: ... $ readelf -wL a.out CU: test.c: File name Line number Starting address View Stmt test.c 1 0x400497 x test.c 2 0x40049b x test.c 5 0x4004a0 x test.c - 0x4004a2 ... My suspicion is that this won't be useful in general. Thanks, - Tom
