From 57d9ac67280a09f3714086b95fe4c20e34ef5706 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Biener Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2021 09:32:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Warn to not add debug hook targets This adds a boiler-plate warning to the debug hooks structure to strongly discourage people from adding new debug hook targets since we want to get rid of the current abstraction in favor of maintaining a DWARF view of debug in the middle-end and have support for alternate output formats to be generated off that DWARF representation. 2021-03-22 Richard Biener * debug.h: Add deprecation warning. --- gcc/debug.h | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/gcc/debug.h b/gcc/debug.h index 67e5267..cd265ff 100644 --- a/gcc/debug.h +++ b/gcc/debug.h @@ -21,6 +21,10 @@ /* This structure contains hooks for the debug information output functions, accessed through the global instance debug_hooks set in toplev.c according to command line options. */ +/* WARNING: Do not add new debug hook targets - DWARF will be the only + way to speak debug to the middle-end once we are able to get rid of + the remaining targets.
