            Bug ID: 27480
           Summary: Consider .debug_loclists optimizations
           Product: dwz
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: default
          Assignee: nobody at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: jakub at redhat dot com
                CC: dwz at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

As mentioned in
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2021-February/565965.html
GCC for non-partitioned TUs emits DW_LLE_offset_pair which will be likely a win
for small TUs, but might be too large for very large TUs - both operands are
offsets from base, so say 256KB TU would near the end of the .text section have
3 bytes for each of the operands, and for 2MB TU even 4 bytes for each operand.
Compared to one DW_LLE_base_address with 4 (or 8) byte operand and then
DW_LLE_offset_pair with likely just 1 byte operands.
Similarly, for partitioned TUs, we emit DW_LLE_start_end or DW_LLE_base_address
+ DW_LLE_offset_pair, but maybe DW_LLE_offset_pair would be smaller.
