Just read this in the LLVM weekly: DIVA: Debug Information Visual Analyser has been [released](http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-September/117478.html) by SN Systems as open source. It was first [presented](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwtpXaCk2bE) at the European LLVM Dev Meeting this year. To quote the project description "DIVA is a command line tool that processes DWARF debug information contained within ELF files and prints the semantics of that debug information. The DIVA output is designed to be understandable by software programmers without any low-level compiler or DWARF knowledge; as such, it can be used to report debug information bugs to the compiler provider." This tool could come in very handy in further improving our debug output. cheers, Johan
