wasmtime / issue #9486 Large `.rela` sections for debug s... · git-wasmtime

Reproduction:

> wasmtime compile -D debug-info -O opt-level=0 wasm-with-di.wasm
> llvm-objdump wasm-with-di.cwasm

Expected result: the output does not contain an excessive number of relocations.

Actual result: there are lots of them:

  8 .debug_abbrev      000704e1 0000000000000000 DEBUG
  9 .debug_str         00164a48 0000000000000000 DEBUG

 19 .rela.debug_frame  000abe40 0000000000000000

Looking at .debug_loc in particular, we can see the following for the very first location list:

> llvm-objdump -j .rela.debug_loc -x wasm-with-di.cwasm > rel.txt

RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.debug_loc]:

0000000000000064 R_X86_64_64              wasm[0]::function[41]::_start+0x88

The debug info and code are part of the same 'object file' - much of this should be unnecessary.
