How to debug tvm's Codegen codes

#1

I am reading Codegen’s code, how should I debug it, just like using gdb to debug gcc

#2

You can run python with parameters from a debugger and set a breakpoint on a codegen function that you want to debug. Let’s say that you want to stop at CodeGenLLVM::VisitStmt_(HalideIR::Internal::For const*). The mangled name is _ZN3tvm7codegen11CodeGenLLVM10VisitStmt_EPKN8HalideIR8Internal3ForE.

I use lldb, so I can do

$ lldb python3 test.py
(lldb) target create "python3"
Current executable set to 'python3' (x86_64).
(lldb) settings set -- target.run-args  "test.py"
(lldb) breakpoint set -F _ZN3tvm7codegen11CodeGenLLVM10VisitStmt_EPKN8HalideIR8Internal3ForE
Breakpoint 1: no locations (pending).
WARNING:  Unable to resolve breakpoint to any actual locations.
(lldb) run
[...]
Process 27958 stopped
* thread #1, name = 'python3', stop reason = breakpoint 1.1
