These changes broke DWARF-5 support. E.g. in gcc-7 and before this change
there was:

the above which would use .debug_loclists section for debug_loc_section
instead of .debug_loc for -gdwarf-5, because that is what DWARF-5 requires
and the section content is ABI incompatible. But current trunk does
> ! debug_loc_section = get_section (DEBUG_LOC_SECTION,
> ! SECTION_DEBUG, NULL);
only, so the DWARF-5 content is emitted into .debug_loc section.
Or, there used to be:
> ! if (!dwarf_split_debug_info && !DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO)
> ! debug_line_str_section = get_section (DEBUG_LINE_STR_SECTION,
> ! DEBUG_STR_SECTION_FLAGS, NULL);
which has no replacement at all, debug_line_str_hash is NULL and
so !DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO compiler ICEs on pretty much all
-gdwarf-5, because it can't emit the strings into that section.
Do you have rough time when you wrote changes to these functions (so that
I could diff init_sections_and_labels changes in between that date and
before your LTO debug changes and find out what needs to be double checked
besides those two)?
I presume we'll need some name for a LTO .debug_loclists variant.
Also, seeing:
#ifndef DEBUG_LINE_SECTION
#define DEBUG_LINE_SECTION ".debug_line"
#endif
#ifndef DEBUG_DWO_LINE_SECTION
#define DEBUG_DWO_LINE_SECTION ".debug_line.dwo"
#endif
#ifndef DEBUG_LTO_LINE_SECTION
#define DEBUG_LTO_LINE_SECTION ".gnu.debuglto_.debug_line.dwo"
#endif
that looks like a pasto, , I'd expect the last one, since it doesn't have
DWO_ in the name, to be just .gnu.debuglto_.debug_line .
