Compilation generates DWARF at several stages, and often the later DWARF representations more accurately represent optimizations that have occurred during compilation. In particular, parameter representations can be spotted by their abstract origin references to the original parameter, but they often have more accurate location information. In most cases, the parameter locations will match calling conventions, and be registers for the first 6 parameters on x86_64, first 8 on ARM64 etc. If the parameter is not a register when it should be however, it is likely passed via the stack or the compiler has used a constant representation instead. The latter can often be spotted by checking for a DW_AT_const_value attribute, as noted by Eduard. In addition, absence of a location tag (either across the abstract origin reference and the original parameter, or in the standalone parameter description) is evidence of an optimized-out parameter. Presence of a location tag is stored in the parameter description and shared between abstract tags and their original referents. This change adds a field to parameters and their associated ftype to note if a parameter has been optimized out. Having this information allows us to skip such functions, as their presence in CUs makes BTF encoding impossible. Committer notes: Changed the NR_REGISTER_PARAMS definition from a if/elif/endif for the native architecture into a function that uses the ELF header e_machine to find the target architecture, to allow for cross builds. Also avoided looking at location expression in parameter__new() when the param_idx argument is -1, as is the case when creating 'struct parameter' instances for DW_TAG_subroutine_type, since we don't have such info, only for the 'struct parameter' instances created from DW_TAG_subprogram.
