......@@ -5,13 +5,14 @@ Since the 7.10 release GHC can emit a debugging information to help debugging
tools understand the code that GHC produces. This debugging information is
useable by most UNIX debugging tools.
.. warning::
.. ghc-flag:: -g, -g<n>
This feature is still in technology preview state. There are known cases
where requesting a stack-trace can cause your program to segmentation fault
(e.g. :ghc-ticket:`11353`, :ghc-ticket:`11338`, and :ghc-ticket:`11337`).
Consequently, we can not recommend that stack trace support be used in
production code.
:since: 7.10, numeric levels since 8.0
Emit debug information in object code. Currently only DWARF debug
information is supported on x86-64 and i386. Currently debug levels 0
through 3 are accepted, with 0 disabling debug information production.
Levels 1 through 3 are functionally equivalent.
