+## Source file checksums in debug info
+
+Both DWARF and CodeView (PDB) support embedding a cryptographic hash of each source file that
+contributed the associated binary.
+
+The cryptographic hash can be used by a debugger to verify that the source file matches the
+executable. If the source file does not match, the debugger can provide a warning to the user.
+
+The hash can also be used to prove that a given source file has not been modified since it was
+used to compile an executable. Because MD5 and SHA1 both have demonstrated vulnerabilities,
+using SHA256 is recommended for this application.
+
+#### DWARF 5
+DWARF version 5 supports embedding an MD5 hash to validate the source file version in use.
+DWARF 5 - Section 6.2.4.1 opcode DW_LNCT_MD5
+
+#### LLVM
+LLVM IR supports MD5, SHA1, and SHA256 source file checksums in the DIFile node.

+LLVM DIFile documentation: [https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#difile]

+#### Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler /ZH option
+The MSVC compiler supports embedding MD5, SHA1, or SHA256 hashes in the PDB using the `/ZH`
+compiler option.

+#### Clang
+Clang always embeds an MD5 checksum, though this does not appear in documentation.
