DWARF is also a standard file format for the information generated by compilers, assemblers and linkers that are necessary for symbolic source-level debugging. We usually save everything in an ELF/DWARF 2.0 format for this class.

Debugging Information Format

Debugging and traceback information (embedded in ELF).

DWARF (short for Debug With Attributed Record Format although rarely seen that way) is a widely used, standardized debugging data format.
