Otherwise a future call to elf_errno() will return a non-zero value.
update_shdr(), for example, treats any errors associated with the ELF
descriptor as fatal. Clear the error per the first example in
elf_errmsg.3.
Convert to elf_getshdrstrndx() while here since elf_getshstrndx() is

Previously we would perform a linear search of the DWARF section
list for ".debug_str". However, libdwarf always caches a pointer to
the strtab image in its debug descriptor. Using it gives a modest
performance improvement when iterating over the attributes of each
DIE.

- Update readelf and elfdump utilities to decode these program headers

Note: FreeBSD has it's own version of elfdump(1), which will be updated

The tree is indexed by section number. This speeds up elf_getscn()
and its callers, which previously had to traverse a linked list. In
particular, since .shstrtab is often the last section in a file,
elf_strptr() would have to traverse the entire list.

Summary:
Due to missing relocation support in libdwarf for powerpc64, handling of dwarf
info on unlinked objects was bogus.
Examining raw dwarf data on objects compiled on ppc64 with a modern compiler
(in-tree gcc tends to hide the issue, since it only rarely generates relocations
in .debug_info and uses DW_FORM_str instead of DW_FORM_strp for everything), you
will find that the dwarf data appears corrupt, with repeated references to the
compiler version where things like types and function names should appear.
This happens because the 0 offset of .debug_str contains the compiler version,
and without applying the relocations, *all* indirect strings in .dwarf_info will
end up pointing to it.
This corruption then propogates to the CTF data, as ctfconvert relies on
libdwarf to read the dwarf info, for every compiled object (when building a
kernel.)
However, if you examine the dwarf data on a compiled executable, it will appear
correct, because during final link the relocations get applied and baked in by
the linker.

Relative directories may appear in the line number program for a CPU if
files were included via a relative path, for instance with "-I.".
Previously, dwarf_srclines(3) and dwarf_srcfiles(3) would return the
relative path, so addr2line, for instance, would do the same. However,
we can get an absolute path by prepending the compilation directory, so
change libdwarf to do that to improve compatibility with GNU binutils
and since it is more useful in general.
