Highlights: - Make sure that only TLS sections are sorted into TLS segment. - Fixed multiple errors in "Section to Segment mapping". - Man page updates - ar improvements - elfcopy: avoid filter_reloc uninitialized variable for rela - elfcopy: avoid stripping relocations from static binaries - readelf: avoid printing directory in front of absolute path - readelf: add NT_FREEBSD_FEATURE_CTL FreeBSD note type - test improvements NOTES: Some of these changes originated in FreeBSD and simply reduce diffs between contrib and vendor. ELF Tool Chain ar is not (currently) used in FreeBSD, and there are improvements in both FreeBSD and ELF Tool Chain ar that are not in the other. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_get_str
|
|
retrieves a NUL-terminated string from the DWARF string section
|
|
.Dq ".debug_str" .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar dbg
|
|
should reference a DWARF debug context allocated using
|
|
.Xr dwarf_init 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
should be an offset, relative to the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_str"
|
|
section, specifying the start of the desired string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar string
|
|
should point to a location which will hold a returned
|
|
pointer to a NUL-terminated string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar len
|
|
should point to a location which will hold the length
|
|
of the returned string.
|
|
The returned length does not include the space needed for
|
|
the NUL-terminator.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If argument
|
|
.Ar err
|
|
is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an
|
|
error.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_get_str
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_OK
|
|
when it succeeds.
|
|
It returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_NO_ENTRY
|
|
if there is no
|
|
.Dq ".debug_str"
|
|
section associated with the specified debugging context,
|
|
or if the provided offset
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
is at the very end of
|
|
.Dq ".debug_str"
|
|
section.
|
|
In case of an error, it returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
|
|
and sets the argument
|
|
.Ar err .
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
To retrieve all the strings in the DWARF string section, use:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
Dwarf_Debug dbg;
|
|
Dwarf_Off offset;
|
|
Dwarf_Signed len;
|
|
Dwarf_Error de;
|
|
char *str;
|
|
int ret
|
|
|
|
offset = 0;
|
|
while ((ret = dwarf_get_str(dbg, offset, &str, &len, &de)) ==
|
|
DW_DLV_OK) {
|
|
/* .. Use the retrieved string. .. */
|
|
offset += len + 1; /* Account for the terminating NUL. */
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
if (ret == DW_DLV_ERROR)
|
|
warnx("dwarf_get_str: %s", dwarf_errmsg(de));
