.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions return the offsets associated with a DWARF attribute
|
|
descriptor.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_formref
|
|
returns the compilation unit relative offset of the descriptor
|
|
referenced by argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
in the location pointed to by argument
|
|
.Ar retoffset .
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
must be a reference that is local to a compilation unit.
|
|
Permitted forms for argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
are
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref1 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref2 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref4 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref8
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref_udata .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_global_formref
|
|
returns the section-relative offset of the descriptor referenced by
|
|
argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
in the location pointed to by argument
|
|
.Ar retoffset .
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
should be a legal
|
|
.Sy REFERENCE
|
|
class form.
|
|
Permitted forms for argument
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
are:
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref_addr ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref_udata ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref1 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref2 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref4 ,
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_ref8
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv DW_FORM_sec_offset .
|
|
The returned offset is relative to the start of the
|
|
.Dq .debug_info
|
|
ELF section.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If argument
|
|
.Ar err
|
|
is not NULL, it will be used to return an error descriptor in case
|
|
of an error.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
These functions return
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_OK
|
|
on success.
|
|
In case of an error, these functions return
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
|
|
and sets argument
|
|
.Ar err .
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
These functions may fail with the following errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_ATTR_FORM_BAD"
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
|
|
Either of arguments
|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar retoffset
|
|
was NULL.
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ATTR_FORM_BAD
|
|

|
|
.Ar attr
|
|
was not of a permitted kind.
