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
|
|
These functions retrieve information about global symbols from the
|
|
lookup tables in the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_pubnames"
|
|
DWARF section.
|
|
Information about these global symbols is returned using opaque descriptors
|
|
of type
|
|
.Vt Dwarf_Global .
|
|
Applications need to use the functions described below to retrieve the
|
|
name and the offsets for these descriptors.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_get_globals
|
|
retrieves descriptors for all the global symbols associated with the
|
|
DWARF debug context specified by argument
|
|
.Ar dbg .
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Ar globals
|
|
should point to a location that will be set to a pointer to an array
|
|
of
|
|
.Vt Dwarf_Global
|
|
descriptors.
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Ar nglobals
|
|
should point to a location that will be set to the number of
|
|
descriptors returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_global_cu_offset
|
|
returns the section-relative offset, relative to the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_info"
|
|
section, of the compilation unit that contains the debugging
|
|
information entry associated with the argument
|
|
.Ar global .
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar cu_offset
|
|
should point to a location that will hold the returned offset.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_global_die_offset
|
|
retrieves the section-relative offset, relative to the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_info"
|
|
section, of the debugging information entry associated with the
|
|
argument
|
|
.Ar global ,
|
|
and stores it into the location pointed to by the argument
|
|
.Ar die_offset .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_global_name_offsets
|
|
retrieves the name and the offsets for the debugging information
|
|
entry for argument
|
|
.Ar global .
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
should point to a location which will be set to a pointer to a
|
|
NUL-terminated string containing the name of the associated debugging
|
|
information entry.
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar die_offset
|
|
should point to a location which will be set to a section-relative
|
|
offset, relative to the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_info"
|
|
section, of the associated debugging information entry.
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar cu_die_offset
|
|
should point to a location which will be set to a
|
|
section-relative offset, relative to the
|
|
.Dq ".debug_info"
|
|
section, of the first debugging information entry in
|
|
the compilation unit associated with argument
|
|
.Ar global .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_globname
|
|
sets the location pointed to by argument
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
to a pointer to a NUL-terminated string holding the name of the
|
|
debugging information entry associated with the argument
|
|
.Ar global .
|
|
.Ss Memory Management
|
|
The memory area used for the array of
|
|
.Vt Dwarf_Global
|
|
descriptors returned in argument
|
|
.Ar globals
|
|
by function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_get_globals
|
|
is owned by the
|
|
.Lb libdwarf .
|
|
Application code should not attempt to directly free this pointer.
|
|
Portable code should instead use the function
|
|
.Xr dwarf_globals_dealloc 3
|
|
to indicate that the memory area may be freed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The memory area used for the string returned in the
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
argument to functions
|
|
.Fn dwarf_globname
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn dwarf_global_name_offsets
|
|
is owned by the
|
|
.Lb libdwarf .
|
|
Portable code should use the
|
|
.Xr dwarf_dealloc 3
|
|
function to indicate that the memory area may be freed.
|
|
.Ss Error Returns
|
|
If argument
|
|
.Ar err
|
|
is not NULL, these functions will use it to store error information,
|
|
in case of an error.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
On success, these functions returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_OK .
|
|
In case of an error, they return
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
|
|
and set the argument
|
|
.Ar err .
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
These functions may fail with the following errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT"
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
|
