[PATCH v2 4/4] Add an optional offset option to the "add-symbol-file" command
- From: Petr Tesarik <ptesarik at suse dot cz>
- To: gdb-patches at sourceware dot org

- Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] Add an optional offset option to the "add-symbol-file" command
- References: <20180611120835.27343-1-ptesarik@suse.cz>
If all sections of a symbol file are loaded with a fixed offset, it
is easier to specify that offset than listing all sections
explicitly. There is also a similar option for "symbol-file".
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-06-11 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.com>
* symfile.c (add_symbol_file_command, _initialize_symfile): Add
option "-o" to add-symbol-file-load to add an offset to each
section's load address.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
2018-06-11 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.com>
* gdb.texinfo (Files): Document "add-symbol-file -o offset".
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2018-06-11 Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.com>
* gdb.base/relocate.exp: Add test for "add-symbol-file -o ".

* The 'symbol-file' command now accepts an '-o' option to add a relative
offset to all sections.
+* Similarly, the 'add-symbol-file' command also accepts an '-o' option to add
+ a relative offset to all sections, but it allows to override the load
+ address of individual sections using '-s'.

* The 'add-symbol-file' command no longer requires the second argument
(address of the text section).
