[PATCH RFA] solib.c
- To: gdb-patches at sourceware dot cygnus dot com
- Subject: [PATCH RFA] solib.c
- From: Kevin Buettner <kevinb at cygnus dot com>
- Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2000 13:20:58 -0700
The changes below are motivated by the desire to have correct section
addresses stored in the obj_section structs (for shared objects) found
via the object_files list.
More information regarding this issue may be found at
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/gdb/2000-q1/msg00681.html.
There was also a patch appended to the above message. I hereby
withdraw that patch from consideration.
Note that MAX_SECTIONS has been increased to 30 (from 12). The reason
for this is that 12 was much too small. So how did I arrive at 30? I
counted the number of special sections documented in my (now rather
old) System V ABI book and counted 24. I added on six more for good
measure (to accomodate architecture specific sections.)
* solib.c (symbol_add_stub): Make symbol_file_add() aware of
all section addresses, not just .text.
* symtab.h (MAX_SECTIONS): Increase to 30.
