I'm trying to track down a problem where a DWARF1 AT_high_pc attribute of a
TAG_global_subroutine isn't properly fixed up when performing a final link
and retains a value of 0x00000010 which isn't anywhere in the executable...
Can someone point me towards the location where the AT_low_pc and
AT_high_pc of a TAG_global_subroutine are fixed up when the final
executable is generated?
As far as I know, the linker has no special handling for DWARF. It
simply applies the relocations it finds in the object files.
Is it possible that the attribute refers to a symbol in a section
which was removed because it was a linkonce section? Or is it
possible that you are building a shared library and the attribute
refers to a symbol which is not defined in the shared library?
