[PATCH 10/19] libctf: ELF file opening

Nick Alcock nick.alcock@oracle.com
Tue Apr 30 22:57:00 GMT 2019


These functions let you open an ELF file with a customarily-named CTF
section in it, automatically opening the CTF file and associating the
symbol and string tables in the ELF file with the CTF container, so that
you can look up the types of symbols in the ELF file via
ctf_lookup_by_symbol(), and so that strings can be shared between the
ELF file and CTF container, to save space.

These functions are both quite rusty (unused since 2009, though nothing
has changed that should have broken them) and likely to change in the
near future, since the naming of CTF sections in this implementation has
not been nailed down yet -- it is likely there will be many of them, one
per translation unit, plus one shared across many TUs, so ctf_open() and
ctf_fdopen() will probably grow a parameter indicating which of the many
possible CTF containers is wanted, as well as a variant returning an
array or a hash allowing you to open all of them at once.

I am amenable to dropping these functions for now, until things are more
nailed down, but introducing them here helps answer people's questions
about what the function with the obvious name of ctf_open() does. :)
