Currently you display:
Start Addr End Addr Size objfile
0x37aa200000 0x37aa222000 0x22000 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so
FYI max width:
0xffffffffffffffff 0xffffffffffffffff
I see now the formatstring is a copy from `info proc mappings'.
The readelf -Wl output is:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0xa6c000 0x00007f9623a5b000 0x0000000000000000 0x001000 0x015000 R E 0x1000
Flg must be there. It suggests whether that part is about segment with .text
or with .data etc.
Somehow both FileSiz MemSiz should be there. I would find OK (this is RFC) to
put there just MemSiz together with single-character column:
C if FileSiz == MemSiz
I if FileSiz == pagesize (that is only the build-id header is present)
F if FileSiz == 0
? otherwise
But not sure if one gets used to this format.
It is questionable whether Offset should be there. I use that value but
probably when one starts editing/searching etc. corefile one can run separate
readelf anyway and it would be just redundant in the GDB output. So I do not
want Offset there.
32:
printf_filtered ("\t%#10lx %#10lx %#10x %7s\n",
I think \t should be removed, screen width is scarce.
%7s should be %s.
64:
printf_filtered (" %#18lx %#18lx %#10x %7s\n",
I think " " should be removed, screen width is scarce.
%7s should be %s.
Feel free to disagree, this is more about bikeshedding, just expressing my
opinions with reasons for discussion.
Thanks,
Jan
