I noticed that the CTF symbol reader passes the objfile's name to all
buildsym_compunit instances it creates. The result is that all
compunit_symtabs created have the same name, that of the objfile:
{ objfile /tmp/babeltrace-ctf/src/lib/.libs/libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 ((struct objfile *) 0x613000005d00)
{ ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x621000286760)
debugformat ctf
producer (null)
name libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0
dirname (null)
blockvector ((struct blockvector *) 0x6210003911d0)
user ((struct compunit_symtab *) (null))
{ symtab /tmp/babeltrace-ctf/src/lib/.libs/libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 ((struct symtab *) 0x6210003911f0)
fullname (null)
linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x0)
}
}
{ ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x621000275c10)
debugformat ctf
producer (null)
name libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0
dirname (null)
blockvector ((struct blockvector *) 0x621000286710)
user ((struct compunit_symtab *) (null))
{ symtab /tmp/babeltrace-ctf/src/lib/.libs/libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 ((struct symtab *) 0x621000286730)
fullname (null)
linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x0)
}
}
Notice the two "name libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0".
Change it to pass the partial_symtab's filename instead. The output
becomes:
{ objfile /tmp/babeltrace-ctf/src/lib/.libs/libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 ((struct objfile *) 0x613000005d00)
{ ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x621000295610)
debugformat ctf
producer (null)
name libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0
dirname (null)
blockvector ((struct blockvector *) 0x6210003a15d0)
user ((struct compunit_symtab *) (null))
{ symtab /tmp/babeltrace-ctf/src/lib/.libs/libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 ((struct symtab *) 0x6210003a15f0)
fullname (null)
linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x0)
}
}
{ ((struct compunit_symtab *) 0x621000288700)
debugformat ctf
producer (null)
name current-thread.c
dirname (null)
blockvector ((struct blockvector *) 0x6210002955c0)
user ((struct compunit_symtab *) (null))
{ symtab /home/simark/src/babeltrace/src/lib/current-thread.c ((struct symtab *) 0x6210002955e0)
fullname (null)
linetable ((struct linetable *) 0x0)
}
}
Note that the first compunit_symtab still has libbabeltrace2.so.0.0.0 as
its name. This is because the CTF symbol reader really creates a
partial symtab named like this. It appears to be because the debug info
contains information that has been factored out of all CUs and is at the
"top-level" of the objfile, outside any real CU. So it creates a
partial symtab and an artificial CU that's named after the objfile.
