NAME

dwarf_add_arange, dwarf_add_arange_b – add address range information to a DWARF producer instance

CONTENTS

LIBRARY

DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf)

SYNOPSIS

#include <libdwarf.h>

Dwarf_Unsigned
dwarf_add_arange(Dwarf_P_Debug dbg, Dwarf_Addr start, Dwarf_Unsigned length, Dwarf_Signed symbol_index, Dwarf_Error *err);

Dwarf_Unsigned
dwarf_add_arange_b(Dwarf_P_Debug dbg, Dwarf_Addr start, Dwarf_Unsigned length, Dwarf_Unsigned symbol_index, Dwarf_Unsigned end_symbol_index, Dwarf_Addr offset_from_end_symbol, Dwarf_Error *err);

DESCRIPTION

Function dwarf_add_arange_b() adds an address range entry to a producer instance.

Argument dbg should reference a DWARF producer instance allocated using dwarf_producer_init(3) or dwarf_producer_init_b(3).

Argument start specifies the relocatable start address of the address range.

Argument length specifies the length of the address range.

Argument symbol_index specifies the ELF symbol index of the first symbol to be used for relocation.

Argument end_symbol_index specifies the ELF symbol index of the second symbol to be used for relocation.

If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an error.

Function dwarf_add_arange() is deprecated. It is similar to function dwarf_add_arange_b() except that it cannot handle all possible symbol index values and supports only one relocation symbol.

RETURN VALUES

On success, these functions return a non-zero value. In case of an error, these functions return 0 and set the argument err.

ERRORS

These functions can fail with:
[DW_DLE_ARGUMENT] Argument dbg was NULL.
[DW_DLE_ARGUMENT] Argument end_symbol_index was non-zero, but the flag DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS was not set on the producer instance.
[DW_DLE_MEMORY] An out of memory condition was encountered during the execution of the function.
