REVISION SUMMARY In practice .rela debug relocations often use the the .debug_* sections as the symbol, which has the value 0: ``` Relocation section '.rela.debug_info' at offset 0xd18 contains 205 entries: Offset Info Type Sym. Value Sym. Name + Addend 000000000006 001a0000000a R_X86_64_32 0000000000000000 .debug_abbrev + 0 00000000000c 001e0000000a R_X86_64_32 0000000000000000 .debug_str + 0 000000000012 001e0000000a R_X86_64_32 0000000000000000 .debug_str + 45 ``` so in those cases there is no difference if the symbol value is used in the relocation or not. It is not always the case though: ``` 000000000039 002700000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000010 xen_pci_driver + 0 ``` REVISION DETAIL https://reviews.freebsd.org/D1826 AFFECTED FILES libdwarf/libdwarf_elf_init.c To: emaste Cc: freebsd-toolchain _______________________________________________ freebsd-toolchain@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-toolchain To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-toolchain-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
