NT is just a prefix (Note Type, I guess). NT_GNU_ because it's a note type defined originally by the GNU toolchain (now also implemented in LLVM's lld). Probably the most useful documentation on the Build ID is this design doc from Fedora: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBuildId The short version is that the build ID is just a unique identifier for the binary. The most common case is that is either a md5 or sha1 hash of some portion of the binary's content, but a randomly generated Build ID is also valid. So reporting an inferred and possibly incorrect type provides little value, other than output compatibility with the Zoulas file. _______________________________________________ Toybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.landley.net/listinfo.cgi/toybox-landley.net
