Hello everyone, i have a patch for this issue.
Great!
List of implemented functionality:
1.Reading .gnu_debuglink section from ELF file:
a. Reading name of debug info file.
b. Verifying crc32 sum.
2. Searching for separate debug info file from paths:
a. /usr/lib/debug/path/to/executable
b. /path/to/executable
c. /path/to/executable/.debug
Assumed that debug info file generated by objcopy from binutils.
objcopy --only-keep-debug foo foo.debug
strip -g foo
objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=foo.debug foo
Skimming over the patch I noticed you duplicate libiberties xcrc32
functionality.
Also the additions to posix.c probably belong to dwarf.c and elf.c (the feature
is dwarf + elf specific but proper abstraction / #ifdefing should
ensure compiling
also succeeds for non-dwarf / non-elf platforms).
Leaving actual review to the maintainer (CCed).
Thanks,
Richard.
