Subject: [PATCH dwarves 03/11] dwarves: expose and maintain active debug info loader operations
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2020 21:27:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200930042742.2525310-4-andriin@fb.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200930042742.2525310-1-andriin@fb.com>

Maintain a pointer to debug_fmt_ops corresponding to currently used debug info
format loader (DWARF, BTF, or CTF), to allow various parts of libdwarves to do
things like resolve string offset to actual string pointer in
a format-agnostic format. This allows to, say, load DWARF debug info, and use
it for BTF generation, without either of them making assumptions about how
strings are actually stored internally.

This is going to be used in the next patch to allow BTF loader and encoder to
use a very different way of storing strings (not a global shared gobuffer).
