With so many sections, ELF is using extended section index table, which is used to hold values for some of the indexes and extra code is needed to retrieve them. This patchset adds the support for pahole to properly read string table index and symbol's section index, which are used in btf_encoder. This patchset also adds support for libbpf to properly parse .BTF section on such object. This patchset is based on previously posted fix [1]. v3 changes: - directly bail out for !str in elf_section_by_name [Andrii] - use symbol index in collect_function [Andrii] - use symbol index in collect_percpu_var - change elf_symtab__for_each_symbol_index, move elf_sym__get to for's condition part - libbpf patch got merged v2 changes: - many variables renames [Andrii] - use elf_getshdrstrndx() unconditionally [Andrii] - add elf_symtab__for_each_symbol_index macro [Andrii] - add more comments [Andrii] - verify that extended symtab section type is SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX [Andrii] - fix Joe's crash in dwarves build, wrong sym.st_shndx assignment thanks, jirka [1] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210113102509.1338601-1-jolsa@kernel.org/ --- Jiri Olsa (2): elf_symtab: Add support for SHN_XINDEX index to elf_section_by_name bpf_encoder: Translate SHN_XINDEX in symbol's st_shndx values btf_encoder.c | 59 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- dutil.c | 8 +++++++- elf_symtab.c | 39 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- elf_symtab.h | 2 ++ 4 files changed, 90 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-)
