Hi Martin,
The change was made so that the output from the binutils readelf would be
closer to that of the elfutils readelf. Vis:
Old Binutils:
<14> DW_AT_name : (indirect string, offset: 0x69):
../sysdeps/x86_64/crti.S
2.36 Binutils:
<14> DW_AT_name : (strp) (offset: 0x69): ../sysdeps/x86_64/crti.S
Elfutils:
name (strp) "../sysdeps/x86_64/crti.S"
The change also means that the form name can be deduced from the output.
Ie "(strp)" indicates that it was DW_FORM_strp. Likewise "(addr)" is
DW_FORM_addr and so on.
Readelf has never made any promises regarding the consistency of its
output, although I do appreciate that changes like this are annoying
when they break scripts that are used to the old format.
Can the strace configure script be adapted to cope with both versions
of readelf's output ?
Cheers
Nick
