Re: [Libunwind-devel] Get Function Address Patch

[David Mosberger-Tang]

Jose,

I checked in a patch to support the tdep_get_func_addr() hook you
need.  I didn't check in the changes to the distance-checking so far.
Something seems fishy there.  In your patch, you check "cur_dist < 0",
but cur_dist is of type "Elf_W(Addr)", which should be an unsigned
type, AFAIK, so the check makes no sense.  Can you elaborate on what's
really going on here?  Is Elf_W(Addr) signed on PPC64 for some reason?
 Or is it a compiler bug or something else?

Thanks,
