Bug ID: 39995
Summary: llvm-nm should print section names for section symbols
Product: tools
Version: trunk
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P
Component: llvm-nm
Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
Reporter: jh7370.2008 at my.bristol.ac.uk
CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org
GNU nm displays the section name in the place of a symbol name for section
symbols when dumping with the --debug-syms switch. It would make sense if we
did a similar thing in llvm-nm, as it makes the output more readable.
Example input:
int bar;
int main(){
return bar;
}
Compiled with:
C:\llvm\build\Debug\bin\clang.exe --target=x86_64-pc-linux -c bar.cpp -g
GNU nm:
nm -a bar.o
0000000000000000 N .debug_abbrev
0000000000000000 N .debug_line
0000000000000000 N .debug_str
0000000000000000 t .text
0000000000000000 B bar
0000000000000000 a bar.cpp
0000000000000000 T main
llvm-nm:
U
0000000000000000 t
0000000000000000 ?
0000000000000000 ?
0000000000000000 ?
0000000000000000 B bar
0000000000000000 a bar.cpp
0000000000000000 T main
I'm guessing that this would also fix the '?' which should be 'N' for the
.debug* section symbols. If not, a new bug should be filed.
