[llvm-commits] [PATCH] Add a segment type for PT_ARM_EXIDX in llvm/Support/ELF.h

[pete]

Hi,

We can find ARM defined segment types in the chapter 5 of "ELF for the ARM
Architecture",
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0044d/IHI0044D_aaelf.pdf

Table 5-1, Processor-specific segment types
Name            p_type      Meaning
PT_ARM_ARCHEXT  0x70000000  Platform architecture compatibility information
PT_ARM_EXIDX    0x70000001  Exception unwind tables
PT_ARM_UNWIND

Will it be better to add all missing constants for ARM segments?

Thanks,
Pete
