198 void elf_symtab_read (struct objfile *objfile, int type,

200
201 DESCRIPTION
202
203 Given an objfile, a symbol table, and a flag indicating whether the
204 symbol table contains regular, dynamic, or synthetic symbols, add all
205 the global function and data symbols to the minimal symbol table.
206
207 In stabs-in-ELF, as implemented by Sun, there are some local symbols
208 defined in the ELF symbol table, which can be used to locate
209 the beginnings of sections from each ".o" file that was linked to
210 form the executable objfile. We gather any such info and record it
211 in data structures hung off the objfile's private data.

575 SECTION_OFFSETS is a set of offsets to apply to relocate the symbols
576 in each section. We simplify it down to a single offset for all
577 symbols. FIXME.
578
579 This function only does the minimum work necessary for letting the
580 user "name" things symbolically; it does not read the entire symtab.
581 Instead, it reads the external and static symbols and puts them in partial
582 symbol tables. When more extensive information is requested of a
583 file, the corresponding partial symbol table is mutated into a full
584 fledged symbol table by going back and reading the symbols
585 for real.
586
587 We look for sections with specific names, to tell us what debug
588 format to look for: FIXME!!!
589
590 elfstab_build_psymtabs() handles STABS symbols;
591 mdebug_build_psymtabs() handles ECOFF debugging information.
592
593 Note that ELF files have a "minimal" symbol table, which looks a lot
594 like a COFF symbol table, but has only the minimal information necessary
595 for linking. We process this also, and use the information to
596 build gdb's minimal symbol table. This gives us some minimal debugging
597 capability even for files compiled without -g. */
