23 SECTION
24 Symbols
26 BFD tries to maintain as much symbol information as it can when
27 it moves information from file to file. BFD passes information
28 to applications though the <<asymbol>> structure. When the
29 application requests the symbol table, BFD reads the table in
30 the native form and translates parts of it into the internal
31 format. To maintain more than the information passed to
32 applications, some targets keep some information ``behind the
33 scenes'' in a structure only the particular back end knows
34 about. For example, the coff back end keeps the original
35 symbol table structure as well as the canonical structure when
36 a BFD is read in. On output, the coff back end can reconstruct
37 the output symbol table so that no information is lost, even
38 information unique to coff which BFD doesn't know or
39 understand. If a coff symbol table were read, but were written
40 through an a.out back end, all the coff specific information
41 would be lost. The symbol table of a BFD
42 is not necessarily read in until a canonicalize request is
43 made. Then the BFD back end fills in a table provided by the
44 application with pointers to the canonical information. To
45 output symbols, the application provides BFD with a table of
46 pointers to pointers to <<asymbol>>s. This allows applications
47 like the linker to output a symbol as it was read, since the ``behind
48 the scenes'' information will be still available.

60 Reading symbols
62 There are two stages to reading a symbol table from a BFD:
63 allocating storage, and the actual reading process. This is an
64 excerpt from an application which reads the symbol table:
66 | long storage_needed;
67 | asymbol **symbol_table;
68 | long number_of_symbols;
69 | long i;
71 | storage_needed = bfd_get_symtab_upper_bound (abfd);
73 | if (storage_needed < 0)
74 | FAIL
76 | if (storage_needed == 0) {
77 | return ;
78 | }
79 | symbol_table = (asymbol **) xmalloc (storage_needed);
80 | ...
81 | number_of_symbols =
82 | bfd_canonicalize_symtab (abfd, symbol_table);
84 | if (number_of_symbols < 0)
85 | FAIL
87 | for (i = 0; i < number_of_symbols; i++) {
88 | process_symbol (symbol_table[i]);
89 | }
91 All storage for the symbols themselves is in an objalloc
92 connected to the BFD; it is freed when the BFD is closed.

96 SUBSECTION
97 Writing symbols
99 Writing of a symbol table is automatic when a BFD open for
100 writing is closed. The application attaches a vector of
101 pointers to pointers to symbols to the BFD being written, and
102 fills in the symbol count. The close and cleanup code reads
103 through the table provided and performs all the necessary
104 operations. The BFD output code must always be provided with an
105 ``owned'' symbol: one which has come from another BFD, or one
106 which has been created using <<bfd_make_empty_symbol>>. Here is an
107 example showing the creation of a symbol table with only one element:
109 | #include "bfd.h"
110 | main()
112 | bfd *abfd;
113 | asymbol *ptrs[2];
114 | asymbol *new;
116 | abfd = bfd_openw("foo","a.out-sunos-big");
117 | bfd_set_format(abfd, bfd_object);
118 | new = bfd_make_empty_symbol(abfd);
119 | new->name = "dummy_symbol";
120 | new->section = bfd_make_section_old_way(abfd, ".text");
121 | new->flags = BSF_GLOBAL;
122 | new->value = 0x12345;
124 | ptrs[0] = new;
125 | ptrs[1] = (asymbol *)0;
127 | bfd_set_symtab(abfd, ptrs, 1);
128 | bfd_close(abfd);
131 | ./makesym
132 | nm foo
133 | 00012345 A dummy_symbol
135 Many formats cannot represent arbitary symbol information; for
136 instance, the <<a.out>> object format does not allow an
137 arbitary number of sections. A symbol pointing to a section
138 which is not one of <<.text>>, <<.data>> or <<.bss>> cannot
139 be described.
141 INODE
142 Mini Symbols, typedef asymbol, Writing Symbols, Symbols
143 SUBSECTION
144 Mini Symbols
146 Mini symbols provide read-only access to the symbol table.
147 They use less memory space, but require more time to access.
148 They can be useful for tools like nm or objdump, which may
149 have to handle symbol tables of extremely large executables.
151 The <<bfd_read_minisymbols>> function will read the symbols
152 into memory in an internal form. It will return a <<void *>>
153 pointer to a block of memory, a symbol count, and the size of
154 each symbol. The pointer is allocated using <<malloc>>, and
155 should be freed by the caller when it is no longer needed.
157 The function <<bfd_minisymbol_to_symbol>> will take a pointer
158 to a minisymbol, and a pointer to a structure returned by
159 <<bfd_make_empty_symbol>>, and return a <<asymbol>> structure.
160 The return value may or may not be the same as the value from
161 <<bfd_make_empty_symbol>> which was passed in.
