99 The meaning of the arguments
103 .Ar offset_from_end_sym
104 depend on the value of argument
105 .Ar end_symbol_index :
110 is zero, the argument
112 specifies the relocatable address of the start of the function
113 associated with the frame descriptor, the argument
115 specifies the size in bytes of the machine instructions for this
116 function, the argument
118 specifies the ELF symbol to be used for relocating the address in
122 .Ar offset_from_end_symbol
127 is non-zero, it specifies the ELF symbol index of the second symbol to
128 be used for relocation.
129 In this case, the argument
131 specifies an offset from the relocatable symbol specified by argument
134 .Ar offset_from_end_symbol
135 should specify an offset from the symbol named by the argument
136 .Ar end_symbol_index ,
141 .Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
142 flag should also have been set on the DWARF producer instance.
144 Application code can retrieve the relocation entries for the symbol
145 pair by calling function
146 .Xr dwarf_get_relocation_info 3 .
147 The relocation entry for the first symbol will have type
148 .Dv dwarf_drt_first_of_length_pair
149 and the relocation entry for the second symbol will have type
150 .Dv dwarf_drt_second_of_length_pair .

159 .Fn dwarf_add_frame_fde
160 is similar to function
161 .Fn dwarf_add_frame_fde_b
162 except that it supports only one relocation symbol.
164 On success, these functions return the index value for
165 the added frame descriptor.
