248 Each string specifies a pair: a soname pattern and a text symbol
249 name pattern, separated by a colon. The patterns can be written
250 using the normal "?" and "*" wildcards. For example:
251 ":*libc.so*:foo?bar".
253 These flags take effect when reading debuginfo from objects. If an
254 object is loaded and the object's soname matches the soname
255 component of one of the specified pairs, then Valgrind will examine
256 all the text symbol names in the object. If none of them match the
257 symbol name component of that same specification, then the run is
258 aborted, with an error message.
260 The purpose of this is to support reliable usage of marked-up
261 libraries. For example, suppose we have a version of GCC's
262 libgomp.so which has been marked up with annotations to support
263 Helgrind. It is only too easy and confusing to load the 'wrong'
264 libgomp.so into the application. So the idea is: add a text symbol
265 in the marked-up library (eg), "annotated_for_helgrind_3_6", and
268 --require-text-symbol=:*libgomp*so*:annotated_for_helgrind_3_6
270 so that when libgomp.so is loaded, we scan the symbol table, and if
271 the symbol isn't present the run is aborted, rather than continuing
272 silently with the un-marked-up library. Note that you should put
