Subject: [Bug gdb/29563] New: gdb: support zstd for SHF_COMPRESSED debug sections
Date: Fri, 09 Sep 2022 20:02:10 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-29563-4717@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29563
Bug ID: 29563
Summary: gdb: support zstd for SHF_COMPRESSED debug sections
Product: gdb
Version: unknown
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gdb
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: i at maskray dot me
Target Milestone: ---
Zstandard is a "universal" compression algorithm which scales from
low-ratio-very-fast to high-ratio-pretty-slow.
The generic-abi proposal https://groups.google.com/g/generic-abi/c/satyPkuMisk
("Add new ch_type value: ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD") has been approved.
See https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29397 for binutils feature
request.
gdb will need to support SHF_COMPRESSED (ch_type=ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD) .debug_*
sections in executables, shared objects, and (split DWARF) .dwo files.
