Subject: [Bug gdb/31669] wrong "info symbol" output, symbol shadowing, __dso_handle
Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2024 22:09:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-31669-4717-M6h6TI3fEF@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

Also:

```
pwndbg> info symbol 0x402008+2748
__dso_handle + 2748 in section .rodata
pwndbg> info symbol 0x402008+2749
No symbol matches 0x402008+2749.
pwndbg> info symbol 0x402008+2750
No symbol matches 0x402008+2750.
pwndbg> info symbol 0x402008+2751
No symbol matches 0x402008+2751.
pwndbg> info symbol 0x402008+2752
__GNU_EH_FRAME_HDR in section .eh_frame_hdr
```

It seems that GDB creates symbols for each address past a given symbol address
until 4 bytes before another symbol?

It would be nice to be able to:
1) disable this behavior
2) have a way to query for symbols around a given address, e.g. 0x402008+2751
should show us the symbols/addresses of `__dso_handle` and `__GNU_EH_FRAME_HDR`
