            Bug ID: 25480
           Summary: abidiff won't ignore dump files based on name
           Product: libabigail
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: default
          Assignee: dodji at redhat dot com

  Target Milestone: ---

In the dpdk project, we use libabigail to check the differences between abi
dumps (created with abidw).
We wrote some suppression rules to handle known issues or hide some internal
structures.

We have some libraries (librte_pmd_mlx*_glue.so) that are not part of the A=
BI
itself since they are loaded via a dlopen from drivers (librte_pmd_mlx*.so),
and those libraries come as a pair (librte_pmd_mlx4_glue.so is compiled at =
the
same time than librte_pmd_mlx4.so).

To deal with those, we skip those libraries dumps in the script calling
abidiff.

We would prefer to have all the exceptions described in the supression rule=
s,
but it seems that a [suppress_file] rule does not apply to dump files.
