Hi all,
I've written a small program that prints out the Build IDs of all the objects that are dynamically linked to it, plus itself.
It works well, although I'm not a C expert so I don't know if it is portable enough. For example, I hard-code some >>2 <<2s in there, along with a uint8_t - I didn't see a corresponding ElfW(xxx) type in elf.h
Another downside is it needs to be linked against libdl, which I think is not the case currently with nscd. I'm not sure if this carries extra security risk or whatever.
An alternative would be to detect the build-id *at build time* and then monkey-patch it into the binary itself.
What do you all think? How shall I proceed?
