Re: Speedup dwfl_module_addrsym


I'm not entirely sure about having this as a new public interface.  It
might make more sense to return the Elf_Scn of the symtab or something like
that.  My inclination is to start out by only using the information
internally, and think about a public interface for it later when there is
actual demand for that.

I think "symglobals" is an unnatural name for fields and variables for
this.  It looks like a count, and what it's the count of is the locals.
So something like "nlocals" or "first_global" makes more sense to me.


Thanks,
Roland
