how does GDB find the symbols?
Hi,
I'm converting a coredump into the ELF format. At first, the outputs in GDB
came out blank, i.e.
#0 0x40091aa5 in ?? ()
But after I added some other infomation, now I get the symbols filled in.
i.e.
#0 0x40091aa5 in sigset (sig=-1073747472, disp=0x20) at
../sysdeps/posix/sigset.c:69
Where does GDB find the function names, the arg lists, and other such
information?
Thanks,
Lucy
