Return a pointer to the created BFD. If <var>fd</var> is not -1,

then <code>fdopen</code> is used to open the file; otherwise, <code>fopen</code>

is used. <var>mode</var> is passed directly to <code>fopen</code> or

|
<code>fdopen</code>.

<pre class="example"> bfd *bfd_fdopenr (const char *filename, const char *target, int fd);
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
||
|
|
<code>bfd_fdopenr</code> is to <code>bfd_fopenr</code> much like <code>fdopen</code> is to
|
||
|
|
<code>fopen</code>. It opens a BFD on a file already described by the
|
||
|
|
<var>fd</var> supplied.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>When the file is later <code>bfd_close</code>d, the file descriptor will
|
||
|
|
be closed. If the caller desires that this file descriptor be
|
||
|
|
cached by BFD (opened as needed, closed as needed to free
|
||
|
|
descriptors for other opens), with the supplied <var>fd</var> used as
|
||
|
|
an initial file descriptor (but subject to closure at any time),
|
||
|
|
call bfd_set_cacheable(bfd, 1) on the returned BFD. The default
|
||
|
|
is to assume no caching; the file descriptor will remain open
|
||
|
|
until <code>bfd_close</code>, and will not be affected by BFD operations
|
||
|
|
on other files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Possible errors are <code>bfd_error_no_memory</code>,
|
||
|
|
<code>bfd_error_invalid_target</code> and <code>bfd_error_system_call</code>.

Create and return a BFD backed by a read-only <var>stream</var>.
|

|
|
The <var>stream</var> is created using <var>open</var>, accessed using
|
||
|
|
<var>pread</var> and destroyed using <var>close</var>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Calls <code>bfd_find_target</code>, so <var>target</var> is interpreted as by
|
||
|
|
that function.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Calls <var>open</var> (which can call <code>bfd_zalloc</code> and
|
||
|
|
<code>bfd_get_filename</code>) to obtain the read-only stream backing
|
||
|
|
the BFD. <var>open</var> either succeeds returning the
|
||
|
|
non-<code>NULL</code> <var>stream</var>, or fails returning <code>NULL</code>
|
||
|
|
(setting <code>bfd_error</code>).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Calls <var>pread</var> to request <var>nbytes</var> of data from
|
||
|
|
<var>stream</var> starting at <var>offset</var> (e.g., via a call to
|
||
|
|
<code>bfd_read</code>). <var>pread</var> either succeeds returning the
|
||
|
|
number of bytes read (which can be less than <var>nbytes</var> when
|
||
|
|
end-of-file), or fails returning -1 (setting <code>bfd_error</code>).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Calls <var>close</var> when the BFD is later closed using
|
||
|
|
<code>bfd_close</code>. <var>close</var> either succeeds returning 0, or
|
||
|
|
fails returning -1 (setting <code>bfd_error</code>).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Calls <var>stat</var> to fill in a stat structure for bfd_stat,
|
||
|
|
bfd_get_size, and bfd_get_mtime calls. <var>stat</var> returns 0
|
||
|
|
on success, or returns -1 on failure (setting <code>bfd_error</code>).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>If <code>bfd_openr_iovec</code> returns <code>NULL</code> then an error has
|

|
|
occurred. Possible errors are <code>bfd_error_no_memory</code>,

|
|
<code>bfd_error_invalid_target</code> and <code>bfd_error_system_call</code>.

Close a BFD. If the BFD was open for writing, then pending

Close a BFD. Differs from <code>bfd_close</code> since it does not

|
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
||
|
|
Takes a BFD and searches it for a .gnu_debuglink section. If this
|
||
|
|
section is found, it examines the section for the name and checksum
|
||
|
|
of a '.debug' file containing auxiliary debugging information. It
|
||
|
|
then searches the filesystem for this .debug file in some standard
|
||
|
|
locations, including the directory tree rooted at <var>dir</var>, and if
|
||
|
|
found returns the full filename.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>If <var>dir</var> is NULL, it will search a default path configured into
|
||
|
|
libbfd at build time. [XXX this feature is not currently
|
||
|
|
implemented].
|
||
|
|
|

|
<p><strong>Returns</strong><br>

<code>NULL</code> on any errors or failure to locate the .debug file,
|
||
|
|
otherwise a pointer to a heap-allocated string containing the
|
||

|
filename. The caller is responsible for freeing this string.
