Subject: [PATCHES v3 0/7] Initial support for some Rust tags, DW_TAG_imported_unit
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2026 17:24:23 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260622202441.14799-1-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi,
Here is a series with some initial support for some Rust DWARF
tags and support for DW_TAG_imported_unit in the same file, which makes
pahole support lots more modern userspace DWARF files, including DWARF
for Rust object files.
This makes one of the regression tests to pass again as perf now
has some rust source files and thus Rust CUs in a perf binary built with
DWARF, which is used to test pahole's pretty printing features, where it
uses the DWARF in a perf binary to decode perf.data records.
The --features=force_cu_merging, now is not strictly needed, but
remains as it may be useful at some point.
There is more work to be done to support references to a
separate file, that should come next.
