Subject: [PATCH v2 03/10] perf symbol: Move libelf code to its own file/header
Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2025 12:55:02 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251201205509.195451-4-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251201205509.195451-1-irogers@google.com>
Move perf declarations depending on libelf out of symbol.h into
perf-libelf.h. Move the corresponding C code into perf-libelf.c. This
is motivated by trying to make it clearer the symbol.[ch] is generic
code without library dependencies.
