What does 'access' mean in your email? (Rhetorical question)
Write a script or program that reads output from dwarfdump (or readelf,
a GNU binutils
tool) and which does what you want.
Or write code that reads the object file directly and decodes the DWARF
information.
You will surely need to build data structures to capture the information
of interest.
I suspect you have enough information to proceed. But that does
not mean your task is easy :-)
Programs are complicated, the relationships are complicated (especially
in C++ and Ada, and Fortran gets
more complicated all the time). So the DWARF to express the
relationships is complicated.
