I'd like some clarification regarding what precisely needs to be relocated relative to
the object load address when interpreting .debug_frame. I'm interested in versions
2, 3 and 4.
I think the only explicit mention of relocation in DWARF 4 is ? 6.4.1:
Abstractly, this mechanism describes a very large table...
...
The first column indicates an address for every location that contains
code in a program. (In shared objects, this is an object-relative offset.)
Thus adjustments need to be made to only
An FDE's initial_location field
DW_CFA_set_loc's operand
Have I missed anything? I see some ambiguity in the definition of
DW_CFA_def_cfa_expression and it's making me wonder if there are any
other occasions when a result would require relocation.
