And this is why we were having such a hard time understanding each other ;-)
I started a new project called "shelf", which is a shell interface to
read ELF files (Shelf on a ELF!).
It uses my ccli library:
https://github.com/rostedt/libccli
and can be found here:
https://github.com/rostedt/shelf
Build and install the latest libccli and then build this with just
"make".
$ shelf vmlinux
and then you can see what is stored in the mcount location:
shelf> dump symbol __start_mcount_loc - __stop_mcount_loc
I plan on adding more to include the REL and RELA sections and show how
they affect symbols and such.
Feel free to contribute too ;-)
