DWARFDUMP()DWARFDUMP()NAMEdwarfdump - dumps DWARF debug information of an ELF object
SYNOPSISdwarfdump [-abcdefilmoprsvy] [-t{afv}] [-uobjectfile] filename
DESCRIPTION
The dwarfdump command prints DWARF sections as requested by specific
options. With no options nothing prints!
The format is intended to be human readable. If a script is to parse
the output, the -d option is useful.
Not all sections actually exist in any given object file.
The format may change from release to release, so it is unwise to
depend too heavily on the format.
The dwarfdump command accepts one or more of the following options:
-a Dumps all sections. Same as -bcfilmoprsy -tfv.
-b Dumps the .debug_abbrev section.
-c Dumps the .debug_loc section.
-d Dense mode. Each die information of the .debug_info sec‐
tion is printed in one-line format. This option does not
imply -i.
-e Ellipsis mode. Short names for DW_TAG_* and DW_ATTR_*
are used in the output for the .debug_info section.
-f Dumps the .debug_frame section.
-i Dumps the .debug_info section.
-l Dumps the .debug_line information.
-m Dumps the .debug_macinfo section.
-o Dumps the .reloc_debug_* sections.
-p Dumps the .debug_pubnames section.
-r Dumps the .debug_aranges section.
-s Dumps .debug_string section.
-ta Same as -tfv.
-tf Dumps the .debug_static_funcs section.
-tv Dumps the .debug_static_vars section.
-uofile
Restricts the dumping of sections to the named compila‐
tion unit.
-v Verbose mode. Shows more detailed information. More
detailed information about the .debug_frame section
prints if 2 or 3 -v options are given.
-w Dumps the .debug_weaknames section.
-y Dumps the .debug_types section.

Currently won't deal with dwarf information in objects of a different
endianness than the host. Won't show .debug_loc information. Won't
show .debug_macinfo information. Restrictions in libdwarf affect its
capabilities.
