By inlining them in the output when possible, that way we get context on where
the problem is, etc.

While pahole allows you to exclude classes with a specified prefix (using
--exclude), it doesn't appear to be able to do the opposite - only show classes
with a specific prefix. I found I needed this for my own use of it, so here is
a patch to add this functionality.

For correctly created and completely parsed debugging information the type will
always be found, but as we still need to parse more tags and expecting
debugging information to be always correctly built is not sane... sprinkle some
asserts.

Confusing, just follow the previous behaviour of not emitting messages
when debugging information is not found. Scripts should just look at $?

This is trying to get CTF friendly, where bitfields are not stored in the
equivalent to the DW_TAG_member dwarf TAG, but on "base types" with bit sizes
different than the real in the DWARF sense, base types (char, long, etc).

In libdwarves.so well continue using DW_TAG_ entries and types for now, but its
becoming non-DWARF specific as will be demonstrated with the introduction of
ctf_loader.c in the upcoming csets.

memdup() is only referenced from dwarves.c. This patch defines them
static. Further symbol hiding can be accomplished via GCC attributes:

Almost halves the time spent on processing a x86_64 vmlinux. Good, we
have features, now lets have performance ;-)

This will print which object files have a struct definition, i.e. not just a
forward declaration.
There are many cases in the Linux kernel where just a fwd decl would suffice or outright
unneeded includes that end up bloating the DWARF sessions and consequently making everybody
suffer with humongous kernel-debuginfo packages.
More automation is needed here, this time something like sparse seems to be
needed to check what is that a header file "provides" and what is that the C
files "requires", doing some depsolving to discover unneeded Requires, i.e.
include directives and some that are required but are only satisfied
indirectly, which is a recipe for problems down the line.

Found in at least a file (tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel) built with gcc
version 4.3.0 20080130 (Red Hat 4.3.0-0.7).
Which seems to be in violation with DWARF3, but better be defensive and handle
that.

If passed as the old file, all functions in the new file will appear as being
new, etc.

It will return NULL, this will be useful for codiff to use /dev/null as one of
the files being compared. And if you look for something in NULL, you better
get NULL, seems like a useful convention, huh?

Speeding up the process, no need to check for changes in the same object file,
be it standalone or part of a multi-cu file.

What a mouthful ;-) To be used in finding the most aligned member in a non-packed
type, i.e. one that originally wasn't __attribute__((packed)).

That is not present in stable distros, where people trying the dwarves, for
now, should just disable build id support in this awkward way till I find out
how to do it properly using cmake.
Or you can get so annoyed to the point of submitting a patch to fix this ;-)
