Thank you for implementing this! Yes, I think quite a few projects rely on the output of readelf -Ws. Using an opt-in option is necessary. The option name -X/--extra-sym-info looks good to me. Another long option name choice is --symbol-details to be similar to --section-details. > I have also moved the display of non-visibility related bits in the st_other > field to this new option. This means that by default the symbol table > displayed by readelf should be completely uniform. Like [<localentry>: 8] in the [Other] column for ppc64 ELFv2? Looks good to me, but I'd like to hear from Alan. > I have discarded the "==>" for section symbols - it looked silly.

I think readelf -sX displaying the section name twice should be as well, to not make STT_SECTION special. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
