Dear all I have a question about the FDE encoding in eh_frame (and not dwarf_frame) tables.
This document (I could not find a better description of eh_frame) http://www.airs.com/blog/archives/460 states that: "An FDE starts with the length and ID described above, and then continues as follows. 1 The _starting address_ to which this FDE applies. This is encoded using the FDE encoding specified by the associated CIE.” In a sample elf file, the associated CIE augmentation data state reports: DW_EH_PE_pcrel, DW_EH_PE_sdata4 and the untranslated starting address value in the FDE is fffffe88 (according to readelf this should be translated to 4004d0). I do not understand what “value is PC relative” means here, as we are actually defining the range of PC values. Can somebody explain me how to interpret this _starting address_ field? Thank you in advance. -francesco
