            Bug ID: 31944
           Summary: RFE: dwfl_linux_proc_self_attach
           Product: elfutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libdw
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: fche at redhat dot com
                CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Elfutils/dwfl operation startup can be costly, as elfutils loads and processes
files on disk.  In the case of a self-instrumenting program, one that just
wishes to generate backtraces, some of that work may be saved.  For example,
instead of using ptrace for cross-process memory/register access, in
self-attach mode, the library can just use direct work.
