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. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
