18We use a suffix of "_so" instead of ".so" since some distributions
19build systems will consider ".so" files as artifacts from a previous
20build that were "left-over" and will remove them prior to the build.

22All files are generated from the four (4) following source files:
23
24* libhello.c
25* libhello.h
26* tp.c
27* tp.h

29The generated executables were built using a GNU toolchain on an
30x86_64 machine.

32To regenerate them, you can use follow these steps:
33
34## ELF and DWARF
35
36 $ gcc -g -fPIC -c -I. tp.c libhello.c
a1a328b0 37 $ gcc -shared -g -llttng-ust -ldl -Wl,-soname,libhello.so -o libhello_so tp.o libhello.o
6073533d
AB
38
39## ELF only
40
41 $ gcc -fPIC -c -I. tp.c libhello.c
a1a328b0 42 $ gcc -shared -llttng-ust -ldl -Wl,-soname,libhello_elf.so -o libhello_elf_so tp.o libhello.o

44## ELF and DWARF with Build ID
45
46 $ gcc -g -fPIC -c -I. tp.c libhello.c
a1a328b0 47 $ gcc -shared -g -llttng-ust -ldl -Wl,-soname,libhello_build_id.so -Wl,--build-id=sha1 -o libhello_build_id_so tp.o libhello.o
6073533d 48 $ mkdir -p .build-id/cd/

49 $ objcopy --only-keep-debug libhello_build_id_so .build-id/cd/d98cdd87f7fe64c13b6daad553987eafd40cbb.debug
50 $ strip -g libhello_build_id_so

52The build ID might not be the same once the executable is regenerated
53on your system, so adjust the values in the directory and file names
54accordingly. Refer to the GDB documentation for more information:
