  45
  46    A minimal symbol is a symbol for which there is no direct debug
  47    information.  For example, for an ELF binary, minimal symbols are
  48    created from the ELF symbol table.
  49
  50    For the definition of the minimal symbol structure, see struct
  51    minimal_symbol in symtab.h.
  52
  53    Minimal symbols are stored in tables attached to an objfile; see
  54    objfiles.h for details.  Code should generally treat these tables
  55    as opaque and use functions provided by minsyms.c to inspect them.

  93      false, then NAME must be NUL-terminated, and must have a lifetime
  94      that is at least as long as OBJFILE's lifetime.
