readelf: Add some support for locviews.
This adds minimal support for locviews as output by GCC8. It changes readelf to keep track of loclistptrs from DW_AT_GNU_locviews and prints the locview pairs for those. Since there is no terminator we have to keep track of where the next loclist entry starts. The --debug-dump=loc output looks as follows: CU [ 714] base: +0x0000000000003020 <elf_hash> [ b4] view pair 1, 2 [ b6] range 4, 7f +0x0000000000003024 <elf_hash+0x4>.. +0x000000000000309e <elf_hash+0x7e> [ 0] reg5 [ d9] view pair 3, 1 view pair 1, 2 [ dd] range 4, 4c +0x0000000000003024 <elf_hash+0x4>.. +0x000000000000306b <elf_hash+0x4b> [ 0] reg5 range 4c, 7f +0x000000000000306c <elf_hash+0x4c>.. +0x000000000000309e <elf_hash+0x7e> [ 0] reg2 Note that in the above output the view pairs correspond to the ranges immediately following in the loc list. This is how GCC8 currently outputs the locview pairs and ranges, but this is not guaranteed and you'll need to look at the location and GNU_locviews attributes of the DIE to know which really match up together. We might want to adjust the output to make this more clear. This does not yet add an locview accessor to libdw. It just recognizes the DW_AT_GNU_locviews attribute as a loclistptr when encoded as a sec_offset form. Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard <mark@klomp.org>
