Rewrite our tools (i.e. nm
, addr2line
, etc) to work at a higher layer of abstraction (e.g. change nm
to work with 'lists of program symbols' ), while deferring the details of building these data structures to a lower-level implementation which would be file format specific.
This change would allow use to 'port' our utilities to other file formats holding machine information.
