# This script reads the dynamic symbol table of a DSO (ELF file) via nm
# and writes out a sequence of lines for each symbol in the DSO's ABI
# that can be used as C macros.  The macro invocations it writes look like:
#   TYPE(NAME, [ADDRESS,] SIZE)
# The ADDRESS parameter is included only if the script is given the -a switch.
# The SIZE is forced to 0 for functions if the script is given the -z switch.
# The TYPE is one of:
#   COMMON_OBJECT               STT_COMMON symbol
#   UNDEFINED                   SHN_UNDEF symbol
#   UNDEFINED_WEAK_OBJECT       SHN_UNDEF, STB_WEAK, STT_OBJECT symbol
#   UNDEFINED_WEAK              SHN_UNDEF, STB_WEAK, STT_FUNC symbol
#   WEAK_DATA_OBJECT            STB_WEAK, STT_OBJECT symbol
#   WEAK_FUNCTION               STB_WEAK, STT_FUNC symbol
#   FUNCTION                    STB_GLOBAL, STT_FUNC symbol
#   RODATA_OBJECT               STB_GLOBAL, STT_OBJECT symbol in R/O section
#   DATA_OBJECT                 STB_GLOBAL, STT_OBJECT symbol in R/W section
#   BSS_OBJECT                  STB_GLOBAL symbol in SHT_NOBITS section
# (nm actually uses a haphazard combination of ELF symbol details and
# section details to choose its type letters rather than directly using the
# ELF symbol bits consistently.  But the type letters map to these symbol
# details when symbols are defined in the usual ways by a compiler.)
