255 flags.
257 Each string specifies a pair: a soname pattern and a text symbol
258 name pattern, separated by a colon. The patterns can be written
259 using the normal "?" and "*" wildcards. For example:
260 ":*libc.so*:foo?bar".
262 These flags take effect when reading debuginfo from objects. If an
263 object is loaded and the object's soname matches the soname
264 component of one of the specified pairs, then Valgrind will examine
265 all the text symbol names in the object. If none of them match the
266 symbol name component of that same specification, then the run is
267 aborted, with an error message.
269 The purpose of this is to support reliable usage of marked-up
270 libraries. For example, suppose we have a version of GCC's
271 libgomp.so which has been marked up with annotations to support
272 Helgrind. It is only too easy and confusing to load the 'wrong'
273 libgomp.so into the application. So the idea is: add a text symbol
274 in the marked-up library (eg), "annotated_for_helgrind_3_6", and
275 then give the flag
277 --require-text-symbol=:*libgomp*so*:annotated_for_helgrind_3_6
279 so that when libgomp.so is loaded, we scan the symbol table, and if
280 the symbol isn't present the run is aborted, rather than continuing
281 silently with the un-marked-up library. Note that you should put
282 the entire flag in quotes to stop shells messing up the * and ?
