Re: [DynInst_API:] New DWARF parsing in Dyninst

[Andrew Bernat <bernat@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't have a formal suite, unfortunately. However, if the test suite passes, that's a pretty good test of whether we can parse the dwarf we expect to. 

For the test suite, just build it as part of a normal make, cd to the test suite directory (testsuite/$PLATFORM), and run runTests -all. If something fails, let me know - it's pretty obvious.

I've just finished the new DWARF parser in Dyninst, with the aim towards
supporting RHEL6. I would appreciate anyone interested in dwarf parsing
or supporting newer OSes to grab a copy (via git, git.dyninst.org
<http://git.dyninst.org>) and test it out. I've tested to the limits of
the machines I have.

I'd like to help with more formal testing, if it's not too late to be
useful.  I have readily available VMs for i686 and x86_64 on RHEL4-6 and
Fedora 16-19, which I'd be happy to provide results for.

I don't see any in-tree documentation on testing.  Can you advise the
best way to build and run the testsuite?  e.g. what dependencies will
give the fullest test results, what options should I use for runTests,
and what output should I collect to give back to you?

Thanks,
Josh
