stabs: c语言如何使用stabs存放debug信息，已经如何使用stabs查找函数
stabs 已经被 DWARF 替代......
stabs是什么
Stabs (Symbol Table String) refers to a format for information that describes a program to a debugger.
GNU C compiler如何使用stabs
overview
The GNU C compiler compiles C source in a .c file into assembly language in a .s file, which the assembler translates into a .o file, which the linker combines with other .o files and libraries to produce an executable file.
With the ‘-g’ option, GCC puts in the .s file additional debugging information, which is slightly transformed by the assembler and linker, and carried through into the final executable. This debugging information describes features of the source file like line numbers, the types and scopes of variables, and function names, parameters, and scopes.
The assembler adds the information from stabs to the symbol information it places by default in the symbol table and the string table of the .o file it is building. The linker consolidates the .o files into one executable file, with one symbol table and one string table. Debuggers use the symbol and string tables in the executable as a source of debugging information about the program.
To generate stabs now, we need -gstabs option since DWARF has been used for debug information by default now.
$ gcc -gstabs tst.c # generate stabs debug info
$ gcc -g tst.c # generate DWARF
$ readelf --debug-dump=info a.out # check which version is used in executable file

.stabs "string",type,other,desc,value
The number in the type field gives some basic information about which type of stab this is (or whether it is a stab, as opposed to an ordinary symbol). Each valid type number defines a different stab type; further, the stab type defines the exact interpretation of, and possible values for, any remaining string, desc, or value fields present in the stab.
the format of symbol table entries and how stab assembler directives map to them
Each time the assembler encounters a stab directive, it puts each field of the stab into a corresponding field in a symbol table entry of its output file. If the stab contains a string field, the symbol table entry for that stab points to a string table entry containing the string data from the stab. Assembler labels become relocatable addresses. Symbol table entries in a.out have the format:
struct internal_nlist {
unsigned long n_strx; /* index into string table of name */
unsigned char n_type; /* type of symbol */
unsigned char n_other; /* misc info (usually empty) */
unsigned short n_desc; /* description field */
bfd_vma n_value; /* value of symbol */
};
If the stab has a string, the n_strx field holds the offset in bytes of the string within the string table. The string is terminated by a NUL character. If the stab lacks a string (for example, it was produced by a .stabn or .stabd directive), the n_strx field is zero.
Symbol table entries with n_type field values greater than 0x1f originated as stabs generated by the compiler (with one random exception). The other entries were placed in the symbol table of the executable by the assembler or the linker.

stabs 在symbol table中的组织/排序
Some stab types are arranged in increasing order by instruction address (n_value field). For example, N_FUN stabs (stab entries with n_type == N_FUN), which mark functions, and N_SO stabs, which mark source files, and N_SLINE for code line number.
N_SO order in a.out symbol table
the string field contains the name of the file. The value of the symbol is the start address of the portion of the text section corresponding to that file.
An N_SOL symbol specifies which include file subsequent symbols refer to. The string field is the name of the file and the value is the text address corresponding to the end of the previous include file and the start of this one. To specify the main source file again, use an N_SOL symbol with the name of the main source file.

例如，对于IP=0x00005555555546b5,
1）找对应的函数，通过N_FUN顺序查找，找到下面这行(再下一个FUN开始的地址已经大于6b5)，所以是函数func()
116 FUN 0 0 000000000000066c 972 func2:F(0,1)
127 FUN 0 0 000000000000069b 994 func:F(0,2)
127 FUN 0 0 000000000000069b 994 func:F(0,2)
137 FUN 0 0 00000000000006bc 1006 main:F(0,1)
2）找对应的行号，在找到的函数func这里找行号，里面的地址是相对于函数开始的偏移，6b5-69b=1a,找到对应的行(22是行号),
127 FUN 0 0 000000000000069b 994 func:F(0,2)

133 SLINE 0 23 000000000000001e 0
3）找对应的文件，从行号或者函数对应的那一行往上找，第一个N_SO或者N_SOL就是文件了，N_SOL是因为inline的头文件里的函数，

c语言的backtrace是如何实现的
c语言函数调用的规则是，对应stack的使用（如下图）：
调用函数的时候：先压入参数，再压入函数调用后的返回地址，
函数开始执行的时候：先压入bp(base pointer register),再保存当前的bp = sp
所以，从当前的bp可以得到调用者的bp和ip(instruction pointer,返回地址)，一直找到最开始的函数。找到
所有的ip后，再把ip用上面的方法转变成函数名、文件名就得到了详细的trace。
疑问：
stack里面的ip(返回地址)都是调用函数的下一条地址，所以通过ip得到的也是下一条地址的信息，而不是当前正在调用的函数那一行的地址。但是gdb之类的(下图的#2)，得出的确实正确的地址，怎么做到的？？？
