Abstract: A method of forming an executable program from a plurality of object code modules, each object code module including a plurality of relocation instructions having at least one information output relocation with a field indicating information to be output, the method including reading a relocation instruction from one of the object code modules, and when the read relocation instruction is an information output relocation, displaying the information indicated in the field in a human readable form.

Abstract: Call frame information is used by debugging software. It records how to restore the parent stack frame at any point during execution of a program. It is normally generated during compilation and stored in the executable in a compressed format, consisting of sequences of instructions that describe how the current call frame changes during execution of each function. Described herein is a means of generating call frame information at link time, using linker macro calls generated by a small set of assembler macros.

Abstract translation: 呼叫帧信息由调试软件使用。 它记录了在执行程序期间的任何时候如何恢复父堆栈帧。 它通常在编译期间生成并以压缩格式存储在可执行文件中，该格式由描述当前调用帧在每个功能执行期间如何改变的指令序列组成。 这里描述的是使用由一组汇编器宏生成的链接器宏调用在链接时产生呼叫帧信息的手段。

Abstract: A method of forming an executable program from a plurality of object code modules, each object code module having section data, a set of relocation instructions and one or more symbols, each symbol having a plurality of attributes associated therewith, wherein said relocation instructions includes a data retrieval instruction having a symbol field identifying a symbol and an attribute field identifying a symbol attribute associated with said identified symbol to be retrieved, the method includes: reading at least one relocation from said set of relocations instruction and where said relocation instruction is a data retrieval instruction, determining the symbol identified by the symbol field and retrieving one of said plurality of symbol attributes associated with said symbol in dependence on the contents of the symbol attributes field of said instruction.
