199 void elf_symtab_read (struct objfile *objfile, int type,

201
202 DESCRIPTION
203
204 Given an objfile, a symbol table, and a flag indicating whether the
205 symbol table contains regular, dynamic, or synthetic symbols, add all
206 the global function and data symbols to the minimal symbol table.
207
208 In stabs-in-ELF, as implemented by Sun, there are some local symbols
209 defined in the ELF symbol table, which can be used to locate
210 the beginnings of sections from each ".o" file that was linked to
211 form the executable objfile. We gather any such info and record it
212 in data structures hung off the objfile's private data.
