| The elfutils documentation is very much a work in | |
| progress. Contributions are welcome. | |
| Please reports bugs at https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/ | |
| Please send additions and patches to: elfutils-devel@sourceware.org | |
| The elfutils utilities are a new implementation of many of the | |
| utilities found in binutils and consequently, the documentation for | |
| most of the tools has been the the man pages for binutils. For example | |
| you could refer to readelf's man page for instructions on | |
| eu-readelf. This has been fine up until this point but as tools gain | |
| new capabilities, they will need to have their own individual man | |
| page. Forking the man pages from binutils is acceptable and the | |
| current plan of action. | |
| New utilities that do not have an analog in binutils can have their | |
| initial man pages generated using a tool like help2man. | |
| The C language interfaces for libelf, libdw, and libdwfl are in | |
| particular need of documentation. The aspirational goal is write these | |
| in sphinx. |
