[RFC PATCH 02/11] x86: tools/relocs: Support >64K section headers

From: Kristen Carlson Accardi
Date: Wed Feb 05 2020 - 17:39:39 EST


While it is already supported to find the total number of section
headers if we exceed 64K sections, we need to support the
extended symbol table to get section header indexes for symbols
when there are > 64K sections. Parse the elf file to read
the extended symbol table info, and then replace all direct references
to st_shndx with calls to sym_index(), which will determine whether
we can read the value directly or whether we need to pull it out of
the extended table.
