§DWARF Debug Information Parser

Provides functionality for parsing and interpreting DWARF debug information.

This module contains utilities for working with DWARF debug information, which is essential for mapping between memory addresses and source code, understanding variable locations, and inspecting program structure at runtime.

The module focuses on:

  • Parsing DWARF expressions to locate variables in memory or registers
  • Evaluating DWARF location descriptions
  • Extracting type and scope information
  • Managing frame information for stack unwinding and variable access

DWARF is a standardized debugging data format used by many compilers and debugging tools. This module leverages the gimli crate to parse and interpret DWARF sections from executable files.
