.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions allocate and return a
.Vt Dwarf_P_Debug
descriptor representing a DWARF producer instance.
.Pp
The argument
.Ar errhand
should contain the adddress of a function to be called in case of an
error.
If this argument is
.Dv NULL ,
the default error handling scheme is used, see
.Xr dwarf 3 .
.Pp
The argument
.Ar errarg
will be passed to the error handler function when it is invoked.
.Pp
The argument
.Ar err
references a memory location that would hold a
.Vt Dwarf_Error
descriptor in case of an error.
.Pp
The argument
.Ar flags
specifies additional characteristics of the DWARF producer instance.
The following flags are recognized:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width "Dv DW_DLC_ISA_MIPS"
.It Dv DW_DLC_ISA_IA64
.Pq Deprecated
The target instruction set architecture is IA64.
This flag is deprecated.
Application code should use the
.Xr dwarf_producer_set_isa 3
function to specify target instruction set architecture.
.It Dv DW_DLC_ISA_MIPS
.Pq Deprecated
The target instruction set architecture is MIPS.
This flag is deprecated.
Application code should use the
.Xr dwarf_producer_set_isa 3
function to specify target instruction set architecture.
.It Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_32
.Pq Default
The target address size is 32-bit.
.It Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_64
The target address size is 64-bit.
.It Dv DW_DLC_STREAM_RELOCATIONS
.Pq Default
Generate stream relocations.
.It Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
Generate symbolic relocations.
.It Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_BIGENDIAN
The target is big endian.
.It Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_LITTLEENDIAN
The target is little endian.
.It Dv DW_DLC_WRITE
.Pq Required
Permit writing of DWARF information.
.El
.Pp
The following flags are mutually exclusive.
.Bl -bullet -compact
.It
Flags
.Dv DW_DLC_ISA_IA64
and
.Dv DW_DLC_ISA_MIPS .
.It
Flags
.Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_32
and
.Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_64 .
.It
Flags
.Dv DW_DLC_STREAM_RELOCATIONS
and
.Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS .
.It
Flags
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_BIGENDIAN
and
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_LITTLEENDIAN .
.El
If neither of the flags
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_BIGENDIAN
and
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_LITTLEENDIAN
is set, the target's endianness is assumed to be the same as the host's
endianness.
.Pp
Argument
.Ar func
should point to an application-provided callback function of type
.Vt Dwarf_Callback_Func_b .
The type
.Vt Dwarf_Callback_Func_b
is defined in the header file
.In libdwarf.h
as:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
typedef int (*Dwarf_Callback_Func_b)(char *name, int size,
    Dwarf_Unsigned type, Dwarf_Unsigned flags, Dwarf_Unsigned link,
    Dwarf_Unsigned info, Dwarf_Unsigned *index, int *error);
.Ed
.Pp
This function is called by the
.Lb libdwarf
once for each section in the object file that the library needs to
create.
The arguments to this callback function specify the values in the ELF
section header for the section being created:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width indent -compact -offset indent
.It Ar name
The name of the section being created.
.It Ar size
The
.Va sh_size
value in the section header.
.It Ar type
The
.Va sh_type
value in the section header.
.It Ar flags
The
.Va sh_flags
value in the section header.
.It Ar link
The
.Va sh_link
value in the section header.
.It Ar info
The
.Va sh_info
value in the section header.
.El
.Pp
On success, the callback function should return the section index
value of the created section, and set the location pointed to by
argument
.Ar index
to the symbol table index of the symbol that associated with the newly
created section.
This symbol table index will be used in relocation entries
referring to the created section.
.Pp
In case of failure, the callback function should return -1 and set the
location pointed to by argument
.Ar error
to an application-defined error code.
This application returned error code is currently ignored by the
library.
.Pp
Function
.Fn dwarf_producer_init
is deprecated.
Function
.Fn dwarf_producer_init
is identical to function
.Fn dwarf_producer_init_b
except that the callback function it expects can not properly handle
arbitrary section symbol index values.
.Ss Memory Management
The
.Vt Dwarf_P_Debug
instance returned by these functions should be freed using the
function
.Fn dwarf_producer_finish .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
On success, these functions return the created DWARF producer
descriptor.
In case of an error, they return
.Dv DW_DLV_BADADDR
and set the argument
.Ar err .
.Sh ERRORS
These functions can fail with:
.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_NO_ENTRY"
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
Argument
.Ar func
was NULL.
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
The flag
.Dv DW_DLC_WRITE
was not set in argument
.Ar flags .
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
The flags
.Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_32
and
.Dv DW_DLC_SIZE_64
were both set in argument
.Ar flags .
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
The flags
.Dv DW_DLC_ISA_IA64
and
.Dv DW_DLC_ISA_MIPS
were both set in argument
.Ar flags .
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
The flags
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_BIGENDIAN
and
.Dv DW_DLC_TARGET_LITTLEENDIAN
were both set in argument
.Ar flags .
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
The flags
.Dv DW_DLC_STREAM_RELOCATIONS
and
.Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
were both set in argument
.Ar flags .
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_MEMORY
An out of memory condition was encountered.
.El
.Sh EXAMPLES
To initialize a
.Vt Dwarf_P_Debug
instance for a MIPS32 big endian object, use:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
Dwarf_P_Debug dbg;
Dwarf_Unsigned flags;
Dwarf_Error de;

/* ... assume cb_func points to the callback function ... */

flags = DW_DLC_WRITE | DW_DLC_SIZE_32 | DW_DLC_ISA_MIPS |
    DW_DLC_STREAM_RELOCATIONS | DW_DLC_TARGET_BIGENDIAN;
if ((dbg = dwarf_producer_init(flags, cb_func, NULL, NULL, &de)) ==
    DW_DLV_BADADDR)
	warnx("dwarf_producer_init failed: %s", dwarf_errmsg(-1));
