[2.3.0] - 2023-11-05

Added

• Support for parsing clang lld's map fles.
• New functions:
  • MapFile.parseMapContents/MapFile::parse_map_contents
    • Parses the map contents passed as the argument, without requiring the map
      being on an actual file.
    • The map format will be guessed on the contents. Currently both the GNU ld
      and clang ld.lld map formats are recognized.
  • MapFile.parseMapContentsGNU/MapFile::parse_map_contents_gnu
    • Parses the map contents passed as the argument, without requiring the map
      being on an actual file.
    • This function only parses the GNU ld map format.
  • MapFile.parseMapContentsLLD/MapFile::parse_map_contents_lld
    • Parses the map contents passed as the argument, without requiring the map
      being on an actual file.
    • This function only parses the clang ld.lld map format.
• New members:
  • Symbol.align/Symbol::align, File.align/File::align and
    Segment.align/Segment::align: The alignment the given type. This member
    will be filled by the parser only if the mapfile provides this information.

Changed

• MapFile.readMapFile/MapFile::read_map_file can now guess the map format
  between any of the known formats.
• Some known symbol names will be automatically filtered out during the parsing
  step.
  • Currently only gcc2_compiled. is filtered out.

Fixed

• Fix parser not detecting *fill* lines on GNU ld maps if they specified the
  value that was used for filling/padding.
• .sbss, COMMON and .scommon sections are now properly considered noload
  sections.
