Subject: [PATCH 2/4] gdb/elfread: replace ifunc htab_t with gdb::unordered_map
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 00:38:49 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213053912.3520505-2-simon.marchi@polymtl.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260213053912.3520505-1-simon.marchi@polymtl.ca>
From: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>
Replace this htab_t with gdb::unordered_map. No functional change
expected.
