This identifier can be +used to add sections from an image section cache to one or more traced memory +images. See **pt_image_add_cached**(3). Sections added from an image section +cache will be shared across images. It can also be used to read memory from the +cached section. See **pt_iscache_read**(3). + +If the cache already contains a suitable section, no section is added and the +identifier for the existing section is returned. If the cache already contains +a section that only differs in the load address, a new section is added that +shares the underlying file section. + + +# RETURN VALUE + +**pt_iscache_add_file**() returns a positive image section identifier on success +or a negative *pt_error_code* enumeration constant in case of an error. + + +# ERRORS + +pte_invalid +: The *iscache* or *filename* argument is NULL or the *offset* argument is too + big such that the section would start past the end of the file. + + +# EXAMPLE + +~~~{.c} +int add_file(struct pt_image_section_cache *iscache, struct pt_image *image, + const char *filename, uint64_t offset, uint64_t size, + uint64_t vaddr, const struct pt_asid *asid) { + int isid; + + isid = pt_iscache_add_file(iscache, filename, offset, size, vaddr); + if (isid < 0) + return isid; + + return pt_image_add_cached(image, iscache, isid, asid); +} +~~~ + + +# SEE ALSO + +**pt_iscache_alloc**(3), **pt_iscache_free**(3), **pt_iscache_read**(3), +**pt_image_add_cached**(3) |
