Hi,
keeping the windows/elfutils fork up to date definitely is a lot of
work, which is why I haven't found the time to do it for a while.
However, perfparser could in fact also use debuginfod (with some caveats).
I guess that some more of my patches could be upstreamed if properly
cleaned up. A rebase rather than a merge may be more conductive to this.
All I can do right now is tell you that I'd be happy about any
contribution. The repository I've been using still exists and accepts
outside contributions. See
https://codereview.qt-project.org/q/repo:qt-creator/elfutils . You have
to go through the Qt CLA process to work with it, but the CLA is largely
meaningless in this case. I'd be happy to move the repository to a more
"official" place without CLA.
There have also been other people on this mailing list talking about
porting elfutils to windows. Maybe if we combine our efforts we'll
actually find a way to maintain a port.
best regards,
Ulf
