13 15 DESCRIPTION
14 16 The Pupdate_syms() function is used to update all of the cached symbol
15 17 tables in the process handle P: updating, invalidating, and caching new
16 18 symbol tables as appropriate for functions such as Psymbol_iter(3PROC).
17 19 This is generally called in response to activity by the run-time link-
18 20 editor. In general, the libproc library takes care of managing the need
19 21 to call this function; however, debuggers, introspection tools, and
20 22 others that are interposing on rtld activity may need to call this
21 23 function. Note that the Pupdate_syms() function is only meaningful for
22 24 active processes. It will do nothing on process handles that refer to
23 25 core files, zombie processes, and ELF objects.
