I checked in a new tool, primarily useful for debugging. Given a module
|
|
and a function name, it extracts just the specified function from the
|
|
module, with a minimum of related cruft (global variables, function
|
|
prototypes, etc).
|
|
|
|
This is useful because often something will die (for example SCCP
|
|
miscompiles one function of a large benchmark), and so you want to just
|
|
cut the testcase down to the one function that is being a problem. In
|
|
this case, 'extract' eliminates all of the extraneous global variables,
|
|
type information, and functions that aren't necessary, giving you
|
|
something simpler.
|
|
|
|
This is just an FYI, because I've found it useful and thought you guys
|
|
might as well.
