Tool for generating ABI reports for libraries and binaries

Go Report Card license

Motivation

As a package maintainer, it's a challenging task to keep track of binary dependencies and ABI changes. This tool generates reports that can be used to inform maintainers of ABI and dependency changes.

Goals

  • Fast scan times
  • Be completely distro agnostic
  • A+ Rating on Report Card

Installation

  1. Clone repo and enter its
  2. make
  3. sudo make install

Usage

abi-wizard <file/path>

where file/path is a path to a location to scan.

Output

Up to 4 files per device architecture may be generated:

File Purpose
abi_libs List of ELF files provided by the search path
abi_symbols List of symbols exported by the detected ELF files
abi_used_libs List of libs imported by the detected ELF files
abi_used_symbols List of symbols imported by the detected ELF files

A suffix will be added to the output files to signify the architecture:

Architecture Suffix
x86 32
x86_64 N/A

Currently only 32-bit and 64-bit x86 architectures are supported
