44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45Function
46.Fn dwarf_get_relocation_info_count
47retrieves the total number of relocation arrays generated by a prior
48call to
49.Xr dwarf_transform_to_disk_form 3 .
50.Pp
51Argument
52.Ar dbg
53should reference a DWARF producer instance allocated using
54.Xr dwarf_producer_init 3
55or
56.Xr dwarf_producer_init_b 3 .
57The
58.Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
59flag should have been set on the producer instance.
60.Pp
61Argument
62.Ar reloc_cnt
63should point to a location which will be set to the total number of
64relocation arrays generated.
65.Pp
66Argument
67.Ar drd_buffer_version
68should point to a location which will be set to the version number
69of the relocation structures returned (see the symbol
70.Dv DWARF_DRD_BUFFER_VERSION ,
71defined in the header file
72.In libdwarf.h ) .
73.Pp
74If argument
75.Ar err
76is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case
77of an error.
78.Sh RETURN VALUES
79On success, function
80.Fn dwarf_get_relocation_info_count
81returns
82.Dv DW_DLV_OK .
83It returns
84.Dv DW_DLV_NO_ENTRY
85if the
86.Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
87flag is not set on the producer instance.
88In case of an error, function
89.Fn dwarf_get_relocation_info_count
90returns
91.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
92and sets the argument
93.Ar err .
94.Sh ERRORS
95Function
96.Fn dwarf_get_relocation_info_count
97can fail with:
98.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_NO_ENTRY"
99.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
100One of the arguments
101.Ar dbg ,
102.Ar reloc_cnt
103or
104.Ar drd_buffer_version
105was NULL.
106.It Bq Er DW_DLE_NO_ENTRY
107The
108.Dv DW_DLC_SYMBOLIC_RELOCATIONS
109flag was not set.
