41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42Function
43.Fn dwarf_reset_section_bytes
44resets the internal state of a DWARF producer instance, so that the
45next call to the function
46.Xr dwarf_get_section_bytes 3
47will return the byte stream for the first generated section, and
48the next call to the function
49.Xr dwarf_get_relocation_info 3
50will return the first relocation array for the DWARF producer
51instance.
52.Pp
53Argument
54.Ar dbg
55should reference a DWARF producer instance allocated using
