I confirmed that the recursive dwarf_child() calls result in a loop, and
I'm also not sure how we can avoid it correctly. I think for now there
is no demand for eppic + Rust with makedumpfile, so I can agree about
skipping Rust DIEs.
I think that probably you tried to support them as much as possible, so
the patch has the lang check in search_domain(). but a halfway support
may be confusing, i.e. maybe a user cannot determine whether it's not
supported or a bug.
Agreed.
So could we skip it in get_debug_info() like below and describe that the
eppic extension does not support Rust's debug information in the man page?
Sure, thanks for your suggestion, I will update it in v2.

The following change works for me:
/* NOTE: currently Rust is not supported. */
if (dwarf_srclang(&cu_die) == DW_LANG_Rust) {
off = next_off;
continue;
}
I'm currently testing and will get it improved in v2
Thanks,
