Shouldn't we check the name of note being "stapsdt" as well as version
(type) 3?
Since, we are already fetching the section NOTE_SCN (".note.stapsdt")
and then we check for the type being SHT_NOTE and SHF_ALLOC, is it
required to do the same for the individual notes?
I don't know.  Now it seems only includes SDT notes with name being
"stapsdt" and type being 3.  But things can be changed in future..

Thanks,
Namhyung


Yeah that may be a case. Ok, will put a check on the individual markers for their type.

Thanks
Hemant
