* SymLoadModuleEx() on the DLL fails (with ERROR_SUCCESS, sic) on ARM64, so we have to resort to loading the DLL in memory and look for the "RSDS" section to access the GUID and Age. * Except that, once you sort that, you end up with SymEnumSymbols() producing two separate addresses for each symbol, on account that the Windows 11 ARM64 DLLs are actually an unholy union of X64 and ARM64 *in the same binary*, under an abomination that Microsoft calls ARM64X (See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/arm/arm64x-pe for details). * And, of course, Microsoft did not provide any means during PDB enumeration to tell which address is for which arch. Especially, the bloody pSymInfo->TypeIndex, that they could easily have used for this, is utterly pointless as it remains set to 0... * This means that, even after all this effort, we're still nowhere close to have a solution that can make DLL address resolution work on Windows 11 ARM64. |
