This function only does the minimum work necessary for letting the user "name" things symbolically; it does not read the entire symtab. Instead, it reads the external and static symbols and puts them in partial symbol tables. When more extensive information is requested of a file, the corresponding partial symbol table is mutated into a full fledged symbol table by going back and reading the symbols for real. The function dwarf_psymtab_to_symtab() is the function that does this for DWARF symbols. Note that ELF files have a "minimal" symbol table, which looks a lot like a COFF symbol table, but has only the minimal information necessary for linking.
