     pointed to by argument retcode.  If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to return an error descriptor in case of an error.

RETURN VALUES

     On success, function dwarf_whatattr() returns DW_DLV_OK.  In case of an error, it returns DW_DLV_ERROR and sets argument err.

     int
     dwarf_formsig8(Dwarf_Attribute attr, Dwarf_Sig8 *ret, Dwarf_Error *err);
