I have a question about patch 81ea1e7a20c (wineboot: Create section objects for known dlls., 2025-03-31) recently landed to `Wine development'.

 

Do I understand correctly, that create_known_dlls() function initializes (and then clears) internal list of KnownDLLs, creates NT section for each that KnownDLL and its import dependency and then closes all those sections?  Thus, effectively create_known_dlls() does nothing -- the dlls list is on its stack anyway, NT sections are created and almost immediately closed.  What the purpose of create_known_dlls() function?  May be I missed something, sorry, but please explain what happens there.

 

Thanks!
