Work environment

Expected behavior

avgl command does not show global variables in the dectest64 binary.
In the symbols table (using is command), we can see that there is a global_array and global_var object

nth      paddr      vaddr bind   type   size lib name                                   
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ...
 55 0x00003050 0x00404050 GLOBAL OBJ       4     global_var
 ...
 74 0x00003058 0x00404058 GLOBAL OBJ       8     global_array
 ...

but running avgl command does not output anything.

Actual behavior

avgl command should output global_var and global_array

Initially, I thought avgl only outputs global variables added through the avga command, but running rizin on cutter 64-bit elf executable we can see that avgl shows MARK_ALPHA_F (global variable defined in Cutter/src/dialogs/MarkDialog.h) and a lot of other global variables.

It seems, on some binaries rizin is showing global variables while not showing on others

Steps to reproduce the behavior

binary from rizin-testbins: rizin-testbins/elf/dectest64

• rizin -A dectest64
• avgl

Also running avgl on these two programs, it outputs glob_var_bruv in the second program but not in the first one

First program - compiled using ninja:

// main.cpp
int glob_var_bruv = 0;

int main() {
  return 0;
}

avgl doesn't output anything here

Second Program (Qt Console APP) - compiled using ninja:

// main.cpp
#include <QCoreApplication>

int glob_var_bruv = 0;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
    return a.exec();
}

here avgl outputs: global int glob_var_bruv @ 0x403c <path-to-project>/main.cpp:35

Also if I change glob_var_bruv = 0 to glob_var_bruv = 1 in the second program, then avgl again doesn't output anything. Could it be due to glob_var_bruv now being in the .data segment? But what about the first program?
