The debuginfod protocol/service is a way of letting tools like pixie download dwarf debuginfo on the fly, based on a build-id, from an HTTP server. The elfutils library provides a client side library or command-line tool, or one can make an HTTP request directly. Several distros run servers, and people can run their own.
