GELF_GETDYN(3)
GELF_GETDYN(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual GELF_GETDYN(3)

NAME

gelf_getdyn, gelf_update_dynread and update ELF dynamic entries

LIBRARY

ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)

SYNOPSIS

#include < gelf.h>

GElf_Dyn *
gelf_getdyn( Elf_Data *data, int ndx, GElf_Dyn *dyn);

int
gelf_update_dyn( Elf_Data *data, int ndx, GElf_Dyn *dyn);

DESCRIPTION

These convenience functions are used to retrieve and update class-dependent Elf32_Dyn or Elf64_Dyn information in the dynamic table of an ELF object.

Argument data is an Elf_Data descriptor associated with a section of type SHT_DYNAMIC. Argument ndx is the index of the entry being retrieved or updated. The class-independent GElf_Dyn structure is described in gelf(3).

Function gelf_getdyn() retrieves the class-dependent entry at index ndx in data buffer data and copies it to the destination pointed to by argument dyn after translation to class-independent form.

Function gelf_update_dyn() converts the class-independent entry pointed to by argument dyn to class-dependent form, and writes it to the entry at index ndx in the data buffer described by argument data. Function gelf_update_dyn() signals an error if any of the values in the class-independent representation exceeds the representable limits of the target type.

RETURN VALUES

Function gelf_getdyn() returns the value of argument dyn if successful, or NULL in case of an error. Function gelf_update_dyn() returns a non-zero value if successful, or zero in case of an error.

ERRORS

These functions may fail with the following errors:
[ ELF_E_ARGUMENT]
Arguments data or dyn were NULL.
[ ELF_E_ARGUMENT]
Argument ndx was less than zero or larger than the number of entries in the data descriptor.
[ ELF_E_ARGUMENT]
Data descriptor data was not associated with a section of type SHT_DYNAMIC.
[ ELF_E_RANGE]
A value was not representable in the target type.
