#include <gelf.h> GElf_Syminfo *gelf_getsyminfo (Elf_Data *data, int ndx, GElf_Syminfo *dst);
DESCRIPTION
Copy the additional symbol information entry from data at index ndx into the class-independent GElf_Syminfo structure pointed to by dst.data should be associated with an ELF section with type SHT_SUNW_syminfo and data type ELF_T_SYMINFO.

for a section with type
SHT_SUNW_syminfo
and data type

data.
- dst
