NAME
gelf_update_syminfo - Update additional symbol information in the symbol table at the given indexSYNOPSIS
#include <gelf.h> int gelf_update_syminfo (Elf_Data *data, int ndx, GElf_Syminfo *src);
DESCRIPTION
Copy a class-independent additional symbol information entry from src into the SHT_SUNW_syminfo section associated with data at entry index ndx.data should be associated with an ELF section with type SHT_SUNW_syminfo and data type ELF_T_SYMINFO. These types are Sun/Solaris extensions and are not typically used in GNU/Linux ELF files.
PARAMETERS
- data
-
Pointer to an
Elf_Data
associated with an ELF section with type
for a section with type
SHT_SUNW_syminfo
and data type
ELF_T_SYMINFO.
- ndx
-
Zero-based index of the entry in
data
to be updated.
- src
-
Pointer to a caller-provided additional symbol information entry. Must not
be NULL.
RETURN VALUE
On success, this function returns a no-zero value and updates data with src at index ndx. The section associated with data is flagged with ELF_F_DIRTY. On failure, zero is returned and elf_errno is set. If data is NULL, then zero is returned without setting elf_errno.SEE ALSO
