gelf_update_shdr - Man Page
copy a class-independent section header into a section descriptor
Synopsis
#include <gelf.h> int gelf_update_shdr(Elf_Scn *scn, GElf_Shdr *src);
Description
gelf_update_shdr() copies the class-independent section header referenced by src into the section descriptor scn. The section header is translated as necessary to match the class ( ELFCLASS32 or ELFCLASS64) of the underlying ELF object. If the underlying ELF object has class ELFCLASS32 then the struct members of src must fit into 32-bit field values.
Parameters
- scn
Pointer to a section descriptor of type Elf_Scn.
- src
Pointer to a GElf_Shdr structure containing the caller’s desired section header contents.
Return Value
On success, gelf_update_shdr() returns a non-zero value and marks scn with the ELF_F_DIRTY flag. On failure, this function returns 0 and elf_errno is set. If scn or src are NULL, then 0 is returned without setting elf_errno.
