ldrseek(3x)  —  RISC

Name

ldrseek, ldnrseek − seek to relocation entries of a section of a common object file

Syntax

#include <stdio.h>
#include <filehdr.h>
#include <syms.h>
#include <ldfcn.h>

int ldrseek (ldptr, sectindx)
LDFILE ∗ldptr;
unsigned short sectindx;

int ldnrseek (ldptr, sectname)
LDFILE ∗ldptr;
char ∗sectname;

Description

The ldrseek function seeks to the relocation entries of the section specified by sectindx of the common object file currently associated with ldptr.

The ldnrseek function seeks to the relocation entries of the section specified by sectname.

The functions ldrseek and ldnrseek returns success or failure. If sectindx is greater than the number of sections in the object file, ldrseek fails; if there is no section name corresponding with sectname, ldnrseek fails. If the specified section does not have relocation entries or if it cannot seek to the specified relocation entries, either function fails.

Note

The first section has an index of one.
