1 This is a collection of programs that are generally unrelated, except in
2 that they all deal with ELF files.
4 The main purpose of these programs is to be illustrative and educational
5 -- to help fellow programmers understand ELF files and something of how
6 they work under the Linux platform.
8 Each program is independent. There is very little shared code between them,
9 and in fact they all take slightly different approaches to handling ELF files.
11 The package includes:
13 * sstrip: a small utility that removes a few bytes from an executable that
14 strip leaves behind.
15 * elftoc: a program that takes an ELF file and generates C code that defines
16 a struct with the same memory image, using the structs and preprocessor
17 symbols defined in <elf.h>.
18 * elfls: a utility that displays an ELF file's program or section header tables,
19 which serve as a kind of global roadmap to the file's contents.
20 * rebind: a small utility that alters the binding of selected symbols in an
21 object file.
