SYNOPSIS
#include
<libelf.h>
size_t
elf32_fsize(Elf_Type
type, size_t count,
unsigned int
version);
size_t
elf64_fsize(Elf_Type
type, size_t count,
unsigned int
version);
#include

size_t
gelf_fsize(Elf
*elf, Elf_Type
type, size_t count,
unsigned int
version);
DESCRIPTION
These functions return the size in bytes of the file representation of count numbers of objects of ELF type type. For ELF types that are of variable length, these functions return a size of one byte.
Functions
elf32_fsize()
and
elf64_fsize()
return sizes for files of class ELFCLASS32 and
ELFCLASS64 respectively. Function
gelf_fsize()
returns the size for the class of ELF descriptor
elf.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return a non-zero value in case of success, or zero in case of an error.
ERRORS
These functions may fail with:
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT] - Argument elf was NULL in a call to
gelf_fsize(). - [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT] - ELF descriptor elf had an unknown ELF class.
- [
ELF_E_ARGUMENT] - Argument type contained an illegal value.
- [
ELF_E_UNIMPL] - Support for ELF type type has not been implemented.
- [
ELF_E_VERSION] - Argument version is not a supported version.
