old new 1 #ifndef _LINUX_ELFNOTE_H 2 #define _LINUX_ELFNOTE_H 3 /* 4 * Helper macros to generate ELF Note structures, which are put into a 5 * PT_NOTE segment of the final vmlinux image. These are useful for 6 * including name-value pairs of metadata into the kernel binary (or 7 * modules?) for use by external programs. 8 * 9 * Each note has three parts: a name, a type and a desc. The name is 10 * intended to distinguish the note's originator, so it would be a 11 * company, project, subsystem, etc; it must be in a suitable form for 12 * use in a section name. The type is an integer which is used to tag 13 * the data, and is considered to be within the "name" namespace (so 14 * "FooCo"'s type 42 is distinct from "BarProj"'s type 42). The 15 * "desc" field is the actual data. There are no constraints on the 16 * desc field's contents, though typically they're fairly small. 17 * 18 * All notes from a given NAME are put into a section named 19 * .note.NAME. When the kernel image is finally linked, all the notes 20 * are packed into a single .notes section, which is mapped into the 21 * PT_NOTE segment. Because notes for a given name are grouped into 22 * the same section, they'll all be adjacent the output file. 23 * 24 * This file defines macros for both C and assembler use. Their 25 * syntax is slightly different, but they're semantically similar. 26 * 27 * See the ELF specification for more detail about ELF notes. 28 */ 29 30 #ifdef __ASSEMBLER__ 31 /* 32 * Generate a structure with the same shape as Elf{32,64}_Nhdr (which 33 * turn out to be the same size and shape), followed by the name and 34 * desc data with appropriate padding.
