[][src]Function metagoblin::elf::reloc::reloc32::reloc64::from_raw_rela

pub unsafe fn from_raw_rela<'a>(ptr: *const Rela, size: usize) -> &'a [Rela]

Gets the rela entries given a rela pointer and the size of the rela section in the binary, in bytes. Assumes the pointer is valid and can safely return a slice of memory pointing to the relas because:

  1. ptr points to memory received from the kernel (i.e., it loaded the executable), or
  2. The binary has already been mmapped (i.e., it's a SharedObject), and hence it's safe to return a slice of that memory.
  3. Or if you obtained the pointer in some other lawful manner
