Struct Parser 

pub struct Parser { /* private fields */ }

The parser of the proka executable.

Usage

To use this parser, you must put an slice into the initializations.

If the content of the proka executable is in memory, the best way is to use core::slice::from_raw_parts.

Implementations

impl Parser

pub unsafe fn init(buf: &'static [u8]) -> Result<Self, Error>

Initialize the parser by passing a slice.

Safety

You must ensure these before invoking this function:

• The slice’s pointer is accessible and properly mapped;
• The slice’s content is a valid executable (internally checked);
• The slice must contain the header and all section tables (internally checked).

If this crate is used on the kernel-side, you must first map the memory that the slice points to before invoking this function.

pub fn validate(&self) -> bool

Do more validation after initialization.

Content

This will validates:

• Is the header min >= max;
• Is each section’s base correct;
• Is the section’s length not zeroed.
• Is section base out of length.

pub fn header(&self) -> Header

Get the header in this buffer.

pub fn sections(&self) -> SectionIter

Get each section table.
