Module rvsim::elf

A simple copy-free ELF parser.

This parser is limited, and parses only the specific kind of ELF files we expect to run.

Elf32::parse can be used to parse a byte array into structs that reference the original data. Note that these structs also hold values in the original endianness.

Structs

Elf32	ELF 32-bit file structure.
ElfHeader32	ELF 32-bit header.
ElfIdent	ELF identity header.
ElfProgramHeader32	ELF 32-bit program header.
ElfSectionHeader32	ELF 32-bit section header.

Constants

ELF_IDENT_ABI_SYSV	System V ABI type value.
ELF_IDENT_CLASS_32	32-bit ELF class value.
ELF_IDENT_DATA_2LSB	Little-endian ELF datatype value.
ELF_IDENT_MAGIC	Expected ELF magic value.
ELF_IDENT_VERSION_CURRENT	Expected ELF identity version.
ELF_MACHINE_RISCV	RISC-V machine type value.
ELF_PROGRAM_TYPE_LOADABLE	Program header bit indicating a loadable entry.
ELF_SECTION_TYPE_NOBITS	Section header type indicating space with no data (bss).
ELF_TYPE_EXECUTABLE	Executable type value.
ELF_VERSION_CURRENT	Expected ELF version.
