LIBRARY
ELF Parsing Library (libelf, -lelf)
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 <gelf.h>
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.
 
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.
