NAME

elf32_fsize − return the size of an object file type

SYNOPSIS

#include <libelf.h>

size_t elf32_fsize(Elf_Type type, size_t count, unsigned ver);

MT-LEVEL

Unsafe

DESCRIPTION

elf32_fsize() gives the size in bytes of the 32-bit file representation of count data objects with the given type. The library uses version ver to calculate the size (see elf(3E) and elf_version(3E)). 

Constant values are available for the sizes of fundamental types:

Elf_TypeFile SizeMemory Size
ELF_T_ADDRELF32_FSZ_ADDRsizeof(Elf32_Addr)
ELF_T_BYTE1sizeof(unsigned char)
ELF_T_HALFELF32_FSZ_HALFsizeof(Elf32_Half)
ELT_T_OFFELF32_FSZ_OFFsizeof(Elf32_Off)
ELF_T_SWORDELF32_FSZ_SWORD sizeof(Elf32_Sword)
ELF_T_WORDELF32_FSZ_WORDsizeof(Elf32_Word)

elf32_fsize() returns zero if the value of type or ver is unknown.  See elf32_xlatetof(3E) for a list of the type values.
