  24. /* Define an ELF note identifying the operating-system ABI that the
  25. executable was created for. The ELF note information identifies a
  26. particular OS or coordinated development effort within which the
  27. ELF header's e_machine value plus (for dynamically linked programs)
  28. the PT_INTERP dynamic linker name and DT_NEEDED shared library
  29. names fully identify the runtime environment required by an
  30. executable.
  31. The general format of ELF notes is as follows.
  32. Offsets and lengths are bytes or (parenthetical references) to the
  33. values in other fields.
  34. offset length contents
  35. 0 4 length of name
  36. 4 4 length of data
  37. 8 4 note type
  38. 12 (0) vendor name
  39. - null-terminated ASCII string, padded to 4-byte alignment
  40. 12+(0) (4) note data,
  41. The GNU project and cooperating development efforts (including the
  42. Linux community) use note type 1 and a vendor name string of "GNU"
  43. for a note descriptor that indicates ABI requirements. The note data
  44. is four 32-bit words. The first of these is an operating system
  45. number (0=Linux, 1=Hurd, 2=Solaris, ...) and the remaining three
  46. identify the earliest release of that OS that supports this ABI.
  47. See abi-tags (top level) for details. */
