Function Documentation

◆ rtems_rtl_archives_unprotected()

◆ rtems_rtl_find_obj_with_symbol()

rtems_rtl_obj* rtems_rtl_find_obj_with_symbol ( const rtems_rtl_obj_sym sym)

Find the object file a symbol is exported from.

Parameters

◆ rtems_rtl_global_symbols()

◆ rtems_rtl_load()

rtems_rtl_obj* rtems_rtl_load ( const char *  name,
int  mode 
)

Load an object file. This is the user accessable interface to unloading an object file. See .

Parameters
nameThe name of the object file.
modeThe mode of the load as defined by the dlopen call.
Returns
rtl_obj* The object file descriptor. NULL is returned if the load fails.

◆ rtems_rtl_load_object()

rtems_rtl_obj* rtems_rtl_load_object ( const char *  name,
int  mode 
)

Load an object file into memory relocating it. It will not be resolved against other symbols in other object files or the base image.

The name can be a file name for an object file or it can be encoded to reference an archive of object modules (static library). This encoding is specific to RTEMS and allows dependences to specify an archive without the searching overhead normally incurred by linkers locating object files in an archive. The file name format rules are:

  1. Absolute file references a specific object file in the architecture specific location on the file system.
  2. Relative file references an object format file in the search path.
  3. Absolute archive and file reference to a specific location in the file system. The archive and file are encoded as 'archive:file [@offset]' where 'archive' is a valid file at the absolute path in the file system, and 'file' is a contained in the archive, and optionally an offset to the 'file' in the 'archive'. If no offset is provided the archive is searched.
  4. Relative archive and file in the search path. The encoding is the same as described in item 3 of this list.

Assumes the RTL has been locked.

Parameters
nameThe name of the object file.
modeThe mode of the load as defined by the dlopen call.
Returns
rtl_obj* The object file descriptor. NULL is returned if the load fails.

◆ rtems_rtl_lock()

rtems_rtl_data* rtems_rtl_lock ( void  )

void rtems_rtl_obj_caches ( rtems_rtl_obj_cache **  symbols,
rtems_rtl_obj_cache **  strings,
rtems_rtl_obj_cache **  relocs 
)

Get the RTL symbols, strings, or relocations object file caches. This call assmes the RTL is locked.
