.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.In link.h
|
||||
.In dlfcn.h
|
||||
.Ft int
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo "void * __restrict handle" "int request" "void * __restrict p"
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo
|
||||
function provides information about dynamically loaded object.
|
||||
The action taken by
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo
|
||||
and exact meaning and type of
|
||||
.Fa p
|
||||
argument depend on value of the
|
||||
.Fa request
|
||||
argument provided by caller.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
A
|
||||
.Fa handle
|
||||
argument is either the value returned from a
|
||||
.Fn dlopen
|
||||
function call or special handle
|
||||
.Dv RTLD_SELF .
|
||||
If handle is the value returned from
|
||||
.Fn dlopen
|
||||
call, the information returned by the
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo
|
||||
function is pertains the specified object.
|
||||
If handle is the special handle
|
||||
.Dv RTLD_SELF ,
|
||||
the information returned pertains to the caller itself.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The following are possible values for
|
||||
.Fa request
|
||||
argument to be passed into
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo :
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||||
.It RTLD_DI_LINKMAP
|
||||
Retrieve the Link_map (or
|
||||
.Ft struct link_map )
|
||||
structure pointer for
|
||||
.Fa handle
|
||||
specified.
|
||||
On successful return the
|
||||
.Fa p
|
||||
argument is filled with pointer to Link_map structure
|
||||
.Ft ( Link_map **p )
|
||||
describing shared object specified by
|
||||
.Fa handle
|
||||
argument.
|
||||
.Ft Link_map
|
||||
stuctures are maintained as double-linked list by
|
||||
.Xr ld.so 1
|
||||
in same order as
|
||||
.Fn dlopen
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fn dlclose
|
||||
are called.
|
||||
See
|
||||
.Sx EXAMPLES
|
||||
(Example 1)
|
||||
.It RTLD_DI_SERINFO
|
||||
Retrieve the library search paths associated with given
|
||||
.Fa handle
|
||||
argument.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Fa p
|
||||
argument should point to
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serinfo
|
||||
structure buffer
|
||||
.Fa ( Dl_serinfo *p ) .
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serinfo
|
||||
structure must be initialized first with a
|
||||
.Dv RTLD_DI_SERINFOSIZE
|
||||
request.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The returned
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serinfo
|
||||
structure contains
|
||||
.Dv dls_cnt
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serpath
|
||||
entries.
|
||||
Each entry's
|
||||
.Dv dlp_name
|
||||
field points to the search path.
|
||||
The corresponding
|
||||
.Dv dlp_info
|
||||
field contains one of more flags indicating the origin of the path (see the
|
||||
.Dv LA_SER_*
|
||||
flags defined in <link.h> header file.)
|
||||
See
|
||||
.Sx EXAMPLES
|
||||
(Example 2) for usage example.
|
||||
.It RTLD_DI_SERINFOSIZE
|
||||
Initialize a
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serinfo
|
||||
structure for use in a
|
||||
.Dv RTLD_DI_SERINFO
|
||||
request.
|
||||
Both the
|
||||
.Dv dls_cnt
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Dv dls_size
|
||||
fields are returned to indicate the number of search paths applicable
|
||||
to the handle, and the total size of a
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serinfo
|
||||
buffer required to hold
|
||||
.Dv dls_cnt
|
||||
.Ft Dl_serpath
|
||||
entries and the associated search path strings.
|
||||
See
|
||||
.Sx EXAMPLES
|
||||
(Example 2) for usage example.
|
||||
.It RTLD_DI_ORIGIN
|
||||
Retrieve the origin of the dynamic object associated with the handle.
|
||||
On successful return
|
||||
.Fa p
|
||||
argument is filled with
|
||||
.Ft char
|
||||
pointer
|
||||
.Ft ( char *p ) .

.Sh EXAMPLES
|
||||
To be continued
|
||||
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
||||
.Fn dlinfo
|
||||
returns 0 on success, or -1 if error occured.
