Detailed Description

Complete ELF structure storage class.

Allows to craft ELF file using low-level interfaces for manipulating data fields and accessing headers contained inside. This class is not meant to provide any abstraction on top of ELF structure

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.__init__	(		self,
			Ehdr = None,
			Phdr_table = None,
			Shdr_table = None,
			sections = None,
			little = False
	)

The constructor.

Reconstructs new Elf32 object with all stored public members

Parameters

Ehdr	ELF header
Phdr_table	List of program headers
Shdr_table	List of section headers
sections	List of section contents
little	Endianness of ELF file

Member Function Documentation

__bytes__()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.__bytes__

(

self

)

Serialization to bytes.

Converts Python object to byte stream, ready to be saved to ELF file

Returns

Serialized object

__len__()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.__len__

(

self

)

Length of object.

Returns

length of object

__repr__()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.__repr__

(

self

)

String representation.

Provides ability to recreate object using its constructor, from Python CLI mode

Returns

String in format: "Classname(param, param2)"

__str__()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.__str__

(

self

)

Convert to str.

Useful for presenting contents to the user

Returns

String in format: "{key=val, key2=val2}"

from_bytes()

def makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.from_bytes	(		b,
			little = False
	)

Deserialization of object.

Parameters

b	bytes object with serialized data on the beginning
little	endianness of data

Returns

tuple of deserialized object and rest of bytes

Member Data Documentation

sections

makeelf.elfstruct.Elf32.sections

List of section content.

Contains raw bytes objects or any type that can be converted using bytes function
