* \defgroup elfloader The Contiki ELF loader
|

*
|
||||
* The Contiki ELF loader is able to load and relocate ELF object
|
||||
* files.
|
||||
* The Contiki ELF loader links, relocates, and loads ELF
|
||||
* (Executable Linkable Format) object files into a running Contiki
|
||||
* system.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* ELF is a standard format for relocatable object code and executable
|
||||
* files. ELF is the standard program format for Linux, Solaris, and
|
||||
* other operating systems.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* An ELF file contains either a standalone executable program or a
|
||||
* program module. The file contains both the program code, the
|
||||
* program data, as well as information about how to link, relocate,
|
||||
* and load the program into a running system.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The ELF file is composed of a set of sections. The sections contain
|
||||
* program code, data, or relocation information, but can also contain
|
||||
* debugging information.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* To link and relocate an ELF file, the Contiki ELF loader first
|
||||
* parses the ELF file structure to find the appropriate ELF
|
||||
* sections. It then allocates memory for the program code and data in
|
||||
* ROM and RAM, respectively. After allocating memory, the Contiki ELF
|
||||
* loader starts relocating the code found in the ELF file.
