Expand description

Load program headers into task memory for static executables

This function allocates memory space for program headers and copies them from the ELF file, returning the virtual address where they are loaded. This is needed for static executables where program headers are not automatically loaded as part of any segment.

§Arguments

  • header: The parsed ELF header containing program header information
  • file_obj: The file object to read program header data from
  • task: The task to load program headers into

§Returns

  • Result<u64, ElfLoaderError>: Virtual address where program headers are loaded
