.Sh SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
.In gelf.h
 | 
						|
.Ft int
 | 
						|
.Fn gelf_update_ehdr "Elf *elf" "GElf_Ehdr *ehdr"

						|
.Ft int
 |

.Fn gelf_update_phdr "Elf *elf" "int ndx" "GElf_Phdr *phdr"

.Fn gelf_update_shdr "Elf_Scn *scn" "GElf_Shdr *shdr"
 | 
						|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
These functions are used to update ELF data structures on the underlying
 | 
						|
ELF descriptor.
 | 
						|
Class-dependent data structures in the underlying ELF descriptor
 | 
						|
are updated using the data in the class-independent GElf descriptors
 | 
						|
and the underlying ELF data structures are marked
 | 
						|
.Dq dirty .
 | 
						|
The conversion process signals an error if the values being copied
 | 
						|
to the target ELF data structure would exceed representation
 | 
						|
limits.
 | 
						|
GElf descriptors are described in
 | 
						|
.Xr gelf 3 .
 | 
						|
.Pp
 | 
						|
Function
 | 
						|
.Fn gelf_update_ehdr
 | 
						|
updates the ELF Executable Header with the values in the
 | 
						|
class-independent executable header
 | 
						|
.Ar ehdr .
 | 
						|
.Pp
 | 
						|
Function
 | 
						|
.Fn gelf_update_phdr
 | 
						|
updates the ELF Program Header structure at index
 | 
						|
.Ar ndx
 | 
						|
with the values in the class-independent program header
 | 
						|
.Ar phdr .
 | 
						|
.Pp
 | 
						|
Function
 | 
						|
.Fn gelf_update_shdr
 | 
						|
updates the ELF Section Header structure associated with section
 | 
						|
descriptor
 | 
						|
.Ar scn
 | 
						|
with the values in argument
 | 
						|
.Ar shdr .
 | 
						|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
These functions return a non-zero integer on success, or zero in case
 | 
						|
of an error.
 | 
						|
.Sh ERRORS
 | 
						|
These functions may fail with the following errors:
 | 
						|
.Bl -tag -width "[ELF_E_RESOURCE]"
 | 
						|

						|
were NULL.
 | 
						|
.It Bq Er ELF_E_ARGUMENT
 | 
						|
Argument

.It Bq Er ELF_E_ARGUMENT
 | 
						|
Argument

 | 
						|
.It Bq Er ELF_E_ARGUMENT
 | 
						|
Argument

						|
.Ar ndx
 | 
						|
exceeded the number of entries in the program header table.
 | 
						|
.It Bq Er ELF_E_ARGUMENT
 | 
						|
Section descriptor
 | 
						|
.Ar scn
 | 
						|
was not associated with an ELF descriptor.
 | 
						|
.It Bq Er ELF_E_MODE
 | 
						|
ELF descriptor
 | 
						|
.Ar elf
 | 
						|
was not opened for writing or updating.
 | 
						|
.It Bq Er ELF_E_RESOURCE
