Linux ELF 文件结构

    Linux下ELF文件类型分为以下几种:

    1、可重定位文件,例如SimpleSection.o;

    2、可执行文件,例如/bin/bash;

    3、共享目标文件,例如/lib/libc.so。


    再接下来的文章中,我们会使用objdump,readelf,hexdump,nm等来分析一个Linux中可重定位文件SimpleSection.o。


    首先附上SimpleSection.c源代码:

int printf( const char* format, ... );


int global_init_var = 84;
int global_uninit_var;

void func1( int i )
{
	printf( "%d\n", i );
}

int main(void)
{
	static int static_var = 85;
	static int static_var2;

	int a = 1;
	int b;

	func1( static_var + static_var2 + a + b );
		
	return a;
}
    使用命令:

    gcc -c SimpleSection.c

    得到SimpleSection.o,下面我们首先附上SimpleSection.o的二进制内容以及整体轮廓。


    使用命令:

    hexdump -C SimpleSection.o,得到SimpleSection.o的二进制内容。

    计算机科学中,二进制0 1可以代表代码,字母,数字(十进制数和十六进制数)。

                                 图1


    使用命令ls -l SimpleSection.o,可以得到文件大小为1880字节,上面二进制内容正好也是1880个字节(0x758转换为十机制为1880)。


    SimpleSection.o的整体轮廓图如下,可能读者会想为什么会得到这样一张图,随着我们深入分析每个段的内容,答案自然会揭晓。

                                                                     图 2


    我们看到0x758是所有段结束的位置,换算成十进制就是1880个字节。和我们刚才获取的文件大小一样。

   

    下面我们来利用命令来分析ELF文件结构的每个部分:

    1、ELF Header

    使用命令readelf -h SimpleSection.o,得到下图。


                             图 3

    ELF文件头结构及相关参数被定义在“/usr/include/elf.h”中,如下:

typedef struct
{
  unsigned char e_ident[EI_NIDENT];     /* Magic number and other info */
  Elf32_Half    e_type;                 /* Object file type */
  Elf32_Half    e_machine;              /* Architecture */
  Elf32_Word    e_version;              /* Object file version */
  Elf32_Addr    e_entry;                /* Entry point virtual address */
  Elf32_Off     e_phoff;                /* Program header table file offset */
  Elf32_Off     e_shoff;                /* Section header table file offset */
  Elf32_Word    e_flags;                /* Processor-specific flags */
  Elf32_Half    e_ehsize;               /* ELF header size in bytes */
  Elf32_Half    e_phentsize;            /* Program header table entry size */
  Elf32_Half    e_phnum;                /* Program header table entry count */
  Elf32_Half    e_shentsize;            /* Section header table entry size */
  Elf32_Half    e_shnum;                /* Section header table entry count */
  Elf32_Half    e_shstrndx;             /* Section header string table index */
} Elf32_Ehdr;
    Type:ELF文件类型,本例中为REL(Relocatable File),可重定位文件。

    Start of section headers,段表在文件中偏移,就是图2中Section Table的位置为392(0x188)。

    Size of section headers,ELF文件头的大小为64个字节。

    Number of section headers,ELF拥有多少个断,本例为13个段。见图 7。

    Section header string table index,段表字符串表所在的段在段表中的下标。本例中等于10,见图 7。


    2、.text

    使用命令:

    objdump -d SimpleSection.o,得到了下图,由于是代码段,所以二进制代表汇编代码。


                            图 4     

 

    3、.data

    使用命令objdump -s SimpleSection.o,得到数据段,如下图:


                       图 5


    本例中存入数据段的是

int global_init_var = 84;
static int static_var = 85;
    共8个字节,一个是0x00000054,十进制是84;一个是0x0000000056,十进制是85。     


    4、.bss

    使用命令objdump -h SimpleSection.o,得到下图:


                      图 6

    本例中存入数据段的是

static int static_var2;
    大家会注意到int global_uninit_var;既没有在.data段中,也没有在.bss段中。如果在前面加上static,那么则存在.bss段中。


    5、.rodata

    .rodata存放的只读数据。25640a00,查看ASCII表代表的就是%d\n。


    6、.shstrtab(段表字符串表)

    如图1,存放的是

    ..symtab..strtab..shstrtab..rela.text..data..bs..rodata..comment..note.GNU-stak..rela.eh_frame


    7、.strtab(字符串表)

    如图1,存放的是

    SimpleSection.c.static_var.1594.static_var2.1595.global_init_var.global_uninit_var.func1.printf.main


    8、Section Table

    使用命令,readelf -S SimpleSection.o,得到下图:


                           图 7

    这就解释了图1,为什么要那么画。

    Offset表示段偏移,Size表示段大小。

    Type,PROGBITS表示段,NOBITS表示不占空间,.RELA表示重定位段,STRTAB表示字符串表,SYMTAB表示符号表。

    EntSize表示如果段中有重复的内容,则表示重复内容大小。比如下面要介绍的符号表就是重复内容组成的。

    在TYPE为RELA时,Link表示该段所使用的相应符号表在段表中,本例中为11。Info表示该重定位表所作用的段在段表中的下标。.rela.text为1,.rela.eh_frame为8。    


    9、.symtab(符号表)

    使用命令,readelf -s SimpleSection.o,得到下图:


                              图 8

    Name,表示字符串在字符串表中的下标;


    Ndx,SimpleSection.c为ABS,global_uninit_var为COM,表示这个变量是强引用或者弱引用,目前即不在.data段中,也不在.bss段中,等待链接时会确定。

    printf为UND,表示没有定义,即引用了外部的函数。

    global_init_var,NDX为3,表示在.data中,其余类似。表示符号所在的段在段表中的下标;参考图 7。


    Bind GLOBAL表示可以被外部引用或者引用外部的函数和变量。

    TYPE为OBJECT表示对象,FUNC表示函数,SECTION表示段,FILE表示文件,printf为NOTYPE,表示没有定义,是引用外部函数。

    SIZE表示大小。

    Value表示在本段中的偏移,比如static_var.1594表示在.data段中的偏移为4。 main在.data段中的偏移为21。


    最后介绍个命令,nm SimpleSection.o,结果如下:


    可以看出示所有可以被外部引用或者引用外部的函数和变量。

    T表示text;D和d表示data;b表示bss,C表示Common,U表示Undef。


    至此,所有段都分析完了。本文参考程序员的自我修养。
