ELF Hello World Tutorial / Index 0 section Updated +Created
Contained in bytes 0x40 to 0x7F.
If the number of sections is greater than or equal to SHN_LORESERVE (0xff00), e_shnum has the value SHN_UNDEF (0) and the actual number of section header table entries is contained in the sh_size field of the section header at index 0 (otherwise, the sh_size member of the initial entry contains 0).
There are also other magic sections detailed in Figure 4-7: Special Section Indexes.

Git tips / The key to solve conflicts: see the two conflicting diffs Updated +Created
The key to solve conflicts is:
You have to understand what are the two commits that touched a given line (one from master, one from features), and then combine them somehow.
Or in other words, at every rebase conflict we have something like:
master-commit    feature-commit
|                |
|                |
base-commit------+
|
|
Therefore there are 2 diffs that you have to understand and reconcile:
  • base-commit to master-commit
  • base-commit to feature-commit

ELF Hello World Tutorial / Specified file formats Updated +Created
The ELF standard specifies multiple file formats:
  • Object files (.o).
    Intermediate step to generating executables and other formats:
    Source code
    
        |
        | Compilation
        |
        v
    
    Object file
    
        |
        | Linking
        |
        v
    
    Executable
    Object files exist to make compilation faster: with make, we only have to recompile the modified source files based on timestamps.
    We have to do the linking step every time, but it is much less expensive.
  • Executable files (no standard Linux extension).
    This is what the Linux kernel can actually run.
  • Shared object files (.so).
    Libraries meant to be loaded when the executable starts running.
  • Core dumps.
    Such files may be generated by the Linux kernel when the program does naughty things, e.g. segfault.
    They exist to help debugging the program.
In this tutorial, we consider only object and executable files.

This is likely the easiest one to produce as the frequencies are lower, which is why it was discovered first. TODO original setup.
Also because it is transparent to brick and glass, (though not metal) it becomes good for telecommunication.
