elf_program_header_table contains type, functions and other definitions * for working with program header tables and their entries and ELF segments. * Related files are elf_interpreted_segments which extracts information * derived from PHTs presented in this file and converts it into a more usable * format for processing. * * FIXME: * Bug in Lem as Lem codebase uses int type throughout where BigInt.t * is really needed, hence chokes on huge constants below, which is why they are * written in the way that they are.

val elf_pf_maskproc : Nat_big_num.num
val exact_permissions_of_permission : Nat_big_num.num -> Nat_big_num.num Error.error

exact_permission_of_permission m: ELF has two interpretations of a RWX-style * permission bit m, an exact permission and an allowable permission. These * permissions allow us to interpret a flag as an upper bound for behaviour and * an ABI-compliant implementation can choose to interpret the flag m as either. * * In the exact interpretation, the upper bound is exactly the natural interpretation * of the flag. This is encoded in exact_permission_of_permission, which is * a glorified identity function, though included for completeness.

val allowable_permissions_of_permission : Nat_big_num.num -> Nat_big_num.num Error.error

allowable_permission_of_permission m: ELF has two interpretations of a RWX-style * permission bit m, an exact permission and an allowable permission. These * permissions allow us to interpret a flag as an upper bound for behaviour and * an ABI-compliant implementation can choose to interpret the flag m as either. * * In the allowable interpretation, the upper bound is more lax than the natural * interpretation of the flag.

val parse_elf_segment_permissions : Nat_big_num.num -> bool * bool * bool

elf64_interpreted_program_header_flags w extracts a boolean triple of flags * from the flags field of an interpreted segment.

val string_of_elf_segment_permissions : Nat_big_num.num -> string
