# segment.h

Definitions needed to parse the elf program/segment headers.

# `elf_segment_type_E` - enum
- **Null** - Unused segment
- **Load** - Segment that should be included into mappings
- **Dynamic** - Segments of this type contain dynamic linking information
- **Interpreter** - This holds a path to an interpreter
- **Note** - These segments hold notes by the compiler / toolchain
- **Program Header Table** - This points to the table that is holding the segment headers
- **TLS** - This holds a Thread Local Storage template

|------------------|----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
| type             | uint32_t | The segments type -> elf_segment_type_E                         |
| flags            | uint32_t | The segments flags (Read / Write / Execute)                     |
| offset           | uint64_t | The segments position in the elf file                           |
| address_virtual  | uint64_t | Where the segment should be mapped in the virtual address space |
| address_physical | uint64_t | Not used in the `System V` ABI                                  |
| length_file      | uint64_t | The segments size in the file                                   |
| length_memory    | uint64_t | The size of the area that should be mapped for the segment      |
| align            | uint64_t | The segments alignment (has to be a power of 2)                 |

# `g_elf_segment_type_strings` - global variable
