28/* Define an ELF note identifying the operating-system ABI that the
29 executable was created for. The ELF note information identifies a
30 particular OS or coordinated development effort within which the
31 ELF header's e_machine value plus (for dynamically linked programs)
32 the PT_INTERP dynamic linker name and DT_NEEDED shared library
33 names fully identify the runtime environment required by an
34 executable.

36 The general format of ELF notes is as follows.
37 Offsets and lengths are bytes or (parenthetical references) to the
38 values in other fields.

48 The GNU project and cooperating development efforts (including the
49 Linux community) use note type 1 and a vendor name string of "GNU"
50 for a note descriptor that indicates ABI requirements. The note data
51 is four 32-bit words. The first of these is an operating system
de71a46a 52 number (0=Linux, 1=Hurd, 2=Solaris, ...) and the remaining three
