elf-parser

A lightweight parser written in Rust that reads the data of the ELF file and generates the layout of the corresponding user stack and other data structures according to the given user parameters and environment variables.

Examples

let args: Vec<String> = vec![1, 2, 3];
let envs: Vec<String> = vec!["LOG=file"];
let auxv: BTreeMap<u8, usize> = BTreeMap::new();

// The top of the user stack
let stack_top = uspace.end() - stack_size;

let (stack_data, stack_bottom) = elf_parser::get_app_stack_region(
    args,
    &envs,
    auxv,
    stack_top,
    stack_size,
);

uspace.map_alloc(stack_top, stack_size, MappingFlags::READ | MappingFlags::WRITE | MappingFlags::USER)?;

unsafe {
    core::ptr::copy_nonoverlapping(
        stack_data.as_ptr(),
        phys_to_virt(stack_top).as_mut_ptr(),
        stack_data.len(),
    );
}

// The stack_bottom is the real stack pointer after inserting some auxiliary data on the user stack.
ucontext.sp = stack_bottom;
