Ddpi_Elf loading API

The Ddpi_Elf loading API loads and relocates the ELF object file.

Description

When a compilation unit (CU) is loaded into memory, the relative (logical) addresses stored within the object file are mapped to physical addresses.

Description

The program analysis application must explicitly load the corresponding ELF object file. At that time, the physical addresses within the ELF object file are relocated in memory to correspond to the physical addresses of the CU information. The Ddpi_Elf object holds the information required to relocate these addresses.
