🌸 update_note_header_size_elf32(9) 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this one's about a lil function with a big name: update_note_header_size_elf32. It's giving "kernel internals but make it cute," and honestly? We love her for it. 💅

💖 NAME 💖

update_note_header_size_elf32 — updates the p_memsz member of every PT_NOTE entry. Yes, every single one. Periodt. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int update_note_header_size_elf32 (const Elf32_Ehdr *ehdr_ptr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So here's the tea ☕: this function updates the p_memsz member of each PT_NOTE entry in the program header table pointed to by ehdr_ptr, setting it to the real size of the ELF note segment. That's it, that's the function. No cap, she's doing exactly that. ✨
