ELF64_GETEHDR(3)          Libelf Programmer's Manual          ELF64_GETEHDR(3)

NAME
       elf64_getehdr - retrieve the ELF header for a 64-bit ELF descriptor


SYNOPSIS
       #include <libelf.h>

       Elf64_Ehdr *elf64_getehdr(Elf *elf);


DESCRIPTION
       elf64_getehdr retrieves the ELF header for the given 64-bit ELF
       descriptor elf.  The ELF header contains crucial metadata about the ELF
       file, such as the type, machine, version, entry point, program header
       table offset, and section header table offset. See elf(5) for more
       information regarding the ELF header.


PARAMETERS
       elf    Pointer to the ELF descriptor from which to retrieve the ELF
              header.


RETURN VALUE
       On success, elf64_getehdr returns a pointer to the Elf64_Ehdr
       structure. If the ELF descriptor is invalid or not a 64-bit ELF, it
       returns NULL and sets an error code retrievable by elf_errno(3).
