Hello,
I would like to know what represents the addresses found in objdump of a
binary? Are these the address where the file will be eventually mapped
to? or are these addresses the organization inside the binary file?
When a file is executed the address space assigned to it is equal from
process to process, is this information contained in the binary file or
it is generated/assigned by the operational system?
In general terms, what does a ELF executable file contain? anyone can
point to a website with a graphical view of this format?
Thanks,
