            Bug ID: 94141
           Summary: man page for dl_iterate_phdr() does not mention
                    current-executable-first iteration pattern
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
          Reporter: sque-F7+t8E8rja9g9hUCZPvPmw@public.gmane.org
        Regression: No

When I was using dl_iterate_phdr(), I noticed that the currently running
executable wasn't showing up by name. And the first object visited by the
iteration was unnamed.

According to this Stack Overflow page, the first object will always be the
current executable:

But I didn't find any mention of this behavior in the official documentation:
http://linux.die.net/man/3/dl_iterate_phdr
