The semantics of a * link editor symbol is that it is defined by the link editor only if it is * referenced and it is an error for the user to define them (see the man page * ld(1)). The standard UNIX link editor symbols: __end, __etext and __edata * are not not supported by the Apple Mach-O link editor. These symbols are * really not meaningful in a Mach-O object file and the link editor symbols * that are supported (described here) replace them. In the case of the * standard UNIX link editor symbols the program can use the symbol * __mh_execute_header and walk the load commands of it's program to determine * the ending (or beginning) of any section or segment in the program. Note * that the compiler prepends an underbar to all external symbol names coded * in a high level language. Thus in 'C' names are coded without an underbar * and symbol names in the symbol table have an underbar. There are two cpp * macros for each link editor defined name in this file. The macro with a * leading underbar is the symbol name and the one without is the name as * coded in 'C'. */ /* * The value of the link editor defined symbol _MH_EXECUTE_SYM is the address * of the mach header in a Mach-O executable file type.
