372de3b87aSKai Wang.Fn elf_fill "int fill"
382de3b87aSKai Wang.Sh DESCRIPTION
392de3b87aSKai WangFunction
402de3b87aSKai Wang.Fn elf_fill
412de3b87aSKai Wangallows an application to specify a fill value for the padding inserted
422de3b87aSKai Wangbetween two sections of an ELF file to meet section alignment
432de3b87aSKai Wangconstraints.
442de3b87aSKai WangBy default the ELF library uses zero bytes for padding.
452de3b87aSKai Wang.Pp
462de3b87aSKai WangThe ELF library will only pad bytes if the
472de3b87aSKai Wang.Dv ELF_F_LAYOUT
482de3b87aSKai Wangflag is not set for the ELF file.
