NAME

       dlopen-notes.py

SYNOPSIS

       dlopen-notes.py [-r] [-s] [-f [FEATURE1,FEATURE2]] [-h] filename [filename ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Read .note.dlopen notes from ELF files and report the contents.

       ELF  binaries  store link-time dependencies in their headers, which can be parsed by various tools. There
       is no machine-readable metadata about dependencies loaded  at  build  time  via  dlopen(3)  available  by
       default.  The  ELF  Dlopen  Metadata specification aims to fill this gap by defining a common format. See
       https://systemd.io/ELF_DLOPEN_METADATA/.

       This tool allows parsing such a note, and printing out the result in various formats.
