This is a PA-RISC platform and should be using SOM for 32 bit or ELF for 64 bit. Are you building a 32bit or 64 bit application?
What is the library compiled for?
Do "elfdump" on the library to determine the format of it and post the results.

I am writing a shared library in Linux (but compatible with other UNIXes) and I want to allow multiple instances to share a piece of memory -- 1 byte is enough. What's the "best" way to do this? I want to optimize for speed and portability.
Obviously, I'll have to worry about mutual exclusion. (0 Replies)

elf_errno
ELF_ERRMSG(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ELF_ERRMSG(3)
NAME
elf_errmsg, elf_errno -- ELF library error message handling
LIBRARY
ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libelf.h>
int
elf_errno(void);
const char *
elf_errmsg(int error);
DESCRIPTION
When an error occurs during an ELF library API call, the library encodes the error using an error number and stores the error number inter-
nally for retrieval by the application at a later point of time. Error numbers may contain an OS supplied error code in addition to an ELF
API specific error code. An error number value of zero indicates no error.
Function elf_errno() is used to retrieve the last error recorded by the ELF library. Invoking this function has the side-effect of resetting
the ELF library's recorded error number to zero.
The function elf_errmsg() returns a null-terminated string with a human readable description of the error specified in argument error. A
zero value for argument error retrieves the most recent error encountered by the ELF library. An argument value of -1 behaves identically,
except that it guarantees a non-NULL return from elf_errmsg().
RETURN VALUES
Function elf_errno() returns a non-zero value encoding the last error encountered by the ELF library, or zero if no error was encountered.
Function elf_errmsg() returns a pointer to library local storage for non-zero values of argument error. With a zero argument, the function
will return a NULL pointer if no error had been encountered by the library, or will return a pointer to library local storage containing an
appropriate message otherwise.
EXAMPLES
Clearing the ELF library's recorded error number can be accomplished by invoking elf_errno() and discarding its return value.
/* clear error */
(void) elf_errno();
Retrieving a human-readable description of the current error number can be done with the following snippet:
int err;
const char *errmsg;
...
err = elf_errno();
if (err != 0)
errmsg = elf_errmsg(err);

BUGS
Function elf_errmsg() is not localized.
