NAME
elf_getbase - get the base offset for an object file
SYNOPSIS
[flag... ] file... [library] ...
DESCRIPTION
returns the file offset of the first byte of the file or archive member associated with elf, if it is known or obtainable, and -1 other-
wise. A null elf is allowed, to simplify error handling; the return value in this case is -1. The base offset of an archive member is the
beginning of the member's information, not the beginning of the archive member header.
