Andrew Kaster 767f4c7421 LibELF+LibC: Split ELFDynamicObject into a Loader + Object
Separate some responsibilities:

ELFDynamicLoader is responsible for loading elf binaries from disk and
performing relocations, calling init functions, and eventually calling
finalizer functions.

ELFDynamicObject is a helper class to parse the .dynamic section of an
elf binary, or the table of Elf32_Dyn entries at the _DYNAMIC symbol.
ELFDynamicObject now owns the helper classes for Relocations, Symbols,
Sections and the like that ELFDynamicLoader will use to perform
relocations and symbol lookup.

Because these new helpers are constructed from offsets into the .dynamic
section within the loaded .data section of the binary, we don't need the
ELFImage for nearly as much of the loading processes as we did before.
Therefore we can remove most of the extra DynamicXXX classes and just
keep the one that lets us find the location of _DYNAMIC in the new ELF.

And finally, since we changed the name of the class that dlopen/dlsym
care about, we need to compile/link and use the new ELFDynamicLoader
class in LibC.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Travis CI status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by me, for me, based on the things I like.

If you like some of the same things, you are welcome to join the project. It would be great to one day change the above to say "this is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like." :^)

I regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
