NAME

       elf32_getshdr,  elf64_getshdr  - retrieve the section header for a section in 32-bit or 64-bit ELF object
       file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libelf.h>

       Elf32_Shdr *elf32_getshdr(Elf_Scn *scn);
       Elf64_Shdr *elf64_getshdr(Elf_Scn *scn);

DESCRIPTION

       Retrieve the section header for the section referred to by scn.   If  the  retrieved  section  header  is
       modified,  elf_flagshdr  must  be  called  with  ELF_C_SET and ELF_F_DIRTY in order to write the modified
       section header to disk.

PARAMETERS

       scn    The section descriptor whose section header is to be retrieved.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, return a pointer to the section header.  If scn is NULL then NULL will be  returned.   If  an
       error occurs, return NULL and set a libelf error code.
