Module mach

The Mach-o, mostly zero-copy, binary format parser and raw struct definitions

Re-exports

• pub use self::constants::cputype;

Modules

• bind_opcodes
  Bind opcodes are interpreted by the dynamic linker to efficiently collect every symbol imported by this binary, and from which library using two-level namespacing
• constants
  Miscellaneous constants used inside of and when constructing, Mach-o binaries
• exports
  Symbols exported by this binary and available for dynamic linking are encoded in mach-o binaries using a special trie
• fat
  A Mach-o fat binary is a multi-architecture binary container
• header
  A header contains minimal architecture information, the binary kind, the number of load commands, as well as an endianness hint
• imports
  Dynamically linked symbolic imports
• load_command
  Load commands tell the kernel and dynamic linker anything from how to load this binary into memory, what the entry point is, apple specific information, to which libraries it requires for dynamic linking
• relocation
• segment
• symbols
  “Nlist” style symbols in this binary - beware, like most symbol tables in most binary formats, they are strippable, and should not be relied upon, see the imports and exports modules for something more permanent.

Structs

• FatArchIterator
  Iterator over the fat architecture headers in a MultiArch container
• MachO
  A cross-platform, zero-copy, endian-aware, 32/64 bit Mach-o binary parser
• MultiArch
  A Mach-o multi architecture (Fat) binary container
• SingleArchIterator
  Iterator over every entry contained in this MultiArch container

Enums

• Mach
  Either a collection of multiple architectures, or a single mach-o binary
• SingleArch
  A single architecture froma multi architecture binary container (MultiArch).

Functions

• parse_magic_and_ctx
  Parses a magic number, and an accompanying mach-o binary parsing context, according to the magic number.
• peek
  Returns a big endian magical number
• peek_bytes
