NAME

ldr_next_module − Return the next module ID for a process

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <loader.h> int ldr_next_module(
        ldr_process_t process,
        ldr_module_t ∗mod_id_ptr );

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc)

PARAMETERS

process
Specifies the process for which the next module ID is required.

mod_id_ptr
Points to a buffer in which the module ID of a loaded module will be returned.

DESCRIPTION

The ldr_next_module() function returns the next module ID for the specified process, given a specified module ID. It iterates through the module IDs of all modules currently loaded in a specified process. 

To get the first module ID for the process, specify LDR_NULL_MODULE for the initial module ID. Repeated calls to the ldr_next_module() function will return all the module IDs for the process. The function returns LDR_NULL_MODULE after returning the last module ID. 

To obtain the unique identifier for the current process, use the following call:

ldr_process_t ldr_my_procesd();

To obtain the unique identifier for the kernel, use the following call:

ldr_process_t ldr_kernel_process();

To return the IDs for kernel modules, specify the returned identifier for the process parameter. 

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, the function returns a value of 0 (zero).  If the operation fails, the function returns a negative value and errno is set to indicate the error. 

ERRORS

If the ldr_next_module() function fails, errno may be set to the following value:

[EINVAL]
The module ID specified by mod_id_ptr is not valid.
