dlinfo function on Solaris

[Ajay Bansal]

Hi All

I have used a function dlinfo on Solaris. But I am not able to find any
cooresponding implemention on Linux AS 2.1. basicall, man page of dlinfo
says following (on solaris)

----------------------------------------------------------
NAME
     dlinfo - dynamic load information
SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag ... ] file ... -ldl [ library ... ]
     #include <dlfcn.h>
     #include <link.h>
     #include <limits.h>
     int dlinfo(void *handle, int request, void *p); DESCRIPTION
     The  dlinfo()  function   extracts   information   about   a
dynamically-loaded  object. This function is loosely modeled      after the
ioctl() function. The request argument and a third      argument of varying
type are passed to dlinfo().  The action      taken by dlinfo() depends on
the value of the  request  pro-vided.
     A  handle  argument,  required  for  all   requests   except
RTLD_DI_CONFIGADDR, is either the value returned from a dlo-pen() or
dlmopen() call, or the special handle RTLD_SELF. If handle  is  the  value
returned from a dlopen() or dlmopen() call, the information returned by the
dlinfo() call pertains
 to  the  specified  object.  If handle is the special handle RTLD_SELF, the
information returned  by  the  dlinfo()  call pertains to the caller itself.

----------------------------------------------------------

We are using dlinfo for fething the file name of the specified llibrary.

can somebody pls tell me, what should I do on Linux for the same?

Regards
Ajay

dlinfo was added to glibc on 2003-03-15, so you can try that in current
Severn/Taroon/Rawhide glibcs.

There is also dl_iterate_phdrs to list all currently loaded libraries.
