PT_NOTE section in the ELF header

by prix prad <maalage@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 25, 2008 at 11:05 AM

Hi All,
         I was looking through the below link:

http://www.netbsd.org/docs/kernel/elf-notes.html

I was confused as to why we have something linke 1f - 0f, 3f - 2f:
****************************************************************************************************************
    .long 1f - 0f           # name size (not including padding)
    .long 3f - 2f           # desc size (not including padding)
****************************************************************************************************************

Why can't this be simply .long 1f
                                     .long 1f ? I am assuming you just
have to subtract 3f - 2f = 1f.

Could someone please explain me this?

Regards,
/prix prad
