41 retrieves the section index of the string table containing section
44 and stores it into the location pointed to by argument
47 This function allow applications to process both normal ELF
48 objects and ELF objects that use extended section numbering uniformly.
51 These functions return zero if successful, or -1 in case of an error.
53 These functions can fail with the following errors:
