Question

I’m working on a linux system. I know how to use nm and other gnu binutils, but I want to know if there is a better way to resolve function addresses using python. I don’t want to have to parse a text response from a system call if there is a better way.

Answer 1

If you want to call the function with type related, use ctypes. Or if you want to cal it dynamicaly without any types, use dl

import dl
dl.open("/lib/libc.so.6").call("time")

If you want to get symbol of function, use sym.
