4 * DSP-BIOS Bridge driver support functions for TI OMAP processors.
5 *
6 * This file provides an API add-on to the dynamic loader that allows the user
7 * to query section information and extract section data from dynamic load
8 * modules.
9 *
10 * Notes:
11 * Functions in this API assume that the supplied dynamic_loader_stream
12 * object supports the set_file_posn method.

31 * Procedure dload_module_open
32 *
33 * Parameters:
34 * module The input stream that supplies the module image
35 * syms Host-side malloc/free and error reporting functions.
36 * Other methods are unused.
37 *
38 * Effect:
39 * Reads header information from a dynamic loader module using the specified
40 * stream object, and returns a handle for the module information. This
41 * handle may be used in subsequent query calls to obtain information
42 * contained in the module.
43 *
44 * Returns:
45 * NULL if an error is encountered, otherwise a module handle for use
46 * in subsequent operations.
