ELF Package and Dlopen Notes Reference Implementation
## Description
This repository provides RPM and DEB packaging tools to generate an
`.note.package` ELF note that will be linked into compiled binaries (programs
and shared libraries) to provide metadata about the package for which the
binary was compiled.
See [Package Metadata for Core Files](https://systemd.io/ELF_PACKAGE_METADATA/)
for the overview and details.
When building binaries, the `--package-metadata` option provided by
`bfd`, `gold`, `mold`, and `lld` shall be used to inject the metadata
into the binary.
### Displaying package notes
Raw:
```console
$ objdump -j .note.package -s /usr/bin/ls
/usr/bin/ls: file format elf64-x86-64
Contents of section .note.package:
03cc 04000000 7c000000 7e1afeca 46444f00 ....|...~...FDO.

## `dlopen()` metadata
This package also provides scripts to extract and display
`.note.dlopen` ELF notes that are used to describe libraries loaded via `dlopen(3)`.
See [`dlopen()` Metadata for ELF Files](https://systemd.io/ELF_DLOPEN_METADATA/)
for the overview and details.
### Displaying `dlopen()` notes
Raw:
```console
$ objdump -j .note.dlopen -s /usr/lib64/systemd/libsystemd-shared-257.so
