The kind of a section.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

This enum is marked as non-exhaustive
Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Unknown

The section kind is unknown.

Text

An executable code section.

Example ELF sections: .text

Example Mach-O sections: __TEXT/__text

Data

A data section.

Example ELF sections: .data

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__data

ReadOnlyData

A read only data section.

Example ELF sections: .rodata

Example Mach-O sections: __TEXT/__const, __DATA/__const, __TEXT/__literal4

ReadOnlyString

A loadable string section.

Example ELF sections: .rodata.str

Example Mach-O sections: __TEXT/__cstring

UninitializedData

An uninitialized data section.

Example ELF sections: .bss

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__bss

Common

An uninitialized common data section.

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__common

Tls

A TLS data section.

Example ELF sections: .tdata

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__thread_data

UninitializedTls

An uninitialized TLS data section.

Example ELF sections: .tbss

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__thread_bss

TlsVariables

A TLS variables section.

This contains TLS variable structures, rather than the variable initializers.

Example Mach-O sections: __DATA/__thread_vars

OtherString

A non-loadable string section.

Example ELF sections: .comment, .debug_str

Other

Some other non-loadable section.

Example ELF sections: .debug_info

Debug

Debug information.

Example Mach-O sections: __DWARF/__debug_info

Linker

Information for the linker.

Example COFF sections: .drectve

Note

ELF note section.

Metadata

Metadata such as symbols or relocations.

Example ELF sections: .symtab, .strtab, .group

Elf(u32)

Some other ELF section type.

This is the sh_type field in the section header. The meaning may be dependent on the architecture.
