| Linkable Loadable Extensions (LLEXT) |
| #################################### |
| |
| The llext subsystem provides a toolbox for extending the functionality of an |
| application at runtime with linkable loadable code. |
| |
| Extensions can be loaded from precompiled ELF formatted data which is |
| verified, loaded, and linked with other extensions. Extensions can be |
| manipulated and introspected to some degree, as well as unloaded when no longer |
| needed. |
| |
| An extension may be loaded using any implementation of a :c:struct:`llext_loader` |
| which has a set of function pointers that provide the necessary functionality |
| to read the ELF data. A loader also provides some minimal context (memory) |
| needed by the :c:func:`llext_load` function. An implementation over a buffer |
| containing an ELF in addressable memory in memory is available as |
| :c:struct:`llext_buf_loader`. |
