'''[[ELF''']] ('''[[ELF|Executable and Linkable Format''']]) is ana file format designed by Unix System Laboratories while working with Sun Microsystems on SVR4 (UNIX System V Release 4.0). Consequently, ELF first appeared in Solaris 2.0 (aka SunOS 5.0), which is based on SVR4. The format is specified in the [[System V ABI]].
 
A very versatile file format, it was later picked up by many other operating systems for use as both executable files and as shared library files. It does distinguish between TEXT, DATA and BSS.
