dlsym(3)
DLSYM(3) Linux Programmer's Manual DLSYM(3)
NAME
dlsym, dlvsym - obtain address of a symbol in a shared object or exe‐
cutable
SYNOPSIS
#include <dlfcn.h>
void *dlsym(void *handle, const char *symbol);
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <dlfcn.h>
void *dlvsym(void *handle, char *symbol, char *version);
Link with -ldl.
DESCRIPTION
The function dlsym() takes a "handle" of a dynamic loaded shared object
returned by dlopen(3) along with a null-terminated symbol name, and re‐
turns the address where that symbol is loaded into memory. If the sym‐
bol is not found, in the specified object or any of the shared objects
that were automatically loaded by dlopen(3) when that object was
loaded, dlsym() returns NULL. (The search performed by dlsym() is
breadth first through the dependency tree of these shared objects.)
In unusual cases (see NOTES) the value of the symbol could actually be
NULL. Therefore, a NULL return from dlsym() need not indicate an er‐
ror. The correct way to distinguish an error from a symbol whose value
is NULL is to call dlerror(3) to clear any old error conditions, then
call dlsym(), and then call dlerror(3) again, saving its return value
into a variable, and check whether this saved value is not NULL.
There are two special pseudo-handles that may be specified in handle:
RTLD_DEFAULT
Find the first occurrence of the desired symbol using the de‐
fault shared object search order. The search will include
global symbols in the executable and its dependencies, as well
as symbols in shared objects that were dynamically loaded with
the RTLD_GLOBAL flag.
RTLD_NEXT
Find the next occurrence of the desired symbol in the search or‐
der after the current object. This allows one to provide a
wrapper around a function in another shared object, so that, for
example, the definition of a function in a preloaded shared ob‐
ject (see LD_PRELOAD in ld.so(8)) can find and invoke the "real"
function provided in another shared object (or for that matter,
the "next" definition of the function in cases where there are
multiple layers of preloading).
The _GNU_SOURCE feature test macro must be defined in order to obtain
the definitions of RTLD_DEFAULT and RTLD_NEXT from <dlfcn.h>.
The function dlvsym() does the same as dlsym() but takes a version
string as an additional argument.
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the address associated with symbol.
On failure, they return NULL; the cause of the error can be diagnosed
using dlerror(3).
VERSIONS
dlsym() is present in glibc 2.0 and later. dlvsym() first appeared in
glibc 2.1.

CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001 describes dlsym(). The dlvsym() function is a GNU exten‐
sion.
NOTES
The value of a symbol returned by dlsym() will never be NULL if the
shared object is the result of normal compilation, since a global sym‐
bol is never placed at the NULL address. There are nevertheless cases
where a lookup using dlsym() may return NULL as the value of a symbol.
For example, the symbol value may be the result of a GNU indirect func‐
tion (IFUNC) resolver function that returns NULL as the resolved value.
History
The dlsym() function is part of the dlopen API, derived from SunOS.
That system does not have dlvsym().
