Type of Executables on HP-UX

There are 3 magic numbers that can be used for a 32-bit

executable (11.00 and greater).

/usr/bin/chatr labels the following type of executables in output

• SHARE_MAGIC: shared executable

• EXEC_MAGIC: normal executable

• SHMEM_MAGIC: normal SHMEM_MAGIC executable

For 64 bit (11.00 and greater) executables, there is currently no

need to have different magic numbers available as the standard

one allows up to 4TB for the program text, another 4TB for its

private data and a total of 8TB for shared areas.
