The e_shstrndx member in an ELF header holds the section table index of the string table. The pro-
gram gets a section descriptor for that section, verifies it is a string table, and then retrieves the data.
When this fragment finishes, data->d_buf points at the first byte of the string table, and data-
>d_size
holds the string table’s size in bytes.
