The problem is the process of writing a file header offset of the section header table into e_shoff field of the ELF header. ELF header is positioned at the beginning of the corefile, while section header at the end. So, we need to take which of the following ways: 1. Seek backward to retry writing operation for ELF header after writing process for a whole part 2. Make offset calculation process and writing process totally sequential The clause 1. is not always possible: one cannot assume that file system supports seek function. Consider the no_llseek case. Therefore, this patch adopts the clause 2.
