Hello!
I am looking to see if I can replicate LD_PRELOAD using la_symbind in
the rltd-audit API.
I would like to provide the audit API a: symbol -> shared object file
(perhaps with offset) and have the audit API override it.
Is this possible?
I am thinking perhaps I can dlopen the file in the audit method and
then use dlsym as well.
(Hopefully this question makes sense and appreciate any advice)

It's possible to use la_symbind to alter some symbol bindings. Where
the replacement symbol address comes from does not matter.
You may have to use dlmopen, to inject the shared object into the main
namespace, not the auditor namespace. You probably have to open the
shared object before the la_symbind callback happens.
Be sure to use a recent glibc versions (2.34 and later) because many
bugs in auditor support have been fixed.
Thanks,
Florian
