+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B elf_hash
+function computes the standard ELF hash value for a null-terminated
+string. The hash values are typically used in ELF object files for
+symbol table hashing. The hash function avoids generating
+architecture-dependent values and is suitable for use across architectures.
+
+.SH PARAMETERS
+.TP
+.I string
+NULL-terminated string to be hashed.
+
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+This function returns the standard ELF hash value for
+.IR string .
