Would it make sense to load all ELF sections?
This seems a bit odd, because in general an ELF loader should not care at all about sections and the section header. It should only need to look at the program header, which defines which segments to load. If the guest binary needs some things to be loaded then I would expect that it is the job of the linker that produces the guest binary to make sure those things are in segments which are marked as LOAD. thanks -- PMM
