LD ( 1 )
LD (1)
-5 Strip line number entries and symbol table information
from the output object file.
-t Turn off the warning about multiply-defined symbols that
are not the same size.
-u symname
Enter symname as an undefined symbol in the symbol
table. This is useful for loading entirely from a library,
since initially the symbol table is empty and an
unresolved reference is needed to force the loading of the
first routine.
�
-x Do not preserve local (non-.global) symbols in the output
symbol table; only enter external and static symbols.
This option saves some space in the output file.
-Z Do not bind anything to address zero. This option will
allow runtime detection of null pointers.
-L dir Change the algorithm of searching for libx .a to look in
dir before looking in /lib.
-M Output a message for each multiply-defined external
definition. However, if the objects being loaded include
debugging information, extraneous output is produced (see
the -g option in cc(1)).
-N Put the data section immediately following the text in the
output file. The result is a plain executable file, indicated
by magic number 0407 in the operating system header.
-n Put the data section at the next segment boundary following
the text section. The result is a shared text file, indicated
by magic number 0410 in the operating system
header.
-z Like -n but permits demand paged execution. This type
of file is indicated by magic number 0413 in the operating
system header.
-F Like -z but takes less disk space and can page faster into
memory. This type is also indicated by magic number
0413 in the operating system header. It is distinguished
by having virtual text and data starting addresses that
are equal to the file offsets of the text and data sections,
modulo 4096. The -F option is on by default.
-V Output a message giving information about the version of
ld being used.
-VS num
Use num as a decimal version number identifying the
a.out file that is produced. The version stamp is stored
in the optional header.
-G Change the symbol name look-up algorithm as follows: if
two names do not initially match, then if one of them is
exactly eight characters, then a match is attempted only
on the first eight characters. The purpose of this is to
- 2-
