BANG! BANG! BANG! Put these bits out of their misery.
Murdered by members of: a.out.die.die.die
ELF is the 1 true path now. So make good on the src/Makefile threat that
building a.out will not be supported post 4.x. These bits should either
resurface as a port, or a new port using the latest Binutils bits. The
later will not support our SunOS-style shared a.out libs; but we shouldn't
need such support by this point in time.

The output object file is either an executable program, a -shared object suitable for loading at run-time, or an object file that can -once again be processed by -.Nm . -Object files and archives are processed in the order given on the command line. -.Pp -The options are as follows: -.Pp -.Bl -tag -width indent -.It Fl A Ar symbol-file -The the symbol-file is taken as a base for link-editing the object files -on the command line. -.It Fl assert Ar keyword -This option is here mainly for compatibility with SunOS -.Nm . -Most conditions which would cause a Sun assertion to fail will -currently always cause error or warning messages from -.Nm . -The only keyword implemented by -.Nm -is -.Nm pure-text , -which generates a warning if a position independent object is being -created and some of the files being linked are not position -independent. -.It Fl B Ns Ar dynamic -Specifies that linking against dynamic libraries can take place. If a library -specifier of the form -lx appears on the command line, -.Nm -searches for a library of the from libx.so.n.m -(see the -.Fl l -option) -according to the search rules in effect. If such a file cannot be -found a traditional archive is looked for. -This options can appear anywhere on the command line and is complementary -to -.Fl B Ns Ar static . -.It Fl B Ns Ar forcedynamic -This is similar to -.Fl B Ns Ar dynamic -except that if no dynamic libraries are linked against, -.Nm -will still produce a dynamic executable. This is useful for programs -which are static but still need to load dynamic objects at runtime. -.It Fl B Ns Ar static -The counterpart of -.Fl B Ns Ar dynamic . -This option turns off dynamic linking for -all library specifiers until a -.Fl B Ns Ar dynamic -is once again given. Any explicitly -mentioned shared object encountered on the command line while this option is -in effect is flagged as an error. -.It Fl B Ns Ar shareable -Instructs the linker to build a shared object from the object files rather -than a normal executable image. -.It Fl B Ns Ar symbolic -This option causes all symbolic references in the output to be resolved in -this link-edit session. The only remaining run-time relocation requirements are -.Em base-relative -relocations, ie. translation with respect to the load address. Failure to -resolve any symbolic reference causes an error to be reported. -.It Fl B Ns Ar forcearchive -Force all members of archives to be loaded, whether or not such members -contribute a definition to any plain object files. Useful for making a -shared library from an archive of PIC objects without having to unpack -the archive. -.It Fl B Ns Ar silly -Search for -.Em \.sa -silly archive companions of shared objects. Useful for compatibility with -version 3 shared objects. -.It Fl D Ar data-size -Set the size of the data segment. For sanity's sake, this should be larger -than the cumulative data sizes of the input files. -.It Fl d Ar c -Force allocation of commons even producing relocatable output. -.It Fl d Ar p -Force alias definitions of procedure calls in non-PIC code. Useful to -obtain shareable code in the presence of run-time relocations as such -calls will be re-directed through the Procedure Linkage Table (see -.Xr link 5 ) -.It Fl e Ar entry-symbol -Specifies the entry symbol for an executable. -.It Fl f -List the resolved paths of all the object files and libraries on the -standard output, and exit. -.It Fl L Ns Ar path -Add -.Ar path -to the list of directories to search for libraries specified with the -.Fl l -option. -.It Fl l Ns Ar lib-spec -This option specifies a library to be considered for inclusion in the -output. If the -.Fl B Ns Ar dynamic -option is in effect, a shared library of the -form lib<spec>.so.m.n -(where -.Em m -is the major, and -.Em n -is the minor version number, respectively) -is searched for first. The -library with the highest version found in the search path is selected. -If no shared library is found or the -.Fl B Ns Ar static -options is in effect, an archive of the form lib<spec>.a is looked for in -the library search path. -.It Fl M -Produce output about the mapping of segments of the input files and the -values assigned to -(global) -symbols in the output file. -.It Fl N -Produce a -.Dv OMAGIC -output file. -.It Fl n -Produce a -.Dv NMAGIC -output file. -.It Fl nostdlib -Do not search the built-in path -(usually -.Dq /usr/lib ) -for -.Fl l -specified libraries. -.It Fl O Ar filename -Specifies the name of the output file. -The file is created as -.Ar filename Ns Pa .tmp -and when output is complete renamed to -.Ar filename . -.It Fl o Ar filename -Specifies the name of the output file. Defaults to -.Dq Pa a.out . -.It Fl Q -Produce a -.Dv QMAGIC -.Pq Fx , Bsx Ns -i386 -output file. This is the default. -.It Fl r -Produce relocatable object file, suitable for another pass through -.Nm . -.It Fl R -Record the given path within the executable for run-time library search. -This only applies to dynamically linked executables. -.It Fl S -Strip all debugger symbols from the output. -.It Fl s -Strip all symbols from the output. -.It Fl T -Specifies the start address of the text segment, with respect to which -all input files will be relocated. -.It Fl t -Leave a trace of the input files as they are processed. -.It Fl u Ar symbol -Force -.Ar symbol -to be marked as undefined. Useful to force loading of an archive member -in the absence of any other references to that member. -.It Fl V Ar version -Put the given version number into the output shared library -(if one is created). -Useful to make shared libraries compatible with other operating -systems. E.g., SunOS 4.x libraries use version number 3. Defaults to 8. -.It Fl X -Discard local symbols in the input files that start with the letter -.Dq L -.It Fl x -Discard all local symbols in the input files. -.It Fl y Ar symbol -Trace the manipulations inflicted on -.Ar symbol -.It Fl Z -Make a -.Bx 386 -.Dv ZMAGIC -output file. -.It Fl z -Make a -.Nx -.Dv ZMAGIC -output file. -.El -.Sh ENVIRONMENT -.Nm -utilizes the following environment variables: -.Bl -tag -width "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" -.It Ev LD_LIBRARY_PATH -This colon-separated list of directories is inserted into the search -path for libraries following any directories specified via -.Fl L -options and preceding the built-in path. -.\" .It Ev LD_NOSTD_PATH -.\" When set, do not search the built-in path for libraries. -.\" This is an alternative to the -.\" .Fl nostdlib -.\" command-line flag. -.El -.Sh FILES -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr ldd 1 , -.Xr rtld 1 , -.Xr link 5 , -.Xr ldconfig 8 -.Sh CAVEATS -An entry point must now explicitly be given if the output is intended to be -a normal executable program. This was not the case for the previous version of -.Nm . -.Sh BUGS -Shared objects are not properly checked for undefined symbols. -.Pp -Cascading of shared object defeats the -.Dq -Bstatic -option. -.Pp -All shared objects presented to -.Nm -are marked for run-time loading in the output file, even if no symbols -are needed from them. -.Sh HISTORY -A -.Nm -command appeared in -.At v1 . -The shared library model employed by -.Nm -appeared first in SunOS 4.0 |
