Highlights: - Make sure that only TLS sections are sorted into TLS segment. - Fixed multiple errors in "Section to Segment mapping". - Man page updates - ar improvements - elfcopy: avoid filter_reloc uninitialized variable for rela - elfcopy: avoid stripping relocations from static binaries - readelf: avoid printing directory in front of absolute path - readelf: add NT_FREEBSD_FEATURE_CTL FreeBSD note type - test improvements NOTES: Some of these changes originated in FreeBSD and simply reduce diffs between contrib and vendor. ELF Tool Chain ar is not (currently) used in FreeBSD, and there are improvements in both FreeBSD and ELF Tool Chain ar that are not in the other. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation

|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is used to manipulate comment sections in an ELF object.
|
|
If a command-line argument
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
names an
|
|
.Xr ar 1
|
|
archive, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will operate on the ELF objects contained in the archive.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default
|
|
.Nm
|
|
operates on the ELF section named
|
|
.Dq .comment .
|
|
This may be changed using the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
option.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility supports the following options:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl a Ar string"
|
|
.It Fl a Ar string
|
|
Append the text in
|
|
.Ar string
|
|
to the comment section.
|
|
This option may be specified multiple times.
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Compress the comment section by removing duplicate entries.
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Delete the comment section from the ELF object.
|
|
.It Fl h | Fl -help
|
|
Display a usage message and exit.
|
|
.It Fl n Ar name
|
|
Operate on the section named
|
|
.Ar name .
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Print the contents of the comment section.
|
|
This step is taken after actions specified by the
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
options (if any) are completed.
|
|
.It Fl V | Fl -version
|
|
Print a version identifier and exit.

.Sh COMPATIBILITY
|
|
The behavior of the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility differs from its SVR4 counterpart in the following ways:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl d
|
|
option is specified, it causes any
|
|
.Fl a ,
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl p
|
|
options present to be ignored.
|
|

The order of options
|
|
.Fl a ,
|
|
.Fl c ,
|
|
.Fl d ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl p
