|
|
The

|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility supports the following options:

|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl d | Fl g | Fl S | Fl -strip-debug
|
|
Remove debugging symbols only.
|

.It Fl h | Fl -help
|
|
Print a help message and exit.
|
|
.It Fl -only-keep-debug
|
|
Remove all content except that which would be used for debugging.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar outputfile | Fl -output-file= Ns Ar outputfile
|
|
Write the stripped object to file
|
|
.Ar outputfile .
|
|
The default behaviour is to modify objects in place.
|
|
.It Fl p | Fl -preserve-dates
|
|
Preserve the object's access and modification times.
|
|
.It Fl s | Fl -strip-all
|
|
Remove all symbols.
|
|
.It Fl -strip-unneeded
|
|
Remove all symbols not needed for further relocation processing.
|
|
.It Fl w | Fl -wildcard
|
|
Use shell-style patterns to name symbols.
|
|
The following meta-characters are recognized in patterns:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "...." -compact
|
|
.It Li !
|
|
If this is the first character of the pattern, invert the sense of the
|
|
pattern match.
|
|
.It Li *
|
|
Matches any string of characters in a symbol name.
|
|
.It Li ?
|
|
Matches zero or one character in a symbol name.
|
|
.It Li [
|
|
Mark the start of a character class.
|
|
.It Li \e
|
|
Remove the special meaning of the next character in the pattern.
|
|
.It Li ]
|
|
Mark the end of a character class.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Fl x | Fl -discard-all
|
|
Discard all non-global symbols.
|
|
.It Fl I Ar format | Fl -input-target= Ns Ar format
|
|
These options are accepted, but are ignored.
|
|
.It Fl K Ar symbol | Fl -keep-symbol= Ns Ar symbol
|
|
Keep the symbol
|
|
.Ar symbol
|
|
even if it would otherwise be stripped.
|
|
This option may be specified multiple times.
|
|
.It Fl N Ar symbol | Fl -strip-symbol= Ns Ar symbol
|
|
Remove the symbol
|
|
.Ar symbol
|
|
even if it would otherwise have been kept.
|
|
This option may be specified multiple times.
|
|
.It Fl O Ar format | Fl -output-target= Ns Ar format
|
|
Set the output file format to
|
|
.Ar format .
|
|
For the full list of supported formats, please see the documentation
|
|
for function

|
|
.It Fl R Ar sectionname | Fl -remove-section= Ns Ar sectionname
|
|
Remove the section named by the argument
|
|
.Ar sectionname .
|
|
This option may be specified multiple times.
|
|
.It Fl V | Fl -version
