NAME
crunchide
—
hides symbol names from ld, for
crunching programs together
SYNOPSIS
crunchide |
[-f keep-list-file]
[-k keep-symbol]
[object-file ...] |
DESCRIPTION
Thecrunchide
utility hides the global symbols of
object-file such that they are ignored by subsequent
runs of the linker, ld(1). Some symbols may be left visible via the
-k
keep-symbol and
-f
keep-list-file options. The
keep-list-file must contain a list of symbols to keep
visible, one symbol per line. The names given by
keep-symbol or in keep-list-file
should be C names. For example, to keep the C function “foo”
visible, the option “-k foo” should be used.
The crunchide
utility is designed as a
companion program for
crunchgen(1), which automates the process of creating
crunched binaries from multiple component programs.

so that it supported multiple
object formats, and added ELF object support and ECOFF object
recognition.
