NAME

crunchide – hides symbol names from ld, for crunching programs together

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS


crunchide [-f keep-list-file] [-k keep-symbol] [object-file ...]

DESCRIPTION

The crunchide 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.

SEE ALSO

crunchgen(1), ld(1)

“ This philosophy, in the hands of amateurs, leads to inexplicably mind-numbing botches like the existence of two programs, “head” and “tail,” which print the first part or the last part of a file, depending. Even though their operations are duals of one another, “head” and “tail” are different programs, written by different authors, and take different options! ”
