.TP
-.BI "-b " "input-format"\c

.TP
.B \-Bstatic
-This flag is accepted for command-line compatibility with the SunOS linker,
-but has no effect on \c
-.B ld\c
-\&.
+Do not link against shared libraries. This is only meaningful on
+platforms for which shared libraries are supported.
+
+.TP
+.B \-Bdynamic
+Link against dynamic libraries. This is only meaningful on platforms
+for which shared libraries are supported. This option is normally the
+default on such platforms.
.TP
-.BI "-c " "commandfile"\c
-\&
+.B \-Bsymbolic
+When creating a shared library, bind references to global symbols to
+the definition within the shared library, if any. Normally, it is
+possible for a program linked against a shared library to override the
+definition within the shared library. This option is only meaningful
+on ELF platforms which support shared libraries.
+
+.TP
+.BI "\-c " "commandfile"
Directs \c
.B ld\c
\& to read link commands from the file
.B }\c
\|' characters.
+.TP
+.B \-\-cref
+Output a cross reference table. If a linker map file is being
+generated, the cross reference table is printed to the map file.
+Otherwise, it is printed on the standard output.
+
.TP
.B \-d
.TP
.B \-dp
These three options are equivalent; multiple forms are supported for
compatibility with other linkers. Use any of them to make \c
-.B ld\c

+.B ld
assign space to common symbols even if a relocatable output file is
specified (\c
.B \-r\c
\& has the same effect.
.TP
-.BI "-defsym " "symbol"\c
-\& = \c
-.I expression\c
-\&
+.BI "-defsym " "symbol" "\fR = \fP" expression
Create a global symbol in the output file, containing the absolute
address given by \c
.I expression\c
entry point.
.TP
-.B \-F
+.B \-embedded\-relocs
+This option is only meaningful when linking MIPS embedded PIC code,
+generated by the
+.B \-membedded\-pic
+option to the GNU compiler and assembler. It causes the linker to
+create a table which may be used at runtime to relocate any data which
+was statically initialized to pointer values. See the code in
+testsuite/ld-empic for details.
+
.TP
-.BI "-F" "format"\c
-\&
-Some older linkers used this option throughout a compilation toolchain
-for specifying object-file format for both input and output object
-files. \c
-.B ld\c
-\&'s mechanisms (the \c
-.B \-b\c
-\& or \c
-.B \-format\c
-\& options
-for input files, the \c
-.B TARGET\c
-\& command in linker scripts for output
-files, the \c
-.B GNUTARGET\c
-\& environment variable) are more flexible, but
-but it accepts (and ignores) the \c
-.B \-F\c
-\& option flag for compatibility
-with scripts written to call the old linker.
+.B \-E
+.TP
+.B \-export\-dynamic
+When creating an ELF file, add all symbols to the dynamic symbol table.
+Normally, the dynamic symbol table contains only symbols which are used
+by a dynamic object. This option is needed for some uses of
+.I dlopen.
+
+.TP
+.BI "-f " "name"
+.TP
+.BI "--auxiliary " "name"
+When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_AUXILIARY field
+to the specified name. This tells the dynamic linker that the symbol
+table of the shared object should be used as an auxiliary filter on the
+symbol table of the shared object
+.I name.
+
+.TP
+.BI "-F " "name"
+.TP
+.BI "--filter " "name"
+When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_FILTER field to
+the specified name. This tells the dynamic linker that the symbol table
+of the shared object should be used as a filter on the symbol table of
+the shared object
+.I name.
.TP
-.BI "-format " "input-format"\c
-\&
+.BI "\-format " "input\-format"
Synonym for \c
.B \-b\c

-.I input-format\c
+.I input\-format\c
\&.
.TP
.B \-g
Accepted, but ignored; provided for compatibility with other tools.
+.TP
+.BI "\-G " "size"\c
+Set the maximum size of objects to be optimized using the GP register
+to
+.I size
+under MIPS ECOFF. Ignored for other object file formats.
+
+.TP
+.BI "-h " "name"
+.TP
+.BI "-soname " "name"
+When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_SONAME field to
+the specified name. When an executable is linked with a shared object
+which has a DT_SONAME field, then when the executable is run the dynamic
+linker will attempt to load the shared object specified by the DT_SONAME
+field rather than the using the file name given to the linker.
+
+.TP
+.B \-\-help
+Print a summary of the command-line options on the standard output and exit.
+This option and
+.B \-\-version
+begin with two dashes instead of one
+for compatibility with other GNU programs. The other options start with
+only one dash for compatibility with other linkers.
+
.TP
.B \-i
Perform an incremental link (same as option \c
\&).
.TP
-.BI "-l" "ar"\c
+.BI "\-l" "ar"\c
\&
Add an archive file \c
.I ar\c
.I ar\c
\&.a\c
\& for every \c
-.I ar\c
-\&
+.I ar
specified.
.TP
-.BI "-L" "searchdir"\c
-\&
+.BI "\-L" "searchdir"
This command adds path \c
.I searchdir\c
\& to the list of paths that
\& is using, and in
some cases also on how it was configured. The
paths can also be specified in a link script with the \c
-.B SEARCH_DIR\c
-\&
+.B SEARCH_DIR
command.
.TP
.B \-M
-.TP
-.B \-m
Print (to the standard output file) a link map\(em\&diagnostic information
about where symbols are mapped by \c
.B ld\c
\&, and information on global
common storage allocation.
+.TP
+.BI "\-Map " "mapfile"\c
+Print to the file
+.I mapfile
+a link map\(em\&diagnostic information
+about where symbols are mapped by \c
+.B ld\c
+\&, and information on global
+common storage allocation.
+
+.TP
+.BI "\-m " "emulation"\c
+Emulate the
+.I emulation
+linker. You can list the available emulations with the
+.I \-\-verbose
+or
+.I \-V
+options. This option overrides the compiled-in default, which is the
+system for which you configured
+.BR ld .
+
.TP
.B \-N
specifies readable and writable \c
if possible.
.TP
-.B \-noinhibit-exec
+.B \-noinhibit\-exec
Normally, the linker will not produce an output file if it encounters
errors during the link process. With this flag, you can specify that
you wish the output file retained even after non-fatal errors.
.TP
-.BI "-o " "output"\c
-\&
-.I output\c
-\&
-\c
+.B \-no\-keep\-memory
+The linker normally optimizes for speed over memory usage by caching
+the symbol tables of input files in memory. This option tells the
+linker to instead optimize for memory usage, by rereading the symbol
+tables as necessary. This may be required if the linker runs out of
+memory space while linking a large executable.
+
+.TP
+.B \-no\-warn\-mismatch
+Normally the linker will give an error if you try to link together
+input files that are mismatched for some reason, perhaps because they
+have been compiled for different processors or for different
+endiannesses. This option tells the linker that it should silently
+permit such possible errors. This option should only be used with
+care, in cases when you have taken some special action that ensures
+that the linker errors are inappropriate.
+
+.TP
+.BI "\-o " "output"
.I output\c
\& is a name for the program produced by \c
.B ld\c
\& can also specify the output file name.
.TP
-.BI "-R " "filename"\c
-\&
-.I file\c
-\&
+.BI "\-oformat " "output\-format"
+Specify the binary format for the output object file.
+You don't usually need to specify this, as
+\c
+.B ld\c
+\& is configured to produce as a default output format the most
+usual format on each machine. \c
+.I output-format\c
+\& is a text string, the
+name of a particular format supported by the BFD libraries.
+The script command
+.B OUTPUT_FORMAT
+can also specify the output format, but this option overrides it.
+
+.TP
+.BI "\-R " "filename"
Read symbol names and their addresses from \c
.I filename\c
\&, but do not
.B \-i\c
\&.
+.TP
+.B \-rpath\ \fIdirectory
+Add a directory to the runtime library search path. This is used when
+linking an ELF executable with shared objects. All
+.B \-rpath
+arguments are concatenated and passed to the runtime linker, which uses
+them to locate shared objects at runtime. The
+.B \-rpath
+option is also used when locating shared objects which are needed by
+shared objects explicitly included in the link; see the description of
+the
+.B \-rpath\-link
+option. If
+.B \-rpath
+is not used when linking an ELF executable, the contents of the
+environment variable
+.B LD_RUN_PATH
+will be used if it is defined.
+
+The
+.B \-rpath
+option may also be used on SunOS. By default, on SunOS, the linker
+will form a runtime search patch out of all the
+.B \-L
+options it is given. If a
+.B \-rpath
+option is used, the runtime search path will be formed exclusively
+using the
+.B \-rpath
+options, ignoring
+the
+.B \-L
+options. This can be useful when using gcc, which adds many
+.B \-L
+options which may be on NFS mounted filesystems.
+
+.TP
+.B \-rpath\-link\ \fIdirectory
+When using ELF or SunOS, one shared library may require another. This
+happens when an
+.B ld\ \-shared
+link includes a shared library as one of the input files.
+
+When the linker encounters such a dependency when doing a non-shared,
+non-relocateable link, it will automatically try to locate the required
+shared library and include it in the link, if it is not included
+explicitly. In such a case, the
+.B \-rpath\-link
+option specifies the first set of directories to search. The
+.B \-rpath\-link
+option may specify a sequence of directory names either by specifying
+a list of names separated by colons, or by appearing multiple times.
+
+If the required shared library is not found, the linker will issue a
+warning and continue with the link.
+
.TP
.B \-S
Omits debugger symbol information (but not all symbols) from the output file.
Omits all symbol information from the output file.
.TP
-.BI "{ " "script" " }"
-You can, if you wish, include a script of linker commands directly in
-the command line instead of referring to it via an input file. When the
-character `\|\c
-.B {\c
-\|' occurs on the command line, the linker switches to
-interpreting the command language until the end of the list of commands
-is reached\(em\&flagged with a closing brace `\|\c
-.B }\c
-\|'. Other command-line
-options will not be recognized while parsing the script.
-See the `\|\c
-.B ld\c
-\|' entry in `\|\c
-.B info\c
-\|', or the manual
-.I
-ld: the GNU linker
-\&, for a description of the command language.
+.B \-shared
+Create a shared library. This is currently only supported on ELF and
+SunOS platforms (on SunOS it is not required, as the linker will
+automatically create a shared library when there are undefined symbols
+and the
+.B \-e
+option is not used).
.TP
-.BI "-Tbss " "org"\c
+.B \-sort\-common
+Normally, when
+.B ld
+places the global common symbols in the appropriate output sections,
+it sorts them by size. First come all the one byte symbols, then all
+the two bytes, then all the four bytes, and then everything else.
+This is to prevent gaps between symbols due to
+alignment constraints. This option disables that sorting.
+
+.TP
+.B \-split\-by\-reloc\ \fIcount
+Trys to creates extra sections in the output file so that no single
+output section in the file contains more than
+.I count
+relocations.
+This is useful when generating huge relocatable for downloading into
+certain real time kernels with the COFF object file format; since COFF
+cannot represent more than 65535 relocations in a single section.
+Note that this will fail to work with object file formats which do not
+support arbitrary sections. The linker will not split up individual
+input sections for redistribution, so if a single input section
+contains more than
+.I count
+relocations one output section will contain that many relocations.
+
+.TP
+.B \-split\-by\-file
+Similar to
+.B \-split\-by\-reloc
+but creates a new output section for each input file.

+Display the version number for \c

+
+.TP
+.B \-warn\-common
+Warn when a common symbol is combined with another common symbol or with
+a symbol definition. Unix linkers allow this somewhat sloppy practice,
+but linkers on some other operating systems do not. This option allows
+you to find potential problems from combining global symbols.
+
+.TP
+.B \-warn\-constructors
+Warn if any global constructors are used. This is only useful for a
+few object file formats. For formats like COFF or ELF, the linker can
+not detect the use of global constructors.
+
+.TP
+.B \-warn\-multiple\-gp
+Warn if the output file requires multiple global-pointer values. This
+option is only meaningful for certain processors, such as the Alpha.
+
+.TP
+.B \-warn\-once
+Only warn once for each undefined symbol, rather than once per module
+which refers to it.
+
+.TP
+.B \-warn\-section\-align
+Warn if the address of an output section is changed because of
+alignment. Typically, the alignment will be set by an input section.
+The address will only be changed if it not explicitly specified; that
+is, if the SECTIONS command does not specify a start address for the
+section.
+
+.TP
+.B \-\-whole\-archive
+For each archive mentioned on the command line after the
+.B \-\-whole\-archive
+option, include every object file in the archive in the link, rather
+than searching the archive for the required object files. This is
+normally used to turn an archive file into a shared library, forcing
+every object to be included in the resulting shared library.
+
+.TP
+.B \-\-no\-whole\-archive
+Turn off the effect of the
+.B \-\-whole\-archive
+option for archives which appear later on the command line.

+.TP
+.BI "--wrap " "symbol"
+Use a wrapper function for
+.I symbol.

+\&.
\c
.B GNUTARGET\c
places the conventional format for that system first in the search-list,
so ambiguities are resolved in favor of convention.
-\c
-.B LDEMULATION\c
-\& controls some aspects of \c
-.B ld\c
-\&'s dominant
-personality. Although \c
-.B ld\c
-\& is flexible enough to permit its use
-in many contexts regardless of configuration, you can use this variable
-to make it act more like one or another older linker by default.
-
-In particular, the value of \c
-.B LDEMULATION\c
-\& controls what default
-linker script is used (thereby controlling the default input and output
-formats; ; what default paths are searched for
-archive libraries; and in some cases whether additional linker script
-commands are available.
-
-Here is the current set of emulations available:
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=gld
-Emulate the older GNU linker. When this emulation is selected, the
-default library search paths are
-.sp
-.br
-/lib
-.br
-/usr/lib
-.br
-/usr/local/lib/lib
-.br
-.sp
-
-The default output format is set to \c
-.B a.out-generic-big\c
-\&, and the
-default machine is the system's configured BFD default.
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=gld68k
-A variant of the \c
-.B gld\c
-\& emulation; only differs in specifically
-setting the default BFD machine as \c
-.B m68k\c
-\&.
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=gld960
-Emulate the Intel port of the older \c
-.B gld\c
-\& for the i960
-architectures. The default library search paths are taken from two
-other environment variables, \c
-.B G960LIB\c
-\& and \c
-.B G960BASE\c
-\&. The
-default architecture is \c
-.B i960\c
-\&. The default output format is set
-to \c
-.B b.out.big\c
-\&, and in fact the default output file name (if
-\c
-.B \-o\c
-\& is not specified) is \c
-.B b.out\c
-\&, to reflect this variant
-format, for this emulation.
-
-This emulation can behave slightly differently depending on the setting
-of the \c
-.B ld\c
-\& compile-time switch \c
-.B GNU960\c
-\&. If \c
-.B ld\c
-\& is
-compiled with \c
-.B GNU960\c
-\& defined, then an additional environment
-variable\(em\&\c
-.B GNUTARGET\c
-\&\(em\&is available; its value, if available,
-specifies some other default output format than \c
-.B b.out.big\c
-\&.
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=gldm88kbcs
-Sets the output format to \c
-.B m88kbcs\c
-\& and the architecture to
-\c
-.B m88k\c
-\&. Default library search paths are
-.sp
-.br
-/lib
-.br
-/usr/lib
-.br
-/usr/local/lib
-.br
-.sp
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=lnk960
-Emulate the Intel linker \c
-.B lnk960\c
-\&. The default output format is
-\c
-.B coff-Intel-big\c
-\&. With this emulation, \c
-.B ld\c
-\&
-supports the additional script commands \c
-.B HLL\c
-\& and \c
-.B SYSLIB\c
-\& for
-specification of library archives. This is the only emulation with
-extensive support for the \c
-.B \-A\c
-\& (architecture) command-line option.
-By default, the architecture \c
-.B CORE\c
-\& is assumed, but you can choose
-additional features from the i960 architecture family by using one of
-the following with \c
-.B \-A\c
-\& (or by using the \c

-The default libraries are chosen with some attention to the architecture
-selected; the core library `\|\c
-.B cg\c
-\|' is always included, but the library
-\c
-.B fpg\c
-\& is also used if you've specified any of the architectures
-\c
-.B KA\c
-\&, \c
-.B SA\c
-\&, or \c
-.B CA\c
-\&.
-
-Like \c
-.B gld960\c
-\&, this emulation uses additional environment variables
-to set the default library search paths. Also like \c
-.B gld960\c
-\&, the
-behavior of this emulation is slightly different depending on whether
-\c
-.B ld\c
-\& itself was compiled with \c
-.B GNU960\c
-\& defined.
-
-If your \c
-.B ld\c
-\& was compiled with \c
-.B GNU960\c
-\& defined, the default
-paths are taken from all three of \c
-.B G960LIB\c
-\&, \c
-.B G960BASE\c
-\&, and
-\c
-.B I960BASE\c
-\&. For the first two, paths you supply are automatically
-suffixed with `\|\c
-.B /lib/libcoff\c
-\|'; for the last, your path is
-automatically suffixed with `\|\c
-.B /lib\c
-\|'.
-
-If your \c
-.B ld\c
-\& was \c
-.I not\c
-\& compiled with \c
-.B GNU960\c
-\& defined,
-the default paths are taken from \c
-.B I960BASE\c
-\&, and \c
-.B G960BASE\c
-\& is
-only consulted if \c
-.B I960BASE\c
-\& is undefined. In this case
-\c
-.B G960LIB\c
-\& is not used at all.
-
-.TP
-.B LDEMULATION=vanilla
-This is the least specific setting for \c
-.B ld\c
-\&. You can set
-\c
-.B LDEMULATION=vanilla\c
-\& to disable emulation of other linkers. This
-setting makes \c
-.B ld\c
-\& take the default machine from the BFD
-configuration on your system; \c
-.B a.out-generic-big\c
-\& is the default
-target. No other defaults are specified.
