crunchide — hides
symbol names from ld, for crunching programs together
crunchide |
[-f keep-list-file]
[-k keep-symbol]
[object-file ...] |
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.
The crunch utility was written by

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