18 elfedit updates the ELF header of ELF files which have the matching ELF
19 machine and file types. The options control how and which fields in
20 the ELF header should be updated.
21
22 elffile... are the ELF files to be updated. 32-bit and 64-bit ELF
23 files are supported, as are archives containing ELF files.
24
26 The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are
27 equivalent. At least one of the --output-mach and --output-type options
28 must be given.
29
30 --input-mach=machine
31 Set the matching input ELF machine type to machine. If
32 --input-mach isn't specified, it will match any ELF machine types.
33
34 The supported ELF machine types are, L1OM and x86-64.
35
36 --output-mach=machine
37 Change the ELF machine type in the ELF header to machine. The
38 supported ELF machine types are the same as --input-mach.
39
40 --input-type=type
41 Set the matching input ELF file type to type. If --input-type
42 isn't specified, it will match any ELF file types.
43
44 The supported ELF file types are, rel, exec and dyn.
45
46 --output-type=type
47 Change the ELF file type in the ELF header to type. The supported
48 ELF types are the same as --input-type.
49
50 -v
51 --version
52 Display the version number of elfedit.
53
54 -h
55 --help
56 Display the command line options understood by elfedit.
57
58 @file
59 Read command-line options from file. The options read are inserted
60 in place of the original @file option. If file does not exist, or
61 cannot be read, then the option will be treated literally, and not
62 removed.
63
64 Options in file are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
65 character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
66 option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including
67 a backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be
68 included with a backslash. The file may itself contain additional
69 @file options; any such options will be processed recursively.
