—
mark an ELF binary for a specific ABI
SYNOPSIS¶
brandelf |
[ -lv ]
[-f
ELF_ABI_number ]
[-t
string ]
file ... |
DESCRIPTION¶
The
brandelf
utility marks an ELF binary to
be run under a certain ABI for
FreeBSD.
The options are as follows:
-f
ELF_ABI_number
- Forces branding with the supplied ELF ABI number. Incompatible with the
-t
option. These values are assigned by
SCO/USL.
-l
- Writes the list of all known ELF types to the standard error.
-v
- Turns on verbose output.
-t
string
- Brands the given ELF binaries to be of the
string ABI type. Currently supported ABIs
are “
FreeBSD
”,
“Linux
”, and
“SVR4
”.
- file
- If
-t
string is given it will brand
file to be of type
string, otherwise it will simply display
the branding of file.
EXIT STATUS¶
Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails if a file does not
exist, is too short, fails to brand properly, or the brand requested is not
one of the known types and the
-f
option is
not set.
EXAMPLES¶
The following is an example of a typical usage of the
brandelf
command:
brandelf file
brandelf -t Linux file
