STRIP(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual STRIP(1)
NAME strip - discard information from ELF objects
SYNOPSIS strip [-d | -g | -S | --strip-debug] [-h | --help] [--only-keep-debug] [-o outputfile | --output-file=outputfile] [-p | --preserve-dates] [-s | --strip-all] [--strip-unneeded] [-w | --wildcard] [-x | --discard-all] [-I format | --input-target=format] [-K symbol | --keep-symbol=symbol] [-N symbol | --strip-symbol=symbol] [-O format | --output-target=format] [-R sectionname | --remove-section=sectionname] [-V | --version] [-X | --discard-locals] file ...
DESCRIPTION The strip utility is used to discard information from the ELF objects specified by the arguments file ....
If an explicit output file name is not specified using the -o option, the strip utility will modify its input arguments in-place.
The strip utility supports the following options:
-d | -g | -S | --strip-debug Remove debugging symbols only.
-h | --help Print a help message and exit.
--only-keep-debug Remove all content except that which would be used for debugging.
-o outputfile | --output-file=outputfile Write the stripped object to file outputfile instead of modifying the input in-place. Only a single input object should be specified if this option is used.
-p | --preserve-dates Preserve the object's access and modification times.
-s | --strip-all Remove all symbols.
--strip-unneeded Remove all symbols not needed for further relocation processing.
-w | --wildcard Use shell-style patterns to name symbols. The following meta- characters are recognized in patterns: ! If this is the first character of the pattern, invert the sense of the pattern match. * Matches any string of characters in a symbol name. ? Matches zero or one character in a symbol name. [ Mark the start of a character class. \ Remove the special meaning of the next character in the pattern. ] Mark the end of a character class.
-K symbol | --keep-symbol=symbol Keep the symbol symbol even if it would otherwise be stripped. This option may be specified multiple times.
-N symbol | --strip-symbol=symbol Remove the symbol symbol even if it would otherwise have been kept. This option may be specified multiple times.
-O format | --output-target=format Set the output file format to format. For the full list of supported formats, please see the documentation for function elftc_bfd_find_target(3).
-R sectionname | --remove-section=sectionname Remove the section named by the argument sectionname. This option may be specified multiple times.
-V | --version Print a version identifier and exit.
-X | --discard-locals Remove compiler-generated local symbols.
DIAGNOSTICS The strip utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
