.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBreadelf\fR displays information about one or more \s-1ELF\s0 format object
files.  The options control what particular information to display.
.PP
\&\fIelffile\fR... are the object files to be examined.  32\-bit and
64\-bit \s-1ELF\s0 files are supported, as are archives containing \s-1ELF\s0 files.
.PP
This program performs a similar function to \fBobjdump\fR but it
goes into more detail and it exists independently of the \s-1BFD\s0
library, so if there is a bug in \s-1BFD\s0 then readelf will not be
affected.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are
equivalent.  At least one option besides \fB\-v\fR or \fB\-H\fR must be
given.
.IP "\fB\-a\fR" 4
.IX Item "-a"

\&\fB\-\-relocs\fR, \fB\-\-dynamic\fR, \fB\-\-notes\fR,
\&\fB\-\-version\-info\fR, \fB\-\-arch\-specific\fR, \fB\-\-unwind\fR,
\&\fB\-\-section\-groups\fR and \fB\-\-histogram\fR.
.Sp
Note \- this option does not enable \fB\-\-use\-dynamic\fR itself, so
if that option is not present on the command line then dynamic symbols
and dynamic relocs will not be displayed.
.IP "\fB\-h\fR" 4
.IX Item "-h"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-file\-header\fR" 4

.IP "\fB\-\-section\-details\fR" 4

.IX Item "-s"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-symbols\fR" 4
.IX Item "--symbols"
.IP "\fB\-\-syms\fR" 4
.IX Item "--syms"
.PD
Displays the entries in symbol table section of the file, if it has one.
If a symbol has version information associated with it then this is
displayed as well.  The version string is displayed as a suffix to the
symbol name, preceded by an @ character.  For example
\&\fBfoo@VER_1\fR.  If the version is the default version to be used
when resolving unversioned references to the symbol then it is
displayed as a suffix preceded by two @ characters.  For example
\&\fBfoo@@VER_2\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-dyn\-syms\fR" 4
.IX Item "--dyn-syms"
Displays the entries in dynamic symbol table section of the file, if it
has one.  The output format is the same as the format used by the
\&\fB\-\-syms\fR option.
.IP "\fB\-\-lto\-syms\fR" 4
.IX Item "--lto-syms"
Displays the contents of any \s-1LTO\s0 symbol tables in the file.
.IP "\fB\-\-sym\-base=[0|8|10|16]\fR" 4
.IX Item "--sym-base=[0|8|10|16]"
Forces the size field of the symbol table to use the given base.  Any
unrecognized options will be treated as \fB0\fR.  \fB\-\-sym\-base=0\fR
represents the default and legacy behaviour.  This will output sizes as decimal
for numbers less than 100000.  For sizes 100000 and greater hexadecimal notation
will be used with a 0x prefix.
\&\fB\-\-sym\-base=8\fR will give the symbol sizes in octal.
\&\fB\-\-sym\-base=10\fR will always give the symbol sizes in decimal.
\&\fB\-\-sym\-base=16\fR will always give the symbol sizes in hexadecimal with a
0x prefix.
.IP "\fB\-C\fR" 4
.IX Item "-C"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-demangle[=\fR\fIstyle\fR\fB]\fR" 4
.IX Item "--demangle[=style]"
.PD
Decode (\fIdemangle\fR) low-level symbol names into user-level names.
This makes \*(C+ function names readable.  Different compilers have
different mangling styles.  The optional demangling style argument can
be used to choose an appropriate demangling style for your
compiler.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-demangle\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-demangle"
Do not demangle low-level symbol names.  This is the default.
.IP "\fB\-\-recurse\-limit\fR" 4
.IX Item "--recurse-limit"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-recurse\-limit\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-recurse-limit"
.IP "\fB\-\-recursion\-limit\fR" 4
.IX Item "--recursion-limit"
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-recursion\-limit\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-recursion-limit"
.PD
Enables or disables a limit on the amount of recursion performed
whilst demangling strings.  Since the name mangling formats allow for
an infinite level of recursion it is possible to create strings whose
decoding will exhaust the amount of stack space available on the host
machine, triggering a memory fault.  The limit tries to prevent this
from happening by restricting recursion to 2048 levels of nesting.
.Sp
The default is for this limit to be enabled, but disabling it may be
necessary in order to demangle truly complicated names.  Note however
that if the recursion limit is disabled then stack exhaustion is
possible and any bug reports about such an event will be rejected.
.IP "\fB\-U\fR \fI[d|i|l|e|x|h]\fR" 4
.IX Item "-U [d|i|l|e|x|h]"
.PD 0
.IP "\fB\-\-unicode=[default|invalid|locale|escape|hex|highlight]\fR" 4
.IX Item "--unicode=[default|invalid|locale|escape|hex|highlight]"
.PD
Controls the display of non-ASCII characters in identifier names.
The default (\fB\-\-unicode=locale\fR or \fB\-\-unicode=default\fR) is
to treat them as multibyte characters and display them in the current
locale.  All other versions of this option treat the bytes as \s-1UTF\-8\s0
encoded values and attempt to interpret them.  If they cannot be
interpreted or if the \fB\-\-unicode=invalid\fR option is used then
they are displayed as a sequence of hex bytes, encloses in curly
parethesis characters.
.Sp
Using the \fB\-\-unicode=escape\fR option will display the characters
as as unicode escape sequences (\fI\euxxxx\fR).  Using the
\&\fB\-\-unicode=hex\fR will display the characters as hex byte
sequences enclosed between angle brackets.
.Sp
Using the \fB\-\-unicode=highlight\fR will display the characters as 
unicode escape sequences but it will also highlighted them in red,
assuming that colouring is supported by the output device.  The
colouring is intended to draw attention to the presence of unicode
sequences when they might not be expected.
.IP "\fB\-e\fR" 4

(\f(CW\*(C`.ARM.exidx\*(C'\fR / \f(CW\*(C`.ARM.extab\*(C'\fR) are currently supported.  If
support is not yet implemented for your architecture you could try
dumping the contents of the \fI.eh_frames\fR section using the

options.

.IP "\fB\-\-use\-dynamic\fR" 4

.PD
When displaying symbols, this option makes \fBreadelf\fR use the
symbol hash tables in the file's dynamic section, rather than the
symbol table sections.
.Sp
When displaying relocations, this option makes \fBreadelf\fR
display the dynamic relocations rather than the static relocations.

Displays warning messages about possible problems with the file(s)
being examined.  If used on its own then all of the contents of the
file(s) will be examined.  If used with one of the dumping options
then the warning messages will only be produced for the things being
displayed.

Limit the dump of the \f(CW\*(C`.debug_info\*(C'\fR section to \fIn\fR children.
This is only useful with \fB\-\-debug\-dump=info\fR.  The default is
to print all DIEs; the special value 0 for \fIn\fR will also have this
effect.

With a non-zero value for \fIn\fR, DIEs at or deeper than \fIn\fR

If specified, this option will suppress printing of any header
information and all DIEs before the \s-1DIE\s0 numbered \fIn\fR.  Only

If the \s-1CTF\s0 section contains ambiguously-defined types, it will consist
of an archive of many \s-1CTF\s0 dictionaries, all inheriting from one
dictionary containing unambiguous types.  This member is by default
named \fI.ctf\fR, like the section containing it, but it is possible to
change this name using the \f(CW\*(C`ctf_link_set_memb_name_changer\*(C'\fR
function at link time.  When looking at \s-1CTF\s0 archives that have been
created by a linker that uses the name changer to rename the parent
archive member, \fB\-\-ctf\-parent\fR can be used to specify the name
used for the parent.

Don't break output lines to fit into 80 columns. By default
\&\fBreadelf\fR breaks section header and segment listing lines for
64\-bit \s-1ELF\s0 files, so that they fit into 80 columns. This option causes
\&\fBreadelf\fR to print each section header resp. each segment one a
single line, which is far more readable on terminals wider than 80 columns.

Normally when readelf is displaying a symbol name, and it has to
truncate the name to fit into an 80 column display, it will add a
suffix of \f(CW\*(C`[...]\*(C'\fR to the name.  This command line option
disables this behaviour, allowing 5 more characters of the name to be
displayed and restoring the old behaviour of readelf (prior to release
2.35).

Read command-line options from \fIfile\fR.  The options read are
inserted in place of the original @\fIfile\fR option.  If \fIfile\fR
does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
literally, and not removed.
.Sp
Options in \fIfile\fR are separated by whitespace.  A whitespace
character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
option in either single or double quotes.  Any character (including a
backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
with a backslash.  The \fIfile\fR may itself contain additional
@\fIfile\fR options; any such options will be processed recursively.
