--info=topic[,topic,…]
Prints information about specific topics. You can write the output to a text file using --list=
.file
Syntax
--info=topic[,topic,…]
Where
is a comma-separated list from the
following topic keywords:topic
any
For sections placed using the
.ANY
module selector, lists:The sort order.
The placement algorithm.
The sections that are assigned to each execution region in the order they are assigned by the placement algorithm.
Information about the contingency space and policy used for each region.
This keyword also displays additional information when you use the execution region attribute
ANY_SIZE
in a scatter file.architecture
Summarizes the image architecture by listing the processor, FPU, and byte order.
common
Lists all common sections that are eliminated from the image. Using this option implies
--info=common,totals.
compression
Gives extra information about the RW compression process.
debug
Lists all rejected input debug sections that are eliminated from the image as a result of using
--remove
. Using this option implies--info=debug,totals
.exceptions
Gives information on exception table generation and optimization.
inline
Lists all functions that are inlined by the linker, and the total number of inlines if
--inline
is used.inputs
Lists the input symbols, objects and libraries.
libraries
Lists the full path name of every library automatically selected for the link stage.
You can use this option with
--info_lib_prefix
to display information about a specific library.lto
-
Lists the commands sent to the link time optimizer.
You can use this option with
--keep_intermediate=lto
to reproduce link time optimization commands outside of armlink. merge
Lists the
const
strings that are merged by the linker. Each item lists the merged result, the strings being merged, and the associated object files.pltgot
-
Lists the PLT entries built for the executable or DLL.
sizes
Lists the code and data (RO Data, RW Data, ZI Data, and Debug Data) sizes for each input object and library member in the image. Using this option implies
--info=sizes,totals
.stack
Lists the stack usage of all functions.
summarysizes
Summarizes the code and data sizes of the image.
summarystack
Summarizes the stack usage of all global symbols.
tailreorder
Lists all the tail calling sections that are moved above their targets, as a result of using
--tailreorder
.totals
Lists the totals of the code and data (RO Data, RW Data, ZI Data, and Debug Data) sizes for input objects and libraries.
unused
Lists all unused sections that are eliminated from the user code as a result of using
--remove
. It does not list any unused sections that are loaded from the ARM C libraries.unusedsymbols
Lists all symbols that have been removed by unused section elimination.
veneers
Lists the linker-generated veneers.
veneercallers
Lists the linker-generated veneers with additional information about the callers to each veneer. Use with
--verbose
to list each call individually.veneerpools
Displays information on how the linker has placed veneer pools.
visibility
Lists the symbol visibility information. You can use this option with either
--info=inputs
or--verbose
to enhance the output.weakrefs
Lists all symbols that are the target of weak references, and whether or not they were defined.
Usage
The output from --info=sizes,totals
always includes the padding values in
the totals for input objects and libraries.
If you are using RW data compression (the default), or if you have specified a compressor
using the --datacompressor=
option, the output from
id
--info=sizes,totals
includes an entry under Grand Totals
to reflect the true size of the image.
Note
Spaces are not permitted between topic keywords in the list. For example, you can enter--info=sizes,totals
but not --info=sizes, totals
