size - list section sizes and total size.
SYNOPSIS
size [ -A | -B | --format=compatibility ]
[ --help ] [ -d | -o | -x | --radix=number ]
[ --target=bfdname ] [ -V | --version ]
[ objfile... ]
DESCRIPTION
The GNU `size' utility lists the section sizes---and the
total size---for each of the object or archive files obj
file in its argument list. By default, one line of output
is generated for each object file or each module in an
archive.
objfile... are the object files to be examined. If none
are specified, the file `a.out' will be used.
OPTIONS
The command line options have the following meanings:
`-A'
`-B'
`--format=compatibility'
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the
output from GNU `size' resembles output from System V
`size' (using -A, or --format=sysv), or Berkeley
`size' (using -B, or --format=berkeley). The default
is the one-line format similar to Berkeley's.
Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of
output from `size':
$ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size
text data bss dec hex filename
294880 81920 11592 388392 5ed28 ranlib
294880 81920 11888 388688 5ee50 size
This is the same data, but displayed closer to System
V conventions:
$ size --format=SysV ranlib size
ranlib :
section size addr
.text 294880 8192
.data 81920 303104
.bss 11592 385024
Total 388392
section size addr
.text 294880 8192
.data 81920 303104
.bss 11888 385024
Total 388688
`--help'
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.
`-d'
`-o'
`-x'
`--radix=number'
Using one of these options, you can control whether
the size of each section is given in decimal (-d, or
--radix=10); octal (-o, or --radix=8); or hexadecimal
(-x, or --radix=16). In --radix=number, only the
three values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total
size is always given in two radices; decimal and hex
adecimal for -d or -x output, or octal and hexadecimal
if you're using -o.
`--target=bfdname'
Specify that the object-code format for objfile is
bfdname. This option may not be necessary; `size' can
automatically recognize many formats.
`-V'
`--version'
Display the version number of `size'.
