The --locals option adds local symbols in
the output symbol table.
The effect of the --no_locals option is different
for images and object files.
When producing an executable image --no_locals removes
local symbols from the output symbol table.
For object files built with the --partial option,
the --no_locals option:
Keeps mapping symbols and build attributes in the symbol table.
Removes those local symbols that can be removed without loss of functionality.
Symbols that cannot be removed, such as the targets for relocations,
are kept. For these symbols, the names are removed. These are marked
as [Anonymous Symbol] in the fromelf
--text output.
--no_locals is a useful optimization if you
want to reduce the size of the output symbol table in the final
image.
