This option is deprecated.
This option controls the section-level view from the ELF image.
--no_linkview discards the section-level
view and retains only the segment-level view (load time view). Discarding
the section-level view eliminates:
the section header table
the section header string table
the string table
the symbol table
all debug sections.
All that is left in the output is the program header table and the program segments. According to the System V Application Binary Interface specification, these are all that a program loader can rely on being present in an ELF file.
RestrictionsThe following restrictions apply:
you must use
--elfwith--linkviewand--no_linkviewdo not use the
--no_linkviewoption with SysV images.
To get ELF format output for image.axf,
enter:
fromelf --no_linkview --elf image.axf --output=image_nlk.axf
