This option prints information about specific topics. You
can write the output to a text file using --list=.file
Syntax
--info=topic[,topic,...]
Where topic
anyFor sections placed using the
.ANYmodule 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 continency space and policy used for each region.
This keyword also displays additional information when you use the execution region attribute
ANY_SIZEin a scatter file.architectureSummarizes the image architecture by listing the CPU, FPU and byte order.
commonLists all common sections that are eliminated from the image. Using this option implies
--info=common,totals.compressionGives extra information about the RW compression process.
debugLists all rejected input debug sections that are eliminated from the image as a result of using
--remove. Using this option implies--info=debug,totals.exceptionsGives information on exception table generation and optimization.
inlineLists all functions that are inlined by the linker, and the total number of inlines if
--inlineis used.inputsLists the input symbols, objects and libraries.
librariesLists the full path name of every library automatically selected for the link stage.
You can use this option with
--info_lib_prefixto display information about a specific library.mergeLists the const strings that are merged by the linker. Each item lists the merged result, the strings being merged, and the associated object files.
pltgotLists the PLT entries built for the executable or DLL.
sizesLists 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.stackLists the stack usage of all global symbols.
summarysizesSummarizes the code and data sizes of the image.
summarystackSummarizes the stack usage of all global symbols.
tailreorderLists all the tail calling sections that are moved above their targets, as a result of using
--tailreorder.totalsLists the totals of the code and data (RO Data, RW Data, ZI Data, and Debug Data) sizes for input objects and libraries.
unusedLists 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.unusedsymbolsLists all symbols that have been removed by unused section elimination.
veneersLists the linker-generated veneers.
veneercallersLists the linker-generated veneers with additional information about the callers to each veneer. Use with
--verboseto list each call individually.veneerpoolsDisplays information on how the linker has placed veneer pools.
visibilityLists the symbol visibility information. You can use this option with either
--info=inputsor--verboseto enhance the output.weakrefsLists all symbols that are the target of weak references, and whether or not they were defined.
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.
