- <a name="Options-for-Linking"></a>
- <h3 class="section">3.15 Options for Linking</h3>
- <a name="index-link-options"></a>
- <a name="index-options_002c-linking"></a>
-
- <p>These options come into play when the compiler links object files into
- an executable output file. They are meaningless if the compiler is
- not doing a link step.
- </p>
- <dl compact="compact">
- <dd><a name="index-file-names"></a>
- </dd>
- <dt><code><var>object-file-name</var></code></dt>
- <dd><p>A file name that does not end in a special recognized suffix is
- considered to name an object file or library. (Object files are
- distinguished from libraries by the linker according to the file
- contents.) If linking is done, these object files are used as input
- to the linker.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-c</code></dt>
- <dt><code>-S</code></dt>
- <dt><code>-E</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-c-1"></a>
- <a name="index-S-1"></a>
- <a name="index-E-1"></a>
- <p>If any of these options is used, then the linker is not run, and
- object file names should not be used as arguments. See <a href="Overall-Options.html#Overall-Options">Overall Options</a>.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-flinker-output=<var>type</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-flinker_002doutput"></a>
- <p>This option controls code generation of the link-time optimizer. By
- default the linker output is automatically determined by the linker
- plugin. For debugging the compiler and if incremental linking with a
- non-LTO object file is desired, it may be useful to control the type
- manually.
- </p>
- <p>If <var>type</var> is ‘<samp>exec</samp>’, code generation produces a static
- binary. In this case <samp>-fpic</samp> and <samp>-fpie</samp> are both
- disabled.
- </p>
- <p>If <var>type</var> is ‘<samp>dyn</samp>’, code generation produces a shared
- library. In this case <samp>-fpic</samp> or <samp>-fPIC</samp> is preserved,
- but not enabled automatically. This allows to build shared libraries
- without position-independent code on architectures where this is
- possible, i.e. on x86.
- </p>
- <p>If <var>type</var> is ‘<samp>pie</samp>’, code generation produces an <samp>-fpie</samp>
- executable. This results in similar optimizations as ‘<samp>exec</samp>’
- except that <samp>-fpie</samp> is not disabled if specified at compilation
- time.
- </p>
- <p>If <var>type</var> is ‘<samp>rel</samp>’, the compiler assumes that incremental linking is
- done. The sections containing intermediate code for link-time optimization are
- merged, pre-optimized, and output to the resulting object file. In addition, if
- <samp>-ffat-lto-objects</samp> is specified, binary code is produced for future
- non-LTO linking. The object file produced by incremental linking is smaller
- than a static library produced from the same object files. At link time the
- result of incremental linking also loads faster than a static
- library assuming that the majority of objects in the library are used.
- </p>
- <p>Finally ‘<samp>nolto-rel</samp>’ configures the compiler for incremental linking where
- code generation is forced, a final binary is produced, and the intermediate
- code for later link-time optimization is stripped. When multiple object files
- are linked together the resulting code is better optimized than with
- link-time optimizations disabled (for example, cross-module inlining
- happens), but most of benefits of whole program optimizations are lost.
- </p>
- <p>During the incremental link (by <samp>-r</samp>) the linker plugin defaults to
- <samp>rel</samp>. With current interfaces to GNU Binutils it is however not
- possible to incrementally link LTO objects and non-LTO objects into a single
- mixed object file. If any of object files in incremental link cannot
- be used for link-time optimization, the linker plugin issues a warning and
- uses ‘<samp>nolto-rel</samp>’. To maintain whole program optimization, it is
- recommended to link such objects into static library instead. Alternatively it
- is possible to use H.J. Lu’s binutils with support for mixed objects.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-fuse-ld=bfd</code></dt>

- <dt><code>-l <var>library</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-l"></a>
- <p>Search the library named <var>library</var> when linking. (The second
- alternative with the library as a separate argument is only for
- POSIX compliance and is not recommended.)
- </p>
- <p>The <samp>-l</samp> option is passed directly to the linker by GCC. Refer
- to your linker documentation for exact details. The general
- description below applies to the GNU linker.
- </p>
- <p>The linker searches a standard list of directories for the library.
- The directories searched include several standard system directories
- plus any that you specify with <samp>-L</samp>.
- </p>
- <p>Static libraries are archives of object files, and have file names
- like <samp>lib<var>library</var>.a</samp>. Some targets also support shared
- libraries, which typically have names like <samp>lib<var>library</var>.so</samp>.
- If both static and shared libraries are found, the linker gives
- preference to linking with the shared library unless the
- <samp>-static</samp> option is used.
- </p>
- <p>It makes a difference where in the command you write this option; the
- linker searches and processes libraries and object files in the order they
- are specified. Thus, ‘<samp>foo.o -lz bar.o</samp>’ searches library ‘<samp>z</samp>’
- after file <samp>foo.o</samp> but before <samp>bar.o</samp>. If <samp>bar.o</samp> refers
- to functions in ‘<samp>z</samp>’, those functions may not be loaded.

- <p>You need this special case of the <samp>-l</samp> option in order to

- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-nostartfiles</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-nostartfiles"></a>
- <p>Do not use the standard system startup files when linking.
- The standard system libraries are used normally, unless <samp>-nostdlib</samp>,

- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-nodefaultlibs</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-nodefaultlibs"></a>
- <p>Do not use the standard system libraries when linking.
- Only the libraries you specify are passed to the linker, and options
- specifying linkage of the system libraries, such as <samp>-static-libgcc</samp>
- or <samp>-shared-libgcc</samp>, are ignored.
- The standard startup files are used normally, unless <samp>-nostartfiles</samp>
- is used.
- </p>
- <p>The compiler may generate calls to <code>memcmp</code>,
- <code>memset</code>, <code>memcpy</code> and <code>memmove</code>.
- These entries are usually resolved by entries in
- libc. These entry points should be supplied through some other
- mechanism when this option is specified.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-nolibc</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-nolibc"></a>
- <p>Do not use the C library or system libraries tightly coupled with it when
- linking. Still link with the startup files, <samp>libgcc</samp> or toolchain
- provided language support libraries such as <samp>libgnat</samp>, <samp>libgfortran</samp>
- or <samp>libstdc++</samp> unless options preventing their inclusion are used as
- well. This typically removes <samp>-lc</samp> from the link command line, as well
- as system libraries that normally go with it and become meaningless when
- absence of a C library is assumed, for example <samp>-lpthread</samp> or
- <samp>-lm</samp> in some configurations. This is intended for bare-board
- targets when there is indeed no C library available.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-nostdlib</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-nostdlib"></a>
- <p>Do not use the standard system startup files or libraries when linking.
- No startup files and only the libraries you specify are passed to
- the linker, and options specifying linkage of the system libraries, such as
- <samp>-static-libgcc</samp> or <samp>-shared-libgcc</samp>, are ignored.
- </p>
- <p>The compiler may generate calls to <code>memcmp</code>, <code>memset</code>,

- <p>One of the standard libraries bypassed by <samp>-nostdlib</samp> and
- <samp>-nodefaultlibs</samp> is <samp>libgcc.a</samp>, a library of internal subroutines
- which GCC uses to overcome shortcomings of particular machines, or special
- needs for some languages.
- (See <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Interface.html#Interface">Interfacing to GCC Output</a> in <cite>GNU Compiler
- Collection (GCC) Internals</cite>,
- for more discussion of <samp>libgcc.a</samp>.)
- In most cases, you need <samp>libgcc.a</samp> even when you want to avoid
- other standard libraries. In other words, when you specify <samp>-nostdlib</samp>
- or <samp>-nodefaultlibs</samp> you should usually specify <samp>-lgcc</samp> as well.
- This ensures that you have no unresolved references to internal GCC
- library subroutines.
- (An example of such an internal subroutine is <code>__main</code>, used to ensure C++
- constructors are called; see <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Collect2.html#Collect2"><code>collect2</code></a> in <cite>GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) Internals</cite>.)

- <dt><code>-static-pie</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dpie"></a>
- <p>Produce a static position independent executable on targets that support
- it. A static position independent executable is similar to a static
- executable, but can be loaded at any address without a dynamic linker.
- For predictable results, you must also specify the same set of options
- used for compilation (<samp>-fpie</samp>, <samp>-fPIE</samp>, or model
- suboptions) when you specify this linker option.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-pthread</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-pthread-1"></a>
- <p>Link with the POSIX threads library. This option is supported on
- GNU/Linux targets, most other Unix derivatives, and also on
- x86 Cygwin and MinGW targets. On some targets this option also sets
- flags for the preprocessor, so it should be used consistently for both
- compilation and linking.

- <dt><code>-rdynamic</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-rdynamic"></a>
- <p>Pass the flag <samp>-export-dynamic</samp> to the ELF linker, on targets
- that support it. This instructs the linker to add all symbols, not
- only used ones, to the dynamic symbol table. This option is needed
- for some uses of <code>dlopen</code> or to allow obtaining backtraces
- from within a program.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-s</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-s"></a>
- <p>Remove all symbol table and relocation information from the executable.

- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static"></a>
- <p>On systems that support dynamic linking, this overrides <samp>-pie</samp>
- and prevents linking with the shared libraries. On other systems, this
- option has no effect.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-shared</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-shared"></a>
- <p>Produce a shared object which can then be linked with other objects to
- form an executable. Not all systems support this option. For predictable
- results, you must also specify the same set of options used for compilation
- (<samp>-fpic</samp>, <samp>-fPIC</samp>, or model suboptions) when
- you specify this linker option.<a name="DOCF1" href="#FOOT1"><sup>1</sup></a>
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-shared-libgcc</code></dt>
- <dt><code>-static-libgcc</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-shared_002dlibgcc"></a>
- <a name="index-static_002dlibgcc"></a>
- <p>On systems that provide <samp>libgcc</samp> as a shared library, these options
- force the use of either the shared or static version, respectively.
- If no shared version of <samp>libgcc</samp> was built when the compiler was
- configured, these options have no effect.
- </p>
- <p>There are several situations in which an application should use the
- shared <samp>libgcc</samp> instead of the static version. The most common
- of these is when the application wishes to throw and catch exceptions
- across different shared libraries. In that case, each of the libraries
- as well as the application itself should use the shared <samp>libgcc</samp>.
- </p>
- <p>Therefore, the G++ driver automatically adds <samp>-shared-libgcc</samp>
- whenever you build a shared library or a main executable, because C++
- programs typically use exceptions, so this is the right thing to do.
- </p>
- <p>If, instead, you use the GCC driver to create shared libraries, you may
- find that they are not always linked with the shared <samp>libgcc</samp>.
- If GCC finds, at its configuration time, that you have a non-GNU linker
- or a GNU linker that does not support option <samp>--eh-frame-hdr</samp>,
- it links the shared version of <samp>libgcc</samp> into shared libraries
- by default. Otherwise, it takes advantage of the linker and optimizes
- away the linking with the shared version of <samp>libgcc</samp>, linking with
- the static version of libgcc by default. This allows exceptions to
- propagate through such shared libraries, without incurring relocation
- costs at library load time.
- </p>
- <p>However, if a library or main executable is supposed to throw or catch
- exceptions, you must link it using the G++ driver, or using the option
- <samp>-shared-libgcc</samp>, such that it is linked with the shared
- <samp>libgcc</samp>.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static-libasan</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dlibasan"></a>
- <p>When the <samp>-fsanitize=address</samp> option is used to link a program,
- the GCC driver automatically links against <samp>libasan</samp>. If
- <samp>libasan</samp> is available as a shared library, and the <samp>-static</samp>
- option is not used, then this links against the shared version of
- <samp>libasan</samp>. The <samp>-static-libasan</samp> option directs the GCC
- driver to link <samp>libasan</samp> statically, without necessarily linking
- other libraries statically.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static-libtsan</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dlibtsan"></a>
- <p>When the <samp>-fsanitize=thread</samp> option is used to link a program,
- the GCC driver automatically links against <samp>libtsan</samp>. If
- <samp>libtsan</samp> is available as a shared library, and the <samp>-static</samp>
- option is not used, then this links against the shared version of
- <samp>libtsan</samp>. The <samp>-static-libtsan</samp> option directs the GCC
- driver to link <samp>libtsan</samp> statically, without necessarily linking
- other libraries statically.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static-liblsan</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dliblsan"></a>
- <p>When the <samp>-fsanitize=leak</samp> option is used to link a program,
- the GCC driver automatically links against <samp>liblsan</samp>. If
- <samp>liblsan</samp> is available as a shared library, and the <samp>-static</samp>
- option is not used, then this links against the shared version of
- <samp>liblsan</samp>. The <samp>-static-liblsan</samp> option directs the GCC
- driver to link <samp>liblsan</samp> statically, without necessarily linking
- other libraries statically.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static-libubsan</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dlibubsan"></a>
- <p>When the <samp>-fsanitize=undefined</samp> option is used to link a program,
- the GCC driver automatically links against <samp>libubsan</samp>. If
- <samp>libubsan</samp> is available as a shared library, and the <samp>-static</samp>
- option is not used, then this links against the shared version of
- <samp>libubsan</samp>. The <samp>-static-libubsan</samp> option directs the GCC
- driver to link <samp>libubsan</samp> statically, without necessarily linking
- other libraries statically.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-static-libstdc++</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-static_002dlibstdc_002b_002b"></a>
- <p>When the <code>g++</code> program is used to link a C++ program, it
- normally automatically links against <samp>libstdc++</samp>. If
- <samp>libstdc++</samp> is available as a shared library, and the
- <samp>-static</samp> option is not used, then this links against the
- shared version of <samp>libstdc++</samp>. That is normally fine. However, it
- is sometimes useful to freeze the version of <samp>libstdc++</samp> used by
- the program without going all the way to a fully static link. The
- <samp>-static-libstdc++</samp> option directs the <code>g++</code> driver to
- link <samp>libstdc++</samp> statically, without necessarily linking other
- libraries statically.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-symbolic</code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-symbolic"></a>
- <p>Bind references to global symbols when building a shared object. Warn
- about any unresolved references (unless overridden by the link editor
- option <samp>-Xlinker -z -Xlinker defs</samp>). Only a few systems support
- this option.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-T <var>script</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-T"></a>
- <a name="index-linker-script"></a>
- <p>Use <var>script</var> as the linker script. This option is supported by most
- systems using the GNU linker. On some targets, such as bare-board
- targets without an operating system, the <samp>-T</samp> option may be required
- when linking to avoid references to undefined symbols.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-Xlinker <var>option</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-Xlinker"></a>
- <p>Pass <var>option</var> as an option to the linker. You can use this to
- supply system-specific linker options that GCC does not recognize.
- </p>
- <p>If you want to pass an option that takes a separate argument, you must use
- <samp>-Xlinker</samp> twice, once for the option and once for the argument.
- For example, to pass <samp>-assert definitions</samp>, you must write
- <samp>-Xlinker -assert -Xlinker definitions</samp>. It does not work to write
- <samp>-Xlinker "-assert definitions"</samp>, because this passes the entire
- string as a single argument, which is not what the linker expects.
- </p>
- <p>When using the GNU linker, it is usually more convenient to pass
- arguments to linker options using the <samp><var>option</var>=<var>value</var></samp>
- syntax than as separate arguments. For example, you can specify
- <samp>-Xlinker -Map=output.map</samp> rather than
- <samp>-Xlinker -Map -Xlinker output.map</samp>. Other linkers may not support
- this syntax for command-line options.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-Wl,<var>option</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-Wl"></a>
- <p>Pass <var>option</var> as an option to the linker. If <var>option</var> contains
- commas, it is split into multiple options at the commas. You can use this
- syntax to pass an argument to the option.
- For example, <samp>-Wl,-Map,output.map</samp> passes <samp>-Map output.map</samp> to the
- linker. When using the GNU linker, you can also get the same effect with
- <samp>-Wl,-Map=output.map</samp>.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-u <var>symbol</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-u"></a>
- <p>Pretend the symbol <var>symbol</var> is undefined, to force linking of
- library modules to define it. You can use <samp>-u</samp> multiple times with
- different symbols to force loading of additional library modules.
- </p>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>-z <var>keyword</var></code></dt>
- <dd><a name="index-z"></a>
